Mind of a Child -- Chapter 7
Hope you like it. :) Chapter 7 True to his word, Lion-O attempted to use the Sword to drive the creature back. The lion was more of a distraction for the giant lizard and it bought everyone time inside the Lair but it would only last as long as Lion-O could. While the Lord of the ThunderCats fought with the extremely oversized iguana, Tygra and Cheetara threw book around in the library. Nothing they had found came close to their opponent. Neither one wanted to disappoint Lion-O so they continued to look. “What if this thing isn’t in these books? Then what?” The cheetah asked. “I don’t know. Keep looking. I don’t know how long Lion-O can hold out.” Tygra replied as he threw the book of mystical creatures he was looking at aside. Cheetara let out a sigh and quickly continued on her quest to find something they could use. Over in the sick bay, Tyler tried to bring Sahara back to consciousness. He only had basic training in the medical expertise area and this was obviously not a basic situation. His mother had promised him she would teach him more as he got older but now he was wishing he’d pushed more. “Her pulse is normal, breathing normal, color normal. What else?” The pumiger desperately tried to remember. He paced around trying to think of anything to help the litah. He couldn’t let her down, especially when they needed all the help they could get. As he continued to struggle, an internal struggle was occurring inside Sahara’s mind. She stood in an empty black space with two doors. However both doors refused to open. Desperately, she tried to break through the barriers that were blocking her path. She wasn’t sure where the doors led but anything would be better than where she was. Focusing as hard as she could, the litah used all her special gifts and harnessed their energy. Tygra had once told her she used more of her brain than a normal cat. This could be a gift or a curse depending on if her body could handle it. So far things had worked out pretty well but this would be a big -*test*-('"). Using the energy she collected, she aimed it at the door on the left. A flash of bright light enveloped everything and she shielded her eyes. When she opened them again, she was met with quite the surprise. “What am I doing outside and so far off the ground?” The litah asked herself. Then she took a better look at her surroundings. “I’m inside the lizard! That’s not good!” She quickly headed back for the doorway but then stopped in her tracks. She couldn’t leave now. They still had no way to defeat the creature and a lot of people were going to get hurt if she could have done something but didn’t. So she closed her eyes and tried to search for what the lizard feared the most. Lion-O looked at the lizard, slightly confused. It had stopped moving and closed its eyes. Either it was trying to bring the fire it was spitting up to char him into little lion barbeque or he was finally winning. Not wanting to find out, the Lord of the ThunderCats fired a blast from the Sword of Omens. The blast broke Sahara’s concentration. She quickly used her control over the cold-blooded reptile and grabbed Lion-O off the ground with the lizard’s hand. He struggled to break free but she knew that he couldn’t get loose. Again she focused and tried to find the information she needed. Lion-O wiggled and tried to free his arms. The Sword lie on the ground some scary sixty feet away. Falling now would kill him. He was successful in getting his right arm free and he called to his faithful weapon. “Sword of Omens, come to my hand!” It did as the Lord of the ThunderCats commanded. He was about to use it when the lizard set him down and then headed away from the Lair. Confused, Lion-O just stood there and watched it go. To Be Continued…
