3rd Person POV-

"Fire!" Allure yelled into the phone. Great, just great.

"What happened Allura?" Shiro asked, worried for his brother. She hadn't said anything when he first arrived, but once he stepped inside, she searched him for his phone and called Keith. He noticed Lotor also look worried, which meant she's been acting like this for a while.

   "I have to tell you about something. I am... a descendant of the great leader Alfor." Everyone froze. They've all heard the legend of the Castle of Lions, but always assumed they were just that, a legend. But they knew she wouldn't lie about something like this.

"Allura, are you sure?" Shiro said. Lotor looked panicked, and kept looking at anywhere but her.

"Yes, Allura, are you positive? And how far is your relation towards him? How many generations down?" Lotor asked, accent also hinting his words.

"Well, Alfor was.... my father," she said. Confusion was evident in all their faces. And she elaborated. "When I was a young child, he knew the battle was coming to a close, and our side was going to be executed. So, as a last request from the wind and water users, they froze me. It didn't hurt, or at least, I don't remember it hurting. It was just as if I were alive. And they sent me to a secure location, and put a curse on it that only the most adventurous family would find me and raise me into a warrior. And they did. Coran found me. He went on a skiing trip and found me, to be exact. Raised me as a daughter, and I loved him. Then, on my eighteen birthday, he was killed by the other side, the Galra, because they sensed I was alive, and at full power."

   "See, what makes the leader a leader is the power they're granted. They can sense when the orbs are in use, and who it belongs too. They can also tell who the next worthy person the powers will go to. I sensed that in your brother, Keith. And I knew he was going to control the fire element. But why I was drawn close to you was a mystery to myself. That is, until now," Allura said. She went up to him, and hit her hand on his shoulder. Shiro has to suppress a blush, but Allura looked serious, but also confident.

   "You are the trainer. But the special thing about you is, you know the importance of practice. You'll be in charge of making sure the team is well equipped to battle the Galra when the time is right. And you'll do it with a special ring. I don't have it on me, but I know where it is. At least, where it should be. The Castle of Lions. And we'll be going there soon. As soon as we can get all the team members together."

As she said this, there was a knock at the door. Allura let out a small gasp.

"That's one of them now!" She said, running towards the door. As she opened it, she was taken aback by the person at the door.

"Wait, Hunk, you?! But, but, how?" Everyone in the room seemed startled by the reveal of Hunk, considering he was suppose to be one of the famous Paladins, which was what the elementalists were named.

   "Wait, what do you mean by all that? Also, hi," Hunk told them.

   "Hunk, by any chance have you come into contact with a glowing green, blue, red or yellow orb?" Shiro asked. Allura looked at Hunk, nervously waiting for his answer.

   "Y-yeah, a yellow one. How do you know?" Hunk said. Allura gasped.

   "Hunk, I think you should sit down," Lotor said. "We've got something to tell you."

Explanations again

   "Wait, so why did you never sense Hunk as one of the Paladins, but knew about Keith right away?" Lotor asked.

   "I was also startled by that realization, until I remembered I was friends with him way before any of my abilities came out. The weird sensation I got around him I just assumed was part of my power. When you're with the elements, you get this feeling. With Keith, it just seemed to always be warm around him. With Hunk, it just felt cold. Windy. But I shrugged it off. Now I realized how important you are. More than I already thought, of course," Allura said.

   "Wait, Keith can control fire?! That's appropriate since both fire and Keith scare me. But how do we find the other two paladins?" Hunk asked.

   "Well, once they use their power, I will be able to sense where they are. That's another handy trick I found out I could do. As long as we get a map. I know the other orbs have been claimed becau-" and Allura went rugged.

   "Get a map!" Lotor ordered, since he realized she was probably sensing one of the Paladins now. As Shiro got the map, she pointed to a landmass a bit south of Florida. Cuba. Then she pointed to Texas, over Houston. They were there now. And finally her finger landed on Latin America, on top of the Amazon Rainforest. This was going be one hell of a trip.

   Right before the pointing started, Lance had no idea what to think when he woke up, thinking it was all a dream. But at the same time, it felt so real to him. He tried continuing as if nothing happened, keeping the same routine as yesterday. But when it came time to go back to the beach he hesitated. He never hesitated when t came to the beach.

Reluctantly, he went into the water, and it felt nice. As he finally went in far enough where the water was up to his neck, he made a decision. He held his breath, and submerged his head under the water. He held it until he couldn't hold it any longer. He let go and....

He was fine. Lance Motherfucking McLane was fine, and in more than just looks. And that's when a realization hit him. He could breath underwater. He didn't know what to do.

And going south of the equator, we've got Pidge. And she's freaking out. Didn't take her long to figure out she could control.... stuff. More importantly, nature.

   She could make plants grow, move dirt around, bend metal. The possibilities were endless. But she knew she needed to tell someone. So she went to the person she trusted the most: Matt.

And our last Paladin, Keith, had no idea what to do. He wanted to talk to Shiro, but he knew if he told him he'd worry. So he did what any logical person who thought something was wrong with them did: google their symptoms. Little did Keith know, the Galra had tracking devices and programs on all computers, and Keith made a ding that would get him and his future team go on the run.

This kinda sucks. But I'm trying.
