Chapter Text
Catra promised you that Adora wouldn’t be in any real danger, nor would anyone else. This would just help you get back at Adora for fawning over Huntara. Catra promised you… yet Adora was in the Fright Zone, tied up and helpless as she struggled against the bonds.
This wasn’t right. This wasn’t want you wanted. You needed to save her. You needed to set things right, even if she would never speak to you after this. If you didn’t, you might have just doomed Etheria due to your pettiness.
You felt like a child. Only a child could have done something as reckless and stupid as you. No. Scratch that. Frosta would have never done this. Children were more mature than you.
Focus. You need an opening.
Thankfully, one came when Entrapta left the room. You quickly ran into it after she left.
“Adora!” You whisper yelled a you got close, key in hand.
“(Y/N)? What are you doing here!?” Adora growled. It hurt to hear that tone, but you felt like you deserved it.
“I’m here to rescue you.” You said. Adora scoffed.
“Yeah, sure. Now you want to help.” She said. You shook your head.
“We don’t have time for this. We need to leave-”
“We?” Adora spat. “You need to leave. You made your choice.”
“Listen, you can hate me all you want after this but I need to free you.” You walked over to her cuffs. She struggled to put distance between the two of you and failed.
“I don’t want your help! We wouldn’t have been in this situation if you didn’t betray me!” You narrowed your eyes at her.
“Me? I only felt the need to go to Catra because of you! You flirted with Huntara right in front of me! Does our relationship mean nothing to you?” You hissed back.
“It did when you were on my side! It means nothing now. But that’s not my fault. It’s yours. We could have talked it out! It wasn’t flirting at all! You were so quick to jump to conclusions and now look. Are you happy?”
You stayed silent.
“Leave me alone. I don’t need your help. I can’t even trust you, let alone look at you anymore.”
