Yuko ran home as fast as she could. She rushed into her bedroom and opened a chest. On the top of the chest was the Valis Sword.

   Yuko took the sword and shouted, "Valis Transformation!" With that phrase, her clothes changed. She was now wearing her Valis Soldier uniform: white shoulder pads, a yellow halter top, a white skirt, and red boots.

   Yuko then shouted, "to the Dream Realm!" A white light surrounded her as she was taken from the Earth realm to the Dream realm.

   Adam was walking through the Fertile Plains with Orko and Cringer. Farmers waved or bowed to the prince as he walked past them. The farmers were tending their crops of carrots, cabbage, green beans, and other vegetables.

   "It sure is nice to get out of the palace," Adam said. "All of this fresh air is great."

   "I agree," Orko said. "It's times like these that I wonder what Eternia would be like without Skeletor."

   "And I wonder at times like these what Skeletor is doing," Adam replied. "Sometimes it seems times like these are the calm before the storm."

   Just then they heard a scream. Adam looked in that direction. "And it looks like a new storm is coming in right now."

   He looked around to see if anybody was around. When he didn't see anyone, he pulled out the Power Sword and said "By the Power of Grayskull!", changing into He-Man.

   Cringer jumped into some of the plants, hoping that he would avoid that terrible transformation. Unfortunately, He-Man pointed the sword at Cringer through the plants, turnng him into Battle Cat.

   He-Man climbed on top of Battle Cat. "Let's see what's causing those people to scream." He then took off on Battle Cat.

   When they got there, they saw what appeared to be a pair of knights destroying the fields and causing the farmers to run in panic.

   "I don't know who you are, but you had better stop terrorizing innocent people," He-Man shouted to the knights as his dismounted Battle Cat.

   "Why should we let some muscle bound freak tell us what to do." one of them said in a low voice. "We only serve Lord Gares!"

   The knights charged He-Man, drawing black swords as they approached him. He-Man threw one of the knights over to Battle Cat. The knight fell right into his claws, which caused the armor to fall to the ground, revealing nobody inside.

   The other knight trie to slash He-Man. He-Man parried with the Power Sword, which destroyed the sword. The knight also fell into armored pieces.

   "Who were those men?" He-Man asked. "Skeletor doesn't have that type of power."

   "No", a woman's voice said. Out of a nearby forest, a young woman wearing a short skirt and halter top approached them. She carried a sword in one hand. "Not unless this 'Skeletor' is a person from the Dark realm."

  "Who are you?" He-Man asked.

   "I'm Yuko Ahso, the Valis Soldier," the woman said. "And this place is in serious danger."
