Lion-o and his True love

Chapter 16 Pumyra's captured days

Pumyra was held in  a cell. "Hello my dear," Mum-Ra said.

"Get away from me! Lion-o will rescue me!" Pumyra said.

"Oh please like that cat would do anything like that." Kaynar said.

"Watch it you crazy mutt our the next time I kick you jaw I'll make sure that you eat your own teeth!" Pumyra said.

"I want you to work for me," Mum-Ra said.

"I would never betray Lion-o, or my people!" Pumyra said.

"I have an idea Mum-Ra." Slithe said.

"Tell me," Mum-Ra said.

Slithe whispered it to Mum-Ra. "Good, Addicus why don't you help our cat friend sleep?" Mum-Ra asked.

Addicus knew what Mum-Ra meant and hit the back of Pumyra's head.

Pumyra was thrown into a world of darkness.

"Okay, Slithe place the tracker in skin of her ear." Mum-Ra said.

Slithe careful injected the tracker in Pumyra's ear.

Pumyra woke up in a cell guarded by lizards and was taken to mount Plun-Darr.

"Rattar-O we have new slave for you." the lizard said.

Slave? Pumyra thought.

"Okay, let's discuss price." Rattar-O said.

After a couple of minutes of debate they made a deal. A couple of Rats took Pumyra to where the other slaves were kept.

"Tomorrow you start working hard," the rat said.

Pumyra saw an injured cat.

"It's going to be okay sir," Pumyra said.

"Who are you?" the old cat asked.

"My name is Pumyra," Pumyra said.

"I remember you are the orphaned cub general Lynx-O raised." the old cat said.

"Yes now let me take a look at you wounds." Pumyra said. "Are there any other wounded?" she asked.

"Couple," the old cat said.

"I hope Lion-o will come to save us." Pumyra said.

"You know our king?' the old cat asked.

"I was traveling with him when I was captured." Pumyra said.

"So you're a Thundercat what a relief." the old cat said.

The cat notice the necklace Pumyra was wearing.

"So who is the lucky cat?" the old cat asked.

Pumyra looked at the necklace Lion-o made. She already knew what it was it was a sign they excepted to wanting to be together and be mates.

"Lion-o made this for me." Pumyra said.

"Our young king made it for you?" The old cat asked. "Looks like we will have a future queen." he said.

Pumyra smiled at him.

That night Pumyra began to think about Lion-o.  "Lion-o I hope you find and rescue all of us." Pumyra said.

The next day Pumyra began to work with the other slaves.  When she tripped and fell a rat began to whip her back.

"ARGH!" she said as she started to stand up. 

"That's right on your feet!" the rat said.

Pumyra continued to work for the next couple of months. She was getting tired of the treatment she was getting.

But she never gave up hope that Lion-o would come to rescue her. There was very little to eat.

Today a dog from dog city came in looking for a slave. His name was Dobo.

"What do you want dog?" Rattar-O asked.

"I wish to purchase one of your slaves." Dobo said.

"Okay, pick any slave you want their expendable." Rattar-O said.

Dobo began to look through the slaves. Then he saw Pumyra. A rat had been whipping her. She had enough of it and she grabbed the whip.

"Lash at me one more time and you will wish you never looked at me!" Pumyra said.

Dobo liked that attitude. Just what he needed for the pit.

"Excuse, miss what is you name?" Dobo asked.

"Pumyra, why are you here?" she asked.

"I'm here to pick out a slave and I like that attitude of yours so you are coming with me." Dobo said.

Dobo took Pumyra to Rattar-O. "I choose this cat." Dobo said.

"Okay, now let's discuss price." Rattar-O said.

After a bit of debating a deal was struck and Pumyra was taken out.

Dobo took Pumyra to the pit.

"What is this place?" Pumyra asked.

"It's the pit," Dobo said. "It's were slaves and prisoners fight." he said.

"So you want me to fight other slaves and prisoners?" Pumyra asked.

"Yes, and other things." Dobo said. "The rule is if you one hundred fights you will be free." he said.

"I see," Pumyra said.

"Get some rest because tomorrow you will start training." Dobo said.

Pumyra did as Dobo said and went to sleep.

The next couple of days it was nothing but training. Dobo went up to her. 

"Tomorrow is your first fight. I hope you do well." Dobo said.

Pumyra got plenty of rest but could help but think about Lion-o and her friends.

The next day Pumyra was up against a large dog prisoner.  Pumyra was a little nervous but managed to defeat the large dog.

Over the weeks Pumyra was becoming a capable fighter and kept thinking about Lion-o and hoped that he would come for her.

She knew he would.
