A Cat's worth (Catradora Modern AU) (COMPLETE!)

Chapter 26 : Plan

Catras POV:

DT and Lonnie look toward us as we enter the Club / Life House and give us a small smile and a scowl each (i let you guess who did which). We step to them and are handed a small Colorful Cocktail "So ....We gonna talk today?" Adora starts, setting her drink to the counter

DT, finishing their own drink, looks exhausted for some reason "First of all, yes we need to talk ....but it's one more Person that needs to do so. Come in"

I was confused for a moment until I heard a Voice behind us "Evening DT, Ladies. I assume they have no idea why I am here?"

"None, i was getting to that" says DT

"Luke?" i say, slightly unsure since it had been at least 7 Years since I last saw my 'Brother' "What in the name of every Hell, are you doing here? "

"Luke?" asked Adora and i can't blame her that she forgot to remember him since i only mentioned i even had a Brother, once.

When we first met, he realized something that took me years...that i was only a bought object not an addition to his Family. His own Relationship with his Parents was already strained and with me in the Picture, he knew he was no longer needed. They sent him away to a boarding School somewhere in Switzerland and that's the last i had heard of him.

"Luke is here because he has important information for us and is in a particularly sensitive situation himself. We all have one thing that unites us....we all want Prime gone either literally or just in a Business sense, makes no difference" DT explains with as much dramatic Flair as they can muster, twirling between us and putting their Hands on Luke's Shoulder in the end.

"pff how can he help?" i ask dismissing the claim that mr Rich Bitch could be of service here

"Who do you think, took over when my Parents went to Jail?" Luke asks shooing away DT's Hands "I have been running the Business for two years, dear Sister"

"ohh no you don't ...don't you dare call me Sister. We meet ONCE Luke, for 2 hours and spoke maybe 8 sentences in which i knew we were non compatible after the first" i step up to him only to find Adoras hand on my Shoulder, holding me back.

"Not so touching reunion aside, what are we doing here DT?" Lonnie spouts to everybody's surprise

"Oho it talks" Adora says, rolling her eyes "and of course it's not helpful what comes out"

"Watch it, Blondie. I have neither forgotten nor forgiven"

"Good, me neither. The only reason you are alive is, because Catra needs what you can offer, NOTHING else Lonnie....remember this well" Adoras grip on my shoulder becomes close to painful but she soon realizes her mistake and drops her hand into mine

DT claps into their Hands "ok so now that we are back to being......Friends is the wrong Word to use here i feel....Allies? Yeah let's go with Allies, can we get to the reason why we are all here?"

Noone says anything. The Room feels like a Ball of Hostility that could detonate with the slightest spark. DT was right tho, we need each other even if we don't like that fact. I remember Dr. Castas words once again "We all need People Catra. We love saying things like "All you need is Love" but it's a delusion of youth if you ask me. To view Love as your biggest priority, is inherently not wrong but we are all part of a society and have to live in it. We all need Love but we can't survive of it Catra"

I sigh and decide that someone had to start or we never get anywhere "Lonnie" the brown skinned Girl looks over to me, clearly defensive and not letting Adora out of her Eyes "I...I forgive you" i say, looking her straight in the Eyes
