Shiro stood before the doors that the black lion was behind. Behind him were the others, their respective lions behind them. Allura stood between Shiro and the others. Everyone stared at the door in anticipation for what came next. The four lions roared and the doors opened to reveal a blinding light.

Shiro knew he had to do this, he was the most qualified leader they had. This didn't stop feelings of  guilt, sadness and fear to reach him. He felt guilty for leading his friends into those woods that day. Sure it wasn't his idea, but they could've gone to the park and then maybe they wouldn't have lost a dear friend. He felt sad because he didn't know anything of what happened to his family. He also felt sad because his friend, long gone, couldn't be there, he would've loved this all. He was also afraid, afraid that doing this would cause him to lose more people he cared about.

However, a feeling of sympathy flew through him as he ventured to the other side of the door. He felt that if they didn't do this other people would lose those they cared about. He felt that with this he could protect those he cared about better this way. He knew he had to make the decision. So he stepped forward and became the black lion's pilot.
