Chapter 14
"You want to run that by me again?" Mandora sounded confused, not a state the Evil Chaser was used to being in.
"We have Chilla and Alluro in our custody and somehow Chilla has learned how to control the weather. That's the short end of it," Lion-O said via the video call which they were holding in the Control Room.
"I hate to say it but you guys are magnets for Evil. First Mumm-Ra and now those two? It only makes the situation worse to know that I have not received any word from Way Outback Island saying that there are two Lunataks on the loose," she shook her head.
"I agree. Is there any chance that they freed Luna, Amok, Tug Mug, or Redeye?" The lion wondered.
"Oh my guess is that they didn't bother otherwise you'd be up to your asses in Lunataks right now," Mandora pointed out.
"That's what I thought but I figured I'd ask you. What should we do with them?" Lion-O asked.
"I'm coming out there with a squadron. Once I get off with you, I'm making some phone calls to Way Outback," Mandora heaved a sigh.
"Probably not a bad idea. We'll hunker down until you arrive," Lion-O nodded.
"Good. See you by noon tomorrow," the Evil Chaser told him before hanging up. The lion turned to his ThunderCats and said,
"We need both of them under heavy guard. I'm not taking any chances."
"Understandable but I think we need to look at the bigger picture here," Panthro spoke up. They all turned and gave him a look.
"These two were hell bent on destroying us. My guess is that they tampered with the Feliner and that Chilla used her new found powers to try and bury us in snow but why?" He clarified.
"You're thinking someone freed them and then sent them here for a specific purpose?" Ben-Gali was beginning to see what he was getting at.
"Well look at it from their prospective. You've escaped Way Outback and your first thought is to come here? Wouldn't you run as far away as you could? Heck even try to go back to your own planet first?" Panthro questioned.
"Well we never said the Lunataks were the brightest bunch," Lion-O smirked.
"That's a given but still…" Ben-Gali was with Panthro.
"Someone told them to come here and we need to find out why," the panther said.
"Agreed," Lynx-O spoke up as he walked thru the door, pushing Cheetara in a wheelchair. Lion-O rushed over and looked at the cheetah.
"I thought Nurse Ling said you should be in bed," he said.
"Can't. My sixth sense is really not handling something well," she was squinting and his guess was that the pain in her head was too much for her. Why is the Sword not responding? Shouldn't I be getting the same warning? Lion-O wondered to himself. He didn't have much time to think of anything else when the Sword growled and the Lair shook.
"What the hell?" Panthro clenched his fist.
"Check the prisoners! Punthar pull outside up on the monitors!" Lion-O ordered before grabbing the Sword and calling for it to reveal the warning it had issued.
"Avalanche!" Punthar shouted.
