Under the Radar (Lance x Reader) -Spy AU

Chapter 12

Sorry if this chapter doesn't make much sense. Yesterday was my aunt's birthday and I got a little tipsy LOL

"Today we will be splitting up and investigating the crime scene and following after our suspect." Allura said the next morning. Lance yawned. "Yeah, but did you have to have us get up at the crack of dawn?" Lance muttered. Keith elbowed his side. "Ow!" he cried.

"Shut up and listen." Keith snapped. He too seemed exhausted. Lance stuck his tongue out at him. (Y/N) was sitting on the old, green couch in the bunker with her eyes closing and opening. It took all in her power to not fall to her side and take a well needed nap.

"We need all hands on deck for this one. This grand theft assignment has turned to murder. So, starting today, you two don't have to be undercover anymore." Shiro announced. (Y/N) felt an inexplicable pang in her heart, but why? She looked over at Lance, who looked just as sullen.

"Of course, you should still use your cover names if you encounter someone you met before to keep up the charade, but it's not necessary to introduce yourselves as your covers anymore." Shiro explained. "In fact, if you don't, the local police might see you guys as civilians and then that would be a whole mess we have to deal with."

(Y/N) felt a bit better.

"The plan is to find any decisive evidence on who killed Roger Bourne and maybe make some arrests along the way." Coran explained. "We need to split up so that we can cover more ground." One person will go with me and two people will go with Allura."

"I'm planning on going to Mr. Bourne's estate, while Coran is going to go to the nightclub where we saw our suspect, Lotor go and question everyone we can. We've already obtained a search warrant."

Keith's eyebrows furrowed. "Wow. Already?" he asked. Lance looked as if he was about to say something, but then shut his mouth quickly. I wonder what he was about to say... (Y/N) thought. From the look on his face, it seemed important.

"Well, yes! I've managed to obtain that search warrant fast because of my connections." She explained. Connections? What connections? (Y/N) wondered. Before she could ask, Allura continued.

"Today's goal is to find anything pertaining to anything resembling Voltron, and to find out anything about Mr. Bourne's murder." She said. "We will come back here and conference in Shiro when we finish for the day."

Shiro nodded. "Now, listen. This is very important. Please make sure that Allura and Coran are the ones actually arresting any suspects, since they have jurisdiction here."

Allura nodded. "I'm doing my best to request joint jurisdiction, but it may not come in time. This is a fast, high-profile case that is time sensitive, so we need to solve this thing quickly, just in case someone actually already stole this Voltron thing."

"Understood, sir." Keith said. "Good. Shiro over and out." The video feed disappeared from the wall. Allura smiled. "So, Keith and (Y/N) will come with me and Lance..." her voice dropped in enthusiasm slightly. "...will be with Coran, then."

(Y/N) looked at Lance, who had a sour look on his face. She wondered what this strange, and almost sudden negative dynamic was. Was he...sneaking off to be with Allura and something went awry? She started to get angry.

Lance turned to her and smiled. "Don't try to miss me too much, Mama." He said. (Y/N) looked away and blushed.

Keith, however, knew what Allura was up to. He blushed as he thought of the advice that she had given him about (Y/N). She paired them with her totally on purpose.

"Alright. Let's get going."

The three look Carmine to the other side of the city while Coran and Lance walked, since they only had one available car. The three walked into Mr. Bourne's estate, where crime tape was still hanging about.
