(On Horde Prime's ship)

The next day, all Catra could think about was Y/n. Y/n, Y/n, Y/n. And Etheria. The rebellion, Adora, Scorpia... Shadow Weaver.

She snapped her eyes open for the third time that morning. Everytime she'd wake up for about five minutes and then fall back asleep. While sleeping, she dreamed about the princess. Her h/c hair. Her bright e/c eyes. Not only that, but she also dreamed of Etheria blowing up and everyone dying. It was all her fault. I mean, whose else could it be?

She finally got out of her bed and began to search around the ship. There was nothing except for hallways... more hallways. And some never ending hallways. She eventually wandered over to Glimmer's cell. She was surprised to see Y/n already there and the two of them were... laughing?

Catra watched from the distance. What could be so funny about being trapped on an alien ship? Well, she was about to find out. She made her way over to them.

"Uh, hey guys," she said. Y/n turned to look at Catra, she smirked. "Awh, did the kitty get her beauty sleep?" she asked. Catra scoffed. "Barely... Anyways, what were you guys talking about? You were laughing rather loud."

"Oh, Glimmer was telling me about some of your friends on Etheria. She told me about Entrapta, Bow..." She looked at Glimmer, "And... Adora, was it?" Glimmer nodded. Then Y/n turned to Catra. "She was the girl that Horde Prime showed us yesterday. And I know you're all like "no! I hate princesses blah blah blah', but it really seemed like you two are close. Or... were."

Catra smiled. "It's hard to believe but Adora and I never were friends growing up," she said. "Growing up? You guys grew up together? Wait... Adora was a horde soldier?" Y/n had a confused expression on her face. How could a horde soldier become a princess? That made no sense at all.

"Oh, right! I forgot to mention that!" Glimmer said. "Wait, then how did she become a princess?" Y/n asked. "Oh she found some stupid magic sword then left the horde to be with the princesses," Catra summed it up pretty nicely. "Just... like that?" Y/n asked. Catra nodded. "I was so angry at her. Up to this day, I still don't even know why, we barely know each other." Y/N turned to Glimmer.

"But you and Adora are close right? Close enough that she would come and get you?" she asked. Glimmer gasped. "You're right! I can't believe I didn't realize that! The rebellion has a ship!" Glimmer was smiling brighter than ever. They might actually get off this ship!

"But it's not like she knows where we are," Catra said. "But there should be like a communications hub on this ship, right?" Y/n said. "If there wasn't, how else would Horde Prime know what's happening on the other planets he's occupying?"

Catra's mind went back to the room she found where the clone teleported. That must have been what that was! Then that meant, if Adora had a ship, she could come to us. Catra could find out her coordinates somehow and send Y/n and Glimmer to them. She was genius! She was smiling too widely that Glimmer and Y/n noticed.

"What's up with you?" Y/n asked chuckling. "Oh nothing, I just thought of a plan," Catra replied. Of course she wouldn't share the whole plan with them. Just enough of it for them to be on board. After explaining, the other two were smiling widely as well.

"By the way, where is this... communications place?" Y/n asked. "Oh, I could take you right now, if you want," Catra said. "Yeah, sure! Uh, Glimmer, we'll be right back." Glimmer smiled, "What's the rush?" But Y/n didn't reply and dragged Catra away.

Once they were far away, she leaned in to Catra's ear. "Are you sure we can trust Glimmer? You did say that she was responsible for her own kingdom being destroyed," Y/n mumbled. Catra had forgot she told Y/n that. She was obviously exaggerating but she thought Y/n would have noticed.
