Rising of the Masters of the Universe
ESKK: Well, the new chapter let's get started sorry for taking so long on it.
(Start Snake Mountain)
In the throne room of Skeletor the Dark Lord of Evil was seen meeting with Shadow Weaver as Tri-Clops was seen hovering about ready for deployment. It had been so long since this ancient machine was active and now after untold centuries it was back. Its directive was clear, and its purpose was given and that was to locate and acquire control of one of the three Cardinal Heroes.
"Well glad to see our new toy is up and running." Skeletor said as he saw Tri-Clops hovering around Shadow Weaver.
"Of course, Lord Skeletor it had taken a bit of doing but I managed to get it to work." Shadow Weaver said she gestured to Tri-Clops who used one of its claws to salute Skeletor. "He's ready to be deployed all that is needed is your command." Shadow Weaver said as she bowed to the Dark Lord.
"Then go and bring me back a Cardinal Hero." Skeletor said and thus Shadow Weaver nodded and opened a portal for herself and Tri-Clops. Once they were gone Skeletor relaxed in his throne and rubbed his hand on Panthor's head causing a small purr from the old war beast.
From the shadows Evil-Lynn heard the entire conversation as she smirked to this. She had long since suspected Shadow Weaver had her own motives for helping them. More so she had long since decided to overthrow Skeletor and horde Havoc for her own personal gain. Skeletor would prove to be a problem hence why she had Kronis and R'Quazz join her merry band of ghouls.
(Scene Break Castle Greyskull)
The Wagon arrived at the Gates of the ancient Castle as Naofumi and Raphtalia had a foreboding feeling from it. "Well, here it is Castle Greyskull." Ayato presented as the ancient castle towered before them.
"Looks Spooky." Filo said as she looked at the Castle in question.
"Well, if you want answers this is the place to go." Hajime said as Akane nodded to this.
"Honestly, I had the exact same reaction to this place." Daito said as the castle with the massive skull face was exceptionally creepy to the builder.
"I've never even been here until now so I can't exactly vouch." Akane said with a shrug as she stood there with the others.
The Shield Party stood before Castle Greyskull after a long journey from Melromarc. Ayato had of course alerted Naofumi of what they found and needless to say he was surprised by this since it would imply that the world, they were in was in fact four, but the Waves caused those four worlds to merge into one. This alone left a great deal of implications for them and after a bit of convincing they managed to talk Naofumi into coming to Castle Greyskull to speak with the Sorceress.
Naofumi didn't trust her for obvious reason, but Ayato did and that was good enough for him. So, as they approached the castle Naofumi saw that the draw bridge was up meaning they could not get in. "so how do we get inside?" Naofumi asked as Akane looked at the massive draw bridge.
"Ummm like this?" Ayato suggested holding his sword up and in turn nothing happened. At least nothing happened at first as suddenly the Sword of Power began to give of a glow. From there the eyes of the massive skull glowed in response before the drawbridge began to lower for the heroes much to their surprise.
"Well... what do you know it worked." Catra snipped as she saw the whole thing play out.
"We better start heading inside." Naofumi said and thus they began to enter the Castle.
(Later inside Castle Greyskull)
The group were now inside Greyskull as Yumi was stretching her legs after the long trip while Swift Wing and Cringer opted to take a nap. Looking around Naofumi noted that the Castle was a lot bigger on the inside then it had looked from the outside. "It's bigger on the inside." Naofumi noted aloud as Yumi nodded.
"Yeap just like a Tardis." Yumi said no doubt reverencing Doctor Who.
Just then the sound of wings was heard causing Naofumi and the rest of his party to look to the source. From there they the Sorceress of Greyskull Eldress descend down upon the group. "Welcome back Masters of the Universe and of course a proper welcome is in order for The Shield Hero." Sorceress greeted as she looked upon the returning and new arrivals to the ancient castle.
Naofumi gave her a skeptical look but none the less took the welcome with begrudged stride. After all, even though she did somewhat help his cousins and friends she was also the one responsible for them even being in this world in the first place. "Hey Eldress, sorry to bother you have we have some questions that popped up we were hoping you had the answers to." Ayato voiced as he wanted to get things moving along.
"I shall do what I can." Eldress said as she did have answers, but she also knew that there were some answers the group was not ready for yet.
"Thanks, and I'm not sure it might be a while since some of our questions involves stuff like this." Ayato said and in turn presented the robot they had found before to which Eldress was surprised by this.
"Old World Technology." She said surprised to see the group had found it. "You best get comfortable I fear this might be a long explanation." Eldress said and thus Naofumi had a sinking feeling that would be the case.
(Scene Break with Daito)
Daito had gone over to the Castles forge and had the robot on the table for him to tinker a bit. "Ok let's see what we're working with." Daito said as he was looking, the robot over to find out if he could activate it somehow. The robot sat on Daito's table now cleaned since Ayato did not want to lug around the filthy machine fresh out of the ruins. So, Daito in turn had to clean the thing on the way to Greyskull and this was the result of it.
He opened up the chest plate and in turn saw that there was a part missing from it at least so it seemed. Grabbing his tools, he began to feel around and in turn saw something amiss there before proceeding to pull something it. The object in question was broken as it seemed to be the base piece of the robot kind of like a lightbulb. "Huh will this is interesting." Daito said as he saw the piece and saw the socket part of it. "I think I've seen this before." Daito said and in turn a lightbulb went off in his head.
(Later)
Daito had arrived in the library's lower levels and there he had found a treasure chest. Opening the treasure chest, he began to rummage through it searching for something. "Come on I know I saw you in here before." Daito said as he looked for the part hidden inside. He soon found the part and grinned as he pulled it out. "AH HA! There you are!" He called out holding a gear like part in his hand before looking at the back of it. "A perfect match." Daito said as he saw he might be able to get the robot running soon.
Climbing back up the steps Daito arrived back at the massive library of Castle Greyskull he made his way over to the table he had moved his project over to. Once he got there Daito got to work on the robot once more ready to bring life back into it. "Ok little guy time to wake you up." Daito said as he had what he assumed was a replacement power source ready to use. "Now let's see what you can tell us about the Old-World Tech." Daito said as he then installed the gear like core into the machine's chest area.
After installing the part, the robot began to activate as it powered on, and the part began to spin in place similar to the gear it was made after. Its eyes flashed to life as it raised its head to look at Daito with a look of curiosity. "Are you the maker?" The robot asked while tilting his head to the side.
"No, the genius who did all your coding is probably long gone by now." Daito said as he finished up the installation while doing slight tinkering here and there. "You've been out of commission for a long time which chances today." Daito said and then closed the slot finishing the installation. "As Dr. Frankenstein once said, It's alive!" Daito said and in turn the robot began to hover about and beep frantically causing Daito to look concerned. "Um wait didn't Frankenstein's monster rampage when he said that?" Daito asked as he was worried that he might of, screwed up big time.
(Meanwhile with Ayato, Naofumi, and Akane)
"So let me get this straight the summoning ritual you were performing overlapped with the summoning ritual to summon the Cardinal Heroes?" Naofumi asked as the trio spoke with the Sorceress.
"Yes, when two summoning rituals overlap on each other because the targets were in the same spot the consequences can be unpredictable." Eldress explained as she spoke to the trio.
"Unpredictable how?" Akane asked as she was a bit worried.
"Worst case scenarios include being trapped between worlds, body parts being displaced, and landing in random locations other than where you had intended to land." Eldress listed off as Akane and Ayato both gulped over the concept of such things.
"So, in other words if we weren't together that day the summoning rituals would not have overlapped." Naofumi said with a tone suggesting he was not happy about it feeling somewhat responsible for it.
"These things happen it's rare but there is nothing we can do now." Eldress explained calmly as she stood before the heroes.
"Well, that's all well and good but something is bugging me, this world was apparently four different worlds at one point each with a Cardinal Weapon and the Waves of Catastrophe eventually combined them into one world." Akane said voicing her big questions. "Does that mean this world is eventually going to collide with another world and merge?" Akane asked as she looked to Eldress with concern.
"It depends on the result of the Final Wave." She explained and in turn brought up books on the relative information. "Yes, this world was once four separate worlds that the Waves of Catastrophe had forced into merging and if I were to make an assumption this world is connected to another being terrorized by the Waves." Eldress said and in turn this got the trio worried.
"How bad are we talking?" Naofumi asked as he was a bit concern as to how this would affect them.
"Considering Akane has a Thundercat as a slave I would assume it's bad." Eldress said which surprised Akane on this was.
"Wait Catra isn't a Demihuman?" Akane asked but before anything else could be explained a loud noise was heard from nearby.
As the crashing sounds got the group of four to stand up Daito was next heard from afar. "GUYS I SCREWED UP!" Daito called out and in turn the group began to get worried over what Daito did now.
(Later in the Library)
The group arrived to find that the robot they found was online flying about as the archive was on fire. Yumi, Hajime, Raphtalia, and the Filolials also arrived to find the damage that Daito had taken part in. "Daito what did you do!?" Yumi asked shocked over what they had arrived upon.
"Ok so after I fixed him, he acted up and set the library on fire. I tried to put it out, but I couldn't find a bucket to do that." Daito said as Eldress looked upon the scene with an annoyed aura around her.
"Those Books were first editions." Eldress said as she glared at the scene before her.
"Of ancient Greyskull text?" Raphtalia asked as she looked to Eldress.
"Of books." Eldress said as the robot was flying around reading one of the books.
"Hajime if you would please." Naofumi said and thus Hajime got on it by drawing the Vassal Staff for this.
"One rain shower, coming right up!" Hajime said as she raise her staff in the air and cast a wordless spells, an interesting ability Hajime discover with her Vassal staff, somehow the staff adopted the ability to cast spells without chanting the spells Like Hajime's masters form does, but only with low level spells at the moment as when she summon forth rain clouds above, she was made it rain down lightly on the fires, putting them out while also preventing much water damage to the library itself.
The robot who was floating around with a book in its hand as it seemed to be trying to read it as it said, "Oh it's raining, indoors? Error!"
It had then formed some sort of barrier above its head to prevent water from hitting him as Daito said, "Did I forget to mention that he thinks that he's a wizard of some sort."
"How rude I am not some wizard, I am Orko the great," The robot proclaim he is some wizard named Orko as Ayato soon asked, "Who or what exactly this Orko the great?"
Looking at the Eldress for answer but before she could answer the robot came up to his face and said, "You summon the greatest magician the world has ever known, and you don't even know who he is?"
Soon enough with the rain stopping, the robot then dropped his barrier and floated up into the air to a backdoor as it seemed he was trying to do something as he said, "Error! Spell words not found!"
Soon enough it blasted through the back door as he was just about ready to float out but not before turning to the group and said to them, "Clearly my talents are more well-deserved elsewhere." With his piece said Orko flew out with a blasting sound heard from the door he went through. Everyone looked at each other for a moment before they started running towards the back door and saw the robot floated down a road. While Orko was flying away, he was also seen blasting every tree on the way with each blast stronger than the last. With each blast made everyone cringed a bit until the Robot was gone from the area. It was that this moment Daito chose to speak as he soon said, "Does anyone want to check out the other tech or something?"
Everyone soon looks at his with disapprove look on their faces as he just steps away knowing this mess was his fault as he said, "Ok an inconvenient time and poor choice of words. I'm just going to…go."
(later)
The masters were back on their mount or the wagon, following Robot's trail which was mostly burnt or blasted trees and some other things with Naofumi seem annoyed by this as he said, "Tell me again why are we going after this crazy robot?"
"Well for one thing we brought it back to the castle to learn more about it only for it to think it was a wizard and starts blasting everything in sight," Akane said as Catra added as she said, "And if Mr. Genius here thought it was a good idea to bring the think back to life in the middle of a library which everything was flammable."
"It I didn't cause that fire and I did try to put it out, but seriously I didn't think it would act like that, I just try to fix the robot, not make it think it was some Blarking wizard or whatever!"
Hajime was reading a book before she slam it shut as it held the same symbol as that cog thing Daito put into the robot as she said, "If you had just taken a moment to look inside that truck you found below the library and read this book, you would've learned that the part you used was a legacy recording of the actual Orko the wizard's knowledge."
"And why was that in that crazy castle in the first place anyways?" Naofumi said as Hajime open up the book as she said while reading a few lines, "Well according to this Orko served the last king Greyskull as his court wizard which I'm guessing before many worlds merge together."
"If this robot think he is that Orko, then he may be looking for the king or a king in this situation," Ayato said as everyone knew the that the king of the land was Aultcray which everyone soon groin to this thought as his kingdom was the closes being at least a day away on foot, but at the speed he was going he could be there within a couple of hours as Naofumi said, "So what, I say let that robot go crazy, maybe he can be helping of blasting up that guy kingdom... or blow him up either way I'll be happy."
"Naofumi/Master!" the twins and Raphtalia said as they glare or in Raphtalia case scold Naofumi for that. This in turn caused the Shield Hero to sigh before he said, "Fine, but what could be the worst that could happen anyways... other than that robot blowing things up?"
"Other than capturing the robot, make him spill the beans of where he came from, who we are, maybe even take him apart and see what make him ticks and somehow replicate him, a lot of things really," Akane said as Yumi said, "Is anyone in this world smart enough to figure out how a robot works in the first place?"
"Don't know and don't want to find out," Hajime said as the thought of a fantasy world suddenly turn into a sci-fi world... well magic would be forgotten and maybe obsolete and she wasn't going to let magic be forgotten anytime soon as Catra said, "Great another complicated mission of saving our asses."
"Doesn't sound too far off for us," Yumi said as Ayato said, "All we have to do is find the little guy, power him down, or put down, or somehow convents him to come with us, which may not be easy."
"Well, if anything happened, I go into my master form, and should be able to learn everything about him if I put my focus on him and maybe set him to standby mode," Daito said as Ayato said, "Good enough, it's just a matter of catching up to him."
"Then let's hurry then," Akane said as everyone was going as fast as they could to reach the kingdom before it was too late.
(Later at Melromarc Capital)
In the market area as people were going about their business, when suddenly a woman starts yelling for some reason as she came up to the guard and said, "Guards! Guards! My clothing stand was ransacked!"
"And what was it that was taken?" one of the guards asked unaware of a floating robot wearing wizard robes with a red hat as well as he floated into the castle to meet with the king. But unknown to any of them Orko was not the only one to arrive for invisible to the naked eye Tri-Clops was seen hovering about in search of one of the Cardinal Heroes for Skeletor.
(inside)
The robot wizard Orko had entered the castle through an open balcony door that was left open for some reason, with empty armor filled the halls as Orko look around as he said, "So much has changed. How long was I asleep?"
Suddenly the two guard from the market area rush down the halls of the castle with their spears in hand as they pointed at the robot unaware of what he is other than some strange creature who stolen clothes from the market as one said, "So what's your excuse of robbing? Sleepwalking to steal?"
"Sleep-stealing?" the other guard said as he suggested to the first guard while he went on with the conversation, "Narcoleptic kleptomania?
"Narcoleptomania!" both guard said at the same time as they seem to have invented a new word or something, while not paying attention as Orko hover on by in between them as they soon take notice while rushing after him and cut him off as they pointed their spears at him again while the first guard said, "Suppose we'll have to add breaking and entering to the list, along with stealing those robes you little creature."
At that moment two more guards came in as they surround Orko as he said with an annoying tone in his voice, "As court magician, I demand you let me pass."
"Nice try creature, but there is no court magician, there was never such a thing! And if there was King Aultcray would never have a creature like you to be it!" the 2nd guard said as Orko started to glitch out as 3 dots going across his screen face is shown while shaking a bit while trying to take in the new data he just learned as he said, "Aultcray? Clearly it has been a while. Regardless, allow me to demonstrate the wonder and awe that is Orko the great!"
As Orko push one of the guard's spear away from him as he turn towards a suit of armor against the wall as he try to work his "Magic" the suit of armor glowed and shake, it hover off its stand, as the guards were freak out by such a thing, as they never seen such magic before as one said, "What's going on?"
"What in Melromarc?" another guard said as the "Magic" over the suit of armor suddenly stop while it collapse down in pieces, saddening the little robot as the guard started to laugh as one of them gave a smile not taking Orko seriously as he said, "Baddrah, be a pal and get someone from the slave market here to get this clearly loony slave out of here."
At that moment, Orko let out a pulse which push the guard back off of him into another guard as they both got knock to the ground, as their fellow guardsmen went over to help them as one said, "On guard, creature. We've got a fighter here."
"Ah!" Orko said as he came back to his senses as he looked down at his hands as he said, "It would seem, I'm just a little rusty, is all. Watch and be amazed!"
Orko soon tries again as he levitated the armor he try to control before with his "Magic" come back together but in all of the wrong places as after Orko was done he just made a 6 legged walking armor with all the guard prepared to face this strange for before them, but the 6 legged armor just walk away silly before it stood up on its feet with the boots of it were backwards and looking pretty awkward and very laughable as that what the guards did, they laugh.
Laughing so hard they could not control themselves which sadden Orko as no one was taking him seriously stopping his magic as the armor fell as he said, "Oh, I see."
He started hovering away as the guard still laughing as they didn't realize the little robot was leaving the guards where they were at as the guards didn't stop him at all as they just keep on laughing.
(The masters)
The masters arrived at the kingdom looking around as they hope the robot that Daito awoken wasn't that far, as they see what the situation and so far, it was all clam, which was surprising to the group as Ayato said, "You would think people should be freaking out by now or something?"
"Maybe the little guy didn't come here then?" Daito could only hope as Hajime was using her magic as she was somehow tracking the robot no doubt, she was tracking its core that Daito used for the robot as she said, "No he's here alright, the path of destruction we follow did lean here, and by my senses that robot is here... somewhere."
"But where would that thing go, or better yet has anyone seen it?" Naofumi asked as Catra said, "These people don't care about anything but themselves and will just about ignore anything that not like them."
"Let's split up then in groups, and first one to find the little robot, call out or send a signal," Ayato said as Yumi nodded and said, "Got it! Come on Sakura!"
Yumi said as she hoped on her bird and went off somewhere, while Hajime got on Yuki, Daito on Kou, Ayato and Akane on Cringer and swift wind respectfully, with Catra joining Akane on the horse while Naofumi got on Filo with Raphtalia joining him as they split up and search for the robot before something bad would happen, unaware to them something will happen.
(Orko)
The little robot hover around sulking unaware of the spear hero was coming around the corner as he said, "Where is Malty? We need to be going soon."
Soon enough the two meet each other at the connecting point of the halls and bump into each other as Motoyasu said, "Hey! Watch where you're going."
"*Sniff! sorry my good sir, I didn't see you there," Orko said as he was still crying a bit as Motoyasu saw the little robot as he thought he was some sort of being wearing armor, but when he heard him crying, he said, "What wrong with you little guy?"
"I am Orko the great, but yet no one seem to know, or I am, or believe me at all. I just don't know what to do," Orko said as Motoyasu said, "Is that all? Well sulking isn't going to get you anywhere, you need to be brave, wise, and above all let people how great you are with a show or something."
To Orko he was inspired by Motoyasu a bit as he said, "Y-your right, sulking isn't going to get me anywhere, I need to show who I am to the people but, how do I do that?"
"I don't knight maybe a show of might or... or," Motoyasu started to say as then a cute little maid walk on by as she turned towards his direction, giving a small giggle and wink to him distracting Motoyasu said, "Or just something."
"Like when I defeated the lumbering madness that was the Colossor?" Orko asked with Motoyasu wasn't paying attention to him and didn't hear what Orko said to him, as he said, "Yeah, sure do whatever it takes, excuse me a bit."
Soon enough Motoyasu was following after the maid, as normal he was following with his lower head than the one that really counts as Orko said, "He's right I must do whatever it takes, I must look deep within me and draw out as much magic as I can mustard!"
Orko soon balled up both of his hands as he grunted a bit as he tries to focus his "Magic" within him as a blue aura around him came forth before it turned into a purple color and his screen face seen to be glitching out big time.
(The masters)
Everyone soon regroup with each other as Ayato soon asked, "So did anyone have any luck on finding that robot?"
"He wasn't at the slave tent thankfully," Akane said as Raphtalia soon said, "He wasn't at the market."
"Nor at the library," Hajime said as Yumi spoken up said, "He wasn't at any bars or inn, but I did get into some fights. Someone thought I was a wench or something, dumbass."
"I look down every alleyway and I couldn't find him at all," Daito said as almost everyone groin as Naofumi said, "Where the heck is this robot at?"
"Citizens!" a loud and familiar voice ran out throughout the kingdom as the masters' eyes widen to this as the voice went on saying, "Gather round the greatest wizard the land has ever known!"
"Maybe that's a different wizard?" Daito said, hoping it wasn't as everyone soon look towards where the voice came from as Yumi said, "Nah. Same wizard."
"Dammit." Daito cursed as he saw the mischief Orko was up to now. But unaware to any of them Tri-Clops was hovering around the city looking for one of the Cardinal Heroes.
"Prepare to be amazed." Orko said as he hovered down to the streets. "Gather in awe!" Orko said as guards moved in to try and catch him opting for more to show up.
"That does not look good." Naofumi said as he realized just how big of a mess this was going to be.
"Hark the Colossor doth approach!" Orko called out while flying about as from within the castle several empty suits of armor began to hover out.
"I blame Wrench guy for this." Filo said as Daito sighed in defeat.
"I know." Daito said knowing he was in fact at fault for this developing disaster. What made it worse was that even the knights who had armor on were being dragged into Orko's spell which may turn out to be a major problem.
"This can't be good." Raphtalia voiced as they saw the armors start to combine to form... a massive monster made of steel.
The Colossor roared out and in turn Orko told the tale unaware of the danger he was putting people in. "With a lumbering terror, the Colossor towered over the city!" Orko called out as the Colossor stomped down with its foot and caused the entire ground to shake. As he stomped, he swung his arms about unaware of Tri-Clops hovering about trying to avoid the chaos going on.
The Masters meanwhile saw what was going on and thus Daito's mind got to work. "Okay, Orko's moving that armor with his tractor emitters, which we can overwork to force him into standby mode once that's done, we can shut him down repair the glitch and leave." Daito said and in turn everyone just looked at him in confusion for a moment. "Really?" He asked a bit annoyed that no one knew what he meant. "Hit him really-really hard repeatedly." Daito said and thus they all got the memo on what to do.
"Alright, Ayato Akane do the honors." Naofumi said taking command now.
"RIGHT!" The twins called out and thus pulled out their swords. "By the Power of Greyskull/For the Honor of Greyskull!" The Twins invoked raising their swords to the sky to summon forth Greyskulls power and in turn sharing it which began their transformations into the Masters of the Universe.
(Meanwhile to the battle)
"Only Orko the Great -error- can save you from this beast from beyond!" Orko called out as he controlled the creature. Just then debris was about to crash onto civilians only for a massive tower shield to stop it. Naofumi held his new shield up as he was now in his master form.
"Go!" Naofumi ordered and thus the people got out of the way. "Alright everyone scatter draw it's attention from the people!" Naofumi called out as he went for his role as the support member.
"Guys I caused this, so I need to fix this." Daito said as he was taking responsibility for his mistake. "You just need to keep the big guy busy I got the little guy!" Daito called out and with a bit of booster and some magic Daito charged at Orko. Of course, the monster saw it and thus slammed Man-At-Arms to the ground before he could stop it. Daito hit the ground hard and was out of it for a bit.
"Hey, lay off our smart idiot!" Akane called out in her She-Ra form ready to fight. The monster glared at her and thus got ready to attack her. "Uh-oh." Akane gasped realizing her mistake of getting its attention. The Monster slammed down its fist only for Naofumi to jump in and block the attack with his shield halting it in its tracks.
"Thanks cousin." Akane said and in turn the other Masters, plus the Filolials moved in to help.
Battle Cat was the first to move as he roared out and jumped onto the creature before clawing at it tearing through the steel. Next came the Filolials as they used their speed and numbers to attack the monster from varying locations and vanishing before it could attack them. Raphtalia then appeared using her near limitless number of blades to strike at the monster focusing on the ones best to use against magic and steel. The swords flew at the monster as Raphtalia sent the hovering blades at the beast Orko created.
Following it up was Catra as she swung her whip at the monster as the whip, she was using had a small mace at the end of it. Swinging it against her foe she had it held for fast and quick attack against it. But the metal monster roared and knocked Catra aside forcing her to grit her teeth and dig her claws into the ground to keep from going any further. Snarling the Demihuman cat first calmed herself and got back up before drawing out a second whip and cracking both weapons. Once she was ready, she began to swing both whips against her foe taking off bits and pieces of its form to bring it down.
One of those pieces managed to hit Tri-Clops causing him to fly off course to another location in the city. To be more specific Tri-Clops flew towards the less savory part of town. Shadow Weaver had borne witness to from among the panicked people fleeing. Cursing her luck, she snuck off to locate Tri-Clops and make sure he is able to complete his mission and capture one of the heroes.
After Catra did her bit Ram-Ma'am was seen charging in for the fight. "I got him!" Ram-Ma'am called out as she boosted her way over to Orko to bring him down. "I'll smash your stupid face in!" She roared only to yelp when she got knocked aside by a metal plate and sent off course.
"Rammy Combo now!" Hajime called out and thus Yumi nodded to this and went into her ball form. Once she flew into her wings Sorceress focused on her next spell. Opening her eyes her staff was covered in flames before Ram-Ma'am came back out as a blazing comet. Flying through the air Ram-Ma'am hit the creature before returning to Hajime's wings only to be launched again building up a cycle of sorts between them.
With a roar He-Man and She-Ra went for the legs and slashed their swords through it causing the creature to lose its footing. The fact Yumi and Hajime's combo attack was doing a number on it was not helping nor was the Filolial siblings own attack on it. The monster then knocked the pair away forcing them to get back on their mounts with He-Man on Battle Cat and She-Ra on Swift Wing.
"I wanna transform too!" Filo called out as she and Sakura looked to the scene.
"Yeah!" Sakura said even though she can already do that.
"Hey." He-Man called out as that gave him an idea. "That's not a bad idea." Ayato said and in turn pointed the Sword of Power at the Four Filolials.
"Wait what are you doing!?" Akane asked as she saw where this was going.
In turn the power of Greyskull shot out at the four Filolials imbuing them with its light. Their eyes flashed with that same power as a powerful transformation began to take place. In turn they began to enter a sort of hybrid form of their human and Filolial forms as Greyskull power filled them. By the end of it they were in shock as looking upon their forms the four had become... Teenagers! Yuki's form had an elegance of combat to it as clearly from her armor and wings design, she was the leader of the flock. Next was Filo who looked to be a bit of a bubbly magical girl the sort one would find in a Shonen lead role with her hair pulled into a tail. With her was Sakura whose pink hair had become long and well-kept as her entire form much like her siblings was built for speed and agility. Finally, was Koh who like his sisters had entered his Master form that had a helmet with goggles on it.
They all had goggles inf act no doubt to better handle the speed they would no doubt be going on. "Wow what?!" Naofumi asked as he saw this as She-Ran saw this as well.
"Presenting the Stratos Flock!" He-Man introduced as he looked to the Flock. "Master of the Sky the flock make up one whole Master!" He-Man said as the four looked to each other.
The Monster roared and in turn Filo saw it. "High Quick!" Filo called out and to her shock her kick had more juice to it forcing their foe back.
Yuki came next as energy wings came out. "Air Dart!" Yuki called out and in turn came at her foe with a power of wind sharp enough to slice through there foe.
"Spiral Tornado!" Yuki called out bring down a twister on the metal beast by flying around it before Koh came in next.
"Meteor Kick!" Koh finished and in turn brought his foot down with enough force of a Meteor attack the other heroes used.
He-Man then roared out as he jumped skyward and landed on the massive monster's head. He then proceeded to use the Sword of Power to tear into the head of the creature tearing more of its form off. "It's all on you now Man-At-Arms!" He-Man called out and thus Daito knew what to do.
"In coming!" Daito called out and using Naofumi's shield as a springboard Daito was launched at Orko. Once he grabbed onto the drone he was taken for a spin. "Just like fixing the Wi-Fi!" Daito called out as he reached for one switch in particular. "Just got to turn it off and then turn it back on!" He called out and thus pressed the button in question turning it off and turning it back on. The pair ended up falling as Daito managed to get the reset working on the machine. Thankfully, Daito's armor protected them both before they could get hurt from the landing.
"I just wanted people to believe in me." Orko said in a sad tone clearly upset about all of this.
Suddenly the Colossor roared as now that it was cut off from Orko it was starting to come undone. He-Man then jumped off as everyone got their distance from the resulting explosion. When the armor exploded Ayato was sent flying from the force as Yumi saw this.
"Well, there goes the neighborhood." Yumi said as Catra saw the scene as well.
"Please hit the royals, please hit the royals." Catra chanted as she wanted to see the King and his eldest get what's coming to them.
"How did the story of Orko and the Colossor end little guy?" Daito asked as he saw the armor falling down from the sky.
"I... turned it into a tree." Orko said and in turn this gave Daito an idea.
"Did you now?" Daito asked and thus threw Orko up to the sky. "Naofumi, I got this!" Daito called out as Naofumi was about to use Shield Prison to protect everyone.
Raising his spinning mace to the sky Daito began to run the numbers on what he needed to do and once he did, he smirked. Time began to slow to a crawl for him as he then got to work on his latest project. Jumping to the sky Daito used the power of Greyskull to bring the falling pieces of armor together and smashed into them to help the project along. It did not take long for Daito as once he cut off the power time resumed moving at a normal paste.
He landed on the ground and caught Orko in his arms. Everyone gathered around as standing before them was a tree made of the armors Orko had used prior for the Colossor. "Maker... I am a wizard." Orko said to Daito as he then fell asleep.
"We know." Daito said and in turn their job here was done.
"So... we gonna talk about Ayato just giving the power to anyone who joins us or?" Naofumi asked but Akane cut her off.
"Later we need to bail before they make us pay for the damages." Akane said and thus they were all in agreement that it was time to go.
(Scene Break Snake Mountain)
Soon enough Shadow Weaver returned to the throne room as Skeletor saw his eyes in the shadows appear. "Ah Shadow Weaver your back. I suspect that your mission was a success?" Skeletor asked as he looked to Shadow Weaver who seemed oddly nervous.
"No exactly." Shadow Weaver said as clearly something went wrong. "Tri-Clops had a bit of an accident and wasn't able to get to the heroes." She said and thus she gestured to the portal. "But I believe we have the next best thing." She said and from the portal it was not one of the three heroes but a young woman who walked in. She had blond hair and under the armor bits from Tri-Clops was wearing rags that would belong to a slave but had clearly been something nice a while back.
"I hear you want to bring down the Spear Hero." The woman said as her chest had the burnt remains of a slave crest no doubt purged by Havoc.
"Who wants to know?" Skeletor asked glaring at the girl before him.
In turn Tri-Clops detached from his host and in turn hovered near her like a pet of some sort. "My name is Rino and let's say I have a score to settle with Motoyasu and Malty." Rino introduced as she looked to Skeletor as the Overlord could see that this girl clearly had a vendetta no doubt after being wronged by Malty, no surprise there.
"Let me guess you were a member of the Spear Idiots party, and he was paying more attention to you for; giving him sound advice on hero work, Malty got angry and tricked you into slavery?" Skeletor asked as he figured Malty's schemes from the get-go.
"Down to an art." Rino confirmed and thus Skeletor grinned to this.
"I like her." Skeletor said giving Shadow Weaver a thumbs up as the Spear Heroes lost was his gain.
"I thought you would." Shadow Weaver said as she knew despite not getting the heroes, she got someone who knew them well enough to be a use to them.
"Well then welcome aboard, Tri-Clops." Skeletor welcomed and in turn the drone attached to Rino and thus the pair were ready.
