Thundercats
ThunderKids Part Three:
Corrections of the Future
Far away from Cat's lair, Lion-O and the other Thundercats were out searching for WilyKit and WilyKat. Panthro, Lion-O, Tygra, Snarf and Snarfer were riding in the ThunderTank, while Cheetara was out scouting elsewhere. As they neared the Berbil Village Lion-O decided to stop and ask the Berbils if they had seen the ThunderKittens. As the ThunderTank slowly rolled to a stop the Berbils came out of their huts to welcome the Thundercats.
"Hello Lion-O," RoBear Bill said to the Lord of the Thundercats as he emerged from the ThunderTank. His voice the metallic clang and twang of electronics.
"Hi there RoBear Bill," Lion-O said in reply to the Berbils leader.
"You seem troubled Lion-O," RoBear Bill continued.
"Yes, RoBear Bill. We are out looking for the ThunderKittens, WilyKat and Kit. You wouldn't have seen them would you?" the Lord of the Thundercats asked slightly worried.
"No, Lion-O we haven't. They haven't come this way but if we see them we will tell them to head back to Cat's Lair."
"Thanks, RoBear Bill. Have you noticed anything unusual lately? The ThunderKittens were acting a little weird when they left," Lion-O continued as his worry continued to rise.
"No Lion-O. Nothing out of the ordinary has happened."
"Thank you again RoBear Bill," Lion-O said getting slightly agitated that the ThunderKittens were still lost. "Well we will be on our way now. We have to find the ThunderKittens."
"Of course Lion-O," RoBear Bill said as Lion-O turned to leave. "Wait Lion-O," he called after the lord of the Thundercats.
"Yes RoBear Bill," Lion-O said as he turned around. Hope of news forgotten was very evident in his voice. "Did you forget something?"
"Just that your fellow Thundercats were here earlier looking for you. They came up and asked if you and the rest of the Thundercats had been here yet. They didn't mention the ThunderKittens though. They said that they would meet up with you later. Good luck finding the ThunderKittens."
"Others, RoBear Bill?" Lion-O asked surprised. "Yes Lion-O. There were three of them. Two males and one female. They seemed very determined to find you and the others." "That's strange. Lynx-O, Pumyra, and Bengali said that they were going to stay at Cat's Lair and guard it from attack," Tygra said as he listened shocked that they would leave the Cat's Lair unattended.
"It wasn't them Master Tygra," RoBear Bill said. "It was a different group of Thundercats." The Thundercats stared at RoBear Bill in disbelief.
"What other Thundercats RoBear Bill?" Panthro said stepping forward.
"We don't know Lord Panthro. There were three of them and they asked for Lion-O and then left. We thought it strange that they wouldn't stay longer but they seemed to be in a hurry just like you are."
"Something's not right," Snarf said as he stood on his tail and looked around. "Three extra Thundercats?"
"That seems to be the Berbils story Uncle Osbe--- I mean Uncle Snarf," Snarfer said correcting himself as Snarf gave him a displeasing look.
"Well thank you for that information RoBear Bill," Lion-O said as the other Thundercats were already getting back in the ThunderTank. "Keep a look out for the ThunderKittens for us RoBear Bill," Lion-O added as the ThunderTank pulled away.
On the other side of the forest Cheetara was running towards the Wooloo Village. She had just visited the Amazons and Willa. They had no new information on the whereabouts of the missing ThunderKittens.
"No Cheetara," Willa had said when asked if the ThunderKittens had been through the forest. "We have not seen the young ones that you seek."
"Thank you Willa," Cheetara had said as she thought of where to check next for the missing ThunderKittens.
"Cheetara wait," Lilith had said as she closed in on the speedy Cheetara as she was leaving the Amazon Village. "I'm sorry to stop you like this I know that you are searching for the missing ThunderKittens but I thought that you should know something."
"Yes Lilith," Cheetara said as she slowed to a halt to talk to the Amazon maiden.
"Well, I'm surprised that Willa didn't remember this but there were a group of Thundercats here earlier looking for Lion-O and the other Thundercats."
"A group of Thundercats, Lilith?" Cheetara said surprised at the news she had received from the Amazon maiden.
"Yes, two of them. They were a little older than WilyKat and Kit. They didn't say anything about the other ThunderKittens though. Maybe that's why Willa didn't say anything. Maybe she thought that they had been here before you and were just trying to give Lion-O their news."
"Lilith," the speedy Cheetara said as she halted Lilith from leaving. "Did you happen to recognize who the Thundercats were?"
"Why no Cheetara. They just came through asked about Lion-O and left. I didn't get too good of a look at them." Lilith struggled to think of further details to give Cheetara. "I'm sorry Cheetara but I really don't remember too much about them. It's like it was just a dream or a memory from long ago."
Cheetara looked at her Amazon friend a little worried. She placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "Thanks for the information Lilith. I will make sure Lion-O knows about it when I see him."
"Take care Cheetara," Lilith said as she was already retreating into the trees back to the Amazon village.
Now Cheetara was headed out to look once more for the missing WilyKit and WilyKat. Lilith's words kept resounding through her head as she neared the Wooloo Village. Two different ThunderKittens? She slowed down as she got close to the edge of the forest. Her sixth sense started to act a little weird. She walked a little farther before turning around to look back to where she had just come through the forest. Something in the forest seemed to be calling her back. She looked over her shoulder at the Wooloo Village. She headed slowly back into the forest keeping all her attention on her surroundings.
A snicker came from behind a cluster of trees. The branches rustled towards her right. Cheetara turned to look in the direction of the sound just to hear the snickering from behind her. As she slowly turned around trying to identify just where the laughter was coming from the branches above her head started the shake.
Cheetara leapt back to avoid any trap that may come from above her. When she landed her left leg was suddenly jerked from under her and she soon found herself hanging upside down. She could hear the laughing again this time it was getting louder and closer to her. As she swung helpless she saw the branches in front of her start to move. "Ok," she said mustering as much courage as she could manage. "You've had your fun WilyKit and WilyKat. Now it's time to return to Cat's Lair."
The laughter stopped for a second only to return louder and heartier. The branches in front of her parted and out stepped two figures no older than the missing ThunderKittens. They each wore a black jumpsuit with the Thundercat's insignia in blazing red on their chests.
"WilyKit," the one on the left said with a laugh. She had short- cropped brown hair and her eyes belied her youth.
"WilyKat," the right one said with as much humor as his counterpart. His hair was of a medium length and spotted. The two stood on either side of the hanging Cheetara. "I thought you were supposed to be fast," the male said as he pushed her towards his female counterpart.
"And I thought that you were supposed to have an uncanny sixth sense," the female said as she laughed and pushed Cheetara back towards her companion.
"Who are you two?" Cheetara said growing frustrated that she was being ridiculed by the two cubs.
The two laughed as they continued to push Cheetara back and forth. They kept up their little game for a little while before replying to the question.
"I am Oclian," the male said. "And this is Pampiana," he said as he pointed to his companion.
"Yes," Pampiana said with a mischievous smile on her face.
"You two are the ones who were at the Amazon Village looking for Lion- O weren't you?" Cheetara said with a hint of anger growing in her voice.
The twins looked at each other surprised. They seemed to talk to one another without saying a word. They both turned to look at the prone Cheetara before holding their private conversation again. Finally, Oclian looked at Cheetara and gave her a swift right hook to the rib cage. "Yes," he said smiling from the visible pain he had inflicted on the helpless Cheetara. "We were at the Amazon Village."
"However," Pampiana said as she herself gave Cheetara a few blows of her own. "We are surprised that Willa could remember such an encounter," she punctuated the last word with a swift kick to Cheetara's spine. The helpless Thundercat cried out.
"Yes," the male twin said as he continued his torture on Cheetara. "It is amazing that she was able to remember anything of that meeting," he stopped in mid swing and gave his sister a look. Once again they seemed to have their own little conversation going without a word said.
Cheetara gave a quiet sigh of relief for a stop in the pain, however short it was. She hung there in the forest helpless while the two cubs beat her and mocked her. She was surprised at how strong the two of them were for how young they were. Or seemed. She opened her mouth to give them a sharp retort. But as soon as she was about to start to talk Oclian gave her a sharp kick to the temple knocking her unconscious.
"There must be someway that they remembered even through the magic," Oclian said to his sister.
"Yes, but how?" she asked amazed that such a thing was possible. "The only way that they would have been able to remember was if they hadn't been in our presence during our visit."
"But they still would not be able to remember too much," Oclian replied getting upset that news of their passing had made it to the now unconscious Cheetara.
"Well all that she did know," Pampiana said indicating the still hanging Thundercat. "Is that we were there. She thought us the ThunderKittens."
"Yes, so maybe we are still safe," Oclian said calming down slightly.
"You have to admit brother that it is funny that she thought us our parents."
"Yes sis that is something to consider," he said as he slowly cut the prone Cheetara from the tree and drug her body behind the cluster of trees that they had hidden behind and put her on a hoverboard and carried her from the forest to the south.
Stay tuned for more.
