At the Eternia Theater, the lighting and structure were bright as ever from the sun itself. Many seats were set up, and the stage sat infront of the crowd of empty chairs, waiting for a show to begin.
Man E Faces and Ram man were introduce to the new guest. Ram man was a man built up mostly with silver and steel armor, exposing only to his face. Though he look strong, his intelligence however was more or less undeveloped, constantly ramming into things without a second thought. Man e Faces is made up of machine, having three faces; one face for normal, one face for monster, and one face for mechanical and machine. Both were eager to meet with them; the guest however were a bit weirded out by them ( still gettng used to this world ). They were accustom with the human and odd creature, but not them. They were made up of machine and such, looking much bigger than an average human.
"Everyone, this is Ram Man and Man e Faces", Teela introduce, two of them wave to them, "They're our ally's"
Ram Man bounces toward them, Yuka hiding behind Satoshi, "Hi everyone, I'm Ram Man, and I like to ram into things. I'm also a little clumsy, but uhhh, not too clumsy".
"Yes, Ram Man, they already know your name", Adam roll his eyes, knowing his own annoyance from Ram Man unable to cooperate his own wording.
"Uhhh, they did?" Ram Man asked, looking at prince Adam.
The two girls, Mayu and Seiko, chuckle a bit because of his child like pattern voice. This confuse Ram Man a bit, turning toward the girls, "Umm, what's funny?"
Seiko responded, "Nothing. I didn't really think for a tough and strong guy like you would act so...calm".
"Uhh, I am calm. Wait, am I calm?" Ram Man asked toward Teela, who seem quite amuse by how the two girls react toward Ram Man. After some chuckle remark, next was Man e Faces introduction, walking toward them and bowing like a gentlemen would do, "Greetings, I am Man e Faces. A famous actor and poet in this theater. I hope my appearance didn't scare you".
"Actually, it more or less gives me some weird, erotic tone", Yoshiki remark, getting his arm hit by Seiko, who saw him a bit mean, "What? I'm just being honest".
"A actor?" Yui was a suprise to expect him of being a actor, just by appearance.
"Of coarse, my dear lady", Man E Faces reveal, "I can change into any characters. An example".
Man E Faces switch his face into a more grotesque and green like reptile, snarling at them and freaking some out, especially Yuka; unlike the others, Yuka was still nervous and shy, unable to speak.
"Woah, how'd you-" Before Yoshiki can finish, Man E Faces switch again, this time looking more machine and technological, containing beeping noises and a slide shut and open view, "What is your command?"
"Uhhh...turn back to your normal face?" Yui requested, with Man E Faces switching to his normal face.
"So what'd you think?" Man E Faces asked.
"Weird, but kinda interesting", Mayu remark.
"Kinda freaky to me", Yoshiki arm crossed, "How'd you do all that?"
"It's a long story, but let just say He Man manage to save me, before I could've gone full berserk", Man E Faces pull out his hand for Mrs. Yui, blushing at his manners, "But Anyways, want to see more of my amazing act?"
"Well...I, uhhhh..."
Teela step in, feeling there's enough introduction, "Ahem, I don't mean to interrupt, but thanks for your demonstration, Man E Faces".
"Just doing my duty, Teela".
Adam yawn, beginning to felt more tired than ever, which Teela caught on, "Seriously Adam? Don't tell me you got bored that quickly".
"What? I'm a tiresome guy".
"More like laziness guy".
"Heheh, laziness, I get it", Ram Man get it, "Wait, I didn't get it".
"Wow, I never expect to see more tan and muscular men", Seiko commented, looking at Man E Faces, "I wonder what more in this world?" Seiko wonder, blushing and placing her palms on her cheeks, just thinking of the many odd and weird things added into this world.
Just then, Man at Arms came in and have some dire news, "Teela! I have some emergence news!"
"What is it, Dad?" Teela asked.
"Someone or some group was attacking a nearby village".
"What?"
"Yep, that's from what I heard". Man At Arms continue, "They said, a fire broke loose in the fields and there were lasers being shot. No one knew who started it, but they expected it to be a evil intention behind it".
"Evil, huh? then this must be the work of Skeletor".
"Wait, who's Skeletor?" Yui asked, overhearing their conversation; along with the other students, Man At Arms explain, "Skeletor is a vile being, known for bringing terror and destruction, just for greed and power".
"And I expect Skeletor to do those awful things right now", Teela added, being hot headed and wanting to rush at the scene and confront the menace himself.
"Now just wait a minute, what if it isn't Skeletor?" Orko asked, "What if it's someone else, beside Skeletor. Maybe the evil seed?"
"Nonsense, it couldn't be him", Man At Arms said, "We already defeated him long ago. Beside, even if he could return, there's no way he could've started those type of destruction. He's not the type to use anything related to technology".
While their commotion continue on, Satoshi look at his sister and then has a idea, "Hey guys! May me and my sister tag along?"
"Huh, Why?" Man At Arms asked.
"It just..." Satoshi explain, "Me and my sister had been through a lot and thought a little fresh air would help. You know, give us a little more comfort to this world".
"I'm not too certain", Man at arm said, "It may seem too dangerous for you to come with us. Beside, we don't know if this foe has any tricks up their sleeves. It's best to stay here, safe and away from danger".
"But-"
"I'm sorry, but we can't allow that".
Satoshi was a bit disappointed; He wanted to help his sister our, wanting to make her feel better. But knowing what they meant, he understood it, fully, "I...guess you right. I just thought maybe it could help my sister feel more happy here".
"Wait, maybe that kid could come along", Teela suggest, feeling somewhat bad for them, knowing how they been through, "They are our new guest. Plus, it could give them some idea of the outside world".
"Now teela, I-"
"Please, Man at arms", She begged, "He man could watch them over. He save them, didn't he?"
Man at arms think about it at this moment. Sure, it would be irresponsible to risk two innocent beings to be harm by any harmful foes. But he knew they would not survive this world, without knowing much about its enviroment. reluctantly, he said to Satoshi and Yuka, "Oh, Alright. you can tag along, but make sure to not storm off somewhere. It could be dangerous".
Satoshi was gladful to hear that, "Thanks Man at arms", He look at his sister, stilling tugging to his shirt, "You heard that, Yuka, We going to explore a bit".
"And I'm coming too", Orko added, floating toward Yuka.
"Great, now I can finally have something to think about without that weird, buzzing guy interrupting", Yoshiki sarcastically said, making Orko pretty annoyed, "Hey! who are you calling, buzzing guy?"
He man=
They rode through the open path, leading by the Attak Trak. The forest was lush green, containing an about of weird and odd plants that cover mostly the entire forest. Satoshi and Yuka were at awe at seeing it, haven't yet been through this place by their first arrivel here. Man at arms was the driver of it, alongside Orko and Ram man.
"We are close to our destination", Man at arms report.
"Phew, thank god, this ride is making me sick", Orko comment, making Yuka chuckle a bit; Swinging and eyes rolling around.
"Me too, I can't even feel my body working", Ram Man added.
"Well, that's because we are in a forest where only the strongest being could be sick", Man At Arms state, "Fortunatly, me and the siblings aren't affected by it".
"Strongest? Hey, I'm strong", Ram Man point out. They made it to s open green field. It was lush with green and yellow. The sky was blue, dim by the clouds. Forest surrounded this area; With lakes and rivers being a common appearance in this land, with the folks taking an opportunity to set up a new home. Huts and houses were set up, alongside markets center for many to give and own several items and such. At first, when seeing the sight of it, Satoshi didn't see anything particularly destroy, but at close examination, he can said another field, small one mind you, looking all burn up and almost dismay. He knew it wouldn't be much safe to roam around yet, so he let his sister tugged with him for the remaining of the day. They head toward where the field was attack and landed next to a destroy hut. Nothing was left, but dust and the mark of its once home of a humble farmer. There were people there and guards, investigating this attack. They all got out from the vehicle, with Ram Man, Yuka, and Orko looking quite shock by it, while Man At Arm kept his more serious and tough persona.
"Yikes, never expected this amount of damage", Orko remark, floating around on the mark.
"you tell me", Ram Man turn his attention to Yuka, still following with her brother, "Say, are you alright, madam?"
Yuka simpy nodded; tone down, and anxious. She was still, again, not ready to be comfortable with the world itself. The others, though a little doubtful and somewhat scare, seem to go along with it.
"Any reports?" Man At Arms asked one of the guard.
The guard simply replied, "No, we still haven't trace any evidence to an individual. It's like someone came here and shot invisible laser everywhere".
"Well then, there's the evidence", Orko said, and assume "This is could be Skeletor doing".
"Don't get too full of yourself, yet", Man At Arms told him, "We still need some hard evidence if we-"
"ORKO IS RIGHT, MAN AT ARMS" a voice was heard fro the forest, leaping out and revealing itself. It was He man on battle cat, roaring on this sight. Everyone was at awe, even to the new guest because now, this was their second time meeting him.
"He man! What a pleasant surprise to see you here", Man At Arms remark, approaching him.
"I suspect Skeletor henchmen's to do all this", He Man claim.
"It could be, He man", Man at arms then asked, "But why woud they attack? They got to have a reason of doing so".
"Maybe they did it out of boredom", Orko suggest.
"Or it could be for some sinister plan", He man rub his chin, and look down at the burn fields, "Man At Arms, tell the troops to keep patroling the area. We can't be certain if Skeletor forces will come back and strike us".
"Uhh, yes He man", Man at Arm did and soon, many of the troops roam around the area with their vehicles.
He man pounder about this. What was Skeletor doing? Could it be to set up somekind of trap, but for what? He crouch down and check the marks, seeing there isn't anything valuable except for crops. Even though, it would be too petty for Skeletor to do.
Yuka tug down Satoshi shirt, telling him, "Onii chan, I need to pee".
"what? Right now?" Satoshi asked, which Yuka nodded. He wasn't sure if it was safe for her to go in the forest and pee. So he asked Man at arms, "Hey Man at arms, can I allow my sister to pee somewhere in the forest?"
"Sure, but bring Orko with her", Man at arms request, "I don't think it's safe for her to pee alone, during these time".
"Alright then".
Orko appear next to Yuka, "Come on, little girl. You can always trust me to watch over you".
Yuka chuckle a bit, and they both made their way. Satoshi, a bit bored, wanting to be invovle in this matter. He approach Man at arms and asked, "Is there anything I could do?"
"Umm, no, there's nothing", Man at arms said, "Say, I do want to asked".
"Hm?"
"I was wondeing how your sister was doing?" Man at arms asked, "She seems a little better with Orko around".
"Heh, Yeah", Satoshi scratch his head, "I guess Orko kinda cheer her up a bit. Make her forget about...you know, what".
"I see".
In the forest, Yuka was walking alongside Orko, not wanting to stray away from the group. She look eveywhere for a perfect spot, until seeing a more, huger patch of bushes. She requested Orko, "I'm gonna go pee over there. Can you wait here, Please?"
"Don't worry, kid", Orko accept, "I'll look away and watch for any predator".
"Thanks you", Yuka go off into the bushes. Orko float around, whistling and not looking behind as he promise. Then, there was a scream!
"Aaaaahhhhhhhh!" Orko turn, calling out to her, both concern and worry, "Yuka! Yuka are you alright over There?!"
He fly over there to see something that made him gasp, "Jitsu and Trapjaw!"
That's right, Jitsu, the evil martial artist, and Trapjaw, wizard of magic, were there. Jitsu hold her by his arm, with his golden hand close to Yuka face, ready to slice if she try anything.
Orko knew it wasn't good, "Hey! Let her go!"
"Heheheh, it's the stupid sidekick", Jitsu pointed out.
"Or what? Little guy?" Trapjaw aim his laser canon, "Gonna shoot me with your laser toy".
"I'm warning you", Orko demanded, "Let her go or He man-"
Orko was struck! Not by Trapjaw, but Triclops zapping him at behind and knocking him out. Yuka was shock, her tears were unable to escape, and she fear for the worst. They all laugh after the demise of Orko.
"Hahahahaha, look at the burning wizard", Jitsu remark.
"Take her to Skeletor", Triclops order, looking down on Orko, "I'll finish the job".
"Hey, why can I finish him?" Trapjaw asked, "You get to have more fun than me".
"Because Skeletor need you two for bodygaurd", Triclops told him, "I'm just here to keep an eye out for any idiots that come across us, especially He man".
Trapjaw growl from his missed opportunity to kill Orko, mumbling while they leave.
After they left, Triclops look at Orko and was ready to shoot him through the head, with his eye ray. Orko regain conscious and hear the sound of lights glowing, ready to aim and fire. Quickly acknowleding that sound, he dodge, moving swiftly, and leap out of there. Triclops try to shoot at him, but missed. Even though he fail of killing him, it didn't matter. What matters more is for Skeletor plan.
Orko flew through the forest, until hiding behind a tree and panting, wondering what to do, "Those guys are up to something, and they got Yuka. I got to warn He man. I hope Yuka will be alright".
Back at the Eternia kingdom, at the theater; Man e faces was performing, practicing for another late night show, starring himself and some other stars. Mayu and Seiko watch on, sitting on the stair steps. They both admire the strange man acting and movement, seeing his true intention of performing an act infront of the crowd.
"Thee my soul is trap beneth my beast, what thou can I do in this ravish state?" Man E Faces said to himself, acting very poetic.
Seiko remark on Man e Faces acting, telling to Mayu, "I am kinda curious how he became this way. Like why does he chose acting. Clearly, he looks like he could be a superhero. A robot hero perhaps".
"Maybe he has more interest of it", Mayu told her.
Both the girl keep watching on Man e Faces, gesturing the girls if they want to be part of the practice, "Girls, would it be a pleasure to have someone play part of the fair maiden?"
Seiko blush and replied, "I...Uhh...guess so..."
"Are you sure about this?" Mayu asked.
"Come on, I really need to have some fun around here".
Seiko took the offer and Man e Faces pull her up. There, they practice. Miss Yui was there, leaning next to the entrance. Marlena enter, seeing the new guest getting along with the heros of Eternia.
She decide to struck a conversation with Yui, asking, "How are you and your students been doing?"
"Fine, really", Yui replied, "Though we are trying our best to get use to this place".
"I'm glad to hear that".
"One question I do want to asked. Is there an explaination for...ummm", Yui was distracted by Man e Faces body and such. For her first time meeting with him, she was a bit curious on how he look the way he look, considering the others look fairly normal to her sense.
"For Man e Faces look and body", Marlena answer, having the same thoughts as hers, "No, I'm also unsure why he look like this way. All I know he was once a lonely beast that turn good by He man help".
Still, this didn't bother Yui that much. She was glad her students were doing alright.
Man e Faces gestures were both dramatic, and romantic, holding out his hand to Seiko, "My lady, will you accept beast form, as I was once a man?"
Seiko smile and jump on him, hugging him tightly, "Yes! I accept it!"
"Woah, Heheheh, a bit over dramatic", Man e Faces remark.
"Not tooooo dramaric", Seiko said, still hugging him and somewhat, moaning. This made Man e Faces shiver up a bit, and made her let go.
"Alright...uhhh, let's take a break", Man e Faces told her, leaving the scene.
Seiko was way too deep into the script and ran after him, "Wait! Can we still at least finish this part! I'm very invested in it!"
"Oh dear", Mayu remark, facepalming herself, and going after her. This made Yui and Marlena chuckle.
Marlena then notice something was off, asking Yui, "Excuse me, but where's the other boy name, Yoshiki?"
"Yoshiki? Oh right, him", Yui replied, "I think I saw him leaning near a window in the hallway".
"How is he doing?"
"Uhh, not much", Yui said, "I try talking with him, but he doesn't seem to want it".
Marlena thought of something. she could feel Yui concern over the boy, and the fact the boy himself isn't well liking of this world, "Maybe I could ask Randor to speak with him".
"Are you sure?"
"I'm certain of it".
Yuka eyes awoke, at first seeing nothing, but blurring and dizzy. She was laying on a metal platform, placing her hand on the cold and chill floor. Finally, she manage to regain her sight, and what she saw was the face of evil himself. Skeletor!
She jump and back up behind a glass wall. Everything around the wall is made out of glass. She look up to see a light illuminating down at her. There, she saw herself trap inside somekind of tube, connected to a machine of some sort.
She was confuse, scare, and distress.
"Having a nice beauty sleep, madam?", Skeletor taunted, "I hope so because this could be your very last time of having a sleep like that".
"Who...who are you?" Yuka stutter, asking him. This made Skeletor laugh at the harmless girl.
"Me! I am Skeletor! The face of true evil!" Skeletor replied, pointing his staff at Merman, out of Trapjaw and Jitsu, "Merman! Check on Evil Lyn! She better make sure the potions are already been done!"
Merman did as command and left.
"What're we going to do, Skeletor?" Trapjaw asked.
"We'll wait until Evil Lyn return", Skeletor told them, "Once the potion is completed, we could use it on Triclops mechanism, and bring me knowledge on the secret of avoiding death itself!"
"And what does that has to do with me?" Yuka asked.
"Simple, you are the main ingredient. Now that I know about you and your lackey somehow escape death, I want to learn more and harness that power of yours! No longer I need to fear death. Instead, I'll overcome it!"
"But what would happen to me?!"
"That's an interesting question. If you die, then that fortunate. But if you survive, you'll be Stinkor slave".
This made Yuka whimper, now fearing what might to come, if He man doesn't arrive.
Of coarse, this made Trapjaw moan, "Awww, how come Stinkor get his own slave?"
Skeletor replied, "Because at least he has some value, unlike you!"
"Oh come on, that's not fair at all. Even Stinkor doesn't do much for value! He-" Trapjaw was interrupted by a bolt of energy zap at him.
"Enough!" Skeletor yelled, "The sooner Evil Lyn arrive, the better".
Outside the forest, Satoshi was standing there with a bit of uncertainty. He was unsure if he did the right thing to let his sister go in there alone. But he knew Orko would do something to protect her because he was a magician after all.
Man at Arms, meanwhile, was checking on his raydar device for any sinister activity, "Doesn't seem to be detecting anything around here. Either my device isn't working, and there isn't".
"Whatever the case, we aren't going anywhere until we found the culprit or any clues of it", He man said, approaching him.
Popping and almost giving Satoshi a heart attack, Orko appear from the forest; Panicking and panting, Orko approach He man and the others, shouting, "He man! He man! I got some urgent news! Yuka has been capture!"
"What?!" Satoshi gasp, now confuse and fill with first regret inside of him.
"Yuka has been capture?! By who?" Man at Arms demanded.
"One of Skeletor henchmen's!" Orko brought up.
"Skeletor", He man utter, "I should've known he would do such a thing".
"Who's Skeletor?!" Satoshi asked, "And what does it want from my sister?!"
"Skeletor is pure evil", He man replied, "I'm not sure why he kidnapped your sister, but something about it doesn't sound good".
"I'll contact the other masters", Man at Arms told He man, walking off.
As He man hop onto Cringer and ready to roam off, Satoshi stop him.
"I'm coming with you", Satoshi state, but He man didn't want a innocent citizen to tag along. Especially a innocent that has seen too much torture.
"No! You stay here", He man told him.
"What?!"
"It's too dangerous".
"But He man, my sister is capture?!" Satoshi said, "If I don't do anything, she'll end up..."
"Satoshi, it's best you leave this to me", He man replied, understanding what Satoshi was gonna say next, "I don't want you and your sister be harm in any way. I promise I will save your sister".
And with that, He man was off. Satoshi was left there. He wanted to save his sister, wanting to make up his mistake from last time. But even though he could just easiy just follow him, he know nothing about this world yet, nor he knows who's Skeletor. All he can do is wait and hope his sister was alright.
Skeletor was tapping his staff, waiting for Evil lyn to arrive with the potion. He look around, getting impatient at every moment, just by standing there. He decided to struck a conversation with Yuka, still afraid from seeing his face, "So tell me, do you fear me, more than death?"
Yuka didn't respond and remain still, unable to speak now to him.
"I presume that's a yes then, good", Skeletor said, "Any moment and now, you'll be perish, and no one! Not even He man, will save you!"
"Why...are you doing this?" Yuka mutter. Even though she's afraid, she want to understand the reason why he is acting like this way.
"Why? Simple!" Skeletor replied, finally relieve that she spoken a word, "If it wasn't for Randor being chosen as the throne on Eternia, I would've easily rule this planet, without any problem! It's unfortunate he was choosen; Because now, I want revenge on everyone, including He man himself!"
"Is that the problem?" Yuka asked, "Just pure jealousy?"
"Jealousy is a strong word", Skeletor told her, "I prefer it to be a mistake. A crumey mistake by them!"
"Well, well, if it isn't skull face and his lackeys", He man jokingly comment, with Skeletor and his goon turn to face He man, who was standing over them on a hill, with battle cat on his side. Yuka even saw him through the glass tube, pressing her hands on the glass and muttering, "He man"
"He man! Why you hunk of fool mind!" Skeletor turn and order his goons, "Jitsu! Trapjaw! Get rid of him! He cannot intervene our affair any longer!"
Battle cat roar and He man jump on it, riding him down the slope and meeting with two of Skeletor henchmen, Jitsu and Trapjaw. Both ready to pound He man. With Jitsu huge, golden hand out and Trapjaw gun ray ready, it seems like He man is outmatch.
"come on, He man, too scare to fight without your kitty cat?" Trapjaw taunt, making Jitsu and himself chuckle.
"Nope, but are you still scare of heights?" He man retorted.
"Huh? What does that-" Trapjaw, just Then, He man hop out of battle cat and grab both of them and swing them up into the sky, where they scream and fly up, until they fall down, dizzy and collapsing, showing no sign to get up or contine fighting him. He man was too much for them to handle. This frustrated Skeletor, but Yuka on the other hand was thrill. Finally, seeing someone coming to save the day, without the use of any violence. She hadn't felt like this way, until now.
"Those bumbling morons", Skeletor mutter, "Evil Lyn better return, soon".
He man fist was on his waist, he approach Skeletor, but not too close because Skeletor was holding the lever for Yuka demise.
"Give it up, Skeletor", He man demanded, "Your friends don't seem to want to play anymore. Let the child go and we can settle this like men".
"Don't come any closer, He man, or else little girlie here will get a dose of nice, cold drink of death", Skeletor warn.
What will He man do? How will He save Yuka from Skeletor evil grasp.
Before He man could think of any other way to stop him, ZAP! He was blasted by Evil Lyn from behind, giving him a surprise attack and knocking him out.
Battle Cat roar, but he was also no match against Evil Lyn blast from her staff. After they were out cold, Yuka shouted, "He man!"
"Hahahahahahaha! Fool! Even the muscle bound himself cannot resist my power", Evil Lyn remark.
Skeletor approach her, grateful to see her return, as well Stinkor, "Good Evil Lyn. Good. Now then, do you have the potion?"
She pulled out a glass bottle, containing a mysterious, purple liquid. This made Skeletor laugh, "Hahahahahahaha! Excellent Evil Lyn! Now my ever lasting life will be fullfill! Hahahahahahahahahaha!"
Back at the Eternia kingdom, Yoshiki was near the window, looking out at the land he is unknown to. His expression and thoughts were the same. Both odd and regret. Somewhat more regrettable, as he sigh to himself from what happen to him at the school.
His lonely and isolated tone was interrupted by King Randor, walking toward him to chat about his problem that Marlena and Miss Yui mention about.
"Hello Yoshiki", King Randor then asked, "Is there a problem you want to speak of? Your teacher seem quite worry about you".
Yoshiki try shrugging it off, "It's...it's nothing, alright. I just need some alone time".
"Are certain you want to talk?"
He struggle to replied, either he should or he should not, as the king waited there patiently, looking out in the distance, relax and calm. Yoshiki gave a sigh and respond, "Fine...it's about my friend back at home, Ayumi".
Yoshiki began explaining to him, turning Randor attention to him, "I'm not sure if I did the right thing or not. Back on Earth, me and Ayumi were given an opportunity to leave that hell hole. I decided to stay behind, while she return back and save everyone. It turns out, I still have feelings with her and I wanted to save her. At first, I thought I might die, stuck in that miserable school, knowing full well Ayumi is posdibly safe. I guess I didn't really expect me and the others to be transported here in this weird world".
"Yes, it is quite understandable, considerimg you and others aren't yet custom with here".
"What I'm trying to say, is..." Yoshiki continue, as he look out through the window again, "I'm...I'm not sure if Ayumi still remember me or not. She could possibly forgot about me, or else. I'm not even certain if she's alright. I just wish I could see her again, telling her I'm alright".
"Yoshiki, I understood your concern", Randor comment, "But have fate. I'm certain she know about your heroic action".
"Are you certain?"
"Wether it may seem true or not, I do highly believe so", Randor said, looking back at the window, "Just like I have fate on my boy, Adam".
"Adam?"
"Yes, I always wish my son was like me. All hard work and taking up the throne. Instead, he usually get He man to do the work. Not that I'm against or anything, it's just...most of the time, I just hope someday he knows I'm still proud of him, and I wish he would take responsibility of this kingdom".
Yoshiki somewhat feel with Randor. Both men had love ones not knowing about them or their true thoughts. Somehow, this made Him felt a bit better, after talking with him.
Yoshiki pat him on the back, "Hey, if what you said is true about my friend still believing what I did back there, I think your son does know about you personal thoughts".
"Really?" Randor asked, turning toward him, which Yoshiki nodded, "Hmm, that's...actually great. I'll be honest, this isn't the first time I ever discuss man to man feelings. The only time I ever discuss with was He man, though he usually and rarely speak with me in person sometime".
"Yeah, kinda think of it", Yoshiki wonder, "I'm kinda wondering where he usually go to?"
"Ah, he's usually somewhere off, helping the citizens and save Gray Skull", Randor replied, "But let us not think of it, rigtht now".
As they were getting somewhat along, they heard foot step, coming to them from the upstairs. It was Fisto, coming down for a task in a hurry. Randor stop him, seeing some concern in him, and asking, "What's going on, Fisto? Is there something the matter?"
"It's Skeletor, your majesty" Fisto replied, "He's up to something big".
He man has awoke from his forceful slumber. He regain his sight, seeing at first blur. Then, he saw it. Skeletor, Trapjaw, Jitsu, Triclops, Stinkor, Whiplash, and Evil Lyn, celebrating their plan working out. He man tried to move, but there was something wrong. He and Cringer are stuck by the trees branches themselves, which Evil Lyn put a spell on.
He move right to left, but no avail. As Triclops is finishing pouring the liquid inside a hatch of the machine, Skeletor notice He man and decided to taunt him, "Ah, He man. You are finally awake".
He man mutter, grudgingly and deep, "Skeletor..."
"Yes, it is I", Skeletor said, "But not for long. As I will be the ever living Skeletor myself. And you will do nothing to stop me!"
"I don't know what you are doing", He man remark, seeing Yuka still captive in the tube, "But you better not harm her or-!"
"Chill, He man", Skeletor approaches him, with his havoc staff, "Once the machine has enough liquid to be pour in, I will discover a way out of death and become death myself! Controlling my own fate! No longer I will be stab, drown, or trap. Now, I will roam on Eternia forever and ever, until every single good guys are dead! Hahahahahaha!"
"You a loser, Skeletor", He man retorted, "No matter how your plan succeed, they always backfire".
"Then let fate decide", Skeletor then turn toward Triclops, "Triclops! Is the machine ready?"
"Yes, lord Skeletor", Triclops replied, completing the machine and turning it on, creating some lights inside the tube, where Yuka is now afraid at what they're going to do on her.
"Ha, soon I will gain the girl knowledge once and for all!", Skeletor state.
But Evil Lyn isn't too sure of it, "Are you certain this will work? I have a feeling someone will stop us".
"Don't be a dolt, woman", Skeletor told her, offending her, "Of coarse it will work".
"Gggrrr, I gotta get out of these, fast", He man thought, "Otherwise, I'll be too late to save her".
Yuka has try knocking down the glass tube, with no success. She tried and tried, but there is no way out of it. Hitting it, no. Kicking, no. Every force she's giving it won't barge open.
Behind the bushes, Satoshi and Orko were hiding, figuring out a way to free them. Satoshi knew he can't handle them, as he still has yet to learn about the world itself. But his concern for his sister was too much. So he and Orko came here to rescue them, now knowing what Skeletor is up to.
"What're we going to do?" Satoshi asked, "I need to figure a way out to free my sister and He man without notice".
"Hmmm, maybe I could try using my magic tricks", Orko suggest.
"Orko, I'm pretty certain they don't look like the type for entertainment", Satoshi told him.
"No, that's not what I mean", Orko said, "I'm suggesting I coild use my tricks to distract them, while you go free He man, and then he'll free your sister".
"That...doesn't sound like a bad idea. Are sure it will work?"
"Trust me, I try this dozen of times", Orko state, "Sometime they work, and other time they don't".
"Alright then", Satoshi and Orko peak out and see the tube is switching to a more blue color than a yellow. The sound of the machine was producing a heat and humming noises, becoming a lot louder and louder. The interior was making Yuka almost weak like a puppy. She lay there, struggling to keep herself from closing her eyes. Struggling to prevent seeing the light.
Out of unexpecting turn of event, a huge explosive was happening behind them. Thet all turn and see smoke, fireworks, and fire! They were all puzzle by it, and as their attention was caught, Satoshi head toward He man, knowing he could easily free him and free his daughter.
He slowly made his way toward He man behind the bushes. When near him, He man notice, and Satoshi gesture him to, "Ssshhhh, Quite, I'm gonna try breaking you free".
"Hurry, I don't know how long that will hole-" Before He man could finish...
"You!" Skeletor yelled, pointing at Satoshi, who try to hide back in the bushes, but it was too late.
"Oh no!" Orko mutter, as he jump out from the bushes and try to fight against the evil forces of Skeletor!
"Get him, Whiplash! Get him!" Skeletor order him with his staff pointing at Satoshi, as he was using his bare hand to free He man loose, as the lizard himself chase after him.
Then, everything has haulted by the sound of, "STOP!"
They all glare at the sight of Teela, Man e Faces, Fisto, Ram Man, Man at Arms, and Buzz Off, all standing and ready to fight infront of them.
As if it wasn't good enough for Skeletor, Satoshi manage to break free of He man. He pulled out his sword and slice away the branches, which also free Battle Cat! Who roar from release.
"He man! You buffoon!" Skeletor shouted, as he and his forces were surrounded.
"Should've have call all your friends, Skeletor", He man retorted, as Satoshi head toward the machine to try freeing his sister, who watch on and still alive.
"Give up, Skeletor", Teela said, "Your surrounded".
"I think you are mistaken", Skeletor replied, "It is not me that is surrounded, it is yours!"
He point his staff and shot a thunder of blast at her, but she quickly dodge it, and everyone clashes in the fight.
Fisto vs Jitsu! With Jitsu hand swinging at him, which he duck down. Jitsu did it again, by a chop that only hit the ground, instead of him. Fisto was his turn, and smashes the evil karate man face himself, which causes a huge blow for him, laying there out of sight.
Ram man vs Whiplash! Ram man use his ramming action, as he was whip by the Whiplash himself! Thrown at a tree, Ram man shake it off and ram him again, this time it caught him. Sitting on a weak and now destroy Whiplash, but he was yet confuse if he had won, "Uhhh...did I win?"
Teela vs Evil Lyn! Evil Lyn uses her staff to glow a purple color, and strike her with the energy of it! Teela uses her staff too, this time it deflected back at her, causing her to be knock out. Teela remark, expecting it to be another hard battle, "Well, for a witch, you are losing grip on your magic".
Man e Faces vs Triclops! Triclops uses his ray from his eye and shot through Man e Faces, only for him to swiftly move away, and barge at him. He switches to his robot mode, and pick up Triclops, then toss it at a near by tree, hitting it!
Buzzoff vs Trapjaw! Trapjaw uses his ray gun to blast the flying bee himself off the chart. This does not work, as Buzzoff fly and doge every attack, and swoop by to carry him and drop him down on the floor.
Satoshi was at the machine, trying to figure out which lever and button is the one to free her, "Damn it, which one could it be?"
He decided to push and pull anything, which seem to work as the tube rise up and Yuka stood up, breathing the fresh air around her. Satoshi ran to her, hugging his sister and apologizing for leaving her alone, "Yuka! Yuka! Thank goodness your alright! I'm sorry I even left you alone!"
"It's okay, Onii Chan", Yuka said, "I'm still with you".
While he cry and hug her tight even further, Skeletor was disguested. He was clashing with He man by sword and sword way, and he see his plan now failing in front of him. He wasn't angry, he was furious! Absolute furious!
"no...NO! MY PLAN!" Skeletor shouted out of anger and rage, releasing his staff away from He man sword, and back away from He man himself.
"Your a loser, Skeletor!" He man state, "No matter how many time you'll succeed, it will always backfire you",
Skeletor grunted. His minion has back away as well, and they were now surrounded. Skeletor only resonse, "Backfire...He Heheheheh...I don't think you know the true meaning of it!"
Without expecting it, Skeletor staff aim at Satoshi and Yuka, and blast a energy bolt at them.
He man reaches out his hand, yelled, "No!"
But it was too late! Satoshi and Yuka shock expression and their cover was disappear by smoke. Skeletor laugh, and use his magic smoke to make him and his lacky disappear! No where to be seen.
Was Satoshi and Yuka dead? Did Skeletor actually do it? As the smoke is clear, Satoshi and Yuka are reveal to be...
Fine! With Satoshi releasing his hand from Yuka, and Yuka looking up to see Orko, who shield them with his magic. He was also alright too.
"Orko! Are you alright?!" He man asked, with their concern look for him.
Orko only gave a thumb up, looking very dizzy, "Totally fine".
At the kingdom of Eternia, on the balcony. Yoshiki, Mayu, Seiko, and Miss Yui gather there to meet with Satoshi and Yuka, after he and everyone return back home after the recent battle that happen. Satoshi has explain everything what happen, everything about Skeletor and evil forces that hide behind the trees. They were shock to hear it, feeling somewhat reassuring that he and Yuka are alright.
Even after the battle, they were somewhat concern. Now that a new evil is here, they may never found peace again.
"So that's how it happen", Seiko comment, "Are you both okay?"
"We've fine, Seiko", Satoshi replied, holding hands with Yuka, "Honest, we were thankfully save by Orko, of coarse".
"Well, I'm so glad you two are okay", Miss Yui remark, "Otherwise, I would've broke down crying, if the both of you were kill".
"Hey, Sensei", Satoshi assure her, "don't feel too bad. Without He man, we could've almost been killed. Or worst, Skeletor could've almost kill my sister".
"At least everyone is alright", Yoshiki said, as he crossed his arm, "Though we should better stick together, if what you mention of Skeletor, would ever attack one of us".
"That's a good idea", Mayu comment, with Cringer, Prince Adam, and Orko entering the scene.
"Hey guys, how's it hanging Satoshi and Yuka?" Adam asked him, approaching them, "Are you two feeling alright?"
"We're doing fine, thank you", Satoshi replied, as his sister hug him near his leg.
"I'm glad you two are alright", Cringer comment, "I would've be very unahappy that Skeletor would even harm a little girl".
"So you want to fight Skeletor face to face, if he try that again?" Orko taunt, floating around him.
"Well...I...uhhhh".
"Come on, you really want to, huh?"
"I guess...buuuut..." Cringer was having a difficult time answering that, since he's much of a pussy cat, than a savage one.
Then, when things seem peaceful, a voice was cried out by Teela, who ran toward them with urgent news, "Adam! Everyone! We have some trouble at the throne room!"
"What?! Why?" Adam demanded, but was pulled by Teela herself.
"There's no time to explain", Teela said, "Now come on!"
The others were surprise, what is happening that made Teela so urgent. They all follow her down the stairs, without question. They all wonder in their mind, what kind of danger is happening at the throne room? With them passing through the hallway, they ran and ran to see a flashing light coming at the throne room center. They all chases it, running quickly as expected. After they have enter the light, they see it. The only voice they can hear is, "Surprise!"
Everyone was amaze, except Teela, who was smiling under her face. Every member, every masters, and ever citizens were there to celebrate Cringer birthday. Randor, Marlena, Fisto, Man e Faces, Ram man, Buzz off, Meckaneck, Stratos, Man at Arms, Decker, Star Child, Gleedil, Moss man, The Widgets, Roboto, and much more are there with decorations all around the room, and a cake on a table. Tables are set up with every dishes serve, and a band was playing in the background. This made Cringer extremely happy to see his appreciation. Even if he was a scary cat, everyone always look up to him as a helper to them.
Everyone clap and sang for him, with the others surprise and thrill by the party that is set up.
"Is this for me?" Cringer asked, looking at everyone and approaching the giant, chocolate cake.
"Of coarse, Cringer", Adam replied, "It is your birthday, isn't it?"
"Wow, I can't believe this", Cringer said, "I...I have no words to say".
"Blow the candle, Cringer!" Orko floated around the cake, as he scoop one dip from the cake, "Make a wish, Cringer! I really, really, REALLY want to try this".
After Cringer blew it, everyone clapped and celebrated. The part was cheery and the new guests were having fun with the many people on Eternia. They struck talks about their world, and their likeness. Not only that, but the masters themselves express about their origin here on this land.
As they're celebrating, Adam was outside looking up at the night sky. He was standing out from the open corridor. He was wondering wether or not he did the right thing. He has save Satoshi and Yuka, but it was not he who did it. It was Orko, and he felt extrmely ashame he didn't manage to caught on Skeletor attack. However, he was glad they were alright, and seeing them enjoying with the citizens and natives of Eternia.
While looking up at the night sky, a unexpected guest appear next to him. The cosmic enforcer between good and evil, Zodiac. Adam turn and was stunned to see him, "Zodiac! I didn't expect you to appear here".
"I know what you feeling, Prince Adam", Zodiac comment, "A struggle between yourself and them".
"Look, it's just...", Adam knew what he meant by that, "I fail to predict Skeletor move. If Orko wasn't there, they would've die, and it would be my faiult for not saving them that time".
"Every action in general will happen unexpectedly", Zodiac state, "It is part of nature itself, to not show or predict the most powerful man of the universe what will happen".
"I know", Adam replied, "I just wish I was more poweful enough to stop Skeletor".
"Power is not always useful", Zodiac told him, "It can be an main weapon for anyone to use without restriction. Even the forces of good cannot sometime use it for themselves".
"But Skeletor?"
"Skeletor may have the upper hand. But he has the same weakness as everyone else around us, including me. Remember that, Adam. Power isn't always the answer. Remember".
And with that, Zodiac is gone, disappearing behind the darkness. Adam was left there, pondering on what just happen. As he look, He stare back at the new guest, enjoying partying with everyone else in the kingdom. Orko was playing some magic trick, that somehow ruin Yoshiki hair and chases him around. Yuka was riding on Cringer, Mayu and Seiko were interested in hearing Man e Faces roleplay, and Yui was chatting with Man at Arms. This gave a sense of comfort with Adam, smiling to see everyone enjoying the day when peace has arrive.
At the dark area of the land, Snake Mountain stood with the head of a serpent pouring down a blood of lava down the stream. Inside, Skeletor was not too pleased. He stood on the throne, yelling at his throat from today disaster. Everyone was there to witness his tantrum as expected.
"Confounded! Fools! Despair! And Unworthy!" Skeletor yelled, and started blaming everyoe down udner him, "You idiots fail me once again! After what happen yesterday!"
"Us?! What did we do?" Trapjaw demanded, as well the others.
"Yeah, it's He man fault for-" Before Triclops could finish, Skeletor interfere with his loudness words.
"He man! He man has always been the blame for everything!" Skeletor shouted, "And if it wasn't for him, I could've easily know more about these new guests ability of cheating death!"
"Skeletor, maybe you should calm down", Evil Lyn suggest, "I believe we should wait until tomorrow we'll plan out something else".
Skeletor groan, and sat back down, with every goon relieve he hasn't shot any bolts at one of them.
Skeletor wonder, "Gggrrr, there's got to be a way to found out more about these...new guests".
Then, the magic globe on the table glow, which caught everyone attention. Everyone glare toward the globe, and Skeletor himself was intrigue, wondering why is it glowing a harsh light right now. Is it trying to show them something? Skeletor look down and see it. He see what appear to be two people in the forest. One was walking around, thinking, while the other one was seemingly sitting down on a log, and griping his head, like something he has a trouble thoughts in his head.
"Who are they?" Beastman asked Skeletor.
But his only respond was a chuckle, and a smirk, "It seems we have a new hope on our hands".
These people weren't just random citizens. No, these are new, and are related with the teacher and the students themselves. These two men are Yuuya Kizami and Sakutaro Morishige.
Woah! That took freaking forever to make. Man, I'm exhausted. Anyways, what a twist that was. How will Kizami and Morishige interact with the world of Eternia, and what is Skeletor next plan?
Now then, sorry if it took so long. I was dealing a lot of things, and a lot writing block. What's worst, I was trying to deal with online virtual school, which kinda hit a toll on me. However, I am back and still writing. If anyone see some mistake, I will fix it later on.
Until then, stay tune for more.
