CHAPTER 18
While her mother told her father about the plan, Adora and Susan went to meet Fisto. They needed reinforcement from the masters, and he was the only one around ... even if they first had to convince him of the truth.
As they approached the prison entrance, two guards barred the entrance and were startled when they saw Adora.
''Majesty...''
'' The queen wants to see the idiot who tried to attack her. Don't worry, she'll be safe with me. "Susan said, interrupting the two before they started asking questions.
They looked at each other and looked back at her. '' Are you sure, Captain? ''
'' The captain would not be here if she had not. Now, please, open the doors. "Adora answered for her.
The two looked at each other again and nodded as they stepped out of the front and opened the door that led to Fisto's cell in the rest of the hallway. "We'll be around if you need us."
Both women nodded and walked through the door.
Susan almost jumped when she heard the door close. Adora on the other hand, made a movement with her hand. Her powers would change the shoot to whatever she wanted, and the glass the guards would probably be looking at would look the same as the cameras.
"Look who came here ... to whom I owe the honor, majesty?" Fisto's voice echoed around the room. Adora started to move closer, but was stopped by Susan.
"It may be that he's on Adam's side ... in this reality, if you understand me ..." she whispered.
"Sorry?" Adora asked confused.
'' James created a story to keep Adam away from you. To sum it up, you were the heiress, Adam freaked out, put together a small rebellion and tried to take the throne from you, but James appeared and you both defeated him, thus becoming king and queen. In Fisto's mind, he was part of this rebellion. '
Adora nodded, beginning to understand a little more.
'' Why so many whispers? '' He asked again. For now his voice was melodious, like old friends meeting.
Adora took a deep breath and walked to face him, with only the bars separating them.
"That's better," he exclaimed. '' Your majesty did not answer. To whom do I owe the honor of your visit? '
"He-man."
"Who?" He asked, slightly confused.
'' A hero you met years ago. A hero you do not remember existence. '
'' If you say it, who am I to disagree. ''
Adora started to smile and raised an amused eyebrow. '' I am also a warrior, you know? I've used this method a lot to piss off. ''
He shrugged.
'' And what does this hero have to do with this moment? ''
'' He saved you once and you told him that you owed him a favor. Well, I'm charging this favor now. '
He just snorted and shook his head. '' Adam was right from the start ... you're crazy. Crazy actually. '
''No, I am not. Then you will forgive me ... '
'' Why do you say ... '' He stopped as the Adora hand shone stronger and brightness wrapped. ''What are you doing? Stop this!''
'' Not yet ... '' Adora concentrated even more, searching the memories for the moments she visited Eternia and Fisto was close by.
Little by little, Fisto's expression became less furious and became friendly for a while. At this moment Adora knew that his memories would finish returning on their own, so she dropped her hands and they immediately stopped shining.
"Will it work?" Susan asked after Fisto knelt because of the sudden return of her memories.
'' This has to work. ''
Susan opened the cell door and Adora approached slowly. "Fisto?" She called.
After a while staring at the floor, he took a breath and lifted his head. His gaze was once again the same friendly look as when Adora first met him. ''Princess?''
Adora smiled and held out her hand. '' It's good to see you back. ''
''What happened?''
"Caspian." The two answered. '' He got what he wanted. ''
He looked at Susan and recognized her, his face turning furious again. ''You were there. When everything changed. ''
"Now she's on our side." Adora interrupted and Susan complemented.
'' We don't have time to explain everything, but you need to trust me. ''
Con Trust is a very strong word. Let's see if you deserve my trust. "He replied.
'' We have no choice now, Fisto. We have to trust. "Adora commented. '' Come with us, then Adam explains to you the rest of the plan. ''
'' How do we go from here? ''
A purple portal opened beside them.
"So." Susan replied. Oh, and one more thing, Evil-lyn will be on the other side of the portal waiting for you. He's helping us, try not to get in trouble. ''
