Ties That Bind

"The city's forces have all fled. Dryl is ours," Catra said to Scorpia over Katze's tablet.

"All right. I mean I guess it, kind of, was already ours since they're Princess is on our side and all, but the banners, they really make it feel official."

"Where are you?" Katze asked, poking her head in front of Catra's.

"That...is a great question and the answer is 'I do not know'. Yea, this place is some kind of maze."

Catra sighed and tapped her badge. It lit up, it's tracker going off. "There. That's me. Follow it out when you're done. And hurry up, we have work to do."

Catra yawned and stretched as the communication pad beeped. "Hello? Please say you're on your way back. I need backup! Entrapta's new invention has lost it!" Kyle said hurriedly.

"Huh. Kinda sounds like Katze's inventions," Catra commented.

"Bot #437 seems to be having some sort of existential crisis. Down, boy, down!" Entrapta screamed in the background.

"Pull it together, Kyle, you're fine," Catra said.

"Stop it! Please, why are you doing this to me?" Entrapta pleaded in the background.

Suddenly, Glimmer ran out and tackled Catra. "Where is she?" Scorpia ran over and dragged Glimmer off of Catra. Bow ran out and the four began fighting.

"Glimmer, we've gotta get out of here now!" Bow exclaimed.

"Get them!" Catra ordered. Glimmer grabbed Bow and teleported away. "I see the rebels have sent their finest," she laughed, lunging at them as they reappeared moments later.

"Bow!" Glimmer yelled, grabbing him. Catra lunged at them, just as Glimmer teleported. They teleported into the air, falling down rather quickly.

"Glimmer, wake up!" Bow said, shaking her.

"What did you just do to me?" Catra shrieked. Glimmer woke up just in time to teleport them away.

"Get back." Bow aimed an arrow at her and Catra hissed.

Catra grunted as she tripped. "Hey, are you okay?" Bow asked.

"Like you care," Catra scoffed.

"We do, actually. The Rebellion treats its prisoners with compassion."

"You princess-types have to be about the bleeding hearts. Everything with you is about the power of friendship. How's that working out for you?"

"Come on. I bet even the Horde has friends. What about Adora?" Catra scoffed. "You two grew up together, right? What was she like as a kid?" She snarled, telling him to shut up without words. "Glimmer and I have known each other forever too. She'd teleport to the roof to get my lost arrows when I was learning to shoot."

"Wow, you two must be really close, huh? Sounds like Glimmer would do anything for you, right?"

"Absolutely. She's my best friend."

"Good to know." Catra jumped on him, pushing him off the edge.

"Bow!" Glimmer yelled. A force pushed her off the edge, too.

"Oh, hey princess," Katze said, hanging off of Glimmer's back.

"How are you such a nightmare?!" Glimmer groaned in frustration, trying to push her off.

"Ah, years of practice." Catra shrugged.

"Can we please discuss this when we're not hurtling to our deaths?" Bow put in.
