May Day: Part Four

May Day: Part 4 by Gatotrueno

     Lion-o scrolled down the site, and the Thundercats were awestruck with the wonders listed in The Official Thundercat Fan Club. Sounds, AVI's, Episode list, Top Ten, Club members, Joining the Club, with stories of all sorts. The only thing they really didn't care about clicking on was the NON-Thundercat related funny stuff. Other than that they were speechless, laughing at the outakes and the mixed sounds with them and Beavis and Butthead. But the thing that caught their attention the most was the other Thundercat links.
     After reading some of "Jesse's" fanfics, Panthro decided it was time to bring out the big guns- and rounded up five Thunderprinters- able to print out fanfics ten times faster than any normal printer. Cheetara caught on and brought out her own printer, the CheetahStylus200- about five times faster than a Thunderprinter, and if you want the math, fifty times faster than an Epson Stylus800- the ink has barely enough time to dry before ten pages can be printed. With these in hand, they proceeded to attach it to the main computer, figuring they could handle any more fanfics that came along.
     Going down the list, Slythe spotted a link labeled Castle Plundarr.
     "Let me ssssssee that ssssssite!!! Now!!!" He hissed. The other mutants agreed immediately- an uncommon behavior for mutants in general.
     "Castle Plundar?…Oh, all right. I guess it couldn't hurt." Lion-o sighed as he clicked on the link. Upon entry, it became apparent that Jackalman was supposedly the "host" of this site, with spoofs on the Mutants, Mumm-ra, and hilarious detail on the Thundercats and whether they kicked his ass. Jackalman had an ego boost with the time this fan put in for the Mutants, especially himself. They also printed out "Chasing Tail", which Slythe personally found most intriguing. The Lunatacks were stunned about how they closely resembled the characters from the "Rocky Horror Picture Show", something even they weren't even aware of.
     Soon the group came across a link labeled Skytomb. The Lunatacks quickly grew excited over this discovery, and Luna (as usual) was the first one to speak up.
     "Link us there now, or face my wrath!!" Luna screeched to Lion-o.
     "What are ya going to do, sic Amok on me?" Lion-o grinned.
     "No..." She whispered harshly. "But I will sing the Barney song in B-flat at 80 decibels if you don't..."
     "Nuff said- to Skytomb!" Lion-o clicked on the link. There, the Lunatacks drooled as their image was seen on the wide-screen computer. Even Luna was in good spirits for a change- and that too was uncommon. Unnatural even. After ten minutes of scrolling down the website, they ventured back to the links, and low and behold, was a link to Snarf and Snarfer's Website. The resident snarfs too had to see their faces on the computer screen before calming down.
Mumm-ra though, was not in a good mood whatsoever. He had yet to see his persona displayed in all his glory. Sure, they entered Mumm-Ra's Pyramid and Mummraa's Homepage, both great sites with the best episode list yet and gory fanfics galore, but that wasn't quite enough for the Ever-Living. There was an element missing, something he had on the tip of his tongue...
     They continued on to Lefty's Thundercat site next, where all the viewers broke out in cold sweat as they read the Weird fanfics stored there. Not even the Snarfs were spared, and Grune gave out a hearty laugh as he read some of the printed weird stories.
     Soon after they clicked on another site- NineTiger's Homepage, and Panthro was glad he brought out the printers when he did, for there were dozens of fanfics written by one fan. They had already burnt out one of the Thunderprinters, but these fanfics would be a challenge. Lion-o immediately took the task of printing out the fanfics, and soon pages flew out of the printers in all directions, the CheetahStylus2000 literally shooting out pages by the second.
     "Aren't you worried about all the paper we're using, Panthro?" Asked Pummyra.
     "Sssssscrew the treesss!" Shouted Slythe.
     "Yeah, Tree-hugger!" Echoed Tugmug.
     "If I remember right, it was YOU that was hugging trees, Tugmug!" She spat back.
     They continued on the websurfing spree, next entering Cheezey923's Thundercat site, where the Third Earth Inquirer soon became the talk of the party, and more fanfics were shown in their grandeur. The wacky sounds were also a hit amongst the group, WilyKit and WilyKat contibuting their own two-bits to the Captions section. Thundercat Endorsements, Thundercats Drinking Game, art, and all sorts of goodies were found within the magnificent site. Cheetara, using her super speed ability, speed read most of Cheeezey's fanfics and in five minutes concluded that they all were definitley worth reading. They then followed the link list to LadyBast's Palace of Pleasure; Lion-o, Panthro, and Bengali enticed by the words "Palace of Pleasure". Tygra had fallen unconcious after having too much Berbil Brew, and therefore missed the rest of the sites. The Bubastis, Inner Sanctum, Pyramid Texts, Tomb Paintings, and Cat Scratchings- all were wonders of the world to the Thundercats. WilyKit began reading one of her fanfics labled "I Love Little Kitty" Upon finishing it she was speechless.
     "Hey, whats that you're reading there, Kit?" WilyKat tapped her shoulder.
     "Umm..." Kit hid the paper behind her back before answering WilyKat. "Just the episode list."
     "Tell me when you're finished with it, okay?"
     "Sure." As he left she let out a sigh of relief. "When Vultureman flies without his machine." She whispered to herself, stuffing the fanfic into an empty pellet. She put the pellet in a pocket and patted it gingerly; she liked this fanfic, as unnerving as it was.

     Mumm-ra was furious, no fan had one page solely on him. Thundercats, Mutants, Lunatacks, and even Snarfs had their own sites. There was a page all about Grune, of all people- he thought to himself. Ancient Spirits of Evil, what about me? I've got the magic, the body, the great character, so why hasn't anyone worshiped me yet? He was about to leave the room, when they had scrolled down to the Trade Routes.
     "STOP!!!" He shouted. "Go back up some!!!" Mumm-ra ordered Lion-o. Lion-o complied, and had the mouse highlighted on Demonprist's Shrine of Mumm-Ra Worship. Mumm-ra then proceeded to kick Lion-o out of the chair and entered the site. There he was...in all his glory. Mumm-ra had finally found someone who loved him as much as himself. Loser of the Week gave out opinions on Thundercats, Mutants, Snarfs, and Lunatacks alike, as if he was typing it himself. He almost wanted to cry- but he quickly reminded himself he was not in his sarcophagus dreaming...here, in this site, he was number one, he was king, he was supreme.

     All too soon the guests had to leave, but Mumm-ra had to be pried from the chair- he was still locked to Demonprist's site. The party was over, and the computer was shut off, the vents puffing out huge plumes of smoke. The Thunderprinters were all cooling off, stacks of papers already stapled and collated with fanfics at the side. All in all, about a dozen trees from Unicorn Forest were sacrificed in the process.

     Lion-o thought to himself as he climbed into his bed. He and the others had seen that they would still live in the hearts of many fans... and....and...*yawn*...then we can screw Cartoon Network.....and then...then we....

     "I have a plan..." He mumbled before drifting off to sleep.
