chapter 2

Lion-o and Liosella had come back from their honeymoon. "Liosella my lovely lady of the Thundercats," Lion-o said.

"You are my handsome lord of the Thundercats." Liosella said and they kissed.

"Get a room you two," Panthro said.

"Sorry," Lion-o said.

"It's okay you two are fine just try to take this some where a little more private." Panthro said.

Over the next two years and a half Lion-o and Liosella have been doing a good job as the lord and lady of the Thundercats. Liosella had been seeing several of third earth natives with children. She saw how amazing it was mother and father loving on their children and hearing the child's happy laughter. She wanted that more than anything. She was going to talk to Lion-o about it when he got home.

Lion-o saw all the children too. He wondered maybe soon he should have an heir. He thought it would be nice to be a father. Snarf saw Lion-o looking at the families. "What is it Lion-o?" Snarf asked.

"I was thinking about something when I saw these families with children," Lion-o said.

"Thinking about what?" Snarf asked.

"I was thinking maybe that Liosella and I should have a baby, because it must be wonderful to be a father," Lion-o said.

"It is, well I was never a father myself but I helped your father take care of you," Snarf said.

"I know, I just hope Liosella will like the idea of having a baby." Lion-o said.

"She probably will, when you two do have a baby I can help because old Snarf took care of you when you were little." Snarf said.

"Thank you Snarf I appreciate that." Lion-o said. So he went to talk to Liosella.

He found her in their bedroom. "Hey Liosella we need to talk to you about something." Lion-o said.

"I want to talk to you about something too," Liosella said.

"You go first," Lion-o said.

"Okay I think we should have a baby." Liosella said.

"That's what I wanted to talk about too," Lion-o said.

"That's wonderful!" Liosella said.

So they began to try and have a baby. Finally one day Pumyra told them the good news they were going to have a baby.

"This is wonderful Lion-o we are going to be parents!" Liosella said.

"I know this is wonderful," Lion-o said.

"Lion-o your child will be special in several ways." Jaga said.

"Jaga! What do you mean?" Lion-o asked.

"Your child will be special as in many ways on way will be the cub's appearance," Jaga said.

"How?" Lion-o asked.

"Your child will be white as the stars in the night sky or as the first snow of winter. The cub's eyes will be as blue as the sky during the day. There are more special things about your child your child will grow into a fine leader for the Thundercats and that will go on for generations to come." Jaga said and left.

"Wow this new information on our child is of the up most importance," Lion-o said,

"Yes it is," Liosella said.

The other Thundercats were happy to hear that there was going to be an heir to the Thundercats. They were shocked when they heard what Jaga had said.

"This makes this heir to the Thundercats very important," Panthro said.

The friends of the Thundercats heard the good news.

Time began to pass and Liosella began to grow. She was showing she was pregnant.

Lion-o was out and got a message from Pumyra it was about Liosella. He became really worried she was five months pregnant. He rushed to new cats lair.

"Is she alright Lion-o she just has to be put on bed rest for the rest of her pregnancy. She has been overdoing it." Pumyra told him.

Lion-o sighed in relief. "Do not worry dear we will help with your chores and tend to you." Lion-o said.

"Thank you Lion-o," Liosella said.

Lion-o and the others sometimes brought in meals, snacks and books for Liosella. She enjoyed because Lion-o would start to really pamper her. Sometimes she didn't like it when Lion-o wouldn't stop bothering her. "Trust me I'm fine I will let you know if I need anything." she would tell him.

"I know, I'm just worried." Lion-o said.

"I'll be fine," Liosella said.

Pumyra gave Liosella a check up. "That is a strong cub you got there, sure will be a healthy when it's born." she said.

"Yes, I'm just too busy thinking about what Jaga told us about my child's future." Liosella said.

"Liosella all that cub will care about when it is born is eating and sleeping and being cared for." Pumyra said. "You need to focus on eating and resting too," she said.

Before they knew it, Summer had arrived. They were pretty excited the cub was going to come very soon. On a sunny day in July Lion-o and Liosella were pretty excited about the baby coming. Lion-o was out helping Torr with the refugees.

Lion-o and Torr were talking to each other. "There will be a big party a couple of weeks after the child is born," Lion-o said.

"Great that I know I will be there," Torr said.

"Yes and Tygra will bring some of our friends from third earth to meet the child, after all any friend of mine should be a friend of my cub." Lion-o said.

"Yes," Torr said.

"Torr can you come over here for seconded your son needs a little bit of help." Torr's wife called.

"Coming dear," Torr said and hurried off.

Meanwhile at Cat's lair Liosella got a weird look on her face. "Oh my it's time,' she said.

"Time?" Bengali asked.

"Okay Liosella let's go to the birthing room." Pumyra said. "Cheetara come with me," she said.

"We need to tell Lion-o what's going on," Panthro said.

Panthro rushed over and called Lion-o on the communicator. "Lion-o come in," Panthro said.

At the village.

"What is it Panthro? Is everything alright?" Lion-o asked.

"You better get over here Liosella is in labor," Panthro said.

"Alright I'm coming," Lion-o said. Torr came up. "Torr I have to get going," he said.

"Why?" Torr asked.

"I'm about to become a father!" Lion-o said.

"Liosella is going to have the baby oh my!" Torr said.

"Which is why I have to hurry," Lion-o said.

"You better going," Torr said.

Then Lion-o rushed off. Lion-o made it to cat's lair. "Lion-o you got here fast, Pumyra told us to tell you to wait out here," Bengali said.

"I wish I could be in there with her," Lion-o said.

"Don't worry I'm sure everything is fine," Lynx-o said.

"Cheetara is helping Pumyra so don't worry about a thing," Panthro said.

"Yes so stay calm." Bengali said.

Lion-o began to pace. He was really worried about Liosella. They were watching him pace.

Meanwhile in the birthing room Liosella was in a lot of pain. "Everything is going fine it shouldn't be long now," Pumyra said. "Cheetara can you get the boiling water?" she asked.

"On it," Cheetara said. She came out and grabbed the kettle. Then rushed back.

Lion-o and the other Thundercats waited and waited. Then they heard a baby crying. Lion-o looked at the door and Pumyra came out. "Is she alright?" Lion-o asked.

"Yes, she is just tired," Pumyra said.

"That's relief," Lion-o said.

"Lion-o you should be very happy you are now the father of a beautiful baby girl," Pumyra said.

"I have a daughter," Lion-o said smiling.

"Congratulations Lion-o," Snarf said.

"Yes we have a future lady of the Thundercats." Panthro said.
