Chapter 39: Arrival

Meanwhile, back with Brittni…

Brittni had found a couple of fire extinguishers conveniently placed behind the Night Moon soldiers that had just raided the room.

"Kill them!" Void shouted as she pointed her sword at Brittni. Brittni in the meanwhile made a quick, yet calculated decision.

"Okay, if I duck and roll to the backward, I can pop off a shot at the extinguisher at the north wall, and then the one behind me. That might disorient them enough to have a fighting chance!" Brittni planned out in her mind. Right as Night Moon was about to fire upon her, Brittni took a few potshots at the extinguisher at the North entrance. Just as she expected, the extinguisher exploded, forcing a hefty amount of sodium chloride, to fog up the Northside. In addition, bits of metal flew from the extinguisher, further disorienting the Night Moon soldiers.

The ones coming from the East entrance began firing at Brittni. A few of their lasers managed to hit her armor as she was rolling, but her armor managed to stop the blasts. The extinguisher behind her, on the other hand, could not stop her blasts as she fired a laser into it, replicating what happened with the North entrance; though Brittni shielded herself from the metal. Soon, the room began filling up with the fog created from the blown-up extinguishers.

Meanwhile, the Horde soldiers upstairs began their firefight with Night Moon. Unfortunately, the combatants were in close proximity, and many of the Night Moon soldiers were wielding swords which lead to the quick slaughter of many of the Horde soldiers.

Frosta merely watched helplessly as the Horde soldiers were one by one getting killed. She shuddered for a few moments, thinking of what Glimmer would do. A few tears streamed down her eyes but she quickly wiped them away. Some Horde soldiers retreated close to her, continuing to fire as they backed towards the door opposite to Night Moon's entrance.

Frosta, using what little strength she had, got up on one knee and brandished her hands. She let out a low groan that evolved into a loud scream. Believing in herself, she forced ice to conjure from her hands, flowing past the Horde soldiers and freezing the Night Moon soldiers in place, successfully restraining them. The Horde looked back at Frosta and nodded. Frosta gave a thumbs up, then fell on her stomach. One of the Horde soldiers picked her up and moved her to the corner of the upstairs. After shooting the Night Moon soldiers upstairs, both sides below and up the stairs began taking potshots at each other. The lasers did nothing to illuminate the area, as the extinguisher contents began completely fogging up the area.

This was no trouble for Brittni, however. She had remembered where the soldiers had been placed, and so, unholstered her energy baton, and went to town. She first ran to the soldiers at the East entrance. The one closest to her received a big jolt of electricity in his neck. Another soldier noticed her and aimed his rifle, only for Brittni to smack it out of the way and stick her baton into his neck, electrocuting him. One of the soldiers close to the door unsheathed a sword and swung at Brittni, though missed, due to her being cloaked in the fog. She saw where the blade came from, however, and moved close to him, grabbing his neck and bashing his head against the wall. Although his helmet protected him somewhat, the strength in Brittni's power armor caused the thick wall to have a massive cranial imprint in it. Brittni then let the man fall to the ground to focus on the rest of the soldiers.

Between Brittni's quick maneuvering, and the Horde soldier's potshots, the remaining Night Moon soldiers were quickly dispatched. Despite Brittni's quick thinking, however, most of their team had been killed, being reduced to two soldiers and a wounded Frosta.

Brittni took a few moments to catch her breath. As the extinguisher fog dissipated, she looked around. One of the Horde soldiers was taking care of Frosta while the other joined her downstairs.

"Sorry, ma'am. We lost visual on the Night Moon leader... she seems to have just vanished." The Horde soldier indicated. Brittni sighed.

"Well... at least a few of us survived." Brittni groaned. The soldier nodded and Brittni added, looking up, "is Frosta okay?" The soldiers scratched the back of her neck.

"You're going to want to have a look at her, Nurse Brittni." The soldier indicated. Brittni nodded and ran up the stairs, gently pushing aside the other soldier. Upon taking a closer look at Frosta, Brittni noticed that there was an ever so slight strangulation wound upon Frosta's neck. This happened recently; as in, the last ten seconds. Something was fishy about this, but Brittni did not want to jump to conclusions just yet. She had to save Frosta.

"Frosta, hey, look at me. You're going to be fine." Brittni declared. Frosta coughed out a little more blood.

"If... If I don't..." Frosta began as she trembled, "tell... Tell Glimmer... I... I... I love her..." Frosta said as she silently sobbed. Brittni pulled out a dressing and began applying it to Frosta.

"You can tell her yourself..." Brittni declared as she smiled at Frosta. Frosta took great comfort in Brittni's smile and smiled back.

"Look…" Frosta began, "j...just leave me. You need to stop Void! She's going to open that portal!" Brittni assessed the situation. Frosta was right, Brittni needed to find Catra, Adora, and stop Night Moon. Nevertheless, Frosta did not realize just what Brittni was capable of. Brittni cleared her throat and laid her hands upon Frosta's head. Before Frosta had a chance to ask Brittni what she was doing, Brittni spoke in her reverse language.

"delaeh eb ot ydob siht dnammoc I ,roivaS eht fo eman eht nI!" Brittni spoke as the power surged through her hands and Frosta's wounds began closing. Frosta and the Horde soldiers gasped and widened their eyes at the rapid healing of Frosta's body.

"Wha?!...H... How did you do that?!" Frosta demanded as she switched glances between her closed wounds and Brittni.

"Frosta, it is such a long and convoluted story that Horde Prime will get here by the time I get to the ending. Let's just get to the portal." Brittni insisted as she helped Frosta up.

"Thanks…" Frosta said in gratitude, "okay, the portal is being built in this place called the 'Lunarium.' I'll take you to it. Let's go!" Frosta declared. And with that, the group of four took off towards the Portal. Frosta led them through the southern door atop the stairs.

As they walked in, they found themselves in another hallway. There was nothing particularly interesting about this hallway except something that made everyone gasp and tremble. Lying on the floor was a group of Horde soldiers bleeding out. Brittni quickly ran over to them to see if there were any survivors. She felt the pulse of three of them to no avail but rejoiced when she heard one leaning against a wall.

"Soldier! Are you alright?!" Brittni inquired. The soldier let out a chuckle as he coughed a little blood out.

"I've… been better…" The soldier said with a chuckle, "Night Moon... ambushed us. But... I… I can only... guess that this hall...way leads to the… portal…" The soldier choked out.

"Hang on, I'm gonna heal you. I-" Brittni began before the soldier exhaled his last breath and his head dropped. Brittni shuddered for a few moments, upset that she was unable to help but even angrier towards Night Moon for causing this. Brittni stood up and turned to her team.

"We need to stop them. Now." Brittni declared, boldly. Everyone nodded and continued on. As they moved through the remainder of the corridor, Brittni became more paranoid since the revelation of Void's ability to shapeshift. As they all walked along, Brittni took a particular step and felt something strange on the floor. She shuddered before putting her full weight on it then took a step back, and looked behind her shoulder.

"Something wrong, Brittni?" Frosta inquired, right behind Brittni. Brittni fully turned around and faced the two Horde soldiers. She eyed them both suspiciously.

"What… what's wrong, Nurse Brittni?" One of the soldiers inquired.

"Julie, take a step backward," Brittni commanded. Julie tilted her head in confusion, but nonetheless, took a step backward. The other Horde soldier, Eshleman switched glances between everyone. Brittni then looked to Eshleman, "Eshleman, take a step over here." Eshleman eyed her suspiciously under his helmet.

"What? Why?" Eshleman demanded.

"I'm the commanding officer and I gave you an order." Brittni calmly declared. Eshleman let out a groan.

"You're just a nurse! Why should I-" Eshleman began before being interrupted by Brittni.

"Because you're not really Eshleman, are you?" Brittni inquired. Eshleman trembled for a moment before letting out a low chuckle.

"I suppose nothing will ever get by you, Brittni…" Eshleman muttered. Then, quick as a flash, Eshleman grabbed hold of Julie and threw her towards Brittni and Frosta. Brittni quickly moved out of the way by hugging the wall, while Frosta took the brunt of Julie. Soon, both of them fell onto the step that Brittni previously had avoided. Once they fell on it, a trapdoor was sprung, and both of them fell into it, letting out frightened screams.

"Frosta! Julie!" Brittni yelled as she moved away from the wall and knelt at the trapdoor.

"Well…" Double Trouble began as they shapeshifted back into their Void persona, "I suppose you should go after them. After all, you wouldn't want them to be hurt, would you?" Brittni growled and picked herself up, lunging at Void. Brittni managed to tackle Void and cocked back her fist laying a right hook on the side of Void's head, avoiding the mask, and striking her dome. Void quickly shapeshifted into Double Trouble which caught Brittni off guard. Double Trouble then performed a rather disgusting and desperate stunt.

They actually spat in Brittni's face. Although Brittni was wearing her helmet, the spit that Double Trouble used was gunky enough to block Brittni's visor.

"Ergh!" Brittni shrieked. She then let out an oof as Double Trouble kicked her off. Brittni flew back a little ways away towards the trapdoor. Brittni slightly picked herself up but was standing dangerously close to the trapdoor. when Double Trouble quickly sprang into action and moved to Brittni. As Brittni struggled to keep balance, Double Trouble simply put their finger to Brittni's helmet and lightly pushed. No amount of flailing could stop her stumbling as Brittni tumbled backward and fell into the trapdoor. Double Trouble merely smirked as they waved goodbye to Brittni.

"...Goodbye, darling."

Meanwhile, Void reappears back at the portal construction...

Glimmer had been bound to a chair that looks as though it belonged in a dungeon. She continued to struggle against her bonds to no avail. Her wrists were cuffed to the chair's armrest and secured with some kind of energy restraints. Several electrodes had been hooked up to Glimmer's body, no doubt serving as conduits in order to power the portal. Entrapta was still rather close to Glimmer as she was working on the machine. Glimmer stopped her struggling for a moment to catch her breath then slowly turned her head; in shame, towards Entrapta.

"Entrapta… are you there…?" Glimmer inquired, hopefully. Entrapta stopped her blowtorch and pulled up her welding mask. She then turned to Glimmer with an absolutely blank face.

"There is no Entrapta. There is only Horde Prime. All hail Lord Prime." Entrapta said, hypnotically. Glimmer groaned.

"Entrapta! No, you're Entrapta! You're the technology master that absolutely adores robots and eats tiny food! You have to remember! Please, Entrapta!" Glimmer tried reasoning. Entrapta stared for a few moments and tilted her head a bit, indicating that to some degree, Entrapta was still in there.

"Entrapta…" Glimmer began, her lip quivering, "If… if you're in there, somewhere… I just want you to know I'm sorry. I'm sorry for invading your kingdom, kidnapping you, and stealing your plans... I'm so sorry for everything I've done to you." A few tears began streaming down Glimmer's eyes as she silently sobbed. Entrapta continued to gaze at Glimmer, showing hints of emotion. Amazingly, even her mouth started slowly curving into a smile. Entrapta was about to say something when she yelped in pain. Some kind of shock was delivered to her neck and her eyes once again turned blank.

"The portal must be completed. Lord Prime's arrival is imminent." Entrapta declared, once again under Void's control. Void opened the door to the chamber and everybody stood at attention. The only sounds were coming from the electrical relays and Glimmer struggling.

"So, I see you attempted to reason with Entrapta? It won't work, darling." Void said coldly as she approached Glimmer and cupped her chin in her hand. Glimmer tried to move her head away but Void maintained a firm hand, "Horde Prime is Eternal. He will be here." Void declared coldly. Glimmer wriggled her head away from Void's grasp and spat at her face. Void simply stood there and took it. She then began chuckling as she wiped away the spit from her mask.

"You know… that's one of the reasons I wear a mask." Void claimed. Cairus approached Void from behind.

"My lady, the construction of the portal is complete. It only needs to siphon the power from Glimmer and it will be functional." Cairus explained. Void gazed at the portal and grinned.

"Excellent, Cairus…" Void mused as she approached the portal and stroked one of the pylons, then turned her head to Cairus, "it's only a matter of time, Cairus. Make sure to keep the surrounding rooms secure. We cannot let this fail."

"Right away, ma'am." Cairus declared as he led a brigade of his soldiers out of the chamber into the hallway to set up defensive points. Void then motioned for Entrapta to man the siphoning device. Entrapta stumbled towards a lever and gripped it.

"No! Entrapta, please! This isn't you!" Glimmer begged as Entrapta gripped the lever. Entrapta turned her head to Glimmer and hesitated for a moment.

"My, my. You have quite the willpower, Entrapta." Void said as she walked over to her and put her hands over Entrapta's, "why don't I help you, love?" Void then tore the lever with all her might, beginning the siphoning of Glimmer's magic. Glimmer shrieked as the process began.

"Don't worry… in a few moments, you won't even remember this…"

Meanwhile, back at Brittni's and Frosta's predicament...

While Brittni was falling down, the weight of her armor pushed her faster and she turned to face her body downward. Soon, she fell fast enough that she was able to grab hold of Frosta's wrist while Frosta was holding Julie's wrist.

"I got you, Frosta! Don't worry!" Brittni declared as she extended her limbs until they pressed against the walls of the narrow passage. Mustering all the strength she had, Brittni held herself, Frosta, and Julie in place. All three girls were hyperventilating from this near-death experience.

"Thank you, Brittni!" Frosta said, gratefully.

"Seriously!" Julie chimed in.

"Don't thank me yet... I actually haven't planned anything past this point." Brittni admitted, "We could definitely use a hand... or two right about now." As though it were some kind of miraculous godsend, Brittni and Frosta heard some friendly voices coming from above.

"Be on the lookout, Catra, who knows what's in this room..." Adora muttered as they moved closer towards the trapdoor.

"Adora?! Adora, is that you?!" Brittni yelled from the trapdoor. A moment later, Brittni heard loud footsteps advancing towards the trapdoor. Suddenly, Brittni saw two familiar faces.

"Brittni?! Is that you?!" Adora inquired.

"Yes! Help us out!" Brittni yelled. Catra, despite the inappropriate circumstances, let out a chuckle. Brittni groaned, "you think this is funny?!"

"I mean, kinda. Yeah." Catra said, facetiously. Frosta let out an even louder groan.

"GET. US. OUTTA HERE!" Frosta commanded. Adora then transformed into She-Ra and changed her sword into a rope. Letting the rope down, Brittni grabbed hold, and the three were then brought out of the trapdoor. Once they were out, Brittni wrapped She-Ra in a hug.

"Thank you!" Brittni said as she hugged She-Ra. Brittni then looked up, "wow. I know I'm short, but you're REALLY dwarfing me right now." She-Ra giggled then looked at Frosta. Frosta's lip quivered.

"I... She-Ra... Adora. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for joining Night Moon and causing all this. I just-" Frosta began before being interrupted by Catra.

"Focus!" Catra snapped, "we need to find Night Moon! Let's go!" Everyone agreed and they all moved to the end of the hall. As they got closer, She-Ra turned her head to Frosta.

"I forgive you..." She-Ra whispered to Frosta. Frosta let a few tears out and smiled. As the group approached the door at the end of the hall, Brittni put her ear to the door, listening for what was in the next room.

"...It's quiet." Brittni observed. Frosta shrugged and was about to open the door when Brittni grabbed her wrist and added, "a little too quiet. I guarantee there's going to be some Night Moon soldiers in there."

"So, what's the plan?" She-Ra inquired. Brittni moved away from the door and put her hand to the lower part of her helmet. She looked around the room to search for other openings. Brittni grinned when she saw a vent grate right above the group.

"The vents... they should be able to lead us directly to the Lunarium." Brittni indicated as she pointed at the vent. She-Ra grabbed the grate opening and ripped it off. Brittni nodded, grabbed the grate, and pulled herself into the vent. Frosta did the same, as did Julie, then She-Ra.

"Oh, no... I am NOT getting into that." Catra quipped.

"Sure you are." She-Ra teased as she grabbed hold of Catra's wrist and pulled her up into the vent. Catra let out a shriek as she was pulled up then groaned. "Shhh..." She-Ra whispered. Catra hissed and rolled her eyes, then the group was on the move.

The vents were a tad narrow, so everyone had to be on all fours to move through it. As they were moving through it, three members of the group heard what was possibly the most adorable noise they had ever heard. Everyone turned their heads back to see Catra let out a sneeze.

"Oh, my gosh. Catra." Brittni began. Catra narrowed her eyes at everyone.

"...What?" Catra demanded in a huff.

"Your sneeze is so... cute!" She-Ra declared.

"What?!" Catra protested, "it's a sneeze! Sneezes aren't cute!"

"Yours is." Brittni accused, giggling.

"Oh, shut up and keep moving!" Catra commanded. As the group moved along, they heard chatter below. Brittni realized they were right above the chamber that was adjacent to the hallway they were just in. There was a grate on the floor of the vent so Brittni decided to look through it and take a peek.

Brittni was right about her intuition of people being in the chamber. Cairus had Red Armband and Night Moon soldiers armed to the teeth, posted at every corner of the chamber, both above a staircase and on the floor. Various pieces of furniture were flipped over to be used as cover. Brittni let out a sigh of relief. That relief was short-lived, however, as Catra spelled out their doom...

...With another sneeze.

Everyone in the vents turned back to see Catra holding her nose and mouth shut.

"Anybody else hear that adorable sneeze?" One of the Night Moon soldiers inquired. The rest of the Night Moon soldiers immediately mobilized, moving around trying to determine where they heard the sneeze. Brittni motioned for everyone to keep moving. Quietly, everybody continued to move through the vents. But this was all in vain when another soldier yelled.

"The vents! They're in the vents!" The soldier yelled out. Frosta reacted quickly. She put her hands to the vent and began injecting her magic into it, causing a barrier of ice to enshroud the vent in proximity to cover the team. A barrage of lasers began firing upon the ice-covered vent. The enchanted ice managed to block a great deal of the laser fire, but eventually, the lasers started going through.

"We're going to have to fight..." She-Ra determined. She looked to Brittni, "Brittni, we'll hold them off here. You get to the Lunarium." She-Ra commanded. Brittni shuddered for a moment then nodded.

"Be safe..." Brittni said. She-Ra then winked and swung her sword through the vent, leaving her an opening to jump out. She front-flipped out of the vent, acrobatically avoiding all the laser fire and dropped to the upstairs. When her feet landed on the upstairs, the ground quaked beneath her feet and those around her were blown away in a sonic boom. A couple of lasers were flying towards She-Ra but stopped mid-shot as they were frozen in place. She-Ra looked up to see Frosta winking at her, and jumping through the opening. Catra and Julie joined in the fray as well, firing a few potshots from their energy batons before jumping to the upstairs to claw at a few more Night Moon soldiers.

Brittni gazed at them for a few moments, almost hypnotized by their heroics. But this would have to wait, she turned away from the vent's opening and pushed towards the end in order to find the Lunarium. Soon, Brittni found a grate that led to the Lunarium. She approached it carefully and looked down into the chamber. She was around ten feet away from what appeared to be the portal. Brittni analyzed the portal: There was a rather large ring, around the size of a small airship supported by several pylons adhered to two large bases. Attached to the power conduits were a great number of electrodes. Brittni followed the trail of wires and realized they were attached to...

Glimmer?!

Brittni could see that Glimmer had been struggling and at that point she had been rendered unconscious.

"They must be sucking out her magic to power the portal..." Brittni surmised. Brittni then also noticed Entrapta pulling the lever that was powering the siphoning device. Brittni narrowed her eyes at Entrapta and thought, "Entrapta... what are you doing?!"

From the vents and apparently in the Lunarium, everybody could hear the commotion that was going on in the adjacent room. Void took an annoyance to this and expressed it, via yelling.

"Whatever's going on in the next room, fix it! We are so close to getting the portal to work! Go!" Void commanded. At her command, around half the guards ran to the next room to find out what was happening. Brittni took advantage of this distraction by readying her weapon. She noticed she was right above one of the guards and observed the rest. She counted around five other Night Moon guards plus Void. Each guard was posted at a semi-corner of the chamber with Void and one other guard near Entrapta and the portal.

Brittni then took action. She positioned herself right above the grate and kicked it open, causing it to fly right to the top of the Night Moons's head. He shrieked then groaned as he fell to the floor. Brittni then jumped down and aimed her laser pistol at the left corner, fired a shot, then aimed to the right and did the same. Brittni was careful not to aim for any particular vital spots, instead, attempting to incapacitate them instead of killing them. Both guards dropped and were screaming in pain, thus indicating that they were indeed still alive. Void growled at this situation.

"What does it take to kill you?!" Void demanded, "get her!" she shouted to the guards. The guard closest to Void brandished a sword at Brittni then ran towards her. Brittni fired a round at the charging ninja. The ninja swung his sword which caused Brittni's laser to deflect away. Brittni gasped at this action and readied herself for a sword swipe. The ninja swung at Brittni, but she held up her arm that was holding the pistol. The sword made contact with her armor but did not manage to pierce it. Brittni moved her arm forward, pushing the ninja and his sword away. She then aimed her pistol at his leg and fired a round into it. The ninja let out a scream and fell to his knees. Right as he fell, Brittni swung her leg, kicking his head, sending him flying towards the wall.

Right as Brittni was turning to face Void, the other guard approached Brittni, and swung his sword. At the very last second, Brittni shifted backward, but not without the sword leaving a minor cut on her cheek. The guard continued swinging, and Brittni attempted to dodge, but she lost her balance and fell backward. The guard then pointed his sword downward with the intent of plunging into Brittni's neck. She raised her pistol, but the guard kicked it out of her hand. Right as the blade was about to make contact with her chest, she grabbed it, holding it away from her chest. Brittni grunted and shrieked as the blade pressed ever closer to her chest.

The next move she made was a bit risky, but she was out of options. Using her right hand, she let go of the blade for a moment, losing the strength to keep it from plunging into her. Right before it pierced her armor, however, Brittni gripped the Night Moon's hand and twisted it. The guard writhed in pain as his grip loosened on the sword. Brittni then gripped the sword out of his hand and shoved the hilt end of it towards his face. The guard stumbled backward, off of Brittni, holding his nose as it bled out. Brittni then quickly scrambled to her feet, tackled the guard, and gave him a right hook to his head, knocking him out.

There was no time to celebrate victory, however, as Void joined in the action. With sword in hand, Void jumped up with the intention of plunging her sword into Brittni's skull. Brittni quickly jumped back, causing Void to instead stick her sword into her own soldier, killing him. Brittni shuddered at this action, showing her abhorrence.

"You… You just killed your own soldier!" Brittni accused.

"And yet, you refuse to kill anyone… really, it's your weakness. And that's why you won't WIN!" Void shouted as she began swinging her sword rapidly at Brittni. Brittni brandished the sword she had taken from the guard Void had just killed and attempted to defend herself. Void swung hard and swiftly at Brittni. Brittni began losing her balance again, and so, fell to the ground and rolled to the right, away from Void. Brittni was about to pick herself up when she suddenly felt hair begin to wrap around her wrist.

"What the-?!" Brittni protested as the sword was taken from her hand. She then felt more hair begin to wrap around her entire body and lifted her in the air. It was at that moment, Brittni noticed the purple. She turned to see Entrapta; her eyes glowing a neon purple. Brittni let out a gasp. "Oh, no… Entrapta! Let me down! What did Void do to you?!" Entrapta merely let out a little chuckle.

"Void showed me the truth about our lord… Horde Prime." Entrapta stated, hypnotically. Brittni struggled but could not shake herself out of Entrapta's hair. Void chuckled devilishly as she walked over to Brittni. Void cupped Brittni's chin in her hand and pulled off her own mask.

"Don't worry, darling… you should rejoice. You're going to be one of the first to witness Horde Prime in all his glory." Void jeered. As a quick afterthought, Void added, "or rather, I guess you'll be seeing him in all his glory... again." Brittni widened her eyes then glared at Void.

"What are you talking about? I didn't even know what Horde Prime was until a few weeks ago!" Brittni snapped.

"Oh, darling… you merely have forgotten who Horde Prime was. No matter. The portal is almost ready.

Void was correct. The portal had begun shimmering in the round pylons that manifested it. A bright green mass of energy circulated around the relays indicating that the portal was functioning. Mechanical and energy sounds began permeating the area. Glimmer looked as though all of her energy had been completely siphoned away. This entire situation looked rather grim.

"No...no!" Brittni screamed out. But her protests were in vain. The portal was functioning, and the doom of Etheria was about to commence.

Soon enough, a deep chuckle pervaded the chamber and suddenly a white boot stepped through the portal, followed by the rest of somebody. When in full view, Brittni stared in trepidation and awe at the being that stepped through the portal. This being had blue-gray skin, long bat-like ears, and a white face resembling a skull, very similar to Hordak. Unlike Hordak, the sclera in his eyes was a glowing, neon green, and had pupils. In addition to the two frontal eyes, there were two additional eyes that formed vertically on the right side. The interior of his mouth was noticeably green, with his teeth being neon-green also unlike Hordak's red teeth. In terms of wardrobe, Horde Prime wore a white-and-gray sleeveless robe with an exposed chest, dark gray narrow pants, and shoes with metal soles and toe caps. He had articulated metal claws on each index finger. Finally, emblazoned on his chest was a dark gray pattern resembling the center of the Horde insignia.

Brittni's lips quivered as she saw the rather large, intimidating being take a few steps into the room.

"Ah… Etheria. Well done, Double Trouble…" Horde Prime spoke in a voice eerily similar to Hordak's. He went over and pat Void on the head then turned his attention to Brittni, "so… it is true. This is Oracle's child?" Brittni gasped when he heard that.

"H...How do you know about Oracle?!" Brittni demanded.

"Oh, child…" Horde Prime began, "believe me, I know a great deal about Oracle…" Horde Prime let out a breathy chuckle as he stroked Brittni's cheek. Brittni maneuvered her head away and growled at Horde Prime. Horde Prime chuckled as he finished his last statement.

"After all… Oracle is my sister…"
