"...Red Lion. Blue Lion. Report."

Keith groaned, unable to hear anything from the blast except ringing noises. His eyes slowly opened and he noticed Lance standing beside him, saying something he couldn't hear. He felt his body shaken. As the ringing dispersed, Lance's voice became clearer.

"Amigo!" He shouted. "Yo, amigo! You okay?"

"Y-Yeah." Keith replied, still dazed.

Lance grabbed Keith, lifting him up while holding him. The whole lobby was covered in dust and smoke, making vision hard to see. The two coughed out dust as they struggle to find their way out, stepping on cracked glass and tiles. Their clothes were dusty and grazed from shards of glass and splattered with blood. Keith looked around and turned to the empty bar.

"Where's Mohammed?" Keith asked.

"Gone." Lance responded.

They barely heard the call from outside due to the alarm. As the voice became louder, a silhouette formed from the smoke before someone ran through it. She was almost about to open fire as if they were the surviving terrorists. Eventually, her face changed from fear to relief.

"RED, BLUE!" Pidge called.

"Yo Green! We're good!" Lance replied.

Pidge lowered her rifle and went up to the boys.

"You two alright?" Pidge asked.

"Yeah," Keith replied. "We're good. Where's Hunk?"

"Outside, getting the van ready. We need to go. Cops will be coming over here soon."

Lance handed Keith to Pidge and turned away as she carried Keith. He glanced directly at the bar where their targets were before silently cursing. Lance ran out of the destroyed hotel and got to the van. Hunk, who was in the driver seat, started the engine and drove the team away from the hotel.

"Green Lion to Zero," Pidge said. "Red and Blue Lion are alive and active and all Lions are returning to safe house, over."

"Copy, Green Lion," Allura replied from the radio. "Status on Mohammed?"

"Blue Lion to Zero, target got away when the bombing started." Lance answered.

There was a pause before Allura came back.

"Understood. Return to the safe house. We'll try to figure out what to do, over."

"Copy Zero. Green Lion out." Pidge replied.

The van sped to the streets, passing a convoy of squad cars, blaring sirens.

Safe House

Shiro walked into a bathroom and turned the water on. He splashed some cold water at his face. Shortly, he turned off the water and looked up at his reflection. He still wondered why he agreed to go back to Voltron. The deaths of those close to him still traumatised him. He almost lost two operators, which could've ended up like his brother and his team.

After wiping his face with a towel, he heard a knock from the door. Takashi left the bathroom and went up to the front door, pulling out his pistol just in case. He looked through the peephole. It was Allura, standing in front of the door, waiting for an answer. Shiro put his pistol away and opened the door.

"Hey." He greeted.

"Hey." Allura replied.

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah, you?"

Allura sighed and went in. As Shiro closed the door, he noticed Allura's glum expression, like she was chewed out.
