My P.O.V
The castle/ship was flying towards the Balmera, I stood next to Pidge and the others.

"We'll be arriving at the Balmera soon. Liberating these Balmerans from Zarkon's grasp will not be easy." Allura warned.

"So, what's the plan? We go in there and just...pow, pow, pow!" Lance shouted, making shooting gestures with his hands then placing a hand on his hips. "And free the prisoners?"

"What was that noise?" Keith asked, raising an eyebrow and staring at Lance oddly.

"Laser guns." Lance said, smirking at Keith.

"No, Lance, I think you mean..." Hunk said, getting down on his knees and imitates lasers firing. "Pow!"

"That sounds like fireworks." I said, looking at the three guys totally confused.

"Technically, they're more like...ba-choo, ba-choo, ba-choo!" Pidge stated, making shooting motions with two hands.

Allura and I look at Pidge when she did her laser guns...impression...

"Okay, enough with the bad sound effects." Shiro demanded. (Okay, Space Dad) "Besides, it's more like... blam, blam, blam!" Shiro yelled, getting on one knee and making a shooting motion with two hands.

"What?" Keith said, holding his arms out.
"You're crazy." Pidge commented.
"No way." Lance said with his arms crossed.
"Wrong." Hunk yelled with his hands on his hips.

"Why are you guys even talking about this?" I asked, irritated and confused.

"Paladins, focus." Allura scowled, closing her eyes in annoyance.

"Besides, we can't just shoot at the Galra." Hunk informed, his eyebrows creased in worry.
"This Balmera, it's, like, alive. And from what we've seen, it doesn't look very good."

We all looked at a holographic screen of the Balmera in some sort of heat vision, only the middle red and with an outline of yellow, then green and blue.

"Yes, it's an atrocity what the Galra have been doing to this grand beast." Coran explained then, the holographic screen showing the Balmera's surface, with a bunch of Galra stations around. "Stealing its crystals, its very life force, without ever performing the energy rejuvenation ceremonies to heal it."

"After seeing Shay's people enslaved, it made me realize how bad Zarkon really is." Hunk confessed, looking at the Balmera in determination. "And we're the only ones who can stop him."

"Okay, so we can't go into the tunnels guns blazing." Shiro shortened Hunk's explanation. "Plan B. We figure out how to draw the Galra up to the surface and battle them out there." Shiro turned around facing me, Allura, and the four paladins.

"Wait, I know. If we attack all of this big mining stuff on the surface, the Galra troops will have to come out to defend it." Hunk explained with a better plan. "Then we beat them up, head down to the tunnels, Voltron saves the day."

"But how will we know how many are left in the tunnels?" Keith asked, his arms crossed and eyebrows furrowed.

"We can track the Galra and the Balmerans using Biothermal Life Indicator Point Technology." Allura explained, showing a holographic picture/screen of a small pod-egg that appeared in front of her.

"Oh, BLIP tech!" Pidge and I exclaimed, fixing our glasses and making Allura look at us. "It's an acronym." We replied.

"One of you will need to fly around the Balmera and drop sensors into the shafts on each side." Allura explained, ignoring mine and Pidge's acronym and the holographic screen going towards the 'windows' and expanding to the side of the Balmera. "Then we'll be able to see where the Galra and the Balmerans are. There are already sensors built into your suits."
