Life on Third Earth has defianality become more interesting for the Thundercats since the Planeteers have arrived on the scene. The Thundercats knew that their new friends were strangers to their world, not knowing everything there was to know about the planet's people and its danger. Some of the Planeteers seem to be adjusting better than others but they still had a long way to go. Linka and Wheeler were starting to understand more and more about the Thundercats technology since Wheeler was busy helping with the repairs to the Thundercat's machines and Linka was busy updating their system's software. Gi was also learning about the Thundercats equipment, she was sitting in the main control room learning all she can about their equipment.

"All of this technology is absolutely incredible, it is even light years ahead of anything Dr. Derek has shown us while we were visiting her pollution free Eco-Environment." Gi said while still being completely blown away.

"I'm glad that you are enjoying yourself with everything that you are seeing right now Gi, and thanks again for joining myself and Wilykat on monitor duty. It can get pretty boring after a while." Wilykit said.

Gi didn't know what she could to help out down in the hanger. Both Wheeler, Tygra and Panthro were completely emerged in repairing the vehicles while Lion-O and Cheetara were discussing their next move if they could go and assist the others. Gi, then decided to see what the Thunderkittens were up to.

See saw both of them looking very worried about something very important and decided to find out what got them so uptight. "Hey you two, where are you to in such a hurry?" Gi asked trying to find out.

"We're running late for monitor duty in the control room." Wilykat said answering Gi's question.

"Monitor duty? What's that?" Gi asked looking perplexed.

"We always have one or two Thundercats monitoring things in the contol room so that we would be ready to move out if there was a problem out there with any of our friends.." Wilykit explained.

"Wow, that sounds interesting."

"Not really, in fact sometimes it can get kind of boring after a while."

"Would you mind if I joined the two of you? I need something to do to take my mind off of worrying all of the time."

"Hey I don't mind, what about you Kit?" Wilykat asked

"That sounds like a good idea. If you're gonna be here for a while, then at least you should know how everything works around here.' Wilykit responded with a smile on her face.

"Thank you , both of you. This is just what I needed." Said Gi as they all headed for the control room and start their shift.

"Hey guys I'm picking up something coming up on the long range scanners." Gi said as the equipment detected on object.

"I'll bring it up on the main monitor screen." Wilykat said as he sat down at one of the chairs near the main screen.

"I don't believe it, it's the Thunderstrike there coming back." Wilykat said bringing up the image.

"Do you think they have found Ma-Ti and are bringing him back?" Gi asked.

"Only one way to find out." Wilykit said as she turned on the radio transmitter.

"Cat's Lair to Thunderstrike, Cat's Lair to Thunderstrike can you hear us?" Wilykit said as the monitor screen changed into the front of the main cockpit.

"Thunderstrike here Cat's Lair, is everything alright." Lynx-O asked

"Yes everything here is fine we were just wondering if you found Ma-Ti yet?"

"See for yourselves." Lynx-O said as ther image now changed to include Ma-Ti.

"MA-TI, MA-TI IS IT REALLY YOU!?" Gi said screaming into the radio after she saw his image.

"Yes it is Gi, I am glad to hear and see you again too my friend." Ma-Ti said

"Are you alright?"

"He needs to go to the medical lab for a quick medical scan." Lynx-O replied not meaning to interrupt the two.

"Why what has happened to you Ma-Ti?"

"We had to use some medicine on him that was designed only for use on Thundercats. We need to make sure that there are no lasting side-effects. "Lynx-O said explaining the situation.

"I'll go prep the medical bay Lynx-O" Wilykat said as he got up to get everything ready.

"How long before you get back?" Wilykit stated.

"We should be back in a few moments. We'll explain everything that happened then."

"Roger, Cat's lair out." Wilykit said as she closed the comm channel.

"I'm so happy that Ma-Ti is coming home safely." Gi said as she came over and gave Wilykit a hug.

"I'm happy that your happy Gi. Why don't you go back down to the hangar and tell the others the good news . I'll keep watch up here. "Wilykit said seeing the glee in Gi's eyes.

"You got it Wilykit and thanks for everything." Gi replied as she left the control room and headed back down to the hangar to let the others know of the good news.

The look in Gi's face couldn't be measured by anyone around her. She was on cloud 9 after seeing and hearing her friend's voice. Now all she had to do was tell the others. As she made her way back down to the hangar, she was so excited she didn't pay any attention to where she was going and she ran straight into Tygra.

"Ooooffmph. What's gotten you in sure a great mood Gi?" Tygra said while trying to recover from the impact. Tygra said as the others heard the impact at looked at the both of them.

"He's back.! HE'S BACK!" Gi started to say.

Whoa whoa there, who's back?" Tygra asked as Wheeler and the other came within range.

"IT'S MA-TI, THEY FOUND MA-TI AND ARE BRING HIM HOME!" Gi said almost going through the roof.

"They've found Ma-Ti, Haaa Yooo." Wheeler said as he grabbed Gi.

Gi was unprepared for what Wheeler did next. After he grabbed Gi he held her waist while picking her up and twirling her around.

"WHEELER, PUT ME DOWN RIGHT NOW, I'M STARTING TO GET DIZZY!" Gi shouted while the two of them started to laugh at the same time.

"Oh I'm sorry Gi, I guess I just got a little carried away."

"Is that you that just got carried away or was that me that just got carried away with you.?" Gi said while the other started to laugh.

"I'm glad to hear that they found your friend without any problems." Lion-O said

"Actually there might be a problem." Gi said remembering what Lynx-O told her.

"What happened Gi?' Wheeler now asked.

"I was told that they have to do a medical workup on Ma-Ti when they get back."

"Was it that serious.?" Cheetara now asking after seeing the worry in their friend's eyes.

"They told me that they had to inject medicine into him that wasn't made for people. Wilykat went to prepare the medical bay for Ma-Ti."

"What about Linka and Kwami Gi, are they both ok.?" Wheeler looking almost as if he has been kicked in the head.

"They are both fine Wheeler they are both OK." Gi replied hoping to calm him down.

"Thanks goodness." Wheeler said as he almost collapsed on the floor.

"WHEELER!" Gi screamed.

"I'm… I'm alright Gi." Wheeler said starting to get back up. "I guess I'm just a little more exhausted than I thought."

"I can undersatnd why my friend." Panthro said now coming over to check on Wheeler. "You put in a lot of time into helping me with these repairs plus worrying about your friends. Who wouldn't be exhausted after all that."

"That's true Panthro, but now that Ma-Ti's back we can start to work on getting our rings to work again." Wheeler said while looking at his ring.

"Well I think the first thing we should do is to see if your friend will be OK when the others get back." Tygra said. "Then I believe it would be best if all five of you got some rest."

"I know , but I want to make sure that my little buddy is fine and dandy."

"I also think that we should all share a meal together. This way we can get to know the five of you and what is so special about your rings." Tygra said knowing that none of the Planeteers have eaten anything since they arrived here.

"Dinner and talking, now that I can handle." Wheeler replied liking that idea.

"You like any idea that has to deal with food in it Wheeler." Gi replied giving his shoulder a slight tap.

"Guilty as charged Gi, guilty as charged." Wheeler said with a smile as Gi started to laugh.

"What is Linka going to do with you?"

"I don't know, want to ask her and find out?" Wheeler said.

"Very funny wheeler, very funny." Gi said as she gave him a slight punch on his chest.

The others saw the little squirmish and started to laugh.

" Ok you two save the rest of it for when your friends arrive." Panthro said. "By the way do you know where the kittens are?"

"Yes, Wilykat is preparing the medical bay and Wilykit is still in the control room." Gi replied.

After hearing that Panthro walked over to the Hangar's internal radio." Wilykak, Wilykit get down to the hangar. I have a job for you."

After a few moments both Thunderkittens showed up in the hangar and went straight for Panthro.

"Yea Panthro, what the job?" Wilykat asked looking ready to go.

"When do we get started" Wilykit also asked.

"Calm down you two and I'll tell you." He waited for both to relax and the continued. "We are going to have a little dinner celebration for the Planeteers and I need you to go to Robear Berbil village for some supplies."

"Sure thing Panthro, we always enjoy going to see them." Wilykit said in static about leaving to see their friends.

"Can I go with you two?" Gi asked. "I don't think I've ever meet a Berbil before?"

"That's right you haven't yet." Wheeler said and then started to continue." You haven't met the Snowman and Snowmeow either."

"Wheeler I think that is a great idea." Tygra said.

"What is?" Wheeler looked confused.

"What if we invited all of our friends that you have met today and have them join us tonight?" Lion-O offered.

"THAT IS A WONDERFUL IDEA LION-O!" Gi squelled. "After that she went to Lion-O and gave him a hug.

"Ok, calm down Gi." Lion-O said while laughing." She is quite the little ball of energy isn't she." Lion-O said while look at Wheeler.

"Tell me about it." Wheeler said as he saw Gi's head turn around at him and stick her tongue out at him.

Every body again started to laugh. "OK everyone that's enough." Lion-O said trying to stop. "Cheetara why don't you take the Hovercat and pickup Snowman and Snowmeow. Wilykat, Kit take Gi with you to the village ask if Ro-Ber-Bll and Ro-Ber-Bell would like to join us as well."

"And what about the elderly couple I met with the Unicorns?" Gi asked.

"The Unicorn Keepers lets see, Panthro how's the tank?"

"I think she should be up to the challenge. I'll go get them right away." Panthro said

"Alright Thundercats, lets get moving." Lion-O said as they shouted a single word. "HO!"

And with that all of the Thundercats left in the vehicles to pickup the Planeteers friends.

"Willa, Nayda would you care to join us as well?" Lion-O asked.

"We would be honored by your invitation Lion-O."

The Thunderkittens being the most agile of the group took their space boards and Gi out side the lair to get ready to head out to the Berbil village.

"How am I supposed to ride this thing." Gi said while looking at the boards.

She knows a cretin similarity between the space boards and surfboards back home. She always love surfing, even if it's on the shores of Hope Island. But she has never seen anything like these before in her life. The board were like the same size as surfboards but they were colored blue for Wilykit and Brown for Wilykat. They also built anti-grav generators which allows the kittens to traverse the ground in minutes, depending on their destination also the embelm of the Thundercats is always at the near top of the boards.

"Its easy Gi, just watch." Wilykat said as she watched him jump onboard and the whole thing started to rise.

"Now its my turn" Wilykit said as she did the same. " Come on Gi, its not so bad the first time." Wliykit said as she extended her hand to grab Gi's.

"If you say so Wilykit." Gi said as she accepted the hand and climber herself on the board.

"OK now just stand up and hold on tight." Wilykit said as Gi started to stand up.

"Just go slow Wilykit, I don't want to fall off." Gi said as she put both her arms around Wilykit's waist.

"Sure thing Gi,." Wilykit said while she winked over at Wilykat.

"AAAAAHHHHHHHHH" Gi screamed as the three of them were heading off for the berbil village.

Moments after the others left to pick up their guests, the Thunderstrike started to land right in the center of the courtyard. Wheeler was the first on the scene as well as Tygra and Lion-O.

"Welcome back Thundercats." Lion-O said as everyone started to climb out.

"Good to be back." Lynx-O replied

Wheeler walked over to his little buddy. Ma-Ti still was having a hard time absorbing everything that Linka and Kwami told him on the trip back. "Hey there little buddy, good to see you again." Wheeler said as he put his hand on Ma-Ti's shoulder.

"Hello my friend, it is good to see you again looking fine and ridiculous in that outfit." Ma-Ti replied trying not to laugh.

"I thought you explained everything to him Babe?" Wheeler asked wondering about the comment from Ma-Ti.

"Da, we did, but when then he started to laugh when we told him about our new wardrobe." Linka replied.

"Pumyra, why don't you escort Ma-Ti to the medical lab, I meet you there." Bengali said as he headed inside the lair.

"This is one weird planet Wheeler, I thought after what I have heard from Linka and Kwami, that I was about to loose my mind." Ma-Ti teased.

"No little buddy, this is real." Wheeler said trying not to make his buddy feel any more confused.

"Yankee, where are the others and Gi?" Linka asked

"They all went to pickup our friends that we met when we first arrived here for a dinner celebration."

"That is a good idea my friend, I'm sure that everyone would like to trade stories on their experiences." Kwami replied.

"Boy don't I know it. Anyway Cheetara went to pickup Snowman and Snowmeow, Panthro went to pickup the Unicorn keeps whoever they are and Gi went with the Thunderkittens on their space boards to the Berbil village to pick up Ro-Ber-Bill and Ro-Ber-Bell. as well as some supplies"

"Bosa moi, that is going be some guest list we are gonna have here." Linka replied.

"Yes my friends but at least we will be able to introduce our selves better to everyone at the same time." Kwami said with much delight.

"I just wish that Gaia and Captain Planet were here to enjoy it with us." Linka said being very sad.

"Don't worry about that for much longer babe." Wheeler said while walking up to her. " Tygra said that after we got some rest he would help us out with our ring situation."

"That sure would be nice, I miss using my ring." Linka stopped looking at her ring on her hand. "I sorta feel naked without its use."

"Babe, in my eyes you are never naked unless you want to be." Wheeler said while trying to joke around around.

"Yankee, aren't you ever serious about anything anymore." Linka said as she gave him a gentle punch on his arm. "What am I gonna do with you?"

"Funny, that is the same question that Gi asked before she left." Wheeler responded.

"All right you two, that's enough at that for now." Kwami said trying to break up the playful bunch. "Lets get Ma-Ti to the medical lab to make sure he is fine."

"This way guys I'll show you the way. "Pumyra said as she escorted the group into the lair and towards the medical bay.

"Do you think I will be OK from that medicine Pumyra?" Ma-Ti said looking a little concerned.

"I wouldn't be to worried about it Ma-Ti, although you might wanna start to check you face to make sure no whiskers are starting to show." Pumyra said trying to make a joke.

"Very funny Pumyra, very funny." Linka retorted.

"See what you have done now Yankee?" Linka said looking at Wheeler.

"What have I done this time babe?"

After that remark everyone started to laugh again as they all entered the Lair and headed towards the medical lab were Bengali was waiting to examine Ma-Ti.
