Lance shifted I his bed, a sudden panic swept over him when Keith wasn't there. He shot up ignoring the pain and got dressed. As he opened the door Hunk and Pride rushed by down the hall, the two came to a halt slowly tuning around, "Lance!" Hunk shouted happily rushing back to the blue paladin. Lance rubbed his eyes staying silent, he only now realized how loud Hunk was. "Lance don't freak out but.."

"Keith is having a melt down!" Pidge interrupted. Lance looked a bit shocked, Hunk grabbed his wrist and led him to the training deck going at Lances pace this time since he wasn't in any shape to run. The door was open and everyone was crowed around it. "10133181 would you like to increase the levels difficultly?" The ship asked in a calm voice. "Yes-" Keith shouted back as two more drones came out with guns. There were now ten drones attacking him, and two shooting at him. He cut through them all angrily only to have more appear. But not attack just yet. "10133181 you have completed level 10.3- Would you like me to customize a level special to your needs?" Keith wiped his face with his shirt. He had a few cuts but nothing to bad, his blood was a deep reddish purple.

Lance pushed past the others, Keith looked up out of breath. Now noticing everyone watching him. "10133181- Would you like to terminate this training session?" Lance got a little closer, "What's all the numbers?" The ship responded before Keith could, "Subject 10133181 of operation Forty-two D. Prefers to be called, Keith." The two looked extremely confused. Why did Allura's ship have so much information? Pidge gasped, "I've heard of that before! I hacked into a Galra ship an uploaded all their info to the ship to upgrade the maps but all I got were numbers, they weren't codes- Who would've thought they belonged to aliens as subject names!!"

"So what does that mean for me Pidge?" Keith looked a bit concerned. It hadn't been long since he started the simulation but he didnt think too much about the numbers till now. "Well... It means you were probably on Earth for a reason, like a lab rat in a maze or something. Yknow, find your way back into space to get the cheese.. Or maybe turtles are a better example, mama burys you in the sand, a.k.a Earth, and you gotta get back to the ocean, a.k.a space? I really don't know.. I haven't been looking through that data for weeks now so I don't recall anything about a specific operation.. "

"So.. If I'm "back in space" already what does that mean?"

"Well.. Hm... Maybe the Galra were trying to expand other army's? Mixing Galra with different breads of fighting styles to combine with their own to become unstoppable.."

"How many line of numbers were there?"

"Hundreds.."

"This might not be easy, but if they haven't found Zarcon yet maybe we could expand Voltrons coalition once we get Shiro back? Let his plan backfire an give us the upper hand?" 

It was actually a pretty good idea... Once Shiro was found, which Pidge had been working on since the ship was deemed safe, they could really get to work liberating people from under Zarcon's control.. 

Lance looked around, unsure why they were talking about 'getting Shiro back'

"Wait, Shiro's gone?"
