chapter 18
The Thundercats made it to a city. It was the dog city.
"Let's get the supplies and leave I got a lot of bad memories of this town." Panthro said.
"You have been uneasy all morning what happened here Panthro?" Lion-o asked.
"Forget kid I don't want to give you nightmares." Panthro said.
"He just doesn't want to get fleas from the inhabitants." Tygra said.
"Come on dogs aren't that bad." Wilykat said. "We been around them is the slums of Thundera they made the best bone stew." he said.
"Bone stew let's get some while we're here." Wilykit said.
"Don't wander off." Cheetara said.
"Go with them Snarf." Lion-o said. Snarf meowed and ran off after the kittens.
"Hey guys check this out." Tygra said.
They saw poster of two cats. "A cat?" Lion-o said. "One of them is Liosella." He said
"This fella must of survive the fall of Thundera," Tygra asked.
"It must be," Cheetara said.
"Now he has to survive the pit." Panthro said.
They were in a big arena and saw a big cyborg fighting some dogs and defeating them.
"This is the pit where prisoners and slaves fight to survive." Panthro said.
"And entertain like I need another reason not to like dogs." Tygra said.
"Whose in charge?" Lion-o asked a local.
The dog pointed to balcony.
They went up to it. "What do you know about thes cats?" Lion-o said showing the dog.
"They are fighters and belongs to me," the dog answered.
"They don't belong to anyone, and the woman is my wife." Lion-o said.
"Is that so?" The dog growled.
"Yeah they are free cats now," Lion-o said.
The dog growled and stood up he was big. "You're welcome to try." the dog said.
"Don't let him scare you Lion-o," Panthro said.
"Stay out of it Panthro,' Cheetara said.
"He may have been tough once now he's too old and scrawny," Panthro said.
"Oh, brother," Tygra said.
"You little furball!" the dog said.
"You stupid ugly mutt!" Panthro said.
The dog growled and Panthro started to growl. They grasped hands.
"Been a long time Dobo," Panthro said.
"A lifetime Panthro," Dobo said.
"I can see that," Panthro said.
"Are they friends?" Tygra asked.
"I can't tell," Cheetara said.
"If you want to see your cats they're up against Gormax next." Dobo said.
The cat (a lion) and Liosella came out and fought against the Cyborg.
"They don't stand a chance against that thing," Lion-o said.
Meanwhile the kittens were eating bowls of bone stew.
They saw a raccoon take something out of someones bag. "Looks like all slums have pickpockets," Wilykat said.
The raccoon came over. "Hello kids might I have word my name is Tookit." he said.
"Nice try we know all about pick-pocketing." Wilykat said.
The raccoon left. "My flupe!" Wilykit said.
"My flank!" Wilykat said.
They rushed after the raccoon.
Liosella and the other cat took down Gormax. "And Calon and Liosella win again, you cat's train your warriors well they are making me some money," Dobo said.
Lion-o went to help free Calon and Liosella. "Liosella," Lion-o said.
Liosella saw Lion-o and cried from relief. "Lion-o I never gave up hope I knew you would come!" Then held his hand.
But Calon started yelling got Dobo's attention and Lion-o got caught.
"That is our king Dobo," Panthro said.
"He tried to steal from me, but I will make an acceptation since Panthro's a friend," Dobo said.
"We met at the pit, I was prisoner of war Dobo was a thief we fought as team, I guess they thought it was funny to see dog and cat fight together." Panthro said.
"Yes we won every fight until Panthro escaped and fought on my own." Dobo said.
"Yes he was the first slave to become pit master." Panthro said.
Calon and Lion-o faced off against each other and Calon began to beat up Lion-o. Liosella was trying to avoid hurting Lion-o.
"This proves cats have no loyalty like when you left forcing me to fight all our enemies alone." Dob said.
"I escaped because I found out the match the next day was a death match." Panthro said.
"It wouldn't have been your first." Dobo said.
"It was between you and me," Panthro said.
"You were afraid you would have lost?" Dobo asked.
"No I was afraid I would've won." Panthro said.
Dobo looked shocked.
"I won't killed my king or queen Dobo," Calon said.
"I will now kill my my husband and king." Liosella said.
"I will not hurt fellow cat wether my wife and queen or not," Lion-o said.
"The penalty for forfeit is death." Dobo said.
The crowd demanded they should live.
"It seems loyalty is not just a trait of the dogs." Dobo said.
"You have earned my respect you are free cats." he said.
The crowd cheered.
Liosella bandaged Lion-o and Calon's wounds.
"Calon you said you were among other cat slaves where?" Lion-o asked.
"A mining operation in mount Plun-Darr," Calon said pointing at a creepy place.
