Episode 7: To The Past We Go

Part I

King Grayskull stood infront of his castle. His lion companion stood beside him. The two were fighting an enemy. The king fell to his knees. Infront of him stood Skeletor and his minions. Skeletor held up his Havok staff beside him laughing.

Veena rolled on to her back from her side. Looking up at the ceiling, her mind began to wonder. Skeletor. King Grayskull. At the same time. Or does it mean Adam? Slowly she sat up, the light blue blanket slide down. She placed her face into her hands. Why did I dream that? What does it mean? I know it means more than it seems to. Veena threw the covers off of her and walked toward the open doors leading to her balcony. The wind blew against her sleep-warmed skin. She stood looking out at the sea below her. The waves crashed against the rocks. That dream was like the last one. The one were King Grayskull was fighting those snake men things. And then that weird guy showed up. Veena kneeled beside the wall separating her from the fall to the rocks below. Sorceress. Mother, what does this dream mean?

Gwendolyn, newly crowned Queen of Morainia, stood beside the Sorceress of Grayskull. The two women stood inside the Castle's Library.

Gwendolyn glanced at her long time friend. "Teel-Na, something is wrong? Veena needs at least one of us."

The Sorceress looked at the room around her. "She has had a vision, but she isn't the only one."

Gwendolyn nodded. "You comfort both of them. I will continue to find a way." The Sorceress transformed into her falcon form and flew toward the Palace. Gwendolyn returned to the books to find away to help the Masters with the very battle Veena had seen. Gwendolyn looked up suddenly. Isn't the only one? Does that mean…..

As the dream held Veena it also held another. Adam awoke. He sat up and looked at Cringer sleeping soundly on the floor near the door. No another King Grayskull dream. But why was Skeletor there? Something is going on. Slowly and quietly he got out of his bed and walked toward his window. His opened window looked out toward the city surrounding the Palace. Now I wish my room faced the Sea. At least I could look at it and think about Veena instead of my dream. Adam closed his eyes. Why did I kiss her? I was happy she wasn't leaving, but why did I do it. He remembered when he pulled Veena into his lap and kissed her how she wrapped her arms around his shoulders and pulled him closer. She'd even kissed him back. I feel for her. But is it love? Adam looked out at the city as a falcon landed beside him. He glanced at it.

Prince Adam, I need to talk to you and Princess Veena.

Adam looked at the Sorceress. "I don't want to wake her up."

The falcon nodded. She's awake. She and you shared this vision as you did the other. Go to her. Then come to Grayskull. I will wait for you there.

The falcon flapped its wings and flew away. Adam stood watching it. Quickly he walked to his wardrobe. He dressed and woke Cringer. The green tiger shook his head, but followed his friend out of the room.

Veena was standing near the doors to her balcony when a soft knock came at her door. She bent and took the robe off of the chair of her vanity. Placing it around her she opened the door. Veena looked into Adam's blue eyes. What is it? Is Cringer all right?

The green tiger in question moved closer so Veena could see him. Veena looked at Cringer and Adam. What is it? The dream. Let me dress then I'll let you in. Adam nodded. Veena closed the door. Opening her wardrobe she pulled out a simple dress of ice blue. Smiling to herself she dressed.

Once she felt ready she opened the door. Adam and Cringer walked in. Cringer laid down near her bed while Adam sat at her vanity. Veena closed the door and turned to face him. "Adam, why are you here? What's going on?"

He couldn't look at her instead he looked at Cringer. "The Sorceress wants us to come to Grayskull." Veena walked closer to him. "I know there is more. Please, Adam."

Two weeks. Two weeks since he kissed me and now he doesn't look at me. It's like that kiss never happened. Adam looked at her.

He stood up. "Veena, do you regret me kissing you?" She walked up to him and took his right hand with hers. The two rings began to glow, but neither noticed.

"Adam, no. Actually I was waiting for you." Veena smiled. "I didn't know about you and Teela. But after you hugged me I wanted to kiss you, but I didn't."

Adam smiled. "We need to go."

The Sorceress stood inside the entrance to Castle Grayskull waiting. It would not take them long. The dreams are warnings. We knew this was coming but so soon. She looked out over the bridge. A large cat appeared with two riders appeared near the bridge. It slowly walked across the bridge and past her. The Sorceress flew past them toward to the throne room.

He-man helped Veena to dismount from Battlecat. Both looked around them. Veena glanced at He-man. I like him more as Adam. When he's He-man he isn't himself. She watched as the Sorceress flew into the room and stood in front of them.

The Sorceress looked at them. "I was wondering how long you would be."

Veena looked at her. "About the dream I had…"

The woman shook her head. "No, the dream you both had. This is the second time the two of you have shared a vision." She flew to the top of the pyramid. "I knew this was coming, but not so soon. Skeletor will find a way to travel to the past. He will face King Grayskull, but that is all the book say."

Veena and He-man looked at each. Veena stepped closer. "We have to stop him."

The Sorceress shook her head. "Your mother and I are looking for a time travel spell or a time portal to send you two help King Grayskull. We haven't found anything as of yet."

He-man walked toward Veena. "So what should we do for now?"

Gwendolyn slowly entered the throne room. "The two of you should return to the Palace. Prepare for a fight." She smiled at her daughter. "Your father doesn't know everything. Just enough." Veena nodded.

Gwendolyn watched her daughter and He-man leave.

The Sorceress came to stand behind her. "Gwen, did you find one?"

Gwendolyn turned to face her friend. "Yes, but I believe those two need sometime." She moved her head toward where they had exited. "They need time." Adam and Veena may be King and Queen Grayskull reincarnated, but they are still getting to know each other. "Unless those two speed things up, I will with Marlena's help push back the wedding. Those two need to feel as if it is their choice and forced on them."

The Sorceress nodded. "Agreed. My brother can be stubborn." A smile filled her face. "Of course so can his children." She flew to the top of the pyramid. "I must send word to Adora. They will need her. Beside she needs to come home for a while. She needs to meet Veena." Gwendolyn nodded and left her friend.

Inside Snake Mountain, Skeletor stood beside Evil-lyn looking into a time portal. It showed an Eternia before the Elders. The Overlord of Evil laughed to himself.

Evil-lyn watched as he walked away to his throne. "Skeletor, I don't understand."

He sat on his throne. "It's easy, my dear Evil-lyn. We attack a world without He-man. I found where the Elder gained their power. Take it. And return to rule."

Evil-lyn watched him. He seems sure of himself. I doubt it will be that easy. Gwendolyn is free. I can feel her. She will find a way to stop his plan. Evil-lyn stepped closer to the throne and watched with him the past.

Skeletor chuckled to himself. Soon I will have the Power of the Elders and I will rule Eternia.

King Moraius stood beside a column watching his daughter and Prince Adam sparing. He with a sword and she with her odd staff. So like her mother. But Gwen is right. Adam needs a strong queen. If what I've heard about him are true. Veena may be too good for him. The king watched as Veena knocked Adam off his feet. But Adam only laughed. Veena helped to his feet. The king smiled. They aren't sparing they're doing if for fun just like Gwen and me. Moraius looked to see his wife and friends come into the courtyard. He walked toward them.

The parents watched as their children stopped the play sparing and walked away. Marlena and Gwendolyn left the two kings alone.

Randor stood beside his friend. "I believe Adam and Veena are getting along well."

Moraius laughed. "Randor, are you trying to push up the wedding. We agreed to tell them at seventeen and then announce it on their eighteenth birthday."

Randor crossed his arms across his chest. "Marlena believes we should let them decide. She says that we should allow them to make the choice." He shook his head. "She reminded me how both you and I disobeyed our fathers and married for love."

Moraius nodded. "Gwen said the same thing. They're right. They should make the choice not us. At least they have a few weeks till their birthday."

The kingdoms of Eternia and Morainia celebrated the return of the lost Princesses. Veena stood beside Adam. She watched her parents laughing with his.

"Enjoying yourself, Veena?" Veena smirked at Adam.

"I hate this."

He smiled. "At least you get to meet Adora."

Veena's eyes widened. "She's here?"

Adam nodded and pointed to a blonde beauty talking to Duncan. "That's her." The beautiful girl smiled at him and then walked away. Toward Adam and Veena. She moved back as Adam hugged his twin.

After returning from Etheria, Adora was tired. She wanted to sleep, but her parents were throwing this party to welcome back the daughter of a friend as well as her so she went along. I am the princess so I must make appearances. She'd been talking to Duncan when she noticed Adam. He wasn't with Teela. The young woman beside him was beautiful. She stood watching him as she talked to Man-at-Arms. Who is she? Adora watched as her brother little attention to anyone else, but her. Saying good-bye to Duncan, she walked toward her brother. Adam hugged her and then pulled back. He introduced her to Princess Veena of Morainia. Then he dropped the bomb. Adora looked at her brother and then at the Princess. "You're betrothed to her."

Adam nodded. "Mother and Father want us to take our time. No wedding until we say so or not. It's up to us."

Adora looked at the Princess again. Veena was looking at her hands. Adora smiled. My brother does care about her. I may have been gone from here a long time, but I think I know my twin brother. Adora hugged Veena. She let go and looked into the confused blue eyes. "Sorry, I sounded like that."

Veena smiled back at her. "Don't worry. I understand. We're alike. Both raised on other worlds and then returning home."

Adora nodded and smiled. Adam did tell me her story earlier. "Yes we are."

Around the three, the party increased, but something crossed Veena's eyes. Adora didn't notice, but Adam did.

"Veena?"

Her eyes looked at him. "It's time. He's done it. Skeletor has gone into the past."
