When our eyes met

Chapter XIII Kidbapped

Adora was walking down the hallways. The girl had already put on a pair of dark red pants to match colours with her vest as the undershirt was white. Her hands began to fix her hair up on a high, tight ponytail while she was walking towards the princess' room. She was looking forward to guiding her lover, soon her wife, down to the table where everyone could see that the feline was hers and only. All these days she was getting more and more weak under the bed sheets. Adora walked all the way down the hall, taking a deep breath and finally knocking on the door "Princess, let's go. We will be late" She called out but with no response. Her eyebrow perked up, opening slowly to see if there was someone inside. She walked around the room, checking in the bathroom as well but... Noone was there.

Adora remained silent for a moment while thinking that she may have gone down earlier but...didn't she inform her? They used to go together.. Even when they were just a princess and a knight. Her eyes scanned the room to see if she left any note before she walked outside again. Her hand brushed the back of her neck. She didn't know what to do ..should she go and see if she was at the table already? With quick steps the warrior arrived at the dining room with the rest of the nobles but the princess was nowhere to be found. Her eyes fixed at the queen of the Horde but in a few seconds she flickered them to glance at the prince. He was calm, eating while the chair of the feline was empty. Instead of taking a seat on her usual chair she guided herself towards Glimmer as she bends towards her "Hey...have you seen Catra?"

"What...no? Weren't you with her? Bow told me he found you two together" Glimmer furrowed her eyebrows and looked at her only to let her continue.

"No...I left her alone earlier today....I went to her room to escort her but..she wasn't there" Adora started to get worried about this.. she had a strange feeling. Her eyes looked down at her friend only to give her a small sigh. "I'll go look out for her..-"

"Hey Adora, wait..what if she's out, walking? I mean.... you shouldn't get all anxious. She's fine, just relax and eat...you're finally able to walk around the palace without worrying about your wounds getting worse. Take it easy. She will be with a maid or someone"

Adora looked down at her but she could feel that something was just...too off. Light Spinner was rather concerned as well. "Glimmer, I know when something is wrong-"

"You love her I get it, but that doesn't mean she needs you so much. She has maids around her all the time...Just stop worrying so much and calm down for once.. Sit down" The knight paused for a moment. That moment was when Bow would arrive and wrap an arm around her shoulders

"Come. Eat first. You need it. If you don't see her after breakfast we can go look out for her." Bow knew how to calm her down sometimes. He showed that he actually cared for her and not that he just wanted to make her forget the princess.

She nodded slowly and tried to offer him a nervous smile "I'm sorry Bow... I really worry about her" Adora explained and looked up at him in worry.

"I know.. but you should calm down..it's still early..come with me. My princess needs some space, your princess as well~" He smiled at her and pulled her with him to join the rest of the knights on the table "we have vanilla cake~" He cheered while making a smile form on her lips and chuckle "Do you think it will be tasty?" The man obviously hurried up to make her seat and held a fork "Dig in and you'll see" He smirked.

The first one to stand up was the queen of the Horde. Instead of waiting for longer to enjoy the music she walked up the stairs with a guard beside her. Adora looked up at her while noticing she was in a hurry.

"Bow.. I will have to go now" She didn't wait for a reply and ran behind the woman. Her hand placed on her sword, making it be a bracelet so she could be alerted if the sorceress would try to attack or something. Her eyes stared at the woman, following her so she could see where she was going. The prince was still in the dining room so they wouldn't be able to talk so... at least she would be able to ask Catra's mother if she saw her or...something like that. Instead of spying on her she walked on her and bowed just a little "Your....majesty, I've been looking for princess Catra.. I can't find her and I was wondering if you saw her around here.." She didn't know what to expect but the older one only glared at her
