Chapter 2

Lion-o was sleeping in bed and was awoken by crying. He got up to check on Liosia. He saw crying and squirming. He picked her up. He noticed she was cold. He saw the buttons on her footed onesie came undone. So he buttoned it back up and made sure it was secure. "There, there Liosia I know it's not comfortable sleeping while you're cold," he said.

Liosia settled down and went to sleep. Lion-o placed her back in the bassinet and went back to bed.

She started to cry again about an hour later. Lion-o figure this time it was for a bottle. Sure enough he was right she drank down the formula he warmed up.

He burped her after she finished eating. He placed her back in her bassinet. She was sleeping again.

Lion-o was woken up again and he changed Liosia's diaper. Then went to back to bed.

Mum-ra woke up and looked into the cauldron. He saw the mighty lord of the Thundercats in a rocking chair and he was rocking it and he was humming. He wondered why the mighty Lion-o was up this late rocking in a rocking chair.

Then he saw a little bundle in a yellow blanket. "There, there Liosia, now go back to sleep my little princess, sleep," Lion-o said.

Mum-Ra got a good look at the bundle and what he saw was a baby girl lion Thunderian. She had a strong resemblance to Lion-o from what he heard Lion-o say it must be his daughter. "Ancient spirits of evil tell me about this Thunderbaby is it Lion-o's own flesh and blood? And how can use it against Lion-o and the Thundercats?" Mum-ra said.

"Mum-Ra this baby girl is Lion-o's daughter his own flesh and blood. His wife he eloped with met death when her ship filled with an unknown gas. She vanished after she sent her baby away. Lion-o found her and is now raising her on his own. You must take the child and raise her to believe the Thundercats caused the death of her family and believe you saved her life and have her best intentions at heart. This way she won't become a Thundercat," the spirit said.

"Yes my masters," Mum-Ra said.

Lion-o placed Liosia back in her bassinet and went back to sleep. Then first light came less then ten minutes later. Lion-o got up and walked into the bathroom and splashed cold water in his face to wake himself up. Liosia was still sleeping.

Lion-o sat down to breakfast. He looked exhausted the other Thundercats noticed. Snarf decided to take over Liosia's care for a while so Lion-o could get some sleep.

Lion-o came in a bit later. "Hey Lion-o feel better after your nap?" Panthro asked.

"Yes, I do," Lion-o said.

He came up to Snarf who was rocking little Liosia. He took her into his arms. "Hello Princess daddy is back," he said.

Things were just getting started.
