Something to Remember

Part Two

Tygra noticed the woman wasn't breathing. He immediately gave her CPR. After a fourth try, the woman coughed up the smoke. Tygra helped her sit up. The woman leaned on him and closed her eyes. After a moment, the woman opened her eyes and looked up at Tygra.

"Tygra?"

"It is you. I thought I'd never see you again," Tygra hugged her.

At this moment, the Thunder tank roared and stopped in front of the two. Lion-O, Cheetara and Panthro jumped up.

"Is she all right?" Lion-O asked.

Tygra looked up. "She's fine, Lion-O. Just a little too much smoke inhalation."

"How did it happen?" Panthro asked.

The woman looked up at the group. "I was flying in my ship when something went wrong. I'm not sure what it was. It caught fire and I had no choice but to crash land."

"That's when I found her, and I thought I lost you forever," Tygra said and kissed the top of her head.

Cheetara looked confused at the close affection between Tygra and the mysterious woman. They had just met and Tygra was holding her and kissing her. "Um, who are you?"

"My name is Jasmine. I came from the planet Elapidae. I ruled the planet alone and I came here to see my beloved Tygra."

Lion-O, Cheetara, and Panthro had stunned expressions on their face after that statement was made.

"Beloved....."

"Tygra?" Lion-O finished Panthro's words.

"You two have met before?" Cheetara asked.

"Yes. Jasmine and I met in a dream last night, but it felt so real."

Jasmine took Tygra's hand. "That's because it was real, as my love for you."

"So is mine," Tygra said and kissed Jasmine.

Lion-O, Panthro and Cheetara, still not understanding the situation looked at each other and shrugged an "I don't know" look. Tygra and Jasmine stopped kissing and looked at the Thundercats.

Lion-O introduced himself. "I'm Lion-O, Lord of the Thundercats. These are fellow Thundercat Nobles, Cheetara and Panthro," he points to Tygra, "you already met Tygra. We will tow your ship back to Cat's Lair and repair it. Until then, you are welcome to stay with us at Cat's Lair."

Jasmine smiled at the ThunderCats. "Thank you for your generosity. I accept."

*****

It took only a few days before all the repairs were made to Jasmine's ship. However, she was still there enjoying her company with Tygra. Cheetara took in all the closeness and affectionate behavior between Tygra and Jasmine. The psychic cheetah was becoming suspicious. Something wasn't right. She needed to think about this. Finding a quiet and comforting place to think, Cheetara entered the council room and sat on the windowsill. Every time she thought about Jasmine, she got this weird nagging feeling.

"Why do I feel this way about her? Jasmine seems like a nice and friendly woman. I've never seen Tygra happier. So, why am I not happy for him?"

"Cheetara?"

Cheetara looked up and saw Lion-O. He had just entered the room. He walked to her and noticed her concern look.

"What's wrong?"

Cheetara shrug her shoulders. "Nothing, I guess. I don't know why but I have a bad feeling about Jasmine. She seems right for Tygra and I should be happy about it, but I'm not."

"Maybe you're jealous," Lion-O guessed taking a seat next to Cheetara.

Cheetara looked perplexed. "Jealous? I'm not jealous. Why would I be jealous?"

Lion-O shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know. Maybe you're jealous Tygra found someone and it's not you."

"You are wrong right there, Lion-O. Tygra is no more than a friend to me. I would be happy for Tygra if he is in a good relationship, but this one......it doesn't feel right. I don't think he should be in this one. I get the feeling that Jasmine is hiding something."

"Have you thought about telling Tygra this?"

"No, I don't think it's best. I need to find evidence to prove that Jasmine isn't right for him." Cheetara looks out the window. She saw Tygra and Jasmine walking hand in hand back in the lair. "You know, even Tygra sometimes doubt my senses. He never said that, but I can tell."

"Not scientific?" Lion-O guessed.

Cheetara looks at Lion-O and smiles. "Yes. Besides, I could be wrong about this."

"When have you ever been wrong?" Lion-O asked.

"I thought Panthro was captured by Mumm-Ra, stuck in Castle Plundarr, and stranded at Hook Mountain all at once."

"That wasn't your fault. That was Vultureman and Alluro's Telepathy Beam," Lion-O corrected her. He just realized something. Cheetara was always right with her hunches. She may be right this time. "Cheetara, you maybe on to something. Time will tell if Jasmine is all she claims to be. If you feel very strong about your senses, then you should tell Tygra now to spare his feelings." Lion-O advised getting off the windowsill. "It's best to know now than to find out years later what a huge mistake you've made." He gave her an assuring smile and walked out of the room.

Cheetara thought about Lion-O's advice. Maybe he's right. Maybe I should tell Tygra now. I do feel strongly about it, and it will save him from getting hurt. However, I don't know if he will listen to me since he's so crazy about her. No, I have to risk it. Tygra's my friend. I'm sure he'll do the same for me.

Mind made up, Cheetara left the room, searching for Tygra. It didn't take her long. She bumped into him halfway to his lab.

"Oh, sorry, Tygra, but I'm glad I ran into you. I have to talk to you."

"Really? About what?"

"Jasmine," Tygra's face seems to light up at the name. Cheetara continued "..and you. How did it happen? How did you two get together?"

"I saw her in my dreams. We had the most wonderful time together. She promised we would be together and we are. Isn't she wonderful?"

He sounded so light and happy. Cheetara just couldn't understand why she felt there was something wrong.

"A dream? That's it? You only met her in a dream and when you finally meet her, you're all over her like a sick puppy?"

"Sick puppy? My affection for Jasmine isn't puppy love. It's real, pure love. She's everything I want in life."

"Everything you want in life? Tygra, you're a book worm." Tygra looked stunned at Cheetara's words but she continued. "Don't give me that look, Tygra. You know it. I know it. Everyone knows it. All you ever wanted to do was to study everything there is about science and use that knowledge to help others as a Thundercat and you are doing that. You told me that yourself."

Tygra folded his arms and scoffed at the cheetah. "You wouldn't happen to be jealous, would you?"

"Jealous?" Cheetara repeated. "Of you? Tygra you're a friend to me. You know that."

"Hmm, I wonder all this time, Cheetara...could you be jealous that I'm with Jasmine and not you?"

"Have you completely lost it, Tygra? I am not jealous of you. I would be happy for you if you found someone to love, but this Jasmine isn't the one for you. There's something about her I don't trust."

The cheetah sighed not being able to get through her friend. She ran a hand through her hair and looked back up at the tiger.

"Think about it, Tygra. How can you be in love with someone you met in a dream?"

"How can you be in love with someone ten years your junior, mentally?" Tygra asked.

Cheetara placed her hands on her hips. "What are you talking about?"

"Lion-O."

Cheetara looked at Tygra oddly.

"Don't look so innocent. I know about your feelings for Lion-O."

"Lion-O and I aren't even like that and don't change the subject. Jasmine isn't the right person for you. You can't fall in love with someone in one day let alone a dream. It takes time. Your problem is that you never experience having a girlfriend because you were concentrated on your science. You think you are in love, but its just lust. It's infatuation, Tygra not love."

"You're wrong, Cheetara. I love her. She loves me. She understands me. She accepts me for who I am."

"Is that why you love her?"

"No, she's smart, beautiful...she cares. She's right for me."

Cheetara shook her head. "This isn't right, Tygra. You know I wouldn't say anything unless I'm sure?"

Tygra looked away at the cheetah. Cheetara turned Tygra's face to look at her.

"Just think about what I said."

Cheetara left Tygra standing in the hall. Jasmine watches from a corner. She heard the whole conversation.

*****

Tygra avoided Cheetara the rest of the day, except for dinner where he didn't say much of anything and ate his food as quickly as he could and left. He was upset at Cheetara thinking ill about Jasmine. She was so special to him. He loved her and he knew she loved him. He retired to his room for the rest of the night. Tygra sat in his bed under the covers, reading when he heard someone knocking on his door.

"Come in," he said turning the page.

Jasmine entered. Tygra looked up to see who it was and he beamed. He stared at her longingly in her dark evening gown. Her hair was down full of curls. She seems to glow as she walked towards him. The woman sat on the bed and looked at him.

"How's my handsome tiger?"

Tygra closed his book. "Wonderful, now that you are here." Tygra tossed the book aside, pulled Jasmine close to him and kissed her. How can Cheetara think this is wrong? She's the one who's wrong.

Jasmine suddenly pulled back and looked at him with sad eyes.

"What's wrong?" Tygra asked.

"I think the time has come for me to leave."

"Leave?" Tygra was stunned. "No, you can't leave. I won't let you. I love you."

"And I love you, too, but my place isn't here, Tygra. It's with my people. I must continue to lead them. I....I want you to come with me."

*****

Cheetara turned over in her bed sleeping. After dinner, she did her nightly watch and went to sleep. It was all quiet in her room. Her window was open to keep the room cool from the summer heat. As she slept, she didn't see something slither into her room. It started off as one, then two, three and continues to increase. Black venomous cobras were entering the cheetah's room. They entered from her open window and her air vent. One by one, they continue to enter her room. They surrounded and began crawling on her bed.

*****

"Come with you?" Tygra repeated. "I'm needed here. I'm a Thundercat."

"Yes, I know, but do the Thundercats give you the respect you deserve. You're smart, strong. You don't have any leadership role in the organization."

"Of course I do, Jasmine. I'm second-in-command."

"Yes, you are," she agreed. "But they don't respect you. They tease you; Panthro for sure. Don't you remember telling me about how Panthro still tease you from time-to-time about the incidents with the Silky Fruit and Keystone? It wasn't your fault. You were tricked. It could happen to anyone in that situation. A man as big and as strong as Panthro shouldn't be afraid of bats, but he is and you haven't teased him about that."

"Yes, you are right about that, but I'm not sure about leaving the Thundercats. They are my friends."

"Tygra, with me, you will be king of an entire planet. You will be respected, love, although I will love you more. I know it's a hard decision to make. I only want you to be happy. So, take your time. Can you guarantee me that?"

Tygra gently caressed her face. "Of course, I will. You know that."

Jasmine smiled. She kissed him and ran her fingers up his chest and into his hair. She pulled apart breathing heavily. "I love you, Tygra."

"I love you, too, Jasmine."

Jasmine kissed Tygra again. Tygra wrapped his arms around her and brought her down with him on the bed.

*****

Cheetara continue to sleep. Not noticing countless snakes in her room. She rolled on her back and opened her eyes. Staring in front of her was a cobra with its hoods flared, fangs waiting to bite into her pure flesh, and hissing at her.

Oblivious to the loud scream from Cheetara's room, Tygra and Jasmine continued to make love. Both were now half dressed when they heard the scream, but neither pulled away from each other. Another scream was heard. Tygra thought he had heard something and pulled away from Jasmine.

"What is it, Tygra?" a breathless Jasmine asked stroking Tygra's arm.

"I thought I heard something."

"I didn't hear anything," Jasmine said. She brought Tygra down with her and kissed Tygra again: on the lips, the side of his face and then his neck. Turned on again, Tygra resume kissing Jasmine.

Lion-O, Panthro, and the Thunder kittens were sleeping when they heard the scream. They rushed to Cheetara's room. When they got there, snakes were coming out of Cheetara's room from under the door and on top of the door. Lion-O used the Sword of Omens to cut the snakes head off. Panthro pulled out his nunchuks and blast the snakes away. The twins used their pellets to create knives to cut the snakes.

"We've got to get inside. If there are this many snakes out here, imagine how many there are with Cheetara," Lion-O said cutting the cobras heads off with the Sword of Omens.

"Why isn't Tygra here?" WilyKit asked cutting the snakes with a knife. "Didn't he hear Cheetara's scream?"

"Yeah, we could use his bolo whip to burn the snakes," her brother added.

Tygra pulled himself off Jasmine and sat up on the bed. Jasmine sat up. "What's wrong, Tygra? You're not ready?"

"It's not that. Something's wrong. I could have sworn I heard something a while ago."

There was a knock on the door.

Jasmine got under the covers of Tygra's bed. Tygra put on his pants and went to the door.

"WilyKat? What are you doing here?" he asked annoyed.

"Tygra, why aren't you with us at Cheetara's room?"

"What's happening?"

"What's happening?!" the teen repeated. "Didn't you hear Cheetara's scream?! There are hundreds of cobras coming out of her room!"

"I'm on my way." Tygra said. He grabbed his bola whip and ran out the door with WilyKat.

While Panthro and WilyKit continue to battle the snakes, cutting off their heads, Lion-O kicked Cheetara's door down. Cheetara's room was covered with snakes. The cheetah was lying on her bed unconscious. Her staff laid in one of her hands. She was able to put up a fight until a cobra got to her. The largest cobra among all the cobras, probably the king, had its scaly body wrapped around the Cheetara's. The King Cobra had it fangs near her neck, hissing at it, ready to bite. Lion-O saw the snakes coming towards him, but he didn't care. His main concern was getting to Cheetara. Deciding to take them all out together, Lion-O aimed his sword at the snakes.

"HO!" The sword glowed a bright light disintegrating all, but the King Cobra, which still has its body, wrapped around Cheetara.

The cobra turned to Lion-O angry. It released its hold on Cheetara and turned its attention to the Lord of the Thundercats. It gave off an intimidating stare as the hoods flared farther than it had before. Lion-O wasn't threatened by the snake. The snake slyly moved towards Lion-O, fangs out. It made an attempt to bite Lion-O but failed. Lion-O dodged. He took one quick swipe and cut the head of the cobra off. With the snake dead, Lion-O ran to Cheetara's side. He checks to see where the snake bit her. He found a swelling on her right thigh. Tygra entered.

"What happened?"

"Cheetara was bitten by a cobra on her right thigh," Lion-O answered.

"We have to keep her body still," Tygra said.

"I'll call Pumyra," Kit said and ran out.

By the time Pumyra arrived, Tygra had drained most of the poison out of Cheetara's system. Pumyra was able to treat her but Cheetara was still unconscious. She and Tygra left the sickbay to meet with everyone waiting outside including Jasmine.

"Well?" Lion-O asked.

"We did all that we could do. There is still poison in Cheetara's system that we couldn't reach. I injected an antidote in her. It's going to take a while for it to work so Cheetara may be out for the next few days, a week maybe. It's all on her now," Pumyra explained.

Lion-O nodded his head and went to his bedroom. The others disperse and went back to their chambers. Pumyra went back in sickbay. Tygra and Jasmine were the only ones left.

"If only I got there sooner--" Tygra blamed himself.

"It's not your fault, Tygra. If anything, you should blame me." Jasmine said.

"Why? You had nothing to do with this."

"I was trying to get you to make love to me and you said you heard something. Because of my selfishness, Cheetara is hurt." Jasmine cried.

Tygra pulled Jasmine in a hug. "Oh, no, dear. It's not your fault at all. You didn't know," he bent down and gave her a quick kiss. "Okay?"

"I guess so, but I still feel guilty."

"Don't worry about it, my love. Cheetara is a fighter. She will pull through it."

Jasmine reluctantly pulled away. "I think I'll go to my room now."

As she begins to leave, Tygra grabbed her arm and pulled her back to him. "Don't you want to go back to what we were doing?"

"Definitely," she breathed heavily. "But no. I don't want our lovemaking clouding your judgment. I'll see you in the morning."

She let go of him and walked back to her room, leaving Tygra in the hall by himself.

*****

In the middle of the night, or rather early that morning, while everyone was sleeping, Jasmine left her room and went to see Cheetara in sickbay. The cheetah was hooked to an IV and was in stable condition. The sultry Jasmine looked over the sick cheetah.

"Oh, poor Cheetara. Poisoned by a cobra. I guess curiosity can kill a cat. I won't let you ruin my plans for Tygra and the rest of this world." She laughed wickedly. "You won't be much of a fighter when I give you an extra dose of cobra poisoning."

Jasmine pulled out a needle from her left sleeve of her robe. She grabbed the IV and prepared to inject the rest of the poisonous venom.

"What are you doing?"

Jasmine silently gasped. Coolly she slides the needle under her sleeve. She turns around.

"Hello, Lion-O. What brings you here?"

"I was going to ask you that."

"I just came from the bathroom, and I decided to check on Cheetara. Why are you here?"

Lion-O didn't believe her answer one bit. "I came to check on her. I felt something was wrong and then I find you," Lion-O looked at her suspiciously.

"Lion-O, you can't think that I would do anything to Cheetara."

"I don't know. It's not like I know you very well."

"She isn't my enemy, Lion-O, but I'm taking up too much of your private time with Cheetara. I'll go now." She walked out and Lion-O still had a suspicious look about her.

The following morning, Panthro entered to check on his friend's condition. He was surprise to find Lion-O there. His legs were in one chair and his body was sitting in another. He had a blanket covering him and he had a hand on Cheetara's. Panthro poke Lion-O's shoulder. His leader stirred then awakened.

"Panthro?"

"Lion-O, what are you doing here?"

"Keeping an eye on Cheetara."

"Why?"

"Jasmine was in here around three this morning. She said she came to check on Cheetara, but I don't believe her. I think she was planning on harming her."


Panthro looked at his leader oddly. "What were you doing here that early in the morning?"

"I woke up and felt Cheetara was in danger, so I checked on her and found Jasmine."

"So, that's why you checked on Cheetara?" Panthro didn't seem to believe it.

"Yes, why is that so strange?"

Panthro shook his head. Maybe he was jumping to conclusion. "No, reason. So Jasmine was in here. I wonder what she was up to."

"I don't know, but it can't be good. Cheetara mentioned she got strange vibes about Jasmine. Maybe Jasmine is up to something, Cheetara became aware about it, and Jasmine decided to shut her up by poisoning her with the cobras."

"Good theory, but what could Jasmine be up to?"

"I don't know, Panthro, but I think I better have a talk with Tygra."

"Be careful about that," Panthro warned his leader. "When a guy is head over heels over a woman like Tygra is over Jasmine, he'll end up getting angry and turning on you and not Jasmine."

"Right. I better approached the subject carefully."

*****

That afternoon, Lion-O walked in on Tygra in his lab. He thought it would be best if they talk in private.

"Excuse me, Tygra, can I talk to you for a moment?" Lion-O requested.

Tygra stopped what he was doing and looked at his leader.

"Sure, Lion-O. What is it?"

Lion-O pulled a stool and sat in front of Tygra. "I wanted to talk to you about Jasmine. How are you two?"

"We're doing great. She's so beautiful, smart. I...I really can't believe I lived this long without her."

"That serious, huh?" Lion-O questioned.

"Yes. I never thought being in a relationship would be so great." He said blithely. He looked at Lion-O serious. "She asked me to return to her kingdom and be her king."

Lion-O was taken back. "She did? What are you going to do?"

"I haven't decided yet."

"Well, before you do, hear me out on this. I'm not sure Jasmine is right for you. There is something about that woman that isn't right. She seems nice, but I'm getting the feeling that she really isn't."

Tygra got angry. "You too? First Cheetara and now you. What's wrong with you two? Jasmine is a great person."

"I don't know about that. Cheetara is in sickbay."

"That's not Jasmine's fault!" Tygra shouted.

Lion-O kept his cool. "I'd be suspicious of her if I were you. I found her with Cheetara in sickbay three this morning. It looked like she was trying to do something but she didn't get the chance to."

"Are you accusing Jasmine of poisoning Cheetara? And just where would she get the cobras?"

"I don't know. It's just an assumption--a strong one. You should be careful of her. As a friend, I'm telling you that you shouldn't go. It could be dangerous. There's a lot about her that you don't know. It will be foolish chasing someone to another planet and you don't truly know her."

"I do know everything about her and Jasmine would never harm Cheetara. She is a good person."

"After what happened to Cheetara and finding Jasmine with her so early in the morning, I don't think she is a good person. If you know everything about her, then what is her favorite color? What are her likes and dislikes? When she say something embarrassing, do you know if she blushes or not, or form a funny face? Do you know anything about her except that she is beautiful and smart?"

"Is that how you feel about Cheetara?" Tygra asked.

The Lord of the ThunderCats remained silent.

"So what if I don't know. I never asked her. That still doesn't mean she's what you claiming her to be. I don't know what your problem is but lay off my girlfriend! Now, if you're through, I suggest that you leave!"

Lion-O never saw Tygra so violently angry before. It wasn't like him at all. Didn't want to stir him anymore, Lion-O got up and left. After he closed the door to Tygra's lab, he said, "He's really got it bad for her."

Lion-O saw Jasmine in the hall. Apparently she was going to see Tygra. The Lord of the Thundercats went into the opposite direction. After a few minutes, Jasmine entered the room cheerfully. She saw Tygra's angry face and became concern.

"Tygra, what's wrong?"

"Lion-O is accusing you of poisoning Cheetara."

Jasmine took a seat next to him. "He is? Why? I would never hurt Cheetara."

"I know, but he wouldn't believe me."

"I see. When are you having a Thundercat meeting?"

"In an hour."

"I'll make an announcement that should have your friends stop thinking I harmed Cheetara."

"What are you going to do?" Tygra asked.

Jasmine cupped Tygra's face with her hands. "You'll see."

During the meeting, Tygra wondered what Jasmine meant. The meeting was almost over and Jasmine hasn't entered. She said she was going to make an announcement that would stop the other Thundercats from thinking she did anything to Cheetara. What would that be? Tygra just didn't understand why Lion-O and Cheetara would doubt Jasmine's love for him and think he was moving too fast. She was perfect for him. She understood him completely. Jasmine was everything he wanted and needed in life. Tygra's wondering was answered when Jasmine entered as Lion-O was closing the meeting.

"I'm sorry for interrupting your meeting, but I have something to say."

"And that would be?" Lion-O asked suspiciously.

Jasmine stepped in the room. "It has come to my attention that certain people feel my presence to be threatening to others here, so I think the best thing I should do is leave."

"Jasmine, no! You can't!" Tygra nearly jumped out of his seat.

Jasmine walked to Tygra and ran a hand through his striped hair. "I'm sorry, my sweet tiger, but it's for the best. I don't belong here, and I should leave where I'm not wanted."

"But you are wanted! I want you! I need you! Don't leave me!"

Tears filled Jasmine eyes. "Oh, Tygra, my beloved soul mate. I do not wish to leave you, but I must." She cupped his face and kissed him deeply. She pulled back and looked into his eyes. "Good-bye, Tygra."

She rushed out of the room, hoping not to cry anymore. Tygra ran after her.

"Jasmine! Jasmine!"

The other Thundercats left their seats to follow Tygra and Jasmine. Jasmine ship was already warming up for her to takeoff. She got into it immediately. Behind her, she heard Tygra calling after her. She ignored him and flew away.

"Jasmine! No! Don't leave me!!" Tygra cried out. But she didn't hear him. She was already heading out of the planet. Tygra fell to his knees crying.

The other Thundercats stood back. WilyKit and WilyKat didn't care if she left or stayed. They didn't know what the adults knew. Panthro wondered if the tiger would take his anger out on the others since he lost Jasmine. Lion-O walked towards Tygra, wanting to help his friend.

"Tygra, I'm sorry.....but maybe this is for the best."

The tiger turned to Lion-O angry and suckered punched him. The punch didn't hurt Lion-O. It just came as a surprise. "This is all your fault! Yours and Cheetara's! Jasmine had nothing to do with Cheetara being poisoned!"

"Tygra if you would look at the facts..." Lion-O tried to explain.

Tygra rise angrily. "There's nothing to prove!"

"She left because we were right about her. If she wasn't guilty of anything, she would stay here and prove her innocence, but she ran away like a coward." Lion-O pointed out.

"I'll show you who's a coward," Tygra said and tried to punch Lion-O again, but he dodges it.

"Tygra, just calm down."

"No, I won't calm down! This is the last straw, boy! I'm tired of taking orders from you! I'm tired of being teased and taunted by all you, especially you Panthro, bald Thundercat who fears bats. There's a coward for you!"

"What?!" Panthro roared angrily. He wanted to fight Tygra, but Lion-O held him back.

"I am the most intelligent Thundercat! I should be the leader! Not some arrogant cub! Do you all respect my intelligence? Do you take my advice? No. No, you don't! You think I don't know anything! You think I'm weak! Well, we'll see how you can handle yourselves without me here! I'm through with the Thundercats!"

The once mild-mannered, levelheaded Tygra tore off his insignia from his chest and threw it to the ground. It fell a few inches from Lion-O's feet. Tygra ran back in the lair. The Thundercats stood in silence of Tygra's behavior. They didn't know what to say.

"Hmp, never thought Tygra would do that," WilyKat commented.

"Who does Tygra think he is, calling me bald and a coward?" Panthro growled.

"Well, you are bald," WilyKat pointed out.

The panther glared at the Thunderkitten, and WilyKit smacked her brother on the back of his head.

"Let it go, Panthro. He's not himself. He's so blinded by his love for Jasmine that he isn't thinking straight. Give him some time to cool off," Lion-O advised.

The Thundercats attention was turned to the right claw as it rose in the air. The Thunderstrike took off for space.

"That's Tygra," WilyKit commented. "He's going after Jasmine."

WilyKat folded his arms and smartly commented. "If he's so through with being a Thundercat, then why is he taking off in the Thunderstrike which bares the Thundercat signal. Talk about being hypocritical."

Everyone looked at WilyKat about his comment.

The young Thundercat could only reply, "What, I'm just saying."

Out of the planet's atmosphere, Jasmine ship picked up someone trying to break in her communications.

"Tygra?" she asked.

"Yes, Jasmine. It's me."

"What are you doing? Why aren't you with the Thundercats?"

"I don't need them. They are not important to me as you are. I want to be where you are. I never want to be apart from you again."

"Oh, Tygra. You don't know how happy that makes me," she cried. "With me, you'll be treated as you always should have been," she said and turned off the communicator. "As a natural born sucker."
