Gard the Awe Inspiring

by Jet556

Meeting Lion-O in the wilderness one day, Gard takes him to the lost city of Dalriata were the Soul Stone just might be. But at Dalriata is a tribe of Komrev lead by a fearsome brute whom Gard has named Loarn. Either he finds the Soul Stone or he will be torn to pieces by the threatening Loarn. Could there possibly be a third option?

3. Loarn

Welcome back everyone. Loarn was originally meant to be Thulsa from "Challening the Komrev King" having survived his beating from Crinan but I felt it was better to keep Thulsa dead. Enjoy and review.

Loarn

Emerging from the entrance to the stairs that lead to the treasure vault, Gard saw a komrev walking his way and looking quite surprised at seeing him, it proceeded to beat its chest. It was Loarn! The leader of the Komrev tribe that lived at Dalriata and a fearsome brute if ever there was one! Loarn let out a cry and soon enough more komrev came running towards them.

Gard had to end this quickly before the rest of them were upon him!

Loarn jumped at Gard but Gard jumped higher causing the brute to crash into a column of a nearby building. The Komrev that had come to aid Loarn were very much confused about why their leader did not fight.

As Gard ran for the edge of the mountain that Dalriata sat upon, being pursued by more komrev, he hoped Lion-O was a good enough shot with a pistol to hit the komrev. Loarn had quickly regained consciousness and was at the cliff top as Gard climbed down barking orders to his companions who showed no intention to follow Gard down the cliff side! Loarn began to bark again and the komrev began to throw stones down at Gard.

"Lion-O!" shouted Gard down to his Thunderan friend. "Lion-O! Shoot now!"

Lion-O didn't even pause. He started to fire at the hairy forms at the top of the mountain! He event hit Loarn's right hand. It was at this point that the komrev changed their strategy from throwing rocks to rolling them off the cliffs.

Lion-O's work was good. The stones weren't aimed now!

Reaching the bottom, Gard held up a hand. "Maith thu, Lord of the ThunderCats!"

Lion-O shrugged. "I didn't do anything, you're the one who took the risks!"

"But you saved me… If their stones had been aimed then… Well, I'm still here." Gard gave Lion-O a pat on the back. "However, the Soul Stone was not there… I'm not sure anyone would hide anything in Dalriata with the komrev up there!"

Sitting down, Lion-O shrugged. "Gard, do you think we will ever the Soul Stone?"

"My wife used to have a saying Lion-O… 'Do your best and leave the rest, it will turn out alright, someday or night.'"

The End
