"I can't believe Entrapta's working
for the Horde. Shadow Weaver messed with her mind. She must have. Right?" Adora asks concerned.

"I don't know. She seemed normal when we talked to her. Entrapta-normal, but still, she wants to be with the Horde, they do have better tech than us." the sparkly princess admits.

"But we have magic on our side." Glimmer continues.

"Magic and tech aren't totally separate things. Entrapta is one of the only people who really understands that." I add.

"She got closer to combining them
than anyone else. And now she's with the Horde." Bow says and pulls out one of his arrows.

"Well, who needs Entrapta? You've got Bow, tech master and premier
member of the Etherian Maker Community." he finishes but his arrows explodes.

"Yeah, uh, meant to do that."

"Ahoy. Ha, ha. Be there in a sec. Comrades, I spotted buildings ahead.
The outpost is close." Swift Wind flew down.

"Entrapta made her decision. We can't change that." Glimmer admitted sadly.

"But we can focus on our mission
and help our people." I say.

"We lost all contact with the farming
outpost of Alwyn a week ago. The Horde hasn't been reported in the area, but we can't be too careful." Glimmer explains.

"They're definitely involved. They always are." Adora grunts.

"We can handle the Horde. I don't care if they have Entrapta's
inventions. They're no match for us." I tell them.

"We'll handle this the way we always do." Glimmer encourages us.

"Brute strength?" Adora asks.

"Almost dying?" Swift Wind adds.

"Sacrificing yourself?" I ask.

"No. No. And no. By sticking together and never giving up." Glimmer happily says.

"Yeah! Best Friend Quint to the rescue!" we just gave him this look.

"Because there's five of us? Okay, taking that one off the list."

We're getting closer to the orchard and Swift Wind speaks up.

"Uh, hello? I thought you should know, I'm sensing something weird
the closer we get to the outpost."

"Weird? Like what?" the blonde asks.

"I can't describe it. Just weird."

"What is this place?" Adora asks.

"Alwyn is the Rebellion's biggest
supplier of... Uh, well, supplies. It's basically one big orchard." Glimmer explains to her.

"One big, happy... Incredibly creepy orchard" she gestures forwards.

We hear a crunch behind us making us all jump.

"What? Creepy apples taste just as good as normal apples." the horse defends himself.

"The outpost must be up ahead."

“I don't see any Horde soldiers. I actually don't see anyone.” the blonde informs us.

“Where are they?” I ask.

“Maybe they're all inside?” Glimmer guesses.

“Let me take a look. I've upgraded
my tracker pad to detect Horde signals. If they're here, we'll find them with this.” Bow says, while taking out his tracker pad.
