You walk down the dimly-lit corridor, your dark green combat boots clunking as they hit the metal beneath your feet. You've lived in the Horde for as long as you can remember; they found you as a baby and took you in. Right now, you're just a cadet, but you look forward to the day you are promoted to soldier.

You hear a voice from around the corner, breaking you out of your thoughts. Instantly, you recognise it as Force Captain Catra's. Wait, she sounds... distressed. Creeping over to the corner of the corridor, you can see her. She's stress-pacing, and hissing under her breath to herself about some 'Adora'. Oh, that blonde kid who defected. She was Catra's ex or something, right? Yeah. 

'Force Captain Catra?' You mutter. Her ears prick up at the sound of her name, and she looks over her shoulder to meet your eyes. 'What?' She spits, annoyed, and furrows her brows. 'Who even are you, anyway?' 

There's a pause while Catra looks you up and down thoughtfully. Realisation dawns on her. 'Oh, right. You're cadet [y/n],' she muses. You smile and nod. You've always liked Catra - she's a little easier on the lower ranks of the Horde than most other Force Captains. There was a good person under that tough persona, you could tell - and you had always been a good judge of character.

'Are you alright?'

'Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Don't worry about me,' Catra says, feigning nonchalance. She's trying to hide it, but there's sadness in her voice. You raise an eyebrow questioningly at her remark. Catra looks away shamefully.

'Wanna talk about it?' You venture.

Both of you are silent for a minute. You go and sit next to her. 'I think you're really cool, and I barely know you.'

The ghost of a smile traces Catra's face. 'You seem pretty okay too.'

This is really short lol. I promise the next one will be longer, but I hope you enjoyed it nevertheless.
