Chapter 14

The ice queen had no idea that she could not outrun her new enemy and Cheetara was after her in less than a second. The cheetah stuck out her bo-staff and Chilla tripped, landing face first on the ground. The Lunatak wasn't done yet however, as she whipped her head around and spewed ice at the ThunderCat. Cheetara tried to dodge but she slipped on the ice and tumbled to the ground. The speed and force of the impact into the ground caused the cheetah to cry out.

By now the ThunderTank and Electro-Chargers had crossed the bridge. The Tank headed toward Tygra while the Evil Chasers made for Cheetara. They could see that Chilla was trying to encase the cheetah in ice and snow from her position on the ground, the force of her fall had caused her leg to break and getting up and running away was no longer an option. Cheetara was obviously struggling against the blasts, it seemed like she couldn't get up off the ground.

"Lunatak scum!" Mandora shouted the insult at Chilla and the ice queen lost her focus for a moment or two. It was enough for Mandora to land her Electro-Charger in front of Cheetara, protecting her while Shay and Bol went after Chilla.

"Are you ok?" Mandora asked, sliding off her vehicle and landing next to the ThunderCat.

"Pretty sure I have some broken ribs," Cheetara wheezed, unable to breathe deeply. The Evil Chaser figured it had to be worse than that since she couldn't seem to get enough oxygen in.

"Hang in there. We'll get you checked out," the blonde knew better than to try and move her on her own. Poking her head above her Electro-Charger, she saw that Shay and Bol had Chilla surrounded and the ice queen was running out of breathe. Shay blasted her with her standard issue blaster and it knocked the Lunatak out. Quickly, the two landed and went about securing the prisoner.

Meanwhile, Lion-O, Pumyra, Tygra, and the ThunderKittens were trying to wrangle Amok. He was beyond upset and that caused him to swing wildly at anyone who came near him. Not completely sure if Amok knew his own strength, Lion-O called for the ThunderKittens to get to the gun at the back of the Tank. They did so quickly and together they aimed it at the Luntak. Firing a net from the gun, they ensnared Amok, who started to thrash about to try and get it off of him.

"We've got to knock him out before he hurts someone, including himself!" Tygra yelled at his companions. WilyKat loaded knockout gas into the gun on the back of the Tank.

"Get back!" Wily Kit shouted before firing the weapon. The canister landed near Amok and soon the big galoot was out like a light.

"Thank Jaga that's over," Lion-O heaved a sigh.

"Medic!" Mandora shouted as Cheetara coughed up some blood. Tygra ran toward his two friends and Pumyra hopped out of the ThunderTank to join him.

"Kittens, I'm going to turn the Tank around. You reel in the net and hopefully it'll bring Amok with it. If not, I'm not sure how we're getting him off the ground," Lion-O tried to make them focus, despite the fact that he worried about who needed a medic and why.

That's when they saw Shay and Bol heading back into the Lair with Chilla strapped onto the back of one of the Electro-Chargers. One prisoner was heading inside while they struggled to get Amok into the back of the Tank.

"We need a Space Board!" Tygra shouted. WilyKit quickly left her post; her brother was able to watch as the Tank tried to reel in their prisoner.

"Here, use mine," the female ThunderKitten offered when she got there. She lowered the board to mere inches above the ground.

"We need your help. Stand across from Mandora. When I give the signal, we need to lift Cheetara up a little, just to get her onto the board. No sudden movements. Just nice and slow and steady, ok?" Tygra asked. WilyKit nodded, not saying anything about what appeared to be blood on the cheetah's uniform, and got into position across from Mandora. The two stood down at the cheetah's hips while Pumyra and Tygra each had a shoulder.

"One… two… three…" Tygra said. The four of them easily and carefully got Cheetara onto the Space Board on her back. WilyKit ordered the board up so that it was at hip level for Pumyra.

"Ok you help Pumyra get her into the Lair. Mandora and I will help Lion-O get Amok handled," the tiger ordered. Quickly the two were off toward the Lair.

"How bad is it?" Mandora wanted to know as they hopped onto her Electro-Charger.

"Let's just hope it isn't as bad as I think it is," Tygra admitted.
