"Why me?"

 "The sword is meant for you. Etheria has need of you, Sura. Will you answer its call? Will you fight for the honor of Grayskull?" An image of the sword appears in front of Sura, hovering in front of him.

"What does Etheria need? And what's Grayskull?"

It feels right, though, what the woman's saying. Of course that's his sword.

"You will understand in time." And she and the room and the sword vanish in a flash of light. And Sura opens his eyes to find he has been tied up by the two rebellion kids from before.

Ugh.

He scowls at them.

"Hey he's awake!" Bow yells from literally a foot from Suras face.

"You're loud. Shut up."

"Hey you're the horde spy! I'm the one who tells you to shut up, how did you even make it this far into the whispering woods anyway?" Getting up in his face.

"Not a spy. And I walked."

"Sure, sure. You just so happened to find yourself in the Whispering Woods, like you just so happened to try and steal our sword." Trying to play the tough interrogator, hands on hips holding the sword possessively.

"It's my sword."

"The Whispering Woods is under the Rebellion's protection. You were lucky to make it as far as you did." Glares at Sura. "Come on, Bow. Let's get this spy back to Bright Moon where she can be interrogated properly. This is perfect. Not only do we First Ones tech for the rebellion, we've also captured a Horde spy. My mom's gonna be so impressed." Does a happy little squeal while clutching the sword, not the most intimidating look. "Now come on, on your feet." pointing at Sura.

"Make me." Rebellion people are supposed to be soft. He doubts he'll lose a contest of wills.

She pouts. "Prisoners are supposed to do as they're told." Giving him a little kick, more like a nudge, with her foot.

Bow gets his bow ready being a little more wary of a prisoner being defiant.

"How about: you give me my sword back. We all leave, and pretend we never saw each other."

"yeaaaaahhh no, gonna take you back to Bright moon to interrogate you. And the First one's tech was in our forest so it's ours. You horde soldiers don't even take prisoners so I don't see what you have to complain about. Now get up you lazy butt." Giving him another little kick in the rump to get him up.

Bow has an arrow nocked but not drawn just in case.

He raises an eyebrow at them. Stays silent.

"Look we'd rather take you prisoner than have a fight to the death that you'll lose. Go with us pleeeeease." Punctuating his polite request by drawing his bow, that is one the sharp non-trick arrows on the bow too.

"Bow!" Looking shocked her nice friendly best friend would threaten someone like that.

He stands. Slowly.

Apparently one of them has a spine. Interesting.

Glimmer leads the way back to Bright Moon for a while until Bow starts getting nervous.

"You positive we're going the right way, Glimmer?" gripping his bow a little tighter.

"I know what I'm doing, Bow. Can you please just trust me for once?"

"You know I always trust you, but I'm starting to get a little freaked out. I mean, I pretty much grew up in these woods and I've never even seen this part of them. I've heard stories about weird stuff out here." Bow doesn't recognize any of this scenery, Is the forest changing on them? It was usually pretty good about not messing with bright moon forces and waylaying the Horde.

"It's fine, okay? Just let me figure this out." Glimmer snaps back all defensive about her leadership skills being questioned again.

"Okay! Touchy." He turns to Sura. "Sorry about her. Usually she's really nice. Not much for talking, huh?" Because of course Bow is trying to befriend the prisoner he threatened just a little while ago.

He shrugs. "It's effort." He's still keeping an eye out for escape routes - he'll have to be more careful with an actually trained soldier around. He pauses, then: "I don't know anyone nice to their enemies."

"No harm in being nice is there? plus you aren't my personal enemy you just happen to be on the other side, granted your side does horrible horrible things but I doubt you were there for most of them seeing as how you can't be older than I am." He still has his bow in hand but he does look pretty cheerful considering the situation.

Glimmer scowls, in her opinion just because this Horde spy might not have participated in said horrible things doesn't make them not evil for being on that side.

He nods. "I'm still not allowed to leave the base." Which stings. His older sister had been an acting Force Captain by now...
