      "We're wasting too much time! We need to act, there's no time. The Horde has Adora and the Sword!" Glimmer spoke up to queen Angella as you, Bow, and the other princesses peek from the door.

      "And then what? How are you going to get in? You have no plan. We are not rushing it" queen Angella argued with a stern voice "I won't lose anyone else"

      "Oh, my" you turned to Bow "How many times are you and Glimmer gonna keep taking risks?" you asked, showing disappointment on your face.

      Bow mumbled an apology.

      "You...wanna talk about thrust? Ha, how come you never told me that Shadow Weaver was dad's old teacher!?" that made queen Angella stutter as she stepped back from Glimmer into the shadow.

      "It was a long time ago...."

      "You know what?" Glimmer crossed her arms "We should be talking to her, she knows the Horde"

      "She can't be trusted!" queen Angella raised her voice.

      "We have to do something! You would see that if you weren't totally paralyzed by fear!"

      You gasped, that will surely make her upset.

      Queen Angella's voice suddenly became cold.

      "I am your queen, and I say we cannot afford to lose anyone else" she stepped out of the shadow "Either come up with a reasonable plan, Commander Glimmer, or stay out of the way!"

      Queen Angella walk towards the door as the princesses scattered away quickly Bow panicked and open the door, she glanced at you before walking away. Letting you know how much the argument hurts her.


--------------------


      "Ugh! She won't listen to me! How could I just stand still when Adora is in danger!?" Glimmer groaned, kicking the wall with her foot.

      "Calm down, Glimmer. I don't think we could change her majesty's mind" Bow said, trying to stop her from hurting her foot.

      "Well, maybe Miss Y/N can change her mind, aren't you mom's best friend?" 

      "I would say that wouldn't be possible, you see...before you arrived we had a very serious argument," You said glancing at Glimmer "You know how serious"

      Glimmer stood silently when she said "We gotta talk to Shadow Weaver" 

      She grabbed both your and Bow's arms and teleported near Shadow Weaver's cell.

------------

       "This is a bad idea" 

       "It's a great idea!"

       Bow frowned.

       "Okay, it's terrible. But we have no other choices!" 

      "I am surprised you don't ask for help from me," you said, giving her a sad face.

      "Oh...! Well, Shadow Weaver is from the Horde so...."

      "That is why she's super dangerous! I wanna help as much as you do, but Shadow Weaver!?" Bow chirped in.

      "But Adora needs us now!"

      "Normally I wouldn't agree, but only this time I would let you make a such dangerous decision" you agreed

      "See, Bow? Shadow Weaver would know all of the Fright Zone's weak points. Let at least talk to her" Glimmer grabbed both you and Bow's arms as she teleported away into Shadow Weaver's room.

-----------

      "Princess" Shadow Weaver called out immediately as you all arrived, moving the book she was reading away from her face "It's about time"

      "You knew we were coming?

      "Others, I have no idea about," she said looking at you, closing and holding up the book before dropping it on the ground. So she still read it after all... 

      "But you. You are smart, you want to stop the Horde and know I am the only one who could help you do that" she lean back on the chair " I must admit, I thought it would take you longer to speak with me"

      You coughed, she look attractive sitting like that. Glimmer and Bow gave you a weird look, but you tell them to ignore it.

       Glimmer explained to Shadow Weaver that Adora has been taken by the Horde, stating that the Horde needs to be stopped before they can open a portal with Adora's power. Shadow Weaver's mask eyes widen in surprise, suggesting that action must be done or else Hordak will open the portal immediately if he has the chance.

      "The Alliance will never get there in time-gasp-but perhaps....." she stopped talking mid-way, tacking Glimmer off a little.

      "What? What is it?"

      "Let me out and I can help you teleport right into the heart of the Fright Zone"

      Glimmer laughed as she said she wouldn't even reach the edge of the Fright Zone without running out of power.

      "There's always a way princess" you spoke up "Shadow Weaver can use a spell to help you absorb more power, and enhance it even"

     "How?"

     "Just let her access your connection with the Moonstone, I am sure she is thinking the same thing right now" A book appeared in your hands as you run through the pages "I would do it for you if I can, but the spell was removed from the book before I could reread it" you showed Glimmer the ripped page in the book "Shadow Weaver is also the only non-princess to ever use the power of a runestone, she would also do a better job than me"

      "If only you allow me, I could enhance your powers and you can teleport all the way there" Shadow Weaver added, Glimmer stood in silence as her eyes sparkled.

       "Uh...us?" Bow chirped in, pointing at himself and you.

       "I suppose you both could come, we'll teleport into Hordak's sanctum, disable the portal machine, and find Adora"

       "You could make me that powerful?" Glimmer asks in hesitation. And Shadow Weaver assured her as she said Glimmer is more powerful than she thinks being the daughter of a great sorcerer, hearing his mention makes you sick. As much as how Bow is against the idea, Glimmer had made a decision and surprisingly broke the spell that was holding Shadow Weaver.

       Bow groaned holding his face in his hand. You, on the other hand, were a little surprised. 

       This time you won't let get her out of your hand.
