01x13 - Night of the Shadowbeasts

[bunniefuu]

I am Adam, Prince of Eternia, defender of the secrets of Castle Greyskull.

This is Cringer, my fearless friend. Fabulous!

By the power of Greyskull!

I have the power!

This had better be good, Beastman. I was in the middle of planning my next as*ault upon Castle Greyskull.

Oh, it's real good. See for yourself.

What I see here is nothing, you mainty moron.

What is it?

It's called a shadow beast.

With an army of these, I could easily take Greyskull.

Now, one problem. Shadow beasts hate light, but I figure if we attack at night...

Brilliant, fur fur brains. What about moonlight?

Still, there has to be a way to use them. Even if it means blotting out the very sky.

Nicely done, Mekanek.

Our next training exercise will be entry and access. Raman, why don't you...

Right, pulverize that wall.

Raman, wait! That's...

An old well!

Raman, are you all right?

I'm fine. I'm...

Not fine.

Thanks, guys.

I don't get it. Why are we filling up these holes?

Because Skeletor said to.

Those volcanic vents act as safety valves for Mount Barath from Skeletor.

And your point is, if you seal them up, the pressure's going to build.

Causing the volcano to erupt?

Precisely, dear, you filled in.

Smoke and ash will fill the sky, blotting out all light, and then...

Enter the shadow beasts!

You're going to love this!

You're going to love this!

The amazing spinning sparking flower!

Whoo-hoo!

That never happened before!

I don't think it's your magic, Orko.

What's going on?

Some kind of eclipse, coming from the dark hemisphere.

That's better.

Trajectory indicates likely point of contact. Eternian power station.

g*n burned.

Maybe we should head over to Mannon Arm's workshop.

You're on sector patrol. Move it!

Sensors indicate that volcanic vents near Mount Barath from have all been blocked.

Skeletor.

Many faces, you've got your robot scanners.

Mechanic, use these night vision enhancers for reconnaissance.

By the power of Greyskull!

I have power!

Oh, what was that?

Okay, what was that thing?

Shadow beast.

Skeletor's forces, along with an army of those things, advancing on the palace.

Maybe I can't stick around, masters, but I've got a pressing engagement elsewhere.

Greyskull, come battle cap.

Battle positions!

Man the round parts!

Iowa! Back up, Teela!

Easy, battle cap. Two of them, two of us.

Came to watch the fun of seeing the great He-Man try to fight off an army of shadow beasts.

Much as I hate spoiling your fun, beast man.

Tense music

Back off!

I'll flank them from the left. Cover me!

You're afraid of the dark.

What, me? Come on! You can't...

Yeah, since I was a little boy.

I got lost in the caverns under the plains of Perpetua.

Miles and miles of dark.

Nothing.

Do you think I'm a coward?

You're one of the bravest men I know.

Remember this, rat man. True courage is when you're afraid, but you act anyway.

Mecanec says Skeletor's minions are consolidating their forces at the palace's northern perimeter.

Let's move.

And soon, the doors come tumbling down!

Tense music

He-Man, you must hurry!

Faster, Battlecat!

Aah!

Aah!

She's the least of your worries.

Tense music

Tense music

Are you okay?

Uh, yeah, fell on my head.

Uh, where are we?

Ancient prison compound, built by the Elders eons ago.

Earth?

Tense music

Tense music

Knock, knock. Guess who?

Always a gatecrasher, eh, Skeletor?

You're too late, He-Man.

Darkness becomes you, Skeletor.

In fact, the less I see of you, the more I...

Aah!

No now

What trickery! Come back here you spineless ape!

Ah, who needs you?

I can finish the job, mate!

Tense music

Grey Skull will be mine! It will be mine!

The Siege of Grey Skull is over, Battle Cat.

I fear that may not be so, He-Man.

Skeletor and the Shadow Beasts are gone for now.

But they will return, unless sunlight is restored to Eternia.

And to do that?

You must stop the eruption of Mount Baratheon.

We'll find a way out sooner or later.

Sooner works for me.

They're everywhere!

They won't attack, and I've got this.

Let's move back, nice and easy.

Teela!

Too dark. I'm gonna get out of here.

Tense music

Hang on, Teela! I'm coming!

Teela?

Twisted my ankle!

My ankle! My ankle!

Hey, Harry! Pick on somebody my own size!

Which way?

My way!

He-Man!

Wait here, Battle Cat.

Four playscopes!

Four Shadow Beasts!

Wait! Hold your fire!

Retreat!

Heard about how you saved Teela, Ram-Man.

Must have been spooky.

Being down in that dark old dungeon, Shadow Beasts, everywhere.

Nah. Well, maybe a little.

But sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do, even if you're scared.

Blast that He-Man!

Oh well, at least I have the consolation of knowing the palace of Eternia has been destroyed.

Or is there something you'd like to tell me?

Perhaps in the morning, then.

Nighty-night! Don't let the Shadow Beasts bite!

Tense music

Everyone has fears, but sometimes fear can be a good thing.

Our mind's way of telling us that something isn't safe.

See what I mean?

Until next time!

Yeah! Until next time!
