Hex and the woman replaced with
Sweet Bee and Perfuma. The tentacles are replaced by
thorny vines, with little bits of Whispering Woods flora torn up here and
there.
The
usual trade dress.

Panel
1: Sweet Bee flying through the Whispering Woods.
Sweet
Bee: Of all the times for Perfuma to wander off!
Panel
2: Sweet Bee performs a graceful maneuver between the trees, showcasing her
aerial agility.
Sweet
Bee: With the current situation, she should know better than to stray from Brightmoon!
Panel 3: Sweet Bee flying into the
distance and the sunlight.
Sweet
Bee: I swear, when I find her, that idiot flowerchild's
in serious trouble!

Panel
1: Perfuma running through the woods, terrified, her
arm burnt from a laser blast. She's dodging another blast, crystal shards, and
a massive green fist attached to a stretchy arm. She's clearly being attacked
by the Slime Sisters.
Caption
(placed atop the page): The Story Thus Far: Using Horde Slime, Hordak has enslaved Peekablue,
and used her powers to capture and turn several other Rebels! Now, Hordak enacts the second phase of his plan...
Caption:
Fear.
Caption:
It is an emotion unfamiliar to the always cheerful Perfuma.
Caption:
She's not enjoying her crash course on the subject.
SFX:
CHOOM! (for the laser)
SFX:
TSH! (for the crystals)
SFX:
SWOOSH! (for the swinging fist)
Perfuma: This... This
can't be happening!
Page

Panel
1: Perfuma turns, instinctively creating a wall of
flowers between her and her attackers. A laser blast strikes it, setting it
ablaze.
Perfuma: STARLA! YOU'VE
GOT TO STOP THIS! I'm your FRIEND!
SFX:
SCORCH!
Panel
2: Perfuma staggers back as Jewelstar
punches through the burning flowers, rending the makeshift shield apart. We see
the other Slime Sisters are right behind her.
Jewelstar: The Master has
ordered your capture.
Starla: His will is
all.
Panel 3: Perfuma
creating multiple trees to separate herself from her enslaved friends.
Perfuma: I don't want
to hurt you!
Panel
4: Tallstar's massive fist shatters the trees like
they're nothing. Perfuma staggers and ducks to avoid
the debris.
SFX:
SCRAKKKK!!!
Tallstar: You cannot
escape.
Page

Panel
1: Jewelstar slamming her hand on the ground as Starla's hands glow as bright as the sun. Perfuma's on the ground, recovering from the last attack.
Perfuma: You can't do
this! You can't let Hordak control you!
Panel
2: Perfuma's horrified to see the ground under her
transformed into solid crystal.
Perfuma: I've got to
warn everyone! I just have to- NO!
Panel
3: Starla's light is reflected off the crystals,
blinding Perfuma.
Starla: No earth to grow, no plants. No escape.
Panel
4: Tallstar's arms wrap around the blinded Perfuma, binding them to her sides.
Tallstar: You will join
us.
Perfuma: NO! LET ME GO!
Page
5:
Panel
1: Tallstar's stretchy arms cover Perfuma's
mouth and nose. Perfuma's in the middle of
protesting. Jewelstar and Starla
are flanking her.
Perfuma: You can't
MMMPH!!!
Jewelstar: We must.
Panel 2: Perfuma
passing out from lack of air.
Tallstar: Mission complete.
We have Perfuma.
Perfuma: Mmmm...
Panel
3: The Slime Sisters going back the way they came, Tallstar
carrying the unconscious Perfuma. We see the still
burning flower shield.
Starla: The Master awaits.
Panel
4: Same exact spot, but we see Sweet Bee flying in. Several minutes have
passed, since the flower shield is burned up completely.
Sweet
Bee: What... What HAPPENED here?!
Page
6:
Panel
1: Sweet Bee takes in the devastation.
Sweet
Bee: There was a fight here... Perfuma for sure, going by the plants. But what's with these green
crystals? They almost look like...
Panel
2: Sweet Bee following the path of destruction in the same direction the Slime
Sisters went.
Sweet
Bee: No, that's impossible! But whatever's happened, Perfuma
needs my help!
Panel
3: Sweet Bee flies out of the Whispering Woods, seeing a Horde Transport
parked. Troopers are carrying the unconscious Perfuma
aboard. The Slime Sisters are already seated.
Sweet
Bee: What in the world?! Why are the Star Sisters with the Horde, and why are
they green?!
Panel
4: Sweet Bee is blasted from behind by two yellow energy blasts.
Sweet
Bee: AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!
SFX:
ZAPPO!
Page

Panel
1: Sweet Bee crashes to the ground.
SFX:
WHUMP!
Panel
2: Dazed, she looks up to see Mantenna standing over
her, enjoying his victory.
Sweet
Bee: Wha-?
Mantenna: You must be
confused, Rebel. Don't worry.
Panel
3: Same, but his eye stalks extend and glow.
Mantenna: You'll
understand soon enough.
Sweet
Bee: NO!
Panel
4: All yellow.
SFX:
ZAPPO!
Page
8:
Panel
1: Blurry, from Sweet Bee's perspective, we see an equally barely conscious Perfuma, manacled to the Slime Pit, her arms above her
head. The Pit wall is to her left.
Sweet
Bee: Ohhh... My head...
Perfuma: Sweet Bee? Are
you okay?
Panel
2: We pull back to see they're BOTH chained into the Pit, facing each other.
Sweet Bee's wings have been tied together. Hordak and
Mantenna are there to mock them.
Hordak: Oh, NEITHER of
you are going to be "okay" EVER AGAIN!
Hordak (connected
bubble): Well done, Mantenna! I sent you out for ONE
annoying whore and you brought back a spare!
Mantenna: Thank you,
Master!
Perfuma: Hordak, what have you done?!
Panel 3: Hordak
sneering at Perfuma, who is clearly afraid. Sweet Bee
watching the two of them.
Hordak: What? No
"Hordikins"? No casual dismissal? Could it
be you FINALLY understand the gravity of the situation?
Sweet
Bee: "Hordikins"?
Hordak: NEVERMIND
THAT!
Panel
4: Both women look up at the claw rises, pinning them into place, and the dino skull begins to tilt down, dripping slime. Mantenna pulls the lever as Hordak
watches.
Sweet
Bee: What's that green stuff?!
Perfuma: I don't know,
but the Star Sisters were the same color!
Sweet
Bee: We can't let it touch us!
Hordak: Mantenna, you have the honor!
SFX:
KA-CHUNK!
Page
9:
Panel
1: Both Sweet Bee and Perfuma combine their powers,
blocking the flow of slime coming down with honeycomb and flowers.
Perfuma: Some
springtime growth should stop it!
Sweet
Bee: And if it doesn't, my honeycomb will!
Panel 2: Their makeshift barrier
dissolving faster than they can replenish it. They're
watching their defense fail even as they try to reinforce it.
Perfuma: It... It's not
holding!
Sweet
Bee: We need to think fast before it-
Panel
3: The barrier shatters completely, and the two rebels are struck by the deluge
of slime.
Both
(big shocked bubble): AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!
SFX:
SPLOOGE!
Panel
4: As their clothes begin to dissolve and their bodies get covered by slime,
they're affected by the slime's aphrodesiac effect.
Caption:
The slime's spell begins taking hold, raising their mutual libidos.
Sweet
Bee: Oh god... It feels... strange...
Perfuma: (pant) It's... making me want... No, need...
Page
10:
Panel
1: Under the effects of the slime, the two Rebels lean in. They're more than
half covered now.
Caption:
With no way to release the mystically induced sexual need, the two doomed
heroines give in to the urges.
Panel
2: The two kiss passionately, paying no mind to the slime that's covered them
almost completely.
Caption:
Under other circumstances, it might be a beautiful thing.
Panel
3: The two, still kissing, are completely covered in the slime.
Caption:
But these are not those circumstances.
Panel
4: The claw recedes into the slime, the manacles release. The two slimed
rebels' arms fall down. They're too covered to make out clearly.
Hordak: And that's two
more sluts for my heroine harem!
Page
11:
Panel
1: Still about half obscured by the excess slime, the two heroines step down
from the pit towards Hordak and Mantenna,
their arms raised before them. Sweet Bee's wings are free of the ropes by now,
and only half-covered. What we can see of them is now as green as the slime
itself.
Hordak: Watch closely,
Mantenna. This is the best part.
Mantenna: Of course!
Panel
2: Slave Sweet Bee and Slave Perfuma revealed!
They're in the standard pose.
Both:
HAIL HORDAK! HAIL THE MASTER! LONG LIVE HORDAK!
Hordak: That makes
seven!
Panel 3: Hordak
walking away with Perfuma, leaving Mantenna with Sweet Bee.
Hordak: As a reward, Mantenna, do whatever you want with Sweet Bee.
Mantenna: Thank you
Master!
Hordak: And then take
her, Vultak, and a small army...
Panel
4: Close on Sweet Bee, the shape of her eyes betraying the horror she feels. Mantenna is beginning to molest her.
Hordak (off panel):
And destroy the Hive! I want every Bee Person in chains or dead by the end of
the day!
Sweet
Bee (thinking): NO!
Page
12:
Panel
1: Mantenna wasting no time beginning to rape the
enslaved Sweet Bee.
Sweet
Bee (thinking): I can't let him conquer by people! But what can I do?!
Panel
2: The rape continues, and we see the same dual imagery we did before. On one
side of the panel is her slimed self, on the other is
her naked flesh tone version.
Sweet
Bee (thinking): I... I can't do anything! I can't even move my pinky! No,
worse...
Panel 3: Same dual imagery. She's nearing a
climax. Mantenna's having the time of his life with
her.
Sweet
Bee (thinking): I can't even focus enough to TRY!
Sweet
Bee (thinking): All I can do..
Panel
4: Back to just Mantenna with Slave Sweet Bee as they
both climax. She LOOKS like she's into it, but there are tears in her eyes.
Mantenna: Take THIS,
Rebel!
Sweet
Bee: AYYYYIEEE!!!!
SFX:
SPLORTT
Sweet
Bee (thinking): is be their slave!
INTERLUDE:
Interlude page. My alter ego, Slime Wizard, directly addressing the audience.
His face is hidden in shadows by his robe and hood, which are the same green we
use for the slime. His hands, the only visible part, are the yellow green of
the toy slime. His eyes are the same red as the Slime Slaves, the only part of
his face we'll ever show.
Slime
Wizard: The following sequence contains disturbing imagery and acts.
Slime
Wizard: Were this avoidable, I would. However, the episode Flowers for Hordak demands this kind of a response in this specific
instance.
Slime
Wizard: Remember, this is a fantasy story. No one is actually being hurt. In
real life this is as wrong as it gets. Violence against women is wrong.
Slime
Wizard: ...Says the guy that's been writing the story full of mind control, sex
slavery, rape, and murder.
Slime
Wizard: ...I'm starting to think this interlude wasn't necessary...
Page

Panel
1: Hordak with Perfuma in
his throneroom.
Hordak: Do you
remember what you did here the last time you visited?
Perfuma: There was dancing.
I made it beautiful.
Panel 2: Hordak
backhanding Perfuma.
Hordak: YOU HUMILIATED
ME!
SFX:
SWAK!
Perfuma: UHH!
Panel 3: Perfuma
lying on the ground. Hordak's letting herself
try to pull herself up. He's looming over her.
Hordak: You singlehandedly
undermined my reputation and authority.
Perfuma: H-Hordikins...
Panel
4: He's strangling her with both hands, enraged.
Hordak: NEVER CALL ME
THAT, WHORE!
Perfuma: ACK!
Page
14:
Panel
1: Still strangling her, he thrusts into her groin, beginning what will be a
violent assault.
Perfuma: (thinking) Oh
god... He-he's going to kill me! Can't... breathe...
Panel
2: Hordak as his violent ravaging of her continues.
He's releasing her throat to maul her breasts.
Hordak: No dying for
you... Not YET!
Perfuma: GASP!
Panel
3: Flashback panel, so rounded corners. From the
episode Flowers for Hordak, we see Perfuma doing a conga line with several flower festooned
Troopers as Hordak watches in disbelief from his
throne. Should be plenty of screen grabs to reference.
Caption
(Perfuma): This is the man I took so lightly?!
Panel 4: Hordak
beating her even as he continues raping her.
Hordak: I'm going to
make you suffer for the rest of your life!
Panel 5: Flashback panel. Hordak aiming his cannon arm at Perfuma
from Flowers for Hordak. As in the episode, flowers
are in the cannon's mouth, to Hordak's horror.
Caption
(perfuma): Oh god... It... It hurts...
Panel
6: Hordak releasing inside of a battered, bloodied
Slave Perfuma.
Hordak: This is just a
small taste of what I have in store for you!
SFX:
SPLORTT!
Page
15:
Panel
1: Hordak making Perfuma
perform oral sex on him. Her injuries are already visibly healing. He is
visibly still being rough, forcing her head back and forth with his hand.
Perfuma: MMMPH!
Hordak: It won't be
ALL bad. After all, you love seeds.
Panel
2: Hordak releases an ungodly amount of semen right
into her mouth and face. She's unprepared for the sheer amount.
SFX:
SPLORTT!
Hordak: So have some
of MINE!
Panel
3: Slave Perfuma lying prone on the floor, spent and
exhausted. She's nearly completely covered in Hordak's
cum, almost a second sliming. Her groin is also still leaking his semen. Hordak stands over her, supremely satisfied by his revenge
on her. Tears are flowing from her eyes.
Hordak: Now to
business my little cum dumpster. You will accompany my army to the Whispering
Woods... And you will ANNIHILATE IT.
Perfuma (thinking): NO!
Hordak: Replace all of
it with thorny vines, which will clear the entire place of the rats infesting
it.
Hordak: And get used
to those vines, because you're NEVER going to see another flower EVER AGAIN.
Caption:
The enslaved rebel contemplates a life without beauty, which is her fate. With
horror, she realizes this is her personal HELL.
Caption:
Inside her mind, Perfuma SCREAMS.
Page
16:
Panel 1: Below, the Hive burning in the
middle of a rocky desert. Horde war machines are blasting it
apart. We're not close enough to see it, but there are no survivors.
We're
in the air as Vultak rapes Sweet Bee, making her watch as her people die.
The
thought balloon crosses over to the next panel, as both slaves are thinking the
same thing.
Sweet
Bee/Perfuma (thinking): No... Please... Not this...
NOT THIS!!!
SFX:
hump hump hump
Panel 2: Slave Perfuma
gesturing at the Whispering Woods. Multiple Horde vehicles are behind her.
Caption:
Perfuma, unable to resist Hordak's
commands, begins doing the unthinkable.
Panel
3: The Whispering Woods begin dying as thorny vines replace all the natural
growth.
Caption:
It begins almost instantly, the sanctity of the forest being violated by this
unnatural, evil growth.
Panel
4: The Rebel Camp. The Twiggets and Loo-Kee look around, sensing something is wrong. Maybe some
generic rebels as well.
Caption:
All within the Woods notice something amiss quickly.
Panel 5: Blood red background. All characters
are completely blacked out, full silhouette. Thorny vines are killing everyone.
Caption:
But none would survive to stop it.
Panel
6: A look from above as the Woods die, replaced by the vines.
Caption:
This was a day of infamy. This was the day the Whispering Woods DIED.
Page
17:
Panel
1: Brightmoon under assault by Horde forces, already
badly battered.
Caption:
Without the Woods' mystic protection, the Horde quickly advanced on the kingdom
of Brightmoon.
Madame
Razz (off panel): Oh dear... I haven't seen Sweet Bee since she went to find Perfuma... I hope they're okay...
Panel
2: In the badly damaged throneroom, Angella directing her guards to help with the evacuation
procedures. Rebels present: Netossa, Castaspella, Broom, Madame Razz, Spinnerella,
Flutterina. Some are dirty,
some are disshelved.
Angella: Captain! Take
all your men and focus on getting as many of the people to safety as possible!
Forget fighting the Horde for now!
Broom:
How the heck did they even GET here?!
Castaspella: Somehow... Hordak has killed the Whispering Woods!
Flutterina: But that's
impossible!
Panel
3: A hesitant Angella being guided away gently by Netossa.
Angella: We'll need to
regroup! Then we can focus on finding the others and-
Netossa: We can plan
later, my Queen. But now we must go.
Panel
4: The remains of Brightmoon castle, with a Horde
flag atop it.
Caption
(Netossa): I'm afraid that as of now... Brightmoon has fallen.
Page
18:
Panel
1: In the Fright Zone, we see Double Trouble watching construction of a
factory. She's in her Trooper disguise.
Double
Trouble (thinking): Hordak's moving fast. Once that
factory's ready, he'll be able to mass produce that slime and overwhelm all of Etheria!
Panel
2: We look at her face first, the image split halfway between the disguise and
the girl within. She's determined to accomplish her mission.
Double
Trouble (thinking): All I need to do is steal a fresh sample of the slime and
get it to Castaspella! If anyone can find a cure, she
can!
Panel
3: The Palace of Eternia. Teela looking up to see Zoar. Sorceress is speaing
with Teela telepathically.
Sorceress
(telepathic bubble): Teela! You must come to Grayskull immediately!
There is no time to waste!
Teela: Of course,
Sorceress!
Panel 4: Teela
flying a Sky Sled alongside Zoar. She's already
mission focused.
Teela: Whatever's
going on, you can count on me!
Caption:
As Teela says this, Zoar
feels a tinge of dread. Silently, she prays her fears are unfounded...
Caption:
NEXT: Help is Coming?
