Taken (Voltron Fanfic)

The Attempt

A while has passed and the team has figured out a good way to save Pidge and Shiro. All that's left is to execute the plan. Allura takes her place on the bridge and breathes deeply. Two very important people's lives are at stake. 

"Everyone, to your lions!" she calls.

Hunk, Lance, and Keith are in their hangars and jump into their lions as the Princess gives the command. (Matt goes with Lance) Coran is on the bridge with Allura. 

"All set," he says, giving a thumbs up. 

"Alright," she sighs, looking at the Galra tracker Pidge had installed. "Everyone ready?" Allura asks. 

"Let's do this," comes Matt's reply through Lance's comm. 

The Castle of Lions powers up before Allura opens a wormhole and they enter it. In less than a minute, they are facing a fleet of Galra fighters and the mother ship. Nobody hesitates, and before the Galra can even react, Hunk has flown out to distract them and Allura is running to Blue's hangar in order to enter her lion. Keith, Matt, and Lance depart stealthily and get to the mother ship as fast as they can. Coran activates the attacking probes and begins to charge.

Keith and Lance land their lions on the ship and cut into the weak link with Keith's bayard. As they use their jet packs to fly through the hole and into a small hallway, Keith talks the plan over to Lance for the third time. 

"I know exactly what I'm doing. I'm not an idiot, Keith. Jeez," Lance mutters. 

"Mmm, that's debatable," Keith replies. Lance recoils in anger and disgust. 

"How DARE-" he begins, but Matt cuts in before any thing else is said.

"Stop it, both of you! We have a mission. Let's make sure we succeed. If we don't, people could, and will, die! So shut the quiznak up and get it together!" Matt flies to the ground and walks down the hall swiftly, leaving a shocked Keith and a hurt Lance. The two glare at each other one last time before following.

Meanwhile, Pidge is being dragged down a hallway towards an interrogation room.  When she is taken inside, she sees Shiro already strapped to the metal chair and almost cries when her eyes land on the electric table that they soon cuff her to. 

Shiro looks exhausted, but determined. The Galra general is standing in between the two, and his grin is as ugly as ever. 

"Glad you could both join me again. Let's see if you are finally ready to answer some questions," he sneers. 

Shiro's only reply is, "You will not hurt her. You will hurt me  if I decide not to answer your questions." The general glares at him. 

"You do not order me on this ship. We know your weakness, the worst one of all; valuing the lives of others. Just remember, your friend is in worse condition than before. Answer our questions if you don't want to add to her misery." He smirks at the Green Paladin.

"Alright, let's get on with this. We hear you have a high technology base on Earth. Is this true?" the general asks. Shiro nods grimly. 

"What is it called?" 

Shiro pauses before answering, "The Galaxy Garrison." 

"So, where is the weakest point on The Galaxy Garrison?" 

Shiro listens to the question and then acts as if he were deep in thought. 

I can't let them hurt Pidge anymore. I've just gotta stall for as long as possible.
