Our Fated meeting (Catradora, Medieval AU)

Chapter 8 : Second chances don't come often

Narrator POV:

The four waited in silence, Lonnie getting bored, Adam and Catra not letting Adora out of their eyes and the princess...was Livid. She was used to being around People that had a severe lack of intelligence by now but this, she was convinced, was the dumbest thing she ever witnessed.

Huntara came back and pointed at them "You can come" they all started walking when she stopped them "You..alone" she pointed at Adora, who wordlessly joined the Woman. The others were offered a chamber to wait in.

Adora had little patience left in her after what just happened and her Headache kept hammering in her skull, as if trying to escape. She was brought down stairs and through several rooms that had seemingly no purpose until they reached a Door, Huntara stood in front of "Weapons...all of them" she said, pointing at a nearby table

Adora removed her Royal rapier, a knife, hidden in her sleeve and another from her boot. As she pulled her Mantle back, Huntara saw the weird object, dangling on her hip "Whats that?"

"This? It's to make fire...camping supplies, nothing dangerous" she lied and Huntara, seemingly believing her, led her through the door into a Room that reminded her of her Workshop. Metal and Wood lay about everywhere with Work tools and the smell of sweat and something Adora couldn't place. Huntara closed the door behind her and walked through the maze of things

"Don't touch anything...she gets angry"

"I get that" she said and they made their way to a door on the other side. In the next room sat a purple haired Girl, her Head down in a huge crate and her legs dangling just above the floor

"Lady Entrapta?"

"Hm? Uhh Hunti, is everything alright?" she asked, popping her head out of the crate and turned around "Who are you?"

"...Adora grayskull. We talked ab.." Entrapta ran up to her, looking her over

"Yes, yes, yes the inventor, I remember....not you but what you invented"

"THAT is not for sale, Lady Entrapta" Adora tried to keep her cool but her nerves were raw from what had just happened and her patience was razor thin "I came here to ask you for help"

"Hmm? what?"

"The Rebellion...?"

"Who?"

Adora had to step back and resist screaming into her hands, exhaling loudly while she pinched the bridge of her Nose "The Rebellion against house Grayskull, the one we were talking about for WEEKS?"

"Grayskull? Wasn't you Grayskull? Or ...who are you again"

Huntara had been hired as personal protection so right now, she was on edge, knowing how easy Entrapta made it for others to want to kill her "Maybe we should talk over some tee?"

"I would ....love that" Adora answered through clenched teeth

Sitting in a tiny corner with a dirty teacup, Adora was about to lose it. Entrapta was known for being weird and eccentric but this was unmanageable and she was convinced that she had wasted her time coming here. The Princess opposite of her was still not really listening, tinkering with some weird ball "You invent some good stuff?" she asked

"I dabble" Adora said, trying to drink the tea which leaked almost immediately "About why I am here..."

"Show me..." Entrapta said, holding her Hand open

"Show you..what?"

"What you've invented"

"I ...could bring you some..."
