Out There: A Voltron x Reader Story

Part 1 ~ Chapter 7 ~ The Transmission

The Transmission

💚Pidge's POV💚

I wander down the halls of the castle. The patter of my feet echoing off the walls. Allura rounds the corner her head down. "Hey Allura." Surprised she looks up plastering a smile on her face.

"Pidge! Good news (y/n) is fully healed. I think we should consider her staying on, she has talent. I'm going to go lie down now my head aches. Goodbye!" That was weird. She isn't usually this awkward. I shake my head dismissing the thought. I wish Slav was still here. He could have helped me in my search for Matt, or at least provided some form of a lead. But the decision had been made so expeditiously that I hadn't had time to ask if there was a way for me to find him. He had left with the Blade of Marmora, Allura came to an agreement to let us go MIA until we could repair any damage and recuperate. Plus we needed the break, if we fought in the state we are in now, we'd all end up captured or dead. I reach my room, the moment the door opens I rush inside. Flipping my laptop open I pull my pillow to the floor sitting on it. My fingers mindlessly click away at the silver keys. Wait what the!? My screen turns black. I jab the power button rapidly. No, no, no! Then an array of strange red shapes, some language it looks like, fills my screen. It's not galra or altean. "Hey will you try this, woah what's that!?" I hear Hunk says coming into my room. He moves behind me to get a better look.

"I don't know. Something got into my computer, but I can't understand how, unless-" I'm cut off mid sentence by the castle intercom.

"Paladins and (y/n) meet me at the front of the ship immediately!?" I pop up grabbing my laptop. Hunk and I rush out of the room. We reach the front of the ship just as Lance, Allura, and Coran do. The doors slide open and we all go in. (Y/n) lies on the floor apparently fast asleep, Keith in Shiro's chair asleep as well. The both of them shifting slightly wake up confused by our presence. But what is even more concerning the entire window of the castle is covered in the same language as my computer. Allura's eyes widen and she staggers slightly Coran catching her."Oh quiznak. This can't be happening!"

"Allura what's happening!?" Keith says standing up. I wonder why they were in here together. Eh, I'll figure that out later but I totally ship it.

"That's Pensurian." Coran states helping Allura stabilize on her feet. He rushes to the main control panel but when it turns on the language is there too. "Pidge, come with me, I need to get a translation book. You could be of some help." The look on his face caused the situation to feel dire. Allura is frozen and soundlessly I follow Coran out of the room.

"Uh, Coran what exactly is Pensurian?" I ask trying to keep up.

"It's the language of the Pensurs. They are terrible things. They take in other species and do horrible things to them, without any regards for how they feel." His tone was dark. I have never seen Coran this way. Something about this species really made him tick.

"So like a sociopath."

"No not exactly, they share a strong bond and love for their fellow brethren. Much like us." We reach a small entry way spanning about six feet in height and four feet across. Inside lies a small collection of what appear to be books. Stroking his fingers across the spines he stops at one pulling it out. "Here see if you can find the chapter on Pensurs." He hands it to me as I set down my laptop on a near by counter. My fingers flick through the pages until I find the section.

"Found it!" I show it to Coran. "Here," I open up my laptop the language still there, "I can start translating." I match all the 'words' to the corresponding word in altean. Oh my god. "Coran we need to go now." I start sprinting back to the front of the ship. I burst into the room. "Allura it's (y/n) they want her."

Author's Note:
