Sea Kingdom with a Big Wet Problem
"Hmm, I must admit that I was not expecting Lord Hordak informed me of this Samurai Jack boy being a threat to the army but seeing him now I understand why." A scary woman said looking at her cauldron through her shadow spy.
This woman keeps concealed behind her red mask. She has long and flowing black hair that flows after her like a sinister shadow. She is cloaked in a dress colored red and dark maroon with pink details, which has a sleeve on her right arm but not on her left.
She is known as Shadow Weaver, Second-in-Command of the Horde Army.
"He's the same as Adora, as much potential or so much more than her when she becomes She-Ra, not to mention this pure light I sense within his soul. He could be very dangerous against us." Shadow Weaver stated.
"So, do you want me to crush the guy before bringing Adora back here by force?" A young girl asked.
She's a slender, tan-skinned person of feline origins with athlete body physics. She has angular features, such as a pointed chin, straight nose and slanted almond-shaped, heterochromatic eyes in the shades pale yellow (Left) and turquoise (Right). She features three freckles on her cheeks, soft curving dark eyebrows and a thin fiendish smile with fanged teeth. Due to her feline display and ancestry, she is depicted as a young woman with sharp claws on her hands and toes, small fangs, large, black, catlike ears, and horizontal markings on her arms and three on her back that resemble a tabby cat's stripes. She also sports wild, slicked back, spiked, grayish-brown hair held back behind a cat-inspired reddish-brown headpiece. She wears a two-toned orange leotard tank top over torn reddish-violet leggings that wrap around the foot, exposing her toes and heels. Additionally, she's seen in two belts, the thicker of the pair sporting the Horde symbol, and, as the show progresses, we see her sport the Force Captain pin on her shirt over her heart. Breasts sizes: C-cup.
"You can do whatever you want with him, Catra, but make sure you bring Adora back to me alive!" Shadow Weaver growled.
"Uh, didn't Hordak just order you to stop going after Adora?" Catra reminded.
"I'm sure Lord Hordak won't mind after Samurai Jack is killed since he has deem him a major threat just as She-Ra." Shadow Weaver stated.
Catra look into the cauldron seeing Jack himself and her first thought of him that the guy didn't seem much though she does like his fashion style with the black and the strange red symbol on his back. Also thinking about those strong, cute eyes of his with the sense of danger in them.
"(Wait, cute?)" Catra thought confused of why she was thinking like that.
"Well, I'll be going then and show you that I have what it takes to be a Force Captain." Catra said as she's about to walk away.
"Not so fast." Shadow Weaver said, stopping the cat girl from leaving.
"You won't be alone on this mission. You'll be joined by Force Captain Scorpia." Shadow Weaver said.
Catra heard heavy footsteps from behind and turns around seeing a tall figure looking a little frighten.
Scorpia has many of the physiological features of scorpions including a large stinger and pincers instead of hands. She has white hair which she wears with an undercut. She wears a Horde uniform with a Force Captain badge. Breasts sizes: H-cup.
"Kitty!" Scorpia excited as Catra is confuse of her senior Force Captain sounding all nice and suddenly got hold up by Scorpia's arms.
"Just so you know, I'm a hugger." Scorpia said and does a bone crushing hug to Catra as she pushes and broke free.
"Is this some kind of joke?" Catra asked, not expecting Force Captain to act like that.
"Scorpia will see that you are kept in line. Despite her… childish personality, she is formidable in combat." Shadow Weaver explained.
"Oh, we're gonna get along so well!" Scorpia smiled.
"Fine, so we're heading out to see, that mean…" Catra gulped.
"Yes, you'll be traveling by"
(Later at Sea)
"…Boat." Catra groaned of nervous being surrounded by the ocean.
"I LOVE boats! The wind in your hair, ocean on every side, miles and miles from the nearest dry land, watery death awaiting at the slightest misshape. That's what I call living!" Scorpia said breathing the sea in the air and Catra feeling worse now.
"Yeah, I'm really gonna need you to shut up." Catra groaned.
"Aw, you seasick?" Scorpia asked, Catra answer with her claws on the edge leaving marks.
Scorpia decided to help her by holding the cat girl in her arms, but that only makes Catra more annoyed of the friendly woman and ordered the three cadets (also the ones she knew since childhood along with Adora) to work on the ship.
"(I wonder if Adora is having trouble at sea right now)" Catra thought.
(With Adora and Friends)
"Haha! Enjoying the sea traveling so far, my friends?" A young man asked exciting.
He's a fair, well-built man with dark burgundy tousled hair (held back by a black headband) and a "naturally shiny" handlebar mustache. He wears a white shirt with a square collar and a triangular cutout, a red neckerchief, a blue jacket with gold accents, brown bracers with gold accents, dark grey pants, a brown belt with a holster and golden buckle and thigh-high cuffed leather boots with golden tips on the sole.
"I've always wanted to know what it's like to sail like a pirate, and now I know it's awesome!" Jack commented.
"Even though we're not really pirates, sailing it's still cool and you're one cool captain, Sea Hawk!" Bow agreed.
"Glad you all approve." Sea Hawk smirked.
"Except that he nearly wasted our time taking us the wrong direction and almost being sea monster food." Glimmer angered.
"I said I was sorry; I just wasn't sure if you lots weren't with the Horde or any bandits wanting to harm Princess Mermista." Sea Hawk explained.
"Which we understand and now you know we can be trustful friends." Jack pointed out.
"And I'm glad we are." Sea Hawk said putting his arm around Jack's shoulder and points in front. "Behold, the Sea Kingdom: Salineas!"
The four Rebellion friends look to where Sea Hawk is pointing at and became amaze of the beauty scenery as it is a watery realm with lightly blue sea-shell shaped buildings.
"Yeah, this view never gets old." Sea Hawk chuckled.
"So, is there anything we should know about Princess Mermista before we meet her?" Jack asked curious.
"She is a very fair maiden and cares about her kingdom, even though she doesn't exactly express on the outside and she may… hate me a bit." Sea Hawk explained nervous.
"Hate you?" Jack asked.
"You'll find that out later." Sea Hawk said as his ship port on land.
"Where is everybody?" Bow asked seeing there's no one around.
"Huh, there's usually more people around or at least some children playing." Sea Hawk concerned.
"Halt! Halt, I say!" A royal guard shouted and comes running down. "What's your business in Salineas?"
"We've come to speak with Princess Mermista." Glimmer answered.
"Just tell her Sea Hawk sent them, I'll be waiting in the boat." Sea Hawk said as he powerwalks back to his ship.
"Aren't you coming with us? I'm sure you can help talk with her." Jack wondered.
"Well, as I told you we're on a little bad term with each other at the moment and be warn that she can be a bit… difficult to talk with." Sea Hawk warned.
"Oh, come on, it's not like she's being a lazy royalty." Jack said.
(Salineas Throne Room)
"Ew, who let him back in here?" Princess Mermista asked annoyed.
Mermista is a dark-skinned girl with a thicker body type and deep teal hair with a pattern that resembles a wave, referencing her powers and kingdom. She wears a teal tracksuit with dark scales and a gold collar, gold and teal pauldrons, golden bracelets, golden ear cuffs, and gold and teal high-top sneakers. Breasts sizes: E-cup.
"I stand corrected." Jack surprised that he was wrong.
"Princess Mermista, you're looking very lovely today, and you have visitors!" Sea Hawk gestured to four as Jack waves at her.
"Yeah, and who are you?" Mermista asked.
"My name is Glimmer of Bright Moon. We've never met, but our parents fought in the Rebellion together." Glimmer mentioned.
"Oh yeah, I remember hearing about the old Princess Alliance. My dad said it was a total disaster." Mermista recalled.
"Now, Mermista, perhaps you should hear them out before refusing their offer. Maybe it could worth your time." Sea Hawk suggested.
"Worth more than you being annoying to me, then I guess I can talk to my new friend, Twinkle." Mermista shrugged.
"(Okay, now I'm seeing she does hate him.)" Jack thought.
"Bulter, can you bring us some hors d'oeuveres." Mermista ordered.
"Oh, you going to love them, they're delicious!" Sea Hawk informed.
"Everyone, but Sea Hawk." Mermista said, making Sea Hawk sad.
"Your guard is also your butler?" Bow asked.
"I'm a little understaffed right now. Everyone fled because the gate is falling apart or whatever." Mermista mentioned making the young Rebellion minus Jack gasps.
"Gate?" Jack confused.
"The Sea Gate, a giant barrier that protects Salineas from invaders and unwanted guests." Sea Hawk explained.
"Except you, apparently." Mermista rolled her eyes.
"It figures I would inherit a kingdom that's crumbling, but it's totally fine, I'm handing it." Mermista said.
"For the most parts, at least." Sea Hawk whispered to Jack.
"It's just kind of inconvenient, because the Horde won't stop attacking us." Mermista mentioned.
"Why is the gate falling apart?" Glimmer asked worry.
"I mean, who knows? But it's getting weaker every day, and if the Horde tries to attack us again, we're pretty much dead." Mermista said, showing a tiny look of concern.
"Nobody knows how to fix the gate, do they?" Jack guessed.
"I'm afraid so, but I can lift our spirits with a song!" Sea Hawk smiled and took a deep breath.
"NO SINGING!" Mermista yelled with a glare and made Sea Hawk stop before he could even start.
"He is SOOO annoying!" Mermista growled.
"What exactly did you do to make her so mad at you?" Bow asked.
"Well, sometime ago we used to date and it was good at first…" Sea Hawk explained nervous.
"Until you started screwing everything up like getting us kicked out of the Dolphin Social for challenging the doorman to a dual." Mermista pointed out.
"The man was mocking you, I had to defend your honor!" Sea Hawk stated.
"And that time you set our gondola on fire in the Tunnel of Love." Mermista added.
"Yeah, we got banned for that." Sea Hawk chuckled and look down in shame.
"I'm pretty sure Bow and Glimmer could do a better date if they went out." Jack blurted out.
"What? What makes you say that?" Glimmer and Bow asked in union. They look at each other and look away with their cheeks blushing of embarrassment.
Jack notice Adora is staring at the symbols on the wall like she's in a trance.
"You okay, Adora?" Jack asked as Glimmer walk up to them.
"This says something about the gate being connected to the Salineas's runestone, the gate must be failing because it's losing the connection to the power source." Adora said what she read.
"Do you think you can fix it?" Glimmer asked.
"I can try." Adora hoped she can pull this off.
"Look, Mermista, you need our help and we need yours. If Adora can repair your gate, will you consider joining us? Please?" Glimmer offered.
"I don't know, I guess." Mermista groaned, not wanting to deal with any major drama.
"Come now, Mermista, these four are trustworthy to come all the way out here to seek your help banding together against the Horde. Don't you want to prove to everyone that you are a strong leader who can protect your people, opportunity like this comes once in a lifetime." Sea Hawk pointed out.
"I really hate you when you talk that." Mermista glared as Sea Hawk smiles.
(Shore, Sea Hawk's Ship)
Sea Hawk is seen getting on his ship as he decided to leave Salineas since the young Rebellion warriors are going to help fix the Sea Gate.
"Leaving already?" Jack said sitting on the ship and spooking Sea Hawk.
"Great White Whale, do you have teleporting powers like Glitter?" Sea Hawk asked.
"No, I was just being silent." Jack answered.
"Where are you going?" Glimmer asked as she appeared behind Sea Hawk, being spooked again.
"I'd really appreciate it if you'd stop doing that." Sea Hawk begged.
"Are you leaving without us?" Glimmer asked again.
"It's for the best, I'm only getting in your way." Sea Hawk said sad.
"Is it because of what Mermista said about those dates you ruined?" Jack guessed.
"Yes, and that I'm also a lone fool. Where I'm from, I had friends, a crew. Every day an adventure more daring than the last. The fact that I kept setting my boats on fire was considered charming." Sea Hawk recalled his past about his crew and the adventures they used to go through.
"I think I can understand where you're going with this, back home I wasn't thinking special, just a normal guy trying to live his life to the fullest until I got thrown into the fight for the fate of the whole planet, but I chose to do so because I felt like it what I was meant to do." Jack explained as he looks at his reflection on his sword.
"That's nice, to me no one would take me seriously." Sea Hawk sighed.
"I can relate to that. I can't get anyone to take me seriously either." Glimmer admitted.
"You? But you're a princess." Sea Hawk surprised.
"Try being the daughter of an immortal Queen when your powers are sparkles." Glimmer said showing her sparkles from her hands.
"Glitter."
"Glimmer." Glimmer corrected the sailor.
"We just met, but I can tell you are a brave and powerful soul." Sea Hawk believed.
"He's right, you would get risk in helping others and fighting for what's right even if it means getting in trouble with your mom. No has to be perfect, just be the best person you can be and never give up no matter what." Jack encouraged.
"Could've said it better myself, anyone underestimate you will surely live to regret it." Sea Hawk added.
"Thanks, you guys." Glimmer giggled, feeling cheer up.
"And you know what, Sea Hawk, you still have friends and a crew. Reporting for duty, Captain." Glimmer saluted to Sea Hawk.
"I'm ready for daring adventures!" Jack saluted too.
This made Sea Hawk very happy that he finally found true friends beside Mermista and hope they're newly forged bonds will be stronger than ever.
"So, you have a crush on Bow?" Sea Hawk teased as he recalls Jack saying something about the two earlier.
"A crush? No, no, no, no, no, we're just friends!" Glimmer pointed out with her cheeks blushing again.
Before Sea Hawk could say anything else, they heard an explosion close by and they turn toward the Sea Gate shock to see a ship attacking the giant gate, and that ship is a Horde ship.
"Adora!" Jack gasped.
KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!
Jack and the group have arrived to Salineas with the help of Sea Hawk to meet Princess Mermista to recruit her into the Princess Alliance, but only if Adora can fix the Sea Gate which is going to be a lot harder with Catra's squad attacking them.
I made Sea Hawk a little more mature than in the cartoon series knowing his mistakes and all. Now let see how Jack will make a good impression on the sea princess.
