lance and his alphas powers AU

Chapter 8

This is going to be a sadder vibe of chapter but it will focus more on everyone upping their fighting game and powers so I hope you enjoy. Also I'm mad at myself for making Allura ignore Lance after being protective of him. Now on with the story. 

Allura POV (A few hours before the previous chapter)

I had just woken up everyone and made breakfast, I feel like I am missing something but I just push that thought aside. As all of the paladins come in I see that they seem more on edge than usual and I wonder what's wrong. "Why are you all so tense paladins, just relax before we train have some space circles." They thank me and eat talking among themselves about what training could be. "We are also going to be landing on a nearby planet as well to search for something special. It will be a very exciting experience for you paladins!" 

This seems to peak their interests and they finish their breakfast quickly and practically drag me towards the training deck so they can get started faster and be able to finish their training earlier so that they could go and explore. Everyone was training harder than before and it made me super proud. They have all come a long way with their powers and it has helped us win multiple fights against the Galra, and soon it will help me gather information on something special I have found out about from father. 

Soon after finishing we land the castle of lions on the planet and begin looking around. They all seem happy following me and searching for something they know nothing about so we continue to look around when we finally find a caveoff to the side that I almost missed had it not been for the breeze I felt and the absolute power that seemed to roll out of the cave. I lead them all their and we went inside using our bayards for a light source. I followed the power as it lead us deeper and deeper into the cave. We hear the sound of running water and see light at the end of the tunnel that we are walking down and when we walk through the opening at the end of the tunnel we are met with a beautiful sight. 

A large open area with walls made of large and small crystals, crystal clear water pooling from a large water fall around a center piece of flat ground with the greenest grass I've ever seen and into a lake like space separating us from the center space like a moat protecting  a castle. But the best part about it was what was sitting on the center space. A large white lion shining like a pearl lay before us with a white barrier around it. "We've found it, the white lion. It is said that it was created by an altean goddess and can only be unlocked by the chosen one, and I think I may be the chosen one. I was able to feel it's energy from all the way outside the cave it must have been calling for me." Everyone nodded and we used Pidge's bayard to get across to the other side. 

Being up close to the white lion was unlike anything I had ever felt before. I reached up and touched the barrier expecting it to open up but nothing happened. Then suddenly it's eyes shot open and it sat up looking down on us almost like it was scanning our soul and seeing who we were. It was then that the mouth of the lion opened and a bright light came out and floated in front of everyone's faces before turning into what looked to be a male Altean. "Who might you be, you are Altean yes but you aren't the person I thought you were." I looked up shocked but then composed myself and spoke. "I am Allura, princess of the now destroyed planet of Altea. I came in search of the white lion as I believe I am the chosen one." At the end of my sentence he chuckled. "Sorry, but you are not the chosen one, I am the other half of the chosen one and as you can see I am a male and an Omega a royal one at that. You are the opposite of these seeing as you are female and an Alpha." I was devastated but also angry.  "You mean my brother is the chosen one to fly you! That has to be wrong he's not as strong as me he can't be worthy!" 

author POV 

Alura was now red in the face and it looked like steam would escape her ears any minute now. "Yes your brother is the chosen one, and fun fact the reason you THINK, your brother is weaker than you is because he had no reason to show you how powerful he was." The others silently watched the interaction and were very confused as to who Allura's brother was as she had never talked about him before. "Well if I can't have you, then neither can he.Paladins we are taking the white lion back to the ship until it excepts me as it's paladin, no ifs ands or buts." No one wanted to do it seeing as it wasn't theirs to take and two, forcing the lion to accept someone as their paladin is wrong and they knew Allura would hurt the lion eventually if it didn't comply. So slowly they gave the castle of lions their coordinates and waited until Coran dug through to the cave they were in. Once he was through the other lions came inside the cave and they all helped get the white lion into the castle. Right before they took off they suddenly saw Zarkons main ship approaching their planet as well as a small escape pod which landed right before them. "Guys let'd go fight some Galra." Alura saysas they all get into their Lions and head out for battle.
