Cover art by @tricodeku. This is set before the Kerbros mission, and is about Keith and his friends time at the Garriosn, starting on their first day, ending when they find the blue lion. Keith is Shadams son, and is 14, and newly enrolled at the Ga...
Since I had no idea what was happening by that ship, or who would be there, I covered my face with some old bandana I found, and out that weird knife in my pocket. It might come in handy.
I hid the bike behind this big rock formation, and got off. I slowly stepped towards the ship, hiding behind another rock formation. I peeked around the corner and saw a few Garrison officers outside. "But the mission failed. He's supposed to be dead." One said. "Yeah, the whole pilot error thing didn't make sense. But the point is he's alive, surprisingly." The second one said. "Right. How are they gonna tell everyone?" He shrugged "I don't know. They might not."
Without realizing it, I had crept closer and closer to them, trying to hear their conversation. "Hey! Get outta here!" One yelled, starting to run towards me. Well shit. I've been caught. His partner followed him, and I ran at them. I decked one, and tripped the other, causing him to hit his head. I smiled to myself. Yeah, I still got it.
I ran into the ship, avoiding any other people and trying to find the person the guards mentioned. Maybe it was an alien. An alien that knew what happened to Shiro. I found a door, with some weird ass keyboard on it. It had really weird markings, like the ones in the cave. I tried pushing a few buttons, and it beeped.
at this point, you might as well just watch the video or episode.
It opened, and inside I saw three Garrison techs and some guy on a table. "Hey!" One yelled, running towards me. I smirked and put my hands up in a fighting stance. Oh yeah, this was gonna be fun. I decked him and the other two, sending them flying into their equipment. One had fallen in front of me, and I jumped over him, almost falling, and stood next to the guy, pulling down my bandana. I couldn't believe my eyes. I turned his face and "Shiro?" Holy shit Shiro was alive. And had a big scar on his face, and a FUCKING ROBOTIC ARM. How did that happen? Who did this? Wait, how am I gonna tell Adam? I left my phone in the shack. Fuck that, I'll tell him later. I pulled out the knife and cut the ropes holding him on the table. I had him standing when some more people showed up. It was Pidge, Hunk, and ugghh, Lance. "Hey, no, I'm saving Shiro."
Just watch the video, first the top then this one
After jumping the cliff and losing the Garrison, I took them to the shack. There was no way I was taking them home. If someone saw Shiro, they'd probably call the cops, because what the hell was a dead guy doing home?
"Keith, what the hell is this place?" Pidge asked. "I found it, so I guess it's mine now." "Huh, so you're a dropout and a thief? Doesn't surprise me." Lance said. I glared at him, but said nothing. I laid Shiro on the couch, and went to grab a snack. "Yeah, uh so, how you been?" Hunk asked. I shrugged, opening a mini bag of Oreos. "Good. I've been here a lot, riding the bike. How is..." I trailed off, remembering that we didn't talk about it in front of Lance. "He's fine. Adam is fine." Pidge answered. I smiled a bit. "Great." "Okay, but what are we gonna do? Obviously he's not dead, so what now? Take him to the Garrison, or take him to the press?" Lance asked, looking at Shiro. We wait for him to wake up and get him out of those rags. Then we figure out what to do." I said. They nodded silently, and Pidge made herself at home on the floor. She pulled a laptop, phone and a few other weird tech pieces out of her back pack, and started typing away. "what's that?" I asked, leaning over her. She stole one of my Oreos and said "Its some stuff I've been working on. I found this transmission that keeps repeating itself, saying Voltron over and over. It says other stuff too, in some kind of foreign language, but I don't recognize it." Maybe she had the same as the one in the cave and ship. "What's it look like?" I asked. She pushed some buttons and showed me her screen. It was just like the stuff in the cave. "I've seen this before. In a cave around here. I can take you there after Shiro wakes up." Pidge smiled, and Lance glared at me. "No way man! We should be going to the news with him! We found the dead astronaut in an alien ship!" I glared at Lance. "No. Then we'll probably get arrested, or the Garrison will do something to us. We're gonna wait for him to wake up, then go to the cave. What you want doesn't matter right now." "Yeah Lance. Your family is all safe on Earth. If Shiro's alive, maybe Matt and my dad are too! We need to see what these things are." Lance sighed. "Fine. Do you have a bathroom here?" He asked. I shook my head. "Nope. But there's a big dessert out there." I said with a smirk. "No thanks." He said, sitting on the floor.
We waited a few more hours, exchanging small talk and sharing news. Apparently, James was now the top pilot at the Garrison, both in the simulator and grade wise. And Lance had gotten put into fighter class after I got kicked out. They had also gotten rid of the combat classes, cause too many kids were getting hurt.
Shiro started stirring, and I ran over to him. He opened his eyes slowly, groaning a bit. "Keith.. KEITH!" He exclaimed, shooting my and wrapping his arms around me. "I smiled and hugged him tightly. "Shiro.. you're okay." "Shiro!" Pidge exclaimed running over to us. Shiro pulled away from me and hugged her too. "Pidge! Fuck I missed you guys!" "Where my dad and Matt?" she asked, and Shiro looked at her with a sad smile. "I-I don't know the last thing I remember is getting to Kerberos, then this ship appeared. I'm sorry Pidge, I don't know." Her shoulders sagged, and she shook her head. "You don't remember. You don't remember now! you probably will later! I mean, you fell from the sky in an alien ship. you have a scar on your face and a robotic arm!" Shiro face fell. "I what?" He picked up his arm and looked at it oddly. "I-i don't remember getting this. And a scar? Where?" "On the bridge of your nose. Keith do you have a mirror?" Pidge asked. I nodded. "Yeah. I'm gonna go get some clothes for you too." I said, heading towards the bathroom. Yeah, I had told Lance there wasn't one. But it didn't work, so it didn't matter. I had found some clothes there before, and had washed them and brought them back. I handed them to Shiro, along with a water bottle. "There's a bathroom down the hall. You can change there." Shiro nodded and stood. "Hey, you said there wasn't a bathroom!" Lance whined. I rolled my eyes. "It doesn't work. There's no running water."
Shiro didn't come back out, so I went to look for him. It was pretty easy. He was outside, looking at his new arm. "Hey." I said, walking over to him. "Hey." He answered.
