A/N: still own nothing darn it

Chapter14

Adora again awoke, but this time she was glad to know she was on a sofa, she snapped up and looked around the room her eyes fell on the young woman who was still being guarded.

"What do you mean by this lie!" Randor shouted as he stepped towards the woman.

"Father wait." Adora said softly, she got up and walked over to the woman and looked into her eyes. "So it's really you?" Adora whispered.

The woman nodded. "Yes it's me, I traveled here just after you, I wanted to see what life had in store for the great Captain of the guard, you can imagine my surprise when she got to live in a royal palace, while you sent me to the mines as soon as I was old enough to walk."

The room gasped as they heard the exchange between the two woman. Adora took a deep breath. "I tried to find you after I was free from the Horde spell, they told me you had died, I swear." Adora sobbed as she cupped her daughter cheek. "I never wanted to send you there but it was that or turn you over to Weaver, I had enough pull with Hordak that he went with my plan instead of Weaver's, she was out raged she beat me for three days over your loss, but she wasn't told where you were sent, I made sure of that, I am so sorry dear child."

The woman looked into her mother's eyes and saw the truth. "You really was under a spell?" She whispered.

Adora nodded. "Yes the spell was made to force certain emotions to be brought forth, in my case anger and rage, there was no room for me to feel guilt and remorse while under that spell."

"Then why are you letting them send you to prison?"

Adora sighed. "It is still my actions that led to death and pain, I have to pay for that this is the only way, I am getting off quiet lucky, I will be out in ten years, and I hope with all my heart that you will be there to greet me when I walk out those doors."

The young woman looked at her for a long moment then took a deep breath. "I can't promise that but I'll try." she whispered. Adora nodded.

Adora turned to the guards. "Set her free now!" she demanded.

"Wait a moment!" Adam yelled, "She tried to kill you twice and now she says she's your daughter, what is going on?"

Adora nodded to the guards, who looked to the king, who looked to his wife, issue's with women was always her domain.

Marlena looked at the sorceress who had quietly entered, she gave the Queen a small nod. "Let her go!" Marlena said firmly. "Then I need the room cleared except for the young lady, Adora, Teela, and the sorceress." the men grumbled as they left the room.

Adora took her daughter by the hand and led her to the sofa, and then looked up. "Mother I want you to meet my daughter, Lenora."

Marlena sat down next to the two women. "It's my pleasure dear, even though you did try to kill Adora twice."

The young girl had the sense to look guilty. "I am sorry and I will except whatever punishment that you deem fitting."

Teela stepped forward. "How can you be Adora's daughter your like sixteen?"

"I can answer that." The sorceress said softly. "If you recall I told you that we had two memory's to see before this all took place?"

Marlena nodded. "Yes, but you only showed us one."

Teelena nodded. "The memory I failed to show you was after the dungeon, when Adora was 13 she became pregnant from that ordeal and she gave birth to Lenora, when the child was five, Adora and Weaver got into a huge battle over what to do with the child, Adora still had enough left in her to feel remorse and love, but the act she was forced to do next would push those emotions behind the wall the spell created, Weaver had planned to put the girl through everything that Adora went through, but as Adora stated she had so pleased Hordak that he allowed her to send the girl away in secret so that Weaver could never touch her, Weaver took out her anger on Adora, Hordak stopped her before she could kill her,... but the damage had been done both mentally and physically, as a result of her beatings Adora will never be able to bear children, that is also a guilt she must learn to live with."

Teelena knelt down next to her young charge who was sobbing. "You have succeeded my dear, all that you wished has come true, you can let go of the guilt and pain, your daughter is now safe and you will begin to pay for your crimes as you so wanted."

Adora held her hand and nodded as the tears rolled down her face.

Marlena sighed as she walked into her chambers.

"What in the accents is going on around here!" Randor shouted.

"Did the crowd calm down?" Marlena asked taking off her shoes.

Randor rolled his eyes. "Yes, Adam got them settled he managed to back our decision as well as show his support for Adora's release, that boy will make one hell of a king, so what's with this young woman."

Marlena sighed. "Sit down dear your in for a long story.

Randor sighed as his wife finished her story. "So now we have to put our granddaughter on trial?"

Marlena chuckled and rubbed his back. "No dear the charges have been dropped, and the sorceress is going to train her it seems she has a destiny waiting for her as well."

Randor groaned. "Great more danger, I need a vacation." He muttered.

"I am right behind you dear, Marlena said leaning back, let's get some rest we have a long day tomorrow, we have to send our daughter to jail."

Adora woke in the arms of her lover and snuggled deeper, she didn't want this day to start but she knew it would, and she would face it.

Hawk groaned. "No stay asleep it's still night." He said kissing her.

Adora smiled. "I wish." The two had stayed up late talking, he had understood about Lenora and said he would be there to be like a father to the girl while Adora was away, and then they had made love long into the early dawn.

"Come on love we have to get ready if you still want to go through with what we talked about."

Hawk rolled over and placed his body over Adora's. "Of course we're still doing it, I told you last night nothing is getting between us and I meant it." He whispered kissing her, she let him make love to her one last time prison could wait a little while longer.

Two hours later Adora stood before her family and friends saying her goodbyes, she looked at Glimmer and Bo. "I am sorry I'll miss your wedding."

Bo smiled. "You won't miss it, your father has agreed to marry us today and as Glimmer's mom is here and most of our friends we didn't want to wait."

Adora smiled. "I am honored, it will be a double wedding than, the room stopped dead as she spoke Adora held out her hand to Hawk and walked to her father, we want you to marry us today as well and when I get home we can have a proper wedding."

Randor gave his daughter a small smile. "It would give me no greater pleasure my dear."

After the happy couples were married they all gathered as Adora got ready to leave, it had been decided that the sorceress would take her to the prison just in case people decided to try and spring her on the road, Adora had a feeling her brother would be right with them, so she wanted to spare her parents two children in jail.

Marlena hugged her daughter one last time."We will be there on visiting days and on the day you walk out a free woman."

Adora nodded and stepped away and took the sorceress by the hand. "Ready my dear?" She whispered.

Adora looked at her family and then let her eyes rest on her daughter. "I'm ready." she whispered as she closed her eyes and disappeared with the woman who had helped set her free and stopped her from running scared.
