Welcome, everyone. This new story will put more emphasis on Gard and Donalbain's relationship as enemies. Enjoy and review.
Gard's Arrival
An axe against a sword. That was how things would be. Gard's single-bladed battle axe against Donalbain's sword that had the skull of a small animal as pommel. Black blood would fall upon the ground and one day one of them would lie dead.
With Cheetara and the young caracal Caracalla did Gard that day join the other ThunderCats. Seeing the Old Savage, Lion-O and Tygra both approached with smiles upon their faces.
"It is good to see you, Gard." Lion-O said.
"How is Wilusa?" Tygra asked.
"Well, we recently had a siege so there is a bit of getting used to things being back to normal." Said the grey-skinned humanoid. He scratched a scar on his right shoulder as he looked over to Kat and Kit. "How are those two doing?"
"They are fine." Answered Panthro as he approached. "What were the casualties?"
"Worse for the Labinnac." Gard answered. "Mumm-Ra has given them cannons."
"Cannons?" Cheetara asked, shocked by what she heard. Her red eyes were wide for a moment before she closed them and shook her head. "That is the last thing they need."
"Was the High Warlord there?" Lion-O asked.
"He fought and died there." Gard answered, giving a chuckle. "That winged one shall fly no more." He then looked down at Caracalla, and gave the boy a smile. "But let us talk no more of this. Let Cheetara and I introduce this young fellow: Caracalla."
The eight-year old caracal boy smiled. He was lean and his clothes had seen better day. The adult ThunderCats all looked at him with a different expression on their face. Lion-O returned Caracalla's smile, Tygra having never seen a caracal before raised an eyebrow and Panthro gave a look that said he had seen caracals before.
"Where did you find him?" Tygra asked.
"Gnozzuz." Cheetara answered.
"I thought that place had fallen ten years ago!" Panthro exclaimed.
"Obviously not." Cheetara commented. "We had to rescue Balor and Brigid from it."
"What?" Lion-O asked, as shocked as Tygra was who stood there with his mouth hanging open.
"A story for later." Gard said. "Where is Donalbain?"
