Lance's watch beeped as the digits that previously said '17:59' changed.

It was now six o'clock on Sunday evening. He took a deep breath, Pidge reached out and grabbed his hand in nervousness and he smiled slightly before walking through the back entrance that Coran had left open for them.

The school was scary at night with only the dim backup lights to lead them through the abnormally silent hallways.

The two teenagers eventually reached Coran's classroom. Lance moved his knuckles up to the door and was about to knock when a voice cut him off.

"Come in you two." Coran's voice said.

Lance glanced at Pidge, who gulped but nodded softly. He reached for the door handle and turned it, walking in silently with Pidge still holding his hand until he was standing in front of Coran's desk.

They didn't dare look at the archangel in front of them, for they could feel the dark aura of seething rage that was rolling off of him already from where they were standing.

"Upon investigation of their activities since being sent to earth exactly one month ago, it has been uncovered that Prince Akira McClain has broken nine of ten rules of which he had signed a contract promising not to break.
It has also been uncovered that Katie Holt has broken three of ten rules of which she had signed a contract promising not to break. The angels are to present themselves before the official Voltron court with their supervisor where they will be trialed and punished based on the outcome. Before this they will be taken to the room of reflection where they will spend their time reflecting on the sins that they have commited. This will happen in exactly twenty four hours of this message being read."

Lance saw Coran put the letter he had been reading on the desk from his peripheral vision.

"Do you have any idea the uproar that you have caused up in heaven?" The ginger male asked.

Pidge looked down guiltily while Lance finally mustered up enough courage to look at Coran.

"We can imagine..." He said, his voice sounding way more stronger than he felt.

Coran scoffed and shook his head.

"Akira, to break one rule is bad enough. You've broken nine! Nine quiznacking rules!"

Lance bowed his head as he was scolded but he felt Pidge squeeze his hand a little in reassurance.

"And Katie, as much as I hate to say it, I would expect this from Akira but you!? What in Voltron's name were you thinking?"

Pidge scowled at her feet and said nothing. Lance noticed that she had become a lot more timid since Hunk had confessed, she was much more touchy feely, almost always hanging onto Lance for comfort. He didn't mind. She was like his little sister, he would protect her along with Keith until the day he died.

Coran sighed at the lack of an answer and leaned back in his chair, rubbing his eyes.

"Akira you're to leave now. Katie I wish to speak with you alone." He mumbled.

Lance turned to look at Pidge who looked a little more nervous. She met his gaze and they had a silent conversation, Pidge telling Lance that she would be fine and that he should do as he was told.
