As the mid-day sun started to appear over Third Earth, the Thundercats as well as their allies were just coming out of the forest and into the clearing near their home. As they all approached the battlefield, they saw that Kwami, Gi and Linka as well as their home was still frozen in stone.

"By Jaga." Lion-O started to say while witnessing what has happened. "The Eco-Villain's Warbot did all this?"

"It would appear so." Tygra stated."

"Lion-O, can the Eye of Thundera revive everyone?" Panthro asked with much concern in his tone.

"I'm not sure Panthro." Lion-O started to say as he started to pull the sword with his right hand out of his Claw shield from his right leg. "But I think we are about to find out."

"Be careful Lion-O-San, remember you are still recovering from your ordeal." Hachiman stated in an honest tone.

"I will Hachiman." Lion-O replied as he started to raise the sword towards his face. After a moment the Cat's eye started to change color and Lion-O started to shout his words. "THUNDER…. THUNDER…. THUNDER…. THUNDERCATS…. HO!" He shouted as the sword started to respond in kind.

As Lion-O started to shout his command words the Sword of Omens once again started to change from a short dagger form to its long sword form. A moment later the Cat's Eye inside the sword also started to change into the symbol of the Thundercats. A moment after that the red beam and Thundercat symbol started to emit form the sword and into the deep blue sky. As the signal hit the sky the symbol started to roar causing the insignias on Kwami, Linka and Gi's clothing to glow. A moment later the signal up in the sky started to emit a powerful red beam down on the Planeteers and on the stone form of the Cat's Lair.

As the red beam continued to envelope the Planeteers and the Cat's Lair, the Eye of Thundera started to emit a white energy beam from the signal in the sky and started to impact everyone. As the energy beam continued to impact, the stone statues of the Planeteers and well as the lair itself start to show white cracks. A moment later all of the statues started to revert back into flesh and the lair started to return to its former form.

As the beam started to wear off, the Planeteers all started to fall to their knees after being released from their stone prison. After a moment the signal disappeared back into the sword and it changed back into it's dagger form. Once the sword was secured the Thundercats and their allies went over to see if the Planeteers were alright before heading back towards the lair.

"Kwami, are you OK?" Lion-O asked with much concern for the Planeteer.

"I think so." Kwami started to say. "What happened to us?"

"What was the last thing you remember?"

"We were fighting that giant robot and it fired a strange beam at us and then, nothing."

"The Warbot turned you all and our home into stone."

"Voshamoy. " Linka started to say. "What happened to everyone else?"

"Lion-O, myself, Tygra and Panthro were rendered powerless and left for dead after the attack my dear." Lynx-O started to say as all of the Thundercats started to help the Planeteers back to their feet.

"What happened to Wheeler? Did he get here in time?" Gi asked with much concern.

"Wheeler-San did show up my dear, but after seeing what had happened to everyone, he fell into a state of deep sadness." Hachiman stated with an honest and saddened tone in his voice.

"So I wasn't seeing things from before." Linka stated in response.

"Linka?" Gi replied.

"I thought that Wheeler was right in front of me and he told me that he was sorry and that he loves me."

"It was true Linka." Mandora started to say. "Wheeler had a ring from a Unicorn and it was able to release you from the stone prison but only for a moment."

"Then what happened?" Kwami asked.

"Afterwards, he was captured by Mumm-Ra's newest allies." Char replied.

"Who?" Gi asked.

"Two people named Zarm and Pollution." Quick-Pick stated. "I thought they had weird names."

"Zarm and Captain Pollution, we have to rescue Wheeler right now." Linka started to say as she started to get angry. "I finally get back my feelings for Wheeler and remember everything and now that mummy has captured him. We must get him back."

"We will Linka but first we have to come up with a plan." Kwami stated in his most calm tone.

"No, we have to rescue him now." Gi started to say as she started to get angry. "Wheeler risked his life to help us and now we aren't going to do the same."

"Gi, Linka you both must calm down. Getting angry won't help Wheeler unless we can deal with Mumm-Ra." Kwami stated hoping to calm both girls down.

"WE HAVE TO SAVE HIM NOW!" They both yelled.

"Linka, Gi you must understand something." Hachiman started to say. "If we go now while you are both angry, then you could hurt Wheeler in the process. Now answer me this, would you ever go up against a foe without a proper plan?"

"Hachiman's right." Kwami started to say. "We would never go up against a Eco-Villain without a plan that would save the environment or anyone else."

"But Wheeler?" Gi stated with sadness in her tone.

"We will rescue him." Kwami stated while placing his right hand on Gi's left shoulder. "But first we need to make sure that everyone else is alright."

"Your right Kwami." Gi started to say. "I'm sorry Hachiman."

"It is no problem my dear. I am worried about your friend as well." Hachiman stated.

"But I think we have a bigger problem to deal with." Mandora added.

"What problem?" Linka asked with wonder.

"We'll tell you about it inside the lair."

"Alright and thanks for helping us calm down Hachiman, Kwami." Linka replied.

"It is no problem my friend." Kwami replied in an honest tone.

"If everyone is OK now, we really should check on everyone else inside the lair." Lion-O stated as they all started to head towards the lair.

As they were walking towards the Thundercats home, Gi had Linka join her at the back of the group for a quick discussion.

"Linka." Gi started to say.

"What is it Gi?" Linka replied

"There is something that I wanted to tell you for a while now, but I didn't know how."

"What is it?"

"I know that you and Wheeler are married but."

"It is OK Gi, you can tell me."

"Linka, I am in love with Wheeler."

"I had a feeling that was the case."

"You knew? For how long?"

"After what happened with Mr. Keen and a few times when we first became Planeteers. I've saw the way you looked at Wheeler." Linka stated as Gi started to blush.

"Oh Linka." Gi started to say in her most honest tone. "Please don't hate me for feeling this way."

"Hate you, Gi I am glad that you told me."

"You are?" Gi asked as they started to get closer to the lair.

"Da. I am glad that you told me. Wheeler can be a bit annoying at times but his heart is always in the right place."

"On that we agree."

"But we should discuss this some more in private."

"Maybe in my room afterwards."

"Da." Linka replied as they all started to enter the lair.

As everyone entered the lair, Everyone started to head towards the main control room while Snarf and the Thunderkittens was still taking care of the two guests in the main conference room. As they all approached the main control room, Lion-O was worried about how the others are doing after they were all trapped in stone for two days. As the finally approached the control room, the metal door started to open up.

As the door opened, Lion-O was still seeing Cheetara lying on the floor while Nadya, Leia and Gaia were helping her. As the group approached them something started to trigger Cheetara's sixth sense again as well as effecting Gaia.

"Gaia!" All of the Planeteers yelled as she started to feel strange.

"Are you alright?" Ma-Ti asked while trying to help Cheetara as well.

"I'm not sure. It is as if my connection to one of you is weaker for some reason."

"Weaker? But how?" Kwami asked as he and Gi started to help Gaia back to her feet.

"I'm not sure. Ever since you were able to re-connect with your rings I've felt a strange power but for some reason, that power is now weaker."

"It could be because Wheeler has been captured by Mumm-Ra." Lion-O stated while trying not to worry everyone.

"If Mumm-Ra has captured Wheeler, then we need to rescue him right away." Ma-Ti stated with much determination in his tone.

"We will rescue him but I'm afraid that we have a bigger problem to deal with." Lynx-O stated.

"What is it?" Pumyra asked with wonder.

"We'll fill everyone in inside the conference room." Lion-O started to say as he started to help Cheetara up on her feet. "You alright Cheetara? "

"A little weak from my sixth sense, but otherwise OK." Cheetara stated in a weakened tone.

"Bengali, please take Cheetara to the medical bay." Lion-O started to say. "The rest of us will head towards the conference room and we will fill everyone in on what happened."

"No. I feel well enough to go with you." Cheetara started to say in her most determined tone.

"Everyone please head towards the conference room. Bengali, please wait outside, Cheetara and I need to be alone for a moment." Lion-O asked in his most understanding tone.

"Of course Lion-O." Bengali replied as they all started to leave the control room.

After all of the Thundercats, The Planeteers and their friends have left the control room, Lion-O was about to talk to Cheetara when she beat him to the punch.

"Lion-O, what do you think you are you doing?" Cheetara started to say. "I told you that I feel fine."

"I know that Cheetara but you once told me that your sixth sense is so powerful that it could destroy you. I don't want that to happen. Ever since that kiss in the hallway from before I just don't want anything bad to happen to you. I care too much about you, and I don't want to loose you."

"Lion-O." Cheetara stated after hearing Lion-O's confession.

"If I am being honest, I love you Cheetara, I have for a while now and I want to spend the rest of my life with you."

After Lion-O's next confession of love Cheetara was almost speechless.

"Lion-O I love you too, and I would be honored to spend the rest of my life with you, but why are you babying me?"

"It is not that at all." He started to say after taking in a deep breath. "I know that as Lord of the Thundercats I have to be a leader, but I also have to keep my feelings away for someone I love and right now I am being conflicted. I want you to get better and I also need you at my side but I also want you to stay safe and-" Lion-O started to say until he was interrupted by Cheetara's passionate kiss.

"Lion-O." Cheetara started to say after releasing her lips from his. "I understand why you feel this way. All of this is new to you and I will help you through everything."

"Then would you please go with Bengali, at least just so that he can run a few tests on you."

"Fine, you win." Cheetara started to say. "I'll go with Bengali but under one condition."

"Name it."

"That after the meeting you come to me and tell me everything."

"I will. You have my word." Lion-O replied as Cheetara gave him another passionate kiss.

After their kiss, Lion-O started to escort Cheetara out of the main control room and towards Bengali waiting patiently outside is the hallway.

"Is everything alright?" Bengali asked while seeing Lion-O and Cheetara starting to hold hands together.

"Everything is fine Bengali." Lion-O started to say. "Would you please escort Cheetara to the medical bay. I will join you both afterwards."

"Sure thing Lion-O." Bengali replied as Cheetara released her right hand from Lion-O's left hand before going with the light blue Thundercat.

As Cheetara and Bengali started to head towards the medical bay, Lion-O started to walk towards the conference room. As he walked down the long hallway, his thoughts were still conflicting about everything that had happened to them. As he approached the main conference room door, he wasn't sure if they had started the meeting already without him. After a moment of being hesitant he opened the door and entered the room.

As Lion-O entered the room he started to see the Thundercats on one side of the circle table, The Planeteers on the other side and their friends at another side. As he finished entering the room, the Lord of the Thundercats headed towards the empty chair at the head of the table. Once there, everyone sat down to begin the meeting.

"Now before we start the meeting, is there anything we need to discuss?" Lion-O asked in his most honest tone.

"Snarf Snarf. Nothing that I know of." Snarf stated.

"We still need to work on those medical reports from our village. "The Bulkin stated.

"Don't worry, we'll get started on them as soon as the meeting is completed." Tygra started to say. "I'm sorry we couldn't take care of it sooner."

"It is OK, I know that you were all busy." The Bulkin replied.

"I'm just glad that we are all back to normal." The Wolo stated.

"Same here." Wilykit started to say. "I didn't like being turned into a statue."

"No one did sis." Wilykat added.

"Just be glad that our friends was able to fix the sword." Lion-O replied.

"Not completely fixed Lion-O." Mandora stated in her most determined tone.

"What do you mean?" Tygra replied.

"A small shard of the sword still remains, but it is in Linka's hair." Hachiman added as they all started to look at Linka.

"Linka?" Kwami asked with some wonder.

"If there is a shard in my hair, I've hadn't noticed it." Linka replied as she started to check her short blonde hair.

As Linka started to check her hair, a small shard of the sword started to come out and land on the conference table.

"The shard was in your hair before you changed into stone." Quick-Pick started to say. "I only noticed it afterwards but I couldn't retrieve it without hurting you in the process."

"You made the right call Quick-Pick," Lion-O replied as he started to turn his gaze towards Linka. "Why don't you hold onto that piece for a while."

"Are you sure Lion-O?" Ma-Ti asked with a little concern in his tone.

"I'm sure. Besides it may come in handy for all of you." Lion-O replied.

"Thank you Lion-O." Linka added as she placed the shard in her jacket vest upper right pocket.

"Now that everything is out in the open, we can begin the meeting and fully disclose what happened after everyone else were all turned to stone." Lion-O stated as the meeting finally started.

As Lion-O began the meeting inside the Cat's Lair, back at his black Pyramid, Mumm-Ra and his allies in evil were watching everything that was happening. As he continued to watch the mummy's anger was so intense that he completely shattered the image being shown inside the black cauldron.

"Blast it." Mumm-Ra started to say. "Those Thundercats and their friends are all still alive and now they are getting ready to find a way of rescuing their friend."

"But we know that is impossible." Zarm started to say as Mumm-Ra's sarcophagus started to open to reveal Wheeler inside.

"How do you feel my warrior?" Mumm-Ra asked as he started to shift his gaze towards his newest ally in evil.

"I feel invincible. Like I can take on the Thundercats and the Planeteers all by myself." Wheeler replied with glowing red eyes.

"Excellent." Mumm-Ra started to say. "But before you leave I have a gift for you."

"Another gift? Mighty Mumm-Ra, you have given me so much already."

"I know but this is a special gift." The mummy stated as he fired a directed energy beam at Wheeler's ring. "There. I've unlocked your ring's full power, now you can finally destroy those who took your family."

"Yes. I will make them pay." Wheeler replied as he started to put the golden armor back on. "Master Mumm-Ra I would like to take Pollution and Zarm with me for backup support."

"What for?" Mumm-Ra asked with some concern as Zarm and Pollution had a look of confusion on their faces.

"Don't misunderstand me my master, I want to use these two for a distraction and then crush them when they least expect it."

"I see." Mumm-Ra started to say with a glimmer of evil on his face. "An excellent plan and you two had better not fail me." The mummy added as he started to shift his gaze to Pollution and Zarm.

"Hold it right there dude." Pollution started to say. "We didn't fail you. So don't start to blame us for anything."

"Quiet you fool." Zarm started to say. "Don't worry Mumm-Ra. We won't fail you and we will help your newest ally destroy our enemies."

"That is what I like to hear." The mummy stated as he started to raise both of his arms towards his allies." Now go." He added as he blasted them with energy waves to make them all disappear.

Unaware of what was happening in Mumm-Ra's dark Pyramid, the Thundercat's allies had just finished filling in everyone on what happened when everyone else was turned to stone. A moment afterwards, the Thundercats finally filled everyone in on what happened at Willa's home.

"My mother, is she alright?" Leia asked with concern.

"Willa is just fine Leia." Tygra replied.

"We told Willa that we would bring you and Nayda back to her afterwards." Lynx-O added.

"That's good to hear. I was starting to worry about Willa." Nayda started to say. "But I am also concerned about the damage done to our home by that strange golden warrior."

"I'm concerned about that as well my dear." Lynx-O started to say. "I sense that there is something familiar about that warrior, but I don't know why."

"Well whoever this warrior is, we have to stop him from destroying anymore of this planet." Gi started to say. "We can't let what happened to the Warrior Maiden's home happen anywhere else."

"And we won't Gi." Kwami started to respond. "But we also have to rescue Wheeler and take care of Zarm, Pollution, Mumm-Ra not to mention Blight, Nukem and Sludge."

"I have a score to settle with Sludge." Gi started to say. "I still owe him for what happened in the Bulkin village."

"Calm down Gi." The Bulkin started to say. "We understand that we were all tricked and we all did apologize afterwards. Not to mention you saved our homes, and we are all forever grateful for that."

" I know, it is just that Sludge can be so tricky."

"Well once we repair the lair and our equipment, then we can go after Wheeler." Tygra started to say. "How long do you think it would take Panthro?"

"If we all work together and if we hurry about 2 hours max." Panthro stated.

"2 hours! What if Wheeler doesn't have 2 hours?!" Linka started to yell.

"Linka's right, we have to move now and quickly." Gi added.

"Listen you two, we know how much Wheeler is important to your team but if we go now then Mumm-Ra could crush us." Lynx-O stated in a calm tone.

"Wheeler is one of us, we have to try." Gi stated in an upset tone.

"Gi please, this is not helping." Linka started to say in order to try and calm Gi down. "We will rescue Wheeler but we have to be smart about-"

"YOU BE SMART! I CARE ABOUT WHEELER AND I DON'T CARE IF I AM ALONE! I AM GOING TO SAVE HIM WITH OR WITHOUT ANYONE!" Gi yelled as she started to get up from her chair.

"Gi listen to me." Kwami started to say. "We all care about Wheeler but the Thundercats and Linka are correct. Unless we can get everything repaired and operational then we won't be able to-" Kwami stated until a rumbling sound stopped everyone.

"Lion-O, what's going on?" Panthro asked as parts of the ceiling continued to fall down.

"I'll find out, but everyone better take cover and fast." Lion-O replied as he started to draw his sword from his Clawshield while everyone started to find some cover. "Sword of Omens, give me sight beyond sight." He added as the sword started to respond.

As Lion-O stated his command, the sword started to change it's crossbars into eye sockets so that Lion-O can look through them. As Lion-O started to look, the sword's eye started to glow as Lion-O started to see what was happening outside the lair. As Lion-O started to look into the sword, he started to see an image of Zarm and Pollution attacking the front of the lair.

"Lion-O, what is going on?" Kwami asked with much concern.

"It's Zarm and Pollution. There attacking the lair." Lion-O replied.

"Then we have to stop them." Linka added.

"I agree. We must stop them." Ma-Ti added.

"It maybe a trap my Planeteers." Gaia started to say. "Without Wheeler we can't call Captain Planet."

"I might be able to help with that Gaia." Lion-O replied as he started to get to his feet. "Everyone let's stop those two from attacking our home. Mandora, I want you and everyone else to stay inside just in case it is a trap. Thundercats and Planeteers let's show those two a real welcome." Lion-O added.

"HO!" Everyone yelled as they all started to leave the conference room.

"Snarf Snarf. Be careful everyone." Snarf stated as they all started to leave the room.

As the Thundercats and the Planeteers started to leave the conference room, outside the lair both Zarm and Pollution continued their attacks on the damaged home of the Thundercats.

"Check this out dude." Pollution stated as he fired an energy beam from his right hand, impacting the upper section of the lair.

"Not bad, but check this out." Zarm replied as he started to blast the lair with two energy beams from both of his hands, impacting the lower section near one of the claws.

"Dude, are we having a competition to see who gets to destroy more of the lair? If so then I am winning." Pollution stated as he started to fire rapid blasts of energy from both hands and impacting the lair on multiple locations.

"Take it easy you fool. Remember we just need to get their attention and then the fun really begins."

"Hey dude, calm down. We can still have some fun before the real show begins. I mean it's not everyday that we see the destruction of those Eco-brats and those annoying Thundercats. Besides, I'm starting to get a little weak. All of this clean air is starting to effect me. I need pollution to recover my power."

"Then don't use up so much energy and then maybe you can survive long enough for Mumm-Ra to restore you for a bit."

"Fine dude." Pollution started to say as there was activity coming from the lair.

As Pollution and Zarm were continuing to blast the Thundercat's home, the Thundercats and the Planeteers exited the lair and started to confront their enemies.

"Hold it right there." Tygra stated as Zarm and Pollution ceased their attacks.

"Well well well, what do we have here." Zarm started to say as himself and Pollution started to shift their gaze towards their new targets. "I think we have some new targets to destroy Pollution."

"So dude, which one do we destroy first." Pollution added as all of the Thundercats and the Planeteers were in eye shot.

"You are not going to destroy anything." Lion-O stated as he started to remove his sword from his Claw Shield.

"You two have done enough already." Kwami stated as the rest of the team joined them.

"Are you kidding, we've only just begun." Zarm stated as he and Pollution started to raise both their hands at both the Planeteers and Thundercats. "Now Pollution." Zarm added as they both started to shoot energy beams at the group.

"Planeteers, look out!" Lion-O stated as he started to deflect some of the energy blasts with his sword.

As Lion-O continued to try and deflect the energy blasts, the other Thundercats and the Planeteers started to try and evade the incoming beams. As the Planeteers continued to evade, both Kwami and Linka were in a position to retaliate.

"Ready Linka?" Kwami asked with some concern while still trying to evade energy beams.

"Ready Kwami." Linka replied.

"EARTH!" Kwami shouted as green energy beams started to emit from his ring and towards the ground where Pollution and Zarm were standing on.

As the green energy beams started to impact the ground, both Zarm and Pollution started to loose their balance until they both started to hover a bit off the ground.

"Come on now." Zarm started to say. "Surly you can do better than that."

"WIND!" Linka shouted as a white pinwheel of energy started to emit from her ring and then under both Zarm and Pollution.

As the white pinwheel energy started to form under the two Eco-Villains it started to change into a tornado and then started to spin the two around.

"Where is Wheeler?!" Linka shouted as the tornado continued to spin the two villains around.

"Wouldn't you like to know." Zarm replied as a wave of pure fire started to approach the group from the far left.

"LINKA, KWAMI! LOOK OUT!" Gi yelled as the wave of fire continued to get closer.

As soon as they both heard Gi's warning, both Kwami and Linka got out of the way just missing the wave of fire coming at both of them. After avoiding the attack both of the Planeteers started to get back to their feet as a new enemy started to approach the group.

"Who are you?" Kwami asked as he and Linka started to see the golden armored warrior approach them.

"I am your destruction." The warrior replied as he started to grab something from behind his back.

As the Planeteers watched, the golden warrior started to remove a sword hilt from behind his back which then started to emerge two giant dagger type blades.

"Now Planeteers, my swords will feel the touch of your skins as I repay you for killing my family." The warrior stated as he started to twirl the sword in a circular motion. A moment later a fire cyclone started to emerge and headed straight towards the Planeteers.

"I've got this guys." Gi stated as she started to aim her ring. "WATER!" She shouted as a blue aura started to appear in front of her ring.

A moment after Gi's command, water from underneath the Thundercat's bridge started to have the same blue aura above it. A moment afterwards the water started to rise up from under the bridge and extinguish the flaming vortex.

"Nice trick Planeteer." The warrior started to say. "But I have more tricks up my sleeve." He added as he started to aim his ring at Gi. "Take this Planet pest. DARKNESS FIRE INFERNO PRISON!" He shouted as a cage of pure fire started to emerge from his dark ring and completely surround the water Planeteer.

"What's this?" Gi asked as the fire cage started to shrink around her. "I'll use my water power to get….me…..out." Gi stated before she started to faint.

"GI!" Kwami and Linka yelled.

"What have you done to her?" Lion-O asked as he started to approach the Planeteers.

"Not one more step Thundercat." The warrior stated as he started to show his sword to Lion-O. "I have stopped the fire cage from shrinking any further, but the intense heat will kill her if you don't do what I say." The warrior stated in his most angered tone.

"What is it that you want?" Lion-O stated as Kwami and Linka started to join Lion-O.

"Admit what you have done. Admit that you killed my wife and children in cold blood for me not joining you."

"Voshamoy." Linka started to say. "What are you talking about?"

"You be quiet!" The warrior started to yell. "You killed my wife and children with your wind power. For that I will kill you, but for now I shall leave you with a little reminder of what is to come." The warrior stated as he started to fling his sword towards Lion-O and the Planeteers.

"PLANETEERS, THUNDERCATS, LOOK OUT!" Lion-O yelled as he tried to deflect the Sword of Plun-Darr with his own sword. "HO!" He shouted as the sword changed to long sword just in time to deflect the warrior's blade.

As the Thundercat's blade started to deflect the warrior's blade, the warrior's eyes inside his helmet started to glow red as his sword started to turn around. As Lion-O continued to try and deflect the sword, both Kwami and Linka started to head towards the warrior to try and stop him.

"Now we have you." Kwami stated before a beam of energy started to hit the Earth Planeteer in the lower right leg, causing him to hit the ground hard.

"Kwami!" Linka yelled as another energy beam started to head towards her, forcing the wind Planeteer to hit the ground as well.

"NO!" The warrior stated as he shielded her from another blast with his armor.

"Why?" Linka asked with much confusion. "Why did you save me?"

"Oh my dear, I didn't save you." The warrior stated as his red eyes started to glow. "I want you to suffer." He added as his sword started to come back to his hand. "Now have this as a reminder." He added as he took his sword and made a small cut on Linka's left arm.

As he started to pierce Linka's skin, the Wind Planeteer did all that she could while trying not to scream in pain.

"There that should do for now." He stated as Linka started to bleed while he started to retract his sword. "Pollution, Zarm we are done here for now." The warrior stated as Zarm and Pollution started to disappear from the battlefield.

"Whoever you are, I will make you pay for this." Linka stated as the warrior started to kneel down next to the injured Planeteer.

"Wrong." The warrior stated as he started to look into the Planeteer's eyes. "You killed my wife and my children. Now I will make you suffer." He added as he started to remove his golden helmet.

After the warrior had removed his helmet, Linka was almost in a state of shock when she saw the man behind the mask.

"Whee….Wheeler?" She started to say." Why are you doing this? I love you."

"I don't know what you are talking about. You killed my wife Trish and took the lives of my children. Now live with the thought that your time is running out." He stated as he started to place the helmet back on his head. "I shall leave you with a little something else to remember me by." Wheeler added as he kicked Linka in the head with just enough force to render her unconscious. As he looked at Linka's breathing body, a small tear started to form from his right eye before he started to vanish as well as the fire cage surrounding Gi.

As Wheeler and his two allies started to retreat, Lion-O and the other Thundercats as well as Ma-Ti started to tend to both Kwami and Gi.

"Kwami, are you alright?" Lion-O asked while Lynx-O Ma-Ti and Pumyra were checking on Gi.

"Never mind me, what about Linka." Kwami asked while trying to point towards Linka.

"LINKA!" Tygra shouted as himself and Panthro started to run towards her.

As the Thundercats started to run towards Linka, Lynx-O, Pumyra and Ma-Ti started to check on Gi's status.

"Lynx-O, how is Gi?" Ma-Ti asked in his most worried tone.

"I don't know Ma-Ti." Lynx-O started to say.

"It looks like Gi passed out from heat exhaustion. That fire cage must have been very intense. I'm surprised that she managed to survive at all." Pumyra stated in her most worried and honest tone.

"Let me see if I can reach Gi's mind." Ma-Ti stated as he started to close his eyes. "Heart!" Ma-Ti yelled as his ring started to emit orange energy beams. "Gi, can you hear me, are you alright?" Ma-Ti thought while waiting for an answer.

"Ma-Ti, I can hear you but I feel so tired and weak." Gi's mind started to say. "What happened to me? Why do I feel like this?"

"It is alright just calm down." Ma-Ti started to respond with his mind. "You seemed to have passed out from extreme heat. Do you know what happened?"

"I am trying to remember but I am so weak."

"Just save your strength until we can get you some medical help." Ma-Ti stated as he started to break the connection.

"Is Gi alright?" Pumyra asked with much concern.

"She is very weak and needs to be taken to the medical wing right away." Ma-Ti replied.

"I'll take her back to the lair, you need to help with the others." Pumyra stated as she started to pick up the water Planeteer. "We'll meet you back inside the medical wing." She added as she started to take Gi back inside the lair.

"Ma-Ti, Linka is seriously hurt!" Tygra yelled as both himself and Panthro started to examine Linka.

"What happened?" Ma-Ti asked with much concern as he approached Linka's motionless body.

"Linka's been hurt on her arm and seems to have been knocked out. It would appear that whoever did this made sure that your friend wouldn't cause any problems."

"Can she be moved back into the lair?"

"I'm not sure. I don't want to move her unless she will be alright, but the impact she took might have affected her memory and motor skills."

"I will try to contact Linka." Ma-Ti started to say as he started to aim his ring at Linka. "HEART!" He yelled as his orange energy waves started to surround Linka's head. "Linka, can you hear me?" Ma-Ti started to think into Linka's head.

After a moment or two Ma-Ti started to get a response.

"Ma-Ti? Is that you?" Linka's mind started to say.

"Linka are you alright? What happened to you? Who did this?"

"I…. I am trying to remember Ma-Ti."

"I know you can do it Linka please try and concentrate."

"No… NO… PLEASE NOOOOOOOOO! PLEASE STOP! DON'T DO THIS! PLEASE!"

"Linka, what are you talking about? Who did this to you?"

"I'm sorry Ma-Ti. I can't remember I….I…."

"LINKA!" Ma-Ti yelled after what was going on in her head.

"Ma-Ti, what happened to her?" Panthro asked as Tygra and himself were trying to pick up Linka very carefully.

"I'm not sure." Ma-Ti replied in a most confused tone. "Linka started to remember something but then I lost the connection to her mind."

"Has that ever happened before?" Tygra asked with much concern.

"No. It was like she was trying to keep something hidden from me." Ma-Ti replied in a most honest and concerned tone.

"Could it have been from the impact that she suffered?" Tygra asked with some wonder in his tone.

"It's possible, Linka said she was trying to remember something."

"Then we should get her back to Bengali right away." Tygra stated as Lion-O and Lynx-O were helping Kwami back to his feet.

"Panthro, Tygra, Ma-Ti, how is Linka doing?" Kwami asked while being helped by Lion-O and Lynx-O.

"It's not good Kwami." Ma-Ti started to say. "She is bleeding from her right arm and suffered an impact to her head.."

"I think I have something that we can use as a temporary bandage." Kwami stated as he started to take off one of his people's bandanas from his right arm. "Use this for now until we can get her back inside the lair." He added as Ma-Ti took the cloth and started to place it around Link's cut. "Will she be alright?" Kwami asked with much worry for his fellow Planeteer.

"I don't know." Panthro started to say while Ma-Ti finished with the bandage. "We need to get her back for medical treatment right away."

"Then let's get her there right now." Tygra stated as himself and Panthro started to pick up Linka and carry her carefully into the Cat's lair.

"Are you gonna be alright Kwami?" Ma-Ti asked while seeing the Earth Planeteer being helped my Lion-O and Lynx-O.

"I think so." Kwami started to say. "Pollution just got in a lucky shot while Linka and I were distracted by that warrior's sword."

"Don't be fooled by that sword." Lion-O started to say. "That weapon of his is very deadly. I had to face Mumm-Ra with that sword on more than one occasion."

"But how did that warrior get it?" Kwami asked with some confusion in his tone.

"Mumm-Ra must have given it to him."

"If that is true then we are all in trouble." Lynx-O stated in his most honest tone.

"What do you mean Lynx-O?" Kwami replied.

"That sword can only be used by someone with an evil heart, and it would seem that Mumm-Ra's warrior's heart is full of pure anger and hatred."

"We have to discover who this golden armor warrior really is before anyone else gets hurt." Lion-O started to say. "But for know let's all head back into the lair and have Bengali treat that leg of yours and help your teammates."

"Yes, and I will try to contact Linka's mind again. I'm sure she knows something but is afraid to let the rest of us know." Ma-Ti replied as everyone started to make there way back into the lair for medical treatment.

As the Thundercats and the Planeteers started to head back inside their home, back in his dark Pyramid, the devil priest Mumm-Ra was between being happy at what has happened to his enemies and almost angered at the actions of his newest warrior in evil. As all three of his allies finally re-appeared in front of him, the mummy started to approach the trio while trying not to show his true feelings.

"Master." Wheeler stated while seeing Mumm-Ra heading towards him and the others.

"Not a word for now." Mumm-Ra replied while trying to contain his anger.

"I would like to explain my actions out there on the battlefield."

"Fine, but it had better be good." Mumm-Ra replied with a little anger in his tone.

"Master, the plan worked perfectly. The Thundercats and the Planeteers were completely taken by surprise after Zarm and Pollution started their attacks."

"Don't forget dude, that if it wasn't for Zarm and that lucky shot, the two Eco-Geeks would have captured you." Pollution stated while trying to take some of the credit.

"I know and thanks for the assist." Wheeler replied in his most evilest tone. And I also have good news for you master."

"What good news?" Mumm-Ra asked with some wonder.

"I have personally injured and rendered useless the Planeteer who took my family away from me."

"You told me that you were gonna destroy the Planeteers and the Thudercats." Mumm-Ra replied in a much more angered tone. "Why did you fail me?"

"Please master let me explain my actions before you jump to the wrong conclusion."

"Explain, but it had better be good." The mummy started to say. "I don't like long stories."

"In a nutshell my master, in order to destroy your enemies, you must first make them suffer." Wheeler started to say as he took in a deep breath before continuing. "So that is what I did. I made them suffer by taking out two of the Planet pests."

"That's what you think." Zarm started to say. "You only got the Water pest to faint inside that fire cage of yours."

"Yes, but I also rendered the Wind Planet pest unable to take any action."

"But dude, you took off your helmet next to her." Pollution stated in his most shocking tone.

"I know that, it was also part of my plan to destroy them."

"And how was taking off your helmet and knocking out the Wind Planet pest part of your plan?" Mumm-Ra asked while waiting for Wheeler's next answer.

"I allowed her to see my face in order for her to reflect on what she and the others have done to me. The best way for enact revenge is to make them suffer. Once they have suffered enough then the destruction will begin my master."

After hearing Wheeler's answer for his actions, the devil priest was almost at a loss for words. A moment later he started to respond.

"An interesting strategy." Mumm-Ra started to say. "I only wish that those miserable mutants would have thought of it sooner. Then maybe we would be rid of everyone."

"My master, unlike your previous allies, I will not fail you." Wheeler replied as he went down to one knee. "Now that I have explained my actions to you I am ready for my punishment." He finished while waiting for his punishment to begin.

After a moment, Mumm-Ra started to walk over to Wheeler and then placed his right mummified hand on Wheeler's left golden armor on his shoulder.

"Rise my warrior. There will be no punishment for a job well done." Mumm-Ra stated in his most proud tone.

"My master." Wheeler replied as he went back up to his feet.

"Zarm, Pollution you both also did very good." Mumm-Ra stated as he started to shift his gaze towards his two allies. "I wanted the Thundercats and the Planeteers to suffer and everyone did their job correctly. Now I must rest." He added as he started to re-enter his sarcophagus.

"Have a good rest my lord." Wheeler replied as Mumm-Ra entered his casket and the cover closed on him.

"Now what do we do?" Pollution started to say.

"I know what we should do." Zarm replied. "We should take out everyone before they have had a chance to regroup."

"That sounds like a good plan, but we should have a backup just in case." Wheeler replied while starting to think. "We must plan carefully and anticipate any action taken against us."

"Let us talk and begin to form a plan to destroy them once and for all." Zarm stated as all three of them started to work on a new plan of attack.

Unaware of what was happening inside Mumm-Ra's Dark Pyramid, back at the Cat's Lair, most of the Thundercats have already started repairs on their home while inside the medical bay, Bengali had started to treat all of the injured Planeteers. While treating everyone, Leia, Nayda and Ma-Ti were giving Bengali a helping hand in making sure that everyone is as comfortable as can be.

"Ma-Ti, how are Gi's readings?" Bengali asked while Ma-Ti started to look at the screen.

"Gi's readings are starting to get stronger Bengali." Ma-Ti replied while the Asian Planeteer was on a medical bed wearing a type of hospital gown.

"Leia, Nayda how is Kwami and Linka?"

"I've already started treatment on Kwami's injury, but it will take some time for his leg to get better." Nayda replied in her most honest tone.

"Don't worry about my leg Nayda." Kwami started to say. "What about Linka?"

"Her injuries are more severe than we first thought." Leia started to say. "The cut on her arm was been treated but I'm afraid that the impact she suffered to her head has caused your friend here to go into a coma."

"Is there anything you can do for her Bengali?" Ma-Ti asked with some concern.

"Leia, please run a cranial scan to determine the length of the damage." Bengali stated as Leia started to get a cranial scanner.

"Running scans now." Leia stated as she started to move the scanner above Linka's injured head.

"I'm getting the readings Leia, keep scanning." Bengali replied as Ma-Ti started to join Bengali while looking at the data.

"Will Linka be alright?" Ma-Ti asked with much concern.

"I'm not sure." Bengali started to respond. "These scans show that there is some swelling in her Cerebrum, probability from the impact she took. I'm also detecting some swelling in her meninges, it could also effect her memory."

"What can we do to help her?" Ma-Ti stated while starting to get more worried.

"Leia, put down the cranial scanner and get the cranial repair unit."

"Right Bengali." Leia replied as she started to get the device to help their friend.

"Ma-Ti, I'll need your help as well."

"I'll do what I can. What do you need me to do?" Ma-Ti asked with some wonder.

"I need you to try and get in contact with Linka's mind. Keep her thinking and keep her distracted. Once we start to try and repair the damage to her brain, if anything goes wrong it could seriously affect her in the long run."

"Of course Bengali. I'll do what I can to help."

"I know. Remember before we can start you have to connect to Linka's mind so that it can keep working. Try to help her remember things about her past, your adventures together anything to help her keep her memories intact until the procedure is completed."

"I understand." Ma-Ti replied as Leia came back towards Link's bedside with the device.

"I believe that I have it Bengali." Leia stated while carrying a rectangle shaped device with flashing lights on top.

"That's it Leia, now place it on top of Linka's forehead and make sure it is secured." Bengali replied as he started to activate a computer program to begin helping their friend recover.

"Right Bengali." Leia replied as she placed the device on top of Linka's forehead. A moment later the device was completely secured and ready to work.

"Alright Ma-Ti, now it is your turn. Make sure that you have contact with Linka's mind before we begin.

"Right Bengali." Ma-Ti stated before heading towards Linka's bedside.

After his response, the South American went over to the bedside of their fallen comrade in order to help Linka get better.

"Ready to begin Bengali." Ma-Ti stated with pride in his tone.

"Do it Ma-Ti and remember tell me the instant you've made contact so we can begin." Bengali replied.

"Right." Ma-Ti replied before taking in a deep breath before his next move. "HEART!" He shouted as orange energy waves started to emit from his ring to Linka's mind.

As Ma-Ti's ring started to emit it's orange energy, the South American started to try and gain access to Linka's mind to keep her distracted while Bengali was standing by to begin the procedure.

"Linka…. Linka can you hear me? It's Ma-Ti your friend. Please Linka answer me." Ma-Ti started to think as he was trying to get a response from Linka's mind.

"Anything Ma-Ti?" Bengali asked with some concern.

"Nothing yet Bengali." Ma-Ti replied.

"She has to respond, any longer and we risk damaging her mind and body."

"I will keep trying." Ma-Ti stated as he closed his eyes and started to concentrate.

"Linka, you must answer me. You are in great danger. PLEASE LINKA WE ALL LOVE YOU AND WANT YOU BACK!" He yelled in order to get Linka's attention.

After a moment, he started to get a response.

"Ma-Ti? Is that you?" Linka's mind replied.

After getting a reply, Ma-Ti opened his eyes to let Bengali know what is happening.

"Bengali, I have a response from Linka." Ma-Ti stated in his most excited tone.

"That's great Ma-Ti." Bengali stated as he started up the program." The program is running now keep her mind working for about an hour max."

"I'll do what I can." Ma-Ti replied as he started to close his eyes once again.

"Linka, is everything alright?" Ma-Ti asked with some concern.

"I don't know. I'm starting to feel strange." Linka started to say. "What's happening to me?"

"Linka, you have to listen to me very carefully."

"What is going on Ma-Ti? Why do I feel strange?"

"During our last battle with Pollution and Zarm, you were injured by Mumm-Ra's golden warrior. He impacted your head and now you are in a coma. Bengali is trying to help you but you must keep you mind going. You must remember."

"Remember what?"

"You must remember everything."

"I don't know if I can Ma-Ti. I feel like some of my past is fading away from me."

"That is why I'm here, to help you remember everything until Bengali is done, but you have to remember everything, the good and the bad."

"I understand but I'm afraid."

"I will be with you the entire time. You won't be alone."

"Alright then."

After Linka's answer, the entire mindscape started to change into a solid green ground with multiple wooden doors appearing in front of both Linka and Ma-Ti. As they approached one of the doors, Ma-Ti notices that Linka was being hesitant about opening her first door.

"What's wrong Linka?" Ma-Ti asked while still inside Linka's mind.

"I'm afraid to find out where this door will lead to." Linka replied with fear in her tone.

"The only way to find out is to open it."

"Da. Here we go." Linka replied as she started to open the door.

As Linka started to open the wooden door in front of her, a blinding flash of white light started to appear, completely enveloping the duo. As the light started to disappear, Linka and Ma-Ti started to find themselves in an old village somewhere in the world with multiple people and a small blonde headed girl in the crowd.

"Linka, where are we?" Ma-Ti asked with some wonder.

"We… We are in my hometown in the Soviet Union. I can't believe I didn't recognize it sooner." Linka replied in an excited tone.

"And that little girl?" Ma-Ti asked with wonder.

"That is me, when I was very young."

"You were very cute back then Linka."

"Thank you Ma-Ti." Linka replied while blushing a little.

"So what memory is this?'

"This was the memory when my grandmother, Mishka and I were going towards my parents funeral. I hadn't thought about this memory for a long time. I was only a child when they left us, but my grandmother raised both of us as if we were her own children." She started to say as tears started to appear in her eyes.

"I'm sorry for your loss and for what I am forcing you to do."

"Na Ma-Ti. I need to remember everything." Linka replied as another wooden door started to appear before them.

"Where does this door lead to?"

"I guess we will find out together." Linka replied as she opened the new door.

As Linka started to open the second of her memory doors, another bright light started to envelope both herself and Ma-Ti, but this time the light was a green light. As the light started to disappear, they both found themselves in a small room with some flashing lights and a very small tree with decorations on it. They also started to see a older woman with grayish hair taking care of two children on the floor.

"Linka, where are we this time?" Ma-Ti asked with wonder.

"I believe this is the Christmas year when I turned nine with my brother Mishka."

"I still say that you were very cute back then." Ma-Ti stated as they both started to hear music being played. "Linka is that you making the music?"

"Da, well younger me." Linka started to say while blushing a little." This was the year that I got my first piano and started to learn all of the birds songs that I play often."

"I can't believe it."

"Believe what?"

"That even at that age you can still play beautiful music."

"Stop it Ma-Ti. You're embarrassing me." Linka replied as they both started to laugh a little.

As Ma-Ti and Linka continued to laugh during her childhood memory another wooden door started to appear in front of them. This door was covered with bird feathers and the symbol of her Planeteer symbol.

"Linka do you know where this door leads to?" Ma-Ti asked with some concern,

"I believe so Ma-Ti." Liknka replied as she opened the door.

As Linka opened the door, this time they were both enveloped by a bright blue light sending the both of them to a new location. As the light started to vanish they both saw themselves in a beautiful meadow with mountains going into the sky. As they both continued to look onward they saw an older blonde girl playing her keyboard while being surrounded by birds.

"Linka, where are we this time?" Ma-Ti asked with much wonder in his tone.

"This is were I received my ring from Gaia." Linka stated as she started to see a bird give her a shiny ring.

"I would guess that this is a happy memory for you."

"Da. It is." Linka stated as the entire place started to change.

"Linka what is happening?" Ma-Ti asked while the entire scene was changing.

"I don't know." Linka replied as a new scene started to emerge.

As they both looked on the memory of Linka getting her ring started to change into her first meeting with the rest of the Planeteers. As the duo continued to watch they both saw all five of them being transported to Hope Island for the first time and meeting each other.

"I know this memory." Ma-Ti stated.

"Da. This is when I first met everyone." Linka replied as she started to see Wheeler make his first move on her.

"Wheeler really likes you, even from your first meeting."

"Da." Linka replied as they both started to see something different than before.

"Linka, are you blushing while we were paying attention to Gaia's mission."

"Da. I guess that I really couldn't hide my feelings back then, but I knew that I had to in order for us to be a team. I had to be strict."

"Being strict is one thing but you should also have time for fun."

"Da. I will work on that afterwards." Linka replied as they both started to laugh.

After Ma-Ti and Linka had stopped laughing, another wooden door started to appear in front of both of them. This time there was some strange symbol embedded on the brownish wooden door.

"Linka, what is that symbol on the door?" Ma-Ti asked as they both walked towards the door.

"No… Not that symbol." Linka replied as a tear started to show from her eyes.

"Linka?"

"It is a symbol for a great loss. I'm not sure that I want to open it." Linka replied while feeling scared.

"Linka, you have to. Don't be scared, whatever it is we will face it together." Ma-Ti replied in his most comforting tone.

"Thanks Ma-Ti." Linka stated as she started to open the door.

As Linka started to open the newest door in front of her and Ma-Ti, they were both being enveloped by a bright green light. As the light started to disappear the duo were in another location with burned out buildings, and places of great respect to all.

"Oh no." Ma-Ti started to say. "I think I know what memory this is and Linka, I am sorry that you have to face it."

"I know that I am afraid and sad but I have to face it." Linka replied as they both started to see the memory unfold.

As they both continued to watch, they saw that Linka's cousin Boris and herself were completely hooked on Bliss and would do anything for another fix. Then the duo saw that Scum had given Boris another bag of drugs and then he was dead from an overdose of Bliss. Linka's favorite cousin had been killed which made her very sad.

"Please no more." Linka started to say with an upset tone. "I can't stand to see anymore of this."

"Linka, you have to." Ma-Ti replied while trying to be brave for both of them.

"But why?"

"Cause if you don't then, we could loose you forever."

"WHAT?!"

"Linka, Bengali is working on helping you but you have to continue to relive some of your memories in order for him to save you. You must, it is the only way."

""sniff" All right Ma-Ti, I will try to be brave."

"Linka, from what I have seen already, you are the bravest person that I know so far."

"Thank you Ma-Ti." Linka started to say in a much calmer tone. "If I am being honest, it is very difficult to control my feelings right now."

"With all of these memories starting to show up, I completely understand." Ma-Ti replied as the mindscape started to change again.

As both Linka and Ma-Ti looked on the entire location of Linka's memory started to change again from the burned out section of Washington D.C. to a recovery effort location near the United States Capital. There they both saw thousand of medical tents with people laying down on make shift medical beds as Wheeler and Linka started to have a short discussion.

"It's alright to cry Linka." Wheeler started to say in his most sympathetic tone. "They say that withdrawl is the worst kind of pain."

"Nyet, it is not as bad as loosing Boris." Linka replied in her most saddened tone.

After her memory replied to Wheeler's statement, Linka started to have tears in her eyes as she and Ma-Ti continued to watch.

"Linka?" Ma-Ti asked while seeing Linka's tears.

"Da, Ma-Ti.."

"Are you alright?"

"I will be but this memory still hurts me so much."

"I'm sorry that you have to face it."

"Da, but with you here it doesn't hurt as much." Linka replied as another wooden door started to appear.

"This door has no symbol. Is that a good thing?" Ma-Ti asked with some concern.

"I don't know but I guess we will find out." Linka replied as she started to open the new door.

As Linka opened this new door the duo started to become enveloped in a purplish light. As the light started to dissapear the duo started to appear in another memory, this time at some sort of amusement park some where is the USA. As the light finally disappeared both Ma-Ti and Linka started to see where they are now in the memory.

"I remember this place." Linka stated with some joy in her tone.

"Me too. This is where Wheeler took us after our mission with Blight was over." Ma-Ti stated as they were being surrounded by many people by a small lake inside the park.

"I still couldn't believe that Gaia allowed Wheeler to take us to that what was it called again?"

"I believe Wheeler called it a Halloween Horror Night event."

"Da. We had just finished going through one house and then we were finished going on that ride."

"Right Linka. Do you remember what ride?'

"It had something to do with future."

"That's right Linka. Back to the Future, and do you remember what happened after that?"

"Da.. Da. We were asked to perform with the staff for their Bone night show." Linka stated as the Planeteers in costume started to appear with the staff At Universal Studios.

"I still couldn't believe that we got to be part of the show." Ma-Ti stated with excitement in his tone.

"Da, Wheeler did have a great idea about taking us there. We all needed a break after that mission."

"Linka, I don't think that I have ever heard you ever say anything nice about Wheeler's ideas."

"Well just don't tell him that I said so otherwise who knows what he might have planned for us when we get back home."

"You mean besides working on a special Honeymoon for the two of you."

"Honeymoon? What Honeymoon?" Linka repied while being a little confused.

"Linka, don't tell me that you have forgotten that you and Wheeler are married?"

After Ma-Ti's reply, Linka started to have a blank state on her face but only for a moment.

"Ma-Ti what is happening to me? Why can't I remember about myself and Wheeler?" Linka started to say with panic in her tone.

"Calm down Linka." Ma-Ti started to say in his most honest tone. "I think that the closer we get to your present memories the harder it is for you to remember them."

"Are you sure?"

"No. But it seems to be the only solution that I can think of. Remember I am only a traveler with you."

"Da, but I am glad that you are here with me."

"And I will be here until the end." Ma-Ti replied as another door started to appear in front of both of them.

"Where do you think this door goes to?" Linka replied as she started to look at the bluish wooden door.

"I'm not sure Linka, but there is only one way to find out." Ma-Ti replied as Linka started to open the door.

As Linka started to open the new wooden door, they were both enveloped again by a bright yellowish light. A moment later, the light started to vanish and both Ma-Ti and Linka were in a house with Linka's brother and her Grandmother in the next room. While they were watching they both saw Linka saying good-bye to her fellow Planeteers.

"Linka, is this?" Ma-Ti started to say until Linka interrupted him.

"Da Ma-Ti." Linka started to say as she was taken back by her own memories. "This is when Wheeler risked his life for me when I left the Planeteers to find out what was making my Grandmother sick back home in the Soviet Union."

"And you both found out it was the shillings from the old Iron Mine."

"Da. The shillings from the mine got mixed in with our drinking water and made everyone sick." Linka replied as she and Ma-Ti saw Linka give Wheeler a very passionate kiss on his lips before Wheeler left the home.

"Linka, I want to ask you something about that kiss."

"What?" Linka replied as she started to blush after seeing her memory from that moment.

"Did you really mean it when you kissed Wheeler like that?" I'm just saying, that kiss is one of love and passion."

"I… I was unsure about it. I mean I know that Yankee can be a handful but some part of me was deeply in love with him. Then after that moment and I came back, we didn't discuss it any further."

"Why? Why didn't you discuss it any further?"

"I guess it was a little awkward between the two of us. I don't know, maybe I was afraid it would have ruined our friendship."

"And did it?"

"Well we did get on each other's nerves from time to time and yes I may have gotten jealous whenever he started to hit on another woman, but some part of me knew where his true feelings lied."

"Are we talking about you Linka?" Ma-Ti asked with wonder and honesty in his tone.

"Da. No matter how many time I tried to fight my feelings for him, I always loose. I was and now in love with Wheeler."

After Linka's statement, the mindscape started to change into a new location. This new location had the Planeteers helping out by unpacking boxes of supplies and clothes. As they continued to watch the memory unfold Linka started to feel a little strange.

"Is something wrong Linka?" Ma-Ti asked while noticing.

"Da. This memory, this is the one when Wheeler had to leave to see his father back home in Brooklyn N.Y." Linka replied as a tear started to emerge from her right eye.

"Yes we were all saddened by what Wheeler had told us about his dad."

"Da, and then Wheeler left us to be with him. When he left us for a while I felt like a part of my heart and soul were gone."

"Linka." Ma-Ti stated after hearing such a statement from Linka.

"But then when he came back he didn't discuss anything about it except what Scumm was doing to a bunch of friends that Wheeler knew from his old neighborhood."

"Linka I." Ma-Ti started to say but was afraid to continue.

"What is it Ma-Ti?"

"I don't think that I should tell you. It might make your situation worse."

"Ma-Ti we are going through all of my memories in order to save me, if you need to tell me something then please do." Linka stated as Ma-Ti started to take in a deep breath before continuing.

"It's about what happened to Wheeler when he was in Brooklyn. He told me this in confidence and promised me to make sure that you didn't hear this."

"What is it Ma-Ti?"

"After the battle with Scumm, Wheeler rescued his ex-girlfriend Trish from drowning after she disabled his chopper."

"So?"

"After that, he and Trish shared a passionate kiss between them." Ma-Ti stated while starting to feel a little depressed. "I swore that I would never tell anyone about it and now I broke my word to Wheeler."

"Ma-Ti." Linka started to say as she started to comfort the South American Planeteer. "Thank you for telling me what happened."

"Hunh."

"That explains why Wheeler came back from Brooklyn in a much calmer demeter than when he left."

"Yes but he wanted to tell me what really happened when he got home so not to upset you. He loves you very much and would do anything for you. Plus he didn't want to ruin anything between the two of you"

"I know that Ma-Ti and I am much better for it."

After Linka's statement another wooden door started to appear in front of the duo. This door was painted in the Thundercat colors and had their symbol embedded on it as well.

"Where does this door lead to?" Ma-Ti asked while seeing the door appear.

"I think I might now. You said that the closer we get to my present memories, the harder it will be for me to remember. Maybe by helping me through everything so far we are actually recovering those memories."

"Anything is worth a try right now. I just wish I knew how Bengali was doing?" Ma-Ti stated with a worried tone in his voice.

"Can't you just talk to him right now?" Linka asked with some wonder.

"No. It is taking all of my concentration to stay connected to your mind. If I break that connection then I might not be able to find you again."

"I understand." Linka stated as the wooden door started to glow. "What is happening to that door?"

"It seems that it wants you to open it." Ma-Ti stated as the door continued to glow. "Are you?"

"Da. But only if you open it with me." Linka replied as she started to place her hand on the doorknob.

"Sure." Ma-Ti replied as he also placed his hand on the doorknob.

"Ready Ma-Ti?" Linka asked with wonder in her tone.

"Ready on three." Ma-Ti replied.

"ONE..TWO..THREE..!" They both yelled as they opened the door at the same time.

As they both opened the wooden door, a bright brownish light started to envelope the duo. A moment later, the light started to vanish and both Linka and Ma-Ti found themselves in a crowd of people watching a ceremony happening in front of the Cat's Lair. As they continued to watch they saw themselves being inducted into the Thundercat family.

"I know this memory." Linka stated as she continued to see the memory unfold.

"Yes. This is when Lion-O and the other Thundercats anointed us into their family. I was so nervous then." Ma-Ti stated with pride and honesty in his tone.

"Not so much as I was." Liunka replied while seeing her face in the memory. "I was afraid I was going to do something foolish."

"But you didn't, and now we are part of a new family."

"Yes but look at Wheeler, I think that he was more nervous then any of us back then." Linka stated while looking at her soon to be husband's face. "I think he was almost glowing with glee."

"Well he did have a hard life. His dad telling him that he was a looser and then running away to the park where he spent his time with Frankie and Trish."

"Da, but I didn't know how much he missed having a family until I saw this memory."

"But now you both can start a family once we get him back from Mumm-Ra."

"We have to, I can't imagine my life without Wheeler in it."

"Linka."

"I almost lost him once because I was more worried about my family, now he is my family and I will do whatever it takes to get him back." Linka stated as the memory started to change again.

"Linka, what's happening?" Ma-Ti asked while the memory started to change.

"I don't know." Linka replied as a new memory started to take shape.

As Linka and Ma-Ti continued to watch, the memory started to change from the Planeteers being anointed into the Thundercat family to Wheeler and Linka's wedding ceremony. As they continued to watch they saw that Linka and Wheeler had just finished saying their vows as Mandora took a cloth and wrapped it around both of their hands. A moment later the duo saw Wheeler getting shot in the back by Mandora who was later revealed to be Mumm-Ra in disguise. A moment later a tear started to appear on Linka's face as the memory finished.

"Linka?"

"Sorry Ma-Ti." Linka replied as she started to wipe a tear from her face.

"Don't be. None of us had any idea that Mandora was Mumm-Ra in disguise."

"But what happened afterwards, him kidnapping me, getting myself poisoned and then the way I treated Wheeler and Gi. I couldn't believe that I did all of those things. It felt like a nightmare.

"It wasn't you Linka. The poison from one of Spidera's children messed with your head and your feelings for both Wheeler and Gi."

"That maybe true but I am unsure about that."

"What do you mean that you were unsure about that?"

"Maybe getting poisoned might have brought up those feeling that I have had buried deep inside me."

"If that is the case then we all know that you weren't yourself. Besides you were able to remember your feelings later on."

"Yes but I was able to recover them while we were having our battle. Not a good place to go down memory lane."

"Maybe, but the important thing is that you are back with us."

"Yes and now we have to do the same for Wheeler. We have to save him. I have to save him. I must."

"Linka, what are talking about?" Ma-Ti stated as the final wooded door started to appear.

As the door started to appear this one was different than all of the rest. This door was wooden with blood red all over and the symbol of Mumm-Ra on the door. As Linka and Ma-Ti continued to look at the door, this one had no handle and a dark aura around the entire door.

"How are we gonna open this door Ma-Ti?" Linka started to ask with wonder. "There is no handle or doorknob to turn."

"I think I know why this door has no doorknob to open." Ma-Ti replied in his most honest tone.

"What is it then?"

"Linka, we are inside your mind and seeing your memories."

"Da. I know that, but what does that have to do with this door?"

"Linka, I think some part of you doesn't want to show us this memory. Your mind is somehow created a defense system to block us access to it."

"So how do we unblock it?"

"Linka, this is your mind. You control what happens here. You must will the door to open to get at the memory that is being blocked from us."

"I don't know if I can. Something about that memory scares me. I can't explain it."

"Linka, I am with you in your mind. Together there is nothing that we can't overcome. You just need to remember that and that no one is ever alone." Ma-Ti stated as he placed his right hand in Linka's left hand. "Now please concentrate and imagine a doorknob to open the door."

"Alright Ma-Ti. I will try." Linka replied as she started to close her eyes and concentrate.

As Linka started to close here eyes, the wooden door started to glow red as if it was trying to fight off Linka's will to be opened. As she continued to try and will it to open, she started to feel weaker as if her strength was being drained. A moment later she fell to her knees from exhaustion.

"Linka!" Ma-Ti yelled as he went to her side to help. "Are you alright?"

"Na. I feel weak. What is happening to me? Why can't I open that door?"

"You are trying to fight your own defenses to open that door. You can't do it alone." Ma-Ti started to say as he started to help Linka up from the floor. "But maybe together we can break through and get that last door opened."

"But what if I don't want to see what is behind it?" Linka replied in a panic tone in her voice.

"Linka, you must be brave." Ma-Ti stated as he placed his right hand in Linka's left hand. "Now let's open this door together."

"Da. Let's do it." Linka replied as they both started to concentrate.

As both Linka and Ma-Ti started to concentrate, the dark aura that was surrounding the wooden door started to vanish. After a bit more concentration, the dark aura finally vanished and a doorknob appeared on the door. A moment later, both Linka and Ma-Ti started to fall to the ground.

"Linka, are you OK?" Ma-Ti asked as they both went to their knees.

"Da. A little tired, but I should be fine." Linka replied in an exhausted tone.

"Linka look." Ma-Ti stated as he starte to look at the wooden door. "The dark aura is gone and a doorknob has appeared. Now we can open it."

"R-Right." Linka replied in a frightened tone.

"It will be alright Linka." Ma-Ti stated as he helped up Linka while getting himself to his feet. "Just remember that I am here with you."

"Thank you Ma-Ti." Linka replied as she placed her right hand on the doorknob. "Now let's see where we will go now." She added as she opened the door.

As Linka opened the last of her memory doors, both herself and Ma-Ti started to become enveloped inside a blazing and blinding red light. After a moment of blindness the red light started to fade away. As the light faded away, the mind scape's memory started to change into the battle that Linka, Kwami, Gi as well as the Thundercats had outside the lair. As the memory continued to unfold, Ma-Ti was shocked by what he was seeing.

"I had now idea what was happening out there Linka." Ma-Ti stated as he continued to watch the memory.

"Da Ma-Ti. This new warrior of Mumm-Ra's is really tough, and he has no remorse for what he had done." Linka replied as the warrior enjoyed Kwami being injured and incapacitated Gi.

"Linka, is something wrong?" Ma-Ti asked while looking at Linka's face "It is like you are seeing a ghost or something?"

"I don't know. I am trying to remember what was happening at that moment, but it is hard."

"Linka, I want you to try and freeze everything that is happening right now." Ma-Ti stated as Linka started to try and freeze the memory.

After hearing Ma-Ti, Linka started to concentrate in order to try and freeze her memory. As she continued to try and concentrate, the memory started to freeze where the warrior was removing his helmet revealing his identity to Linka. As the memory completely froze, both of the Planeteers started to approach the frozen warrior.

"Ma-Ti!" Linka yelled while looking at the warrior.

"What is it Linka?!" MA-Ti repied as he approached Linka.

"The warrior's face it is blurred. I can't make it out." Linka replied while looking confused at the warrior's face.

"Linka, I think that part of your mind is still fighting you on this."

"Boshomi, Ma-Ti. How can I see the warrior's face in my own mind won't allow me to see it?"

"Linka, you have to concentrate and break through. You control your mind not the other way around. You must will your mind to show you the warrior's face."

"I'll try Ma-Ti." Linka replied as she continued to try to clear up the warrior's face.

As Linka continued to concentrate, the face of the golden warrior started to get more into focus.

"That's it Linka, you've almost got it." Ma-Ti stated as the image of the warrior's face was just about cleared up. "Just a little more and we will know who this person is."

As the image of the warrior's face started to become much clearer, the look on the Wind Planeteer's face started to change into a reaction of shock and betrayal.

"NYET! NYET! NYET! THIS CAN'T BE TRUE!" Linka started to yell as she finally started to see the face of her attacker. "MA-TI PLEASE TELL ME THAT THIS ISN'T TRUE! THAT MY MEMORY ISN'T CORRECT!" Linka added as Ma-Ti saw the face as well.

"I'm sorry to say this Linka, but if your memory is correct then Wheeler was the one who attacked us." Ma-Ti replied in his most honest and saddened tone.

"But Wheeler would never do anything like this." Linka started to say while still feeling very sad, "There must be a reason for this."

"Wait Linka, look at Wheeler's eyes." Ma-Ti stated while looking at his friends eyes. "They are not blue, they are colored red."

"Wait a moment." Linka started to say as she also started to see the change in the Fire Planeteer's eyes. "You're right Ma-Ti. His eyes are red, but why are they red?"

"Something tells me that Mumm-Ra is behind this." Ma-Ti stated as he started to feel strange. "Linka, I am being pulled out of your mind. I think that Bengali is finished helping you. Will you be alright?"

"Da. Now that I have been forced to relive my life, I am determined more than ever to rescue Wheeler and teach that stupid mummy a serious lesson." Linka stated with much determination in her tone.

"Good. I'll let the others know what happened. Maybe we can mount a rescue mission to save Wheeler." Ma-Ti stated as he was about to break the connection.

"Ma-Ti." Linka stated before Ma-Ti left her mind,

"What is it Linka?" Ma-Ti replied.

"Thank you for helping me through everything."

"You are quite welcome Linka. I just hope that you will wake up to help as well."

"I will my friend. I want to save my husband and bring him home. Now go tell the others what happened and hopefully I will join you."

"Alright Linka," Ma-Ti stated before breaking his connection to Linka's mind.

As Ma-Ti's mental image left Linka's mind, back in the real world, Bengali had just finished Linka's treatment when Ma-Ti started to open his eyes.

"Ma-Ti, can you hear me?' Bengali asked as he was running a scan on Linka.

After hearing Bengali's voice the Heart Planeteer started to open his eyes.

"I can hear you Bengali. How did Linka's treatment go?" Ma-Ti asked with wonder.

"I don't know what you did inside Linka's mind but whatever you did it seemed to have worked. I was able to repair the damage done to her by that Golden warrior of Mumm-Ra's."

"I'm afraid that I have bad news for everyone Bengali." Ma-Ti stated as someone was entering the medical bay.

As Ma-Ti and Bengali were having their discussion, Lion-O had just entered the medical bay with Lynx-O right beside him.

"Bengali, Ma-Ti, how is Cheetara, Kwami, Gi and Linka doing?" Lion-O asked with some concern in his tone.

"Cheetara, Gi and Kwami are resting right now. Cheetara just need some time to recover fully from her ordeal. As for Gi and Kwami, Gi is getting stronger and should wake up any moment and Kwami's injury is already healing up nicely."

"What about Linka? How si she doing?" Lynx-O asked with some concern.

"Bengali needed me to help keep Linka's mind active while he started to repair the damage done to her head."

"Yes, and Ma-Ti was a great help. Whatever he did helped me repair any damage to Linka's memory."

"Now all we need to do is to find out the idenity of that golden warrior and rescue Wheeler from Mumm-Ra's Black Pyramid." Lion-O stated with confidence in his tone.

"Um Lion-O. I think there is something that you should know." Ma-Ti started to say.

"Ma-Ti? What is it my friend?" Lynx-O stated in a worried tone.

"While inside Linka's mind I discovered some terrible news about the golden warrior."

"Do you know who the warrior is?" Lion-O asked with wonder.

"Yes."

"Ma-Ti, I sense that what you have discovered has seriously affected you my friend." Lynx-O stated while sensing the confusion in Ma-Ti's tone.

"You could say that Lynx-O. I'm not sure where to begin."

"Ma-Ti, I'll get all of the Thundercats to gather in the conference room. Then you can tell us what you know." Lion-O stated.

"What if the others wake up?"

"I'll send Wilykit to Bengali to fill him in on everything after you have told us."

"Alright Lion-O."

"Lynx-O, please escort Ma-Ti to the conference room and tell the other Thundercats to meet us there. I' will join you after I see Cheetara, Gi and Kwami."

"Sure thing Lion-O." Lynx-O replied as he and Ma-Ti left the medical bay.

As Lynx-O and Ma-Ti left the medical bay, Lion-O and Bengali went to check in on the other Planeteers and Cheetara. A moment later they reached the Bio-beds with the Planeteers and Cheetara laying down on them. After arriving inside the room, Lion-O started to walk over to Cheetara to see how she is doing.

"Hey there." Lion-O started to say. "Don't tell me you are going to back out on my lessons later on." Lion-O stated in his humorous tone.

"Very funny Lion-O." Cheetara replied as she gave him a passionate kiss. "That was just a preview for later on." Cheetara added after releasing Lion-O from the kiss. "What happened in the meeting?"

"To sum it up, Mumm-Ra has a new warrior helping him. He injured Kwami and Gi and put Linka in a coma."

"Oh no."

"Don't worry Cheetara, Linka is going to make a full recovery." Bengali stated while watching Lion-O and Cheetara.

"I'm glad to hear that." Cheetara started to say. "Lion-O, is something wrong?"

"What do you mean?" Lion-O replied.

"Lion-O, I don't need my sixth sense to tell me that something is bothering you."

"I don't know. Ma-Ti says that he knows the identity of the golden warrior but is bothered by it."

"Whatever or whoever it is we will defeat him for everything that he has done to our friends."

"You're right but something about him still feels familiar."

"How so?"

"I'm not sure. I mean I don't have your powers of sixth sense but I do have a feeling that we all know him."

"Well I'm sure that once Ma-Ti tells us everything that we will have all of our answers."

"You're right." Lion-O stated as he started to stand up. "Well I better get going. I'll have Wilykit explain everything to everyone here once Ma-Ti fills us in."

"Don't take to long Lion-O." Cheetara replied as she started to bat her eyes at Lion-O.

"I won't." Lion-O replied as he started to leave the medical bay.

As Lion-O started to head towards the conference room, his thoughts are plagued by what Ma-Ti might have seen inside Linka's mind. As he approaches the room he hopes that all of the Thundercats are ready to learn the true identity of Mumm-Ra's golden warrior. Little do all of the Thundercats and their friends know, that once the warrior's identity is revealed it will shake the very foundation of their family for the rest of their lives.
