Hello everyone. I come back with a new story. I hope you like it. This story is based on the 2000's show.
Chapter 1 : A new power ?
All had happen only a few days after the horrible attack from the snakes men. He-man had save the day like always but the cost of this victory is huge. No one in the palace is in the mood of joy, on the contrary. Even prince Adam had lost almost of his fun-loving face. Teela is worried for him. Never before she had see him so down. And she don't like it. Adam is now more a charge to her than the friend he used to be, but it don't means that she love to see him with sad eyes. She can't help herself but as soon as He-man had come she had forget all her dream about marrying Adam one day. No one can compete against the savior of Eternia, not even the prince.
This day when she wake up, Teela heard some maid say that she must be ashamed by the way she treat her friend. This fact had angered her. How does the maid critique the way she treat Adam ? She had all the right to tell him when he made a mistake. And she had the right to yell at him when he leave the battlefield. Adam is a very good fighter with a sword, she know this. He had win countless time against her in their spare session when they fight with swords. So she don't understand why he don't want to fight at her and He-man side. Plus, if she is so wrong why nor her father, nor king Randor had said anything to her about her yelling to Adam ? It's her duty to help him to see how wrong his way of life is, and if she had to belittle him in the process, she don't see anything wrong with it.
Teela leave her room in fury. Not only the maid had refuse to apologies about what she had said, but she had also swore that she don't have say anything to Teela except the "Good morning Captain". Teela had ask her what she think about the way she treat Adam and the maid had answer that it is not her business to think about it. But the maid had clearly not look into Teela's face when she had made this answer. Teela knows that the maid had lie to her but she can't have find any proof, so she had let the maid go.
Teela need a way to evacuate some stress. A smile reach her mouth when she see Adam coming to her way. What a better way to be stress less than to yell and made fun of him ? Adam is too easy going to be mad at her and she know it. This is actually the better way to her to feel good again. And after all, Adam deserve some yelling for his last run away. She won't be too hard to him but he need to understand that he had some duty and he can't escape at his fate as the future king of Eternia. He need someone to put some sens into him and Teela is willing to do the job.
Adam had stay still as long as Teela had lectured him. Nothing in his face had show any sadness about the fact that his ex-best friend made so much fun of him. Only his eyes had refuse to make contact with hers, but it is not the first time that he doing something like that. Each time his father or her yell at him, he had look at his feet. Like if he deserve their yelling. And this fact had not help with the anger the king and Teela felt for him. If he had yell at her, like he would have done two years ago, Teela would have feel better. But this non respondent Adam scare her. She don't know how to act with him when he let her belittle him like this in front of the guards. He had no shame and she regret that one day he will be her king. She don't want to obey to a King who don't know how to put her in her place. Sometime, like this one, Adam disgust her so much that she think she can hate him.
She leave him alone with a real feeling of disgust. She don't want to see him again this day. Suddenly she heard him say " At last it's finish ! Sometime i think i can hate her !". She turn around but found the spot where Adam was a minute ago empty. She ask the guards and they say that the prince had leave the place as soon as the captain had turn her back to him. The guard say also that the prince had leave without saying a word. Teela don't understand what happen to her. For the second time she had heard something that the others have not heard.
Her first thought is to go to her father to explain what happen to her, like she had done the first time she had some telepathie. The idea stun her. Can she have her telepathie back ? Is it possible ? Maybe. If she had this once, there is no way she can't have it again. She don't understand why this power had come to her again, but she don't think it's a so good idea to tell this to her father. He was scared the first time and she don't want to scare him again. After all, if this power had come again he can go away as easily. And she don't want to work alone because she know that the others would be afraid of her if they know that she can read their mind again. For now, she think that it's for the best if she keep this as a secret.
The whole day Teela had try to read the others mind but she can have succeed only a couple of time. One time with a guard who think that he wait impatiently to go to bed, and the other time with Cringer who think about finding something to eat. She is not pleased by her result, but she think that she is right about the fact that this power will go away soon. The first time she can have read everybody mind and now she can have read some thought of four people for the hundreds she had meet this day. She forget this thought when she heard the alarm. Skeletor had come back and it's time to fight him again.

Skeletor had come with his full force to attack the palace. He had think that after their battle with the snakes men, the masters would have been tired and are no match for his minions. But he was wrong as always. The battle was harder for the masters and He-man but in the end Skeletor had call a retreat. His last act before leaving the battlefield was to cast a spell to He-man. His minding was not to hurt the hero but to kill him. Fortunately, Skeletor had not take the time to do a good aim and the blast had miss He-man by only a few inch. Teela had look at the hero and had smile when she had seen that he was not hurt. But he seem so exhausted that he don't have return her smile. She understand that because she is also very tired. She can't let her eyes leave his sight as long as she can. She hope that one day she can she him outside of a battlefield.
Teela turn around to her father and smile at him. She know it's time to return to the palace. She come to the wind raider and let her mind drift of to the sleep when a thought hit her.
