Hardships

The Healing Springs

Catra's POV:

I opened my eyes with a groan, blinking away the blurriness looking around. What the fuck? where am I? Thats when it all came back to me, I try to feel my back but I was only met with restraint.

I growl while I look at the chains all over my body: on my arms, legs, and chest chaining me down on the floor. Where is Adora? I think before a man walks in, slamming the door behind him.

"Oh your awake", The man chuckles approaching me. My eyes widened when I saw the blood on his hands. I pulled against my chains and barked, " DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?! WHAT DID YOU DO?". The man chuckles and kicks me in the stomach, with inhumane strength. I coughed out in pain, before the man grabbed my cheeks roughly and snickered, " You are fiesty arent you? Well I cant say the same for your little friends. Especially that blonde one, my my she was a fun one to torment. There is a game that if you win you can save your friends and you can stay here for as long as you want".

I felt my anger boiling and growled, "WHAT DID YOU DO?!".  The man cackles and slaps me across the face with the same force he had with the kick. I blink  in surprise and say, "You know what, I'll play your stupid fucking game". The man's smile turned wicked and he claps his hands together and squeal, "Perfect!".

I roll my eyes and ask sternly, "What is this game?". The man smirks and moves closer to me and whispers in my ear, " Bloodlust". I felt my body jolt in pain, my eyes burning more and more with each wave of pain.

'Whats going on Catrina?! What are you doing?!'. My father's voice echoes in my voice. I growl and struggle against the chains trying to fight the pain until I felt myself fade away, my head dropping and suddenly something, someone else was taking control of my body but it still felt like I was in my body. What in the hell is happening to me... twice this has happened.

"Ah, I wonder how this will change things don't you...? Impostor? ", The man cackles a smirk playing on his lips. I pant and look up at him, his eyes widening in something I hadnt expect... fear. "Oh lord, I-Ive made a huge mistake..".  The man backs away from me as I felt the energy coursing through my veins grow stronger and stronger with each breath I took.

I growl and with one tug, I was free of my chains. "You messed up buddy", I chuckle cracking my knuckles and neck before smiling and grabbing the man by the collar before he growls and yells, " Demon Blaze: Paralyzation". My eyes widened when my body was frozen in place. "W-What did you do to me?!", I demand before a fist met my face, and a bag was put over my head.

————————————————————————

My knees made contact with the cold ground and the bag was yanked off my head. "Father, there is something you need to see", The man from before voices as he walked behind the throne. I look around the room and realize im in some type of throne room.

The man from before comes back with someone else. Is that King Giosis? My eyes widened when the king exclaimed, " Catrina?!". I blinked and said, "Ye-", before I scooped up into a tight hug. What in the fuck..?

"Dad why the fuck are you hugging the prisoner?!", The man behind him yells. The king chuckles and says, "Prisoner?! Please Colossus! Catrina here is going to be our savior. Her father visited me in my dreams and revealed that Catra would save all of Taron from Kade's rule". My father?  The king sets me down with a chuckle before returning to his throne.

"Wait so this prisoner is the savior? Shes the true Catrina of Taros?", Colossus asks with a quirked brow pointing at me.  I smirk and say, "You're slow as a mother fucker dude, yes Im myself". Flames erupt around Colossus as he speeds towards me, stopping in front of me and grabbing be my the collar of my shirt his eyes glowing like embers, " WHAT DID YOU SAY?!".
