Chapter 10
The Warrior Maidens kept the prisoners tied up in the hanger bay while Snarf showed Snarfer the Sword of Omens up in the control room. Both didn't know how they could get the Eye of Thundera back into the Sword's hilt.
"I wish Lion-O was here." Snarf said, almost whining.
"He is." Snarfer said; a little confused.
"That's not Lion-O. He's just a shell being controlled by that miserable mummy." Snarf spat. The younger snarf made a tight smile. He understood what his uncle was saying, until Lion-O and the rest if the ThunderCats were back to normal it was up to them and their friends.
Sensors went off and Snarfer punched a series of buttons to bring up the video screen. Pumyra's face appeared along with that of Colonel Cougara.
"We're an hour out." The cougar said.
"Good. The Warrior Maidens have Lion-O and Cheetara tied up in the hanger bay but the Feliner has already landed at Mumm-Ra's black pyramid." Snarf told them.
"How long since it landed?" This time it was Pumyra who spoke.
"It was at least an hour ago." Snarf said. A look of anger crossed the puma's face.
"Damn!" She cursed. Pumyra grabbed her sides, immediately regretting raising her voice.
"There's more bad news." Snarfer piped in. Snarf didn't want to say anything about the Sword over the airwaves.
"What else happened?" Pumyra's eyes went wide.
"I'll explain when you get here. Just hurry up." Snarf said. He immediately cut the call off before anything else could be said.
"Why'd you do that? Snarfer, snarfer." The younger snarf asked.
"The world can't know about the Sword of Omens or the Eye of Thundera being separated. Anyone intercepting our conversation could find out and alert other enemies. You think Mumm-Ra is bad by himself, how would adding other villains make it any better?" Snarf asked him. Snarfer only nodded and his uncle continued by saying,
"I'm going down to the hanger bay."
WWWWWWWWWWWWW
Mumm-Ra assembled the remaining ThunderCats in front of him. Panthro, Tygra, Ben-Gali, Lynx-O, WilyKit, and WilyKat stood waiting for their orders.
"Slaves!" The mummy shouted.
"You will help me shape this planet back into its original form. I will rule Third Earth and New Thundera in short order or I will destroy you." He continued. Little do they know that when all the hard work is done, I will destroy them anyway, Mumm-Ra thought to himself.
"Yes, master." The ThunderCats answered.
"Our first objective will be to enslave the peoples of this planet. Every Wolo, every Berbil, every Balkan, and every Warrior Maiden will be needed to reconstruct my evil empire." Mumm-Ra explained.
"Yes, master." Again the ThunderCats replied.
"Panthro and Tygra you will move in from the ground taking the Berbils first. Ben-Gali and Lynx-O will provide air support in your flying contraption. Bring them back here and then attack the Wolos and Balkans." The ever-living source of evil commanded. Another 'yes, master' was heard and the four ThunderCats headed out of the black pyramid.
"WilyKit, WilyKat, I have a special job for you." Mumm-Ra smirked.
"You will scope out the Tower of Omens and report back to me what you see." He continued. The ThunderKittens nodded and quickly raced out of the pyramid. Hopping onto their Space Boards, which had been unloaded from the Feliner, the two headed for the Tower.
