chapter 1
Aika was the youngest of three children of Claudus. Her brother was was going to be lord of the Thundercats will her sister was going to marry a rich man from another part of the planet and be a dignitary.
But Aika didn't have a place. She felt very much alone. She felt free doing her own thing which she normally did. Today she decided to travel in her ship for a small joy ride. Then she saw a samurai on a robotic horse pass by and go to his home planet.
She was amazed by him and fell in love. When she got home she drew a picture of him. Her father saw the picture. "Who is this?" he asked.
"A samurai I saw today." Aika answered. "Isn't he just handsome?" she asked.
"I see you love him but I don't know if he'll love you." Claudus said.
"But father my two siblings have place I don't I must know my place maybe mine is with him!" Aika said.
"I know you wish to find your place my daughter. But I don't know if it is with him." Claudus said.
"That's right you don't know, but we won't know ever but I only wish to know." Aika said.
Claudus decided he needed to test his daughter and the human samurai. Jaga saw the picture drawn of the samurai and he comes from the nearby planet of the red sun. He agreed to do something to test Aika and the man to see if they belong together.
He was going to put a spell on Aika to make her a human women. If this man soon loves Aika as much as she loves him by three months and gives her the kiss of true love she will stay with him. But if she fails she will return to being a Thunderian and go back to Thundera. But once he loves her for who she and accepts the test after being told the truth and loves her kisses her then she will have her place.
Claudus hoped this would work and his daughter will find her place now matter where she is or what she'll be. He just wants her to be happy.
He took Aika to Jaga so he could preform his spell. "You think it might help me find my place?" Aika asked.
"I believe so, now let's send you there. You can only tell him the truth once he comes to love you if his love is true you will stay and we will come to congratulate you. But If he doesn't accept it you will become a Thunderian again and return home" Jaga said.
"Okay," Aika said.
Jaga cast the spell and Aika was turned into a human woman and was sent to the planet of the red sun.
Aika woke up and saw she was a human women in a pool of water. Then she noticed something she was naked!She found torn sail and wrapped it around her body. "How embarrassing." she said.
A man she didn't recognized came up. "Hello," he said.
"Hi," she said.
"What is a lovely lady like you doing out here by herself?" he asked.
"Mind your own business!" Aika said.
He grabbed her arm. "Let go!" she said and kicked him.
"OUCH!" he said.
Aika ran as fast as she could. "Come back here!" the man said.
Aika saw the samurai she saw from her spaceship. "What's wrong miss you look frightened," he said.
"A man he's chasing me, I afraid he might," she said.
"Get behind me." the samurai said.
The man came up to them. "Leave her alone can't you see that she is frightened and lost?" the samurai said.
"I will fight you for that girl!" the man said.
"It is dishonorable to fight for a women like she is a prize. No leave, and don't bother her again!" the samurai said.
The samurai stood his ground and unsheathed his sword. He stood to protect Aika.
The man frightened ran off. "That shows only cowards will do foolish things like that." the samurai said.
He turned to Aika. "Are you alright miss?" he asked.
"Yes, I am Aika." she said.
"I am Hachiman," the samurai said.
"Thank you," she said.
"No need for thanks, you better be heading home now." Hachiman said.
"My home is very far from here. It will be hard to get to by means of walking." Aika said.
"I will help you get home, but for now we need to get you some clothes and you can stay at my house." Hachiman said.
"Thank you," Aika said.
So Hachiman took Aika to town and helped her purchase some clothes because she had no money.
She saw his house was a bit messy. "I can do cleaning for you while I stay." Aika said.
"But you are my guest." Hachiman said.
"True but I want to help." Aika said.
"I will pay you for it so you can have some money." Hachiman said.
"Thanks," Aika said.
So arrangements were made now Hachiman and Aika will get to know one another and hopefully share true love.
