Meowria's eyes open as the sun rays beat down upon her she uses her metallic hand to sheild them grunting. " Mother suns up get up." The feline kitten jumps on the bed of her parents.
" Five more minutes.........go back to bed." The queen tries to wave off the pesky kitten.
" But you promised to show me the ruins todayyyyyyyy...." Meowria's pupils grow as her lip trembles to the queen's utter disappointment.
" I can feel you staring at me..... It's not even 6:00 in the morning Meowriankna......." Her mother groans covering her head with a pillow.
" You said and I quote I will take you to see the ruins at the crack of dawn...." The impatient teen mocks her mother's voice in protest. " Now come ooooooooon......" Meowria whines pulling at the queen's feet trying to knock her mother onto the floor.
Adora groans. " Meowria let us sleep just for a little longer......"
" And you said having kids would make us happier I am getting grey hairs already and I am not even 40 I blame you Adora." Catra groans from under the pillows.
" Yeah well tsh she is a magicat like all the others there and your kid......." Adora mumbles under her breath.
" Ahem ruins mother......" Meowria's voice shows the slightest hints of annoyance as she continues to pull at her mother's feet pulling the protesting queen off the bed making her fall on the floor.
" Ughhhhhhh alright... alright.. already kid I am up....." Catra yawns rubbing her sore backside from the fall luckily for her the heap of pillows had taken much of the impact of the fall.
" About time you got up mother..." Meowria looks away sticking her nose in the air in the typical teen girl manner.
" You know wha.........tshhhhh......" The queen doesn't dare finish the sentence she was thinking in her head.
Her daughter just looks at her with an arched brow foot tapping on the floor as her sharp black toenails click on the floor repeatedly. The queen gets up dusts herself off and leaves the room to change. Halfmoon was still under the rule of the horde so they had to stay elsewhere for the time being queen glimmer lets the family stay in Adora's old room in Castle Brightmoon. Mother and daughter had to be careful not to get recaptured as the ruins of the old kingdom were just outside the horde's door step. The two magicats use their feline like reflexes to sneak past the brightmoon guards as Glimmer had advised the night before that everyone should stay in the confines of her castle. Sadly her mother queen Angella had perished in one of the battles with the enemy making Glimmer sole heir to the throne. Catra Carries her daughter on her back for most of the trip as the princess had grown tired yet her mother was now very much awake since the prior intrusion of her sleep during the morning only hours ago. While Meowria's body wasn't that heavy being that she only weighed 60-70lbs at least and 80-90 at most she was by far a little too big to be carried by her mother. Magicats as a species a rather ancient one at that didn't age fast like your typical human of Etheria for every 10 or 15 human years the felines age half as fast. If Meowria had been born human she would be well into her 20's by now so life of this species was bliss when it came down to the whole aging process.
" Are we there yet?........." Meowria's eyes open and she yawns.
" No Meowriankna we are not..... And would you kindly stop digging your claws into my back?...." Catra replies in a sultry manner.
" Huh?..... Ohhhhh sorry Mother......" The kitten blushes as she releases her grip on the queen's shirt.
" You know you don't have to address me as mother you could simply call me mom or momma." Catra looks over her shoulder at the wide eyed freckled girl on her back.
" But I call the other parent mom............It gets so confusing having two mom's you know that right?" Meowria's purrs enter the queen's ears calming the queen.
" I am aware so why not just call me momma then or momma cat hmmm how's that sound my rambunctious little feline?" Catra smiles wide as she can't help but chuckle at her daughter's very true statement.
" Sounds like a plan to me momma cat hahaha...." Meowria's purrs turn into a chuckle as she continues to hold on for dear life her mother racing in the treetops of the woods.
Catra rolls her eyes playfully. " What am I gonna do with you kid?"
" I dunno take me to see the ruins?" Meowria's throat makes a purring sound once more as her black pupils dilate further.
The queen just chuckles shaking her head as she continues to run on all fours in a cat like fashion. Once at the edge of the Whispering woods it is nearly dinner time for that half of the planet so right on schedule the two magicats stop to hunt, eat, and rest for a little while Meowria's tiny body in the protective arms of her mother.
Meanwhile back at Brightmoon had a little bit of a problem welllll...... actually make that a big problem since a troop of horde soldiers had marched onto Brightmoon Territory. Shera and the rest of the rebels try to fend of the small battalion of soldiers only for Shera to be captured oncemore her sword along with her.
" I would say welcome back to the frightzone adora but I have other more important matters to attend to." Hordak grins wicked as ever. " take Sssshera and the sword to the machine it is time to open the portal.... So that I can prove to my brother that I am still worthy to stand by his side....... Do it now!!!"
Force captain Lonnie nods as she walks with the prisoner hooking the great rebellion fighter to the machine. The sword begins to glow as the ground shakes it flying into the air.It was the next morning or morning for Halfmoon and the rest of that half of the planet when Catra and her daughter finally make it to the ruins. Something was very off both felines could sense that something was very wrong. There was something very wrong about to happen or was happening back in the Frightzone.......Indeed.
