Genre: Romance/Family
Pairings: Adam/Teela, Bow/Adora, Cringer/OC, and Sea Hawk/OC
Summary: Hi, readers. I would like to present a He-man/She-ra crossover. It is AU set seven years after 'Swifty's Baby' and shows Adam and Teela have having in a relationship for four years and finding a childhood friend returning home after her former royal guard parents die from pneumonia, but her lifelong crush on him becomes an obsession with him. It is based on the 80s version of both cartoons. I decided to pair Bow and Adora together as I felt they made a great pairing due to their excellent chemistry. That is not to say I do not like Sea Hawk. I do. I just felt he and Adora did not make a good pairing since their chemistry was not great. Moreover, the distance between them was too big. That would have likely affected their relationship. I decided to write a prologue as the details would have taken too long to cover in any chapter. I want to warn everyone ahead of time this crossover will contain sexual content. Some of it will be intense. If that offends you, I suggest you not read it. Otherwise, you may read at your own risk. I hope you enjoy this crossover. Constructive criticism is welcome.

Prologue
Seven years had passed since the birth and rescue of Swift Wind and Star Wind's son, Sparky. His parents worked out an agreement that his father would visit him and his mother on Unicorn Island once every three months. He grew into a fine-looking colt. He was not allowed to perform dangerous stunts until he was a full-fledged stallion. He became one recently. He was excited he could now do them under the guidance of the more experienced unicorns.
Adam and Adora continued to fight to protect Eternia and Etheria as He-man and She-ra. The Great Rebellion had made substantial progress in freeing Etheria from the Horde's grips. He-man was present for battle from time to time. The rebels ended up not relying on She-ra to help them anywhere near as much as they used to. This impressed Adora a lot because she knew she had taught them a very valuable lesson about doing things for themselves.
Adam and Adora spoke with the Sorceress about revealing they were He-man and She-ra to Teela and Bow three years after Sparky's birth. The Sorceress said they could not due to the law of Grayskull forbidding it. They became frustrated and told her they were tired of lying to them. This was especially true for Adora as she had begun dating Bow three months earlier. Her seven-month relationship with Sea Hawk had been affected by the long distance. They decided to end it, but they agreed to remain friends. The Sorceress showed much sympathy for the twins. She said an exception could be granted if they trusted Bow and Teela to keep their secret. She gave them her blessing to reveal the truth after they admitted they did.
Adam and Teela headed to Etheria to visit their friends a week later. He and Adora brought her and Bow to a secluded place. Cringer and Spirit went with the group. The twins transformed into He-man and She-ra in front of them. So did Spirit and Cringer as Swift Wind and Battlecat. Teela and Bow were shocked at this revelation. He-man and She-ra explained why they had to keep this secret. Teela and Bow became angry at them, especially when they said Duncan, Orko, Kowl, Madame Razz, and Broom knew about it. They accepted it later on. They agreed to keep quiet.
A month later, Adam and Teela were talking a walk in the Evergreen Forest when they heard whimpering. They came to a group of bushes. They went around them carefully as they were concerned it was an ambush. They discovered a tigress with her paw caught in a hunter's bear-clamp trap. She flattened her ears against her skull and growled warningly when he tried to pet her, but she became calm when Teela whispered to her gently. She allowed her to pet her. He freed her from the trap, and they took her home to have her injury treated. They named her Lizzie.
Adam and Teela intended to release Lizzie into the wild, but the tigress grew very attached to the latter and would not leave her side. Lizzie fell hard for Cringer, who returned her love. She was the opposite of him being brave and feisty. She even stopped him, Adam, and Teela from walking into the path of a brown cobra in the Evergreen Forest. Randor and Marlena declared Lizzie could stay in the palace permanently. Teela was grateful to them for this.
Teela was seriously injured in a battle with Skeletor and his warriors when they attacked a small town called Kila for the hell of it three months later. She fell into a coma for six days. Adam was by her bedside constantly. Bow and Adora came to see her as well. The prince admitted to her that he had always loved her. Randor overheard him and began to regret pushing him to marry a princess. He told him he was very proud of him for finding love on his own. He revealed his great-great-grandfather had a romance with his bodyguard. This surprised Adam a bit.
Teela recovered rather quickly after waking up. She learned from Duncan about Adam's confession of love at her bedside. She admitted to the latter she felt the same way about him. This brought him much happiness. She was just as happy to know no one had an issue with them being in a relationship, especially her family and friends. Randor became less harsh on his son. They grew closer than they had been in years.
Eight months later, Bow and Adora visited Eternia along with Glimmer, Frosta, Castaspella, Kowl, Madame Razz, and Broom. Sea Hawk, his wife Mina, and three-month-old daughter Lisa came as well. Bow and Adora announced they were engaged and wanted to have their wedding with the whole family together. Sea Hawk revealed he brought Mina to meet his friends at the rebel camp and that he met her while he was vacationing in a village called Leha two years earlier. He started a relationship with her quickly. They married within a year. Bow and Adora's friends and family were very happy for them. They married with everyone present four days later.
Six months after the wedding, Arrow became very sick with a lung infection. He was given the usual medicine, but it did not help. Not even increasing dosage put a dent into it. Bow became rather desperate. Sea Hawk, Mina, and Lisa arrived at the camp for a visit. They learned about Arrow's illness. Mina presented a rare flower called the white daisy. She explained it grew outside of her village and contained powerful medicine that could cure many illnesses. She suggested Arrow be given it, though she warned it could cause a bad reaction as it had never been given to a horse. Bow begged her to save his horse. Arrow was given the medicine. He eventually recovered.
Four months after Arrow's recovery, Bow and Adora learned they were expecting their first child. This excited them greatly. Their friends and family were very happy for them. At the same time, it meant Adora would not be able to fight as She-ra, except in extreme emergencies. This proved to not be a problem as skirmishes with the Horde were not that common. She gave birth to a boy she and Bow named Apollo after the Greek god of the sun six months later.
Three months after Apollo's birth, She-ra and Swift Wind visited Unicorn Island to see Star Wind and Sparky. They took Bow with them, so he could meet the family and the Unicorn King. Star Wind announced she and her mate were having another foal. This excited Bow and She-ra. Bow spent time with the Unicorn King, who admired him for his archery skills and willingness to fight Hordak. Star Wind gave birth to a girl she and Swift Wind named Athena after the Greek goddess of wisdom and warfare five days later. Sparky loved his sister from the start.
Fifteen months after Athena's birth, Bow, Adora, Apollo, Kowl, Madame Razz, Broom, Sea Hawk, Mina, and Lisa came to Eternia to visit for several weeks. This was due to a long period of quiet on Etheria. Glimmer decided to stay behind and lead the rebels in Adora's place. Randor and Marlena announced Adam and Teela's childhood friend, Ellie, was returning home after years of living on her farm on the Fertile Plain with her former royal guard parents, Jose and Darlie, and would be here within a week.
Randor and Marlena explained to the Etherians that Ellie used to play with Adam and Teela all the time while they were growing up together. Ellie was the only one of the children to defend Cringer as a cub besides Adam. She was known to have a huge crush on him. Jose and Darlie wanted a simpler life and decided to become farmers when Ellie was thirteen. They contracted pneumonia in the final six months on the farm. They developed complications and died three weeks later. She sold it within four months and sent word to the king and queen about her return.
Bow, Adora, Kowl, Madame Razz, Broom, Sea Hawk, and Mina found themselves looking forward to meeting Ellie. They hoped Apollo and Lisa would react really well to her. The same went for Lizzie, Spirit, and Arrow, especially since the latter stallion was known to be rather averse to strangers. Little did they know that fate had something else in mind for them and the royal family.
