"Hey, Adora? You have a second?"

______________________________________

Adora glanced in the direction of the voice she knew too well. It was calm, but there was a hint of joy in the tone.

Glimmer stood a few feet away from the pair with a large smile on her face.
"Glimmer? What's up?"
"Ahah, The Sky~...." She purred, smirking smugly as she continued to speak with pride. "And also, Bow and Entrapta are working on a device to locate Brightmoon again." She smiled, raising her arms with joy as she flapped them around like a wild bird. 
"That's great, Glimmer!" Adora beamed.
"And that's not all. It's suspected to have fallen apart a bit because of Prime. We're sending a team the second the device is complete." The queen added.

Catra stood in the background, somewhat confused. They were once again, talking about princess and queen duties and all that nonsense. It was one of those moments where you just want to disappear off to somewhere else.

Whilst Adora and Glimmer were too busy chatting about future plans and stuff, Catra was once again, looking at her surroundings. The trees seemed to loom over them more than usual. They also looked slightly darker too. It was radiating negative vibes.
'Jeez. What's with this place? It was fine a second ago.' The half-cat wondered. She then glanced down at the ground surroundings, realising her companion wasn't with her like usual. Infact, Melog hadn't been with her all day.'Where's Melog..?'

"Catra?" Adora called, snapping her out of her thoughts within a second. When Catra glanced over her shoulder, she saw her blonde, blue-eyed godess looking right at her.
"......" Catra stood there in an awkward silence as Adora continued to speak. "I'm going to a meeting. I'll see you later, alright?"
"Uh--" Catra span around, placing her hand on the back of her neck. "Sure."

It was now late in the evening: It was slowly coming up to Quarter To Eight, meaning that it was going to be Nine O'clock within Fifteen minutes. Catra was laying on her back, staring at the fabric of the tent above her. Melog was once again by her side. It seemed like the day would never come to an end. So much happened, it made Catra wonder if the days were longer now since Etheria had been reborn.

The half-cat noticed a small grunt coming from next to her. It was then followed by a small huff. Catra glanced at Melog, only to find It's chin right next to her face. No wonder  it was loud.
"Melog? What is it?" Catra sighed, glancing at her companion with tired eyes. The beast just stayed there, staring at the girl. She could tell what it wanted: Attention.

Catra raised her left hand and placed it on Melog's head, gently scratching Its ear. It let out purrs of satisfaction as Catra did so, and it brought a smile to her face.

She hadn't done much after Adora went to the meeting. All she did was walk around aimlessly, occasionally running into people. But there were less of the princesses than usual. The only ones who appeared the most were Spinnerella, Netossa and Scorpia.

And surprisingly, Melog was with Scorpia too. The Half-Scorpian had found a twig of some sort and began throwing it, leaving Melog to go and fetch it. Which was strange, since Feline companions don't usually play fetch. They usually just do whatever they wanted; if it was sleep all day, then they'd sleep all day.

Everytime the twig was in Scorpia's claw, you'd expect it to snap or even break completely. But surprisingly, it didn't.

Spinnerella and Netossa on the other hand were just exploring, being careful to not get lost like Catra and Perfuma had already done earlier that day. They were examining the trees and grass. The trees had a new type of fruit growing on them, and the grass looked slightly blue. It was like two different Biomes had met and they were at the joining point. Behind the pair was the grasslands, where the camp was set, also where Scorpia and Melog were. And infront of the pair, was a never ending forest with the most exquisite of life. 

The pair decided that after Glimmer was out of the meeting, they'd go talk to her about the new life they'd found not far from the camp. The grass there was a light shade of blue: Roughly pastel blue. The grass swayed just like the normal grass did, but it looked more magical. The trees had dark brown bark, but had bright purple/pink leaves. It looked so different, yet wasn't much different from the grass and trees everyone had come to know.

Catra was brought back to reality when Melog sneezed out of nowhere, startling her. It sounded like a small, wholesome Ah-Poof. It was adorable. Even Catra found It wholesome, even though she remembered her sneezing incident infront of Adora, Bow and Glimmer. It was a never ending argument of "Awwwwhh." And "I Am Not Cute!" - Mainly coming from Catra.

Ahah, I am not good with Schedules and Deadlines. But even so, they should all be released a few days after the Monday It's supposed to be out.

But I'd say this is usually my reaction when I realise I've run out of premade chapters:
