Queens Blade Thundera

ESKK: I will warn you all right now there is a good chance this chapter will be long like the longest yet since it melds together three Thundercats Episodes and one Queens Blade Episode so I can save time. Anyway all ye who wish to hear the story of the Rise of New Thundera and its great rulers the Thundercats. Now then let the gates of story be open! Leave a review on your way out.

Announcement: Ok for every reviewer mainly guests who keep asking me to add Melona to the harem I will say this… I will NOT add her to the Harem. I already added like two girls I didn't originally have plan for being part of the harem. Now my reason being is that I don't really like Melona and don't really like the whole slime girl thing at all. So please for the love of god stop asking me to add girls because I will not add anymore. I will also post this announcement at the end so you get the message.

(Start Chapter 10)

The Thundertank was driving through the fields as they arrived on the original road to the Queen's Capital since they had originally planned on this route if it wasn't for the detour to Steel Mountains, Berbil Village, and the Tank Breaking down between the two and needless to say they were making great time. In the front seat was Cattleya and Risty as Risty was deep in thought. She knew Leon stood a chance in the tournament training under Alleyne but even then it was a small one. Leina shouldn't even enter because if she does she might very well die. Risty knew Leon needed to become King so he can revive Thundera but to do that he needed all their help. Plus it didn't really matter if Leina entered Leon with his little harem at his side has the highest chance as long as someone is able to defeat Damian in the event he decides to enter.

Risty knew that the competition was stronger this year than any year before and Leon was the best candidate for a new Gainos since she had seen what Leon had done even for people he barely knew. In Risty's mind Leon didn't care about the Law of the Land if anything Leon cared about his own law, the law of the heart do what your heart tells you and always hold your honor and dreams. Risty saw what needed to be done and turned to Cattleya.

"Cattleya I know we're on a tight time table but we've already made great time, can we stop up ahead, I need to take care of something real quick." Risty said as Cattleya looked as she saw the look in Risty's eyes before agreeing.

"Alright." Cattleya said as she didn't want to over tax her tank.

(In the back)

Leon was trying to read the language here in Gainos with Leina's help as Leon used the excuse of his land had a completely different language in writing so Leina and Alleyne had offered to teach him these lands language. As they studied they soon felt the tank stop as they wondered what was going on before the back door opened and from it Risty came in. "Everyone off we need to discuss something especially involving Leon and Leina." Risty said with a serious voice as she knew what she was about to do might ruin the relationship she currently has with Leon and the harem but it had to be done.

Leon and Leina looked at each other for a moment before they and everyone walk out of the Thundertank, then quickly do some screech out a bit as riding in the thundertank does give a cramp feeling on their bodies.

Risty stood straight and waited for everyone to be done as Leon look to Risty and asked, "So what going on Risty that you want to say that involves me and Leina?"

Everyone gather around as Risty begin to say, "Let me be straight with you, during our journey I've always take notice of things and the people around as first thing I like to say, Leon maybe the best chance of winning the Queens' blade against Damian."

No one could argue with that as people seen what Leon can do and those who has seen what Damian can do as well they would not dare stand in the way as Nowa said, "What is the point of this if we know already?"

"Nowa 30 points of not understand the situation, "Alleyne said as then she turn to Risty and give a nod to continue as the bandit said to the group, "Leon is strong, but there would be still people in between him and Damian and the only way he can make it through everything if were all strong enough to do so as well… But I believe one of us isn't ready to fight for him, let alone fight in the Queen's blade."

As everyone wonder what she mean, only two people knew what Risty means as the first one to know is Alleyne as she knows everyone else combat skills, as she sees who the strongest, she also knew who the weakest, and the other people was Leon as when Risty did say his and Leina name, she already went through him and the person Risty is talking about, as both Alleyne and Leon both look to… Leina.

Risty saw the look on Leon face and who he is looking too, even Saw Alleyne as the elven women knew what Risty is going with this as Alleyne said, "And that someone is Leina, correct?"

Leina is surprise by this as she wonder why she said that and but then what hit her hard is what Risty said to everyone as she says, "That right, Leina should not fight in the Queen's Blade."

Leina eyes widen to that as Leon step up and said, "Now hold on, let not jump the… horse here." Leon said as he would have said 'Gun' but he remember that doesn't exist in this world.

"Leina is different, but that don't mean she's not strong, as everyone have their strength and weaknesses," Leon said but then Alleyne put a hand on his shoulder and said, "60 points as you do have a point, it's not what Risty is talking about my husband."

Leina is shock, as Leon maybe trying to support her, not everyone would agree to what he said, even shock to her harem sister.

"What do you two mean, I can hold my own in a fight," Leina said as Risty said, "Maybe against those dark creature, but in a Queen's blade match, you would most likely to die. You saw what happen to your sister in the last match, she lost and badly against someone who stronger than her and would mostly would have killed her, I mean is there a battle you fought and won on your own?"

Leina try to think as she remember against Tomoe, but Menace was controlling her and might have given her strength a boost, then she thought of the fight with Melona but she would have died if it wasn't for Leon and Risty help and only beaten the slime girl by tricking her and gotten her to explode, then she thought to Airi as she may have gotten lucky by knocking her weapon out of her hand and then the wrath losing her power with the vanishing of her clothing and at the end leave her with a cut at her chest and might have died if she have bleed out with no one to help her.

Leina try hard and think but nothing came to mind, other than one thing, as she took out the coin that Risty have given to her some time ago and never really gave it back to her, as then she throw the coin to her as Risty caught it in her hand.

"Is this?" Risty asked as he recognized the coin that she had given Leina.

"Yes it's the coin you had given me that time. The very same coin, I've been trying to return it to you ever since." Leina said as she wasn't going to back down. She never intended to fight in the Queens Blade but if Damian or even Arlene became the rulers of Gainos no one would be able to stop them.

"Ok your point?" Risty asked as Leina looked.

"I've gone through a lot to get to this point and if Leon is going to fight in the Queens Blade Tournament then I want to be there by his side even after he wins, I want to be his queen because I care for him very deeply." Leina said as she looked to Risty. "But even if he doesn't win as long as Damian or Arlene are defeated then we won't have to worry about either of them being Gainos new rulers. Even if Leon doesn't become King or none of us are able to become Queen we can travel together and revive Thundera with our own two hands." Leina said as Leon couldn't help but smile to her.

Back in Leon's world he never had hopes of finding a girlfriend hell he never had hopes of even getting married. After all who would want a nerd who runs his mother's comic book store and had given said store to his aunt and uncle and their family when they needed money and income. Leon in his world considered himself pathetic, but here he was someone who was great a hero and he even found love here even though it would seem like a teen boy's harem dream come true. "So you return this to me, great now you should head home." Risty said as she turned away from Leina.

"Wait what?!" Leon called shocked to see this.

"What? I never had the chance to thank you for saving me from Melona when we first met so now you're just telling me to run home!?" Leina called shocked to hear this.

"Yeah... as far as I see what use is a Queen to her King if she can't fight and defend as well as her king can, if anything she would be nothing more than someone who would just be shrugged off in the history books in favor of the King who rules and be seen as nothing more than the mother to the Kings heir." Risty said as she clenched her fists. "That's why... I won't allow Gainos to have a weak Queen for its King." Risty said before turning to Leina. "So run home and forget about Leon after all you can't protect him since he's always the one protecting you like a shield." Risty said as she basically told Leina she wasn't worthy of Leon as the young Lord clenched his fists.

Leon was about to jump in but Alleyne put her hand on Leon's shoulder causing him to look as she turned her head to him telling him he shouldn't intervene. "Maybe if Leon loses and defeats Damian and Arlene he will come back for you and together you can rule the Vance lands or even rebuild Thundera but right now we need to take down Damian and Arlene and we're only as strong as our weakest link and that's you." Risty said as Leina glared.

"Then fight me let me prove myself!" Leina called as Risty glared at her.

"And for what reason?" Risty asked as Leina looked.

"The Queens Blade of course." Leina said as Risty smirked.

"Alright... but let's make it interesting if I win Leon's mine I get to be his queen while you end up the lover or mistress." Risty challenged as Leon saw this.

"Wait you can't do that!" Leon called as soon Marianne was heard again.

"Actually she can." Marianne said surprising the group which they yelped as she was literally in the middle of the group and no one even saw her walk by.

"Is it bad that I'm starting to get use to her antics?" Leon asked as he looked to Marianne as she pulled out the Eye of Thundera Instruction manual which Leon saw closely as the book cover looked more like a wrap used in schools to protect the book. 'Wait a minute.' Leon thought as he wondered if that book Marianne was holding was actually THAT Book from the TV Show.

"What do you mean Risty can challenge Leina?" Cattleya asked as she looked to them.

"Simple really see normally for a King the only one allowed to challenge the Sword of Omens Holder is one of the same bloodline in the event the current holder prove to be unfit but the Sword of Omens gets the final say. But if a Queen is challenged a fellow pride member or a member of the royal court for the right to rule as queen and marry the current King then the challenge must be answered otherwise the current chosen Queen loses her rank and then the King must choose another other than the one who declined the challenge." Marianne said as she had hoped they would not have to deal with this so soon. "But if the Queen who had lost in battle loses she can challenge the challenger to retake her throne or the winner can give the throne back if she feels the loser deserves it more. But like I said before the Eye of Thundera gets the final say in the matter." Marianne explained as she read the book.

"Hmm so do you accept Leina? Because either way you won't be able to rule by Leon's side in the end." Risty said as Leon saw that Leina was in trouble now, accept the challenge, lose and lose her rank with the chance of retaking it, decline the challenge and lose her rank with no hope of retaking it. As much as Leon hated to say it Leina doesn't have much options available to her so she would have to fight and pray really hard for a miracle.

A cloud floated over the area where the party stand, with everyone focus on what going on, they didn't notice someone within a tree that was nearby them, watching as things unfolds as the ugly truth has come out, with the hiss of a Snake, the Dark elf Echidna watches and see what Leina will do.

Leina didn't say a word as she drew her sword as Tomoe is worry about Leina as she knew Leina isn't the strongest of the group and she could get hurt doing this.

"I've accept your challenge," Leina said as Risty put on her shield taking her time with it, and pull out her mace but left it in default as it just a simple fight to her.

Both of them were ready as Marianne jest to Nanael to start the match, but before she could, the cloud moved out of the way and to the angle of Leina sword and the position of the sun, the light bounce off Leina sword and blinded her as Risty took advantage of it, as Risty rush out to Leina quickly and hit her hard with the mace while giving a roar of a tiger, sending her back into a pillar of rocks.

Leon was about to protest now until Shizuka gotten behind Leon and cover his mouth as he muffle out, 'Hey, what the heck are you doing?!', then Alleyne gotten in front of him and said, "In battle, you do anything it takes to win. Leina must do the same or else she would most likely to fall. If you do so much as help her, then all this is for naught."

With Leon, he didn't want anyone to fight, as why much they do this, as he get they want everyone to be strong but this is pushing it. With the position he's in, he could not do a thing, and even if he could, he did not want to fight any of the girls and only can accept it… for now.

He went relax as Shizuka look to Alleyne to let Leon go or not as the elven women nods and then Leon was release without fuss.

"I don't like this at all," Leon said as Alleyne turn around and said back to him, "You don't have to like it my husband, only accept it."

Leon sighed to his wife as she would win the argument of any kind to this, and only hope that Leina and can it.

(Leina)

Leina try to stand up as with the force of Risty strike with the impacted into the rock did a quick number on her, as she gave her puma like growl as she try to push herself to stand up again, and then Risty was in front of her with the mace pointed in her face as Risty said, "Give up? I thought you were fighting for the Queen's blade and being the Queen."

Leina growl out louder as she push herself more to stand up and then Nanael flew over and she growl like a kitty and said, "Hey you two don't get started without me, at lease let a mistress of the harem be the judge of this fight!"

No one argue with that as Risty shrugs and let the angel do what she want to do as Nanael clear her throat and said, "Now sense you are in the hurry to fight, let the Queen's Blade match begin!"

Summon forth a barrier and let the match start, as Leina finally gotten on her feet and held her sword out, Risty held her mace and raise it up, as she was about to strike Leina down ending the match there and then, as Tomoe could not take it anymore she rush out and use her weapon to deflexed the mace and held a hand at Leina as Tomoe said, "Enough Risty, Stand down!"

Everyone is shocked and Leon pray was answer but he did not know how this could affect the picking of the new Queen as Tomoe stood in between the two fighters and said, "We already know who the victor is."

"Ah… not really as you just disturbed the match to see who would become Leon new Queen, if someone that not a part of the royal court or marked as an ally that stop the match, it became a draw no one win or lose and the situation stay the same," Marianne said as she read over the book again as Leon said, "Wow, talk about your convenient loop holes. I can't tell if you made that up or not"

Marianne close the book and said, "If it's in the book then it's not made up." Leon sighed to Marianne weirdness, and in a way now that Leon think about it, why isn't Tomoe marked as an ally yet, she had been help him and the party for a while now, 'Hm, I'll ask later.'

Leina look to Tomoe and said, "Why are you stopping us Tomoe?"

Tomoe turns to Leina and about to say something until Risty spoken up saying, "This is how you fight for the position of Queen, or even fight in the Queen's blade? Wake up child!"

"From everything you've been through, from fighting monsters and armies with allies literally having to carry your weight, losing a prize match, being mined controlled, and nearly losing your spot to be Leon's Queen the tournament isn't something you are ready for." Risty said as Leon clenched his fist clearly angry. "I think you might be better suited to becoming a homemaker." Risty said as Leon's anger was reaching its current peak. Since this was a dispute between two of his pride members Leon couldn't interfere unless

"I agree that there is truth in what Risty is saying." Tomoe said surprising Leon and Leina. "The Queens Blade Competition is not for one who has yet to fully master there capabilities." Tomoe said as that caused Leina to look away as Leon growled while clenching his had unaware that the Eye of Thundera was glowing.

"And the winner is Risty Benevolent Bandit of the Wild." Nanael called out with a smile on her face as the battle was over as quickly as it started.

That was when a slow (yet Cliché) Clapping was heard as Leon and he group looked and saw Echidna as Leon was wide eyed at this. "GAUH!" He called hiding behind Marianne as out of everyone here Marianne had some karma deserved for her after the mischief she has caused.

"Oh don't be a baby, she won't go dominatrix on you... as long as you're not a masochist." Marianne said as she looked to Leon. "Besides wasn't it her Anti venom that got you and Leina together, as far as I see you owe her for helping your love life." Marianne said as Leon came out.

"Don't bring up her demeanor ok, I don't want to be haunted by nightmares involving her." Leon said as he remembered the nightmare from before when Echidna had went above and beyond as a Dominatrix and even allowed herself to be knocked up so she can force Leon to "Take responsibility." That was probably the scariest nightmare of his life and did not want to relive it.

"Hmm is that any way for the book keeper to act?" Echidna asked knowing what Marianne's book really was as she had spied on the Angel through her snake and saw the book was in fact blank

"Book Keeper? Like a librarian?" Leon asked as he looked to Marianne.

"Well you have good timing, so go and take Leina home the sooner she gets back to the Vance Estate the sooner she can have a head start if Arlene or Damian go world conquest if we lose." Risty said as Echidna smirked at this.

"Because I can't bring myself to do that, when I can consider the other options, there's so much more entertaining," Echidna said as she rather see what Leina would do as if she does see a hidden potential with only a few seeing it.

"It's your job, is it not?" Risty said to her as Echidna smile and said, "Oh my, aren't we blunt? She went through so much to following Leon here, you as well. I would think you would be more appreciative of that."

"If you're a hired dog, be a good dog and do the job you're paid to do," Risty said to the dark elven women.

"As I recall, you're not in a position to give me orders," Echidna said as now they were staring down each other as Leon had a bad feeling about this as he whisper to Marianne, "Is there anything you can do? I'm sort of seeing where this is going and I don't like it."

Leon feeling the attention between the two and if something isn't done they could fight, and with Risty having her mark giving a boost but a minor one as he recall what Marianne told him more about the mark, if it's a life and death battle the mark give a huge boost in strength, but in simple battle just a minor one as the mark does uses more energy, and Leon could sense the snake lady is strong as well, maybe even skilled if she somewhat like Alleyne with the way they acted to each other before.

Marianne shakes her head 'no' as she could not control free will, and emotion is under the list of free will, and even if she could, she could not and would not, as it was not her job to do so, and also its needed for what going to happen next.

After a moment of the share down Echidna pull back as huff a bit as Risty reach for her coin purse and said, "I guess listening to reason is too much to expect from you."

Risty pull out a single coin as she flip it at Echidna, to Leon site as he process the fast moving coin, as he sees one head and the other-

'Snatch!'

Echidna caught in between her finger and she looked at it, for Leon, he didn't know if Risty gave that coin to her on purpose for a reason or not as it was strange to say.

Echidna looked at the coin as she, smiled to it as Risty lean in and said, "Keep it for your trouble."

Echidna took the coin but for some reason somehow it was turn quickly into another Queen's blade fight as Nanael spin around in the air and said, "Fantastic! Straight into round 2. Don't know how I did it, but I'm on a roll. Next on this side we have Echidna the Veteran Mercenary, on the other side we have Risty the Benevolent Bandit of the wild."

As both women pull out their weapon as Echidna pull out a very weird looking sword to Leon as it has many curves on it… like a snake, 'Of course she a snake lady, and so well that red tip doesn't seem to be good ether, is that poison or something freak people out with?' He could not tell a damn thing with that women.

With Risty as she raise her mace and activate the electricity as it sparks out, pointing at Echidna as she said, "The sight of you always did manage to turn my stomach."

Marianne laugh as she, whisper to Leon, "And she always make your stomach let one out in fright." "She does not," Leon whisper back as he let out a small-

'!'

Marianne laugh at Leon misfortune luck of things, as his face gave a blush to that, with Echidna she just smile at him no matter what the reaction with him, she does like messing with people.

Became focus on the fight again as Echidna said, "Really? I never dislike you, your personality was always easy to grasp."

The feeling between the two were getting heavier as Tomoe said, "They really want to kill each other. It's so obvious even Leina sensing it."

Shizuka smile as she said, "look like this would be an interesting match."

Cattleya keep to the thundertank with Rana not wanting to get mix up in this kind of fight, Alleyne and Nowa were way off to the side, as much Alleyne dislike Echidna, she sees they are trying to do something.

Risty was the first time to strike out as she swing her electric mace at her, as Leon expected Echidna to dodge it, she block it and with the two weapon are touching, they are supposed to be conducting but the snake lady didn't look effect, as Leon look to the weapon, he looked closely at the weapon as it seem there was magic to it as it gave a soft light color, anti- magic- wait no, electricity or lightning as Risty mace is technology made by the Berbils.

'Did she knew about Risty weapon… or maybe she plan on using it against me? Another maybe but I not the kind to fight a women like her and she read people well too… so maybe Claudette as her attack power is lightning base. Whatever reason she has that, it seem she is prepared for things,' Leon thought as the watch the match.

Echidna throw off the mace and jump in the air as Risty still try to push through, then she quickly turn around just in time to block dagger that was thrown at her.

'Is she a ninja dark elf too or something? If this goes on… I can't accept anything like this,' Leon thought as his fist tighten, the eye keep pulsing out a light as no one seem to pay attention to another than Marianne as she thought, 'Just a little more of a push.'

Echidna did a nose dive with her sword pointed out as Risty yelled using her strength to block and try to throw off Echidna but it seem she playing around as she did a flips in midair behind Risty.

Leina is shock to see this is how the Queen's blade is and sees how much trouble Risty is getting from Echidna as the dark elven women is not holding back.

The two fighter lock weapon with each other as Risty trying to overpower Echidna and give her a shock but it seem her weapon has the same thing as her shield as she wasn't being effect by the electrified mace once again.

Risty lean in close as she said, "Listen, if Leina enters the Queen's blade she'll likely to windup dead!"

This shock Leina very much, even Leon knew saying that would be too harsh to say, as he get it, Leina is not that powerful in terms of everyone else, but that don't mean people should writer her off as that.

Echidna did look she cares much as she says, "You don't get it, do you? No matter what you say or do, she'll never going to give up, and if she does the Lord might not let her ether."

The two push each other back away from each other as Risty said "It's not about Leon as he find by himself, it's about Leina and you should have made understand what she was getting in sooner."

"I want to see how strong she'll get, but it's not my responsibility to be her mentor," Echidna said to her as Alleyne eyed her at that.

Risty charged at her as she said, "The Queen's Blade competition is not a Game!"

Risty try to smash her hard but Echidna dodge it, and she did again as Risty swing her mace around, but miss and as the dark elven women seem to hover in the air for a moment, she fire a spell of some sort from her sword as it came at Risty.

As things seem to slow down, Leina gasp at what it seem is going to happen as it seem Risty is about to get hurt very bad if that hit her, and Leon ran out at incredible speed that could match Shizuka, as he put on the claw gauntlet and drew the sword of Omen as he shouted, "THUNDERCATS HO!"

The sword extended outward, then time speed up again as Leon came in front of the ball of energy that was shot at Risty and blast it away with his own, as the two hit each other, they exploded in the air canceling each other out as everyone cover their eye by the force made by the explosion.

Echidna landed on the ground as she looked at the lord and smile, with Risty is shock that he came in and save her, as did everyone else, and Leina is glad Risty is alright.

Nanael is shock by this as she wonder why Leon disrupt the fight, with Leon as he held the sword of Omens out and said, "That's enough, both of you. This fight end here!"

The match ended as the barrier vanish, but then the sword of Omen started to glow bright at Leon look to it and said, "What the?"

The sword sent out a current of electricity which made Shock Leon as he yelled out make him let go of the sword as it the sword of Omen came to life on its down as it flip out and landed in the middle of the area.

Everyone is surprise by this, as well Echidna as she never thought she would see a weapon hurt its wielder.

"lord/Leon/Husband!" everyone called as Risty went to his side as Leon held his hand that was holding the sword as she said, "Are you alright? What happen?"

"I… I don't know," Leon said as its true, he never seen the sword act like that before on the show.

Leina is worry for him, as it seem the sword just rejected him for some reason, as Leon recover from the shock, as she shake his hand a bit and held it out to the sword as he said, "Sword of Omens, come to my hand."

The sword didn't respond, not even shake to show it, as Leon is confuse by this, as he walk over to the sword and try to grab it again, only to pull back as the sword gave him a quick zap before he could touch it.

"Is the sword rejecting him?" Alleyne said as she watch as things unfold, as Leon step back from the sword and wave his hand again from the zap and said, "What's going on?"

Soon enough Marianne walk out to the sword itself as she put her hand on it people are worry of what could happen as Nanael came in and said, "Marianne what are you doing?"

The sword glowed again as Marianne reach out and grab it without it hurting her or even shrinking down into dagger form, as for some reason the sword is responding to her.

Leon look to his Guardian angel and said, "Marianne… what happening?"

Marianne turn to Leon as she give him a look as she said, "Your trials has begun."

"Wait my trials?" Leon asked as he was confused.

"What trials?" Alleyne asked as she was curios.

"Basically it's a sort of coming of age time for many young Thunderans, its optional for many but for Royalty especially the Prince you have to take it." Marianne said as she looked to Leon who was shocked.

"Oh this should be interesting." Echidna said as she was intrigued.

"Basically Leon will have to enter the Astral Plains to undergo it. And he has to pass it, if he fails the Sword of Omens will never answer to him again and simply seek out a new master." Marianne said stretching the importance of this.

"Great no pressure." Leon said as Marianne shouldered the sword.

"I'll only wait three days for you two." Risty said as she looked to the two. "You should know the location of the Queens Capital is not that far from here, but time is precious I can't afford to wait for you two for very long, I will only fight you once more in the next three days, Leina, and under the same agreement if you lose then you don't get Leon." Risty said as she wasn't going to allow Leon to be with some weakling whose weight he had to carry. "Even if it is a waste of time." Risty said as she began walking away.

"Wait so this match was called off!?" Nanael called as Marianne then grabbed Leon's shoulder.

"Leon we need to go and prepare, we only have three days so you need to start your trial now, no doubt Echidna will be there by the time we're ready." Marianne said before a halo appeared and transported the two before Leon could retort.

"Well if they are going where I think they're going, I suppose I can meet them there." Echidna said as she took her leave as well.

(Scene Break that Night with Leon)

Marianne had finished the preparations as she had torches, the Sword of Omens stabbed into the ground, the Claw Gauntlet on Leon and her odd book. "Marianne before we start, Echidna... she called you the book keeper." Leon said as Marianne was preparing the ritual.

"Yes she did why?" Marianne asked as she looked to the circle she was preparing.

"Why did she call you that?" Leon asked before Echidna was heard.

"Because she's the keeper of the Book of Omens." Echidna said as Leon yelped as she walked in.

"Yeah I am better then it being on a nearby planet." Marianne said as that confused Leon.

"So you had the book, and you didn't give it to us why?" Leon asked as he looked to Marianne.

"If I did then Heaven would be in danger, the last stone you need is up in the heavens guarded by the Angels, take the book and we can't protect it properly." Marianne said as since the secret was revealed the book she held turned in to its true form, the Book of Omens which surprised Leon.

"Oh so that's interesting." Echidna said as the Book is a powerful artifact holding information on the past, present, and future.

"Ok it's ready." Marianne said as she placed down the book in the circle and waited for Leon. "Now Leon you ready?" Marianne asked as she looked to Leon with a serious look on her face.

"Yeah I guess." Leon said before entering the circle. Once he did the Soul Stone glowed as the Book glowed as was before it sent a beam at Leon knocking him out. Once it did the Eye of Thundera glowed as it began to work on conjunction with the book for Leon's trial.

(With Leon)

Leon came too as he looked around and rubbed his head in pain as he looked around. "Great now I know how Lion-O felt when the book zapped him." Leon said as another voice was heard.

"Wow you don't say, must have hurt for a bit didn't it?" A familiar voice said as Leon was wide eyed thinking it couldn't be possible. Leon looked and was wide eyed as he saw none other than Lion-O of the 2011 series there as this was surprising.

"Lion-o if your here then I must be dreaming." Leon said before looking around and sighing. "Or I died." Leon said before another voice was heard.

"Fear not young Lord you are far from dead." A wizen voice said as Leon looked and saw Jaga's ghost of the 2011 series as well.

Leon sighed and said, "That good, last thing I wanted is to be a floated ghost in… ah where inside the book of omens right?"

"Pretty much, where would you think you were?" Lion-o said as Leon said, "Well it's either that or limbo and I have no idea what limbo is like."

Lion-o could not argue with that sense he didn't know what limbo is ether as Jaga spoken up saying, "Now young lord let us begin your first trial."

"Okay sweet. What first? Strength, speed, cunning?" Leon listed off the trials he remember of and then Lion-o said, "A little early for those. You're going to be doing what happen to me first when I first try to use the book of omens."

Leon look to him and said, "So that means?" Leon though for a moment as Lion-o said to, "You're going to be walking in your ancestor steps, I hope you're ready, because it could get rough, I don't need to tell you what happen if you fail."

"Yea, the book of omens would be lost to me to read and also the Sword of omens as well… wait a moment ancestor? I thought the book of omens record the event of things around it, how can I have an ancestor… if I lived on, ah… another world?" Leon said as Jaga step up to him.

"There is more to your bloodline then you thought young lord as the angel Marianne has not told you the truth," Jaga said as Leon look to him and said, "What truth?"

"That is where you must found out yourself, as you must relive the event that lead you here that happen long ago," Jaga said as he raise his staff and shot out a beam below Leon, as a path open up as Leon fell through as Jaga voice echo to Leon as he said, "Far beyond the skies of Gainos and the reach of your imagination."

Leon fell down into the void of neon light and darkness as a he sees a flash of light that blinded him for a moment as he close his eyes and then the light vanish, as he open his eyes once more, he sees a giant space ship with a pyramid look of it, like in is the series, but with an additional tower on top as well, as he knows that wasn't there in the series.

Flew to the ship as Leon panic as it seem he's going to smash into it as he held up his hand and said, "Whoa!"

But he just pass through it like it wasn't there for him, as Leon his eyes and saw he was inside the ship and said, "Oh yea, I'm like a ghost in this, or observer… ether way I guess."

Soon enough he was entering a huge room in the middle a hologram image shown of the planet or world as he was seeing and then spotted a figure next to a console, as he sees red hair like his own and with cat like figures as Leon could guess, this was Leo, as he enter his body, he felt the shock of it for a moment as he stumble back a bit with Jaga voice speaking to him, "From within the body of Leo you will face the same challenges as he did, and once that done he will show you the truth of your destiny. Good luck young lord."

Leon/Leo took a moment to adjust to everything and said, "Okay… follow the steps."

Leon/Leo look to the console and start to push a few thing to see image like he seen in the show, but with a few key different to the image of the world he is looking at, and next he would see the image of the war stone, but something weird pop up, an image of an angel as Leon sees and swear it almost looks like Marianne but with a few key detail different and also the image to the eyes as one show the war stone the eye of Thundera, and the other eye. Leon/Leo looked closely as he saw the other eye was like a mirror to the Eye of Thundera as he looked to the Marianne look alike and saw he wings on her back, one set of wings on her left side were pith black as the ones on her right were pure white as she saw there was a total of six in all. "Guess that's Eve and the stone it must be the Eye of Thundera and that other one looks like an opposite of sorts as even though it was red the eye was more jagged like a devil or demon." Leon/Leo said as he remembered when Nowa and Marianne had talked before.

"Beautiful isn't she Leo." Came a familiar voice as Leon/Leo looked and saw Mumm-Ra the Ever living enter the room as Leon/Leo was not surprised like Lion-O was but it was still pretty shocking.

"My Lord Mumm-Ra." Leon/Leo said as he played the part with a respectful bow as he saw Mumm-Ra had the Gauntlet and Sword of Plun-darr which meant for Leon he already had three out of the four... or five stones.

"At ease Leo." Mumm-Ra said as he looked to the screen. "Once I have the Eve's Right Eye, The War Stone I will use it to amplify the power of the Sword of Plun-Darr making it the most formidable weapon in existence." Mumm-Ra said as he held the Sword of Plun-Darr where the hole had the War Stones hologram in it as that first part that was surprising for Leon.

'The eye of Thundera was Eve's right eye?' Leon wondered as this sounded like something out of Bayonetta 2 with Aesir. Leon needed more information since this was clearly an entirely different Thundercats universe so he will need information on Eve. "My Lord not to sound Ignorant or foolish but what of the Left Eye surely it may be able to provide the same amplification as the Right Eye." Leon/Leo said as Leon was hoping it won't cause him to get the shit zapped out of him.

"It is understandable Leo and yes the Left Eye can provide the same abilities as the Right Eye but I may only claim one out of the two." Mumm-Ra said as he looked at the stone. "The Conquest Stone has every bit of power as the War Stone, but no one not even I can use all five Stones together the maximum anyone short of Eve or the Gods can use is four no more, no less." Mumm-Ra said as Leon knew that this Conquest Stone was possibly a backup plan. If Mumm-Ra can't claim the War Stone then the Conquest Stone was the next best thing and as Leon looked at it he could tell the Conquest Stone was more suited to the Sword of Plun-Darr since the slit was jagged. "Now tell me Commander has the Book of Omens pinpointed the two stones energy signature to Eve's lair, the time of that being standing between me and the destruction of my retched Twin Mumm-Rana will come to an end soon." Mumm-ra said as Leon heard that.

'Great so seems this world is like a combo of the 1980's version of Thundercats and the 2011 version.' Leon thought as he always wondered what Mumm-Rana looked like in the 2011 reboot. That was when Leon quickly realized he needed to play his part.

"I shall see my Lord." Leon/Leo said as he waked to another holo console as he began clicking random buttons hoping Leo was still in this body enough to show him what buttons to press. By the looks of it Leo answered as the screen showed what Leon saw as Gainos and near it as a moon as Leon also saw nearby was another planet which looked like the 1980's version of Planet Thundera would look in ancient times. "There my lord." Leon/Leo said as he pointed to the moon.

"Good, Captain Tigress." Mumm-Ra began as a Tiger appeared on screen as Leon saw the cat. "Have your invasion fleet prepared to begin the invasion, Eve will be at her weakest during her ritual thus the barrier she erected with her power shall be weakened." Mumm-Ra said as he knew Eve was getting weaker if the Book was able to see past the Barrier. "To that end make sure the ground troops are prepared for the initial sweep Leo." Mumm-Ra said as Leon/Leo bowed respectfully.

"It shall be done my lord." Leon/Leo said as he began walking away to carry out the task.

(Later with Leon)

Leon in Leo's body was trying to make sense of this. By the looks of things it seemed that Planet Thundera and Gainos were in the same system as neighbors. If that was the case did Thundera actually exist and had taken more from its 1980's route of utilizing technology. If that was the case Leon might get to talk to Snarf. That was when Leon heard a beeping as he pulled out his communicator as he saw the message was encrypted as he opened it.

"We have allies to help us get to Eve first meet me at the prison to begin the plan." The message said as Leon was shocked.

"Great now if only I knew the way, I knew they should have made a Thundercats 2011 video game." Leon ranted as he began looking around. "Well no use complaining let's take a random path and hope for the best." Leon said as he wondered if these animals can help him get to Eve first. It seems by the look of things Leon or Leo and his allies will be in a race against time to beat Mumm-Ra to Eve's lair.

Leon/Leo enter the prison room as he knew this is where Leon needed to be as he said, "Okay, I'm here, now waiting for Panthera… or her equal version in this reality."

During the wait Leon looked at each cell that held the animals, the elephants, the dogs, the birds, money and… humans, angels, and dwarfs, 'Say what?'

Leon look around more and saw more races that including elves both light and dark kind next to each other. He look to the dwarfs next as they are small as he remember at steel mountain and they were looking a lot like the ones he seen in Warcraft, and the angels, maybe new as he saw there were fewer than any other races around and some of them are very wounded maybe pensioner of war, and there is one male angel with many wings on his back and many that surround him. Maybe he's the leader of that group?

'Maybe that how he knew of the two stones, but who's the angel guy with the many wings?' Leon thought but then he was cut off as he hears foot steps behind him and heard a voice saying to him, "What took you so long?"

Leon/Leo turn around and face… a human?

A dark purplish hair women almost pale skin and brown eyes, and if it wasn't for the color of her hair and skin of the women before him, he could swear he's looking at, Jessica Alba from his world.

"So?" the women said to him as Leon/Leo clear his throat a bit and said, "Sorry, Mumm-ra took his time getting to the command room for me to tell of my finding, what I missed?"

The women smile and giggles to the humanoid cat and soon they walk up to the screen and gotten an image of the Eve's world as the women began to say, "This is our invasion target, 50% of it is water so we need the tiger sharks to cover it."

Soon enough the guard were releasing numbers of prisoners as the women said to Leon/Leo, "And we have the monkey, and dogs to work the ground with the humans supporting them, the dwarf to navigate any underground area, and we'll have the vultures to cover the skies with the angels with their archangel leader backing them up."

Leon look to the angel as a number of them were being release and the many winged guy as well as he could guess that's the archangel.

As Leon/Leo look at all this, as the women looked at him and asked, "I assume that Tigress and his men would be moving out once Eve's lair is located."

"At best," Leon said to her as the women said, "Then we better up the time then."

Leon eye the women as she raise his right arm to a watch, or what he though was a watch as she push a button, soon enough an alarm went off and a surge of power happen which cause thing around to spark and Malfunction as all the cell open up and release the prisoners as Leon thought, 'Okay that was not in the show ether, but okay.'

A guy with light purple from the human group as they were being release already looks around, as the guy smile to this as he said, "Its time."

The guard looked at him as he spin kick one guard and kneed the other as they both drop and he took their weapons, soon enough a riot broke out and every races were attacking every guard around.

The archangel jump down from his level and join the ground level to join in the fight other races join in and the whole places is now acting like a war zone as Leon duck from a guard being thrown as the women said, "Come up, the other will meet up with us soon."

"Right behind you," Leon/Leo said as he follow the women as he's glad he is not the one leading as he have no idea where to go.

Leon wondered how this world can be so different. In Thundera of the 2011 version Ratilla had the Sword of Plun-Darr before Mumm-ra got out of his little provisional cell. If what he gathered was right Jaga used the Sword of Omens to battle him and destroy him before sealing the Sword of Plun-Darr into the earth. After that it was all blank but Leon knew Damian had the Sword of Plun-Darr now, but why go after the stones? Why did these Spirits serve Damian to give him such powers, wasn't Mumm-ra their golden boy. Did something happen in this era that Mumm-ra lost all his power. Leon knew something didn't add up but he can't look at it through the TV show eyes but through his alleged ancestor's eyes in Gainos, maybe he had the answers and to find it he had to live his life.

The duo soon arrived at what Leon recognized as the hidden base on Mumm-ra's ship that was where the Black Smith was forging the Sword of Omens. As Leon looked around he saw the blacksmith was almost done as he saw the group that were not cats had gathered some gear from boxes in here. Leon saw a second human who looked like a high-tech version of Deadshot which in Leon's opinion made him bit nervous as he hoped it was the comic or movie version of him because if not then Leon didn't like his odds. Leon saw the Archangel grabbing his sword as he swung it allowing it to extend to a claymore with magic flowing through it as he smirked.

Leon saw the Dwarf of the group grabbing an axe as he smiled as his old weapon as the blade edge glowed with energy showing it had either technology in it or magic. Though Leon thought the Elf looked a lot like Ymir as even this guys smiled match her. Leon saw the two elves as Leon swore he saw a male version of Alleyne and Echidna as the two were arguing over whose weapon was whom. The Echidna look alike took his Kris weapon which to Leon's shock looked a lot like Echidna's as he swung it allowing to unfold and release energy showing it was more snake like then Leon thought. Maybe the one Echidna had was a copy of her ancestor's weapon of choice but Leon didn't count his chickens before they hatched. The Alleyne look alike raised his staff as it was a spear base weapon as he nodded as they grabbed their armor.

It was then that the elf person began removing his armor before revealing he wasn't a he, at all as judging by those curves he was a she. "My little elf seems you don't have time for decency." The Echidna looking dark Elf teased as Leon was surprised as this guy was like a deep voiced Echidna.

"Well if you haven't noticed we don't have the luxury of decency since we need to get to Eve before Mumm-ra does. The Riot won't last for much longer and when they start doing a head count they'll realize the Arch Angel is missing." The Elven woman said as she may keep her hair short to upper neck level but Leon was glad he didn't end up in a bad situation.

"We don't have time to argue hurry up and suit up." The woman said as the Archangel seemed to be the silent type as well as the type with some recent baggage.

"Now Commander is that little sword you're having the blacksmiths make ready yet?" The Human said as he readied his arm guns.

"I'm telling you I can do a better job forging this sword." The Dwarf said in a thick burley accent as Leon realized these might be the ancestors of his harem an friends.

People were about to start an argument as Leon didn't want to do anything, but he need to take command as he put his finger to his lips and gave a loud whistle sound.

Everyone stop and look to the Leon/Leo as he begin to say, "We can't start arguing when it's a race against time here. Liquid star ore is one of the hardest metals to forge with. We're even pushing it with upping the times."

"He's right, the blacksmiths and the casters are worked overtime with it as well so we can't be picky on the forging, and you my brother calm your hand before you shot someone's head off," The women said as the guy did what he was told as he said, "Understand sister Lela."

Leon/Leo is surprise the guy who the women sister, and got the name Lela, and now he need to learn everyone else's, and with the message he gotten there could be some people here that are new and the others not so new but he didn't know that and it could be pushing it but he had a plan as he said when things calm down, "Good, now that out of the way, most of you already know who I am, but for the sake of everyone else new or not, please say your name so we can work together better."

Everyone nods in agree mostly as but it's also the best idea that anyone can come up with as the female elf step up saying now full dress, "I am Zelda, master of combat."

She step back, and with that surprise Leon a bit but didn't show to keep in character, as he moves on to the dark elf man as he step up while he gave a smirk while saying, "Nilux the mercenary."

Leon wonder if the girl of his harem and allies back in the real world he had do share a similarity to their ancestors as he moved on to the dwarf as he step up saying, "The names Mijonir, fighting the main, blacksmithing the same."

A little weird but Leon cannot change someone personality, or recording of history as he move on to the archangel as he gave a bow and said, "I am Michael, one of the few archangels of heaven and leader of the angels."

Okay Leon can check off that St. Michael is real, and wonder how much of this world have similar stories in the bible back in his world, and if he had the guess, if he's real, so was the other guy but didn't want to say it out loud and move on to the brother of Lela as he held up his weapon up and said, "Names Scott Miles, the hotshot, and believe when I say I never miss a shot."

Lastly was Lela as she step up saying, "Lela Miles, 2nd command of Commander Leo."

Leon/Leo looked to everyone and then everyone look to him as it seem they want him to do an intro for himself as well as Leon/Leo step up saying, "I am Leo of Thundera, and let this be a declaration of the rebellion against Mumm-ra."

Leon didn't know why he said that, but to guess is Leo is guiding him somehow, but everyone nods in agreement to that as everyone is prepared to go against Mumm-Ra power and will fight to the bitter end, as everyone held their weapon ready, some foot step were heard, as everyone turn to see two cat people walking up to the group, as one held an item cover in a cloth.

Everyone step out of the way for Leon/Leo, as he walk to Leo's people and the cat person remove the cloth to show the gold claw gauntlet, as Leon knew what it is and it's just missing the war stone in the center.

The male cat person hand it to Leon/Leo as he reach and grasp it and put his hand into it as the claw pop out, moved them around to give them a test of moment, before grabbing hold of the weapon in it and pull it out for everyone to see as he said, "The sword of Omens."

"Forge from the same liquid star ore as Mumm-ra sword and gauntlet," Lela said as Mijonir gave a look and said, "Kind of small, don't you think?"

Leon/Leo held it up and said, "That will change when it join…" Leon took a moment as he remember the eye of Thundera is Eve's right eye as he took clear his throat and said, "Sorry, my throat maybe a little dry. It will change once it join with one of Eve's eyes if she'll let us."

"I'll pray that she will," Michael said to him as he does hope that Eve will help Aid them with one of her eyes.

Soon enough as Leon/Leo put the sword of Omens back and said, "Let move out."

(Hanger area)

Ships were flying out to do battle again the resisting forces at the world surface, by the doors two cat guards stood by as they watch things unfold, and then the door open behind them as they turn to see there Commander Leo and his personal assistant Lela as they stood at attention as they say "Commander!"

"At ease, we're just going to be here a moment," Leon/Leo said to them as one guard ask, "Did something happen, I heard a riot broke out."

"Yes it did, I am to believe some may have gotten away in the confusion and come here to steal a ship to fly out of here, and I might know where they are at," Leon/Leo said as he walk close to one cat guard as Lela stood by the other one as the guard said, "We'll assist you anyway we can sir, just tell us where they are at and we can capture them, sir!"

Leon/Leo smile and said, "Good, and where they are at, they are behind us."

That confused the two guards for a moment until they turn their head to a small group as Scott wave his hand and said, "Hello."

Soon enough Lela knock out the guard near him by knee him in the gut and took the weapon he held and hit it against his head, as Leon punch him hard with his Gauntlet arm and throw him over the group, as Scott just kick him hard to double sure he'll stay out and also took his weapon.

Lela held ready and said, "We should move, guard check are in a few moments."

"You remember the next part of the plan?" Leon/Leo said with confidence, trying to play the leader well but inside he was panicking.

Lela giggle at him and said, "We commandeer a ship that was put in maintenance for space dust mices."

The brother laughs and said, "Bunch of idiot, following an order for something that don't exist."

"They're foolish really, but they are loyal to the commander and his word," Nilux said as he giggles as Zelda had a stern face as she said, "They are not ones that would betray their leaders, the cats are honorable people."

"And they are following the wrong leader that dishonorable, which is why we're doing this to free them from his rule and any other in Mumm-ra grasp," Leon/Leo said as once again saying something that isn't his words but he cannot complain as it did sounded good.

Everyone heard his word as Michael spoken up saying, "And we shall do so, for all."

At that moment Leon had to say, "All for one, and one for all." No one seem to mind that as they moved on to the maintenance area as they saw a few ship and the work crew working around, as Leon/Leo step up again with the group hidden around.

AS the boss of the work crew went over the readings until he hears someone clear their throat, the guy stop and turn around to face Leo as he gave a smile and said, "Commander, it's good to see you again."

"And you as well my friend," Leon said hoping that good to say to them as the then went on saying, "Tell me, how the maintenance with space dust mices?"

The guy rub his head and said, "It's clean for all I know, I check the wiring, floor panels, the vents, nothing that tell what you describe before."

"Then someone else might have taken care of it, or you miss something, but ether way I need to check it myself, special orders from the lord himself," Leon said taking Risty idea from the time they got pass border to get into Gainos by using someone name.

The worker nods as he understand and said, "Should you need someone to come aboard with you commander?"

"It's fine, better yet take a break, and rest for a few hours, you do look exhausted along with everyone else," Leon said as the people of Leo did look tired as the guy said, "T-thank you commander, but are you sure?"

Leon/Leo gave a good guy smile and said, "Yes I'm sure, a good crew is a well-rested crew, go enjoy some time resting."

The guy nods and said, "Thank you commander, you are most kind. Everyone 3 hour cycle break."

Soon enough everyone was putting up the tools, their gear, and other thing before they got out of the area and leaving Leon/Leo by himself, as he turn his head and gave a small whistle, the group came out of hiding and followed him as Lela check the report of which ship as she said, "Dock ship 3."

Everyone headed to the 3rd ship as Leon saw it, he swears it looking like something out of star wars, but keep his mouth shut and said, "Let's go."

Everyone boarded and took a seat as Lela took the pilot seat and Leon/Leo took co-pilot as he about to strap in as Leon said, "What to take us out?"

Lela smile as she lean over and give him a quick kiss on the cheek and said, "Love too."

'Okay it's the same here as well and he hooked up with a human girl, nice I guess,' Leon thought as he, strap himself in and soon they were taking off.

The ship took off as they were soon in space as they flew into the dogfight happening outside. "Ok so were officially traitors of Mumm-Ra tell me one of you guys have an idea." Mijonir said as Leon looked to his crew.

"Simple we survive this dog fight and have Michael lead us to Eve's lair or temple or whatever." Leon/Leo said as Lela drive the ship.

"Hey don't distract me! We don't want to be blasted out of space!" Lela called as she turned to her brother. "Scott man the guns!" Lela called as Scott heard.

"Got it!" Scott called before heading to man the guns.

Michael soon spoke as he looked to the planets moon. "Head for the moon that's where Eve resides!" Michael called as Lela looked.

"Yeah no problem considering we're in the middle of a dog fight!" Lela called as she tried to avoid hitting other ships or getting blasted at.

"Then drive smart!" Leon/Leo called as Lela nodded and drove torts the moon. Lela keep going as she dodge incoming fire, and every ship that came at them as Leon can tell she one hell of a pilot and glad he let her fly, but it soon got rougher the more flew into the fight.

Dodged incoming blast, as well Scott shoots any ship that coming at them, as it seem there are too many to get pass Leon didn't know what to do but a gut feeling came to him as he said, "Fly low."

"You crazy?" Lela told him as the ship shake too do an explosion as Leon/Leo look to her and said, "Just fly low, everyone attention is here in this area, if we fly lower we may bypass most of them."

Lela didn't know what to say but she knew if they stay any longer in this fight, they are most likely get blasted, but if they fly low would put them near the atmosphere and a strong gravity pull, so its ether fly high and get blasted, or fly low and crash or burn up in the atmosphere.

Lela sighed as she flip a few switches and said, "Brace yourself guys, were going in low!"

They felt the ship taking a drop as they hang on to the bars or straps around, as Michael pray, the two elves held on tight, the dwarf almost looks like he getting air sick, Scott who at the gun just smile to the action.

Leon/Leo himself breath slowly and keep his cool and hope this idea works as it seem less ships are around them now and now very close to the moon as Michael said, "There, that mountain there, that is where Eve's sanctuary lies."

"Lela?" Leon said to her as she reply, "Oh it." she set turn the handle and got in the direction of the mountain range, and soon enough Scott voice shouted out, "Commander, we got company, and it isn't good."

Leon look out the window a bit and saw a small groups of Mumm-ra fighters coming at them as Leon said, "They found us out."

"Great, just great. Go help Scott, in the other gunner," Lela said to him as Leon nods and undid the strap, and ran to the other gunner, as he went up a ladder, now he swears it more like star wars as the seat and the placement of everything is the same.

Flip a few switches that seem like Leo was guiding Leon again as he took the gun and watch the screen as the 4 fighters as he said, "Here they come."

*Play song: Star Wars Episode 4 Soundtrack - TIE Fighter Attack

The ship fire upon us and Leon/Leo and Scott start fire at them, as they flew by Leon try his best to shoot them down as if not they may not make it and he would get kick out and lose the book and the sword all together.

"Damn it they coming in too fast," Leon said, as down below as Scott made a face and said to himself before he told Leon/Leo, "For every credit that happened. Just keep at Commander!"

Leon now wondered how Luke was able to do this off the bat as he fired his blasters at the fighters. Leon cheered as he got one as that was a good shot in his opinion which is increased since the ship crashed and blew up.

Scott fired his cannons as well and has yet to miss a shot. As they battled Leon began getting better at the shooting as they flew through space. "Ok all I need is for Jaga to start saying use the Force and my Star Wars fantasy will be whole." Leon/Leo said as he fired at the ships.

"We need to hurry through these punks, if we don't then we're screwed." Scott said as they fired through the enemy fighters.

"Yeah they already spotted us, if anything once they do and fail to report back to Mumm-Ra we're already caught but at least we have a major head start." Leon/Leo said as he fired at the enemies.

"Yeah but less talking more shooting!" Lila said as she seemed angry for a bit as they flew torts the Moon while battling the fighters.

The squadron of fighters seem to have gotten the message that they were no match for this ship as it was down to the last ship as b it began to make an escape.

"We have a straggler!" Scott called as he aim and took the shot as it was a bullseye as the ship crashed and exploded. "We had a straggler." Scott said loving his skill with any range weapon.

"Ok we're in the clear." Leon/Leo said as they live to fight another day.

*End OST

(In the Cockpit

With Lila in the cockpit she sighed in relief as she looked at her stomach and smiled to herself as they might succeed in this mission. "Just a little longer and you'll live as a free Cat." She whispered as Mijonir was barfing into a bag while Michael was trying to calm his stomach.

Zelda and Nilux relax themselves as they knew the fight is over and enjoy the rest of the ride down to the surface of the moon as Lela announce, "We're coming to a landing soon, get ready for anything people."

The ship flew down to the moon surface and at the mountain area as it was strange there is no enemy fire of ether Eve's protectors, or any force of Mumm-ra, as Leon saw this, he wonder if everyone was in space doing battle with Mumm-ra forces or did he mess something up?

The ship flew down onto a flat surface, and right in front of a temple of some sort as Leon saw it kind of looks like something you see in Greece with marble pillars and naked statue, or angelic looking statue for this place.

The main doors open, Mijonir jump out for two reason as one: he did not want to say aboard for much longer than he wanted too, and two: he wanted some action as he said, "HAHAHA, Who wants some Mijonir!?"

The area was quite, and if there were crickets they were be chirping loud to him.

Mijonir is confused at this and then he got push out of the way by Nilux as he said, "Looks like you scared them off with your intimidating."

Zelda walk by and just huffed at that, next is Scott as he came out laughing a bit and said, "It funny because no one's here." Michael step out without say a word, and lastly was Lela and Leon/Leo as the cat patted his back and said, "Maybe next time."

Mijonir just grumble as he shoulder his axe and follow the group to the temple.

AS the group walk closer, with Leon/Leo looked around and said, "I thought there would be guards here or maybe some ground forces like we saw in space."

Michael walk beside him and said, "The once we seen upon coming here are not being use by angel, men, or any kind of creature as it not always in the nature of angels to fight with such weaponry as they are just so uncivilized and would not dare ask for anyone to help."

'Okay, he just quote obi-wan Kenobi at one part, but other than that,' Leon thought as then he asked Michael, "If those fighters are not angels, or any other kind, then who or what is?"

Soon enough the statues around came to life and step down from their pedestal with weapon in hand or just their fist as Everyone stood ready as the archangel said, "Eve's power of giving life to non-living object, a vessel without a soul to say."

'Great, now it's like the first 'Tomb Raider' movie,' Leon thought as in a scene in that movie statues in the temple all came to life.

"Very few mortals have ever set foot here and the ones who did were summoned by Eve herself." Michael said as he looked to the temple.

"So what's the story on mortals entering here uninvited?" Leon/Leo asked as Michael looked.

"Basically mortals who wish to see her must go through a sort of gauntlet of trials testing each of them in different ways such as Speed, Strength, Cunning, and many more as each trial is different for each mortal." Michael said as Leon/Leo nodded.

"Ok then let's get inside who knows how long we have till Mumm-Ra catches up." Leon/Leo said as the group nodded and entered the temple.

(Inside the Temple)

The group arrived at an altar of sorts as the place was empty save for statues depicting Eve as Leon/Leo gulped at how sensual some of them looked. Each statue was different as they seem to tell a story as Eve was but a humble Angel who ascended to divinity when given the Eyes allowing to rule over the mortal realm so God may rule over the Heavens. It seems new statues were being added as one of the most recent showed Eve pregnant as even though Eve birth3d the world it seems this pregnancy was her own offspring of sorts.

Leon/Leo then saw a book on qn alter as he walked over to it and picked it up as it had the words Loveless printed on the Leather. Leon/Leo then opened it and saw pages were missing as Leon/Leo saw it was an epic as he began to read. "When the War of the Beasts brings about the worlds end, the Goddess descends from the sky. Wings of light and dark spread afar her gift everlasting." Leon/Le9 read as soon different pathways open as Michael knew what this was.

"It appears that we each must find the missing pages of this Epic and deliver it to Eve only then will she appear before us." Michael said as everyone knew what needed to be done.

"Let's split up we can all meet at Eve's chambers once we gather the pages now let's hurry!" Zelda said as she spun her staff a bit knowing they were on the clock here.

Leon/Leo held up his claw Gauntlet and drew his sword and will to grow… at least if it had the eye of 'THUNDERA' which is Eve's right eye which they 'DON'T' have yet, as Leon mentally face palm himself and said, "Looks like I won't be much help."

"We don't have to fight these things?" Michael said as the pointed out the statue that has yet to attack them as Leon asked him, "Then why do they have weapon and seem to be block the path?"

"They are just safe guard, they will block way to where you are not supposed to go as I said, Eve will test those who enters through trials," Michael said to him as Leon put away his weapon and said, "Don't fight against them then, follow the rules, and maybe all of us can come back in one piece, you too Scott."

"Ah, why do you have to ruin my fun commander?" Scott said as he got elbow by his sister.

Leon/Leo look to everyone and said, "As Zelda said, we split up and look for the missing pages, as I counted and estimated guess, we need 6."

"One of use may be left behind," Zelda pointed out as there were 7 of them and only 6 pages so one person seem to be not needed until Lela held onto Leon/Leo arm and raise her gun as she said, "Or we all go and one of use pair up, and I vote me with Leo, if we run into trouble, he is the most vulnerable one here as his weapon is incomplete without a stone."

Leon is surprise by this but seem fair as everyone seem to agree as Scott came up to Leon/Leo and put a hand over his shoulder and said, "You watch over my little sister now, if she hurt, you're going to get hurt by me."

"I will protect her with my life as she will with mine," Leon/Leo said with Leo words spoken out again.

Michael nods and said, "Then we shall go forth." They moved out on their own person and Lela with Leon and they walk through the passage way.

(Mijonir)

Mijonir has enter a room that seem like his kind of place as it was a forge area, with the smell of burning coal and the heat of the flames, as he looked around and said, "This will do fine, now where is that blasted page… Come on out, if there someone here to challenge me, I will take it."

A sound of metal dropping down along with other things as Mijonir hear is sounded like a sword and maybe other weapon as he said when he turn around, "Surrendering already- Hu?"

There was no one there as he looked around, he was in the room by himself, not even the statues follow him in, as he look to the ground he saw a few things, gloves, a forge hammer, a tong, and what looks like an incomplete sword.

Mijonir looked at it and said, "Are you kidding me." He walk up to the items and the first thing he picked up was the incomplete sword and give it a look over, as he saw who ever worked on the sword last the dwarf is displease with it as eh said, "This is a disgrace, this isn't a sword, it's a piece of metal, I sword you whoever you are, this isn't a weapon!"

He soon picked up the tools and gotten to work, as he lay his axe to the side where he can see it, put on the glove and put the tools on his belt as he gotten to work.

Putting the sword in the flames and pull a rope to make the flames rise to great temperature, as after a moment he soon grab the sword with the tongs to hold the sword over an anvil as he hammer it to shape.

Time flew by for him as he heat, hammer, check, and repeat until he gotten the sword to the shape he wanted too, and soon enough he did the heat treatment, cool, heat again to a lower degree and started to put on the guard and handle on as well put a strap on the handle very tightly it could not be undo any time soon.

Soon enough the dwarf held the sword up high as it looks like the sword is made for a great knight as he said, "And that how you make a sword… Wait a moment… I FORGOT WHAT I WAS DOING!"

Putting up the tools and put the sword on the rack, and picked up his axe as he said, "I need to find that page!"

As he was about to rush around, something flew in his face as he took it off and said, "Who throwing stuff?"

Looking at the paper that was thrown in his face as he saw it wasn't just a piece of paper, but the page he's looking for as he said, "Ah HA, I know I can find it, I just hope the other haven't gotten back before me!"

After he left the room change to a broken down forge room, and the sword Mijonir put on the rack vanish.

(Zelda)

The master of combat ran down the halls in hope to find one of the missing pages, as room came up to her, she skip across the ground and stop at the room that seem to be a study room of sort, as she when in and look for the page, until she stop dead in her track and saw someone was already there as she said, "Nilux."

The dark elf turn around to see his rival and said, "Ah, nice to see you again little elf."

"Why are you here, you were supposed to go your own way, not follow me," Zelda said to him as the guy smile said, "I was on my own way but suddenly it lead here, it's not my fault where these passages would lead too, and beside… look like you were lead here too."

Pointed out to the way they came in Zelda turn and saw the open path was no more as it was just a solid wall as Zelda ran to it as she put a hand on to it see it is real and said, "What magic is this?"

Suddenly the room begin to shift as the study room shift and change as object floated up and the floor itself seem to be moving apart making a gap, with the room itself halved, as Zelda jump to one side of the room, Nilux shifted over to the other side.

And soon afterwards a light shine to the opening in between the two halves of the room. And then things started to calm down as Zelda stood up and Nilux walk over to the gap that halved the room, he put his hand up and touch a barrier as it made a ripple to show it would not hurt him but won't let him go to the other side as he said, "Its seem we are trapped in our own spaces."

"For what reason and for what purpose?" Zelda said as soon enough a flash of light shine at the ends of the two halves room, as when it died down two pages floated in the high in the air, one for each of them.

Nilux examine the two half itself as it would seem impossible to reach, and then he spotted a bookshelf that was still at his level as he wonder as he walked over to it.

"What are you doing?" Zelda asked him as he started to pull some books off and said, "I'm checking something."

Soon enough he found something he was looking for, as a book that was stuck in place and would not move as easy as the other he pull off as he smile and pull it as it seem to activate something.

On Zelda side stone bricks started to come out and also something else as behind the two elves on each of their side look to the back wall and saw hour glasses appeared before them and turn over to show a timer was set and it was running as Nilux said, "I understand now, it's like a puzzle game with a timer, if we can find the next switch both of us can advance to the next part."

Zelda didn't like it but she'll have to go with it and said, "Fine then, let us do this."

Zelda rush to the pop out stone bricks as they were widen enough for her to stand on, as he walk up, she look around for a switch for her side, as she turn her head on the wall, saw a candle stick but not lit, as she had a thought, she grab at it and try to turn it but nothing happen there, then she pull back on it as that work as it activated the next part for Nilux as different the stone floor tiles started to move raised up.

Nilux smile as he ran and jump up onto the risen tiles as he came to the last one he saw a floating object as he grab it which was a metal apple of sort, he turn the other way and try to find if it something to throw at and saw a painting of a bowl of fruit which had most of what a fruit bowl would have other than one missing fruit as he said, "it's going to be like this then it going to be very simple.

Throw the metal apple at the painting, it seem to have absorb it as the painting ripple, it image distorted before it clear up to show it had the apple that Nilux had had join with it which activate the next part as tiles on Zelda side started to rise up to her for her to move on.

Zelda jumped from the stone bricks to the tiles and look for the next switch, as it seem nothing was within reach to grab and throw like Nilux just did, she figure each one was different on either side.

Looked at the wall on her side, as she try to figure out where the next switch is, and then spotted a stone brick that was budging out as Zelda twirl her staff around before held it in one hand, she thrust out with it and hit the stone brick pushing it back in place and activate the next part.

Nilux look back at the timer and saw almost half the sand is gone and said, "WE better move."

Both elves work their best to figure out the next switch, until he came to the last one as each of them were standing on a 3 by 3 floating tiled floor as Nilux said, "Its seem we reach the end of the road."

Zelda could not help but feel agitated as she cannot figure out the last clue, as the sand of the hour glasses are about to run out, she try to think of something but nothing came to mind as she got frustrated enough she stomp her feet on the tiled floor, and then she felt something, her foot she used was raise up along with the other 7 around tiles around her.

Zelda figure out the clue as she said, "Step on the ties, it rises up once you do." Nilux looked at her for a moment before he look down at his feet, before he raise a foot and step on the tile next to him and 7 tiles and the one he step on raise up as he smile and said, "Well the little elf figure out it, nice job.

Soon enough they were stepping on different tiles to see which one was the next one, their time was almost up as they hope to it coming down to the 3 tiles.

As they step one the last two there were two tiles left

The sand only had a few grains left.

1 tile left.

The hour glasses were about to be empty.

They stood on the last one and jump in the air to grab their floating page as the hourglasses were done.

The barrier that keep the two room separated vanish, and soon enough the room was going back to its original look.

AS Zelda and Nilux fell down as the tiles drop and landed safely, the room two halves became whole again and the path out of the room was open again, as Zelda said, "Let no and not keep everyone waiting." They left the room and soon enough the room went dark

(Scott)

Scott arrived at a room and saw there was a lot of targets here no doubt this place was a sort of shooting range as Scott chuckled to that. "Man what they want me to shoot the targets, easy!" Scott said but the minute he saw that each of the targets began to move as each gained a sort of portal as Scott was surprised at this. "Ok... not as easy but I never miss." Scott said as he looked at the portal before pointing with his arm gun and fired as the beam entered a portal and came out another only to enter another and repeat before it vanished as Scott quickly ducked as the beam came out behind him.

Scott looked and saw another portal was behind him as that was surprising even for him. "What the hell?!" Scott called as he looked around and saw a switch of sorts that could only be activated by shooting it, problem was the only way to do that was for the bullet to come out the right set of portals to hit it as Scott was glad the first time he had missed didn't kill him. "Ok this is going to be difficult even for me, and I never miss a shot." Scott said as he had to shoot carefully since there was no telling where the laser will come out if he doesn't shoot correctly. "Ok no pressure I get the page and move on, simple." Scott said as he tried to think but he was nervous. One wrong shot means he would get shot instead. Scott was for the first time nervous as this trial was literally designed to test his trick shot skill to its highest level.

Scott fired at a different portal and once the laser flew through the different portals Scott had to quickly dodge again as this time the laser nearly hit his foot. "Ok to close for comfort." Scott said as he needed to think he's got a whole lot of portals here and only one can give him the right set to hit the target. "If I survive this I so owe Lela Credits for my arrogance coming back to bite me in the ass." Scott said as he always believed himself the best shot there was and now he was in a trial that was his perfect match.

Scott try think a bit as he did a point with his gun and thought, 'So if I fire there then it will come back and shot me in the back, and if I do the other one it would shot my foot. If I fire it seem to me coming back at me so what could it be?'

Scott at ever portal carefully, and saw some portals next to each other like something is supposed to go into that but nothing is in its direction so how can a shot be shoot through it, and then it hit him.

Looking at his own position and sees he has a lot of movement freedom as if he fire in a different fire position he might get a different result as he smile and said, "Work the angles."

step to the side at the first portal, as the shot came out of the other portal in angle different, as it went through it, as it zoom around portal to portal, and then shot back at him as he dodge it as now he knew he's maybe making progress.

Scott made his shots at each portal, and each one came around and back at him as he put his dodging skill to work too.

Now it was coming down to the last portal to do an angel shot at as he said, "This one is for the big teddy bear."

Fire the shot as the zoom out of every portal and right back at him as he drop down to dodge it and said, "Fuck my life."

Scott stood up and said, "I fire at every damn portal in this damn room, and I'm still not coming close to it."

Turn around for a moment and rub his eyes and think what the hell is he missing as he been at is for almost an hour and his guns are almost out of power.

He stop rubbing his eyes for a moment and look at the portal that was firing his shots back at him , and then another thought hit him as he fired everything down range of the fire line… 'I'm a fucking idiot.'

Scott fire into that portal as he turn around to see it zooming around out and in every portal around as it vanish for a moment as the shot, he fired came out of a portal that appeared out from the ground as it shot up and at the switch as that had activated something.

The portals vanishes and the fire range was opening up to him as he step in and watch things change around, one think started to raise up as Scott look and saw a target and on that target was a page as he smile, walk up to it, and grab it and said, "I got my piece, not I need to get back to the other before they start arguing about something.

AS he was about to head out, he stop for a moment as he sighed for a moment before he turn around and shot the target that held the paper and hit dead center as he said, "Bullseye."

(Leon/Leo and Lela)

As the duo head down the path they took as it were seem to be getting smaller, from a large hall to a passage way like and the way it lit with candles, as Leon/Leo said, "This place is getting stranger by every moment."

"Yes it is," Lela said as they keep going and soon enough she asked, "You ever think we can find the page before Mumm-ra get here? He could be at the foot of this place any moment now."

"Well we just have to hope we get all the pages soon and we beat Mumm-ra to Eve, if we can get one stone we can stand a good chance against him," Leon /Leo said as Lela spoken in low tone, "I'll pray that your right… Leo there is something I wanted to tell you."

Leon/Leo stop for a moment and turn back to her and said, "What is it?" Lela put her hand low and held them together and said, "I want to say that... the time we were together that one night… I-

Before she could say anything else a light surround her, as Leon cover his eyes as the light got very bright for him as in a flash the light was gone… and so was Lela.

Once Leon/Leo open his eyes he blink a few time and looked around and said, "Lela?"

After a moment his vision was coming back and saw Lela nowhere in sight as he yell out, "Lela!"

Leon looked around as all of the sudden he had a panic feeling, his heart is racing as it seem Leo is acting more as he looked around as Leon thought, 'What's going on… I don't have control anymore.'

Right now Leon is spectating thing with no control over anything as Leo looked around for a moment, then look back down the path way saw it was block off somehow and he didn't hear a thing and he was blinded by that light that took Lela.

Leon is trying to figure out if he mess up on something or he made a mistake and then Raga voice spoken out, 'Fear not young lord. This is not a mistake on your part, Leo will is quite strong at this point as there are time where even the memories of the past are strong enough to take control, so don't worry and let him guild you on the road ahead for this is a test only for him.'

Leo turn around forward and ran, trying to hurry to see what is going on and soon enough he stumble upon a white room, as Leo walk through, he could not tell what is going on and then a light shine in the middle of the room, as Leo look and saw Lela with her eyes close and head down and floating a bit above the ground by a few inches as Leo shouted and he ran, "Lela!"

AS he got close, he was suddenly stop by a flash of light that stop him dead in his tracks as Leo open his eyes and saw who or what is making the light as he saw a person, with no define shape of gender or race, just a being of light as the light said to him in a distorted voice as Leo could not tell if it was male or female ether, "Welcome Leo, I have been excepting you."

Leo step forward and said, "Who are you, what have you done to Lela!?"

The being of light did not show an emotion of any sort as it lack a face to show it as it says, "I am the holder and guardian of the page you seek."

"Where is Lela!?" Leo demanded as he glared at the Guardian.

"I'm afraid Mumm-Ra has used his evil magic to abduct her, but we cannot worry of her lose her sacrifice shall not be in vane once you receive the page." The Guardian said as it looked to Leo.

"Sacrifice?" Leo growled as he knew what the guardian meant.

"Lela accepted this rebellion of yours knowing full well it would mean death, her death would be an acceptable lose for the greater good of the universe." It said as Leo glared.

"You know where she is don't you?" Leo said as he had to save Lela.

"Yes but you cannot save her less you sacrifice the universe in exchange the same vice versa you must save this universe regardless of the losses." The guardian said as Leo growled

"How can you tell me that, you're forcing me to choose between my heart and my duty?!" Leo called as the Guardian was simply silent for that comment. "What do you want me to do!?" Leo roared as he was stuck between two options that would lead to two different outcomes.

That was when it spoke as it looked to Leo. "Choose which to sacrifice, the universe or your lovers life, your duty or your heart." The Guardian said as Leo looked shocked at this ultimatum.

Leo did not know what to choose, as ether he chooses to save the one he loves and damn the universe, or save the universe and lose the love his life.

For Leon he felt Leo heart, a feeling he knew too well, the feeling when his mother had died an aching feeling he did not wish to feel again. Leon would have done anything for his mother to get well, or keep being with him when he needed her the most, his heart could not let go, and if he did he could it might break him, and so he worked hard at his mother comic book store, to keep it alive so it would feel like his mother was still there.

When he hand it off to his uncle and aunt for them to have income he knows they will keep the place alive, and keep the necklace his mother has given him, and never once taken it off for a reason, and when he came into this world, when he meet Leina, Risty, and all the others his heart was filled with life and love again and swear he did not want to lose it, as Leon seem to be slowly taking back control as his hand raise up balled up and put it against his heart.

A message that sent across time, space, and reality, Leo felt his heart beats as when he thought to the loss of Lela he could not make that choice as he said, "I choose Lela."

The guardian look to him and sense the strength of his heart as it says, "If you choose her then you will have destroy the universe."

"I choose Lela!" Leo shouted loud and clear as Leo walk over to the guardian as it says, "You will kill millions and enslaved billions if you pick her."

Leo stood in front of the guardian and look it straight in its face and said, "What good is the universe if you can't protect the ones you love, if my life is damn to save anything or anyone so be it but I will not give up Lela, not now not ever!"

Leo grab hold of the guardian and said, "I want to be with Lela… Now!" Leo voice echo with the room as his arms shakes, as the guardian was silent for the moment until he said, "You have pass."

Leo look to the guardian in surprise with his grip loosen as it says, "Giving up a life can be easily done by so many… but given up the heart is not, a test of the heart is needed, if you wish to speak to Eve then the heart of one must be tested, and you have pass, there for I shall return Lela to you, and grant you the last page, good luck Leo of Thundera."

The being of light seem to have shatter like glass and in its place, Lela as she was being held in Leo's arms, Lela eyes were still close, as she moan a bit of waking up, she open her eyes to Leo as she said, "Leo?... what happen, where am I?"

Leo had tears in his eyes and hug Lela as she is taken surprise by this, she did not know what happen as he said; "I thought I lost you."

Lela huge Leo back and said, "I'm still here and not going anywhere… you big scary cat."

Leo laugh at her humor and keep hold of her for just a little longer before they let off and looked at each other for a moment as they went into a kiss for a moment before stopping.

Lela felt something in her hand as she brought it around and held it up as she open her palm and saw a piece of folded paper, as Leo and Lela looked at it for a moment as it seem to unfold itself out and show it the missing page they were looking for as Leo said, "We found it."

"Yea… let get back quickly and wait for the others," Lela said as Leo nods and soon they headed back, and Leon felt he gain control again as he thought, 'That better, now let get this to the book and meet Eve… I wonder what she would be like. God I hope nothing like Marianne, she trouble enough as her good self.'

(Later at the final room)

The group arrived as saw Michael already there as he held the last page as they looked at his surprised. "The Hell how did you get here so fast?" Scott asked as he and the group were surprised at this.

"Simple I prayed and was answered." Michael said as Mijonir looked around.

"So where's Eve?" Mijonir asked as he looked around.

"Those pages we must each read them in order of act to summon her here, since we did not force our way here we will be able to summon her." Michael said as he pointed to platforms. "Stand on those platforms and read once we finish Eve will appear." Michael said as the group nodded and stood on their designated platforms.

*insert Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII

Leon/Leo began to read as he opened the book. "When the War of the Beasts brings about the worlds end, the Goddess descends from the sky. Wings of light and dark spread afar her gift everlasting." Leon/Leo read as his platform glowed as soon Michael was next.

"Infinite in mystery is the gift of the Goddess. We seek it thus, and take to the skies. Ripples form on the water's surface. The Wandering Soul knows no rest." Michael read his part as his platform glowed as Zelda began reading her part.

"There is no hate, only joy. For you are beloved by the Goddess. Hero of dawn, healer of worlds. Dreams of the Morrow hath the shattered soul. Pride is lost." Zelda read as her platform began to glow like those before.

"My friend do you fly away now? To a world that abhors you and I? All that awaits you is a somber morrow no matter where the winds may blow. My friend, your desire is the bringer of life, the gift of the Goddess. Even if the morrow is barren of promises nothing shall forestall my return." Nilux read as he looked to his piece of the epic allowing his platform to glow.

"My friend, the fates are cruel there are no dreams, no honor remains. The arrow has left the bow if the goddess. My soul corrupted by vengeance hath endured torment, to find the end of the journey. In my own salvation and your eternal slumber. Legend shall speak of sacrifice at worlds end. The wind sails over the water's surface quietly, but surely." Scott read as his platform glowed before now came to Lela.

"Even if the morrow is barren of promises nothing shall forestall my return. To become the dew that quenches the land, to spare the sands, the seas, the skies; I offer thee this silent sacrifice." Lela read as the final platform glowed as soon something happened.

The center of the circle of platforms began to open as a divine platform appeared as a light shinned down from above as black and white feathers began to rain down from above as Michael knew what it meant. "She's here." Michael said as Eve has appeared.

Coming down from above as everyone cover their eyes for a moment to make out a figure, starting with naked feet, a gray looking dress, arms, 6 wings, and now a face as once her feet touch the ground everyone took In the site of her.

Pale skin, rainbow colored hair, and a gray dress with a white ribbon on one side and a black on the other to the same at her wings.

Leon/Leo looked in 'Aw' as stood face to face with Eve herself as Leon thought, 'She look just like Marianne very much with the few details different and so many wings. So this Eve, never thought in my life to meet a godly being.'

Eve had her eyes close to them but she has spoken, "Welcome to the 7 who has come to speak with me. Tell me what is you wish to say."

Lela look to Leon/Leo as he step up as he took a breath and said, "Greeting Eve, I am Leo of Thundera. My comrades and I has come before you of Mumm-ra-."

Before Leon/Leo could go on Eve raise her hand to him and said, "I know already, for I have foreseen it."

Raise her hand to her right eye, as Leon should have known she have as if the eye give him site beyond site in the real world, then her eye must have the same ability but to a greater degree.

"Then do you know the other reason why we have come?" Leon/Leo asked as Eve as she nods and said, "I do, which is why I have tested all of you."

Everyone paid attention her to as she said, "Test of strength the forge of hardship, to the make something out of a ruin piece and make it beautiful."

The image of a sword came before everyone as Mijonir saw his work as he smile to this, and then the image of the sword vanish and move on to a golden apple that Nilux has grab and throw at a painting as Eve said, "The test of speed to test the limits of one self and others as well."

As the elves nods to this as Zelda keep a stern face as Nilux just smile, then an image of a portal show as Eve went on saying, "The test of cunning to see to test not only the ones skills but their mind as well."

Scott smile at this as he knew he the best shooter around but not only that, he a smart shooter as Even then moves on to what looks like a cross as Eve went on again, "A test of faith to show ones loyalty to not only to their gods, but to their friends as well."

Michael kneel down to show he is graceful to her as now Eve move on to Leon, and Lela as any image show vanish and said, "And lastly, have pass the last test of all, the test of heart. As many show strength through their anger and rage, you shown strength from you heart, a feeling that is greater than anything that would show… love is your strength."

Lela smile to Leo as Leon felt his cheeks blushing do to Leo reaction, as he look over to Scott, as the sharp shooter looked over to the cat and just give a smile to him. "So you know what we request of you then?" Leon/Leo asked as Eve nodded.

"Yes but to do this my entire being must be sacrificed." Eve said as Michael looked.

"As a neutral being you govern this world but mortals only perceive the world one way you perceive them and it becomes reality itself." Michael said as Eve nodded.

"Yes the Eye if Thundera and the Eye of Plun-darr both of these eyes grant me the power to bend the world to my will, but I pity the mortals for their need for violence and war as well as their limited sight." Eve said as she looked to the blue planet this moon orbited. "Now I realize so long as I exist the mortals will never be able to grow, never learn." Eve said as she moved her hands unconsciously to her stomach. "To solve this I had decided to destroy myself and recreate myself as two separate beings while entrusting my eyes to the mortals, they will decide the world's future." Eve said as everyone was shocked.

"But how can you have so much faith in us that we will reach the future?" Leo/Leon asked as Eve smiled.

"Just by looking at you Leo I can see the future is on good hands." Eve said as Leon saw Eve wasn't looking at Leo but Leon himself almost like she knew. "Now you who stand here I ask that you give me time to finish what I had started for Mumm-Ra the Ever Living approaches." Eve said as the sounds of explosions and laser fire were heard in the distance.

"Don't worry if the guardians fail we won't my lady." Michael said as he kneeled to Eve knowing what she was doing would destroy her and Leon/Leo saw that Michael held deep emotions for Eve. Leon/Leo saw Michael had yet to make his peace with the woman he loved.

Funny a loyal knight who is madly in love with his lady and must now watch her die for the future without admitting to her he loved her. Just like a tragedy but then Leon remembered the statue that described Eve being with child, Michael's obvious love for her, and the fact she held her stomach Leon/Leo quickly realized what was going on.

'Michael is going to be a father.' Leon thought as that would mean Marianne and Ciela aren't just two halves of Eve they are hers and Michael's daughters.

"Leo, I will ask of you, do not let one being control all the stones, do not let Mumm-ra succeed in his plan of conquest," Eve said to Leon/Leo as he nods.

Leon knew what she is meaning, as like in the Thundercats series, she is asking for the stone to be divided as Leon know meaning give it to other races as he said to her, "I'll make sure when Mumm-ra is defeated I promise you."

Eve nods her head and then begin her departing as she said, "Fair well heroes, and goodbye Michael."

Suddenly she started to glow before she started to break down into many color dust, Michael could not hold back his tears, even if he wanted too.

It wasn't a big bang or a flash of light as Leon sees, as Eve entire being is nothing but a colorful mist, and then two orbs of energy was reviled, one made of light and the other a darkness as Leon/Leo looked at he thought when he looked at the light, 'Marianne."

Turn to the dark one and then thought in a bit of venom to it, 'Ciela.' He haven't forgotten what she did to the pink hair angel Hachiel, but what can he do, he can't change the pass as this isn't quantum leap.

"Leo," Lela said calling out to Leon/Leo as he turn to her and saw her looking at something as he looked where Lela is looking as well as in the air two stones left floating, the eye of Thundera, and the eye of Plun-Darr.

Leon/Leo saw them and to the war stone or eye of Thundera, it was almost like in the show as well other than the shape sphere shape than square shaped, or any other shapes. The other eye looking at the same as the other eye but with the jagged slit eye part

Before anyone thought about grabbing the stones, the two orbs of energy started to take in all the color mist around them, as Leon/Leo hears a ringing sound he cover his ears as it seem to be the only one to hear it do to his enhance hearing as no one was bother by it.

The two orbs of energy took off the dust and then with a burst of a power force that made everyone cover themselves as the two shot out of the temple, and vanish.

The ringing sound has stop as Leon/Leo uncover them and open his eyes as he can guess, the two orb of energy shot out to the world, with one in heaven and the other in hades if he remember what Marianne said.

Leon/Leo look to everyone and said, "Is everyone alright?"

"I think so," Scott said with the everyone seem to be the same and then everyone soon turn back to the stones as they started to float down, as the eye of Thundera landed in Leon hands, the other landed in Lela.

The couple held up the stone up and looked at it in the light as they gave a glow, Leon could not help but be mesmerizes by it as Lela the same with the stone in her hand.

Mijonir was tapping his foot and said, "Great we got the stones, now let get out of here before they get here."

An Explosion is hear down at the entry of the temple as Leon/Leo said, "They are already here."

"We need to escape then, "Michael said as prepare his sword as did everyone else with their weapon.

Leon/Leo put the stone in the other hand as he drew the sword of Omens, as he raise it up and held the stone up and then join them together, a like in the show, the stone flux out a bit before joining with the sword, as energy came forth of the mix of the sword enchanted properties and the stone energy united, the sword of Omens is complete.

"All of you find a way out and take the Conquest Stone with you." Leon/Leo said as they needed an army now and what better army then those oppressed by Mumm-ra.

"What?" Lela asked as Leon/Leo looked.

"You all are going to release the slaves and they will help us fight back against Mumm-ra and the other cats still loyal to him." Leon/Leo said as everyone got the message.

"What about you?" Lela asked hoping Leo wasn't about to do something overly foolish.

"I'm going to face Mumm-ra and stop him for good." Leon/Leo said as Leon hoped Leo was able to defeat and destroy Mumm-ra in the past which would shave off any worry of Leon having to face Mumm-ra. But for Leon that was possibly wishful thinking but Leon had to remember this wasn't the world he was used to.

"Leo please you only have on stone what will happen if Mumm-Ra wins its game over." Lela said as Michael looked.

"No we will still have the Eye of Plun-Darr as long as we have that we might still have a chance and if Mumm-Ra doesn't get it we might stay safe." Michael said as he clenched his fists as he recently had to make the hardest decision of his near eternal life.

"We should trust the Lion here after all he's the one who knows Mumm-ra's tactics and skills like the back of his hand, better then you do Lela if anyone has a chance it's him." Nilux said as Leon/Leo was sweating a bit as he knew Leo may know Mumm-ra but Leon didn't. If anything Leon was at a major disadvantage.

"We should put our faith in Leon, he hasn't steered us wrong yet." Zelda said as she knew Leo was there best chance at defeating Mumm-Ra.

"But..." Lela tried to argue before Scott looked.

"Just believe in Leo because he believes in the, you who believes in him." Scott said as Leon was mentally crying at the Gurren Lagann reference there. Lela didn't know what to say, at this point, but she can do one thing as she went up to him as she grab hold of Leon/Leo face and give him a kiss that lasted for a moment but for ether of them, lasted for eternity.

Lela let off as Leon is surprise and happy, even though it was meant for Leo he just took it as is as she said, "I'll wait for you." "And I'll come back, for you," Leon/Leo said as it was mostly Leo talking but who cares.

Mijonir still in edgy as he said, "This is nice and all, but are we forgetting something… There and army outside the front door and I count even all 7 of us with the stones we may not make it out through there!"

Soon enough an hidden door open up as group turn and prepared their weapon, but as they saw the solid stone doors open up like a big doorway, but they saw no one there, other than a huge ship that looks like can carry a small army as Michael said, "Eve always had something plan for others."

Leon/Leo nods and said, "Then take the ship and free everyone, Mumm-ra is going to be here soon."

Everyone nods as they went off Lela stay for a moment and give Leon/Leo a quick kiss on the cheek and said, "When you return I want to tell you something."

Leon/Leo nods and said, "Alright, good luck." Lela giggle and said, "I think you may need it more than me."

Lela follow the others to the ship prepared for them, as Michael took the control and set forth to Mumm-ra ship, as Leon/Leo watch them take off, dust blow and then see them fly out of site.

The sound of fighting gotten really closer Leon turn stood in the center waiting for Mumm-ra to come as the guardians were thrown into the room, break upon impacted of the ground as Mumm-ra walk in with his own force still battling any of the still standing Guardians.

"I see you have the stone Commander," Mumm-ra said to Leon/Leo as he reply the same words that Lion-o said to him in the series, "Yes, but you're not getting it or the other one, as my friend left with it."

"Your betrayal comes as a surprise, even more surprising that you sincerely believe you succeed with just the one stone," Mumm-ra said as Leon/Leo put a hand on the sword and said, "You yourself said it is one of few of the most powerful weapon in existence."

Leon/Leo drew the sword as it transform into sword form as Mumm-ra said, "Yes I did say that, but you do you believe with even with that one stone you'll be a match to the other stones we have collected, or have you forgotten?"

Mumm-ra held up his gauntlet to show off the other three stones as Leon said, "I haven't forgotten, but that don't mean I'll back down and give up the stone."

"So be it, as I have brought down the forces of Eve to its knees for the stones, I suspect taking it from you would be a far easier task!" Mumm-ra said as he drew his sword with the three some helping it transform into its true form as purple lightning surrounds it as he give his spin before slamming it down sending a wave of energy at Leon/Leo as he block it with the gauntlet as it push him back but keep on his feet as then swing the sword around disburse the power throw at him, Leon/Leo ran at Mumm-ra to strike back.

As the two sword collided the two enchanted swords try to overpower the other as did Mumm-ra and Leon/Leo were doing as they clash with Leon pushing Mumm-ra back, feeling Leo guiding using the sword which helps a lot right now again the evil lord.

Leon/Leo aim the eye of Thundera at Mumm-ra and fire a beam of energy at him, as Mumm-ra lifted his gauntlet to block it, one of the stones felt the over whelming power as it came off, as Mumm-ra yell, the Tech stone flew through the air, as Leon/Leo ran to it and caught it in his gauntlet hand before landed on his feet as Leon/Leo said, "Strip of your stones you'll be nothing but a wither sack of bones."

Mumm-ra was now angered as he glared at Leo with a growl. "The two I still have are more than enough to defeat you!" Mumm-ra roared as he began to levitate in the air as Leon knew what was next.

'The Armor of Plun-Darr.' Leon thought as he knew the only equal to that very armor was the Armor of Omens. The two stones Mumm-Ra possessed began to glow bright as his gauntlet began to spread across his body encasing his being in a dark and demonic suit of armor. As the armor spread across Mumm-ra's body Leon swore that in person this armor was like the very face of evil with its skull design as even Mumm-ra's wings were covered in the armor. 'Ok 1980's Mumm-ra vs 2011 Mumm-ra, 2011 wins.' Leon thought as he knew he really needed the Armor of Omens right about now.

"I might have underestimated you Leo, but not as drastically as you underestimated me." Mumm-ra began as Leon knew Leo was not aware of the Armor of Plun-Darr. "I can harness the power of these stones, I ways you can only dream of." Mumm-ra said as Leon/Leo cursed as Mumm-Ra turned the tables on him.

(With Michael)

Michael was keeping the Eye of Plun-darr in a containment spell as he knew Mumm-Ra could trace them with it and realize what they were doing. That was when he saw the Eye glow brightly as Michael already knew what this meant. "Hey what's with demon eye there?" Scott asked as he handled the guns.

"The Eye it wants to be whole and the only weapon that can do so is currently in Mumm-ra's hands." Michael said as no doubt the Eye of Plun-darr also known as the Conquest Stone was trying to make itself be detected so it can stand equal to its twin.

"Lela floor it because we can't let Mumm-ra sense the stone!" Mijonir called as he rather live to drink his next whisky.

(With Leon/Leo vs Mumm-ra)

Mumm-ra soon sent his purple thunder at Leon/Leo as Leon/Leo tried to block it but the power was too great as the cat was sent back by its power as Leon/Leo hit the wall. "Your rebellion is over Leo!" Mumm-ra called as Leon/Leo hit the floor and struggled to get back up as he glared at Mumm-ra.

"I'm not done yet." Leon/Leo said as he then stood on his feet. Leon/Leo then slid the tip of the Sword of Omens against the floor creating thunder before charging at Mumm-Ra with a roar. The two enchanted sword clashed as Leon/Leo roared in challenge, after all Leon needed to figure out his own ancestry as well as how Leo's bloodline ended up on Earth. The Eye of Thundera responded to Leo as it saw what its former holder had seen in him. To this the Sword released its power as a beam of energy sending Mumm-ra through the wall to where his forces are as many of them were Cats and were defeated.

(In Mumm-Ra's ship)

Lela and the group arrived at Mumm-ra's command deck and saw the Book of Omens before Lela turned to the group. "You guys head to your people I'll get them free!" Lela called as the four looked to her and nodded. After all they needed to be their people's leaders as Lela began putting in the commands. "I need to hurry we need to commandeer Mumm-ra's ship." Lela said as she typed on the holo-pad.

(In the Cells)

The barriers to the cages began to come down as the prisoners were surprised at this as they wondered what was going on as soon Scott, Mijonir, Nilux, Zelda, and Michael arrived as they looked to their races. Soon Lela's face appeared on screen as next to her was a cat's view from Leo and Mumm-ra's battle. "I realize the cats and many of us humans haven't earned it but right now Leo is trying to fight for all your freedoms so please I am asking for your trust. Trust in Leo and in a future where we are not enemies but brothers. Today lets set aside our differences because together we can be free so our children will be free and they may tell the story of how we refused to be enslaved! TILL ALL ARE ONE! (Reference!)" Lela called as the battle continued on the screen.

The beings roared in triumph as they charged through and with their respected leaders leading the charge the Cats still loyal to Mumm-Ra were quickly being overpowered.

(With Lela)

"Now it's all up to you Leo." Lela said with a smile as she began trying to take control of the ship.

(With Leon/Leo vs Mumm-ra)

Lela had just announce the start of the rebellion using the main line of the command room as the message not only went out through the ship but to all fighters and communicators, and for Leon felt joy to hear the that line at the end as it seem, 'All of my weird fantasy is come to life a bit, in a way I'm glad I got zap by that book.'

"You think you free them, but you doom them to die for your rebellion!" Mumm-ra said as he sent out bolt of power at Leon/Leo as he use his cat like reflex, and agility as well jumping/ leaping abilities to dodge the attacks as Leon/Leo landed on his feet again and said, "There not fighting for me, there fighting for themselves!"

At that moment Mumm-ra got a hit in as Leon/Leo took it full force, as Leon felt worse than getting zap by the book, but he could not let it stop him as he keep conscious, but Mumm-ra was on top of him as he reach out his hand and grab the lion cat throw him against a statue of Eve as it broke down and Leon knew he going to feel that after he gets out.

Mumm-ra turn to him and said, "Even if you had my power, you wouldn't know what to do with it."

Leon knew it coming to the climax as he recover a bit and look into his hand at the tech stone and hope it was the same in the show as he stood up and said, "Maybe not, I do know this Gauntlet hold more than my sword."

Putting the stone on top of the Gauntlet as it glowed and absorbed into the gauntlet itself as Leon/Leo lower his arm as the armor started to form all around him, as Leon could feel the power of the tech stone as it similar to the spirit stone but for a whole different purpose.

Leon body was encase in the golden armor as the helmet appeared and engulf in his head Leon look through it as it seem he wasn't wearing helmet but he could feeling and wonder if this is what Ironman sees when he put on his helmet.

Standing fully armor like golden lion as the armor itself seem to give a roar itself as Leon/Leo said the words that Lion-o said in the series, "A light to end the darkness."

Mumm-ra anger could be held back as he charged and flew at Leon/Leo, as the lion himself jump up and flew at Mumm-ra as well as the two clash their weapon, Leon/Leo fire a lightning bolt at Mumm-ra and shot him through the temple.

As Mumm-ra reach the outside Leon/Leo follow through flying at the dark lord like he was superman that had a sword in his hand as the two class weapon, the power between them shot out around destroying any fighters that were flying by and most ground force of Mumm-ra own army.

Mumm-ra over power Leon/Leo and send him down at the mountain side of the temple, Mumm-ra laughs at this thinking he about to win, but not even close as Leon was still trying to get use to this new power and armor.

Mumm-ra came down at Leon/Leo and slash his weapon at him, only for Leon/Leo to dodge it at the last moment and quickly run away to get a better advantage.

Mumm-ra recovers from his miss attack and slash and fire bolt of energy at Leon/Leo as he ran away.

Leon was not getting a good feel of his armor and power he flew up away from the mountain and look back at Mumm-ra as he slash his sword at him, Leon/Leo block it and block another one, and soon enough Leon fired another energy blast at the dark lord and sent him back down and into the temple.

(Inside the temple)

Mumm-ra came crashing in slowly feeling weak now as the battle with Leon/Leo is taking a toll on him, even with the armor, as Leon/Leo came in held the sword of omen with both hand and slash at Mumm-ra know what he'll do, lifted his gauntlet to block it and the two stone got cut out, making Mumm-ra power fade with no stone helping to support him.

Mumm-ra yells, "The stones." As they drop to the ground and transforming back into their original state of a pink diamond and a blue diamond with a pink center.

Mumm-ra body began to smoke as the power to maintain his armor and powerful form fades making him return to the bag of bones, Leon/Leo look down at this as the sword of omens return to dagger form and his armor vanish in a light, as when the helmet was gone, he said, "Now there's the Mumm-ra we all know and love."

Soon picked up the two other stones, and then he join the spirit stone, and the soul stone, with the Tech stone the gauntlet glow a golden light as it shine throughout the temple.

(The command ship)

Lela watch the screen as camera view show the temple glowing a gold color as Lela knew that Leon/Leo has beaten Mumm-ra as she rub her belly and said, "He did it, your father did it."

Everyone race and animal watch the screen as they saw the temple glow gold knowing they have won and the Cats surrender soon enough.

(With Leon/Leo and Mumm-ra)

Leon/Leo glared down at Mumm-Ra as he knew it was time to end this. But first he needs to be seen by those he had enslaved and what better place than his own ship.

'Awaiting your orders commander." The Cat said as Leon/Leo looked to him.

"Take Mumm-Ra and transport him to his ship we'll end him there." Leon/Leo said knowing a monster like Mumm-Ra shouldn't even have a trial with how dangerous he was.

(Later at Mumm-Ra's ship)

Mumm-Ra was restrained in the command deck of his ship as he glared at the people gathered to see the end of Mumm-Ra. Leon had jumped all the way here to his perspective as Mumm-Ra glared as Leon/Leo glared at him. "Any last words tyrant?" Leon/Leo asked as Mumm-Ra smirked.

"Even if you succeed in destroying me none of you will survive long to enjoy it and if you do another will simply take my place and finish what I started." Mumm-Ra said as Leon swore Mumm-Ra was talking about Damian somehow.

Leo raised the gauntlet up as it glowed gold with all four stones. Soon a mystic circle appeared on its palm as it began to gather light and holy energies no doubt to put an end to Mumm-Ra's tyranny. "For everything that ever was and everything that ever will be, may you never bring your evil and blight upon this universe again!" Leon/Leo roared as the power finished building up as it gained a holy flame in it.

Leon/Leo pointed the gauntlet down at Mumm-ra feet and as he cover himself from the light but only to meet with a blast of holy energy up at him as he scream out in pain before his being turn black and disintegrate up in the air as his scream echo out until they stop and the pillar of holy energy stop.

Soon enough everyone cheers out in celebration, as Mumm-ra is gone for good as Leon can guess Leo summon forth enough power that could kill an immortal or near immortal being as he felt a bit winded after that himself as Lela came up to him, grab hold of his arm and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

(Scene break)

After a moment of things getting settle down as some of Leo people came up to him and held up the dark gauntlet and the container with the eye of Plun-Darr as they asked, "What should we do with these my lord?"

Leo reach out and taken the container with the eye and said "I'll hold on to this, as I do need to divide the stones up between everyone, as the gauntlet… take it to the smith and spell casters, and tell them to destroy it. The last thing we need is someone wielding a weapon like this again," Leo order as Leon knew he wasn't the one talking now as it seem Leo has control again as the observer thought, 'Great, I'm like this again, wonder what's going to happen next, sense I didn't fight Mumm-ra on the ship, it not going to be crashing down any time soon.'

The cat bow and headed off to where the smith and spell casters are at as Lela pull on his shoulder and said, "Hey, sense you do have a moment, can we talk now?"

Leo smile to his beloved and said, "Of course." He hook the container to his belt with the claw gauntlet that still hold the stones as they walk off together.

They walk up to a more private area as they begin to talk as Leo begin to say, "What did you need to say before?"

Lela took a breath and held Leo's hand and said, "With Mumm-ra gone and now there peace in the universe, it's a good time to think about the future."

"I have a few things plan already, after the stones are divided, we can focus on getting every race and animal back to their home world, and you with your brother and all of your people as well," Lela giggle and said, "What about you? What plan do you have for your future?"

"Hard to say… guess return to Thundera and help my people recover from Mumm-ra rule. Someone has to lead them," Leo said as then Lela said, "Right, but how about starting a family?"

"A Family… I never thought of starting one, then again I never found special lion," Leo said with the last part as a bit of a joke as Lela understood it as she pull him in and place his hand near her chest.

"You found one alright, and she right here," Lela said as Leo look to her and said, "Are you sure? Humans and Cats haven't been on the best of terms."

Lela smile and said, "Well I guess they will have to get used to it, and beside I can't have a child without his father."

Leo gave a small laugh and said, "Yea I guess s-… wait father?"

'Say what?!' Leon thought as he just heard what he just heard as Lela lead Leo's hand to her belly, and with the stones at Leo's side he could feel life growing in Lela as he said, "How?"

"Our first night together, I don't know how it could be, but it is… and this child is yours… are you happy?" Lela said as she gave a small sad expression, but instead of upset or mad, Leo was happy as he pull Lela in a hug and said, "I'm a father… I'm going to be father!"

Leo lifted Lela up and spin her around before putting her down and hug her once more as Leo said, "I'm… never been… this happy before."

Lela smile as she patted his back and stay like this for a little while, until an alarm started to go off.

'WARNING- WARNING- WARNING!'

Almost all the screen around the ship had those words saying over and over again as Leo and Lela let off and check to what is going on as Leon thought, 'What going on? I know Mumm-ra death didn't happen in the show… did that evil fucker have a plan or something?'

Lela went on to some controls and started to access the ship main system and see why the alarm are going off as Lela said, "Something wrong, I can shut off the alarm, wait there a recording of something, it's playing automatically."

Soon enough the screen change to Mumm-ra face as Leo ran to the edge and said, "Mumm-ra?"

"This message is too all the traitors that have betrayed me. I never knew if there were any, but that don't mean I did prepared for such a thing," Mumm-ra message played as everyone started to worry.

"I have many of my private guards to set many devices around the ship, as never really told anyone, Not even my Commander, for they are rig to explode if I haven't return and put in the code for it to disarm all of them," Mumm-ra recorder said as people and other races started panicking as Leo curse Mumm-Ra name as he should have known the dark lord would have something plan as he went on.

"If I do not live, then nether can everyone else, so good bye and may; you all die horribly," Mumm-ra said before his message ends and a timer show on the screen, 15 seconds.

Everyone try to get way and find an escape pod or maybe a ship to get off the command ship before it blows, as the cats the held onto the Dark gauntlet drop it by everyone panicking and shoving others around.

With Lela working as fast as she could, trying to find any bombs Mumm-ra has planted as she said, "I can try and find any bomb and hopefully override them before they go off."

She type fast as she could and found them very soon and started the override as she sent the override with the load screen to show every bomb go from red to green for disarm but showing on the loading screen, it not going to stop all of them as the timer still went off going-

*BOOM!

A bomb went off and open a tear off into space with some people got suck up in as they were near it, and the dark gauntlet was sucked up as well and headed off down into the planet below.

Many other bombs went off destroy the engine and the main controls as Everyone held on tight, as Leo hold Lela close to him, as Lela was still near the controls she hit a few buttons and activate the shield as it appear on the main screen.

*Shields on

The shield cover the ship and made an air tight hold so nothing else was getting sucked out into space as Leo let go of Lela and said to her, "Damage report?"

Lela check the controls and said, "Some internal damage and some damage outside the ship as well. Power is at 37 percent, so the shield will hold for now."

The alarm started to go off again as Leo and Lela heard it as Leon thought, 'Is this going the way I think it is?'

Lela check and saw the screen of the planet below the moon as Lela started the say, "Engine are out, and we were slowly moving down to the planet below we got caught in its gravity pull, and were on a crash course for-

"Gainos!," Leon and Leo said at the same time, as the ship started to shake as Lela started to check the shield and said, "shields are dropping, I'm redirecting all power to shield, but it's unknown how long they would hold, before or after we enter the atmosphere."

Leo didn't know what to do as it seem everything is going wrong all at the same time, and the first thing on his mind was Lela as he look to her, he didn't not know what could happen to her, if they survive who would say their child won't.

Looking down at the gauntlet, and the eye of Plun-darr as Leon thought is, 'He's not going to do what I think he's going to do, is he?'

Leo put on the Claw Gauntlet and lifted up the container and smash it open and held up the 2nd eye as it started to glow to Leo touch as Leon thought, 'He is. HEY DON'T DO IT! YOU'LL KILL YOURSELF. HEY ARE YOU LISTENING!?'

'He cannot hear you young lord, what he'll do will be his own doing, where you cannot interfere,' Jaga voice spoken out to Leon.

Lela turn to Leo when she hears the Container being destroy as she look to him with her eyes widening and said, "Leo what are you doing?!"

Leo put the eye of Plun-darr onto the Gauntlet and soon enough it glow a gold and red color as Leo soon felt the effect of it as the eye of Thundera glowing as well causing him to scream in pain as the power coursed through him as Leo felt like he was dying a horrible painful death.

"Leo, stop it, you cannot use the power of all the stone to save everyone!" Lela said to him as Leo said, "Maybe not everyone… but I can save you."

He shot out a beam from the gauntlet to an open space of the area they were in as the beam hit the air as it started to ripple and open up a hole of time and space to an open field area as Leon saw through it and sees a land mark he's familiar with as he thought, 'Notre Dame?... He open a portal to Earth?'

Lela saw the gateway as says, "What is this?"

Leo is breathing hard as he didn't have much time, as he shove Lela through the portal as went through, as people on the other side gasp as they witness a person just stumble through as Lela got up she look back at Leo as he was looking very much in pain and called out, "Leo!"

Leo smile and said, "Take care of our child… I will always love you Lela."

"Leo no-!" Lela yell as she was about to go back but the gate way close as Leo was in tears and said, "Goodbye."

The Eye of Plun-darr glow and started to shake itself off before it shot out of the Gauntlet and out of the ship, passing the shield and following the one thing that can hold its power as it flew down into the swamp lands and into the portal to hades.

Leo falls down to his knees as he felt his body was about to be destroy by the power of the stone, and then soon pass out as the ship falls down into Gainos.

Soon there was a bright flash of light as Leon shielded his eyes as he felt the ground at his feet change before the light died and found himself with Lion-O and Jaga's spirit in the room in that limbo place. "I believe you could already tell what had happened afterword's young lord." Jaga said as Leon looked.

"Yeah the book's records were damaged and enough of the crew survived with the shields maxed out to begin civilization anew." Leon said as Jaga nodded.

"Yes but there was more, your ancestor from when Marianne had told me had left on newly built ships with the other Cats with the Sword of Omens and the Eye of Thundera to this worlds sister planet and on its soils revived Thundera as a shining empire protecting the universe and its sister world before it fell." Jaga said as Leon felt Ciela had a hand in it.

"What happened to the Sword of Plun-darr and that other eye?" Leon asked as Lion-O looked.

"Yeah if that Eye of Plun-darr thing has all the same powers as the Eye of Thundera why didn't it get destroyed?" Lion-O asked as Jaga looked.

"The two eyes were created together so they can only be truly destroyed together, if you destroy one it will only reform." Jaga said as Leon found it made sense. "As for the Sword and the Eye they both ended up in Hades and Michael went down to find them and his other daughter but never returned." Jaga said as Leon looked.

'Did Michael find Ciela hoping to save her but she killed him instead or did she watch him die?' Leon wondered as there must have been a deep emotion for Ciela to try and become Eve once more. "Ok so now that I finished that trial did I pass?" Leon asked as Lion-O looked.

"I think you passed with flying colors you did do better than I did at the time so that's a bonus in my opinion." Lion-O said as Leon smiled.

"Yes now for the real tests." Jaga said as he raised his staff and opened a portal. "Young Lord though I must inform you once you enter your memories of these trials in your world will be removed since it's not testing your memory but the skills they represent and your test of Strength though I shall warn you will be different from Lion-O's and you will have another extra test to undergo in the end." Jaga said as Leon nodded.

"I'm ready Jaga." Leon said as Jaga nodded.

"Then enter." Jaga said as Leon nodded and entered the portal.

"Let's hope he can do it the kid could really use it after that shell shock he got." Lion-O said as Marianne appeared from her hiding spot.

"He has to, or else we'll all die." Marianne said as Jaga looked.

"Though I feel that Mumm-ra was right in one aspect after all this time another did take his place, I fear that even if we destroy our Mumm-ra then eventually another will take his place as well." Jaga said as Marianne nodded.

"I just wish me and my sister didn't have this kind of relationship when I just wanted to be her sister and her mine." Marianne said as she did love Ciela but if worse comes to worse than Marianne would have to put her down.

"I pray that you are able to save your twin from herself." Jaga said as Marianne chuckled at Jaga's little unknown joke.

"Don't tell that to an Angel we are the ones who answer prayers." Marianne said as Lion-O couldn't help but see himself in Marianne.

'Ok first thing I'm doing next time I see Tygra is apologizing for all the years I've got into fights with him and tell him I appreciate all he did for me and tell him he really was more deserving of the crown.' Lion-O thought as he didn't want him and Tygra to end up like Marianne and this Ciela.

(With Lion)

Leon found himself in what he assumed was the first town he, Leina, and Risty had stopped at as Leon looked around seeing it was deserted. "What took you?" Came a voice as Lion looked and saw none other than Nowa and Rana there as Leon was surprised.

"Nowa Rana is that you two?" Leon asked as Rana smiled.

"Nope we just took the forms you'd be more familiar and comfortable with is all." Rana said as Leon understood as he was grateful they weren't dead.

"Ok then what do I have to do to pass this trial?" Leon asked as he looked to Rana and Nowa's copies.

"Simple you have to steal this key from us." Nowa said as she held the key up as it was a gold key with the Thundercats symbol on it. Leon tried to grab it but his hand went right through Nowa as soon they vanished as many more Rana and Nowa's appeared around him as they were all over the town.

"Sorry it's not that simple you have to find the real us among all these fakes and steal the key from us." All the Rana's in the area said as Leon cursed himself.

"Whiskers." Leon said as if he was a descendant of Leo then might as well say his ancestors famous curse word for when they are in a tough situation. Soon enough the game of hide, seek, and steal the key is on, as Leon reach out for the children pair and they vanish, went for another one and they vanish.

Leon is getting frustrated and said, "How did lion-o do this the first time?"

Leon search his memories but somehow came up blank, and then he remember what Jaga said and said, "Oh right, they are erase. I need to remember…"

Leon stop himself as he face palm himself and said, "What the point of remember it if you're going to forget it later."

Leon went on the hunt as he jump onto roof tops, when through windows and doors and still came up empty handed as Nowa and Rana mock him saying as Rana said, "Are you really trying?"

Leon leap at him and went through him as the lord himself went into a barrel as Rana from a different area said, "Look before you leap!" Then he ran off laughing as Leon yells, "Oh come on!"

Got himself out of the barrel and then started to run down the streets and try to find any more copies and the real Nowa and Rana, as then he suddenly tripped by a staff that came at his feet and landed face first in the dirt as Nowa step out and said, "Watch where you run as well, or you could get hurt as this place is more real than you think.

Lifts his head and spat out dirt and said, "Great, this place is so real even the dirt taste like dirt, can I get water to wash it out maybe?"

Soon enough a gallon of water was pour onto his head and then a bucket fell on his head as Rana sat on top of a building and laugh as Nowa said, "Ask and you shall receive."

Leon got up and took the bucket off his head and spit out the water, at least he didn't have the dirt taste in his mouth anymore.

"I am so spanking you two, even if you aren't the real Nowa and Rana," Leon said as walk up to one of them and just got kick from the side by Nowa as she then jump away.

Rana laugh and said, "If you know where you're looking first, try trusting your instinct a bit more."

Rana ran off as Leon got up again and rub his side as he said, "Trust my instinct, I'm more following my gut kind of guy, but then again that came off of a show." He had seen a lot of NCIS as he does like to see Gibbs in action.

Leon whip himself down a bit and then give a whiff of himself before he jerk his head to the other side and said, "Man I stink, and my enhance smell doesn't help."

And then I suddenly it hit him like a ton of bricks and said, "Smell… that can work."

He close his eyes and smell all around him and picked up something, as he walked around sniffing every copies of every fake Nowa and Rana as they vanish after he pass them.

AS he walk up to 'a' Rana and give did a sniff of him and the key he held as he said, "Looking for this?"

After a moment Leon stood up and walk away saying, "Nope." add popping sound at the 'P' as at the same time that Rana vanish.

(With fake Rana and Nowa)

As they waited on a roof top as Nowa said, "He's taking his time, isn't he?"

"You think he would get the key at all?" Rana asked as a voice behind them say, "I kind of already got it."

The two were surprise by this as they turn around and saw Leon holding the key and said, "Next time, don't on the ground next to you… if there is a next time, and also bathe because I smell you a mile away, literally." Pointed to his nose at the end of that, as the two smile at him and soon enough the door way reveal itself with the key hole in the middle of it.

Leon put the key in it and unlock as the door way open up as Leon smile as he was about to go through until, "Before I go I got something I need to do."

(A moment later)

'SPANK-SPANK!'

Nowa and Rana rub there bums as it was double for Nowa since like always she lacked panties as Leon smile and said, "I did say I'll spank your butts, now I have cya."

Leon vanish through the pathway as Nowa and Rana look back and said at the same time, "Jerk."

(With Leina real world)

Leina arrived at the ruined house as she saw Marianne there as she sat on a log as nearby was Leon knocked out in a magic circle. Leina knew something was up but slightly calmed down as she saw the Eye of Thundera was glowing while a book and the soul stone glowed as well.

"Don't worry Leina." Marianne said as Leina looked to the Angel. "Leon will pass this trial and come out stronger than before." Marianne said as Leina nodded as she had her reason to get stronger and it was Leon.

"Then I must also get stronger and only Echidna can help me." Leina said before heading to the ruined hut.

(With Leon)

Leon found himself in what looked like the elven forest but in a large clearing as he looked around trying to figure out which way to go. "Lost my King?" Shizuka was heard as Leon looked and saw Shizuka and quickly realized something.

"Oh my God the trial is a race isn't it?" Leon asked as Shizuka nodded.

"Yeap the trial is that you have to beat me to the tree over there and get the key." Shizuka said pointing at the tree across the large clearing that had the tree on its highest branch as Leon knew Shizuka was like Cheetara with her speed. "But don't worry my king I'll give you a five minute head start." Shizuka said as Leon looked at the clearing before a maze rose from the ground as Leon was wide eyed.

"Whiskers." Leon cursed as he saw Shizuka smile.

"Tick tock my King." Shizuka said as Leon quickly began running through the maze.

Running through ahead as Leon said to himself, "Okay, what was the first rule of doing a maze? Always follow left?"

Leon went left and follow the path that lead him down the road which lead to a dead end as Leon said to himself, "Great job Leon you lead yourself at a dead end, what next a fork in the road?"

Leon quickly turn around and ran down the path where he came and went the other way and after some time coming zooming around in front of him was Shizuka as she said with a smile, "Times up."

"I get the feeling this maze is rig somehow," Leon said as Shizuka said, "Not really, you just too simple minded, and without anyone leading the way, you'll be just lost on the way and right into a dead end."

"I hit few bump but never a dead end," Leon said and then suddenly Shizuka lean in and kiss him on the lips for a moment and said, "Then try a less bumpy way then."

Shizuka smile as she walk away and said, "See you at the end of the maze my king."

She zooms away and Leon is left alone and said, "I know she's not the real one… but that kiss was nice."

Leon ran trying to follow the path Shizuka went as he follow a kick up dirt path until they started to settle and it lead him to a another dead end as he said, "Okay now I know this is rig."

Fell back and caught his breath for a moment and said, "How can I get out of here if everything is going against me."

Leon close his eyes for a moment and he suddenly begin to hears sound, a buzzing down, like an electric razor or maybe a gardening electric tool which didn't make sense at all, and then he was getting a more clearer sound as the buzz of an razor or tool sounded more like Buzzing.

He open his eyes and saw a hive… just like the one he use to throw at Claudette, as he was lucky he just he grappling of a tree to dodge her attack just in time by swinging… and then it came to him.

It's a race, not a maze game, and who says what path to take as he said, "I got it."

(Later)

Leon is using his grabbling hook on his gauntlet to swing himself across the trees as he did the Tarzan roar as he swings at least once.

Once he reach the full swing, he pull hard to get his grappling free, as it reel back in fast and the he shot it out again and swing over on the next branch.

He hears rushing movement as Leon turn his head slightly he sees Shizuka coming in fast to the center of the maze as she look up at Leon swinging around like monkey, as she could help but smile to this as she picked up the pace to make the challenge hard enough for Leon.

As the Thundera lord himself saw Shizuka running faster, he look ahead for the furthest branch that he could reach, as he spotted one, he gave a look and said, "I got one shot at this."

Leo came to a full swing as he got his Grappling hook to let off as they reel back in again, as he flew in the air for a moment, he took aim as he got close enough he fire the grappling again and… HOOKED.

Leon put all his weight and size to the swing itself to make himself go faster, as he flew in reaching the center area as Shizuka did, as she started to run up the tree, Leon came in swinging and then

'Snatch!'

Grab the key before Shizuka reach it, as she jump down and landed on her feet and look up at Leon as he did the Tarzan yell once more, he is enjoying himself as Shizuka can tell and then she soon relies Leon wasn't paying attention of where he is swinging into as she point and said, "Leon, Look out for that-

'BAM!'

-tree" Shizuka said as she sees Leon implanted in a tree as he started to mumble, "Tarzan turn into George somehow. Ahh."

He fell back and fall down as Shizuka came running in and caught him as she said, "Got you my king."

(In the book of omens limbo)

As everyone that witness that, Lion-o cringes and said, "Good thing I flew in on a bird instead, yikes."

Jaga was silent as he saw how Leon did that trial as it was strange but effective, only wish is that Leon would have keep paying attention to where he was swinging into.

Marianne could not help but laugh as her charged, as sure it was dumb not the best thing to do but hey whatever make people laugh it just pure gold, and she said, "I wish I could record that somehow!"

(Back to trial)

Shizuka lay down Leon carefully as he recover from that last swing as she said, "Very impressive my king. Swinging from tree to tree and I thought you were just a lion."

Leon smile and said, "Well I am more than part cat, I'm also part ape, thank my human origins." He remembers one of his science classes in high school, not one of his best classes as he still wonders how he passed high school.

Leon got back on his feet as Leon look to Shizuka and said, "Hey would mind telling how many trials I got left, my memories got wiped and now I got a headache."

Shizuka giggles and said, "Almost halfway is what I can tell you, but they won't be as easy at all, so do be careful."

Soon enough the lock pathway open up as it show the key hole as Leon looked at it as before he went to it he turn to Shizuka and said, "I will, take care of yourself."

Shizuka giggle again and lean in close and gave him a peak on the lips and said, "I will, but you need to take care of yourself first."

Leon nods and then he turn to the portal as he held the key up and put it in the keyhole as the path way open up for him again as he went on through vanishing. With Shizuka gave a disappointed sigh and said, "I did wish to have my time with him before he left."

(Next trial)

Leon came through and found himself in what looked like a castle and saw a ring there as Leon had one thought as he also saw Cattleya's giant slayer stabbed into the ground.

"Oh boy." Leon said not liking where this was going.

That was when Cattleya appeared from behind the sword holding a sword about the same size as the Sword of Omens. "Glad you made it this far." Cattleya said as Leon looked.

"Yeah... this is a trial of strength is it?" Leon asked as Cattleya smiled and nodded before throwing the sword to Leon who caught it. Cattleya then picked up a large hour glass as she carried it to the side.

"This is a Trial of Strength and for this trial you need to get me out of the ring before the sands run out without me cleaving you in two." Cattleya said as she set the sand glass up and grabbed her sword.

"But you're like 20 times my size and 15 of it is in assets." Leon called shocked as he was talking about how Cattleya's body is built in her three sizes.

"Well won't know until you try so better get started I'm not getting and smaller." Cattleya said before charging at Leon and slashing at him with the Giant Slayer just as Leon dodged.

Leon roll to his feet and jump in the air with his sword raise to strike down only for Cattleya block the attack with ease and throw Leon back.

Flip in the air and landed on his feet before he charged and moved to the side to dodge the giant slayer before it chop him like a piece of fire wood.

Still went at Cattleya as she try to pick her up, but it's very awkward, as her breast cover his head, and his hand were pretty much groping her butt.

"Oh Leon, you can't, I'm married," Cattleya said as Leo let off for two reason as one he wasn't making any headway of lifting her up, and two he wanted to avoid that kind of stuff as he said, "Stop making it weird! It hard enough to figure out where to grab you at."

"Why not use your sword," Cattleya said as she also give a giggle as Leon gave a deadpan look and said, "D-did you just do an innuendo?"

"Maybe," Cattleya said with a smile as she swing her Giant slayer around and knock him back as he landed on his back, and said as he sat up, "Come on if I die here, I die for real… great now I'm kind of quoting matrix."

Leon got up quickly and charged at Cattleya once more and jump again this time do a drop kick at Cattleya only for her to block it with her weapon once more as he bounce off and saw the sand of the hour glass running out as Cattleya said, "Tick tock your majesty."

Leon caught his breath and said, "It's impossible to push you out of this ring!"

"If his majesty says so, then it must be!" Cattleya said as she stab her weapon in ground, let go of her giant slayer, and came at Leon and pull him in a crushing hold of some making him drop his sword, as she grab him at his waste and pull him close into her assets.

As Leon saw what position he was in, as he felt like a small kid in pair of a mother breast like you see in a manga porno as he said, "Not good-not good- not good."

AS he try to pull himself free as Cattleya said, "You can't get free that wa- oh!" She said that last part in surprise as she felt something hard pushing against her breath as she said, "Is that another sword or your just happy to see me?"

Leon blush in embarrassment and said, "Well you're a beautiful woman for any lucky man to have, and you have large breath, in which you're current holding me against them, but I got to say… Let me go I don't want to die with a boner!"

"As you wish, my king," Cattleya said as she drop him as he fall on his butt and said, "Ow, take is easy, I said let me go not drop me."

"Then next time be more specific on your orders," Cattleya said as Leon was on his feet rubbing his butt and then he starting to realize something as he said, "Wait, order? Uh Cattleya?"

"Yes my king," Cattleya said in an almost obedient as Leon hear that and now to confirm it as he said, "Would you step out of the ring right now?"

"Of course, your majesty," She said as she step out of the ring before the sand ran out and Leon has pass the trial as he said, "I'm confuse here, I thought this was a test of strength not how to order people otherwise, would it be cheating?"

"Strength in muscle and strength in leadership are two different things; it's not cheating if you're testing the strength of your command," Cattleya said as she walk up to him and also said, "And maybe the test of your Stamina, if you wish it so?"

Leon is weird out by this and said, "Okay now I know you're not the real Cattleya, she not this flirty."

"Oh my king, you got a lot to learn about women, it may be true I'm not acting exactly like her, but I am acting more as her than she would want too."

"Wait… your saying that…" Leon said as he was slowly getting what she is saying as she understood what he meant as she gave a nod and said, "She very much care for you, but she cannot act out on her true feeling."

Leon face palm himself and said, "Great, and I just wanted to be friendly with her, not trying to get into her pants."

Cattleya lean down to him and said, "It's not your fault entirely, you're very handsome and you're good with people and children, as people respect and love you for it."

Kiss his forehead before presenting the key as Leon looked at it as Cattleya said, "Now take the key and move on to your next trial."

Leon took it and said, "Thanks I guess." Cattleya smile and said, "No problem."

Soon enough the next pathway open showing the key hole as Leon walk up to it and unlock it as he vanish through an the portal vanish.

Cattleya smile as she said, "He does have a lot to learn about a woman's heart, that I hope he can learn about it soon."

(With the two cats and one Angel)

"That lucky little cat." Lion-O said as he saw Leon practically had woman drawn to him. Lion-O may be royalty but he was still young so it's no wonder he envied Leon.

"Don't worry Lion-O you'll find your queen one day... or a Queen and concubines." Marianne said patting Lion-O on the back as she knew what had happened with Cheetara before and in turn making it worse for the young Lion.

(Back with Leon)

Leon arrived at his next trial as when he arrived he was wide eyed as he looked and saw a large tree bended and curled around itself as Leon saw a bell up top. "Well look who made it this far." Came a voice as Leon saw Risty up on the tree as Leon swore these trials were becoming harder and harder with each trial.

"Ok Risty what's the test keeping my cool beating you to the bell, or just putting up with taunts." Leon asked as he looked to Risty.

"What do you think naked king?" Risty asked as she smirked at Leon.

"All of the above?" Leon asked as he knew this would be difficult since he didn't have the cat reflexes to climb like a cat.

Risty jump down with ease and said, "Got that right son of a whore."

Leon twitch to that commit as something in his memories has awaken from his deep subconscious, something he had buried long ago before coming to this world.

Risty face the tree and said, "You know how they game work, or are you just that retarded."

Leon hand started to twitch and said, "No I'm not, I know how this game works." He remembers from the start of the series where Lion-o and Tygra competed against each other with Lion-o ended up losing by falling into the water and Tygra ringing the bell.

The two got ready at the start as Leon asked, "So is there another person here to say ready-set g-

"GO!" Risty said as she took off and Leon twitch to that and started to follow using his claw gauntlet to help climb up and his other hand grab hold any groves of the tree.

Leon caught up to Risty fast, as now they stood neck and neck as they climb up, as she smile over to him and said, "Come on little pussy, can the little kitty go higher?"

Leon growl a bit and jump at her maybe to push her off, but she jump up away at the last moment as Leon miss and landed on a branch.

Risty mace came shooting at Leon feet as it wrap around his feet making him trip as he grab hold of the tree branch before he fell, he look up at Risty with her weapon in hand as Leon said, "Hey, I thought this was a no weapon game?!"

"It's not a game bitch, this is a test and if you can't figure out what to do then you will lose more than just the sword or the book, you'll lose your life, and beside you have a weapon, it's on your arm," Risty pointed to the Claw gauntlet before Leon looked at it and sighed as he forgot it could be a weapon with the sharp point but he really never use it as a weapon before.

Leon drop down before he pointed his grappling out and fire as they grab hold of a higher branch as he'd reel himself up as Risty smile and she said, "Now we're cooking."

She went after Leon as she caught up quickly using her Mace Reel abilities to hit near Leon to trip him up a bit as Risty said, "Come son of a bitch, make mama proud."

Leon stop as he felt his arm twitching a lot more as Risty took advantage of it as she shot out her mace head near his hand, breaking the spot he was hold as he fall down, he quickly caught himself as he use his claw Gauntlet to grab hold of the tree and he slides down and landed on a branch now being very low to Risty.

Leon mind wasn't on the trial or the game, as flash back of his pass came to him as he remember his child hood, as school yard kid bully him, but with action… but their words.

Leon kneel down and put his back against the bark of the tree, as his entire being is shaking, as he put his hands to his ears and said, "Shut up, Just shut up!"

The sound of laughter came to him as he hear the words in a song form, 'Mama's boy. He's a little pussy! He can't his mother's a whore is as he's a little bitch.'

"SHUT UP!" Leon yelled and tears started to run down his face as he started to say, "My mom isn't like that."

Risty didn't move as she just look down at Leon trying to face an inner demon of his, as this trial isn't just him trying to accomplish, it about him trying to overcome his weakness as for this trial isn't time base.

(In limbo)

Lion-o looked at Leon the way he acting as he knew he didn't act like this when it was him against Tygra as he asked, "What wrong with him?"

Marianne had a sad face as she said, "He lived with his mother, while his father is a criminal. It was well known of Leon mother friend's knew all about her and her crush, and when they found out they had a one night stand with him before he was arrested, it just a talk all around, and make it worse, their children were the cruelties to him and use what they heard from their parents to mock him. As Words hurt more than just action as wounds heal and scars fades, words could scare you for your entire life."

Lion-o is shocked by this as he could not understand how children could be that curlew, or even have their parent let such thing keep going, as Jaga said, "She is corrected, as wounds heal and make people fight another day making action of violent vanish, the words of people cannot be undone and can forever remain within your mind."

Lion-o clinch his fist and said, "I may have fail my trial, but I let Tygra get to me, but him… he didn't deserve to have all that put on him, he deserve a fair chance!"

"And he is, but it's all up to him to overcome his fears for him to go on, as do you see the women waiting for him?" Marianne said as she pointed out Risty as Lion-o look back and he sees her not going for the bell.

"She giving him a fair chance, as it would be too curlew to do such a thing to him. You fail because of pride, if he fails it would be mostly of his own fears as these trials act as according to the person and specter with him, not the rules itself," Marianne said as Lion-o started to get it, as too all the time he acted and lead his team into an ambush or near death was because of his own action as he sees Leon a more steady person and think clearly of his action.

To the time he face Cattleya he could have slash at he with his sword, but he didn't and try to push her out, or lift and throw her out, he also try to make the best of it while enjoying himself to the like when he was swinging around, as Leon take things seriously, he also make the best of it as well as what he sees in Leon, is a good person.

Lion-o sighed and said, "Can I request something?"

Marianne look at him as she said, "Hm?"

Lion-o sighed and said, "Can you give him a better memory, a happier one?"

Marianne shakes her head and said, "I can't give memories to people as that would act against their free will, I can whip them for time as such action is not going against free will, it's to test it… but I can help him remember a memory, if I can get the right pray."

Lion-o nods as he understood as he going to help Leon out just this once, as he remember what Jaga taught him about praying when he was younger as he put his hands together and lean into them and use his silent word.

As lion-o being glowed and came out like twinkling stars as they floated in the air before they floated over to Marianne as she took in the pray she smile and said, "For your kindness of your prayer, Leon shall be given the same."

Marianne snap her fingers as pink star appeared and then shot out to Leon is at.

(Leon)

AS He keep his hand to his ears, not noticing the pink star as it touch his forehead and his mind started to remember something else.

(Flashback)

With Leon when he is younger, holding his backpack as he stood in front of his mother was crying, with his mother face cover by the sunset light as she was kneeling down to him saying, "Don't cry Leon, I know you're a big boy, and big boys don't cry."

Leon try to stop but it was hard to hold back his tears and he sob a bit as his mother pull him in a hug and rub his head as she said to him, "They are nothing but words, they don't understand what they know of Leon. So you should not listen to their words."

"H-h-how c-can I?" Leon said as he shutter a bit through his sobs as his mother let off as she gave a warm smile and said, "Just don't listen to them, block them out, and their words can't reach you."

Leon's mother reach over to her side and then pick up something and said, "But if you have trouble, use these as I know they can help." Leon looks down in his mother's hand and saw a pair of ear plugs as Leon took them in his hand, his crying soften up as his mother smile to him and said, "That's my big man."

(Flashback over)

Leon stop his crying as his mind was coming back from that episode he had as he put his hands down, he felt his hand touch something soft, and moist.

He pick it up and saw it was tree moss, as it grow on tree in wet areas, the stuff was soft and thick, Leon had a thought as he pull apart some moss and squish it between his fingers and stuff them in his ears before getting up.

Risty look to Leon as he started to climb back up as Risty said, "You done cry? If not I'll give you a reason to cry."

Leon didn't respond as Risty felt a bit ignored as she said, "You listening to me? I'm talking to you little bitch!"

Leon did say a word as he keep climbing back up until he reaches to where Risty is at as she yells at him, "Hey, mama's boy are you going to answer me or do I have to get personal?"

Leon looked to Risty as he put his hand to his, like he was having trouble hearing her as he said, "Did you say something?"

Risty saw the moss covering his ears as she smile and said, "You're smarter than I thought, but you're still a pussy."

"I'm sorry, you need to speak louder, as all I hear is Bla-bla, I'm about to lose," Leon said as Risty raise an eyebrow as Risty said, "Oh and how will you do th-

Leon didn't let her finish as he shot up his grappling hooks and flew up as Risty said, "That little… I am so going to enjoy this." Giving a smile as she now follow up.

With Leon coming to the end of the line, he ran up the tree and jump over onto he branch he hook to and reel back the rest of the way and then went back to climbing.

Risty came swinging in on her Mace before leaping up and off as the head of the mace return to the staff part of the weapon, as she came at Leon.

Ready her weapon to smack him as she change it to electric mace, with Leon did watch his back with his limited hearing he use his eyes to keep an eye out for Risty, as he saw her coming down at him, he raise his Gauntlet to block it as the two collided, with the Risty before him wasn't using her mark power Leon had the upper hand as he tap in into his and throw her back.

As Risty fell she aim her mace at a tree branch to get up, as she fire the mace head piece and try to grab hold, until something intercept with it as the four claw grappling hooks hit against it making it thrown off course and miss Risty aimed branch.

She look to Leon who had block the way for her to recover back up as she gave a smile before she fell into the waters.

Leon soon reach the top and saw the bell, as he ran up to it and then did a flying kick to it, as it reach it rang out and soon came out the golden key, as Leon jump for it, and grab it in midair as he descend into the waters below.

After a bit both Risty and Leon came out of the water, wet and smiling, as Leon took the moss from out of his ears before he toss them to the side as he said, "Looks like I did it."

"You did just that, So congratulation, and here is your reward," Risty said as she pull him into her breast like what happen to Leon at the border as his face turn red and struggle to get free before he push Risty off it him.

Leon took a breath and said, "Will you stop that, why do you keep doing that? I could have suffocated you know?"

"It was a harmless jester, no need to get mad, and beside I thought you like it after the first time?" Risty said as Leon rub his head a bit and said, "Sorry, I'm having a bit of a rough day with all the running, near death, and crash into a tree. My day isn't what people call amazing."

Risty smile and said, "Well then I hope ready for what happen next as the trials isn't over yet as you have one more left, and believe me it isn't going to be easy as any other at all."

The gate way open as Leon turn to it and held out the key as he waited a moment as Risty step close to him and gave a kiss on the cheek and said, "For luck."

Leon face her and said, "Thanks." He soon walk up to the portal and then put the key in as the pathway open, he vanish through with the portal vanish as Risty looked to where it the portal once stood as she said, "He really going to need it to what comes next."

(With Lion-O, Marianne, and Jaga)

The trio watched as Lion-O was wondering what that last test is as Marianne looked to Lion-O. "What's this last test anyway?" Lion-O asked as he looked to Marianne.

"The toughest one yet, it's a test that will truly see if he is worthy of being the next king." Marianne said as she watched this trial unfold.

"Let us hope he may pass this trial ahead." Jaga said as he watched this hoping Leon would succeed.

(With Leon)

Leon came through the portal and saw what looked like a coliseum as he saw a throne seat above as Leon had a hunch but this just might be Gainos's capital where they host the Queens Blade Tournament. Leon soon saw the Sword of Omens stabbed in the center of the field as Leon walked over to it and looked at it wondering if it was the real one. As Leon walked over to it he put his hand on the hilt before drawing the sword as he then looked it over and saw it was in fact the Sword of Omens. Leon soon felt a presence behind him as he turned around and to his shock he saw none other than Leina and to Leon's surprise instead of her normal sword and shield she was wielding what looked like the classic Sword of Omens and Claw Gauntlet from the 1980's version of Thundercats.

*Insert Roxas Boss Theme: The Other Promise

"What?" Leon asked as Leina drew the sword from the gauntlet that looked more like a lions paw and got ready.

"Don't you realize Leon this is your final Trial, a Trial by combat." Leina said as she looked to Leon. "And only one of us is coming out of it alive." Leina said as soon millions of swords stabbed into the ground around them as each looked like a Sword of Omens but each different then the last. "Each of these Swords are a Sword that represent a part of your soul with each one wielded you will be attacked by a different aspect of your soul even ones you don't want to accept." Leina said as Leon saw this reminded him of Bleach when Ichigo was learning Bankai.

"Alright I guess I don't have a choice." Leon said as he took a battle stance.

"Thundercats... HO!" Leina invoked as the 1980's Sword of Omens turned into its sword form.

If Leon was right then with each sword he broke he will be fighting his own heart and as much as he hated to admit there might be a sword here that represented the evil that rests within everyone even Leon himself. That was when Nanael showed up as she smiled no doubt to make this more lifelike. "All who wish to enter the Queens Blade allow I Nanael to stand watch and now let the gate of test be open!" Nanael said as the barrier formed around them. "On this side we have Leina the Wandering Warrior and Future Lord of the Thundercats and on this side we have Leon Lord of Thundera and soon to be one time Lord of the Thundercats!" Nanael called as Leon was shocked as he knew this battle was a battle to the death most likely. "Now let the Queens Blade Begin!" Nanael called out as that signaled the battles start.

Leon held the sword of omens ready as Leina charged at him as the two clash Leina sword of Omens started to crack, as he flick his sword off to the side shatter the sword in which Leina moved back and grab another sword and clash with Leon again as he shatter that sword too.

(Time leap)

It's been a few hour into the fight as Leon destroy most of the swords 10 feet all around him and leaving a lot of scrap metal laying around.

The more Leon fight the more he become observant of Leina and her fighting style as there were few swords that lasted a few swing as Leon notice detail as the Leina he facing wasn't this skilled as he knew of and the strength he felt maybe she using her mark abilities but each person Leon face knew it's just an image of the person he knew of that could be like them, more ways than he knew of and ways they wanted to act or have never act before but it all a part of the trial, but this one in front of him, the one looking like Leina, it seem it not like her at all, even if she look like her, it not her.

He keep fighting not noticing something important with his sword has a small crack in it.

(Time leap)

Almost a day as Leon and Leina still keep fighting as the trio from Limbo watch the fight, Lion-o is amazed of how long they keep going, and should be tired by now, but then again one wasn't the real Leina and Leon is a spirit fighting in the book of omens.

Leon seem to be fighting in a semi-trance but keep focus on the fight as one wrong move could kill him as he did received a cut from Leina some time ago, but it wasn't deep or very worrying about but it did make him keep on edge as the cut did felt real he can feel the pain of it.

They soon went through a quarter of the swords around them with how breakable they are and how many Leina grab one and strike Leon with it was almost a sword per second.

(Time leap)

Leon body felt numb as he going into the 2nd day of this match, the more sword Leina went through the stronger some of them seem to be getting or he was losing strength as which he could not tell, as some of the sword did not break after 3 to 5 strikes or so and Leina gotten a lucky cut and Leon has yet to get a strike in for himself.

Cut were around his body as he felt them acting as he try to block them out making his body feeling numb to keep on fighting as more crack cover the sword of Omens Leon held he did not notice it as of yet, but with every sword he break ether a crack gets bigger or a new one forms on it.

Lion-o could admit if this was a part of his trials he might not lasted a day. Jaga stood still and watch the fight goes on as it reminded him of his days when he was alive as he watch other warrior fight like this that lasted almost a day or so as ether warriors refuse to give up or surrender, a true trial of combat back then and now it just like it only Leon seem it not going to back down and his opponent isn't even close to giving up or backing down as she keep coming with the swords.

(Time leap)

Leon and Leina clash sword as Leina sword is about to break as Leina started to say, "Why don't you surrender and die?"

"I'm not an idiot, and beside why start talking after all this time? With these many sword already gone, are you getting worry yourself, as at this rate, most of the sword would be gone if not, all of them, "Leon said as he destroy the one in her hand, as she leap back and grab another one and came at Leon with great speeds as they clash again and parry each other as they got into a deadlock Leina said, "Hardly as I'm the one winning this fight right now."

"What?" Leon said as Leina smile and said, "Have you forgotten, your body has many cut on them, they must be slowing you down by now."

Leon did start to feel the pain of the cuts coming back again but his body still keep the numbness up as Leon isn't going to slow down now but it seem there is another reason of why she think she going to win as she pointing out, "And also have you seen your weapon, a lot of cracks if you ask me."

Leon look down at his sword and to his surprise it did have many cracks on them as he said, "How?"

"If all these sword represent a part of your soul, as the sword you hold represent your heart, as the two are one in the same in another word your destroy you own heart as well!" Leina said as she, force him away which shatter the sword she had but it didn't matter as she soon grab another one and charged at Leon.

(Time leap)

Leon is very much on edge now knowing the truth about the sword all around him the sword he held in his hand are all one in the same as the more he destroy the more he is losing with Leina slowly giving him more and more cuts it just a matter of time before Leina would go for the killing blows.

With Lion-o is worry about him as he may hardly know the guy but he knew what he's fighting for but what about himself, what about Lion-o and what he's fighting for? To get revenge on Mumm-ra for killing his father and people, destroy Thundera, maybe to make sure he doesn't get the stones first and become the mighty overlord of the universe.

He know he hardly have anything to fight for other than the Thundercats back home but even then, him and his team could not fight together all that well as the result of the trust of the team to them and the trust of the team to him of him wasn't a strong bond as Leon's bond with his team, and wish it could be.

(Time leap)

It was coming to the 3rd day already as Leon is catching his breath with his body fill with many cut and strikes of Leina as it was coming down to the last few swords around. All saw the Sword of Omens was chipped, cracked, and about ready to shatter as Leon glared at Leina. He hated this trial as it was making him try and kill the woman he loved. But Leon had to pass somehow someway as Leina grabbed another sword as this one had a more fang like appearance as she pointed it at Leon.

Leon roared as he attacked as it seems his skills had went way up as Leina blocked the attacks with ease. Leon kept his assault up before the force eventually shattered Leina's sword before she jumped back and grabbed one with a more steam punk like form to which Leon attacked and ended up in another fight as well as the sword broke while the Sword of Omens condition got worse. Leon was injured as he smirked at Leina who was now without a sword.

"Well anything else up your sleeves Leina?" Leon asked as he pointed the ruined Sword of Omens at Leina.

"You think you won don't you?" Leina asked as she looked at Leon.

"Uh yeah kind of." Leon said as Leina then smirked and raised her right hand to the air as the 1980's claw gauntlet glowed with a dark energy.

"There is one more sword Leon." Leina said as her gauntlet began to change form. Leon then realized what she meant as he looked up and to his shock saw the Sword if Plun-Darr stabbed into the ceiling part exactly above where the Sword if Omens was. "Sword of Plun-darr come to my hand!" Leina called as her gauntlet was now the Gauntlet of Plun-Darr. The sword responded and flew to Leina's hand as it soon extended to both side entering its awakened state.

"Whiskers." Leon cursed as he knew he was in trouble now.

Soon enough Leina hit Leon back as he grunt to the force of it as he try to keep on his feet he soon saw Leina coming at him, as he stop his skidding and clash his sword with hers.

(The trio)

The sword of omens isn't to last long as Lion-o saw as did Jaga, as they see this is the final showdown for Leon. With Marianne she remain still for the pass 3 days when the fight started, as she watch without emotion.

This was a trial she could not intervene with, with the last one with Lion-o's help she gave Leon a push he need to do the 4th trial.

(Back to the trial)

Leina raise the sword of Plun-darr up in the air as she give it a twirl before bringing it down onto Leon as he block it with his sword… it was the final straw.

'Snap!'

The sword broke in half as the sword tip drop down and shatters upon contact with the ground, and the sword of Plun-darr cut throw Leon armor and into his flesh.

Blood splatter out as Leon felt the pain as he stood there with the broken sword and he slowly bleeds out, then drop to his knees.

(The trio)

Lion-o step to the viewing portal as he put his hand against as he yell, "Leon!"

Jaga is close his eye thinking it was the end for the young lord and could not watch the rest.

Marianne didn't make a face or look worry for Leon as she could not express them and only witness for what's about to come.

(Leon)

Leon could not move, with the broken sword in his hand, with all the fighting he grip it so hard he could not let go of it anymore with the state he is in now as Leina look down at Leon as she gave a dark laugh.

"You see now Leon? This battle wasn't even in your favor, as I was slowly breaking you down, bit by bit, and look at you down, your broken and with this sword, the sword that represent your darker part, a part that you repress but soon unlocked when your pass came back to you."

The sound of the children calling him names, mocking him, laughing at him, as they soon died down Leon did nothing still as Leina held the up as she said, "Your weak, and always have been weak, just like those swords. They're nothing but scraps broken broke to a broken dreams, empty ideas, fakes, phony just like you."

Leon arm that held the broken sword twitch a bit, as Leina twirl the sword of Plun-darr in the air and said, "So I'm going to end your pathetic life as it was meant to be by fate."

Leina brought down the sword on Leon about to end his life as Leon kneel as he waited, he brought his arm up and use the broken sword to cut the sword of Plun-darr… in half.

Half of the sword bounces off the floor a bit behind Leon, as Leina is surprise by this as so was Lion-o, and Jaga as they just saw Leon cut the sword of their arch-enemy in half with Marianne smile to his as she knew Leon could do it.

*End OST

*Insert Queens Blade Battle Theme

"So… what?" Leon said as he sounded in pain and try to stand up as he said, "So what am I weak… pathetic, as well a fake and phony? What wrong trying to live in a dream while living a life you hated, with Ideas that seem dumb or ridiculous? As it doesn't see a lot by you or anyone else… but it matters to me."

Leon raise his broken sword at Leina… the fake Leina and said, "It's hard to get by in life, and I've been through the hell of it and back, and for what, be like everyone else who maybe hated it as much as me… and I try to make the best of it. So what I maybe living a dream, that not going to stop me, and so what if I'm weak, I'm not going to give up on life because it of it."

The fragments of every sword that was broken started to shake as they were responding to Leon's will, his spirit is calling, his soul is roaring.

"I maybe a fake king or prince, as it was a roll I play that I loved to do, it apart that make me feel more alive, to make me feel I am important… now I know that I am, I not going to stop, I'm not going to stop fighting at all!" Leon yells as all the sword fragment started to rise up from the ground and float in the air as Leon went on, "I accept my flaws, my weakness, and everything that did seem pathetic, because I'm not going to hold me down and I'm not going to accepted fate decisions of my life for me as I said before… Fate. Screws. Everything. Over!"

All the pieces glow as Leon said, "So let me show you how I live my life."

Leon held out the sword as pieces started to fly into as he said, "THUNDER!"

A twister of metal and steel all started to form back together to the sword of omens with the half cut sword of Plun-darr got such into as well as Leon call out as he swings the sword off to the other side, "THUNDER!"

The half sword of Plun-darr broke down and joins the rest of the pieces, as they join together with the sword of Omens as Leon pointed it out as he call out, "THUNDER!"

Leon raise his sword high as the rest of the pieces join together with the sword of omens as now it was fully reform, as Leon cry out, "THUNDERCATS HO!"

A blast of gold energy came forth from the sword as the eye of Thundera glowed as well as it shot out the symbol of the Thundercats as it gave a mighty Lion's roar, and with the light blow away Nanael who was just floating in the air doing nothing as she try covering herself with her arms but it prove to be useless.

Leina grit her teeth as she held the other half of the sword up and said, "So you can still fight? That don't mean I will give up killing you!"

*End OST

*Play song Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance OST - I'm My Own Master Now

Leon held the sword in front of him and said, "Come on, let dance." His eye turn slits and glow bright blue as soon enough the two went at each other, with Leon to prove he's the master of his own fate of life.

They clash as Leina as they strikes at each other with their swords. Sparks flew and metal grind against each other as Leina try to strike down Leon again but she cannot land another blow as Leon keep blocking each one.

They soon became deadlock with each other and see who can overpower who, but at this point Leon is in control as he push up against Leina as she grunted, Leon shove her off with ease.

Leina skid back on her feet as she had an angry look on her face as she said, "I'm not done yet!"

Use her sword to slow herself down before came to a stop and charged at Leon with her sword raise high and gave a battle cry, with Leon look to her and said. "Good because there something I want to try something that I have been trying to think of a name for it… but now I know there other name for it other than…"

Leina keep yelling not listening to what Leon is saying as he raise the sword high up with both hands as the glowing of the sword got brighter with the image of a golden lion appeared above him as he brought down the sword with the lion charging forward, Leon called out, "Lions Roar!"

A gold arc wave shot out to the fake Leina as her eyes widen to the look of it, she slash her sword at it to maybe stop it, but she only held it in place as the attack keep pushing, with the golden Lion charged at her and then it pounce down giving a mighty roar as Leina scream out before the lion struck and the area flash with gold.

*End song

(With the trio)

Lion-o could not believe what he just saw as it was the most amazing thing he ever saw as Jaga is impressed by the young lord, even with he said he's a fake, he more royalty than anyone could say as it in his blood to be the king of Thundera and the leader of the Thundercats of his world.

Marianne smile to Leon as she said, "You did it Leon… now finish the trial."

(Leon)

As the area started to clear up, in front of Leon a largely made gap, as at the end of it is the fake Leina lying down beaten and broken with the sword laying down near her.

Leon held his sword to his side with the glowed died down it still shine a golden color, as he walked over going around the gap he made.

His footstep echo as he walk closer to Leina as to the sound of it she was alive, but barely to say. She open her right eye as the left one has blood covering it and sees the Thundera lord step up to her before he stop just a few feet away.

A moment of silent came before the fake Leina said to him, "what are you waiting for? Finish it."

Leon sighed as he put both hands on his sword again, he slowly raise it up as Leina watch the blade that would soon end her life as Leon brought down the sword, she close her eye and the sound of metal shattering came instead of flesh being cut.

Lion-o, Jaga saw Leon didn't finish her off, no he destroy the sword of Plun-darr instead as Leina open her eye again and saw the other half of the sword now destroy before Leon said, "I never wanted to kill you Leina, you maybe not the real one… but I cannot stand such a thing… I cannot even think about hurting you… or anyone."

The pieces of the broken sword of Plun-darr raise up and soon was absorbed into the sword of Omens as it flash gold before it died down as the sword of omen return to its original form and color as Leon said, "The sword wasn't just the memories of my pass… but my fear of the future."

Image started to move around Leon, his memories of his battle with Damian, the battle of Arlene, the fights, the battle, and soon show of everyone he has meet along to way as Leon said, "With all I seen and I know… I was scared… I still am as if this battle goes on… I'm afraid to lose you, them, and everyone thinking I would not be strong enough as that why I train, I worked hard… thinking I can get by like I always do… now I know this isn't my normal life anymore… so this is my promise to you and everyone; I will fight and I will put my life on the line to protect you and everyone else I cared about, and not let my fear rule me because this is who I am… this is what I am and nothing will change that, believe it."

Leon then reached his hand to Leina as he smiled to her. "So let's go home together." Leon said as he smiled at the fake Leina.

Leina returned the smile and took his hand before he pulled her up and the two shared a kiss as when they separated she vanished as Nanael smiled. "And the winner is Leon the True Lord of Thundera!" Nanael called as this world began to vanish around them.

(Later at the Limbo chamber)

Leon came through the portal as he saw Jaga, Lion-O, and Marianne there waiting for him. "So how did I do?" Leon asked as he smiled.

"You passed with flying colors." Marianne said as Lion-O smiled.

"Great job Leon." Lion-O said as Leon seriously wished he had a camera as the two bumped fists.

"Now then I think a proper Thunderian crowning is in order right?" Marianne asked as Lion-O looked and agreed on that.

"Yeah I think you deserve it Leon." Lion-O said as he looked to Leon.

"Very well then Leon your hand." Jaga said as Leon lifted up the Claw Gauntlet covered arm to Jaga who placed his hand upon it as did Lion-O and Jaga. "For the Eye of Thundera and the Sword of Omens." Jaga said as he touched his staff to the Gauntlet causing it to glow gold. "Now you are Leon Lord of the Thundercats." Jaga said as Leon smiled as Marianne looked.

"Congratulations Lord Leon." Marianne said as she gave her ward a quick peck on the cheek causing him to blush. "Now it's time to go home." Marianne said before looking to Lion-O. "Oh and Lion-O here is your, prophesy, for Cats who have given up you don't give up on them and for those who despise you for an unknown betrayal ease their rage away and show them the regret you feel from the truth." Marianne said as that confused Lion-O to no end.

"Thanks I'll remember that." Lion-O said as that prophesy was confusing yet unnerving.

"Hopefully our paths will cross again someday." Marianne said as she and Leon began to vanish. "Take care." Marianne said as they soon vanished.

(The real world)

Leina and Echidna were cleaning up after their training with Alleyne, Tomoe, and Nowa watch the how it went as it went on for 3 days straight.

Alleyne is amazed of how the dark elf women train Leina and using something that Alleyne own people have never used before, sap armor with a special mix of herbs and other thing that would be absorbed into the skin making it so they could keep fighting without the need of sleep, food, and water.

With the sap armor also acts as normal armor in some ways as it help block and prevent any major damage to the person who wears it from any attack from the other person with 3 days and 3 days of Leina training now complete she have created a move one that is her own.

As Leina and Echidna removed the sap armor off of them as Leina said, "This sap is really amazing, but I'm than happy to get it off."

She peel the last of the armor off as Echidna strip of her sap armor leaving her naked as she said, "Nothing wrong with a little sap and beside it did its part."

Leina finally gotten the sap off and soon she was about to go get her armor until a flash of light happens as Leina and Echidna turn their head to where Leon lays.

Unmoved sense the 3 days training, as Leina hears a groin as Leina figure out Leon is waking up and rush over to him, not worry about her lack of cover as she came to Leon side and kneel down beside him as she said, "Leon?"

Leon started to open his eyes a little blur at first but it clears up to the first site he sees was Leina as he smile and said, "Hey."

"Welcome back," Leina said to him and then lean down and give him a welcome back kiss, as it lasted for a moment before she let off.

"What did I miss? and why are you naked?" Leon asked as he saw Leina lack of clothing as she gave a blush and said, "Ah… well-

"She was doing some special training one would say," Echidna voice spoken out as Leon stiffen a bit as he completely forgot about her, as he got up and turn his head to where Echidna stood and said, "You're still-

Leon stop in his tracks as he saw a naked dark skin elf as his eyes widen a bit and his face turn red to the site as Echidna saw the look on his face and the change of the color and said, "What's wrong, it like you never seen a naked women before, or is it you never saw me naked fully before?"

She put her arms behind her head and spread her legs out a bit to let Leon to get a good look at her nude body as this greatly surprise both him and Leina, and Leon ran a bloody nose.

(Somewhat far outside the ruin barn)

Outside far from the born with Nanael, Tomoe, Alleyne, Nowa, and Lou. As the combat master and warrior priestess was enjoy a hot drink with Nowa and Nanael, as Lou is laying down sleeping as the four of them were taking a sip, they hear a huge yell, "WOULD YOU PUT YOUR CLOTHES ON!"

Nowa and Nanael spit out their hot drink taking in more than a sip, Tomoe spills her tea on her clothing, and Lou wake up in a panic. Alleyne wasn't effect or surprise by that yell as she knew who it was as she knew it was a matter of time before he would wake up, as she let off her drink and smile as she said, "Welcome back Leon."

Marianne was in the air when she hear that as she laughing her butt off as good thing she told Echidna to change in the ruin barn with Leon in it and it was all up to the perfect timing as she spoke with word like that people would hear an a old comic book, "I Marianne the prankster have struck again."

(Moment later)

After that surprise nude show of Echidna, Leon was enjoy a hot drink with everyone else as he stood with Leina, far away from Echidna as he swear he don't know what wrong with her, as she like Yoruichi from bleach but more snake like and… something that Leon could not find the words too.

Leon looked and saw most of the party is missing, as Leina told him that Cattleya and Rana went off to pick up Ymir as well pick up more Thundranium for the thundertank from the dwarfs, now knowing a better path way to get there and back. Shizuka went off somewhere as no one know where but Tomoe tell Leon she will be back and join them as he was happy to hear that.

After Nanael recover from her burnt tongue she gotten a message about something that appeared out of nowhere as Nanael said, "I'll be going on ahead, see you guys later."

Leon wave goodbye to her as she left and things were silent again and Echidna started to say, "Snake tail…no dragon tail might be a better name for it."

The group looked to Echidna as they were surprised at what she said. "You need an appropriate name for the move that you defeated me with." Echidna said as Leon was surprised. "Well done, it was most impressive." Echidna praised as Leina looked.

"Dragon Tail that's good." Leina said as she smiled as Leon then smiled.

"Well since you have your own new move I might as well show off mine." Leon said as he walked over to the Sword of Omens which was still stabbed into the ground. Leon also noticed the Book of Omens was missing as well which was probably for the best. With the Last Stone in Heaven itself they can't run the risk of Damian tailing them and following them to wherever the provisional pearly gates are hidden. Leon reached for the Sword of Omens which was stabbed into the ground as he drew it as everyone was relieved that the sword was once again answering to him.

As Leon held the sword she took a battle stance as he held the Sword in both hands charging up his own power. He then raised the sword high up with both hands as the glowing of the sword got brighter with the image of a golden lion appeared above him as he brought down the sword with the lion charging forward, Leon called out, "Lions Roar!" And with that Leon released his attack upon the forest before him hoping Alleyne would forgive him later for it as once the Lion chomped down on it, it roared releasing a burst of energy and sound destroying everything around it and creating a crater.

"Lions Roar... straight to the point huh?" Echidna said as she walked over to Leon and put her head next to his ear where her lips were right next to his ear. 'You know seeing as you are the last of your people from what Echidna told me you should look into more concubine after all heard the stories of how my great grandfather Nilux helped your Ancestor Leo so long ago. If you want a quickie later come find me alright." Echidna said as Leon was wide eyed at this. Now only was his hunch right that Nilux and Echidna were related but Echidna was his descendant. Leon now had anime tears in his eyes as he knew that he was in a bad situation if Echidna tries to pull the ally card to get into his harem somehow since their ancestors were allies so long ago.

"Leon you ok?" Leina asked as Leon looked to her.

"Leina if worse comes to worse and Echidna tries something I'm entrusting the Sword of Omens to you." Leon said as he knew no matter what he did now he had to be careful around Echidna.

Echidna though was the descendant of Nilux she herself just loved messing with Leon. Of course since her great grandfather Nilux and Alleyne's great grandmother Zelda were rivals it was no wonder they ended up passing their rivalry to their kids creating a sort of blood feud over who was better and who Leo had chosen as his ally and who he had recruited out of pity. Yeah it seems the only one who can set the table straight would be Leon himself... eventually.

"We should head out we don't want to be late, plus Claudette is in danger if Damian beats us there before she gets there." Leon said as Tomoe agreed.

"Yes we cannot allow Damian to do whatever evil tasks he wishes upon Claudette." Tomoe said as the group understood and headed out.

"Let's go." Leon said before the trio left as Echidna opted to stay behind.

'Good luck Leon you're going to need it for what's to come.' Echidna said as even she wouldn't dare take on Damian alone.

(Later at the Border)

The trio arrived as they knew Risty would be waiting for them here as Leon knew they had to stop Damian here and now. But as the doors opened the looked and saw Risty on the floor injured with the sound of fighting happening not too far away. "Risty!" Leina called as she and Leon ran over to her as they saw she was still alive as it appeared this injury came from Claudette's sword. The Fog was soon vanished as the group was shocked to see none other than Claudette there as she was thrown across the ground by Damian as Damian was in is Eternal Demon Emperor form with the Sword of Plun-Darr in its awakened state as Claudette's right shoulder was sizzling with signs of some sort of branding as it seems whatever mark was on her arm was trying to assert itself as something within Claudette battled against it.

"And the Winner is Damian the Eternal Demon Emperor!" Nanael called out even if the words were like poison to her mouth as she was still angry with Damian for what he did to Hachiel.

Damian looked and smirked as he saw Leon and Leina had arrived just in time as he smirked at this. "Well look who's showed up it seems my honeymoon with Arlene will be delayed for a bit longer." Damian said as he looked down upon the trio. "Well then Leon I believe we have some unfinished business to attend to if I am not mistaken." Damian said as he did what he needed do.
