chapter 2

A couple of weeks later Lion-o was out enjoying the nice summer air. He heard someone coming and turned and saw Hachiman. "Oh hello Hachiman," Lion-o said.

"Hello Lion-o, how are you today?' Hachiman asked.

"I'm fine," Lion-o said.

"How is your wife Liosella?" Hachiman asked.

"She's doing well," Lion-o said.

"Good," Hachiman said.

"Things have been going well for us, especially now," Lion-o said.

"Why is that Lion-o?" Hachiman asked.

"Because Liosella is going to have a baby," Lion-o said.

"You're going to be a father how wonderful Lion-o," Hachiman said. "Congratulations," he said.

"Thank you my friend, Liosella is at cat's lair, she's relaxing, she doesn't want to go outside today she says it's a little too hot," Lion-o said.

"Well give her my congratulations," Hachiman said.

"I will my friend," Lion-o said.

Soon the Thundercats other Third earth friends heard that their was going to be an heir to the lord of the Thundercats. "A royal Thunderian baby," Nayda said.

"Yes," Tygra said.

"Willa you think we should give the baby a present?' Nayda asked.

"Of course Nayda after all Lion-o is our friend and as are the Thundercats," Willa said.

"You don't have to," Tygra said.

"We want to," Nayda said.

It was pretty exciting. But it didn't bring others joy for the Thundercats.

"Are you sure Monkian?' Slithe asked.

"Yes, Lion-o's wife Liosella is going to have a baby," Monkian said.

"That means their will be an heir to the lord of the Thundercats." Jackalman said.

"This could mean big trouble yes?" Slithe said.

"We must get that baby," Vultureman said.

"That would be easier said than done, because the baby will be born in the spring," Monkian said.

"It's summer now," Jackalman said.

"Which means we have a long wait," Vultureman said.

"When the baby is born we take it yes?" Slithe said.

The other mutants had to agree.

Mum-Ra looked into the cauldron and saw into Cat's lair. "So Lion-o will soon have an heir, this could mean trouble for me, I must take the cub as soon as it's born," Mum-Ra said.

At cat's lair the Thundercats were talking. "This is a very exciting time," Panthro said.

"Yes in the spring there will be a new Thundercat prince," Bengali said.

"Or Princess," Pumyra said.

"It really doesn't matter," Cheetara said.

"Cheetara is right, all that matters if the future heir or heiress to the lord of the Thundercats is born healthy." Lynx-o said.

"You know I feel if Mum-Ra, the mutants and the Lunataks find out they will try to take the baby," Tygra said.

"Lion-o I have that same feeling," Liosella said.

"Don't worry Liosella we will protect our baby and he or she will be safe at cat's lair and all of the Thundercats will make sure of it," Lion-o said.

The others had to agree.
