Chapter Twenty-Six

I hated this-I've been crying nonstop this past week and I just can't stop. I'm too sensitive.

If I want to find- get my Dad and Matt then I have to toughen up. I either go without Allura and the rest or with them, but either way I'm going to get them back.

I wiped away my tears from my damp face and sat down at my desk. I still hadn't cleaned my room but at this point I didn't really care, my mind was too preoccupied. I made a small plan on how to infiltrate the Galra base, simple enough to remember.

Sighing, I stood up and made my way to the chamber that held the Paladin armor, some might call it the armory. I took out my green suit and put it on. Before I left to get into Green, I looked longingly at each Paladin armor, desperately wishing they would come along with me.

I wasn't sure why Allura disallowed me to go and get my family, but now her "permission" wasn't necessary. I shook my head after glancing one last time at the Paladin uniforms and snuck aboard the green lion.

'They won't know we're leaving until we move, so wait till I'm ready. We'll have to go quickly.' I told the lion in my head. The lion seemed to growl in response and I made sure everything was ready for our departure. I was so close to getting them back, no one could stop me.

"Pidge?" I heard a voice call from behind me in the lion.

'No one could stop me apart from him.' I sighed, thinking to myself.

"Pidge, where are you going?" I sat down in my lion and got ready to leave.

"I'd hurry out if I were you." I said, ignoring his question.

"Pidge."

"I'm going out, OK." I heard him sigh and begin to leave. I couldn't help but call out his name. "Shiro," I blurted out. I didn't particularly want to call him, nor did I want to tell him where I was going.

He look at me with a glow in his eyes, those beautiful eyes. "I'm going to get my Dad, my brother too. If they're in the base of course."

"Why wouldn't you tell me? And why are you going on your own, it's not safe." I chuckled at his comment.

"I'm not safe. Allura was frightened of me, Keith is hesitant to come near me, Hunk won't work with me and Lance refuses to even look at me." I looked to the ground. "I know you all think I'm a monster. If I get caught on the Galra ship then I'm sure you'll all be safer. I don't want to get in the way."

"Pidge, I don't think that they see you as a monster. Sure, you may have surprised them a lot but they won't hate you. It seems impossible to hate you." He smiled sadly.

"Please, Shiro just go. You can't stop me from leaving so just leave."

"Who said I wanted to stop you?" He smirked.
