Sorry for those expecting a new chapter, this is actually the all new revamped beta'd version of Chapter 1, together with my Amazing Beta hooked and my reader NelumboGryffindor, I will be reworking all 7 chapters and re-uploading each of them.

I will leave the original 7 chapters up for now.

Prince Adam reclined on the banks of the river which flowed near his home, the Royal Palace near the city of Eternos. Next to him a fishing rod rested against a nearby rock. "Man, this is great," he said to Cringer who was laying down next to him.

The green tiger raised his head. "You can say that again Adam. I prefer this to fighting Skeletor and his army any day," the tiger replied lazily. "So when are you going to catch me a fish?"

The prince let out a roar of laughter. "Cringe, you know you're always hungry," he replied as he checked the rod. When the float bobbed he shouted, "I got one, Cat!" He struggled a bit to reel in the catch.

"Oh boy, oh boy! I hope it's a big trout!" Cringer exclaimed as he watched the battle with growing excitement.

"Nearly got it," Adam muttered to himself as the bob neared the river bank. Eventually he won the battle and his prize; a large haddock which hung suspended in mid-air at the end of the line. "Well, it's not a trout cat," he replied with an apologetic tone.

Drooling the tiger eyed the fish hungrily. "Oh well, I'm so hungry I'll eat it anyway."

The prince killed it before extracting the hook from its mouth. He glanced at Cringer who was still drooling.

'I could give it to him but I've got to check that paperwork for Teela,' he thought as he placed the fish in a nearby bucket. "Sorry cat, this is for Teela. I promised her a fresh fish dinner tonight. I also promised Teela I'd get the guards' paperwork sorted before her meeting with Father this afternoon. Let's get back home."

Noticing the look of disappointment on the tiger's face, the prince smiled down at his good friend.

"Sorry cat. Tell you what. I'll ask Chef Allen to save you the head and whatever he doesn't cook. Deal?" Adam offered before walking away toward the waiting Wind Raider.

"But I wanted it all! You can always catch her another one," the tiger complained before dejectedly following after his master.

At the palace, Adam headed toward the kitchen when he noticed Teela walking down the corridor towards him. "Uh…hi, Tee." 'I hope she doesn't want the paperwork already. I have not finished checking it yet,' his mind worriedly scolded.

She walked over to him, a stern expression on her face. "Adam! Just where have you been all morning?" she demanded, placing her left hand on her hip and poking him in the chest with her finger.

He lifted the bucket and showed her the fish inside it. "Fishing. I did promise you fresh fish for dinner tonight, remember?"

The captain of the royal guard sighed. "You did but I thought you would have gotten one from one of the fishermen at the market. You do have duties to attend to," she reminded him, her voice laced with irritation.

Adam smiled. "I would have but I thought you would have preferred one that I caught myself." 'Looks like she doesn't want the papers as yet,' he thought in relief.

She shook her head and replied, "I appreciate the thought Adam however you missed today's training session." She smirked adding, "Now, I'll have to go tougher on you tomorrow." She quickly glanced at her wrist as her com-link beeped. "Oh, I need that paperwork you promised you would complete by 1pm please."

Nodding his acknowledgement, he watched as she quickly turned and walked away to answer the call. "Dad?"

When she was gone, he continued toward the kitchen to hand the chef the haddock.

As he left the kitchen a small explosion reverberated in the hallway. A bit shaken, he sighed and picked himself off of the floor and rubbed his arm. 'I'd better go check it out,' he mused worriedly.

The alarm sounded as he rushed into a nearby room. After a quick check to ensure it was empty, the prince pulled his sword out of the scabbard on his back. 'Hope this doesn't take long,' he thought before chanting, "By the power of Greyskull!" The familiar surge of power surrounded his body instantly transforming him. "I have the power!" he finished.

"Adam? What the...?"

He froze. He knew that voice.

'No, it can't be!' his mind shouted as he turned around and saw Teela standing there, her mouth slightly open in shock. 'Damn, it was her. I'm caught!' He looked over at her unsure as to what to say. He realised she was bleeding and her left arm was hanging limp.

"Teela, where did you come from?" he said looking at her. 'What do I do?' his mind panicked.

She opened her mouth wider and spoke, "Adam, is that really you? When, err, how... are you... He-Man?"

"Well…," the hero scratched his head unsure of himself. He opened his mouth to speak but she suddenly fell forward.

He-Man rushed toward her catching her just before her face collided with the floor. She was unconscious so he carried her to a sofa in the room and gently laid her down. The alarm continued but he ignored it; his concern for Teela taking precedence. 'Please be okay, Tee,' he thought as he started checking her for injuries. He discovered she had a broken arm and a couple of cuts on her torso and arms. Stepping away from her and looking around the room, he noticed that a couple of lockers were destroyed indicating that this was the location of the explosion. 'Why here? It would have caused no damage here,' he mused.

There was no sign of anyone else in the vicinity so he breathed a sigh of relief. "Looks like He-Man's not needed after all." He called Man-At-Arms on his com-link.

"Duncan, I'm in the rest room by the kitchens. There has been an explosion here. No sign of any intruders."

"Yeah, I am aware of the explosion and have dispatched guards to investigate. They are on their way now. Is there any sign of Teela? Her com-link is not online. Last I heard she was investigating the source of strange readings in that room."

"Yes I am with her now. I don't know how to tell you this."

"What is it He-Man. Is my daughter alright?"

"Duncan, your daughter has been hurt in the blast. I'm taking her to the infirmary now."

"I understand. Thank you for letting me know. I will come to check on her as soon as I can."

He let the power return as the alarm stopped. 'Don't worry Tee. I'll get you to medical,' he thought as he leaned down and lifted her up in his arms. He rushed out of the room toward the infirmary and, passing the guards, he rushed down the corridor.

As he entered the infirmary cradling Teela in his arms, she weakly opened her eyes. "Adam? Where are we?"

Adam's heart lifted; she was awake! "Teela? Are you alright? We're in the infirmary. You have a broken arm and you've been badly hurt. I checked you out and found some bad cuts on your body." He smiled down at her but she didn't reply so he continued.

"When I left the kitchen I felt the explosion so I rushed into the room to investigate. I found you crumpled on the floor unconscious. So after checking for injuries, I brought you here." She still did not reply so he realised she once again fell unconscious.

A doctor came over and noticed Teela unconscious in his arms. "I am sorry for the delay my prince. Follow me," he stated urgently.

'Great. It would have to be Doc Brown, her old boyfriend,' Adam's mind muttered sarcastically as he followed the doctor toward the Royal Wing. Brown pointed at a door. "Lay her in there. I will be in shortly to examine her."

He gingerly placed her on the bed and watched unwilling to leave her side as the physician came in a moment later with a nurse. After the examination, he started to stitch her cuts closed. The nurse applied healing salve to aid in the healing process.

"My prince, she has some cuts which will be healed in a couple of hours. I just need to X-ray her arm to determine the severity of the damage to the bone."

Nodding, he helped roll her bed to the X-ray room as his mind pleaded, 'Please be alright, Tee.'

The doctor placed a cloak over Teela's torso and handed one to Adam. "We're doing the X-ray now. Put it on. It will protect you from the radiation," the doctor explained as Adam complied.

After the X-rays were done, they returned to her room finding Duncan waiting inside and pacing. "I came as quickly as I could lad!" He glanced at Teela. "How is she?"

The doctor walked over to Man-At-Arms and informed him of Teela's condition, adding, "The X-rays should be ready now. I'll be right back," he stated before leaving the room.

Walking over to Teela's bedside, Duncan stood next to Adam. "I just got preliminary findings on the explosion. It seems to be a low yield explosive used by the anti-royalist movement."

The prince nodded then looked back at Teela. "She's in a coma," he stated in shock, his eyes filled with fear. 'What if she doesn't awake? We could lose her,' his mind started panicking.

"I know. Doc Brown just filled me in," Duncan replied, his face lined with worry." Take a rest lad. I'll stay with her."

He shook his head, "No, I want to be here when she awakens. I want to make sure she is alright." 'Please, I hope she awakes soon.' His thoughts were interrupted as his com-link beeped. He debated ignoring it but raised his wrist and answered it. "Adam here."

"Son, where are you?" his father's voice sounded.

"In the infirmary. Teela was injured by a small explosion so I brought her here for treatment," he explained.

"That explains why I am unable to contact her. She was due here for a meeting at one."

'The meeting… I all but forgot about that,' he realised. "I have Teela's paperwork. I shall bring it over right away."

"You have it? I understand you want to be with Teela, but I need that paperwork. Be sure to bring them to me immediately. Commander Chris and I are starting the meeting shortly."

'Better hurry,' he thought. "Yes, Father." He closed the com-link and looked at Duncan.

"I need to go to my office and will check on her in a couple of hours."

"I'll let you know if her condition changes," Duncan replied.

Adam thanked him before leaving medical.

In his study, he quickly pulled Teela's paperwork from his to-do pile. 'I swear this pile is getting larger every time I look at it,' his mind muttered as he left his study and headed for the meeting room where his father was waiting.

Inside he handed the paperwork to his father, "How is she, son?"

"She is in a coma. Man-At Arms is with her now," he replied.

"Son, I understand you care deeply for Teela. We all do." Randor placed a hand on Adams shoulder. "However, as heir to this kingdom you need to put your feelings aside, so I expect to see the urgent files completed and returned to me before 5."

"Yes father, I shall make a start on them right now," he said before leaving the meeting room and heading back to his study. 'I'd better deal with the urgent stuff then,' he decided.

Sitting at his desk, he pulled the first file and started reading it.

After a couple of minutes, he was still staring at the first page; his mind was unable to concentrate on the task. Every time he tried to read it he kept wondering about Teela and how she was faring. Closing the file he threw it back on top of the to-do pile. He got up and stretched his muscles. 'I can't concentrate on these trivial tasks Father assigns me'.

He left his office and headed back to medical. He had to see how Teela was doing.

I would like to once again thank hooked and NelumboGryffindor for their help with this chapter.
