Unedited btw

Going to grab it again she realized it was on the floor and some of it spilled out. In a panic Adora quickly got out of the water and grabbed her washcloth to clean it.

"No no no no." Frantically, she tried to clean up the soap that spilled. In her haste, Adora went to pick up the bottle of body wash and squeezed more of it out. "W-Water... That should h-help."

Dunking the washcloth into the tub pulling up as much water as possible, dropped it over the small glob of soap. In turn that made more of a mess, panic was the only thing she could feel.

She was trusted enough to be left alone; they would never trust her again. "Why should they? I only get in trouble when left alone." There are too many thoughts going through Adora's head. She couldn't think properly. Still naked, she stood up and looked around to see what she could use to help. Suddenly, she registered the towel on her head. Grabbing it, she took it off and tried to scoop up everything on the floor. Being somewhat successful, she let out a breath. "Now I need to hide this... Before Glimmer comes back..."

A new problem arises, where can she hide them? There is no telling when the princess will be back. The blonde sunk to her knees, ignoring her wet hair falling around her.

Suddenly the door was opened and closed. Adora was afraid to turn around, she let her Horde Training take over.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~At a clothing supply closet ~~~~~~~~~~~~

Spinnerella and Netossa were rummaging through looking for something to wear.

"I can't believe it! That guard was bleeding everywhere..." Netossa mentioned as she was holding up a pair of orange pants. Shaking her head, she put them back.

"Darling, I know you're mad about your favorite pants being ruined. But you know people tend to bleed when they are injured." Chastised Spinnerella, as she holds up a blue top, putting it to the side. "I mean, she bleed on my shirt as well but I'm not complaining."

Netossa looked at her, giving her a blank face. "We still have to go to the meeting. They are waiting on us." As she said that there was a pop. Looking over, the couple saw Glimmer standing there.

"Hey girls! What are you doing he- What happened to you?!" Glimmer shouted as she took in their appearance.

Spinnerella and Netossa shared a look. The blue haired women nodded her head towards her wife.

Sighing, Spinnerella explained. "We were heading to the war room for our weekly meeting and- "She was cut off by the sparkly girl cursing under her breath. "an injured guard came rushing down the hall. She had blood tripping down her side and ran into us."

"We tried to help her, but she shoved us away." Netossa was still confused about that.

Thinking this information over, Glimmer realized it may have been the guard who hurt Adora. "What did they look? This is very important." She really hoped it wasn't the same one.

"Um they had their helmet on, so we didn't get a good look at them." Spinnerella said unsure of what to say.

Netossa nodded, looking down she found a scale then gasped. "They had scales!" she held up a pink scale that had some blood on it.

"I was afraid of that. Are you going to the War Room?" Glimmer was growing anxious. "We need to tell my mother right now." Hopping from one foot to another she debated on going herself, but she can't leave Adora alone for long. "Can you please go and inform her right now? I cannot have another guard do it."

"Sure thing." Netossa said has she dropped the clothing she picked up. Grabbing Spinnerella she took down the hallway.

Letting out a sigh, Gimmer quickly grabbed something she thought Adora would look decent in. Not knowing the other girl's size, she picked from the medium section of the closet. Just until she could get the blonde to a tailor. "I can't waste any more time, I gotta get back to her." With that she teleported just outside her room.

Glimmer raised her hand to knock, she didn't want to scare Adora. When she knocked, she heard no response. Her mother making and appearance by her side.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~War Room~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Your Majesty!" Spinnerella shouted along with Netossa running into the room. "We have urgent news!"

The sudden noise brought everyone's attention to the doorway. The two princesses were panting at the unexpected exercise.

"What is going? Is it The Horde?" Angella stood up, Castaspella following suit. They noticed the blood on their outfits. "Are you injured?"

"Glimmer told us to tell you- there is a guard loose." Netossa pointing to their clothing where the bloodstains where, "This is her's actually."

"We ran into her at the supply closet." Spinnerella told them. This prompted a look from Bow, Mermista, and Perfuma. "What? Did I say something wrong?"

"No, we were just curious to know what those two are up to." Bow said as he gave Glimmers family a side glance. "Did you happen to see Adora?"

Giving a crooked eyebrow, the blue haired woman shook her head. Getting a similar response from the pink and purple one.

Whispering to Casta, Angella sat down folding her hands.

"If you will excuse me." Hurried out Castaspella. "I have urgent business in the castle." With that she left the room, doors slamming behind her.

"Well I think we should get this meeting started now that everyone is here. Ladies, you may take a seat." Angella stated, as she gestured to their respective chairs. "Any news from your kingdoms?" Looking at the two other princesses.

Perfuma cleared her throat. "The Heart Blossom is thriving better than ever thanks to The She-Ra and her friends." She smiled at Bow and in turn he smiled back. "I haven't seen The Horde in the area since we drove them out. Although someone did steal all of our apples..."

"And what of your kingdom, Princess Mermista? Any Horde activity that we should know about?"

Sighing, the water princess rolled her eyes. "Nothing to report Queen Angella. Ever since She-Ra fixed the gate, like nobody evil can get in." Grunting out Mermista rolled her eyes again. "Except Sea Hawk. But he's just so annoying."

"That's good to hear. What about the Whispering Woods? I heard there was an altercation there recently." Angella looked at Bow.

Staying silent for a moment Bow thought over the information he knew. "The incident is still unknown mostly. The village reported a Horde stronghold near the outskirts of their town."

"And did you investigate the area?" Angella needed more details to see what she could do about this.

Nodding, Bow continued. "Yes Ma'am. When I got to the scene there seemed to be no solders in the area. Their machinery was all that was left. Upon further investigation, one of the tanks had its barrel sliced cleanly in half."

Angella's eyes went wide for a moment hearing that. She now had an idea of what might have happened to Adora's rib cage. But for now, she pressed on with the meeting.

"Do we know what tool was able to cut the tank?" Angella was perplexed because she has never seen anything that could slice through metal like butter.

"The only thing we can think of is She-Ra's sword. I remember her using it during the battle in Thymore. But we would need to ask Adora to confirm it." Bow was a little disappointed that his two best friends were not at the meeting. "Do you think we can ask Adora later on? Like when she's not busy?"

Shaking her head, the Queen gave him a vague answer. "Whenever Adora and Glimmer finish their activities then it's a possibility."

"But wasn't Glimmer just by herself a moment ago?" replied Mermista. "Meaning Adora and her should be done."

"Now Mermista, they could have just been playing a game of hide and seek..." Trailed off Perfuma. When the blank stare she got in return was the only answer she got she relented. "You're right. Adora's too old for those games."

This caught Angella's attention. Maybe she could finally get an age for her second charge. She had to pick her words carefully. Thinking it over, she finally had the words to say. "W- "But she was cut off by Bow.

"What do you mean 'too old'? She just turned 17! You are never too old to play games with your friends." Bow's voice cracked as he stood up in his seat. "I challenge you to a game. You'll see how fun it can still be!"

Clearing her throat, Angella asked kindly. "Now Bow, would you kindly take your seat." A blush rose to his face when Bow realized what he was doing.

"S-sorry! But the game is so on after the meeting."

"Do not worry about it. I'm giving you free range of the castle grounds by the way." Angella smile. Then added. "But please refrain from entering private bedrooms."

"Understood." Bow beamed at the others in the room. "Also, permission to contact Princess Entrapta in case I am unable to get Adora?

Taking note of the information, Angella stood up. "Permission granted. With that, please make sure to report any changes to your territories. And I officially welcome our two new princesses to the Alliance. I call this meeting to a close."

Getting ready to find Casta spell in the Throne Room she added. "For our guest, I ca have rooms prepared." She got a thank you in return. "Now run along and have fun." With that she left to make her way down the hallway.

She passed by Adora's room again and shut her door fully. "No need for anyone to go in there." Getting ready to continue her way to Casta she saw a flash of light to her right.

Seeing as how Glimmer's room is to the right of the War Room and the blondes was to the left to wasn't hard to miss. She saw Glimmer knock on the door, but when she stood there for a moment Angella got curious.

Making her way over to her daughter, Angella made herself know. "Well it seems the bath worked out just fine." She said with a smile. The smile dropped when her ears picked up on the sound of crying. Sharing a look with Glimmer, she told her to grab Casta from the Throne room.

Nodding, Glimmer handed Angella the clothing she picked up for the blonde. "I'll be right back." And with that she vanished to only reappear with a frazzled looking sorceress.

Getting ready to ask what was going on, she noticed where she was. The first thing she picked up on was the sound of crying. Knocking, she was greeted with a yelp. "Adora? Sweetie? Are you alright?"

"We're coming in." Angella said as she pushed open the door. The sight that they saw was not one they expected. For in front of them was an unconscious guard.

"I-I didn't mean t-too! I-I'm sorry! I'm a bad person." Adora screamed out. She was curled up on herself again, muttering. "S-she just c-came out of no-nowhere. I- I d-didn't mean too. I-I've been bad." She was shivering, still not having been dressed.

Glimmer grabbed the towel on the ottoman and wrapped Adora in it. She stroked her hair whispering words of comfort. "Its okay, Adora. Shhh, it's okay. You're not bad, you're good."

"I-I'm g-good?" Adora's blue eyes meet Glimmer's pink ones.

"Of course. You are the goodest person I know." Glimmer said as she leaned in, her forehead touching the blondes.

"R-Really?" it came out barley a whisper.

"Why would I lie about that? Hmm?" Glimmer backed up, and booped her nose.

The noise created caught the attention of the others down the hall. Rushing to the doorway they looked in.

"Awwwwwe!" Squealed Bow as he watched the scene unfold.

This made the people in the room look in shock at the door. They forgot entirely that the others were practically outside.

The sudden noise made Adora jump. She pressed herself into Glimmer trying to hide.

"Hate to break up the touching moment, but what's up with the guard?" Mermista pointed out to them. This made the blonde start crying again, Mermista looked down feeling bad.

Perfuma stepped forward, she hated seeing the mighty She-Ra like this. She didn't look so mighty right now, and that felt wrong. Looking at Casta and Angella she asked, "Is there anything I can do?"

"Actually, yes. Could you and Bow get this guard to the infirmary?" asked Angella. "And could you make sure they can't move? This 'guard' is a traitor to the Rebellion." The faster the traitor was treated the faster she could put them on trial.

"Yes Ma'am." They said in unison. Perfuma wrapped them up in her vines. Going over to Bow with the tied-up person, she followed him out with a slight blush on her face.

Mermista was feeling awkward, "I'll just follow them..." and left with them.
