15 What If....?

Begin to cry

~Adora~

"Disappointing, some creatures are destined only for destruction" Horde Prime and Catra said in unison. Suddenly I see Catra's beautiful mixed eyes drowned in fear and she screams and falls back.

"No!" I yell reaching for and missing her by only a second. I can't lose her but the others.... No. I don't care if I'm risking the ending of She-ra. I'd rather die than lose her.

Then I jump after her.

...

How long have I been out? Where am I?

Where's Catra?!

I looked around to find her. I had to find her. I saw her, sprawled on the floor next to me. I struggle to stand up fighting against my legs who were still damaged by the fall.

I've got to get to her.

I begin to crawl out of necessity. When I reach her, i call out to her.

"Catra" I whisper, but she's not responding. "Catra? It's okay," I calmly speak to reassure her she'll be okay.

I'll make sure of it.

I embrace her hoping to wake her up with my warmth.

"I'm here," those words, how long how I wanted to tell her these words. Will they reach her? Oh please Catra hear me.

Catra's breathing slows as she struggles to breath. I hear footsteps but it doesn't matter anymore. She's all that matters. I hug her tightly as I embrace what's to come of me.

"I am sorry for the needless waste, Adora. It did not have to be like this, are you ready to corporate?"

That's enough. I wouldn't allow them to hurt her anymore.

I stroke her hair softly,

I promise I'll get you home Catra.

...

"Hey Darla, get us out of here." I said without haste.

"Affirmative"

"And Darla, make it quick," I finish looking back at into Prime's villainous ship.

I'm getting you out of here Catra.

Once I make sure we're out into space and no ones following I'm reminded of Catra. I turn and watch Gimmer and Bow at her side, bow's in tears but I can't think about it.

All I can think about is her. For so long I thought she was beyond saving. For so long I've suffered the insufferable pain of missing her, her laugh, her smile, her competitive side that just made you want to lose just to see her overjoyed. Even if she didn't feel the same about me, I couldn't help but look for her every time there was a battle. I couldn't help feeling that warmth in my chest every time she would say 'hey Adora~' what would I do in a world without you Catra? My equal. I'm so sorry for leaving you in the horde. Please please I beg of you give me another chance Catra. Even if you don't feel the same I just want to be your side.

"You're-" we're "-not done Catra, not yet" I whisper as I hold her in my arms. Please work, She-Ra please grant me your power to heal the love of my life.

After a few seconds I look down to see her, but her breathing hasn't returned. And she's so cold. That's not right. She has fur and clothes she can't be cold.

Again. Until you get it right.

I try again this time reflecting on all the times I knew I loved her. And at all the times I didn't know but still felt it in my stomach and heart. I open my eyes to see her.

No. Again. Adora.

Again.

And again.

And again.

And again!

Again! Again! Again! I won't give up! Catra wake up please!

AGAIN!

I opened my eyes abruptly when I felt a heavy hand on me. I look up to see Glimmer and Bow crying and shaking their head.

No.

I hold tighter onto Catra afraid that if I let go it'll be the end.

No! We deserve a second chance!

"Adora" glimmer said softly, trying to take Catra from me. I jerk away from them cradling Catra gently.

"She'll wake up I just need to try again."

I shut my eyes and concentrate to try to draw the most power I've ever drawn.

Again Adora!

AGAIN!

"Please Catra please let me see that smile again, please say my name, please laugh, please do anything I'm begging you"

Again.

But it never worked.
