[Dreams]
_______________________
As all was quiet on New Thundera it wasn't at Cat's
Lair. Panthro was tired after a long watch and Lion-o had called a
meeting of all the Thundercats. Walking down the stone hallway of Cat's
Lair, Panthro met Tygra on his way. "So what's this council meeting all
about Tygra?". "I have no idea Panthor. Your guess is as good as
mine". The wlaked curiously to the Council Chambers. There they saw
all the Thundercats. The thunderkittens sat quietly while Cheetara was
questioning Bengali what it was all about. Pumyra stood to a corner
while Lynx-o sat as wise as any old Thundercat could be. "I am glad you
are all here. I have been looking through the Book of Omens and there
is a page here with pictures of all the Thundercats. It even has
pictures of Bengali, Pumyra and Lynx-o. I have been wondering what it
means". "Lynx-o could you tell us". "Well I was once told that the
Book of Omens always change for do the Thundercats always change. It
seems to mean something of value". "Well I think we should all get some
sleep" said the very tired Panthro. "We can interput it better when we
have all got a good nights rest". "Panthro is right Lion-o" responded
Pumyra. "Right Thundercats. We shall meet here at 0800". They all
headed to there rooms.
As all the Thundercats drifted to sleep Lion-o
examined the book even closer. As he got tired the he put the book
aside. Then just as his eyes began to drift the book gave off a bright
light. It was glowing and the book flew open with a gust of wind. It
turned directly to the page with all the Thundercats. Each picture
showed a different tale. What is this? Is this all the Thundercats
stories". The book responed with "These are the origins of all the
Thundercats. Each picture shows the tale of how they became
Thundercats". As Lion-o looked it over he listened to the tale of each
Thundercat.
Tygra grew up close to Cat's Lair on Thundera for the
Tygras were a valued raced. Their wisdom and mind powers were very
important to Thundera. He knew his parents as a child. When he turned
sixteen he trained with the wisest of the Tygra's. He learned the ways
of the Tygra. His father and mother soon had to let him go out on his
own. When he did he went to stay with the wise Tygra, Alfrat.hhSoon he
was trained to be the newest of the Thundercats. When he went to stay
at Cat's Lair he met a young girl named Catlani. She was beattful and
the daughter of Jaga. She was very athletis and graceful. Tygra
automatically fell in love with her. As he got further into his
training he met Cheetara. Back then she was a young shy cheetah. Tygra
was visited by Alfrat one stormy day. "Tygra it is time you knew about
the secrets of the Tygra's". "We are a wise people who learned the
powers of the mind. The first Tygra mastered the skill from a accient
telepath. All you have to do is concentrate with one part of the mind
and you can make illusions. Watch" as the Tygra formewd an image of an
older loking Tygra. "You will be the greatest of the Tygra's. You will
do things other Tygra's haven't. It will be your destiny". With that
Alfrat lefted Tygra to learn and try hard to creat illusions. Tygra
tried all night with no success. Finally Tygra jus got tired and shut
off the logic side of his brain. As he aws getting ready for bed he
wished Alfrat was ther and then an imaged formed right before Tygra. It
aws Alfrat. Later Tygra mastered the power and only used it when
necessay. When Tygra became a Thundercat noble he stayed at Cat's Lair.
He met Panthro,a technican who stayed at Cat's Lair for most of his
life, Wily Kit and Wily Kat, orphans who proved worthy of being
Thundercats and Lion-o, son of Claudus and heir to the throne of
Thundera. He didn't see Catlani and wonedred where she was. He was
once told that she left Thundera on her own. Tygra fought along side of
Jaga for a few years until the explosion of Thundera due to the Sword of
Plundarr.
Lion-o surprised at this looked to the next picture. It
was of Bengali. Bengali was raised in the village of Tigers. It was a
race of Siberians and other Tigers. He was raised by his father. His
mother died when Ratar-o attacked Thundera in search of the Treasure of
Thundera. His father was the greatest blacksmith on Thundera. He has
been raised from a family of great blacksmiths. At an early age Bengali
became his father's apprentice. His father was given the Hammer of
Thundera by Jaga himself. His father helped repair the Sword of Omens
and taught his son about all the alioes of the sword. He knew the
people of the village well. He admired Jaga for his strength and
greatness. He wanted to be a Thundercat all his lfe. When try outs
came to his village he was beat out by an older Siberian. He vowed one
day to become a Thundercat. When he got older he lost that dream. His
father showed him all the ways of being a Thundercat since his father
was once a Thundercat. He was injured in a battle against Grune and had
to stay at home. So Bengali went and trained everyday with his father.
He learned all about being a blacksmith. One fine day he met a young
puma by the name of Pumyra. She was trveling through the village a met
him. She was headed for Cat's Lair and just happened to stop in. They
talked and became good friends. She enjoyed his company and asked if
she would like to jion her on her trip to Cat's Lair he was thrilled.
Then a young Thundercat by the name of Lynx-o came in. He needed the
sword to be fixed. Thundera was under attack and Bengali and Pumyra
didn't take refuge to the shelter but styed and watch Bengali's father
repair the sword. Lynx-o noticed that they were not scared at all and
asked if they would like to train to be potential Thunderccats. They
knew they couldn't be real Thundercats but they knew the wise Lynx-o had
stayed at Cat's Lair and respected for the good peson he was. So
Bengali and Pumyra went and stayed with him. When Thundera was under
attack by mutants, Bengali and Pumyra jumped in the fight against Lynx-o
wishes. There they saw the great Panthro fight. Then when Thundera was
exploding their friend/mentor was severly burned in the eyes and
blinded. From then on Bengali has become a great Thundercat destined
for great things.
Lion-o amazed not knowing many things about Bengali.
The next picture was of Cheetara. When Cheetara was young she learned
of her ability to run at great speeds. She beat all the other kids n
races. She was raised by both of her parents. Her father was on the
Council of Cheetahs and mother was a well respected woman. Cheetara
loved her parents and got to visit many great things thanks to them.
When she was around the age of tweleve she started seeing flashes before
her eyes. She told her parents and they told her the story of the
Cheetahs. Cheetahs for as long as they could remember saw things others
didn't. They would have flashes of things from the past, present and
future. She was shocked to hear what kinds of things can be done with
her power. When she turned sixteen she won the trials of being a
Thundercat in her town. From there she went to train in Cat's Lair.
She met Jaga and study with him. She became very fast and knew the
limits of her powers. She ran up to 2 miles at top speed. She learn
acrobatics for a short time and learned how about the javalin. Jaga
noticed that she was very skilled with the pole vault. One night
Thundera was under the attack of the mutants and Cheetara went into
battle with the other Thundercats nobles including her best friend
Catar. He had been her friend ever snce she became a Thundercat noble.
They were not only best friends but also very close. They had a kind of
thing going on between them. The nobles weren't quite ready for action.
They had not trined enough to be ready for this kind of action. While
in battle another noble told her that Catar had betrayed them. She was
shocked but upset by this. She was very distracted by what she had
heard. Cheetara wasn't paying attention and a mutant fired a blast on
her. Catar jumped in the way to save her. He was hit by the blast.
Catar fell to the ground. She asked "Why did you save me? Why did you
do it". "Because Cheetara, I...love..you....". She was so angry that
her energy burst into pure fury as she fought the mutant. As the battle
ended Cheetara had defeated many of the mutants in a vendetta for Catar.
From then on she has had a hatred for mutants. She became one of the
strongest Thundercatas from there on. Sometimes she has dreams of Catar
and invisions him as the great Thundercat he could have been.
Lion-o just looked to the next picture hoping that it wasn't
as bad as Cheetara's. The picture was of Wily Kit and Wily Kat. When
the thunderkittens were young their parents were killed by mutants.
They were orphaned and grew up on their own. They were loners and both
decided they had to find somewhere to live. They ended up going to the
run down city of Grabosa. It was once a great city until Grune
destroyed it and its population. The mutants mainly ran the area now
and the kittens didn't know. They hudled in corners and stayed low
where other people stayed. Wily Kit and Kat didn't like this place but
they had no money to go anywhere else. One day they were caught playing
in the streets and the mutants held them captured. Jaga aws running a
raid with other Thundercats and freeded them. He took them to Cat's
Lair where they stayed and grew up most of their lives. When they saw
other Thundecats training they wanted to become one too. So one day at
a trial in a nearby town they competed and won the trial together. They
were equally matched. Jaga was mad at them for doing it but he also saw
how they proved themselves worthy of being a Thundercats. During
training they were always playing around but when it came time to be
serious they showed everyone they were tough. When Thundera was
exploding they felt they lost nothing because they had no real friends
on Thundera. At night they sometimes think about Thundera and wish that
they had their arents with them.
As Lion-o looked to the next picture he saw
Pumyra. Pumyra didn't live the best life. Her mother was killed by one
of Grune's soldiers when she was very little. Her father died shortly
after due to illness. She was raised by some nearby villagers. They
noticed that she was very fast and had a lot of agility. When the
Thundercats trials came to town she lost. She was not very happy. She
had trained hard but she guessed not hard enough. So she went to the
circus. They taught her all about acrobatics. She became one of the
greatest acrobats on Thundera. Many people came to see her. When she
turned sixteen she left the circus in search of a way to become a
Thundercat. She raced all the people from many towns and no one could
beat her. She soon came upon a town of Tigers. There she met a young
man by the name of Bengali. He was a blacksmith's apprentice. When the
muatants attacked Pumyra and Bengali both fought side by side and took
down as many mutants as possible. She was there when Lynx-o brought the
Sword of Omens to be fixed and jumped to the chance to train with him
and Bengali. She had always gotten along with Bengali. They did a lot
of things together. They became the best of friends and they sawLynx-o
as the older brother who was wise and knew things before them. Lynx-o
taught Bengali how to use his hammer well. Lynx-o taught Pumyra how to
use her speed and agility to great use. He gave her a sling and she
tied it around her waist. He taught her how to use it if she ever
needed it. When leaing Thundera Lynx-o was blinded and Bengali and
Pumyra helped him as much as he needed. She thinks back all the time to
Thundera and is so thankful for Lynx-o and Bengali.
The stories stopped there for Lion-o had already knew about
Lynx-o and Panthro. He was glad to know about the other Thundercats and
now knows that they are his family. He knows a true Lord of Thundercats
knows about all his friends and family and must be there to help. With
that Lion-o drifted to sleep with two words on his mind THUNDERCTAS HO! | |
