chapter 1

A white lioness cub named Liosia climbed out of a suspension capsule that also doubled as an escape pod. "Where am I?" She asked. She had been launched out of the ship by her mother. Her mother had told her a lot about her father. They were going to find him. Her mother had been trying to contact him for years.

The mutants saw the child. "She could be useful to us it is not everyday where you can raise an obedient slave." Slithe said.

Then came towards the child. The cub saw the mutants come towards her. She felt nervous as the mutants came towards her. Then Jackalman grabbed her. "Let me go!" She said.

"No way kid!" Slithe said.

Then they took her to castle Plun-darr. They took the cub's dress off and dressed her in sack clothe and rags. "I wanna go home!" Liosia said.

"This you're home now, now get to work!" Slithe said.

Monkian gave her a bucket of water and brush. "Start cleaning the floor you brat!" Monkian said.

Liosia got frightened and started to work. Then started to clean the floor. She was scared to death. The mutants were going to give her more chores.

It took her hours to clean the floors. Liosia was exhausted. Then Vultureman came up to her then gave her more cleaning stuff. "Now clean the bathrooms and the wash the dishes or you will regret it!" He said.

"Yes sir!" She said then ran off to do her work. She cleaned up the bathrooms and started on the dishes. She scrubbed up the dishes and dried them and put them up.

Then she sat down to rest. Jackalman saw and went up to her. "Who told you to stop working?" He growled and hit her.

Liosia started to cower. "Sorry," she said as she rubbed her sore arm. Then Jackalman took her to the stairs.

"Now clean!" Jackalman said.

Liosia continued to work she was tired and hungry. She scared she wanted her mother.

Then Liosia made some mistakes. "For that kid no food today!" Slithe said.

Liosia was frightened, tired and hungry. She was tired from all the work. The mutants really frightened her.

Over the next few days Liosia kept on working. The mutants hardly fed her. She was so hungry. She was often punished by the mutants. They would hit her on regular basis. Poor Liosia was so frightened she wished she was home.

She was wearing a collar that showed she was working for the mutants as a slave. Liosia didn't like the collar it made her feel like a pet. Her clothes were replaced by sack clothe. She sometimes saw the mutants eating as she cleaned and worked. Just looking at the food made her stomach growl it reminded her of her hunger. She was always living in fear.

She often heard them talking about the Thundercats. Her mother spoke of them and if they were here they could help her. Her friend a bird came up to her after she finished writing a letter to the Thundercats. "This message is for the Thundercats take it to them." she told it and the bird flew away with the message in it's mouth. Liosia hoped the Thundercats will get the message because she didn't want to be here anymore.
