Chapter 3

The skies of the dark hemisphere were also troubled this day. The red and black swirling vortexes interrupted the flow of the purple sky around Snake Mountain.

"Where is Evil Lyn?" screamed Skeletor to his minions.

"Why Skeletor, my master, I am right here," Evil Lyn said as she peered out from a cove in the rocky walls of Snake Mountain.

"Evil Lyn, I'd hate to think that you are responsible somehow for the current situation in the sky."

"Oh mighty Skeletor, I have learned my lessons. No more trying to revive the dead from me."

"Your tongue best not be lying..."

"Are you sure the vortexes are what you think they are?"

"My knowledge in this subject, dear Evil Lyn, is vast. Have you not forgotten I studied the ways of evil? Have you not forgotten evil created Skeletor? I, however, will not have evil take over unless it is that of my own!"

Quickly Tri-Klops entered the room with a doomseeker. "Lord Skeletor, I bring news of a scout party."

"Why are you speaking? Show me the sights not words!"

Tri-Klops pushed a button on his gauntlet and the doomseeker produced a holographic screen in front of Skeletor. Its green shine showed He-Man, Man-At-Arms, and Zodak.

"Why would such powerful warriors as He-Man and Zodak be in a farming region?" Evil Lyn commented.

"What could those worms be up to?" Skeletor retorted as he mocked He-Man's presence on the planet.

"Perhaps you should go find out," Evil Lyn said under her breath as she rolled her eyes.

"What was that, Evil Lyn?" glared Skeletor.

"Oh nothing, great one. I just feel that we should investigate this. Perhaps they are close to finding the solution to these vortex showers."

"Very well then. Tri-Klops! Join Evil Lyn on a little journey. Find what they are looking for, turn it against them, and bring their almost lifeless bodies back to my stronghold so they can experience total damnation."
