A/N: Sorry for the delay of two days to post! I had to make several changes in this chapter (Detail: it was ready since November 17), but only now I was able to write in a way that I liked the result.

CHAPTER 16.

"Well, we came to the mystical mountains. What now? "Stepen asked.

'' The person looking for this one where you most visit on diplomatic trips. The mystic of the matter will be revealed. "Randor repeated the villain's words.

"Congratulations." They heard an approaching voice and looked in the direction to find Susan again. '' You have deciphered the riddle. ''

"And I imagine you have one more requirement," Miro exclaimed.

''Not yet. I just came to deliver the package. ''

''Package? What package? "Miro exclaimed and did not wait for the answer, considering that a portal opened and two masked men appeared with a man with blue skin.

"Keldor." Miro whispered.

"He will not be of more use to us. Oh, and before I forget, Adora is fine. But before another requirement. The scepter of power, until tomorrow's sunset. "She went back to the portal and the two men took Keldor halfway before returning. The portal closed behind them.

Miro wasted no time running up to Keldor.

'' I do not believe it. '' He kept talking as he hugged his son.

''The face. How is he with the face? "Stepen asked.

''I don't know. I just know I'm going to walk away a little. I need to think. "With that, Randor stepped away from the scene and sat on a rock, asking a question he had not thought of since Adam had found Adora.

'' Oh Adora. Where are you? "He looked up at the sky.

xxXXXxx;

As expected, the masked captured part of the population and among them, Catra and some guards. They had just come to a place that none of them recognized.

"Here, come in." One of the masked men exclaimed and pointed to a room and they all entered. There were several beds scattered around the room and everyone looked again at the masked ones.

'' At ease. '' The door closed, but they realized it was not locked.

"At ease?" Catra asked.

'' Who would say, they have good manners. '' Adam's voice sounded in her ear.

"I wonder where Adora is." She whispered.

''Adora? The Princess Adora? "A girl about eighteen years old listened and exclaimed. ''She's here?''

'' What do they want with her? '' A man asked, approaching. Soon they had approached and already knew that Adora was there.

"Oops." Catra winced.

'' At least we have more people to help now, '' Adam said again, looking tired. "It's going to be a long day ..." He sighed.

'' I'll get the popcorn. '' Teela's voice was heard.

"Do you mind if I go with you?" Lohni's voice followed her and judging by the silence on the communicator, they had left the room.

Adora continued to walk beside Caspian, her mind still trying to find out who he was, but since he always had the mask, she could not know his identity.

"Caspian," she exclaimed.

'' Yes? '' He asked with a little of what seemed to be hope in his voice.

'' You tell me you know me and I feel you are familiar, but how do I know that you do not intend to tell me who you are so soon ... ''

'' You want to ask me some things. Right? "He cut her off.

'' You seem to know me well. Yes, I would like to ask. ''

After a while he said.

''Then ask.''

'' How long have you known me? ''

'' Practically since your seven years. ''

"Seven?" She whispered and tried to remember, but something stopped her and she looked at him perplexed. '' You want me to remember you, but do not let me try! ''

'' You'll find out who I am over time. '' It was the mysterious answer.

'' Okay, another question. He hinted that you know my family. How long?''

''Some years. I know them less than I know you, but I will not say anything else. ''

Adora sighed. Those questions would not help! She was quiet all the way to a room.

''What is here?''

'' It's a place we can see anywhere. ''

''Anywhere?''

"Yes, similar to your father-in-law's magic compass. But more powerful. ''

''How do you know that?''

He was quiet.

'' And how do we control? '' She approached the center of the room.

"Basically by magic." He carried the Leandra's crown to his hands and handed it to Adora.

'' How did you get that crown? She's better guarded than the throne room. "Adora asked, startled.

"Your father handed me over. He does not know we're going to rescue Leandra, but he's doing everything to get you home. "

'' Why do I get the impression that you have not fulfilled your part of the agreement? '' She laughed at that. Of course he did not keep his promise, otherwise she'd be home right now.

''It was necessary. Otherwise you could not find Leandra." Before Adora said anything, he continued. ''So. Let's start at the beginning. ''

She frowned.

"Let's see what happened the day she disappeared." He explained.
