"Greed....such greed....you have power yet you desire more." A female voice echoes out.
"Actually this was more of my friends idea than mine. I just want to talk." Catra says
"Then come find me."
The voice says before the scenery around Catra changes into training hall that she and Adora used to train in during there days in the Horde.
"Really? What is the deal with Runestones and their Trials. Ugh...fine what am I fighting?" Catra says stretching
Lurking from the darkness comes out shadow weaver.
"Ugh really? Didn't I just get rid of you." Catra says
"Catra...Catra...Catra...did you honestly think you'd ever get rid of me?" Shadow weaver says
"I mean I can certainly try!"
Catra says using her ability to enhance her speed. She quickly charges at shadow weaver. Shadow weaver slams her hand on the ground and a blast of red lighting spreads throughout the area.
"You think that'll work on me!"
Catra jumps and lunges towards shadow weaver.
"Insolent child!"
Shadow weaver tries to fire another but is surprised to see Catra dissapeared.
"The real shadow weaver would have seen this coming."
Catra quietly says as her claws pierce through shadow weavers chest.
"This is getting boring. Couldn't you have picked someone from my memories with more of a bite." Catra says looking at shadow weaver scatter into darkness.
"It looks like you've strengthened your mind since you've met me." A male voice says
Catra's instantly jumps back and extends her claws to strike but stops as she see's a smaller version of it floating around her.
"Your smaller than I remember also how are you here?" Catra says
"My sisters is weak right now. she isn't strong enough to block my connection to you." The black Garnet says seemingly amused
Suddenly the room shift black.
"Looks like you pissed her off." Catra says snickering
"She was always so prideful and arrogant looks like being abandoned made hurt her pride." The black Garnet says laughing
Catra heightens her senses, she closes her eyes and starts to listen to anything moving. But as she reaches out she feels no wind, weirdly no air, but she can still breath it's odd. She concentrates more but then she starts to smell a metallic smell in the air. The sound of liquid droplets splattering against the floor. A swarm of familiar smells start to flood her senses, Entrapta's scent of chemicals and lab experiments, Perfuma's scent of flowers, and the smell of a person she hasn't seen in quite some time. Just as she tries to inhale more of it she feels her hand touch flesh. Catra opens eyes and freezes, her eyes widen I'm shock.
Catra looks down at her hand that's now pierced Adora in the chest. She looks around to see the bodies of all her friends sprawled out lifeless. As she stares into Adora's eyes the look betrayal and confusion within her.
"C...Cat...why? I...thought...you....loved me." Adora says
Her body collapsing on the ground her eyes lifeless as Catra's hand leaves her still warm body.
"No! Athena you don't know what your doing! She going to destroy you! Turn it off!" The Black Garnet shouts
The sound of lighting echo throughout the area, lighting arcing off Catra starts to crackle. Her veins start to pulse, Catra's eyes start crackle with lighting. The sound of grinding starts to reverberate from her mouth, her face contorts in unadulterated rage. A loud growl creeps up her throat, the ever expanding darkness suddenly cracks. A single tear then it spiderwebs into thousands cracks.
"I've had enough of these games." Catra says her voice cold.
She concentrates and expands her aura to every where she can and starts to destroy everything from her.
Suddenly like thousands of windows shattering at once, the darkness around them comes crashing down to reveal a large blue crystal with many cracks appearing over its surface. Fainting glowing steady like a heart beat.
"Looks like your about to burn out. All those cracks are just leaking magical energy. Must be painful, but don't worry I'll help snuff the light out." Catra says storming up to it claws extended.
"Wait! Please carta I know she did something she shouldn't have but please she's my sister. Even with everything she's done please show some mercy." The black garent says floating in front of Catra.
"Enough. Atlas I am not so low that I need help from my little brother." She says her voice mature but tired and still with a hint of pride.
"You idiot she'll kill you if she has too! Stop hanging onto to some lost sense of pride!
Athena please just talk to her." Atlas shouts"So your names Atlas huh I like it. You see Athena I really was going to just talk to you.
Which you knew because you Runestones like poking me in my head. So new deal. You work with me and we can treat each other with respect. Or you can continue being a prick and I almost break you and leave you in the whispering woods like how she-ra abandoned you." Catra says"..."
"Listen to her." Altas says
"Even if we connected to each other, you one don't have the genetic structure to use me without your body tearing itself apart. Second your already connected to my brother, another connection will scatter your magical energy in two many directions." Athena says her voice quite.
"I'm only connected to Atlas by a fragment. Besides I don't need a full connection from you either. Could you supply me with more magic or anything really." Catra says calming herself down.
"I could supply you with mana and I could let you use some of my abilities." Athena says
"Which abilities." Catra says
"Energy Blast that's all anymore and it would kill you." Athena says
"Even with my prosthetic as buffer. It would still kill me?" Catra says
"You would be able to consume more magic from me but that's it. But that too will destroy your arm." Athena says
"Good enough. I hope we can work together in the future. Oh yeah before I go. If you ever show me something like that again I'll destroy." Catra says glaring at Athena.
