———————————————————————————

You woke up from what you assumed to be a nightmare, due to your shallow breath and your cold sweat.

You look around, but the room you're in is only white. Your vision is still blurry, but you can make out other blobs in the room. One's big and yellow, one's small and green, one's about medium sized and red, another is slightly larger and blue, one is slightly smaller than yellow, but it's black, and the last one is pink.

Wait a minute... these aren't blobs! They're the Paladins! You suddenly remembered going unconscious in the castle, while getting something to eat for the Paladins. You weren't a Paladin, but you were useful enough around the castle. Now you kind of wish it was a nightmare.

You sit up as you regain your sight. The room really is all white, with no windows and no doors. You seem to be the first one up. You stand all the way up and run to the closest Paladin; Keith.

You check his pulse. Thank god, he's alive! You start to shake him gently Incase he's injured. "Keith! Wake up! We got to get out of here!" He didn't budge.

You ran over to Shiro. "Shiro! Shiro, Shiro, come on!" You shake him a little more harshly this time.

"(Y/n)..." you hear someone call your name. You look over your shoulder and see Lance waking up and looking at you. "Lance!" You cried out and ran over to him. "Lance! Are you okay?" You help him up. "Yeah, yeah it's just... where are we?" He asks "I don't know. But this isn't the castle so we have to get out."

You hear groans and you turn around. All the other paladins are waking up. "Guys! Guys, oh my gosh, I'm so glad your okay!" "Okay is an overstatement. Where are we?" Keith asks. "I have no clue." You respond and help him up. "Well, wherever we are, we got to go." Shiro says, after getting up. Everyone is now up and looking around.

Suddenly, the room goes dark, and a hologram of Zarkon appears in the middle of the room. "Hello Paladins." He says "Zarkon.. I should've known.." Allura says. "What do you want?" Shiro asks. "Nothing much, just one of your lives."

"What?!" You all shout simultaneously. "That's right. We're playing a game. There will be 6 rounds. If you win a round, you get to go back to your castle. And whoever loses all 6 rounds will stay here."

The room falls silent. There really isn't another way out.. you thought. "We might have to play his games.." Shiro states sadly. "No! There has to be another way!" Keith yells. "But there's not! Look around, Keith!" Allura yells back. There was another moment of silence.

"Alright," Shiro sadly says. "What are the rounds?" Zarkon gives a sinister grin. "The winners will be one who can defeat a guard with only a sword, one who can leave the biggest bruise with a whip, one who can shoot a fast moving target first, one who can defeat the most guards in 30 ticks, one who can solve a puzzle, and one who can deactivate a bomb before it blows."

You are all silent. Wait... sword champion goes to Keith, stamina goes to Shiro, whip is Allura, puzzle is Hunk, bomb is Pidge, targets are Lance... so that means... he's setting me up to lose! And he knows it too! Tears prick at your eyes at your revelation.

"Once you win a round, you will be sent back to your castle." Zarkon states. You all looked at each other. Tears are freely flowing down Hunk's, Lance's and Allura's faces. Don't they see that I'M set up to lose? "Now then, any questions?" He asks with his devious grin returning. You slowly raised your hand. "Yes, Pet of Voltron?"

"Why don't you take me right now?" You ask, breath shaking from choking back tears. The Paladins looked at you in shock, but you didn't dare meet their gazes out of fear that tears would slip down your cheeks. Guess they didn't know. Everyone stands in silence, and Zarkon gives a knowing smirk at you. Shiro broke the silence. "(Y/n)-"

"No." You responded as tears finally fell from your eyes. You faced your team. "Don't you see it? Zarkon made a round that one of you would be good at, except me. Keith has sword fighting in the bag, Pidge has disabled bombs many times before, Hunk is amazing at puzzles, the team's sharp-shooter can hit any target, Allura already fights with a whip, and you have the most stamina! Where does that leave me?! It leaves me here." You shout. "So, why not take me right now? Huh?" You ask Zarkon, turning to face him again.

He gave you a bone-chilling grin. "I'd thought I'd at least make it seem like a fair fight. But I guess you're smarter than you look, pet."

"But why me? I'm not even important to Voltron!" You ask. He just smirks again. "Because, you may not be important to Voltron, but your important to your 'friends'. They'd come and try to get you back, then I'd take the lions. And you'd be long gone by then."

Silent sobs from Hunk and Allura are all that you could here. I can't risk them. They're to important. You thought. "Take me. Now." You demanded. "As you wish." He responds and closes the hologram.

You pull your team into a group hug as they start to fade to transport back to the castle. "Save the universe. For me. I love you guys. Goodbye." You say, but they can't speak. They only cried and hug back.

A crash is heard behind you, and next thing you know you being are dragged away. The last thing you saw were their crying figures filled with fear, then they faded away. You understood the unspoken words they were saying. We will.

And they did.

You watched it happen from heaven.
