Fanfiction: Thunder cats Roar
Psychology warfare ?
The mutants were being defeated constantly by those revolting creatures, Thundercats.
"How can we defeat them? Every time we attack, Lion -O lifts that sword of his and defeats us?" The new mutant, Dugong man recounted their last mission who was not impressed by their tactics. "Maybe we should try something different." He suggested.
"What ?" Jackalman mocked.
" Any suggestions I am willing hear them?" (Scythe) Slythe hissed with sarcasm.
"Instead of using violence or weapon to defeat the Thundercats, we could use another warfare?" Dugong man volunteered humbly.
"What other kinds of warfare is there? War is supposed to be violent." Vulture man questioned.
"OOO, OOO, without violence, OOO, without destruction, no killing, no weapons ?" Monkian looked doubtfully. " No Fun !" Monkian sighed sadly.
The mutants reacted by laughing.
"Where is the fun if there is no killing?" Jackal man responded almost amused.
" There might be other ways to defeat the our enemies besides brute force ?" Dugong man sadly suggested.
"Ha, Ha ! Ha ! You sound like a coward, a fool, and a weakling." Slythe injected.
" You silly mutant ! We mutants have always done things in certain ways." Vulture man corrected arrogantly.
"Might makes right." Monkian reaffirmed.
Mumm- Ra could not help smiling at this foolish young servant who thought such nonsense. "Are you questioning the ancient spirits' long traditional military strategies, young one?" Or, is it one or Slythe's authority or expertise? We have always done things certain ways ."
"No, sir, my Lord Mom Ra, I am have complete confidence in your Mom dress's military wisdom and strategies." Dugong man pleaded pitifully begging on the floor. "For mercy, Great One !" I didn't mean to offend your greatness ! "
"What about my greatness? "Slythe remarked as he showed his feet while Dugong kissed Mumm -Ra's.
"That's quite enough already," Mumm- Ra brushed Dugong man aside. "He is right. The mutants reacted shocked. "You mutants, find another way to defeat the Thundercats. Perhaps I should give you some incentives. What do you want me to give you if you succeed in your tactics ?"
"Food, it would be nice like milk and cookies ." Muttered the silly half man half marine mammal creature.
"I might have replace you all with this young mutant to improve and find different procedures to your mutant's failures to defeat the Thundercats. You want me to bake cookies."
" If it wouldn't too much troubles, your Momma ra ship." Dugong asked humbly.
"Fine, as long as I get results." Mumm -ra condensed.
"You can't be seriously about putting him in charge?" Slythe spluttered in surprise. His eyes and his facial expressions were fixed in bewilderment. The rest of the mutants were equally stunned. Dugong man bowed graciously and asked to be excused to plan his goals.
"Go !" ordered the evil sorcerer, "The young fool. Don't be an idiot, Slythe. You teach him a lesson. Put him to good use." Chuckled Mumm ra evilly. Soon, all the rest of the mutants had started to cackled furiously, but only Monkian paused from his merriment.
"Milk and cookies."
"Sigh, now you are being an idiot, Monkian, you know I can't bake cookies." Mumm- ra snapped.
First thing in the morning, Slythe stood in front of the mutants. Vulture man, Monkian, Jackal man and Dugong man were listening attentively.
"Today, my fellow mutants, If we succeed, Mumm- ra said we will be rewarded !"
"Milk and Cookies ." Dugong man added.
"Yes, milk and cookies, No, to see the Thundercats humiliated, disgraced, and defeated is its own reward." Slythe corrected.
" Hurrah !" yelled the rest of the mutants all except Dugong man who still wanted the milk and cookies.
"Can I make the suggestions I want to use?" Dugong man reported.
"Make it quick, Dugong man." Slythe said annoyed.
"We should try to discredit the Thundercats by making them look incompetent, show the Third Earth citizens that mutants are really the heroes and that Thundercats are the villains."
"That is all wonderful, but now for reality. Now, Vulture man, you take care of our new weapons." Slythe ordered.
"Check ."
"Jackal man, you back him up."
"Affirmative."
"Monkian, you guard the rear and you, Dugong man, you run and panic." Both shook their heads.
Scythe ( Slythe) addressed the other mutants. " Let's repeat what we have to do . Vulture man ! "
"Take care of the new weapons." Vulture man confirmed .
"Jackal man ." Slythe ordered.
"Back him up." Jackal man affirmed.
" Monkian ."
"OOO ! OOO! Guard the rear. OOO !"
Dugong man, upon seeing the ancient guardian mummy priest, Mumm Ra started to shout excitedly as a child would. " Mom ra Mom ra !"
Mumm Ra replied gently, "I am not your mother. I am your grandmother. Do you want some milk and cookies?"
" I thought Mumm- rana was the grandma." Dugong man questioned.
Slythe clearly irritated from this outburst, " Dugong man !"
Dugong man sighed. " Run away if the whole army is after me. Scream, panic, and run away and hide as fast as you can. "
"Don't you forget it, Dugong man ." Slythe reminded.
Dugong man sighed a bit confused at why he wasn't allowed to fight like other mutants. Maybe this was part of the new non-violent plan he had suggested. He had recommended using scare tactics such as discrediting the Thundercats, making them the bad guys, or even showing the mutants as heroic.
"It is important to make sure the Thundercats aren't aware of this trap we have set for them." Slythe commanded them to obey.
Dugong man would do his part even if it killed him. He had one regret that he didn't print out all those anti-Thundercats pamphlets and distribute them all over Third Earth showing Mumm -ra as the Third Earth's real, native, true, leader, not that usurping spoiled cat brat . He imagined it as a grand endeavor towards pro-Third Earth movement toward new nationalism on a planetary scale. He had to find a way to convinced the other mutants of his plans.
"Yes, Thundercats must be kept unaware." Dugong man muttered in reply to Slythe orders. He had to create a diversion. He was going to be successful in this battle with Thundercats. He was going to do exactly what he was ordered to do so by Plun - Darr.
End of Part One.
