Reunion [Voltron]

(Note: this was written before season 4 came out. It's now purely a random read.)
"Shiro!" Keith shouted, tears nearly coming to his eyes. Quickly, he lifted his bayard and it transformed into a blade. He started to run over but was interrupted by Galra soldiers blasting at him. He darted behind a few metal crates for cover and Lance kneeled next to him.

"There's too many of them," Keith murmured, speaking a mile a minute. "I can't get past!"

"I've got ya covered, buddy!" Lance exclaimed, flashing a quick smile and raising his blaster. He aimed and fired at the Galra, rapidly taking them down.

Keith nodded and leapt over the nearest crate, quickly slashing at the alien soldiers with his blade. He stumbled over a bit and went to help Shiro and the newest stranger.

"Avoid crossfire, guys! I don't wanna get roasted anytime soon!" Hunk shouted over the battle. Pidge stood back-to-back with him, but then something caught her eye. A flash of brown hair similar to her own disappeared behind a corner as the Galra ran after it.

"Watch my tail! I'm going after them!" Pidge exclaimed rapidly, and dashed past the gunslingers and down the corner.

Lance and Hunk gave each other a quick, worried glance as they were the only two Paladins in the room fighting.

Pidge immediately saw Shiro and someone else with him, being overwhelmed with the amount of Galra firing at them. Shiro had his teeth clenched as he had a worn blaster, trying to fire as many times as he could before the ammo ran out. The other person wasn't tall enough for Pidge to see clearly, but she knew he was in as much trouble as everyone else.

Keith suddenly took his place next to Pidge, protecting the two from any wandering laser beams coming their direction. "What's the scoop, Pidge? Any openings to help those guys out?" Keith asked, nearly avoiding a blast to the head.

"Well, there's a large horde of Galra that seem to be closing in, and Shiro and the other person seem to be fighting the majority of them off. And who knows when that hallway ends." Pidge muttered rapidly, spitting out words and slurring her speech a bit.

"So we've gotta lighten the load and even it out a bit." Keith said thoughtfully.

"Right! Divert the crowd." Pidge agreed firmly, jumping out of the way right before a swarm of beams flew at her. Reaching for her bayard, the Green Paladin ran straight for the crowd of soldiers. Her weapon swung out and knocked a good few of them out. "Hey! Metal-heads!"

The majority of the Galra soldiers looked over at her and Keith. "Wanna piece of me? The incredibly armed and dangerous ones?" Pidge shouted tauntingly. She saw Keith roll his eyes at that one.

The Galra soldiers almost completely forgot about Shiro and the other being and started firing rapidly at Keith and Pidge. "Uh oh." Pidge muttered, and the two darted for cover.

"Guess they didn't like your pun!" Keith yelled quickly, and jumped up and swung at the closest enemies. He knocked a line of them over with his foot and stood on the fallen mound to fire.

"Yeah, well, they'll have to get used to it!" Pidge yelled, swung her weapon at the charging Galra, and ran down the hall. "Make sure I don't get blasted to pieces! I'm gonna help Shiro!"

"Okay...!" Keith's voice seemed to fade as the adrenaline pumping in Pidge's body blocked it out. She turned the corner only to be greeted by a being falling onto her.

"Oof...!" Pidge said as she toppled to the ground. Surprised, she yanked her bayard up only to be stopped by the figure's hand.

A single word slipped from her mouth. "Matt...?"
