Is It Worth It? - Silver (OC) x Catradora{She-ra Behind the scenes}

Failsafe

[3RD POV]

"So, wait, hold on. Where have you two been this whole time again?" Bow asked as Glimmer made a fire with a glyph. Silver sat next to Catra on a crate, studying her reactions. She was just....feeling like something was bothering the feline.

"While you were traipsing around in space, some of us have been working to stop the Heart of Etheria from falling into Prime's hands. We've discovered the same things you did. Rumors of a Failsafe that will break the restraints the First Ones built and set the stolen magic free." Shadow Weaver announced. 

"Are you kidding?" Glimmer said, "After everything that happened last time, you're still going after the Heart of Etheria? A-And you're helping her?" 

Castaspella stepped forward, "We're trying to free the magic for all of Etheria so we can be strong enough to fight Prime. I'm doing this for your father and for you. Shadow Weaver is the lesser of two evils."

"At least you admit she's evil." Catra interrupted and Melog growled.

"You're one to talk, aren't you?" Silver's fur stood on end as the two feline's growled at the witch. Adora put a hand on Catra's shoulder to stop her from her need to attack.

"Tell us what you know about the Failsafe. What makes you think it's in Mystacor?" Silver caught Catra's cheeks tint.

(She actually did blush in the show when she turned away...damn and I'm now seeing this!!)

"As any good sorcerer knows, Mystacor was built on the ruins of an ancient First Ones citadel. And beneath Mystacor--" Castaspella cut in, "Ooh, ooh. Can I tell this part?"

"Go ahead." Shadow Weaver relented. Casta joined her hands and spoke in an eerie tone, "Beneath Mystacor, there are many secret tunnels and rooms, forgotten and sealed off. No one has been able to access them in centuries, but there are whispers of what they contain."

"An artifact known as the Crystal of Arxia, hidden there by a group of traitorous First Ones." Shadow Weaver spoke rather bored.

"You said I could do it!" Casta fussed.

"You were taking too long." Shadow Weaver turned away.

"Arxia. That could be the outpost that Mara's rebels were talking about! The fail safe might be underneath Mystacor!" Bow thought out loud.

"Reaching it won't be easy. But I've spent my whole life studying the secrets of Mystacor. I can get us in." Shadow Weaver stepped forward, gesturing to herself. Casta still looking gloomy about not being able to finish the story herself.

"If you figured it out on your own, why come back here? Why do you need us at all?" Adora spoke up and stepped forward as well.

 "Because Mystacor is controlled by Micah, who, you may recall, is controlled by Horde Prime." Glimmer looked away. "You have allowed Prime to take too much ground." Shadow Weaver stepped up to Adora and put her hands on the blonde's shoulders, Catra hissed at the action. "If he seizes the Heart, it will all be over. There's is no more time for half measures, Adora. You must act now." Adora sighed and swatted the hands away, her eyebrows furrowing.

"It's the only lead we have. We have to try. It'll have to be a stealth mission. Catra, Silver, do you think you and Melog can--?" Adora turned around but they weren't there.

"Oh, leave them to sulk. We can't let them slow us down." Adora shrugged her off, "You guys get ready. I'll find her." Adora took off.

"Guys?!" Adora called and saw them curled up on a cot in a corner. "Catra, Are you two coming with us to Mystacor?" Adora asked settling next to the pair.
