The Search For Kansas

Chapter One

Although completely outnumbered, the Clan gathers to defend their borders.

The battle progresses badly for the Lost clan. They decide to make a run for it.

"We will have to regroup and try again another day" he says as he gives the order to retreat.

"My command ship will never

make it through this."

 

 

He tells Colonel Smith to take over the remainder of the battle fleet.

"Save as many of our forces as possible. Make sure you get back home to let them know we are greatly outnumbered."

"Good luck and Godspeed!"

 

 

 

As the fleets begins to depart, they see a great flash in the distance.

General Toto self-destructed rather than be captured.

His final message was faintly heard.

"Do not let politics sway you. We must fight to the bitter end. If we hesitate, we will be uterly destroyed."

 

 

Meanwhile back at home…..

The General Council has completed the deliberations concerning the war effort.

The Peace Party slightly outnumbers the War party. The final vote was 31 to 29 to discontinue the war.

We must search for a new home again. We must depart today.

"We cannot abandon our armada. Who will help them if we just leave?" asks Colonel Thomas.

The Council orders Thomas to find a new home for the Clan. "Leave at once on a quest for a new home. We will take care of the fleet."

Thomas launches into the great unknown. He only has a small piece of map handed down from his great Uncle Cosmo.

Cosmo was the greatest traveler of his time. He piloted a tiny scout ship that could move 12 leagues a day. It is rumored that he found Kansas before he died.

"This is what I am looking for…"

 

 

Only time will tell if the armada will return.

Will Thomas find Kansas? Will the Clan survive?

Stay tuned for Chapter Two.
