Linka was feeling more depressed than before. True she had gotten her best friend back but she was starting to feel sad. She remember what Wheeler said about him going with the Thundercats to try and save Kwami from the effects of the Cave Of Time, but she still had a shaky feeling that something was going wrong. She pushed that thought to end of her mind as she showed up at Gi's door. She knocked to see if Gi was alright to see her.
"Come in, the door's unlocked." Gi voice came from the other side.
As the door opened Linka started to walk into and room and saw Gi wearing a very attractive looking outfit.
When Gi first entered the room she didn't know what to expect for being a guest. She was then taken for a loop, she loved the bed, the room's decorations even the grate style from the top of her windows. She immediately saw the outfit that the kittens had laied out in her room to change into after she had taken her shower. The dress was almost the same style as Linka's but the hem line was a little shorter. She loved the way it felt against her skin. Gi thought that she was in heaven wearing such a beautiful outfit. She didn't even mind the Thundercat logo on the dress. She was glad that the kittens weren't there when she tried it on, otherwise she might have said something wrong about it and she didn't want to disrespect her hosts.
Finally wearing the dress in all its glamor, Gi was starting to enjoy her reflection in the mirror when she heard someone knock on the door.
"Come in, the Door's unlocked." Gi said as she twirled around to see Linka walking into her room. "Oh..er.. Hi Linga." The young Asian said while she started to blush.
"How are you feeling Gi?" Linka asked her friend seeing that she is in much better spirits then before.
"Much better Linka." She replied looking more refreshed. "I just can't get over what has happened to us in the past few hours."
"Da, I know." Linka started to agree with her friend.
"So tell me about these Thundercats, are any of them single?" Gi started to wonder thinking about how she first met Bengali and gave him a great big hug for saving her life and telling her that Wheeler and Linka were safe.
"I" she paused for a moment not knowing the answer to her question." I don't know." She finished, hoping Gi would change the subject.
"Ok, now on to other news." Gi said as she was changing the subject. "Can you tell me what happened to you and Wheeler?
"Are you sure you want to know GI? You might not like to hear what happened to us." Linka said not really sure if wants to explain everything to glittering friend.
"Come on Linka were best friends, we share everything.." Gi said hoping Linka will change her mind.
"OK Gi OK, I will tell you what happened to us but don't be upset with me after you find out. Deal?"
"Deal Linka, now start spilling." Gi said as Linka started to share her experiences with herself and Wheeler.
"He actually kissed you on the mountain?" Gi squealed when Linka got to that part.
"It was to keep me warm Gi." Linka said while trying to avoid blushing.
"Yea right." She said not believing Link'a's reason. "What else happened, this is getting really good." Gi said being excited.
She has always have known how much Linka really loved Wheeler but was unable to tell him face to face. Then she almost hit the roof and the next part.
"WHEELER SAID THAT YOU WERE HIS GIRLFRIEND!?" Now that really made Gi's day. Having to hear Linka say those words made Gi fell more happy for her two friends then she ever thought possible.
"Would you just calm down Gi." Linka said trying to calm her friend down before the entire building heard them.
"Sorry Linka, I just couldn't help myself." Gi said as Linka took a pillow from Gi's bed and whacked her with it.
Both girls started to laugh and have a good time, they need to blow of some steam after everything.
"OK now your turn Gi, tell me what happened to you." Linka said hoping Gi's story would be better.
Gi started to explain her experiences since being separated from the others. She told Linka about the beach she landed on, the Ocean, but she was surprised by Linka's expression on her face when she got to the part about the Unicorns.
"You actually met and touched real Unicorns?" Linka said with wonder.
"Yea is was the most amazing thing that happened to me since becoming a Planeteer." Gi said as she continued.
She told Linka about the Unicorn Keepers and about the Unicorn moving its head up and down Gi's face and neck. That got a laugh from both of them, then she started to tell her about Hammerhand and his team of Berserker Pirates. Linka couldn't believe that Gi was held prisoner without the use of her ring, or that Hammerhand had tied up her legs and threw her overboard and into the sea.
"Bosa moi, Gi" Linka said after Gi got to that part.
"I didn't know." Linka said a tear was about to show.
"It's ok Linka Bengali saved me." She said to try and stop Linka from crying.
"He did?" Linka asked as Gi finished the rest of her story. "I am just glad that you are safe Gi. Don't you ever worry me like that again." Linka said after hearing the rest.
"I'll try not to make you worry Linka." Gi said. Then Linka hit her with the pillow again.
"What was that for?" Gi asked looking confused.
"I know you Gi are almost as immature as Yankee"She said. "And I don't think if I can handle both of you right now."
Gi decided that turnabout is fair play so she grabbed the other pillow from her bed and gave Linka a whack.
"Bosa moi Gi, now you are gonna get it." Linka said after Gi's pillow impact brought a smile to her face.
Both girls got up at started hitting each other with the pillows so hard that after a moment or two the pillows exploded in each others hands and covering them both with all of the feathers. Both girls were so surprised by what they have done that they both fell down right on to bed and started to laugh out loud.
"I think we might be in trouble with our hosts for this mess." Gi said while she tried to stop laughing while she and Linka surveyed the mess they made.
Linka rolling her eyes at Gi nodded. "Da, come on, let's try to clean up this mess before someone sees it." Just then another knock was at the door. "Come in ." Gi said hoping it was one of their Planeteer friends.
To their surprise it was Snarf and Wilykit looking at the two girls while they were trying to clean up the mess. "Brrrrr. What happened in here?' Snarf said looking surprised at the mess.
"Sorry for the mess Snarf." Linka said while trying to get every last feather.
" I leave the two of you alone for a few minutes and this is what I come back to.?" Snarf said being really annoyed at the Planeteers.
"Take it easy Snarf." Wilykit interjected, trying to calm the nursemaid down.
"Yes, we are sorry for the mess." Gi said stopping so that she could address Snarf.
"We just got carried away, telling both our stories, then one thing led to another and then this." Gi said as she gestured the mess of feathers from both pillows.
"I guess it is alright, Wilykit get two more Pillows. I'll help clean up this mess." Snarf said as Wilykit left to get two more pillows.
"We're really sorry about all of this Snarf." Linka said hoping there is no bad blood between them.
"Snarf snarf snarf.. It's OK I mean no real harm was done, and besides I think that maybe the two of you needed to get that out of your systems anyway. Snarf said while gathering up the rest of the feathers and putting them into the busted pillowcase.
"Snarf you're the best." Gi said as she kneeled down to Snarf, giving him a hug and then a smell peck on his furry check.
Snarf started to blush and loose sight with reality but then shook his head and came back to his senses. As Gi was getting back up Wilykit returned with two more pillows and a message for the Planeteers.
"I just saw Cheetara landing right in front of the lair." She said after she saw the Thuinderclaw through one of the other open windows within the lair.
Linka and Gi were both happy, cause they knew that if the Thunderclaw came back then the others wouldn't be far behind. "Thanks Wilykit, we're gonna go meet her outside right away. Gi said as both she and Linka left her room and headed out to meet Cheetara.
Cheetara has just finished her landing procedures when she look up and saw that Linka and Gi were coming down to greet her. The expression on the female Thundercat wasn't what the other two were hoping to see. Cheetara started to walk towards them to explain what happened.
"What happen to Wheeler, is everything alright Cheetara." Linka asked with worry. Linka thought that she might have to go through her threat if Wheeler wasn't careful.
"Well yes and no." Cheetara started to say until Linka broke out in tears. "Linka, Wheeler is fine nothing happened to him. It was your other friend. Something bad has happened." Cheetara stated hoping not to explain all of the bad news.
Gi was beside herself. "Other friend? Who is she talking about Linka?" Gi started to panic.
Then Linka just told her. "Its Kwami, Wheeler and the others went after Kwami."
"OH NO!" Gi said before she almost fell down.
Cheetara luckily caught her and helped to pick her up. Gi looking a little less in shock wanted to know what happened. After a brief moment Cheetara, explained what happen to Kwami. She told the two of them how he was tricked into going into the cave, and that she couldn't get him out right away because of a laser blast from Dr. Demented's laser blaster disabled her super speed.
"Were you able to get him out in time?" Linka asked while holding on to Gi.
"Lion-O was able restore my speed and I was able to get Kwami out, unfortunately he was already effected by the cave.
"So what do we do now?" Gi almost started to shout after the explanation.
Cheetara took Gi's shoulder and looked into the young Asian's brown colored eyes. "My friends and your friend Wheeler are already heading for the Geiser of life to reverse the effects of the cave. Kwami will be just fine." She said hoping it will calm Gi down.
"But how do you know it will work" Linka asked a little confused.
"I know because one of us went through the same thing. Trust me Kwami will be just fine. "Cheetara said know that piece of news will calm everyone down.
After a brief moment between all three of the girls, the radio on board the Thunderclaw started to come alive. Like a flash of lighting all three ladies were at the Thunderstrike hope for good news.
"Thundertank to Cheetara, can you read me." In was Panthro's voice coming over the radio.
"Cheetara here Panthro, is everything alright." She asked with concern.
"Everything is good The gesier did it's job and Kwami is back to his normal age."
With that bit of news both of the Planeteers were jumping up and down and cheering. Then Gi came over to Cheetara.
"May I use the radio Cheetara?" Gi asked hoping that it would ok.
"Go right ahead Gi, I think you need this more right now anyway." Cheetara said as she handed the radio to Gi.
"Thundertank, this Is Gi." She started to say. "May I speak with Kwami?"
A moment went by until she a a familiar voice on the radio. "Hello my friend it is good to hear from you." Kwami voice said over the radio.
"Kwami, I've never been so glad to hear your voice." Gi started to squeal into the radio. "Is everything alright?"
"Yes my friend, although we did have a run in with Nukem by the geiser." Kwami said sounding rather flushed.
"Everyone alright?" Gi said with a little worry.
"Everything is fine I'll explain everything when Wheeler and I get back. Lion-O needs to tell Cheetara something so I will give the radio back to him." And with that the voice changed to Lion-O.
"Cheetara, have the Thunderkittens prepare another room, then if the girls are up to it, take the Thunderstrike and pickup Lynx-O and bring him from the Tower Of Omens back to Cat's Lair. He was finally able to locate the last signal. Its in the forbidden zone."
"Ma-Ti. They have found Ma-Ti." Gi said as they were listening in.
"Ok Lion-O We'll head out right away." Cheetara said as the radio shut down.
"So, are you both ready to go in the Thunderstrike and get Lynx-O? Cheetara questioned?
"We sure are, when do we leave." Linka asked hoping the answer will come quick.
"We'll leave as so as I inform the kittens. In the meantime wait over by the Thunderstrike." Cheetara said as she ran into the Lair to inform the kittens of the situation.
"Wow, she's fast." Gi said as she saw Cheetara move at super speed into the Lair and back over at the Thunderstrike.
"OK ladies, climb aboard." Cheetara said as the two Planeteers climbed into the vehicle and lifted off to the Tower Of Omens to pick up Lynx-O.
