Chapter V: The Fall of Hordak
Hordak arrived back on Horde Alpha and was heading to his throne room assured that Earth would fall before Horde Prime. What he didn't know was that there was a stowaway aboard his ship. The two guards had brought Adam into Hordak's chamber. "So what have you to say for yourself now, O Great Defender of Eternia" The servant of Horde Prime said as he kicked the helpless prince. Hordak laughed "wait till Keldor hears this, that I, Hordak, the Ruthless Leader of the Evil Horde has defeated the one foe he could never beat even with all his magic, the great and powerful He-Man. " All the prince could is watch as Hordak gloated over him.
Teela walked along the halls, along the way Horde Troopers had tried to stop her, but she fought and defeated them all with energy that could only be described as an adrenaline rush. Finally, she reached Hordak's Chamber; two Troopers guarded it. She quickly overcome the Troopers and stole one of their lances and rushed in to rescue Adam. When she entered she found Hordak mercilessly tormenting Adam, the prince was near death. Finally after a moment Hordak stopped kicking the young prince and looked up at the intruder and and in feigned politeness "Welcome, Teela, Behold your once great prince, your Defender of Eternia, he now lies dying, and the only the choice you have is to surrender this world to Horde Prime" Teela looked at Hordak, no longer seeing him as a living being, but as a menace and a demon, and she was determined to rid not only Earth; not only Eternia; not only Etheria but the Universe of the scourge of Hordak. "You're wrong Hordak, there is another choice" she said with a slight smile. The answer caught Hordak off guard, years of being Prime's servant had conditioned him for the usual 'you won't get away this' and the ever rare 'we surrender, don't hurt us Hordak' but never 'there is another choice'. Hordak looked up at Teela and said "and what is that" he asked "This" was Teela's answer. Hordak saw her running towards him with a long lance, Hordak tried to zap her with his magic, but she was too quick, Hordak screamed more out of fear than of anger "NO!!!" It was too late, Teela had impaled on Hordak on the lance. "How does it feel to suffer?" she asked Hordak who was wailing in pain. Hordak was indeed suffering, but not only that he was dying. Blood issued from the wound making the Bat emblem of the Horde on his armor look freshly painted. Hordak looked like a mad dog, with blood was foaming out of his mouth. All the Ruthless Leader could do was gasp for air. Finally after sometime his eyes went from bright blood red, to brick red, to maroon and finally to black, after centuries of inspiring terror and fear the Dark Warlord and Ruthless Leader of the Evil Horde, known as Hordak was finally dead. Teela went over to Hordak's throne and found one of his daggers "Here's one for the Princess of Power" she said as decapitated Hordak's corpse, if Hordak was not dead already, he was now.
Back on the ground Bow and Glimmer were looking for Teela, "Where on Etheria did she go?" asked glimmer "I think the saying is 'where on Earth did she go' not Etheria" Bow said jokingly "This no time for humor Bow, we have to find Adam and Teela" Glimmer said looking at Bow as if he had broken something. Bow nodded and continued to search for their friends.
