Authors Note: I had the sudden inspiration to start writing some one-shots to delve into the history and personalities of our favorite 5 member team. So, this is actually not part of the "world" I've created in my previous and current Fanction, found here at This will be a collection of a look into each team member's history, and flesh out who they are, and what made them the characters they are now. My interpretation of their lives, and what could have happened to shape them to who they are now.
So, character names are different than the ones that have appeared in my other stories. This takes place about 1 year after the arrival of the team to Planet Arus, and each are member is about 17-20 years of age. Allura is 17, and Pidge is about 13.

Princess Allura smiled to herself as she watched as the Galaxy Garrison ship landed beyond the large moat that surrounded the Castle of Lions. Coran stood by her side, as they watched as an entourage emerge from the ship and made their way along the bridge that would bring them to the Castle.
Several of her guards stood at attention as the entourage came closer, and Coran stepped forward ready to greet the awaiting guests.
"Admiral Benson," Coran announced as the man from the ship approahced.
"Magistrate Coran," the admiral stated as he then came to kneel on one knee, greeting both he and the princess. "Its a pleasure to finally able to visit Arus; I wish I could have made a trip much sooner than this, and for leisurely reasons."
Princess Allura smiled. She had become fond of the Admiral, through their many communications with the Galaxy Garison on Earth, as he had fought tooth and nail to make sure Arus was not totally forgotten and the contributions that her planet and her people have offered to the Galaxy Alliance. She stepped forward allowing the Admiral to stand again as she took his hands into her own.
"No, Admiral, it should be I who has this pleasure," she said and kissed him lightly on his cheek. "I hope that you will find Arus as a home away from home. We have much to offer, and Im sure once we are done with our business, you will find reason to extend your stay to enjoy all that we have."
The admiral smiled. "Thank you, Princess," he said with a smile. He then turned to the 4 men and 1 woman who followed him. "These are the five cadets that you have requested. I've also brought along their files and information so that you can acquaint yourself with their abilities."
Allura nodded as she turned to face the five cadets. They looked a little nervous, but saw that they held the same look that 5 other men held, only a year before. Had that much time passed?
"Im sure we will be able to accomodate them in every way possible," she said to the admiral. She then stepped to the Admiral's side. "I hope that the 5 of you will also find Arus to be a home away from home. And in time, I know that we come to know each other well. If its alright with you, I have arranged some quarters made for you, so that you can take this day to rest. I know its been a long trip from Earth."
A young cadet stepped forward and bowed slightly. Allura smiled as he met her gaze, his amber eyes meeting her own blue ones, she saw that he possessed a confidence that would rival Keith's.
"It is a pleasure to be here, Princess Allura," he said as he stood at attention. "Its also an honor to be considered to be apart of your legendary team. I am Sergeant Aiden Fox , and I lead this team."
Allura slowly nodded. "Its a pleasure to meet you Sergeant Fox," she said. "Can we arrange a time tomorrow so that I can meet with the rest of your team? I would like to get to know all of you."
The young cadet nodded. "I agree," he said, he then smiled. "For now, I would like you to meet Sergeant Madison Rye, Sergeant Keisuke Suzuki, Sergeant Reyda Sifrai, and Private Lysyl McNamara."
Allura bowed her head slightly at the cadets before her. They saluted her before the Admiral told them to relax. He quietly laughed to himself as he turned to Princess.
"They are little enamored with the new assignment," he said quietly to her. "They may not look it, but this assignment has been the only thing they could talk about during the entire trip."
Allura slowly nodded. "I guess we are celebrities among the students at the academy," she said. "But, Im sure they'll learn quickly just how normal it is here."
She then turned to Coran. The older man cleared his throat and turned to two castle servants who stood nearby. "If it pleases you all, Admiral, I will see your cadets to their quarters," Coran said. "Princess, your father's old study is ready for you and the Admiral, any time you want to get started on those reports."
Allura nodded. "Thank you, Coran," she said. "Admiral, if you will follow me."
