He-Man

And the Masters of the Universe.

| am Adam,

Prince of Eternia and defender of the secrets

of Castle Grayskull.

This is Cringer, my fearless friend.

Fabulous secret powers were revealed to me

the day | held aloft my magic sword

and said, "By the power of Grayskull..."

He-Man

"...1 have the power!"

Cringer became the mighty Battle Cat

and | became He-Man,

the most powerful man in the universe.

Only three others share this secret,

our friends the Sorceress, Man-At-Arms and Orko.

Together we defend Castle Grayskull

from the evil forces of Skeletor.

He-Man

Hawke!

Stratos, what are you doing here?

Just checking on the force field generator. Something the matter?

No, | was just on my way to do the same thing.

Well, I'll leave the maintenance

of our equipment to the professionals then.

| don't mean to do your job for you.

Well, after alll, you are the leader.

Everything secure?

It's quiet as can be out there.

No, wait. Skeletor.

Is he crazy? Nothing can get through our force shields.

Nothing could get through our force shields

but they aren't working.

What, the defenses are down?

Completely.

Our defense shields have failed.

We'll have to fight Skeletor without them.

We've already begun. Good.

Keep at it, I'm going to try to repair the shields.

He-Man

Somebody deliberately smashed it.

Onward, onward, victory is ours.

Release it.

Smoke screen, fire.

It's impossible.

We can't get through that smoke.

You imbeciles, you should've acted faster.

Those birdbrains have something | want.

Now it's too late. But, I'll be back.

Got to fix the force field generator.

So, Stratos, you wrecked our defenses.

He-Man

Today we were nearly defeated by Skeletor and why?

Because our defenses failed because of you, Stratos.

You don't understand, | was trying to repair the generator, not wreck it.

That's what you say now.

Who else but our glorious leader

would've had such easy access

to the heart of Avion's defenses?

Bird people, there can be only

one punishment for such treachery.

Banish him, take him far, far away.

Banish him, banish him.

My friends, | beg you, don't be so hasty.

Being sent away is a cruel punishment.

After a few days away from the Egg of Avion,

| will lose the power of flight.

As you deserve for betraying us.

Get him out of here, we don't want him anymore.

You have heard the will of the bird people of Avion.

Go, leave us.

But, | am innocent.

You have heard the people, go.

Very well, you can all fight Skeletor on your own.

After all the years I've worked

for the safety of Avion, how could they do this to me?

I've been flying for hours, I'll rest in this forest.

Wait a minute, this isn't a forest, it's a nest.

The Carrock.

He-Man

| love getting out in the country like this.

| like to see nature close up, far from the city.

Speaking of getting away, duck.

Stratos, hey, he's in trouble.

By the power of Grayskull...

He-Man

He-Man

He-Man

...| have the power!

He-Man

Yike.

He-Man

Take the controls, Orko.

He-Man

He-Man

He-Man, where did you come from?

| was just in the neighborhood and thought I'd drop in.

It's still coming.

That creature's not evil.

| invaded its nest by accident.

Orko, do you know the old saying,

"Honey works better than vinegar"?

Yeah, but where's the honey?

Up there.

He-Man

| think we've made a friend for life.

But tell me, Stratos, how did you get into this predicament?

My predicament is worse than you know, He-Man.

| have been exiled from Avion.

What in the world for?

Today Skeletor attacked the city.

Our defense shield was sabotaged and | was blamed.

Do you know what exile means to a bird person?

| will lose the power of flight.

Of course, you'll be outside

the range of the Egg of Avion's power.

My only hope of saving my wings

is to find the real culprit and restore my good name.

But who would've done such a terrible thing in the first place?

| don't know, but everyone's against me, I'm alone.

No, you're not.

I'm with you, Stratos.

I'm very grateful, He-Man.

Let me come too, He-Man.

Sure thing, Orko.

He-Man

There it is, attack.

This time we shall not fail.

It's Skeletor. Have they finished

repairing the defense shields?

No, we must man the defenses.

Fire smoke screens.

It's not working.

Now all of our defenses have been sabotaged.

Nothing can stop me now.

It's done, the Egg of Avion is mine.

Soon we'll all have wings.

He has the egg, we're doomed.

But who sabotaged our equipment?

It couldn't have been Stratos.

Have you seen Hawke?

I've looked everywhere, she's gone.

The egg is gone, we're too late.

We've gotta go to Snake Mountain and get it back.

I'll bet you anything

Skeletor's hidden the egg

and he'll keep it hidden until the bird people

have lost the ability to fly.

Then it could be anywhere on the planet.

How will we ever find it?

There's only way.

We need the help of the Sorceress.

To Castle Grayskull.

He-Man

Yes, He-Man, | had suspected

something was amiss in Avion.

From what you have told me,

| believe | know where Skeletor

may have hidden the Egg of Avion.

A short while ago, | sensed a tremendous amount

of energy coming, coming from the Demon Zone.

The Demon Zone? Ugh, sounds scary.

Indeed, Orko.

It is the lair of Skeletor's ally, Whiplash.

Whiplash? Then that must be

where Skeletor's hidden the egg.

| believe so.

But how do we get there?

There is only one entrance to the Demon Zone,

the Mountains of Doom.

At the foot of the highest mountain,

you will find the gateway to the Demon Zone.

But open the door with care, He-Man,

you must not let any of the demons escape.

There's the entrance,

just as the Sorceress said.

What do we do now, say "Open sesame"?

I'll have to force it.

Hurry, you two.

Hey, wait for me.

He-Man.

The door.

I'll have to smash it.

Wait, remember what the Sorceress said.

That's right, we can't risk releasing any of the demons.

Orko, you'll have to wait for us.

Okay, I'll guard the Wind Raider or something.

Let's get moving.

He-Man

Kraal, king of demons, why have you summoned me?

You guard the Egg of Avion for Skeletor, do you not?

| do.

You might be interested to know

that He-Man and Stratos are here, now,

in the Demon Zone seeking the egg.

He-Man?

Thank you for this information, Kraal.

There is more, outside the gateway is another.

So, Orko's here too, eh?

Why not take care of the lot of them.

Beware, Whiplash, we only have the power

to open the door to the world above us twice each year.

If you do so now, you'd better have a good reason.

Taking care of those pests

is good enough reason for me.

I'll take care of He-Man

and my prized pet will deal with that half-pint sorcerer, Orko.

The Egg of Avion could be anywhere in this maze.

We'll find it.

| wonder why this place is called the Demon Zone?

| haven't seen any demons.

It's been nothing but smooth sailing so far.

Uh-oh, | spoke too soon.

This sure is dull.

Huh, He-Man?

Yikes!

Come on.

He-Man, I'm starting to lose the power of flight.

Then we mustn't stop, walk with me.

| hope Orko's all right.

Phew, all clear.

Whiplash.

So, He-Man, you've come to pay me a visit?

I've come to return the Egg of Avion

to its rightful owners.

You won't get it, stay back.

Come on, He-Man.

Let me go.

I'll take care of this.

Help, let me alone, you snake in the grass.

Boy, am | glad to see you.

Catch.

| wish He-Man would get back.

What's the matter?

As a bird man, I've got a thing about cages.

Hawke!

| was captured, when Skeletor attacked Avion.

But what would he want with you?

|... | don't know, please.

Just help me get free.

Why don't you admit it, Hawke.

It was you who sabotaged Avion's defenses.

You made a deal with him, didn't you?

No wonder you were so quick to accuse me.

Skeletor had me bring the egg to this place,

but instead of the riches he promised,

he made me one of Whiplash's pets.

Which is what you deserve

for betraying the people of Avion.

Well, let's get you free.

After the crimes she's committed?

Everyone deserves a second chance, Stratos,

and besides, right now we need all the help we can get.

Once we've returned the Egg of Avion,

Hawke can face the justice of the bird people.

If you'll help me get free,

I'll take you to where they're hiding the egg.

Why should | believe you?

You'll just double-cross us again.

| want to make up for the wrong I've done.

I'll gladly accept whatever punishment

the bird people feel is fair.

Just set me free from this terrible cage.

Very well, the sight of a fellow bird person

in a cage is more than | can stand.

You won't regret this, Stratos.

I'd better not.

He-Man

Now to find that muscle-headed moron.

| can feel my powers of flight returning.

We must be near the egg.

The egg is in the next chamber,

but it's guarded by one of Whiplash's pets.

Good grief.

Let's grab it while that thing's still asleep.

Too late, you two distract it and I'll grab the egg.

You think you've won, don't you?

Well, you've lost. If Skeletor can't have the egg,

neither can Avion. This missile's programmed

to seek it out and destroy it.

So much for your missile, Whiplash.

Wait, Whiplash, let them go.

Why?

Because, you fool, the only way out for them

is to break through the door to the upper world.

We will have total freedom

to spread our evil to the world above.

What now?

Remember what the Sorceress said, we can't break the door.

We have no choice.

He-Man, you made it.

Yes, with trouble right behind us.

If our friend can force that dragon

back down the hole, | think | can reseal it.

That oughta keep those demons down where they belong.

Now, let's get this back to where it belongs.

He-Man

| accused Stratos of sabotage,

but it was | who betrayed you.

Yeah, we want Stratos.

Banish her.

No, banishment is too cruel for any bird person.

Hawke has seen the error of her ways.

She helped save the egg.

She has my trust.

But she will be stripped of all rank

and placed on punishment detail

until she has earned yours again.

Bird people of Avion, our precious egg has returned,

and with it we have a new friend and protector.

And let us give thanks to our best friend, He-Man.

Today, Stratos of Avion learned the true value of forgiveness.

When someone does something we don't like,

it can be hard to forgive.

It's at times like these that we must remember,

everyone deserves a second chance.

We all make mistakes and when we do,

it's nice to have a friend

who will understand and give us another chance.

Right, my friend?

Right.

See you next time.
