Burning Water

Lance's POV

I smiled as the ship flew through the blue waters. It had been a months since the last time we had set sail.

The ships name was Voltron, the badest Pirate ship there ever was! I was the sharp shooter of the group as I can shoot a bullet and I always hit my target even if it is like a couple miles away! Yeah I know, I'm the best. Hell, I can even shoot a damn bow that good as well!

"Lance, stop flirting with yourself and get your arse over here." Pitch growled in anger as her brown eyes glared at me. 

Shivering in fear, I did as I was told. She may be both a woman and a small person, but she is a force to recon with!

"Okay, so we're going to Dragon's Island-" Shiro, the second mate of the ship, tried to tell us if Hunk didn't speak up.

"Wait, what?!" His brown eyes widen as fear and worry fell into them. "But, isn't that place like bad news! Legend has it that there is only one dragon, but it is different than the rest... Are you sure we should?" 

Hunk was always a worry wart, so we basically brushed him off. Though, this time he had a reason to be worried. He wasn't wrong, the dragon on that island is so dangerous that most of all the other dragons stay clear of it. They only go there every two months to drop off gold to keep this being from showing itself. 

"Yes, we're going there. Don't worry, Hunk, we're not going that far in the island," Pigde intrupted with a sigh. She was the brain of this whole gig with Coran. 

I smirked as I knew that this mission was not only to replenish our gold supply, but to also find something.

"What are we really going there for?" I asked, Shiro sighing as he shook his head. 

"We're going there because an island near there has been hearing some strange noises from the place. It could be a volcano eruption, but they say it sounds like screaming..." 

"So we're going to check it." Allura says with a grim look. Many of her people had tried to go to that island only to killed by the Dragons. 

"Well, what are we doing here? We need to get a move on!" I cheered in my most upbeat attuide as always. 

The white haired beauty smiled kindly at me. 

"Lance's right! Pidge in the map room with Coran! Hunk, Lance prepare the cannons in case we run into the Dragons!" Yelled the black haired man. 

I nodded as I rushed to below the decks to the weapon room. It only took for a few minutes, before I heard the labor breaths from Hunk. 

"Come on, Hunk!" I encourged as I loaded one of the cannons. 

The yellow wearing pirate nodded his head as he started on the other side of the room. I picked up another heavy metal sphre and loaded it in the advance cannon. Unlike most pirate cannons, these bad boys fire off three at a time! Does more damage and on a wider scale too! 

After loading the thing to its max, I moved to the next one as quickly as I could. We only had six on each side of the room, so it would have gone quicker if we had one more person. But me and Hunk had done this so many times by ourselfs, that we didn't even need help. 

The cannons were done within twenty minutes flat! Our fastest time!

"Should we go back up there?" The black-haired boy asked as he looked around the weaponry. 

I too looked around, but didn't really care about it that much. After all, I came from a poor foreign family that worked as blacksmiths. I was used to how weapons were made and how to make them. I just was never being exactly shown how... Besides the point! Being in here reminds me of my family.

"You can go without me," I waved off my old friend as I walk over to the guns.

The big guy sighed as he stared at me sadly. He knew that I was missing my family, plus he also would like the guns to be working properly.

"Don't go to over board like last time... At least do it with your own gun." He asked me before leaving.

I chuckled as I started to cleaning the shotgun. I made sure to reload it and that the barrel was clean. I moved to my guns. A rifle with two flint pistols. All three of them were modify to fight me. The rifle is more long range kills and take outs. The pistols, obviously, are for short distance, but they can also freeze any martial within seconds.  

"Lance get to the bridge!" Allura called down stairs as the ship started to rock. 

Grabbing my weapons as well as Hunk's, I ran up the stairs. Thankfully, I had gotten there in time as we were getting swarmed by those Dragons! 

Taking the rifle, I started shooting down the ones in the sky. If one got too close to me, I shot it with my pistols! 

"Hunk!" I called as I threw him his weapon. He caught it and started shooting down the dragons as well. 

"Shiro! Allura! Hurry up!" Pidge yelled as she slashed her whip at the sirens that decided to come and play. Well, now I get to impress the ladies~!

I shot the rifle as fast as I could and reloaded it just as fast! This is the most I had ever had something to do! Something other than train with that little she-demon!

Just as I was about to celebrate this, I felt sharp claws being torn into my shoulders! I knew instantly it was a Dragon! But they had never tried to take one of us before!

"AAHH!" I cried out in pain as I tired to shoot it, though with a swift of it's tail, I was disarmed. 

"Lance!" Everyone called to me as I was thrown of the ship and onto another dragons back! Dude, I'm no good in the air!

I tried to jump or roll off of the thing, but another dragon would come and pick me up! That was when I noticed that the more that I struggled, the higher we went! 

After I came to that conclusion, I stopped trying to get away. They can just get me anyway, also even if I fell safely into the water, I would be eaten/seduced by the damn sires! 

Yes, they are gorgeous girls, but I don't roll with that.

Some how, I feel asleep on one of the dragons... Because I don't remember anything really after I closed my eyes... 

Might turn this into a book.... Maybe I will.... Maybe later... ~S.R
