Chapter 4
Leona couldn't sleep rapped up in the bodies of her fellow women slaves. She picked at the manacles with a small stick with no luck till she heard the mine door open slowly. She felt her heart stop as the figure moved closer, she remained motionless hoping that it would pass. The figure disappeared into the darkness then she heard one of the slave girls being pulled away. The last thing she saw was the two bodies go into the empty tunnel. She moved a little but was pulled back. "Stay still." Damira whispered. She covered her ears trying not to hear the horrible groans and muffled screams. One thought kept going through her mind over and over, "I must escape."
Tearna went to bed hoping tomorrow would be better. She hated all the questions the thundercats asked her but even more she hated the fact that they considered snarfs as equals. Her father had always told her they were vile diseased ridden creatures that shouldn't be touched but she saw them as slaves. They were the only creatures she was able to control with her limited powers, she never understood why because no one else could. She fell asleep dreaming of when she was the princess.
She and Leona played hide and seek in the garden of her father's big estate. She wore a yellow dress with small roses around the bottom, her hair was up in a bun. She started to climb up the large tree at the side of the house trying to hide from her sister when she was pulled down.
"Tearna! What do you think you're doing. A lady never climbs trees." Her father scolded her. He was the most hansom man there ever was in her mind. His fur was a very light shade of orange almost yellow, the stripes along his body a darker orange. He was dressed in a fine blue suit with a black coat cut down to his knees. "I was just playing hide and seek daddy." Leona ran and bumped into him. "Sorry Pocender." Her little green dress was ripped and muddy. "Go in the house at once and wash up. Lunch is almost ready." Leona ran to the door. "Don't run in the house or no lunch." He took Tearna's hand and walked her inside. "Your mother is coming soon so you better look your best. You don't want her to think I'm not raising you right." He smiled and kissed her forehead.
"Daddy said that momma's coming." Tearna threw a pillow at Leona. "Good then maybe she'll take me with her." She threw the pillow back. "Why do you want to leave me and daddy?" Leona "He's your daddy, not mine!"
Tearna went downstairs to the dining room. The table was more beautiful then usual, the best china laid out and she could smell the lamb roasting in the kitchen. Pocender sat at the head of the table with a worried face. She was going to ask him what's wrong but he got up, walked out to his office and locked the door. "Daddy? Daddy what's wrong?" she pounded on the door until she felt a familiar hand placed on her shoulder.
"Tearna, sweetheart." She turned around to face her mother. Farrel had the darkest red fur of anyone with a very tiny frame one would think she was the devil herself. Leona ran down the stairs and gave her a big hug. "Mommy I missed you." Farrel swung her around a bit and set her back down. She turned to Tearna. "The food smellls good, why don't we just sit down and have some lunch." She pounded on the office door as she pasted. "Hey Cender. Come out and eat with us. I need to talk to you anyway." Tearna hated the way her mom talked to him and she hoped she was going to leave soon. They ate as they always did when they were all together except that Farrel wasn't trying to annoy Pocender like she usually did.
Farrel finally broke the silence when they brought out coffee and the girls were away. Tearna pressed her ear to the door trying to listen. "I'm taking the girls with me this time." He growled at her with such hatred that it scared Tearna who never heard her father do it before. "I won't let you take them. You gave them up when you left us for that guttertrash of a boyfriend." She pulled a rolled paper out of her waist bag. "I thought you would say that so I got this from the thundarian lord. It's an order for you to release them to me. If you don't I will lose your entire fortune and I will still get them. Its up to you." She smiled as he threw the table across the room. "Take them." She rang for the maid to pack the girls things.
"NO!" Tearna screamed and ran into the room. "I don't want to go with you, I wanna stay with my daddy." Pocender hugged her tight. "I'm sorry princess. I'll find a way to get you back." He carried her to the waiting vehicle, Leona fallowed them carring her doll. "Take care of your sister Leona." He yelled as they drove off never to see him again.
