Catra

"And you" Adora said, eyes defiant, the world around them crumbling into nothing "you made your choice, NOW LIVE WITH IT" rushing at Adora in a final attempt, the hard punch from Adoras fist was the last thing Catra felt before her unconsciousness took her.

Waking all Catra could feel was a burning sensation around her body and a migraine pounding between her eyes. Looking around she noticed she was not in the portal that she remembered before being struck unconscious, she was lying in a bush in what appeared to be a small park in a much larger city.

Getting to her feet Catra's eyes widened at the realization that she recognised none of this place. The city smelt like the fright zone, however it looked different and the air wasn't as heavy with smog as she was used to. 'Where the hell am i' she wondered, 'I don't know how but this is all Adoras fault'.

After leaving the park and wandering around for a couple of hours Catra couldn't help but notice all the strange looks she was getting, people would cautiously eye her as she passed. One man went even so far as to pull a small firearm on her, a quick swipe of the claws cleaned up the firearm and took a couple fingers off him in the process.

As Catra explored the city she realized she had picked up a tail, and not a very good tail. For one it was a group not just an individual, a group of women. Spying what looked like a large library Catra made a beeline for it in the hopes of slipping away from them amongst the books and people.

Cassie

Lunch with the other girls from the team wasn't what Cassie had in mind for her day, she wouldn't say she was regretting it though. Barbara had known of a nice café that could seat them all, and Raquel had brought her A game to interrogating the other girls on their private lives.

During a lull in the conversation Cassie had only been half listening to she spied something odd out on the street "hey what's that" Artemis asked noticing the same thing as Cassie. a cat girl, small and cute looking, with a wild head of hair, dressed in what looked like a uniform.

Upon seeing the feline meta walk down the path immediately put the other girls on alert, at a subtle nod from Barbara the squad quickly stood and followed. Reaching a large library the girls watched as the feline slipped inside before quickly following after. Seeing no sign the girls split up in search of their feline quarry.

Cassie couldn't see anyone resembling the feline meta, moving up to the second floor Cassie caught the end of a tail slipping out one of the windows, the locks on it cut clean. Quickly rushing to the window, Cassie looked around for anyone spying on her before vaulting out and landing in an alley between the library and the building next to it.

Seeing no sign of the meta Cassie moved towards the exit when a hand harshly shoved her into the wall. Cassie was prepared for a fight, what she was not prepared for was the shocked look of a cat girl staring at her with large beautiful blue and yellow eyes. She looked as if she knew Cassie, a look that spoke of familiarity crossed her face before she slowly sidled up closer to Cassie.

Cassie stood frozen, breathe stilled as the feline reached up to cup her cheek, staring deeply into her eyes and smiled the most gorgeous smile she'd ever seen, making her cheeks flare up with heat. Closing the space between them, face as close to her own as she could get to on her tiptoes "Hey Adora" she purred.

Hearing another name shocked a bit of feeling back into Cassie's muscles, breaking the spell that had rendered her immovable. it must've shown on her face as the feline frowned before closing her eyes and sniffing at her face, further intensifying the flames in her cheeks to spread to her ears and neck.

"Hmmm" the feline mused as she opened her eyes again and stared back into Cassies own. "Not Adora" hand slipping away and a new space suddenly between them, Cassie felt like she could breathe again. "Sorry about that, you look like someone i know" she apologized before slinking away back onto the street and into the crowd.

Out of sight, Cassie immediately bent over wheezing 'WHAT WAS THAT' she screamed at her thoughts. "Girl if you don't get some ice on those cheeks you're gonna look like a sundried tomato forever" a voice and movement immediately had Cassie whipping her head to the side, catching Raquel, Artemis and Barbara peeking out from an emergency exit in the side of the library towards the middle of the alley.

"I.. .i..wha..what, you saw that!" exclaimed Cassie, "if by 'saw' you mean we watched you turn into a bright red statue at the hands of a curvaceous looking meta, then yes, yes we did"

Cassie felt her cheeks flare again, feeling the need to defend herself "i was not a statue, or red!" she exclaimed, "girl i wasn't even sure you were breathing, there something you wanna admit" Cassie felt her head reel at Raquel's words and she didn't know why, "i..i don't know…maybe, i'm not sure ok"

"Hey hey it's cool" said roquet, "we got your back" nodded artemis along with Barbara, feeling slightly more confident cassie hesitantly nodded in acceptance "okay, well should we go after her" she asked, feeling a need to see the feline again.

"She'll be long gone by now, but next time we see her she's all yours" Raquel responded, smiling at the blush and embarrassed look Cassie adopted at her remark. Looking out towards the crowd Cassie secretly hoped they would meet again soon.
