Teela's secret Chapter 2 : Who is he ?, a he-man fanfic

Chapter 2 : Who is he ?

The thought Teela had heard before she succumb to the sleep can't have leave her head all the night. She don't know who had think something like this, she just know that the fact of someone who want so much to die had crush her heart. She don't know why, but as soon as she had heard that, it was like if her own heart had broke. The more she try to understand it, the more she is lost. Never before she had feel so much sorrow for someone she don't know who he is. She is angry with herself because if she don't have been so sleepy, she can have recognize the voice. She think she know the owner of the voice, but she is not capable of finding a face to the voice.

After a whole night without a rest sleep, Teela give over and leave her room. She don't want to heard again the maid thought. Deep in her heart she know she is unfair to Adam, but she is not the only one. The king and even her own father do the same with the young prince. Sometime, she dream that her life can be the same as it was before Adam turn sixteen and Skeletor escape. Life was so easy then. She had like the almost arrogant Adam. She wonder what had happen to him to change so much. She had lost her long life friend and she had found someone else she can love. Often she also wonder where He-man leave. She know so little about him. He always come when some danger appeared and after go away as soon as possible. How can she love someone when she see him only when there is a deadly situation ? Maybe it is just why she love him. He always come to rescue her and she is grateful. Can she have misunderstood her own feelings ? Is she really in love with He-man ? So much questions and no answers.

Her walk had lead her to Adam's room. She wonder why she had come here. She remember that Adam had think that he can hate her, so why coming to him ? She had no reason to knock at his door, but she found herself doing it. She regret her gesture almost immediately, but it is too late. The sight in front of her cut her breath. Never before she had see Adam so low. Deep sadness in his eyes and a look of plain in his face. She can't recognize him. What had happen to him ?

- I'm not late for my training captain.

The sorrow in his voice complete the picture. Just now Teela know only one thing. Adam is unhappy and she need to help him. But she don't know how, so she do the only thing she can think at this time. Surprisingly, it is not to yell at him, but instead she smile to him and told him that there is no practice today. What worried her the most is the fact that Adam don't return her smile. Never before he was so cold with her. Sure, she was hard with him but he had always come to her with a smile. Teela leave Adam alone and run to hide the fact that her tears fall freely.

In the garden Teela found a bench hidden and sit there. She need time to think about what had just happen. The only thing she is sure of is the fact that Adam is in pain and unhappy. Since when Adam had stop to smile at her ? Is it a month ago or for a longest time ? Was she such a bad friend to not have notice that the prince feel sad ? Is... is it possible.....Adam ? No ! It can't be ! There is no way that it was Adam who want so much to die. Is it so impossible ? just minutes ago she can't have read his mind. She had try but the pain and the sorrow deep inside his heart were too much for her. How can she have been so blind ? What can she do to help him ? Maybe her father know the answer, but she can't come to him to say this. Surely he want to know how she know that Adam feel such feelings and she is not ready to tell him that she had found her telepathic power again. She need to think about a way to made her father understand that Adam need his help without letting her secret escape her. Now she understand how hard it is to have to hide something important to her loved one. But she don't have any other solution. Something in her tell her that she can't let anyone know about her power this time, otherwise something drastic can happen to her. And for once she is ready to heard her inner voice.

In her castle the sorceress is watching her daughter. She think that her is something strange with the girl but she can't found out what it is. When she had become the sorceress of Grayskull she had lost almost all of her human feelings. Sure she love her daughter but it is not the same love that the queen feel about her son. The sorceress don't need to be disturbed by useless feelings. but sometime, like this, she regret to have give up for her feelings. She can't understand what happen in her daughter mind and heart. It's hard for her to not know her own blood but her destiny of the sorceress of Grayskull was so important to Eternia than the sacrifice of her daughter is a little thing in comparison. But maybe she can have her own daughter back with her soon. She really hope that Teela show some power soon. She never had any doubt about her daughter destiny. Like herself, one day, her daughter will become the sorceress of Grayskull. No one can stand to the path of this destiny, not even the prince. She need to tell Man-at-arm about the feelings the prince had for her daughter. If only Teela can show her power soon, a lot of worry would be spared for both of them.

In the palace, Teela had leave the garden without any answer. She come to her father office when she heard the king spoke with an angry voice to his son. She come near by Adam unnoticed by the king. She is ready to open her mouth when she heard Adam thought. " Please Elders, not her too." So she turn around without a word and leave Adam alone with his father. The surprise in the prince face is unmistakeably and Teela smile when she heard him think "Thank you". She know she can't do big things to made everyone happy, but if she can help Adam to escape from the depression he is in, she will be happy. She need time to think about what she had done with the beautiful relationship she once had with the prince. Maybe the thing can't be the same as before but she can improve her attitude. And maybe she can be again friend with Adam. That's just what she want for now.

Now she had some duty and after that she need to discuss with her father about the way almost of Adam's loved one treat him, including herself and her father. This is not a discussion she wait impatiently, but it need to be done. Her father can talk to the king after and made him see how much hard for his son he is. But even if her father don't want to do nothing, Teela swore to herself that she will help the prince no matter the cost. This is the less she can do after helping to put in in this state of depression. She is not proud of herself, and the worst is that she had needed to heard Adam think that he want to die to look at her way to treat the prince. She don't know if she can look at her face in a mirror without feeling disgust of herself, not soon at she promise to herself that she will change and be a better human being.

To be continued.
