Mtoto!
Where'd you go?

Mtoto?

Here I am!

Okay, you got us!

Wait.

Do you hear that?

I don't hear anything.

Are those birds?

A lot of birds.



You don't think they're
vultures, do you?

Vultures?

You know who we need
right now?

Lion Guard, this way!

Hi, Beshte!

Hey, Mtoto!

That's an un-Bunga-lievable
bunch of birds!

Yeah. I wonder
what's going on.

Look at that!

I've never seen so many
birds in one place.

So what are they
all doing here?

I bet Ono could tell us.

- But I don't know where he is.
- I'm right here!

I got us a spot
right in front!



In front of what?

Let's find out.

Can you believe
he's really back?

After all this time?

- Who?
- Hadithi!

Who-dithi?

Hadithi?
The legendary eagle?

Every bird in the Pride Lands
has heard of him!

Uh, Ono,
we aren't birds!

But you don't have to be a
bird to have heard of Hadithi.

Creator of the Hadithi Spin?

Three mid-air loops
and a corkscrew?

I think.

I've always wanted to ask
Hadithi exactly how it goes.

And now I can.

If I can get up
the nerve, that is.

He's kind of my idol.

He sounds Poa, Ono.

Oh, he is.

And smart.

They say whenever
he speaks,

nuggets of wisdom fall
from his mouth.

Pfft! Big deal.

Nuggets fall outta
my mouth all the time.

Greetings, my friends.

Say something wise, Hadithi!

The higher you fly,

the more they'll
look up to you.

Ahhhh!
Ooooooh!

"The higher you fly, the
more they'll look up to you."

That is so deep.

Really? Seems kind of
obvious to me.

Bunga, shh!

Ono really likes this guy!

Isn't he amazing?

Oh, yeah!

Hey, Ono.

Let's ask him about
his spin thingie.

Yo, Hadithi!

Bunga!

You can't just talk
to Hadithi.

He's the Raven Rescuer
from Red Rocks.

The Starling Savior
at Summer Springs.

Don't forget the Guardian
of the Great Egret Escape.

Oh, I would never...

Uh, Bunga?

Is Hadithi
actually talking to me?

Indeed I am,
young egret.

You seem to know
a lot about me.

Oh, I do, Hadithi.
Sir.

In fact,
I would have to say I'm your

- biggest fan?
- My biggest fan?

Are you sure, young egret?

As you can see,
I have many.

Thank you so much!

You're the wind
beneath my wings!

But you may just be
my biggest fan after all.

Perhaps.

But don't forget.

You have fans all over the Pride Lands.

King Simba. Queen Nala.

- You honor me with your presence.
- We're glad your travels

have brought you back
to the Pride Lands, Hadithi.

Yes. Your return
has brought great joy

all over the Savannah.

Mom? Dad?

You've heard of Hadithi?

Oh, yes.

Hadithi is a hero to animals
throughout the Pride Lands.

We all know, Hadithi is a bird
who never thinks of himself.

Especially when
an animal needs help.

When a hero like Hadithi
returns to the Pride Lands,

it is important for us
to mark the occasion.

And this is why we'd like
to honor you at Pride Rock

with a Royal Mud
Print ceremony.

A Royal Mud Print ceremony?
For me?

A Royal Mud Print ceremony!

Un-Bunga-lievable!

What's a Royal
Mud Print ceremony?

Hadithi will press
his talons into wet mud!

When it dries, his prints
will be preserved forever

alongside those
of other heroes!

I've seen those prints!

But I've never
seen the ceremony.

I can't think of
anyone who deserves it more.

And as guest of honor,

it is tradition that you
share your great knowledge

with a younger member
of the Pride lands.

Now, who should it be?

Dad, over here.
Him! Him!

Ah, perhaps, young Ono.

Me?

Very well.
If that's your tradition.

Is there anything
else you need?

Oh, that's very kind
of you, King Simba.

But, I don't need much.

Very well.

Although, uh,
speaking of tradition,

as guest of honor,

I assume that you'll be building
me the traditional ceremonial nest?

The ceremonial nest?

Hmm. I've never
heard of that.

But we've also never had
a mud print ceremony

for an eagle before.

That's true.

Birds do these things
differently.

The Lion Guard
would be honored

to build the traditional
ceremonial nest!

Uh... Wouldn't we?

Uh...

Sure.
Honored.

Then we shall see you at
the clearing by Pride Rock

just before sundown
for the ceremony.

Thank you, Lion Guard,
for your kind offer.

Aw, what's a little
favor among heroes?

I assume you know how to use
the proper leaves

- for the nest.
- The proper leaves?

In keeping with tradition,

the ceremonial nest
should be made of the leaves

from the top of the tallest
tree in the land.

Seriously?

Well, I don't just make up
these traditions.

It makes sense, the fronds
at the top are the softest.

Fit for a hero.

Exactly, Ono.

Maybe you do know
what you're talking about.

Oh, uh, I do?

Of course, you do, Ono.

And while Ono spends
time with Hadithi,

the rest of us can go
get the special leaves.

- Right, guys?
- Uh...

- Maybe?
- Sure we can!

Just point me
to the tallest tree.

It sure was nice of you to let
Ono stay with Hadithi.

Shouldn't we be doing
more important things

than fetching leaves
from the tallest tree?

For some eagle
we've never heard of?

But my Dad's heard of him.

Yeah!

And he's Ono's biggest hero!

Right. So let's go
find that tallest tree.

The higher you fly, the
more they'll look up to you.

Ah.

That's all well
and good for storks,

but elephants don't fly.

I think what Hadithi
is trying to say is,

we all have challenges
that require us to rise

above ourselves.
To become better than we are.

Ah. Thanks, Ono.

- Wise words, Hadithi.
- Indeed.

Maybe it wasn't such a
good idea to leave Ono behind.

I got this.

Zuka Zama!

Whoo!

A-ha! Whoa!

You guys should come up.

I can see everything
from here!

Just get the leaves
and come down!

But it's the tallest tree
in the Pride Lands.

I can see Pride Rock.

I can see Mekundu Cliffs.

I can see the tallest tree
in the Pride Lands.

Uh-oh.

Did he just say he could
see the tallest tree

- in the Pride Lands?
- Yep.

And everyone will
look up to you.

Ah.

Thank you for coming, everyone.

And don't forget my Royal Mud
Print ceremony tonight at sundown.

Hadithi.

Hadithi!

Hadithi!

Everyone! Back off!

Give Hadithi the respect he deserves!

Thank you, Ono.

- It seems you're a natural, too.
- I am? Me?

In that case, do you think you
could show me the Hadithi Spin?

Well, I'd rather not muss my
feathers so close to the ceremony.

Why don't you show me, and I'll
tell you if you're doing it right.

Uh, okay!

Great!

Okay. Here goes.

Three mid-air loops
and a corkscrew.

Hadithi!

You watching?

I sure am!
Give it all you got.

One.

Two.

Three!

Oof! Ahem!

I, uh...

I think possibly I forgot
to compensate for the wind.

Well, that's your mistake,

the wind always
compensates for me.

Oh...

Never mind.
Try it again.

You'll see, Hadithi,
this time I'll get it!

Almost there, little B.

Ah!

I got an idea.

How about we put the
ceremonial nest right here?

I want to sit right up front.

Hey, birds only.

But we're Hadithi fans too!

It's okay. We'll find
another place to sit.

That was very nice
of you, Mtoto.

I don't mind, Beshte.

After all, you're still
my number one hero!

Huh.

Lot of animals
want to see Hadithi.

Huh. I guess.

So, where is he?

One.

Two. Two and a half loops!

Almost there!

What do you think, Hadithi?

Hadithi?

Oh! Uh.

Oh. Looked great, Ono.

You weren't even watching.

I'm sorry, but I have
to look my best!

It wouldn't do for my fans
to have their hero show up

looking like he just came
in from a windstorm!

Although, it might make
me look even more heroic.

One more try!
I bet I can do it!

I doubt that.
Time to go!

What? But you said
I was a natural.

A natural with the crowd.

You give them what they want.

You play them perfectly.

Play them?

What do you mean?

You always tell them exactly
what they want to hear!

I do?

But, I'm just being honest.

Being honest.

Oh, isn't that interesting.

Hadithi!

Klipspringers in trouble!

On the rocks just below.

Klipspringers are
excellent climbers.

They got up there,
I'm sure they can get down.

I suppose.

I guess you guys will be fine.

Hyenas?

Hadithi!
It's Janja and his clan!

They've got
the klipspringers cornered!

A whole hyena clan?

We can take 'em out
with the Hadithi Spin!

Uh. Oh. Uh, I don't think
you're ready for that, Ono.

And, I wouldn't want
you to get hurt.

Especially
so close to my ceremony.

Speaking of which, come on.

We're going to be late.

But, the hyenas.

Can't keep my fans waiting.

Hadithi? Why're you leaving?

Guess it's up to me.

Look!
Here he comes!

Welcome, Hadithi.

Thank you, King Simba.

Very soft.

Yes, this will do.

Where's Ono?

He's, uh, still trying to
get the Hadithi Spin right.

I'm sure he'll be
along shortly.

Animals of the Pride Lands,

we are fortunate to have a
great hero among us today.

The legendary Hadithi.

As you all know,
Hadithi is a true hero.

A brave bird, who
always answers the call.

When someone needs help,

Hadithi never thinks
of himself.

He thinks of others,
no matter what.

What's the matter,
klipspringers?

No place to go?

Yeah!

Good one!

It's funny 'cause it's true!

Back off, Janja!

Uh-oh.

The Lion Guard?

No.

It's just little Ono.

All by himself.

Ignore him!

You asked for it.

Time for the Hadithi Spin.

- The what?
- The Hadithi Spin!

One.

Two.

Oof!

Oh, no!

It's no use.
I'm stuck.

Ooh, Janja!

You hear that?

Sounds like we're gonna have
klipspringer with a side of Ono!

You go ahead, boys.
I'll round up the main course.

Oh.

And once Hadithi presses
his talon into the mud,

we can all be reminded
of his bravery.

His strength.

And his selflessness.

The sacrifice a true hero
always makes to help others.

And there are few heroes as
true as the one we have here.

Hadithi!

Ready?

Remember,
the higher you fly,

the more they'll look up...

Aw, who am I kidding?

You shouldn't
look up to me!

I'm no hero!

But I know a bird who is!

And he's in trouble!

Ono!

Lion Guard, follow me!

Till the Pride Lands ends...

Lion Guard defend!

Come on.

- There's Ono!
- He's trapped!

I'm on it. Huwezi!

I'd back off if I were you.

What for?

We know you're all alone, Ono.

I wouldn't be so sure
about that!

Uh... Uh-oh.

I don't think he's
all alone no more.

You got that right.

Run!

Let's get you out
from under there.

Don't worry about me, Fuli.

Go help the klipspringers!

You got it.

Amazing.
Even when you're trapped,

you're still more concerned
about others.

I think I could
learn from you.

You're a true hero, Ono.

Thank you, Hadithi.

Sorry I left you
behind, Ono.

Well, I'm sure
you had a good reason.

Ono, it's time you
knew the truth.

The truth?

None of the stories
about me are true.

That day at Misty Falls?

I fell out of the sky.

There's no Hadithi Spin.

There never was.

Yeah. I kind of
figured that out.

Right about the time I crashed
trying to do the Hadithi Spin.

Oh.

But, it doesn't mean
there can't be one now!

Follow me, Hadithi!

Here we go.

Back away, Janja!

How're you going to
stop me, Kion?

I'm between you
and the klipspringers.

Yeah, but, we're between you
and the way off this cliff.

Right.

So? Why would I want to leave?

There's so much here to eat.

Not for long.
Now, Beshte!

Twende Kiboko!

Go, guys! Go!

Come on, klipspringers!
Follow me!

You can't get away that easy!

- Sorry, Janja!
- Cheezi pushed me!

Never mind!
Come on!

Hurry!

Klipspringers! Run!

Fast as you can,
little klippies!

Now!

What?

Whoa!

Come on, Hadithi!

This is fun!

Wait, did he say "Hadithi"?

Yeah.

Poa!

Wow! Look at him go!

I don't know who's more
impressive, Ono or Hadithi!

I do!

Go, Ono!

Yeah! Go, Ono!

Yes. Go, Ono.

Whoa. I don't
feel so good!

I think I'm gonna
lose my lunch!

Fur brain! We all are!

Who was that big guy
with the feathers?

Don't you know nothin'?

That was Hadithi,
the legendary eagle!

We got beat by a legend?

Oh, my gosh.
That's great!

I was supposed to pass
my wisdom on to you.

But instead,

you passed some
wisdom onto me.

You know why, kid?

'Cause you're a natural.

A natural hero.

Way to go, Ono!

Animals of the Pride Lands,
I give you

Ono the egret,

creator of the Ono Spin.
