"OH NO" We all screamed again but louder as we turned around to see something strange enter the atmosphere
"What is that?" Lance and Hunk said in unison
"Could it be?" Pidge questioned
"Let's go and check it out." I said as I swiftly jumped into a nearby tree and climbed down, Lance, Hunk and Pidge all staring in disbelieve "C'mon!" I said enthusiastically
"How The... What..." I heard Pidge say as Lance jumped into the tree and climbed down almost falling.
"Here goes nothing." Hunk said as he jumped, missing the tree but landed on Lance who was squished on the ground below. "OWWWWWWWWW!" Lance Screamed
"OMG, LANCE ARE YOU OK?" I scream
"Aww is Y/N actually worried for little old Lancey?" Hunk said sheepishly as he got off Lance and helped him up.
"Of Course, He's my best friend," I responded with a smirk as Pidge jumped into the tree with a high pitched squeal.
"Maybe More?" Lance asked as Hunk helped Pidge down the tree
"Maybe," I said as Lance blushed a cute tint of pastel pink
We searched the skies for the unknown object we saw before, "THERE IT IS!" Pidge yelled as we ran after it. The ship landed not far to the East and the Earth shook a little as it did. We saw the small looking ship and all four of us decided to take a look, as Lance was about to open the door I heard footsteps so I signalled Pidge and Hunk to hide in a nearby bush, I tried to signal Lance but he was so curious to open the door. I swiftly tackled Lance into a nearby bush as the door swung open and guards ran to the aircraft that had fallen.
I tried to get up when I realised how I landed on Lance, I landed on top of him with our faces only centimetres apart, my hands on his chest and his hands on my waist. "Lance, can I get up now?" I asked as Lance's grip on my waist got tighter. I kept struggling until Pidge told Lance and I to look in the compound, I quickly but gently got up whilst helping Lance up in the process.
"Oh My Gosh!" I heard Pidge say pointing at a body on a table, he was strapped down. After seeing him strapped down Pidge and I decided to get him out, we cut the straps that connected him to the table, when I just cut the last strap I heard him groan as he started to get up.
"OMG, THAT GUY'S MY HERO!" Lance exclaimed
"Who's your hero?" I questioned
"Haven't you heard of Takashi Shirogane, the guy who piloted the ship for the Kerberos Mission with Sam and Matt Holt?" he said
"SHIRO!" Pidge screamed as someone very familiar kicked the door open. He had black hair, shimmering purple eyes and wore a red jacket.
"KEITH?" I yell as he looked at me and ran for a hug. We hugged for what seemed like forever.
"OH NO NO NO NO NO!" I heard Lance angrily yell to Keith as he let me go.
"Y/N is that really you? How long has it been? five years?" Keith asked as he rubbed the back of his neck
"Okay." I heard Pidge say sadly to the man that she called Shiro
We all focus our attention back to Pidge as Keith ran to the man on the table.
"SHIRO!" He screamed
"Keith?" He replied as he picked him up and leaned him on his shoulder.
"NO, NO, NO, NO." Lance interrupted "I'm saving Shiro."
"And you are?" Keith asked confused
"The names Lance, We were in the same class at the Garrison." Keith still looked confused "It was always Lance and Keith neck and neck."
"Oh, you're the Cargo pilot." He replied
"Fighter Class now thanks to you dropping out," Lance responded as I glared at him to shut up. I knew the true reason why Keith got kicked out, and no one else. "Oh, and Y/N's best friend!" he just had to include that.
"Well congratulations," Keith said annoyed
"Hey, sorry to cut your moment short but I think people are coming," I say as I signal everyone to get out. Everyone runs out while Keith helps the exhausted Shiro into his bike. We all get on.
"Is this gonna hold?" I question
"No, but it has to," Keith said as he started the engine and started to drive. The Garrison vehicles only 100's of metres behind of us. "Hurry!" I shouted as we started to go faster, we drove up a mountain everyone worried about the vehicles that followed until Lance said,
"Keith Buddy, I know we don't get along but don't drag Pidge, Shiro, Hunk and Y/N into it, Don't drive off this cliff." Lance Pleaded as Keith did exactly want Lance didn't want him to do.
"Shut up and trust me!" Keith replied as we drove off the Cliff, all of us screaming our lungs off, well all of us except Shiro and Keith. I looked behind us seeing that the vehicles chasing us had stopped.

We stayed at Keith's old wooden 'cabin' for the rest of the night. Everyone talked until Shiro woke up and the attention was on him. Him and Keith were talking outside while I was stuck with Lover Boy Lance, The Tech Whiz Pidge and the Master Chef Hunk.
"Hey Y/N, How do you know Keith?" Lance asked
"Oh, we grew up together," I replied not telling the full story
We kept talking until Keith and Shiro walked inside and towards a sheet that was dropped over something. He pulled the sheet off to reveal what one would call and Investigation board that you would see in CSI shows.
"What's this?" I asked
"I can't explain it really. After I got booted from the Garrison, I was just lost and found myself drawn to this place. It's like some energy was telling me to search." He said
"For what?" Shiro asked
"Well, I didn't really know at the time. Until I stumbled across this area." He paused and showed us some of the pictures "Its an outcropping of giant boulders with caves covered in ancient markings. Each tells us a different story about a 'blue lion'. But they all share clues about an event, some arrival happening last night and then you showed up."
"I should thank you all for getting me out," Shiro said while turning to us
He walked up to Lance first. "Lance, Right?" he asked as he held his hand out for Lance, it took him a couple of seconds but he took it and shook his hand. He then headed to me.
"And you are?" He asked and held out his hand for me
"Oh, I'm Y/N," I said with a smile as I shook his hand
"Oh, Your Y/N, Keith's told me a lot about you." He smiled as I looked at Keith.
"Oh, Has he?" I glared at him
Shiro chuckled and headed towards Pidge and Hunk, Hunk looked terrified.
"The nervous guy is Hunk, I'm Pidge." She said "Did anyone else from you crew make it out? She asked
"I'm not sure, I remember the mission and being captured. The rest is just bits and pieces--" He replied before he was cut off by Hunk.
"The Aliens, Where are they now?" He asked
"I can't really put it together, I remember the word Voltron. Its some kind of weapon that they're looking for but I don't know why." He replied, "Whatever it is, we need to find it before they do."
☼
After using a machine that Pidge and Hunk made, we were able to locate where the 'energy' was most concentrated. It leads us to a cave with the markings that Keith was talking about. We all touched the markings, I could tell they were at least thousands of years old. It was all good until Lance touched the carvings and the floor beneath us crumbled away and we were sent plummeting into a shallow pool of water.
"Everyone alright?" I ask as I turn around to see a large blue mechanical lion in front of us. "Now I remember!" I say
"Remember what?" Pidge asked
"I learnt it in one of the extension classes at the Garrison, this lion is one out of the Six lions needed to make Voltron!"
"Voltron?" Keith asked
"It's said to be a legendary defender of the universe!" I replied
"Oooooooooooo!" Lance enthusiastically squealed as he got up and attempted to touch the lion that shadowed any light from behind.
"Don't" Keith said as a pastel-like blue force field encased the Lion
"You can't tell me what to do!" Lance shouted as he touched the forcefield...
