Thundercats Meet Star Fleet
Part 2

Disclaimer/Author's notes: Don't own any rights to Thundercats. The characters Isabella and Lieutenant Terran are mine. This is my first crossover ever and I start with Star Trek. More or less we know that the Thundercats is set in the future but how far is the question. Well the setting for this story is in the late 24th century during the time of the Dominion war. However, you'll see more of the cats than Star Trek.

After Tygra and Pumyra got back to the Cats Lair, they found Lion-O and Snarf sitting outside of Cats Lair on the steps. They told Lion-O about Willa's birthday and Isabella and how she wanted to meet Lion-O and would tell them everything they wanted to know. Lion-O was quite interested in what Isabella had to say. He also wanted to wish Willa a happy birthday as well.
The three Thundercats waited until the others arrived and Tygra told them their findings.
"So the humans are at war with another alien race," Panthro said.
"Yes and from what Isabella's friend told her over a communicator," Pumyra said, "it sounds like the war isn't over but they have made good progress."
"She also had said she was here last year and followed us around. When she went back to Star Fleet, she had asked to come back to make first contact with us," Tygra said.
"Why would Star Fleet want to meet us?" Cheetara asked.
"I believe," Panthro said, "its because our technology is probably more advanced than most of the different races here."
"That is exactly right," Tygra said. "She's quite intrigued by our technology." Tygra turned to his leader. "Lion-O, this may be a real opportunity to learn more about the humans but suppose they will ask us questions of why we are here and where we come from."
"I understand your concern Tygra, but if we are to have more allies and learn more about the humans that is something we may need to trade with. Information for information."
"Lion-O's right," Cheetara said. "If Isabella is willing to tell us about the humans and their technology we, at least, could tell them more about us."
"Plus it's Willa's birthday," Wilykit said. "And she would love to see us all at the festival."
"I'm really curious in what Isabella has to say and we all want to see Willa," Lion-O said. "Let's go."
The Thundercats got in the Thundertank and drove off towards the Treetop Kingdom.
****
The festivities were well underway when the Thundercats arrived. It took them a few minutes to find Willa and give her birthday wishes.
"Thank you for coming Thundercats," Willa said.
"We're happy to be here, "Lion-O said.
"I hope you will stay until dark."
"We'll stay as long as we can," Lion-O said.
"Good, now enjoy the festival." Willa turned and went back to the party.
"She's on the go," Bengali said.
"She always is when it's her birthday," Tygra said. "Birthdays to the Warrior Women are unique and special. It's the only days that they don't keep their guard up. Especially when it's Willa's or Nayda's birthday."
"What goes on through this festival?"
"Different things. They have little small shows of their heritage, show off their hidden talents," Lion-O said. "They also play games that are mainly played during what the humans call Halloween."
For a while the Thundercats were involved in the Warrior Maidens festivities. Neither of them had forgotten about Isabella. Tygra was the first one to see that Isabella was finally at the party. Tygra and Lion-O were watching a couple of the maidens paint Wilykit and kat's face. "Lion- O, she's over there," Tygra said pointing over by a nearby tree.
Lion-O followed his eyes to where Tygra was pointing and saw Isabella. "Thanks. Tell the others I've gone to speak with her."
"Ok," Tygra said.
As Lion-O approached Isabella, Tygra went back to watching the maidens paint faces.
"Hello, Isabella," Lion-O said.
"Hello, you must be Lion-O, Lord of the Thundercats," she said.
"Yes. Tygra told me that you are part of the Federation."
"Yes, but we have much to talk about. I've been watching your people since you arrived at the party but I was unable to introduce myself until now. Please come with me." Isabella turned and started walking away from the party.
"Wait. Why are we leaving the party?" Lion-O asked.
Isabella turned back around. "We are not leaving. We're going up on the hill to talk. The hill is where I've been watching you all evening. It overlooks the whole village. Only Willa and Nayda know about me and I don't need the other women to know."
"So that is how Willa has been able to tell us about your people," Lion-O said as he caught up to her.
They walked to the top of a hill that overlooked the village and sat down.
"Before we begin, what did Tygra say to you about me?" she asked.
"He told me that you are a Commander and you have a companion whose name is Lieutenant Terran."
"Yes, you'll be meeting him shortly. He flies a shuttle craft that allows us to communicate with Star Fleet command." She pulled out a piece of metal jewelry. "This is how I communicated with him earlier. If I was wearing my uniform, I would be wearing this as well, not have it in the pouch."
"Before we go any further, my friends and I are curious if you are going to want to know about our technology."
"As much as I like to, I can't. It's against our Prime Directive," she said.
"Your Prime Directive?"
"It's one rule we have towards other alien cultures. We are not allowed to interfere with other cultures no matter if their technology is greater or less than ours, unless the people of the culture wants to tell us."
"To make sure I understand you correctly, if we do not want to explain why we are here and our technology, we don't have to and it's against your directive."
"Yes, that's correct," Isabella said.
"Commander?"
Isabella and Lion-O turned to the sound of the voice. A man about Lion-O's height wearing a uniform came towards them.
"Lion-O meet Lieutenant Terran," Isabella said. "Lieutenant, I've told you don't call me by my rank when we're here."
"Sorry," Terran said. "Hello, Lion-O. It's nice to meet you." Terran turned back to his Commander. "Isabella, we've just got word that Tora Ziyal is dead."
"Tora Ziyal? She's Gul Dukat's Bajoran daughter who was under the care of Major Kira?"
"Yes. And Gul Dukat's in custody. He's being held in the brig of DS9."
"Good. He deserves to be in jail," Isabella said.
"I'm a little confused," Lion-O said.
"Dukat, is an enemy to the Federation," Terran said.
"Terran, where is the shuttlecraft?"
"I landed it a mile from here."
"Go and contact Star Fleet Command and tell them that I'm here with Lion-O and the rest of the Thundercats."
"Acknowledged." Terran turned and left back towards the shuttlecraft.
Lion-O watched him leave. He turned back to Isabella. But she wasn't paying any attention to him. She was watching the party take place. Before too long and without looking towards Lion-O she asked.
"Lion-O, when Tygra had left to talk to you, I had received a message from my superiors and they would like to extend and invitation to you and your fellow cats to return with me to San Francisco."
"San Francisco? But that would leave the Cats Lair unprotected and we have enemies here on the planet who are after my sword."
"May I ask why they want your sword?" she asked turning to him.
Lion-O hesitated at first but decided to pull out the sword from the claw shield and handed it to Isabella. "Here in the middle is the symbol of our home planet. It's called the Eye of Thundera. This sword is very powerful and if it fell into the wrong hands, this planet could be destroyed or at least the population."
"That does strike my interest but I'm forbidden to ask about your planet."
"I don't mind telling you," Lion-O said. "Thundera is the name of our planet and its been destroyed. Very few of us escaped with our lives. We went into suspension capsules and slept until we crashed landed here."
"That explains a lot," she said and handed back the sword. She watched as Lion-O placed the sword back in the claw shield. "These enemies of yours are they creatures that look like some sort of mutants?"
"They are called Mutants and we have another enemy which has been her on the planet for countless thousands of years. Mumm-ra."
"I see."
"Lion-O! Isabella!"
Both Lion-O and Isabella turned to the sound and saw Nayda running towards them.
"Willa's been looking for the both of you," Nayda said when she reached the top of the hill.
"Thanks. Nayda," Isabella said. "Thundercats know who I really am."
Nayda nodded and turned back to walk back to the party. Not far behind, Lion-O and Isabella stood and followed.
"Please think about the invitation and get back to me," Isabella said.
"I will and thanks."
When the two girls and Lion-O got back down to the bottom, Lion-O went over to his friends. Cheetara was the first to notice his approach. She nudged Panthro in the ribs for his attention. Panthro looked up at his leader. Her and Panthro were playing a game of darts, busting balloons with the balloons. It was an old Earth game played at least four hundred years ago.
"I seen you speak to that girl on the hill," Panthro said. "Is that our Federation friend?"
"Yes, and she's invited us to San Francisco," Lion-O said.
"That's where Star Fleet headquarters are," Willa said coming up from behind Lion-O.
"Willa," Lion-O said, startled. "How did you meet Star Fleet?"
"Before I was established as the queen of the Treetop Kingdom, Nayda and I used to live in San Francisco."
Cheetara and Panthro stopped their game and looked at Willa in surprise.
"In 2367, which was seven years ago, I was a Lieutenant Commander for Star Fleet but was stationed in San Francisco at the time. Our parents were killed by a dangerous alien race called the Borg. Nayda being ten years younger than me was only a child and there was no one else left to care for her but me. I resigned from Star Fleet not wanting Nayda to lose her last known relative.
"When Nayda and I came to live here, we met the queen of Treetop Kingdom. She was an old woman with no children. She adopted us into her kingdom but not longer after she died. Everyone went into chaos and I decided to help and eventually became queen because of my good leadership skills."
"How did Star Fleet get in contact with you?" Panthro asked. He was intrigued by the queen's story.
"A couple years later, I decided to take Nayda back home for a visit. While there, I decided to visit Star Fleet Command. Though I'm no longer part of Star Fleet, I did not return alone. An officer returned with Nayda and me. That's when Star Fleet decided to start watching out for the other people on the planet. I would take up Isabella's offer and meet the rest of Star Fleet command. With transporters, you guys can be gone for a day and be back here by nightfall."
"Transporters?" Cheetara asked.
"It's how they get from place to place within seconds."
"Thanks Willa. We appreciate the information," Lion-O said. "I'll gather up the others and have a talk with them."
"You better do it soon. Isabella has to leave soon," Willa said.
For the next few hours, Lion-O, Cheetara and Panthro talked with Willa about Star Fleet and the history of the planet. The three Thundercats were amazed at how the humans went from a savage race to quite well known people within less than two thousand years.
After Willa left the Thundercats, Lion-O gathered up the others for a quick talk and everyone agreed to with Isabella to San Francisco. Lynx-O was the only one who didn't really want to go so he offered to stay at the Cats Lair. When the quick meeting ended, Wilykit saw Isabella approach.
"So what have you decided?" she asked.
"We decided to take up your offer," Lion-O said. "But a couple of us are going to stay behind to watch Cats Lair."
"Alright. I'll let Terran stay behind to watch with your two Thundercats for back up protection."
"I thought it was against your Prime Directive to help," Lion-O said.
"It is against the Prime Directive but we do have another rule that states we are to help other alien races if they need it and this calls for it."
"Alright," Lion-O agreed.
"Good," Isabella said. "First thing in the morning, I'll head to your Cats Lair and we'll leave right after breakfast. Start early, get back by night fall."
"Agreed," everyone said.
"Until then." Isabella turned and left. She walked past all the Warrior Women and left the party. Not long after Isabella left, the Thundercats decided to head home themselves. They gave more birthday wishes to Willa and left the party. They knew they had to get a good night's rest since the next day was going to a busy one.
