Hardships

Conversations With The Queen (pt 1 of 2)

Catra's POV:

I was walking down the halls of Horde Prime's ship when I heard something that caught my attention. I sneaked in the shadows and hid behind a pillar before my eyes widened. I saw a huge what looked to be holding area that had a green electric force field which Im guessing was meant to keep people in. "Hello?! Is somebody there?", My ears perk up and I realized that the voice was Glimmer. I quickly and stealthily made my way towards the strange area and asked, "Glimmer is that you?". I hear a gasp before Glimmer asks, "Catra?! Is that you?". I nod and say, "Yeah, what exactly are you doing in there Sparkles? Do something to piss off Prime". Glimmer scoffs and says in a shrill voice, "No! I was thrown in here after dinner! I dont even know why the hell Im in this damn cell. I thought we were honorable guests!".

I chuckle and say, "Sparkles cool your glitter before you pop a blood vessel. Atleast you're not getting tortured. Right?". I hear a "mhm" from the green field thingy. I go forward to touch it only for my hand to me smacked away. I gasp and say, "Ouch!". I look at the person who smacked my hand and growl, "Whats the big fucking problem assbag?". The clone growls and says, "You should watch that filthy tongue with me Cat-". The Clone's eyes widened before there was sparks flying out the asshole's neck and his eyes became similar to Primes. My eyes widen and I jump back from the clone. What the fuck was that?!

"Ah sister, not disturbing the Queen are you?", The clone says but in Prime's voice. I raise a brow and say, "No, I was just walking by and decided to say hi". The clone nods and says, "Good little sister. The queen is to not be communicated with. You must not disturb her sister". I raise a brow before bowing my head trying to show respect and say, "Yes, Lord Prime". I watched as the clone's eyes returned back to normal. "This space is off-limits to you little sister", The clone says roughly, grabbing me by the shoulder and dragging me away from Glimmer's cell/room thing.

I watched as two clones touched the green barricade thing and watched as it faded away. I watched as they grabbed Glimmer and dragged her away from me, towards where Lord Prime's throneroom would be. I look Glimmer in the eyes, narrowing my own and examined her. She looks exhausted. Before I knew it I was in the middle of the corridor again. I sigh and run a hand through my hair and walk down the halls. I need to get her out of here somehow. I just  need to come up with a plan. Someway to escape from Lord Prime without either of us getting hurt or held back. And I need to get Adora as far away from this place as possible. I just have a feeling Adora and her sUpEr PrInCeSs sQuAd are on their way now to rescue Glimmer.

I turn the corner and overheard the conversation between Glimmer and Prime. "Tell me your majesty, trade information on your father for She-Ra?". I hear something glass shatter and Glimmer's angry words rumble through the halls, "No. never. I will NEVER help you. Im not like Catra. Im not gullible". My eyes widened and I winced, scratching the back of my neck. Damn, ouch. That stung your majesty. Anyways, you definitely arent me. You are nauseously kind and sweet. Im glad im not like that or I would've had Shadow Weaver end me the moment I spoke. I walked past the room and laid on a window sill, looking at our precious Etheria down below. I wonder what Adora's doing? I shake my head and hit it roughly with my palm and scold myself mentally. The hell are you talking about?! You dont care. You pushed her away. You hate her and you made her hate you. Like it's supposed to be. Stop being weak Catra. I sigh and curl my tail around my feet and close my eyes.
