Crystal's POV
"We should be close enough to get a good scan, but far enough away to avoid being noticed." Allura said. Everyone was gathered on the bridge. Apparently, Pidge had found a secret place in Sendak's memories. 'I really need to figure out a way to see displays.' I mentally noted to myself.
"There it is." Shiro said.
"It appears the gravitation between the two planets warps the electron emission spectrum enough to keep the planet off the deep space scanners." Coran added typing away on a computer.
"So, you can only see it if you really know where to look." Pidge said.
"This place must handle shipments from all over the Galra Empire." Shiro said.
"If this is some big airport where shipments come and go, why is it hidden?" I asked.
"There must be more to this than we're seeing."
"Then, we'd better go down to take a look. We'll need to enter here: the central control building." Allura said.
"I'm sorry, Princess, did you say "we"?" Keith asked.
"I'm going with you. I've traveled through the Galra transportation hubs many times with my father before the war began. I know more about them than any of you."
"Princess, I'd rather you stay here." Coran said.
"I'm a part of this fight against Zarkon as much as anyone. I'm going. Does anyone have a problem with that?" Allura asked, giving everyone a sort of death glare.
"Uh..." to add to the awkwardness, Lance started whistling.
"Fine. Suit up." Shiro shrugged. Coran let out a small scream and everyone gave him an odd look, myself included. "We'll go in low, fast, and hopefully undetected. Coming around the dark side of the nearest planet should keep them from getting a visual on us. Thanks to Pidge's modifications to the Green Lion, we'll have 30 seconds of cloaking."
"I can flood their short-range sensors with a radiation burst. That should buy you a minute or so, while they assume it's cosmic interference. But, after that, it's up to you to be out of sight." Coran said. Pretty soon, we had successfully infiltrated the supply base. We were able to make it to the door to the control room where I stopped them.
"Wait." I said. Then turned my vision toward the room. Once I got the information I returned to the team. "Okay, there is a single Galra guard who's back is turned away from the door. There are also two sentries who are on the lower layer.
"Thanks." Shiro said. He then went inside and made quick work or the guard and sentries. "How's it look out there?"
"All clear." Keith said.
"This shouldn't take too long." Hunk said. Pidge then pulled out her laptop and hooked it up to the central computer.
"We'll have all the information we need in a few minutes." Pidge said. "Hunk and I have made some improvements since the last time I tried to download Galra info. We should get a nice, clean translation immediately. Hunk had a great idea about how to do it."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, do you guys remember when we studied algorithms at the Garrison, and Mr. York told us that joke about the ghost learning symbolic logic and innumerably infinite sets?" Hunk said. I looked at Hunk with a confused face.
"Boring!" Lance called out.
"Right, yeah, totally, it was boring. Anyway, the joke goes..." Hunk started, but was cut off by Keith.
"Hey, guys, sorry to interrupt, but I think we got company. Think we should get out of here?"
"We just need a few more seconds." Pidge said.
