Adora and the Rebellion were on their way back to Bright Moon but in the mean time, Silver had picked up her pace. Arriving there before them. 

She climbed through a high window and scoured the decorative halls almost invisible to guards around her. 
Passing by the war room she caught a familiar scent and followed it to a nearby room. A bed set out and a brunette atop it. A slight chuckle escaped her throat as she approached. A smirk crawled across the feline's features as she extended her hand towards Catra.
"Hm, thought you were gone for good." Green eyes scanned the blood stained clothing and cleaned fur. 
"Maybe I should try again. Isn't that what they say, Kitten? 'Try, try, try again?'" Silver extended her index claw towards the feline's jawline. Dragging it along softly.
"You caused me so much pain. It's time I caused some in return." Silver's face became emotionless as she trailed closer to the magicat's neck, pressing and earning a subconscious whimper from her.

Silver's eyes flickered, blue trying to fight green. She yelled slightly and her wrist got painfully yanked backwards. Her bones cracking with the momentum. Green flickered again.
"Fuck!" She hissed, shaking her head then held it.

When blue disappeared behind green once again, Silver growled and looked at Catra.
"I'll be back for you." She snarled, before bounding off to find a certain magicat kitten.

The silver-white mane's magicat, prowled around the castle, passing by their bedrooms and their daughter's room, trying to track her.

But there's this stupid pain in her head again. She simply shakes it off. Silver clears her throat and calls out, "Moonshine!" Almost in a panicked state. Being the bad guy tends to have great acting perks apparently, because she actually heard a tiny squeak in return.

She pretends to actually scramble towards the kitchen and skids to a stop. Forcing her eyes to go blue. The real Silver's eyes tinted pink with tears, and pain. 

"Moonshine, don't!" The real one panics and green enveloped her eyes once more growling.
"That's the last time I let you speak.." She practically whispers to herself. Blue fights back and Silver holds her head.
"Moon?!" Green snarls temporarily.
"Don't!!" Blue fights. Silver snarls and slightly thrashes about, her claws digging into the carpet and her hands instinctively reaching to the defective chip behind her neck. 

Silver scrunched her eyes shut and growled deeply. The sickly hue of green in her eyes appeared as she opened them. Trying to remember exactly where she heard the noise from before. 
"Moon, please, where are you?" Green eyes faked fear and concern, a smile threatening to escape as she entered the kitchen.

"Mom?" Moon actually answers but it was followed by a sickly chuckle.

"Mom's not here, Moonshine, " The chuckle follows again and the cabinet doors fly open, to reveal what was indeed not her mom. Moonshine instantly regretted her actions and whimpered in fear. Silver attempted to grab the kitten but she struggled to get a proper hold.

"MUMMY!!!!MAMA!!! SOMEBODY!!!!!!AAAHHHH!!!!!" Moonshine panicked beyond belief and bounded away, slipping through the feline's grip and running out to find another place to hide. Silver growled and chased after her, tumbling into several objects along the way.

But Silver smiled, this was like hunting, she had speed. This should be a breeze. She bared her teeth and extended her claws for a grip on the carpeted flooring. 

Moonshine hadn't been taught how to hunt yet, Silver and Catra were originally waiting till she was around 5 or 6 to start learning. Now she realizes she should've began as soon as possible. A mother's speed can't compare to a kitten's. 

"MUMMY!!!" Moonshine wailed, her pace faltering as she got a little tired. Silver intended on tiring her out, but catching her by surprise always worked too. Silver was within grabbing range when a large figure ran into her and threw her across the room. 

Silver hit a pillar with a terrible thump and a crack, she whimpered at the contact as she fell to the ground. Adora was heaving and anguished.
"Get Moon out of here, Now!" She ordered Glimmer and the Queen nodded. Teleporting them away soon after. Bow readied one of his arrows as they cornered Silver, laying on the ground still. Scorpia readied her stinger and magic while the rest of them lit up their powers as well. 

Silver's breathing was labored as her eyes cracked open. Blue. Adora gasped quietly and dared to take a step forward.
"Adora...." Silver smiled despite the pain, "Moon?" her eyes widened and Adora nodded, "Safe." Silver sighed but cried out as her shoulders rolled and a bone legit locked back into place. Adora stepped back, the others mirroring her expression as well. Silver had tears trailing down her face as she silently begged Adora to just make it stop already.

Silver moved to stand up and held her neck, limping. If her other side showed its face again, the alliance was more than willing to take her down. 

"Silver, please--" Adora started and stepped towards her, cornering her yet again. 

"RESIST!"

"I can't....." Sher strained and held behind her neck, her claws extending and digging the area.

"Adora please you have too--AAAHHHH!! You have to kill it!! Argh!" Silver winced and shut her eyes again. Adora's eyes widened.
"What? No! We can't! I can't do that to you!" The blonde begged, looking down at the magicat.

"It's our only choice, Adora. Promise me you will."
"I--" She faltered.
"I promise..." Adora felt a tear leave her eyes as she heard Silver gasp, then chuckle. Eyes turning green again.
"Good luck catching me then." She grinned and Bow fired an arrow, a net moving to engulf her. Scorpia attempted to sting her but she managed to dodge both of them at the same time and leapt at Adora. She then did a backflip off of the blonde's shoulders and over the banister. Adora tried to reach out and grab her and so did the other Princesses but she just slinked away from everything they threw at her. 

She-ra peered over the railings and just saw an empty castle. She was gone. AGAIN! Adora groaned in frustration and slammed her fists down on the railings, bending them in the process. 

"She's so damn slippery."
"We did have a lot of  time to catch her but--" Adora glared at Frosta causing her to stop talking abruptly.
"Never mind." The ice Princess shrunk into herself.

Glimmer teleported back just in time and Adora hugged a crying Moonshine. 
"It's okay now. It's okay." Adora really hoped Catra was also okay, her eyes drifting to the room she slept in at the bottom of the stairs. 

She'll check later tonight, she's got other stuff to take care of right now. Moonshine buried her wet face into Adora's neck, wailing loudly. Her mother trying her hardest to comfort her.
