    Skeletor watched Hawkmoth, not sure if he liked to tone of the words. It sounded like something Evil-Lyn might say, and while she had her uses, she was not the most loyal of those under his control. He would be wary around the new villan, though his powers were certainly something that could be used for his plans.
    "Easily Remedied." Skeletor waved at Grell. "You, take us to such a place."


    "Yeah, he's built so much stuff for the king, and he fights Skeletor, and he's powerful," Orko enthused. "He's pretty much good at everything."
    Orko levitated higher, looking around the cafeteria. "Alright, I'm ready to go," He said, looking far more determined than the situation called for.

    Skeletor felt aggravated as he cast his skeletal visage in shadow once more. On Eternia, he would not even bother. Everyone knew who he was. Townsfolk would recognize and fear him even without the constant reminder of his unnatural existence. Secrecy and stealth had simply not been his style for a long time, not since...
    "Are we almost there, Grell?" He said brusquely, growing impatient.


    "Well yeah, that to, but I meant--" Orko stopped in the middle of his sentence as William rose from his chair. "Bye Will! Have fun!"

    "Yes, well," Skeletor said in way of explination, "It's Grell. I'm afraid it will have to do for now." He brushed past Grell and into the building.
    "A simple spell to keep eavesdroppers at bay...and..," A burst of magic ripped away from where Skeletor stood, and he lowered his hand and turned to the others.


    "Right!" With movements like a fish swimming, Orko soared across the cafeteria. Once he reached the doors, he stopped and went back. "Umm, I'll just follow you."

    OOC: Do I bring in Liz and Patty now? Side note: Twilight is just breaking my heart right now. :c


    Skeletor walked to the center of the room, and with a wave of his hand summoned a transparent replica of Death City.
    "Those who put Medusa in the mirrors currently reside here," He explained, pointing at where the acedemy was on the map.
    "There is a sorceress among them: Twilight Sparkle. She is the one who first trapped Medusa, so it stands to reason that she will be able to take her out. With your powers, Hawkmoth, I considered you using your akumas to turn her to my uses...But no. The creature is too...even-tempered for suck a thing," Skeletor said grudgingly. "Shame, as she does posses talent."
    "Instead, you will use your akumas to make someone evil, and use them as a distraction while Grell kidnaps Twilight. She will then open the prison under threat of her life. I will overpower Medusa and force her to create ways to return to our realms...then kill her, of course."


    "Hiya! I'm Orko, I'm a wizard," Orko said as he flew over to the teacher's desk. "Ooh, what's over here?"
    Orko ducked behind the desk and began to rummage. A couple moments later held up a stack of papers that he had pulled out of a drawer. "Wow, someone's been cheating on the tests. They have all the answers right here," He said, bemused, and turned around the papers to show the class. "See? Gosh, someone should tell the teacher."

    OOC: Um...Just watched the twelfth episode of the second season. XD My family says I am watching too much Soul Eater. Don't they know there is no such thing? (By the way, won't be posting much for about three-four hours, I'm volunteering at an animal shelter :3)



    "Wait." Skeletor said after considering both options. We must get inside the acedemy first. That will be easier to do when it is dark as there will be less people still there. After that, we find her and position ourselves nearby while you change her into an evil witch." He closed his fist in the air in front of him dramatically.


    "Oh..." Orko's eyes widened in realization. "So I just put them back?" He looked at the papers again. "Which drawer do they go in?"
    He looked away again as the door to the classroom opened, revealing too girls. Both were blonde and blue-eyed, and wearing similar outfits.
    "Look," The shorter one with bright blonde hair giggled and pointed, pulling on the taller one's arm. "It's Crona!"
    "Crona?" The taller one with dark blonde hair looked up to confirm what was said. "You're baaa..."
    Her eyebrows narrowed and her eyes widened, and she raised a finger to point at Orko. "...What is that!?"

    "Grell," He started, saying the reaper's name for what felt like the fiftieth time that day through clearly ground teeth. "I am not going shopping with you." He walked to the other side of of the room with his arms folded over his chest, wishing he had some sort of throne so he could tower above the others.


    Shrugging, Orko picked a drawer at random and gently placed the papers back in it. He shot up afterwards and did a couple loops, taking advantage of the spacious ceiling.


    "This guy crashed his bike into a food stand outside," Patty explained, leading the way to their meister as her sister trailed behind. "It was kinda loud, so we went out to see."
    "And I actually thought that would be the strangest thing to happen to me today," Liz sat down to the left of Kid with a resigned look on her face as she pulled out her books.

    OOC: Which youtuber? I watched Jacksepticeye play it, got hooked pretty much instantly.


    "It does not matter." Skeletor brushed his arm over the transparent Death City replica, causing it to vanish. His tone grew in amusement as he continued to speak. "In my world, I have far more minions than him; I barely even need him at all for this plan! And, besides...he knows what will happen to him if he betrays me."
    Skeletor paused, picturing the moment. He threw back his head and laughed, a cackle that only grew in volume instead of fading.


    "It was stolen?" Liz repeated. "Wait, did you see who took it? The guy we saw had long red hair and dressy clothes..," She trailed off, looking concerned. Beside her, Patty doodled on what appeared to be her homework.

    OOC: Small timeskip, or a pause on the bad guys? It just seems like the right time about now. :3


    Eventually, Skeletor stopped laughing. Quietly, he made his way out of the room, heading for another floor of the building. He did not want to be around Hawkmoth for too long; They way he used his akumas to see inside others was so curious, and he did not know how far the powers went. Hawkmoth was able to tell someone's feelings, their weakness from so far away. Once he was out of the other villain's sight, he formed a shield sphere around himself.


    "Sorry Soul, we'd have done something if we knew," Liz said as she leaned back in her chair. Noticing Orko flying around, she straightened and leaned onto the desk instead. "I'm never getting an explanation for that, am I?" She muttered to herself.

    OOC: Alright! And yeah, I did, thought it was good...Why do you ask? As if I don't know lol


    Once night came, Skeletor silently left the apartment complex and followed the streets of Death City until they reached the academy. Standing still outside the imposing architecture, he glanced up at the rising moon and nodded. Now, just after the sun had set was the oppritune time. He could only pray that the other two ceased their foolishness long enough to realized the same and meet him there.


    Orko, who had spent every spare moment between classes tellling people about his plans for entertainment, was completely bubbling over with excitement by the time school ended, and with hardly a second to waste, he disappeared afterwards. An hour later, he knocked on the door to Twilight's room.


    Back in their highly symmetrical shared residence, Liz was just finishing with helping Patty with her written homework. She stood, cracked her knuckles then pushed her chair back into place.
    "Hey, now that we're done, can we go see that alien guy's show?" Her sister asked brightly. "You heard about that, right?"
    Liz stared off into the distance, remembering the twenty times she had heard of this.
    "Yeah, sort of, maybe," She said, giving a half-shrug with her arm. Predictably, Patty laughed at this.

    Admittedly curious, Skeletor grabbed a bag from Grell and looked inside. "Grell, even if I did agree to play dress up with you, how exactly would I hide the fact that I have a rather, say...unique, easily recognizable, apperance?" He asked dryly, closing the bag.


    "Um..." Orko stared up at Twilight, looking worried. "...Brought you these!" He reached behind his back and conjured a bouquet of roses. He thrust the still shimmering flowers at her hopefully.


    "It does seem kind of far fetched, but if Crona and Maka say it happened, I guess it must have," Liz rested a hand on her hip as she spoke. "Really weird that the purple haired girl used to be a unicorn, though. Maybe that's why she was so quiet."

    Skeletor took the mask from Grell roughly and inspected it. Though he was relunctant to admit Grell had done a good job, he was finding it hard to discover something wrong with the disguises. Though he heavily disliked dressing as the rifraff around him, there was something he...appreciated about the idea of wearing a skull mask to conceal that his face was a skull.
    "...Fine," He said grudgingly. "These are suitable to my needs." Without further comment, as he was loathe to actually praise the reaper, he sulked off to change.


    "Well, yeah, but..," Orko figeted with his hands, voice growing quieter and more serious. "You're really lonely, so I wanted to come and see you. Are you sure there isn't anything I can do?" He asked pleadingly.


    "Lonely?" Liz said, then cringed. "Yeah...come to think of it, I don't remember Crona mentioning a portal back."
    "Hey, but she's got magic, why can't she use that to go home?" Patty asked, injecting herself into the conversation. Liz paused to consider.

    Skeletor walked back to the other two, now dressed in a dark suit, shoes, and gloves, the only bright color being the white mask. He did like how it looked, but in Skeletor's opinion it was not purple enough.
    "Hawkmoth. Put on your disguise," He ordered, pointing at the villain.


    "...Okay," Orko said reluctantly, shoulders slumping. "I'll see you then, I guess. Bye." He drifted away, glancing back at her once before he went out of sight.


    "Aw, poor horsie," Patty cooed sympathetically as she opened the front door.
    Liz rushed over. "Uh, Patty, you can't just go around calling her a horse, she's a human now, see?" She explained quickly.
    "But Sis, she was a horse," Patty pointed out, causing Liz to shake her head.
    "Look, just don't call her that, okay?" She instructed. Looking for a change in topic, she glanced bsck at Kid. "We should get going, it might have already started."

    Skeletor regarded him. It had occured to him that there might be some sort of magic in Hawkmoth's methods that he could emulate, and use to his advantage. If there was a way he could turn the do-gooder He-man's power against Eternia...He would gain such a destructive tool, such unspeakable power. Skeletor felt his sockets light up.
    "Go right ahead, Hawkmoth," He said, watching intently.


    Once having navigated himself out of the stone labyrinth, Orko zigzagged back to the ballroom, becoming little more than a blur of primary colors until he was a second before slamming into the doors. He cracked his knuckles and went in.


    Patty burst into a fit of giggles at this elucidation of the facts, and Liz exhaled deeply.
    "Well, unicorn pony doesn't sound as bad," She conceded, taking her place at one side of Kid while Patty skipped over to the other, and headed for the academy.

    OOC: XD I can picture that so well, Skeletot would be such a brat. (Also, really late post today, apologizes.)


    Skeletor had trouble pinpointing where the power came from, to his disappointment; It clearly wasn't originating from Hawkmoth himself, if he needed the suit, but Skeletor could not sense magic as others did.
    "Is it done?" He asked, leaning forward. "Is she evil?"


    Orko started performing. He started with things that were more 'tricks' than magic--like juggling--but upon inferring that most people were there to see actual spellwork, switched gears completely, and turned his deck of cards into a falcon. Heartened by the spell's sucess, he then went on to something called 'indoor fireworks,' which turned about as well as expected.
    "Um, don't panic, I can fix it!" Orko jittered as miniature explosions of color rocked the room, starting several small fires. "Just let me..."


    "Okay, this was a bad idea!" Liz screamed over a nearby blast as she tried to put out her hat, which had burst into flames."We're not doing this again!"
    "Are you talking to him or us?" Patty wondered out loud.

    OOC: Wha, no, don't apologize; You're still posting in the daytime, I'm starting to drift towards the middle of the night. XD (Swanfeathers are nocturnal creatures.)


    "You'd better." Skeletor said coldly as he stormed up the first few of the numerous steps to the DWMA. "Go disguse yourself, I will go on ahead and ensure everything is appropriate for Medusa's punishment." He hunched his shoulders forward, as though he were sulking.


    "Wait..." Orko said quietly. He left the stage and went to Crona, flinching every couple of feet as a another blast of color went off, thouh they did seem to be getting smaller and less destructive. "...I think something's wrong. We should go find Will!"

    "Draw the attention away from us, I don't care how." He waved a hand flippantly. "Kidnap, kill...Do anything you want, as long as it's away from us," He asserted, looking at Grell. Somehow, he had gained the ability to glare through a mask.


    "It's magic!" Orko exclaimed, ingnoring Kid. "It's some kind of spell, I think, but I can't tell where it's coming from or what it's doing. I mean I could, if I went into some kind of trance, but..."
    Liz glanced between Crona and Orko, looking confused.
    "Don't worry Kid, I think they're stopping," Patty said hopefully, patting her meister on the arm. "Just really slowly!"
