★when hordak found out about catra's lie, he set a course straight for beast island to find the missing princess★

♡

Hordak's face was a permanent scowl as the boat moved towards the island. "Sir, are you sure this is a good idea?" The captain of the ship was about to put a hand on Hordak's shoulder before he sharply turned around, "DO NOT QUESTION MY METHODS! You get us to that island, that's it!" Hordak snarled at the Captain, making him back up from the scary Lord. "Y-Yessir, sorry" The Captain stuttered out and walked back to steering the ship. All that Hordak could think about was a certain tech Princess who was stuck on the most dangerous island in Etheria.

It made something in his stomach churn, the thought of Entrapta being alone. He knew not to underestimate the Princess, yet he couldn't help but feel worried. 'What if she's been kidnapped? What if she's injured? What if-' Hordak's thoughts were cut off when the bell was sounded and he felt the ship dock. "We await your orders, Sir" One of the crew mates put his hand up in a salute. Hordak nodded at them, "You shall stay here until I arrive back with my companion..." They all shouted, "Affirmative" Then scattered to do their jobs.

Hordak had his weapons on him as he knew the dangers of Beast Island, he'd send people here sometimes but he'd never actually visited it himself. The walk was already getting tiring as Hordak used his sword to swipe away at any lose tree branches. "Entrapta?" He called out to an empty cave, but there was no answer. That's when Hordak heard the low grumbling coming from a bush, he walked slowly backwards, sword grasped tightly in his hand.

★GRRRRRR★

A gigantic creature with spikes on its back jumped out the bush with a snarl. Hordak's eyes widened and he knew he'd be no match for the creature.

SLASH!

HIT!

No matter how hard Hordak tried, the creature was not taking any damage. Hordak had to stop to let out a breath but the creature used that to its advantage and it's large claw swiped at Hordak, sending him into a crystal. "UGH!" He grunted, looking up at the creature as it loomed closer to him. He shut his eyes. For the first time in awhile, he felt like a failure. He'd failed the one girl who made him feel the opposite, the ONE person who he'd learnt to trust like no other. 

"GET AWAY FROM HIM!"

A squeaky voice shouted and Hordak's eyes opened in shock. 'Is it really...' He thought, carefully moving himself into a standing position, an arm around his rib area. Shock came into his features as he watched the animal Entrapta was riding, take on the mysterious beast that had almost destroyed his life.

"Be careful, Entrapta!" 

He'd never felt like this before...worried about another person. But now he felt like his world was crumbling around him as he watched his Princess fight the beast to save him. Did he just call her...his? No. Entrapta was not his to own, she is a free spirit and he respected that. After a moment, a loud howl was heard from the beast as it fell off the cliff. "WOO! We did it!" Entrapta yelled in excitement as she stroked the creature she was riding. "Hordak! You came for me!" Entrapta called out to him and he rushed over with a smile. When she jumped off the creature, he was there to catch her as she wrapped her arms around his neck and brought him into a tight hug.

"I'm sorry" Hordak sighed, taking in the musty scent of Entrapta as she was still wrapped tightly around him. "Oh it's fine, really! The amount of First One's tech on this island is UNBELIEVABLE!" Entrapta shouted excitedly, she let go of him and then patted the creature next to her. The creature let out a loud rumble. "I'm glad you made the most of your...situation" Hordak awkwardly replied as Entrapta giggled, "Mhm! Are you here to bring me back?" She asked, a finger on her chin.

Hordak nodded, "Yes. You are to come back to the Fright Zone...with me" Entrapta let out a squeal as her hair held the recorder in its grasp. "Beast Island log date, I DON'T EVEN KNOW ANYMORE! HAHAHA! Hordak has came to rescue me, though I didn't need it. I appreciate it..." Hordak just smiled as he watched her ramble on about random things into her recorder. What made him a bit angry was how filthy she looked, her hair was knotted and had turned a sort of brown colour. Also he noticed how skinny she had gotten, that was to be expected on Beast Island though. Not many resources.

"Entrapta. Are you ready to leave?" Hordak asked, putting his hand out to her as she stopped recording. "YES! I can get back to my experiments! Ooo~ Do you think the cooks will make me my tiny food?" Entrapta busted out as she grasped his hand with a tight grip and her hair curled round his waist. "You can have all the tiny food you want Entrapta..." Hordak replied, happy to feel her hand in his. "YAY!" She excitedly responded and he could tell she was only imagining the amounts of tiny food she could eat.

He let out a chuckle as he thought about the big mission the cooks were going to go on when they got back. "Your smiling!" Entrapta's hair gave him a quick bop on the face as she swung their arm back and fourth. "W-Well I-" Hordak was about to snap back at her before he saw the content look on her face, he didn't want to make her upset. Hordak didn't want to aggravate her at all, he just wanted her to be safe and that she wouldn't have to be worried about being chased by giant monsters.

But when he said Catra was going to pay for lying to him...he meant it!

A/N: Entrapdak is my second fave ship in She-ra. It's just so INTERESTING! I sound like Entrapta OML. Also it just works. But I'm so annoyed that we didn't get Hordak coming to save Entrapta after Double Trouble told him. Well hey, ho we can't get everything we want, and the scenes in season 5 were more than sufficient for my Entrapdak loving self. Hope you guys enjoyed this! When I say its difficult to portray Hordak IT IS DIFFICULT, he's a...tough character XD.

Stay safe, guys!
