True Colours ▸ Pidge Holt {Voltron WA 2017}

P R O L O G U E

With systems failing, the Green Lion descended towards the impenetrable surface below. Mounts of viridescent scenery passed the Lion's paladin as they crashed and burned through every poor tree that intercepted their path.

And then, the once mighty machine, connected with the meadow that lay on an unknown planet. The green clad female coughed and wheezed as she rolled out of the Lion's mouth. Burns covered both her skin and her armour, the places that weren't burnt were scratched as if a cat thought she was a scratching post.

Pidge winced as she attempted stand but with no success. She continued to attempt to rise to her feet multiple times, but still collapse over and over again. Pidge finally gave up and decided to see how her Lion was holding up. She realised her mistake to late.

The almighty Green Lion of Voltron was now a pile of scrape. It was almost unrecognisable as a Lion, let alone one of five of the most powerful weapons in the known universe. Pidge suddenly felt tears begin to emerge at the situation she was in, but she quickly rubbed them to hide the tears from the nonexistent person that could see her crying.

As she composed herself, she took time to think of where her friends could have possible ended up. Were they together or separated from one another like her? The Green Paladin decided that she would ponder on that later as she determined that it would be a smart idea to get cover for a storm seemed to be brewing off in the distance.

With new determination, Pidge attempted, one more time, to stand. She wobbled like she had two left feet but was able to stay upright. With a sigh of relief, Pidge began to slowly but surely climb over the teared limbs of her Lion.

Once she made it inside, Pidge placed her small hand on the interior of the Lion and warmly smiled when she heard the soft hum that she came accustomed to when she rode with her mechanical friend.

"Don't worry." Pidge whispered in an, almost, inaudible volume to the Green Lion, "I'll get you fixed up in no time and then we'll find the others."

She leaned against the humming walls and closed her eyes, "Everything will be fine..."

*****

Just to give you guys a heads up. In this story, Pidge's love interest will be male, because, although I have nothing against people who are gay, I just don't think that Pidge is. She might be, or she might be asexual, bisexual or pan-sexual for all we know? But so far, we have no indication of what her sexuality actually is, so I'm just going to assume that she is straight. Since I am a straight woman myself, I find it easier to write and also relate to. Also, there are tons of Pidge x fem!readers and fem!OC and no Pidge x male. Just wanted to try something different.

Hopefully my little rant has given you indication if you are going to continue to read this.

On nicer terms, I'm really looking forward to write this and I hope you are excited to read it! My chapters will be longer than the prologue, but I was just setting the scene.
