Space Ghosts

Chapter 5

Dannys POV

A few days ago, I was ruling the ghost zone and getting on peoples nerves. Now there's a total fruit loop on the loose, and Im working with Voltron and the Galra prince.

Lotor had called a meeting a few minutes ago to discuss the recent Galra attacks. Apparently, the empire was in chaos and there would be more infight due to the lack of an authority leader. Luckily, the Kral Zera was coming up. The free-for-all fight to light the fire would determine the next Galra leader and the fighting would hopefully decrease.

It seems that those lessons about the Galra really did come in handy Dad... I never have been away from him for this long. Well, I dont think I have even left the ghost zone except for a select few times throughout my twenty-one years of existence

~flashback~

I cant believe Im going to get to hang out with the Paladins of Voltron! This is one of the best days of my life!

After we agreed to join the Voltron Alliance, it was decided that I would join the Paladins while the council protected the Ghost Zone. This way I could find Dan and help Voltron without leaving my planet defenseless.

I looked at my dad to see if he was as happy as I was. He looked nervous, which has never been a good thing with the master of time.

I decided to approach him in private to ask him about this.

"Dad, are you okay? You dont seem like yourself."

"Im worried about you, the last time he attacked it took a toll on you. And I especially dont like the fact that you are going alone. Who knows what could happen to you out there?! I wont be there to keep an eye on you or...I just dont want to lose you." He said solemnly.

"Dad I am going to be fine. Nothing can stop me! So, dont worry so much alright?"

"You should be careful, its a dangerous world out there!"

"Will it make you feel better if I take Cujo?"

"Maybe. You are my favorite child, I dont want anything to happen to you!"

"I'm your only child, I win by default."

He chuckled. "Just...please be careful, Daniel." He stopped as if considering something, but said nothing more.

"I will dad! Dont worry about me and protect the Ghost Zone while Im gone!"

I was about to start walking away when he grabbed my wrist.

"Dad-?"

He quickly pulled me into a tight hug. This will be the first time I'll be separated from him for a while. So, I hugged him as tightly as frostbite. I dont know when I'll be able to see him again. I just hope it won't be too long.

~end flashback~

I hope he's doing okay! Maybe later I can call him and see how everyone is doing. And I'm glad the Paladins were ok with me bringing Cujo, they didnt seem to mind at all since they believe he is just a small puppy. I can't wait to see their reaction when they see his true form. It will be priceless-

"Daniel! Are you paying attention?" Lotors voice rang clearly through the air and I jumped at the sudden noise. I noticed he now had an image of what I could assume was an important Galran figure. Everyone was looking at me oddly, and I blushed a bright green.

"What? I mean, of course, Im paying attention! This is obviously very important, and I definitely need to know what is going on!" I lied and tried to hide the blush, hoping he wouldn't call my bluff. Unfortunately, he did.
