A She-ra: Princess of Power 2018 fanfiction
The war is finally over. Prime is dead, the hive mind is broken, and everyone is reunited with their loved ones. However, there are some questions left unanswered. What will be the fate of Catra and Hordak? What are these new memories Wrong Hordak has? What is Etheria's place in the wider universe? Where do we go now?
Hey guys, here's chapter 25. I wrote most of this morning, so I'm sorry if this is so short and not the best quality. This past week had been hectic for me. Still thank you for the support I have gotten.
I'll say this again if you have any questions or need to say anything to me please comment it or use my asks box (or whatever it is called I'm new). Have a great rest of your week.
The six brothers walked into the mountain. Hordak led the way through the winding pathways highlighted by the map Entrapta made him. The lights in the cave were dim, which wasn’t a problem since they could see just fine even if it was pitch black. When they turned the next corner, they shut their eyes at the sudden abundance of light illuminating the larger cavern. After letting their eyes adjust, they saw rows of shops and vendors coming out of every nook and cranny bathed in soft blue and purple lights.
Many of the smaller vendors sold handmade crafts. Most of it was jewelry made from the gemstones found deep in the mines of Dryl along with other amenities made from leather, iron, and even clothing. The larger shops in the center had more professional brands that could be found in some of the other countries across Etheria.
The six brothers made their way through the winding roads of the market. Whispers wove their way through the hustle and bustle of the masses. The glances and glares from the crowd unsettled the brothers, all except Hordak who was used to looks of disgust and whispers of contempt.
ZD tapped Hordak on the shoulder.
“What is that?” ZD pointed at a black building with silver trimming. Just inside the window, a person was sitting in a chair while another person made black marks on their skin with a pen-like device.
“Come with me,” Hordak guided his brothers to the shop’s window. “A tattoo is a permanent piece of art embedded within the skin. This is achieved by puncturing the skin with needles and inserting ink.”
“I would advise against that. A tattoo can only be removed with lasers, otherwise, it is completely permanent; thus, much thought and consideration must be put in before attaining one.” ZD’s ears drooped. “However, if you can come up with a fitting design with ample thought, I will pay for it.” ZD’s face lit up.
“Thank you, HK.” ZD gave a small bow.
“What are they doing there?” LD pointed at two people in the back of the shop. One was sitting on a stool while another person held a device to their ear.
“That person is getting their ears pierced. Many beings decide to make harmless holes in their body, and insert jewelry.”
“I believe so, once the hole is healed up.”
All five gave Hordak a pleading look. He sighed and pulled out his wallet.
“JJ, did you seriously have to yelp when the woman pierced your ears?” TD asked as they exited the shop.
“I just didn’t expect it to hurt.” JJ’s ears drooped in embarrassment.
“Hey HK, do you think maybe we could get She-Ra to grow our hair out too? Just whenever is possible.”
“I will ask her about it.”
“Thank you… where are they going?” LD pointed to the rest of his brothers running off into the crowd.
“Come on, let’s go chase after them.” LD ran off to find them and Hordak tried to follow him, but something was holding him back. He turned around to find a short middle-aged woman with lilac skin and dark purple hair holding onto one of his overall straps. As he looked into her cerulean eyes he saw a kind of wisdom that reminded him of his mother.
“You are the former Lord Hordak, are you not?” She asked, letting go of him.
“I had a feeling. I’m Morella, the overseer of System One of Dryl. Many people call me Mother Morella.” She stuck out her hand for Hordak to shake. He took it nervously, trying to regain his stability.
“Ah yes, Entrapta has mentioned you before. It is an honor to meet you, madam. May I ask what you require of me?”
“I simply wanted to meet to person our dear Princess was in a relationship with.”
“Word travels fast within the mines of Dryl. Besides, by the way, she spoke of you, it was only a matter of time before you two got together.”
“It was more how she said it. She spoke with such admiration about you. I can’t describe it, I just know things.” Hordak’s ears flicked down, and his cheeks flushed.
“Is there anything else you need, madam?”
“I only ask that you protect Princess Entrapta. You of all people should know how reckless she can be.”
Hordak looked into her warm eyes.
“Rest assured madam, for as long as my heart beats Princess Entrapta and all she holds dear will be my priority.”
By the way, Morella is whatever species held that party/ trap in season five. I don't know if the name was mentioned because I haven't watched the show in a while. Oops.
Also fixed the errors that Grammarly pointed out after I posted this.
