So sorry for not updating for almost a month. Anyways heres the chapter!

Your eyes slowly flutter open, and all you hear is a constant ringing. Debris from the blast covers your fallen body. Coughing, you barely manage to stand up, your knees intensely shaking. You look around with slight double-vision, fire set ablaze among the once exotic, beautiful trees.

"K-Keith!" You yell, tasting iron in your mouth. "W-where are you?" Your throat stings when you scream out. But, you still call, because you cant lose him. You just cant...

Suddenly, you black out once again, your limp body landing back on the solid ground.

~Few Days Later~

You are sitting in a cell with your head propped against the wall. This happened within a couple days-when you were separated from the rest of the Voltron paladins. You have no idea where they are, if theyre safe, or in the same situation as you.

A soldier reluctantly pushes a plate of mush through the little slit in the door. "Heres your lunch."

"Wonderful," you say sarcastically. "Looks amazing and all, but got anything better? Like a nice plate of food goo?"

This earns you nothing but a skipped dinner, once again. This has been your daily routine, lazily sitting around and being a smart ass. That is, until you hear guards yelling outside your cell door.

What is that all about?  You think to yourself. You crawl as far as your rusted chains could take you, sneakily peeking out the almost shattered window.

It was Keith.

Your heart skips a beat and your cheeks begin to unexpectedly heat up. Swiftly you grab a pin from your hair-that you were saving for this very purpose-and hurriedly pick the blood stained locks free. You stand up, wobbling ever so slightly. "Hey, whats going on out there?" You ask, trying get the guard distracted.

"There is an intru-" Before he can finish, you grab his arm through the narrow slot. You bang his head against the glass-breaking it-and he passes out. Still holding his arm, you place the mans purple hand on the scanner pad. The door slides open, and you scramble out to your freedom.

Carelessly, you slip out a grin.

After four days in this hellhole, your hero had finally come to save you.

Your hero, Keith.
