AN: Okay. Here come Episode 2. At this point, I like to say sorry for writing errors there be

But please enjoy and reviews me to know is good.


In shrine was a tense mood. Everyone looked on Leona. She didn't respond to anything. Lion-o still tried to wake her up, but nothing. Even Selene and Fen were worried. Animal guides seem to talk what to do, but they seem to know what is going to be the reaction if they tried to wake her by water, by a bad smell, by biting or by electrifying her.

"Is she going to be okay?" asked Kat.

"We don't know..." said Fen.

Rose was looking by aside until she noticed something on Leona. On her side actually. She came close to see it well. When she was about touch it a hand grabs hers in second. Everyone first scared before Leona started to open her eyes and take a deep breath.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked.

"With us? You're the one was like dead few minutes ago," said Fen.

"Was I?"

"What's that on your side?" asked Rose.

"Nothing!" said Leona while she gets up and tried to cover it. "One question, what you do here?"

"I came here with Lou, but I went first tell villagers to prepare just in case for shadow army." said Rose.

"Okay, good." said Leona.

"Why queen called you princess?" asked Wilykat.

"Long story. I'll tell you later" said Leona.

"Are you sure you're okay?" asked Tygra.

"I'm fine," she said. "Don't we have bigger problems to handle here? Shadow queen... No, Elea has four moon orbs, moon water, and Kit to have the last orb."

"I can't believe she did that to us," said Raf. Everyone was quiet for while for what just happened. But for Leona situation didn't seem to be new to her.

"I'll go there." she said.

"Leona, Don't be a fool..." said Selene.

"Well, you can't go there either. I go get Kit and Orthrus out of there."

"You'll get killed."

"I have survived from the worse." said Leona and start to go up by stairs.

"We go with you." said Cheetara.

"NO!" yelled Leona and hit the wall.

Everyone stayed quiet by that. Her punch went through the wall. While she took it out, her hand had many cuts.

"I go alone. Ruth, inform west guardians for help and get them ready for a fight."

"Why me?"

"Could you tell them about shadow queen?" asked Leona. In that, Ruth knew what she meant.

"I'll do it."

In that Leona keep going up while Qui followed her. Lion-o stayed looking after her. Something was up.

"What's wrong with her?" asked Tygra.

"It's because what happened to her a few days ago." said Selene.

"What you mean?" asked Panthro.

"Rule number 3. Every defender deals his/hers own race issues," said Rose.

"Own race?" asked Cheetara.

"Yes. Like here it's up us to take care wolves and foxes, Leona is up on everything that has to do with cats. Reptile defender on reptiles, bird defender on birds, etc." said Selene.

"What about it?"

"Have you ever asked; how a cat gets into the pit in dog kingdom?" said Fen. Thundercats stayed quiet

"Dog kingdom? Pit? You mean..." asked Panthro.

"Where Lion-o and Wilykat?" asked Cheetara. In that everyone looked around. Lion-o and Wilykat were gone. And so was Lou. Fen and Selene looked their animal guides which first tried look they knew nothing, but then they sigh for defeat because they do KNOW everything that happened.

"They went after her, with Lou," said Fen, once Sue told him.


While Leona keeps walking back to the palace of Lykos, Lion-o and Wilykat followed with Lou in a good distance. Lion-o already told Kat that only way to get there is by an animal guide, defenders cape or cover self with mud. So, Kat put some mud on him. Not much, but not less either.

"Something is worrying her..." said Lion-o quietly.

"How you know?" asked Wilykat.

"She always acts like nothing isn't wrong when she knows something bad is going on. Like...back at Thundera."

"So, she doesn't like to tell something. That doesn't mean she can ask help."

"Ever since she came live in Thundera she hasn't asked." heard a voice. Lion-o and Kat hide because they thought someone was behind them and Leona could have heard it, but there wasn't any.

"It's me. Down here." heard again. They looked and it turns out to be Lou.

"Cool. You can talk,"said Kat quietly.

"Of course we can talk. How else we tell defenders of everything."

"But isn't it that only defenders can hear you?" asked Lion-o.

"Yes, but we also know all about stones too. Even that, by the spirit stone we can speak to others too."

"Spirits stone..." wondered Lion-o and look the stone. Right, then they heard a familiar voice.

"I know you're there," said Leona. In that Lion-o and Wilykat came out from hiding. "What're you doing here?"

"We..."

"I want to find my sister," said Wilykat.

"It's too dangerous."

"I don't care! She is my sister! Should you know it better!"

Leona stayed quiet on that. She knew the story of kids. She found them, while she lived in Thundera. She was passing by in allies of Thundera when she found them. She always came to look on them and give some money, so they won't steal.

She knew there's no way to change Kat's mind. Then she looked on Lion-o.

"Look... I know how much this means to you, but I want help," he said to her. Leona looked on Qui and then on Lou. Both looked back at her since they know what has to be done. She sighed on this. It was hard to say was it by defeat or because she really didn't want this to happen.

"Fine. Let's go" she said. So they continue their way into Palace of Lykos.
