The Mutants (briefly)

“Operation Thunder Cloud” was the Thunderian code name for the project re-dubbing a pirate stronghold “ Alpha Station”, after a serious catfight in outer space and the Rippled system in space were chosen as the reconstruction site. Alpha Station was a civilian space station as well as a battle station armed for combat. For nearly two years constant repairs and remolding every resource that they had been directed toward completion of the project. King Lion-O needed someone to remain and begin scanning the galaxy for Thunderian refugees. Since Claw has been reinstated it became their new headquarters of Operation. Henro served as project supervisor for the space station and soon turned it over to Kendo as he was awarded the Commander of the Alpha Station once it was refitted and completed. At the exact “north pole” of the station was a private observation chamber and command post, from which Kendo could oversee all Alpha Station operations.
