The two young animals play with a baobob fruit and ends up rolling into the Outlands. Bunga suggests they retrieve it but Kion is hesitant to do so because Simba forbids anyone from going there. Bunga, being the stubborn honey badger he is, ventures into the Outlands and is followed by Kion. They soon run into the hyenas (slightly older than them but still cubs), and Bunga, assuming them to be friendly, asks if they know any games. They attack the two, when Simba manages to find them in time and chases off the threat. Kion and Bunga apologize for disobeying him, but Simba is glad they are okay and takes them home, telling them hyenas are not to be trusted.

​​​​​​ and at the end of the movie, she does look a lot heavier around the midsection at the end of the movie. Meaning she's either pregnant, has just given birth, or is nursing. I'm going with the first option because that explains why Scar doesn't recognize Janja. And of course there's Janja's friends who are the same age as him, and Nuka, Kovu, and Vitani. So pretty much, Scar denied food to expectant mothers and cubs. Wow! Jerk!

Anyway, back to the theory as how Kion and Janja met, probably they met when they were really little and decided to play together. Janja probably snuck out on Shenzi, as did Kion with Simba. So the two cubs, being smol pure children, wrestled around for a bit before one of them got hurt and then their parents intervened.
