Welcome back everyone. Enjoy and review.

Alaksandu's Ambition

Alaksandu looked down at the ThunderCats as they left Piyamaradu alone in his garden. Piyamaradu wasn't completely alone there were some attendants to help the blind shaman. Even at the age of nine, Alaksandu was planning his uncle's death! His uncle's, his cousin's… Kill them and in time he'd become the next Chieftain of Evabon!

The ThunderCats could make it easy for him. Just makes fools of them, trick them. Yes, that's what he'd do!

But that would have to wait. He'd have to consult his father Pamba, Piyamaradu's younger brother, if such things were wise.

As he looked down on them, one of the ThunderCats looked up at him. Upon the crumbling battlement he sat upon, Alaksandu could feel the woman's red eyes look into his soul. She knew there was something evil in him, an ambition that would not rest until he had ensured he became Chieftain of the Evabon. Then she walked away and any tense feelings Alaksandu had felt in his spine had left.

Piyamaradu and Ekoto… Those two stood in Alaksandu's way. Little did he know there was a third! A new comer to Wilusa! Had Alaksandu know he would have been quick to get them out of the way!

"What are you looking at, cousin?" Alaksandu turned to see Ekoto beside him. "The ThunderCats? Why do they bother you? Why do any visitors bother you?"

"They just do, Ekoto."

"Although I must admit these ThunderCats are strange. Bodies covered in hair? Two of them having tails while the others don't? I don't trust them they must be some sort of demon! They bring strange weapons! Gard and Dalv had some of the same likeness but I know we can trust them!" Ekoto's trusT in his fellow Evabon made him unaware of Alaksandu's ambition! If Alaksandu were to act now and push Ekoto from the battlement then it would be over then. Yet he feared that red-eyed ThunderCat woman. If he acted now then it would… It didn't matter.

It was faster this way than waiting till he and Ekoto were adults.

Do it now… Do it now!

It was time for Ekoto to take the plunge!
