Chapter 8
Snarfer was suddenly jerked away from the screen by the noises that filled the Tower of Omens' control room. Sensors were going off everywhere and immediately the little snarf turned to the secondary screen.
"What is it?" Pumyra asked.
"The Berbil village is under attack!" Snarfer shouted.
"By whom?" The puma asked.
"Mumm-Ra and…" he stopped what he was about to say sounded strange and stupid.
"…Lion-O and Cheetara."
"What?" Pumyra asked.
"I have to go." Snarfer said and he quickly ended the call. Pumyra couldn't get anything out before the snarf ended it.
"We have to get to Third Earth. Call the base and get ten more of your troops to come with us. The remaining troops will have to protect those that are left behind. We have to leave now!" Shouting caused pain to shoot through the puma's sides.
"You can't go anywhere; you're in no shape…" Colonel Cougara tried to argue.
"I gave you a direct order! Now!" Pumyra tried to ignore the pain shooting through her sides. No more argument came from the cougar and he quickly did as he was told.
WWWWWWWWWWWW
On Third Earth, Mumm-Ra watched as his two new slaves rounded up the Berbils. The furry mechanical teddy bears were the nonviolent type and they were shocked by the actions of their friends.
"Why are you doing this, Lion-O?" Rober-Bill asked in his mechanical tone. The Lord of the ThunderCats didn't respond as he tied the Berbil to the others.
"Pay attention you mechanical furballs! I am your new master. You will build this planet in my likeness. Your precious ThunderCats have all fallen and there is no one to save you." Mumm-Ra shouted.
"Guess again you bag of bones!" Came a high pitched cry. The ever-living source of evil turned around and saw Snarfer.
"You are going to stop me?" He laughed.
"I am with the help of my friends." Snarfer smiled and from the trees emerged Willa, Nada, and thirty more Warrior Maidens. Quickly, the Maidens formed ranks and readied their bows.
"Ha! Lion-O! Cheetara! Destroy them!" Mumm-Ra crowed. The two ThunderCats turned from the Berbils and focused on the Warrior Maidens. The battle was about to begin.
WWWWWWWWWWW
Snarf knew that Mumm-Ra and the two ThunderCats would easily overtake the Berbils, what he didn't know was that Snarfer had enlisted the Warrior Maidens help.
"I have to get the Eye of Thundera from Mumm-Ra. The others are on their way here and once they arrive, no one will be able to stop them. Snarf, snarf." He said aloud. Quickly, the snarf took what was left of the Sword of Omens in his mouth and headed toward the Tower of Omens.
