ENTRAPDAK CHILD OC
Name: Dreadlok
Pronouns: He/Him
Species: Etherian/Clone hybrid
Bio: The ill tempered but well meaning Prince of Dryl, and son of the infamous Lord Hordak. Dreadlok's lineage, combined with his intimidating appearance, has caused anyone outside of the Alliance to keep him at a distance. He learned how to live with being feared a long time ago, but still has issues with being inferior. Dreadlok's not as smart as his parents, and he's deeply ashamed of that. He channels his frustration into his music, as well as his combat training. Dreadlok uses his long dreadlocks as deadly whips, using them to lash at or grab his opponents. His best friends are Finn and Flora, who sympathize with the struggle of having infamous parents. He's quick to use his large size to scare off anyone who gives them a hard time. Ironically, Dreadlok is everything Hordak and Entrapta HOPED he would be. A child with loving friends and family, and a "normal" hobby. Whatever their differences are, this family loves and appreciates each other. Sadly, more than any of them realize.
Physical Description: Hordak's height, Entrapta's hair and skin color, long dreadlocks with metal clips, long ears, clone facial markings, red irises, muscular build, resting grouch face.
Personality Traits: naive, somewhat clumsy, quick to anger, loyal, easily swayed, louder than he needs to be, average intelligence.
Abilities: trichokinesis, hand-to-hand combat, physical prowess, basic mechanics, musical talent.
Likes: his friends, his parents, loud music.
Dislikes: bullies, being called stupid, being compared to his parents, people saying bad things about his parents.

The war is finally over. Prime is dead, the hive mind is broken, and everyone is reunited with their loved ones. However, there are some questions left unanswered. What will be the fate of Catra and Hordak? What are these new memories Wrong Hordak has? What is Etheria's place in the wider universe? Where do we go now?

Also, AO3 has caught up with Tumblr, so this chapter will be posted there tomorrow. However, you can only access it if you have a registered account because of precautions regarding the whole AI situation. Sorry in advance.

Chapter 22: Project Orion
Once again, rain battered the windows of the Crypto Castle. A blue fire crackled within the fireplace that housed all the… guests. On one side of the room sat the Alliance; on the other side sat Hordak’s brothers and the former horde soldiers. Right in the middle sat the former warlord upon an armchair, his fists balled into his pants. Entrapta sat on the arm of the chair with her hair wrapped around Hordak’s bicep. He cleared his throat.
“Now, I am under the impression that you all know why you are here. I would like to first apologize for my outburst yesterday. It was inappropriate of me, and I should have acted more rationally.” After a moment, Hordak looked at Entrapta.
“Do you recall when I told you where I came from?”
“Yes.”
“That was partially a lie. I am not a clone I am the actual biological child of Horde Prime.” Hordak glanced down at his fists as everyone reacted with varying levels of shock.
“Why in the world would Prime want a baby?” Mermista expressed.
“He never wanted me. I was an accident my mother insisted on keeping. According to him at least.”
“Mother?” Castaspella inquired.
“Yes, I had a mother who is the only reason I am still alive. According to Prime, when my mother found out she was pregnant with me she insisted they kept me. Prime agreed as long as I was not a distraction.”
“If it is not too personal, could you tell us what she was like?” Castaspella inquired.
“I think we crossed the line of personal business a while ago.” Catra retorted, gaining a glare from Adora and Glimmer.
_______________________________________________________________
Orion sat reading on a big chair in his bedroom connected to his parent’s room. Despite being only four years old, he was very proficient at reading and had already begun reading novels and scientific articles. Like many rooms in the Velvet Glove, it was a blinding white with black accents and smelled strongly of bleach.
Orion looked up to the sound of the green barrier dissolving. His mother stepped through the door.
“Alright, star sweeper time for bed.”
“What! Please five more minutes, mama.”
“No, buts star sweeper, it is already past your bedtime.” She took the book from his hands, careful to mark Orion’s place. She started to usher him to bed as a thought popped into his head.
“Mama, why did you name me Orion?”
“Well, when I was giving birth to you, the Velvet Glove was passing right through a constellation named Orion by the local beings. Legend says he was a giant who was a mighty warrior and a huntsman that was immortalized in the stars.”
“Will you stop filling his head with that nonsense?” Orion’s father, Horde Prime stood at the door.
“Darling, it’s only a story.”
“A stupid one at that,” he looked to his left. “Is that my book?” He stomped over to the armchair, swiping the book and ripping out the bookmark. “Tell your child to stop taking my things.” He stormed out of the room, closing the barrier between the two bedrooms.
“I’m sorry,” Orion whispered, balling his fists into the bedsheets.
“Oh, don’t worry about it. Your father is just having a bad day.”
“He’s always having a bad day.”
“I know.”
“Can you sing that one song for me again?”
“Anything for your star sweeper.
La la lu
La la lu
Oh, my little star sweeper
I'll sweep the stardust for you” She tucked in the white sheets of his small bed.
“La la lu
La la lu
Little soft fluffy sleeper
Here comes a pink cloud for you” She pushed his unruly indigo curls out of his face.
“La la lu
La la lu
Little wandering angel
Fold up your wings, close your eyes
La la lu
La la lu
And may love be your keeper
La la lu
La la lu
La la lu” She kissed him on his forehead as his eyes fluttered close.
“There now, little star sweeper. Dream on.” She turned out the lights and left the room.

“Ok, what I don’t get is how we and none of the other clones knew about her?” TD asked, leaning forward in his seat.
“Prime never let anyone see her. He never told me, but I figured her wanted her all to himself and didn’t want anyone else to touch her. Which is probably why he wasn’t too fond of me when I came around.”
“Why would Prime even want a wife to begin with? I thought he only loved himself.” Frosta inquired.
“Another thing I am not fully aware of. My best guess is that he liked the attention and affection a wife could give him. A type of adoration clones could not provide.”
“Whatever happened to your mother?” Micah asked, crossing his arms.
__________________________________________________________________
Just like his mother had told him to do, Orion hid in his closet as his parents screamed at each other. He didn’t know how it started he just knew it was about him. It was always about him.
Maybe Father is right. Maybe I am a nuisance.
He could never figure out why his father detested him so much. Maybe it was his appearance. While he looked more like his mother there were some staggering differences in looks. For one, his eyes were crimson red when his parents were electric lime green. His hair was also different, with his being navy blue, short, and curly while his parents were white, long, and straight.
At that point, his parents were close enough to the door that he could make out what they were saying.
“I just don’t get the obsession you have with that thing! It was bad enough you wanted to keep it, but spending almost all your time with it!”
“First of all, that thing is your seven-year-old son, whom I am trying to raise by myself since you have put absolutely zero effort into even being nice too!”
“That’s another thing! With every passing day, you become more and more defiant! It has gotten out of hand!”
“And I apologize for that, but I just want you to be involved in raising the child you helped create!”
“When the universe implodes, I will be involved.”
“You are such a…hmm”
“Go ahead. Finish what you were saying.”
“Fine. You are a cold, narcissistic, uncaring man who has never given a single thought to anyone but yourself! You are a terrible father and a terrible husband that sucks the life of everyone around you!”
“There is no hope for you after all.”
__________________________________________________________________
“I do not exactly know what happened after that. All I heard was her screaming grow quieter as Prime drug her away. I never saw her after that night. The next morning Prime handed me off to a couple of clones and sent us off to some unknown plant where I was educated about almost every subject and how to fight. At the age of 25 my cybernetics were implanted, I joined the hivemind, and became his general.”
“Oh, sweetheart,” Castaspella whispered, covering her mouth.
“Please, the very least you can do is not pity me. Is there anything else you all want to ask or are we done here?”
“No there isn’t,” Glimmer rose from her seat. “Thank you for telling us this and we are sorry we put you in this position. Guys let's go.” At her command, the Alliance filed out of the room leaving Hordak, Entrapta, and the five brothers in the room.
Hordak slumped down him his seat. Groaning as he buried his face in his hands. He looked up at his family.
“I am sorry.”
“For what?” Entrapta asked, wrapping her hands around his bicep.
“Lying to all of you about everything.”
“HK, that doesn’t matter. What matters is that you’re ok.”
“I’m fine. It happened a long time ago.”
“Still, if there is anything you need we are all right here.” Entrapta placed her hand on Hordak’s shoulder, receiving a small smile from the former warlord. “Come on,” she rose from her seat, “it’s past lunchtime and I know you haven’t eaten anything.”

As the Alliance boarded Darla Sea Hawk pulled Bow to the side.
“What’s wrong.”
“Nothing is wrong. After today I want to join you on your quest to befriend Hordak. Today has made me realize how hard he has had it, and maybe, like Catra, positive relations could get him on the straight and narrow.”
“That’s great! I’m glad someone finally gets it. My only problem is breaking the ice. I tried to talk to him once, but he was so dismissive. We need to get him in a place where he would be willing to socialize.”
“How about… a boys' night out?”
