Glimmer and Bow (part 1)
All Hordak could do at the moment was stare up the ceiling and focus on the feeling of Kadroh’s hand. Today was the day for his brothers to be judge upon and it worried him about how much stress would be upon Kadrohs’ shoulders. He was more worried after seeing him go into a panic over what he would do during the trial. He did sleep, just not well as he feared that stress would over take his brother and caused him more anxiety for the future of his brethren and that's the last thing he would want Kadroh to go through.
Hordak sat up and looked at his brother, looking so happy asleep while holding to his and Entrapta’ hand. He wanted to protect that smile, but he knows he can’t do much for Kadroh in his own position, so the best thing he could do now was to be by his side no matter what. His attention was taken away from Kadroh when Entrapta started to stir awake. She looked up to him, smiled happily and sleepily said, "Your eyes are getting back to its normal color"
Hordak touched the skin around his eyes and sighed happily. With just a simple smile and a few words to distract him, Entrapta eased his worries just a bit. "It was never really the normal color of my people, but the color that represents me", hordak responded lowly to not wake his brother. It wasn't for much as Kadroh started to open his eyes and yawned loudly. Entrapta sat up and the two looked at the younger clone as his ears twitched when getting started to be fully awake and just smile on how calm he looks.
Kadroh sat up with the two and said, "Good morning brother and sister" "Good morning!", Entrapta said cheerfully as the three stretched in unison, still holding hands while doing so. Emily beeped happily as she sat on top of the bed, seemingly say good morning as well. They were just to say good morning to her as well, but they were interrupted by the door opening and three heads on top of each other popping through. Those heads being of Bow, Queen Glimmer and former King Micah. Both groups just stared at each other in confused silence before the three at the door fell to the floor as Bow couldn't hold up the other two anymore.
Entrapta scooted to the edge a bit and said, "Hi~!" The three groaned and Bow muttered out, "Hi Entrapta" The three stood up and straightened themself up and looked at four on the bed, still hand in hand as they just stared at each other again. Hordak felt his anxiety rise again as he felt the eyes of Micah on him and just stared at his hand that was holding Kadroh to try to calm himself again.
Glimmer cleared her voice, getting his attention, and said, "So Kadroh, my dad will take you to trial as it is a big trial and he is more capable to handle it as we prepare for Hordaks' case" Kadroh nodded before raising his hand that was attached to Hordak, wanting to ask a question. "Ah, you don't have to raise your hand... Kadroh... you can just ask away", Micah smiled awkwardly. Kadroh smiled and put down his hand and asked, 'What is a Dad?" Bow and Micah had to stop themselves from choking as Glimmer tried to explain.
"Um... its the kin that takes care of you and are the ones that mostly made you? Mostly blood related, but they can become dads when adopting as well and Micah is my dad", Glimmer tried to explain, looking for Entrapta for help on how to explain, but Entrapta just continued smiling, not knowing she needed help. Kadroh hummed, "I still do not understand, but alright!" Micah cleared his voice and asked, "You'll have to look a bit more professional during this trial, do you want a suit, a dress, or a combination of the two?"
"You can have a combination of the two?!", Kadroh yelled as his eyes sparkled. Micah nodded with a more confident smiled while Bow and Glimmer awed at his expression. Kadroh turned to Hordak and said, "Brother, did you hear that! Is that not amazing?" Hordak smiled and nodded, "We would want you to be comfortable for the trial and looking professional would help your case" Kadroh grinned as he looked back at Micah and asked, "May I have to combination please?"
"Of course", Micah smiled, "Right after breakfast as we don't want any spilled food on you" Kadroh nodded as morning staff were coming in to prepare them breakfast. As the three got up, Hordak tried his best to hide away from Micah and sit as far away from him as possible with out being obvious. Though he was being obvious as Entrapta asked Hordak, "You okay, sunshine?" Hordak was startled a bit, but looked down to the floor as he didn't want to stare at the eyes of his former enemy.
Bow and Glimmer could also feel the tension building up so they tried starting small talk as the last of the breakfast was being set. "So, uh... nice hair Kadroh!", Glimmer started. "Oh thank you sister! Sister Mermista and brother Seahawk helped with it and I feel like a new being!", Kadroh smiled brightly. "You got it close to Entraptas hair color, was that something you were going for?" Bow asked. "Oh yes! Her hair is a great color and I wanted to try it out for myself and I love it!", Kadroh explained.
Breakfast was finally set and the trio looked at their linked hands. They didn't want to let go, but they couldn't exactly eat this way properly, so very slowly they let each others hands go and felt strange as the cool air caught up to their hands. They slowly began eating, the tension barely getting better. If Micah didn't start asking, 'So... Hordak.... your eyes are getting back to its original color" All on the table almost choked on their food except Kadroh and Entrapta who looked concerned at those who choked.
Hordak cleared his throat and with some struggle said, 'Y-Yes... it is part of the degradation of my body as I am not built like other clones." Micah nodded along to his words, looking down at his food and not showing any emotion of just what he was thinking about at the moment. Bow and Glimmer looked at the two nervously and tried to think of something else to talk about and then turned to Entrapta. "So hey! Entrapta, what uh new projects are you thinking of doing?", Glimmer asked in a hurry.
"Hmm? Oh!", Entrapta grinned as she pulled out different tablets, showing pictures of Hordak, buildings and another thing that look oddly familiar to them. Hordak took a glance to the new project and knew what Entrapta was planning for as she had been looking at Glimmer more these days. Of course she would want to bring her back that way, that would make the process more faster and more simpler for her to do. Bow looked in fascination at projects Entrapta pulled out while leaving Micah and Glimmer in confusion.
"I'm currently finishing up the program for Hordak's suit to run more smoothly and started to make plans to reuse the spirals and get first ones tech to recreate villages in more an efficient way of living", Entrapta grinned. Glimmer beamed, "That would be so great! I could ask local construction workers to help you along as well!" Bow nodded along, looking with amazement at the different concepts Entrapta came up with. Micah however was looking at the project that didn't seem like Hordak or a building so he pointed and asked, "What's that project for?"
Entrapta looked at the tablet he pointed at and grinned. She beckoned Emily over, having everyone except Hordak confused, and transferred the information to her to be projected on a blank wall. It was a large,bulky circle with many instructions on the side of what each mechanism should do and in the middle of the circle was a pair of wings. Entrapta grinned at Glimmer and Micah and said, "I'm creating a new portal to reach another dimension" Glimmer and Bow looked at her in shock and Bow yelled, "Entrapta why do you think that's a good idea?! Don't you remember what happened last time?"
Glimmer gripped on the table, trying not to shake, heavily asked, 'Don't you know who we already lost because of it?" Hordak looked down after seeing Micah's face of pure sadness. Entrapta nodded, "I know. Your mom" Glimmer tried to hold back, but snapped and asked, "Then why?!" Entrapta softly smiled, "We're not going to travel to the other dimension. We're bringing someone back" The three sat in shock, Kadroh clearly confused and Hordak was finishing his tea when he finally said what everyone was thinking Entrapta was planning to do.
"Entrapta is planning to bring back Queen Angela"
