The Dragon Alchemist

Chapter 10

(Name) walked out of the training deck with Lance as they walked to the goo room to get dinner, as they entered they got stares from most of the team, Pidge just looked up from her food then looked back down, not very interested in the new people who entered the room. Hunk walk out from the kitchen side room with two plates in his hand as he walked up to the two of you.

"So what have you guys been up to? We haven't seen you for a while." Hunk asked a little concern in his voice.

(Name) smiled in reply, "I was having a training lesson with Lance, as I will have similar lessons with both you and Pidge."

Pidge's attention now drawn as she gapes but shakes it off and retorts, "I don't need training, I can fight perfectly fine!"

The room now quiet as (Name)'s brain twisted and turned, spun and rewind, flashes of memory's, but her eyes were blank. Shiro, who was sitting at the end of the table picked this fact up, "Pidge." Shiro spoke sternly, like the space dad he is and forever shall be, as he slowly left his seat. His gaze no longer on Pidge but on (Name), made his way over to her as Lance stared from the other side of the table when she started talking, and Hunk who sat during that time as well.

The Paladins stare weirdly at the frozen warrior as their leader slowly approached. Words and phrases echoed throughout her head, similar to Pidge's. 'I know how to fight!' 'I can survive on my own!' 'I don't need your help!' 'Training is for the weak, and I am strong!' 'What do you know?! You're not my real father!!'

By now Shiro gentle set his hand upon her shoulder and was staring into her eyes, concern in his as hers showed back pain and utter regret. In the quietest whisper Shiro's voice was heard in her ears, "It's okay, you're alright."

Her eye regained there color as the emotion in her eyes disappeared and the calm color to them resurfaced. She gave a soft nod to Shiro as she walked around him and looked at Pidge.

"I'm-" Pidge's words were cut off.

"Everyone," she pause as her gaze passed over the Paladins, "Needs training. Even the most powerful thing in this universe."

"Paladins!" Allura's voice echoed the halls over the loud speaker, "Get to your lions! We need Voltron!"

(Name) sat on her bed looking at wall across from it, the wall flipped in on itself and a chamber opened leading downward. She stayed seated as she could hear the noises of the explosion of the ion blast hitting the Castle's barrier. Her instincts telling her to suit up and prepare for a fight, the fight. Flashes of the blasts hitting the planet's surface and tearing up the ground, ran through her head.

Her elbows on her knees as she hunched over, a helmet that matched her trademark armor appeared and she pulled it over her head.

"Lance! Look out!" The higher octave of Pidge's voice filling her ears. Her fists clenched.

"Pidge get him out of there!" Keith yelled. Her fists tightened its grip on the air.

"I can't- ahhh!!" Again, Pidge's voice. She stood abruptly.

"Hunk! What's your status!!" Shiro's voice dominated the link. Her eyes filled with fear, 'They can't fail.'

"I'm under fire!! Where's Pidge and Lance!!?" His worry evident in his voice.

"We can't fight them!! They're both down!!" Keith yelled back as a blast was heard right after he finished. 

She didn't need to hear anymore as green magic surrounded her. Her armor hovered into place and then clung to her body. Her metal arms made a high pithed shriek as the armor  snapped in place. Her helmet closed up around her face with a clear visor that gave her oxygen. Stepping into the downward tunnel, pressure blasted her down and she shot from the castle.

Out of the castle walls (Name) was surround by the green magic as a roar pierced the empty space. The blasts ceased. The gaze of the Galra locked onto her. Canons re-aiming. Yells flamed in her ears.

"(Name) get out of here!!"

"The canon is going to fire!!!"

"Move!!!"

The blast was heard as the pulse of purple light shot in her direction.

One thought raced through her head, 'Purple means Galra.'
