Outbreak

꧁────────♡-♡-♡────────꧂

"The next time this door opens, overwhelm the guard," Krolia instructed as she stepped next to the door frame, looking through the small slit in the metal.

You all followed suit, standing ready to fight. You had to be quick now, or else Mardoov would return and the whole thing would become a whole lot more difficult.

Suddenly, some commotion seemed to be happening outside. You narrowed your eyes, trying to see it, but the only thing you could make out was the guard in front of you falling with no attacker inside.

"What just happened?" you whispered, furrowing your brows. The door hissed, and the gate rose to reveal the scene before you.

"Whoa," Lance said, looking at the mice with wide eyes. "Okay, so these mice can fight."

"Seems so," you replied, stepping closer.

Allura bent down to them, thanking them as they squeaked in response. Her face fell, and she asked further questions to replies you couldn't even understand.

Hunk interjected, "What? What are they saying?"

"Coran's trying to rescue us. Lotor's team is there too."

You followed the mice across the hallways, right to where a gigantic guard stood. He almost reached the ceiling, with massive arms and steam coming from his suit.

"What are they feeding these guys?" you asked, getting ready to jump him.

"Wait, let me handle it," Allura interrupted, putting an arm in front of you to stop your attack.

"Sure, go ahead," you replied, watching her move. She transformed into a bigger version of herself with the help of her Altean powers. You watched intently, mouth open in astonishment as she stepped forward, swung her arm to gain momentum, and then knocked the guard right out.

She hit him in the back of the head, and immediately, he dropped like a sack of sand.

His dropping to the ground revealed Coran, who was standing in front of him just now, with his fists held high and his face clearly demolished. you cringed at the sight.

Upon seeing you guys, he dropped to his knees, sighing in relief.

Keith and Lance immediately came to help him, taking his arms and putting them around their shoulders to lift him off the ground. "See? You got lucky," Coran said to the fallen guard.

"Coran," you called for his attention. "Where are Lotor and the others?"

"I don't know, where am I?" he slurred out, lifting his finger in question. He looked around as if just now finding himself in this new place.

"Um, are you okay?" Shiro asked.

"Never been better. Now let's get our hayards and get to the bangars."
