CHAPTER 19.
A/N: There were great suggestions, especially about Teela, but no, it's not Teela or Catra. I hope you like the chapter!
'' Who are you talking about?" Adora asked.
'' Starchild. '' He-man simply replied.
'' Who? '' The princess exclaimed.
"You did not get to know her, for it was before you were found. At the time she was six and she must be about ten years old now." -He-man replied again.
'' But what does that have to do with it? '' The queen intervened.
Skeletor snapped his fingers and Trap-jaw appeared holding a girl.
"Let her go!" Marlena exclaimed angrily.
'' Only if Randor surrendered the kingdom. ''
"What if I do not deliver?" Randor asked. He did not intend to leave Starchild alone on the mountain of the serpent, but he could not simply surrender his kingdom.
"You're going to deliver." At the moment Skeletor said that, Evil-lyn cast the spell once more on Adora, this time hitting her. The princess fainted and disappeared.
"ADORA!" -All shouted.
"You have until sunrise, Randor." With that, the villains disappeared.
"No!" Marlena whispered as tears fell from her eyes. -''Not again...''
- '' We have to recover her and save Starchild! We can not leave them there.'' Teela said.
"Wait, we need a plan." Duncan exclaimed.
"We do not have time, Duncan! They are in danger! "- Randor replied pointing to where his daughter was.
"Your Majesty, I know how you feel, but Adora is no longer a baby. I'm sure she can fight whatever Skeletor has for her until we get to the mountain. '' Duncan tried to calm the king down.
Randor took a deep breath and nodded, realizing that his friend was right.
"Alright." He replied. '' Let's make this plan and leave. ''
Adora was having another vision while she was unconscious, but this time she knew it was a vision and not a dream.
'' Where am I now? '' The princess asked herself as another vision formed.
"Come, Mom!" A child ran through the corridors of the castle, past it directly and hiding behind one of the curtains.
Adora looked in the direction the child ran. The child was not more than two, that she was sure.
"I'll get you!" - One Adora a few years older ran after the child with a smile on her face and a younger woman of probably thirteen years following the princess. She stopped in front of the curtain and pretended to be looking, then pulled back the curtain and the child laughed. Adora of the vision took the child in her lap and exclaimed. "Come on, daddy's expecting us."
The thirteen-year-old girl exclaimed. "Come with your aunt a little!' '
"Look at the jealous aunt." The princess laughed.
Adora smiled at this sight then saw that it had begun to to blow, both she and her vision-self looked back and saw a shadow forming. Looking back at her self, Adora found herself handing the child over to the girl and telling her to run. After the two were out of sight, Adora drew her sword.
The Princess of Eternia woke up startled. She looked everywhere to try to identify where she was, to no avail, she got up and moaned with the dizziness that the sudden movement brought her and closed her eyes.
"Calm down." A child's voice spoke to her, and the princess felt two small hands on her left arm.
"Where, where are we?"
"On the mountain of the serpent." The girl answered.
Slowly the events of today went back to her and the princess got up slowly. Turning to the girl, the princess asked:
-''What's your name?''
"I'm known for the name Starchild, and you?"
::: Starchild, then this is the girl! We'd better get out of here.::: Remembering that her brother had said she had powers, she asked again.
"Do you have your powers?''
"No, something is interfering. '' -Starchild tried to call his powers, but there was no response from his magic.
Adora nodded thoughtfully. "I think ..." She turned her palm up and after a few seconds, her hand began to glow.
"You have powers !?" -Starshild exclaimed.
"Yes, and fortunately for us, they think I'm weak to use my powers." Adora answered and closed her hand when she heard footsteps in the corridor.
"She woke up." Evi-lyn's voice was heard.
Adora stepped in front of Starchild, who hugged her.
"What do you want?" Adora spoke in the tone of a force captain.
"This planet. And you're going to help me get what I want. ''Skeletor said as he appeared on the other side of the door.
"Never." The princess exclaimed.
"Do not worry, you will not need to move a finger about it. If your father does not deliver the kingdom until sunrise, you two going to pay the price." With that, the villain turned away.
"'Is it cowardly enough to threaten a child's life?'" Adora teased.
"I'm not just threatening her, but especially you." -Skeletor came out of the dungeon with his henchmen.
"What's going to happen?" The girl asked.
"Nothing will happen. I will not let it. ''
