It was morning time, as you stand there with the others watching Panthro as he was fixing the Thundertank. It had stopped running. Panthro was a big Thunderian, he was the general that Cheetera told you the king was honoring when everyone thought he was dead.
And from the look of it he wasn't though he seem upset. "I thought he'd be smaller."Lion-O says about Panthro.
"I thought he'd be less spiker."Cheetera, also comments on Panthro.
"He's really big."you comment as well.
"Go on Lord of the Thundercats."Tygra tells Lion-O, pushing him forward."Go see if your loyal subject needs help with his tank. That is unless your scared."He taunts him.
Lion-O grunts at him, but makes his way over to Panthro."Hey Panthro."
"Go away."Panthro dryly tells him. As he keep hammering on the tank."Can't you see I'm busy."
"Oh come on, your really just going to ignore us forever. What are you so grumpy about anyway?"Lion-O asked him.
"Your standing on my samoflange."Panthro tells him.
Lion-O looks down and gets off it"Oh, sorry. Umm maybe I can help, I've dabbled in a little tech myself."
Panthro stops as he looks at him."The Thundertank is out of Thunderdrillum. Now I got to risk my hid, to get more at the Cloud Peck Mine."He points, as everyone looks at the tall mountain in the distance.
"If your going after Thunderdrillum, we're coming with you."Lion-O tells him.
"Let me put this as respectfully as I can."Panthro"No."
"I am the King, ."Lion-O tells him. Panthro jumps down off the tank, as he looks at Lion-O. He was way more taller and more built then him.
"Fine, but if you slow me down or get in my way. Your on your own."Panthro tells him, he then turns and looks at the rest of you"Any questions?"he asked.
"...Whats a Samoflange?"Tygra asked him.
You turn looking back at the tall mine. Something didn't seem right. You just stared at the mine when something flashed in your mind.
"This is so beautiful. Oh wow." a small child's voice in your mind, as you see their hands holding a few small little dark pinkish crystals."Mommy,Daddy look."
It ends, as you touch your head for a second. That scene in your mind. You knew that voice the same one you heard back in the Thorn forest. It was your voice. But where did the memory come from.
"Zahra ready?"Cheetera asked you, as she placed a hand on your shoulder.
You snap out of it, turning to look at her. Regaining your normal face expression. You look around at the others."We're all going?"you asked her.
"No the twins are staying here."Tygra tells you"Along with Snarf."
"Are you ready to go or not. Your wasting my time, just thinking about it."Panthro tells you.
"Hey, leave her alone."Lion-O tells him.
"I'm staying."you tell them.
"Why?"Lion-O asked you.
You look back at the mine, then over at the twins and Snarf, as you walk away from them."No reason, this is not a journey for me to do."you tell them. Amun sits down by your heel.
You turn around and look at them"Are you sure?"Cheetera asked you.
You nod your head"Yes."you tell her.
"Ok then."Cheetera"We'll see you guys when we get back."
"Bye"the twins wave to them. As you all watched them leave, Cheetera and Lion-O wave back. You watch them, then look at Lion-O he gives you a smile. But you turn your back to him, as you go inside the tank.
His smile drops, as does his hand, he turns around to walk with the group. Tygra looks at him,then turns back to see you back outside the tank.
It didn't take long for them to leave completely. You look around at the area you where in. The trees where dead, but it still gave you enough cover."Hey Zahra look at this."WilyKat calls to you.
You turn and see him, by some of the controls of the tank."Aww this is neat too."WilyKit as she goes by something as well.
Snarf sniffs a few things."Come"you tell the three of them, as you use your energy to pick them up, taking them outside. Using your energy you close the hatch to the tank.
Placing them down on the ground, they look up at you"What was that for?"WilyKat asked you.
"We're going to look for food."you tell them"While they take the task of getting the fuel, we will get the fuel needed for our bodies."You look at a few sticks on the ground with some sharp rocks by them, you levitate them over to you, two long sticks and rocks. Tying them up with your energy as you give them to the twins.
"Spears?"WilyKit looks at them, then up at you"What are they for?"
"There is a stream nearby, we're going fishing."you tell them as you start to walk off, Amun follows you. The twins look at eachother, Snarf looks up at then run after you.
"Can't you just teleport us there."WilyKit complains.
It didn't long for you to reach the river, and like you said there where some fish in there. You stand looking down at them. The twins stand next to you, looking down as well.
"This looks easy."WilyKat boost, as he gets his spear ready, and stabs the water"Ha, got something. What?"he realized it was stuck, he pulls it out and falls back. His sister laughs at him.
"Not so easy."she tease him.
"Oh, yeah let me see you try."he tells her. She stops laughing.
He gets back up"It's like this."you form a energy spear as you aim it, then throw it in a flash. You pull it out with the fish in the spear. You turn and show them"Don't rush in it, now you both try. Stay calm and relax."
They look at you with wide eyes, then at eachother. And finally down at the river. Raising their spears up, they aim and finally throw. Only to splash eachother. Amun and Snarf move out the way, as they look at now wet twins.
"Calm down."you tell them
They look back down at the fish, and go again. And again. Only to do the samething. You watch them both, they where having trouble, you sigh. You where about to go and help them, when WilyKit laughs at his sister. You look and see why, she slipped in all the way and got a fish on her head. She laughs at this as well.
You look at them both, as they laughed. Snarf joined in with them and Amun started to yelp at them wagging his tail. They all where enjoying this moment. You couldn't help but not smile.
"Hey Zahra we caught a fish"WilyKit tells you.
"So you did. So you did."you tell them.
She gets up and takes the fish off her head, holding it out to you. You take it as you place it down on the bank.
"Hey another one."WilyKat yells,he goes and dives for the fish, splashing in the water. A fish jumps out, Snarf jumps up and catches it in his mouth. They laugh more, he goes and places it down on the banks and hurries back into the water.
You relax, as you stand back letting them do what they wanted in catching the fish."I will be back, I'm going to go and find the vegetation."
"Ok"they yell to you, you leave them. As you listen to the laughter.
You find some vegetation, and collected a fair amount. You pick some fruit up in the tree, as you place in your homemade basket you made.
It was quiet here by yourself. It has been along time since you had this silence to yourself. You did want to go to the mine. But you choose not too, you didn't know why.
You place a fruit in the basket, it was already almost full. You felt the wind current run through your hair. It felt good.
You run your fingers through it."There you are Zahra." a kind voice calls to you.
You stop picking fruit, as you turn around looking around. To find no one there.
"Zahra, what did you find?"the same voice.
This wasn't your voice at all, this voice was one weren't sure you've heard before. You look around, not paying attention from who was behind you, when you felt someone touch you.
You felt someone touch you, as you turn around looking up, due to your height. You smile"..."as two strong arms lift you up in the air.
"Sing for me Zahra" a strong voice, different from the other one tells you.
You felt them place your cheek on theirs. You hugged this person. They felt so warm to you. You open your mouth and started.
WilyKat who had touched you to get your attention. Heard you sing, along with his sister and Snarf and Amun. He takes his hand off you.
They just listen to you sing, your voice carried into the wind as you sung.
WilyKat looks at his sister, he saw the look on her face. As if she remembered something from this song you sang. She looks back up at you, then over at her brother.
"...I've heard this song."She tells him, he saw the look in her eyes, they where wide. Like she was confused a bit.
Amun looks at them, then at you. He goes over to you, placing a paw on your foot as he calls for you.
You stop singing, as you look down at him. He looks up at you, turning around you see the twins."You guys are back."
You then noticed WilyKit's face expression"Whats wrong?"you asked her brother. Who was comforting her.
"I don't know, when you started to sing. She got like this."he tells you.
You look at him disbelief"I don't sing. WilyKit are you ok?"you asked her getting down to her level.
She slowly looks up at you, her eyes stared into yours. When they did, she starts to speak"I've heard that song before."she tells you, her words trembled as she spoke to you about this"How do you know that...song?"
"What song?"you look at her.
She looks at you, and realizes that you didn't know. She seem a bit hurt by this. But lets it go, wiping her eyes. Giving you back her normal smile."Never mind, we got the fish."she tells you.
You stand back up,placing a hand on her head"Then lets head back."You tell them, turning to walk back to the tank.
Nighttime came, by the time Panthro and the others return, they see in the distance from the camp. A fire was started as well, they smelt something else.
They come into view to see you and twins where eating. They even caught you laughing at what Amun and Snarf where doing.
"Well, didn't know we where having a party."Cheetera smiles.
You turn around to see them,as they come over. Looking at all the food that was made.
"Everything looks and smells good."Lion-O says,as he sits down with the rest.
"So you guys went hunting?"Tygra asked as he gets some food.
"Yeah, we stocked up some fuel for bodies."WilyKit tells them.
"Hmmm, this is really good."Cheetera"You guys did all this?"
"Zahra did."WilyKat tells her.
They look at you"You did Zahra?"Cheetera asked you.
You didn't say anything,as you finish what was left of your food. Getting up, you turn and leave the group.
You make it to a clearing, where the light of moon shined the most, you stand in the center of it. The wind current was low, the night sky was chilled. You just stood there as you listen to everything around you. It was like music to you, you stared down at the ground. You thought back to WilyKit, how she looked at you.
Also what her brother said to you about vision you had. It was a bit strong then one in the Thorn Forest.
You unclip your cloth, as you take it off letting it drop down to the ground. You look up at the moon, some clouds where starting to gather, they where rain clouds. You heard the rumble of thunder getting closer.
In just a few minutes, the rain came down. It wasn't heavy rain, it was light rain. You didn't bother to get cover from it. You let the water run all along your body. Your hair became a mess over your face. But you didn't care.
You drop your head only to lift it up, when you heard a twig snap. You look to see who was there, there was no one. Could your mind just be playing tricks on you?
You couldn't tell, picking up your cloth you start to head back. Your head was down, that you didn't pay attention to when you bumped into someone.
When you did you felt their hands on the side of your face. As they used their thumbs to wipe away the rain drops by your eyes. Before you had time to look at them, they embrace you in a tight secure hug. Their body was muscular. You didn't know who it was, but all you knew was their heart beat was smooth and soft. You started to fall asleep.
They laid down with you, as you rested. Holding you tightly as they could. Keeping you dry from the rain, and what you where feeling inside at the moment.
