A/N: user42817404 asked for this request and the next few. now that Catra's redemption arc is basically canon, the fluff that comes fan-fictions is the only thing keeping my catradora heart going. sometimes my own writing gives me soft feelings but then, they go away when i realized the stories are mine and i don't want to seem selfish. if that makes sense. also in this story, she-ra's sword didn't break.

"I can't believe we fell from the ship! That must have been like a thousand feet; that was awesome!" Glimmer laughed. She saw Catra flat on her face, mumbling possibly curse words and other forms of language.

"If you ever push me out of ship ever again, I'll let the next Horde creation to cut your hair too." Catra moved a strand of her newly cut hair. Glimmer helped her up to her feet.

"So, I guess this is where we part ways, huh?" Glimmer brushed a leaf on her hair.

"Listen, sorry about your mom and the portal stuff. I guess I just wanted a chance to show people that I wasn't as weak as they thought I was."

"I suppose that's half understandable. You know, I never thanked you for saving my butt back there on Horde Prime's ship."

"Don't mention it." Catra looked away and Glimmer nudged her arm.

"Listen, I know what you're thinking. You can go back to trying to conquer Etheria or...you could go talk to her?"

"I don't have anything to say to her."

"You mean, you're going to pass up an opportunity to fix things with Adora and go back to what? Your goons who couldn't even fight Scorpia when she charged upon the Black Garnet?"

"You think she's really gonna forgive me after everything I did to you and your princess friends? Yeah, good luck with that."

"Maybe she won't forgive you yet but you know, it's a start," Catra tried turning away but Glimmer stopped her grabbing her arm.

"You don't know her like I do. She's...smarter than that." Catra swiped her arm out of Glimmer's hand. "Besides, she's a princess now. She doesn't need someone from the Horde to infiltrate her life again; especially with Horde Prime if he figures out we escaped."

"No one's at Fright Zone. If you were to go back there, you'll be completely alone. Catra, I was wrong when I said she ran away from you. You two were so close and you can be like that again. You don't have to say a word to me for the rest of the way but at least give the Rebellion a chance," Catra looked away and had a moment of aspiration. "Haven't I caused enough trouble?"

"You did a number on Etheria, you nearly killed the world, you were partly responsible for what happened to my mother, you sent Entrapta to Beast Island, and you did help Horde Prime with finding out more on Etheria being a weapon. In spite of all that, you did help me get out of that spaceship. Maybe we both misjudged each other." Glimmer showed a fond smile and grabbed her wrist and teleported out of the forest.

"Did they hurt you? They tried to, didn't they? Did they take something from you? Did they drain any magic from you?" Bow checked all over Glimmer's arms and face for any marks on her.
