Keith's nightmares of voltron part one nightmares.
He saw her again tonight. The strange blond woman in the big pink dress. When Keith tried to approach her she was grabbed from behind by dark figures and carried away screaming. Keith woke up and sat up in bed. He rubbed his bare chest with his hands and stared into the darkness. He got up and looked at himself in the mirror.
"Not again. Fourth time tonight. I am never going to get any sleep at this rate. "Keith said to himself.
"Bad dreams again? Need something to help you sleep? "the female doctor on the view screen said.
"No thanks I have slept enough. "Keith said and the doctor disappeared.
Every time he woke up the doctor was called automatically. The problem had persisted for a month. He tried to go back to sleep. The next day he met his team in the hall near the command center. Keith was drowsy. Sven ,Lance ,Pidge ,and Hunk looked at him. Keith wore a red officer's uniform with a white collar, Sven wore a black officer's uniform , Hulk wore a yellow shirt orange vest and brown pants. Lance wore a blue shirt with a light brown jacket and light brown pants. Pedge wore a green two piece outfit with blue fringe on it
"More nightmares commander. "Pedge asked.
"Yes. They are getting worse. I have no choice but to resign from Galaxy Alliance. I can't serve in this condition. "
Keith said.
"General Robinson wants to see us. "Sven said.
"Alright I will tell him there. "Keith replied.
They headed to the general's office. General Robinson wore a blue uniform with dark blue patches near his shoulders.
"General I have to resign due to my mental state being compromise by the nightmares. "Keith said.
"I am afraid I can't let you do that because we may have found the answer to your problem commander. Take a look at this. "
the general said.
An image of a old castle with a large hole in the back appeared on the screen. The castle looked like it could collapse. A lion statue stood in front of it.
"It just an old castle sir. "Lance replied.
"That image came from a drone in sector 627. We picked up a distress signal there and we believe that what your looking at is the Castle of Lions. Something not seen in 500 years. "General Robinson said.
"The castle of Lions is said to be the resting place of Voltron a robot made from five separate vehicles. "Pidge explained.
"Voltron is just a myth. No such robot exists. "Pedge said.
"Your wrong Pedge. Voltron just hasn't been seen in 500 years. "Sven said.
"We want you to go there and check it out. If this is the Castle of Lions then you are to try to reactivate Voltron to stop King zarkon from conquering the galaxy. "General Robinson explained.
"The Yamato could take down Zarkon easy why do we need Voltron? "Lance asked.
"Becuase the Space Battleship yamato is constantly dealing with other threats to the alliance. We could use another powerful weapon so we aren't so dependent on the Yamato. "General Robinson said.
"It will take months or even years to get there. "Pedge explained.
"That's way your going on the Space Battleship Yamato the flagship of the fleet,because she is the only ship with a Wave Motion Engine that can cut the time down to hours. Once you get there the Yamato will drop you off and head on to deal with Zarkon's forces elsewhere. Dismissed.'Gneral Robinson said.
The team left the generals office and headed to the docks where the Yamato sat. Captain Wildstar met them as the came up the ramp leading up to the ship.
"Welcome aboard the space Battleship Yamato Commander Keith and his team. "Captain WIldstar said.
The captain shock hands with all the of team as they boarded the ship. The team looked around.
"She sure is big. "Lance said.
"Biggest and most powerful ship in the fleet. Sadly the most overworked as well. This is the first leave we had in five months' "Captain Wildstar said.
"Is it true there are squadrons of fighter planes aboard? "Keith asked.
"Yes we have several squadrons of Cosmo Zeros in the hanger deck. Much better planes then those old Macross jobs they used during the Robotech crisis while we were fighting the Gatlantis. "Captain Wildstar explained.
"Follow me to the bridge. We will be underway shortly. "Captain Wildstar explained.
They headed inside and rode the elevator up to the bridge near the top of the mast. The bridge had several stations around it. The captain sat in an enclosed area at the back. several stations lined the front of the bridge. The crew began to take off.
"Mooring lines cleared sir. "Mark Venture reported.
"Engines full ahead. Set course for sector 672. "Captain Wildstar ordered.
"Course set. Engines full speed ahead. Preparing to climb. "Venture reported.
The Yamato moved away from the dock and then started to climb towards space. Keith looked out the window at the three big turrets with three 18 inch guns each. The Yamato picked up speed and soon was in space heading away from earth.
"Impressive firepower captain. 18 inch gun turrents and a wave motion gun. "Keith said.
"If the Alliance had two or three more of these they wouldn't need Voltron. "Lance said.
"They have consider modifying the sister ships of the Yamato ,but it's been held up by red tape. "Captain WIldstar said.
"Prepare for warp to sector 672. "Captain WIldstar ordered.
"Jump calculated. No obstructions detected at destination. "Nova Forrester said.
"Jump!" Captain WIldstar ordered.
Large circles appeared in front of the ship and as the ship entered them it disappeared. The Yamato reappeared in sector 672 and headed for planet M30R. As they approached the planet the captain turned to his guests.
"Okay this is where you get off. There is a shuttle in the hanger bay. You will take it to the surface of the planet and look for this Voltron thing. "Captain Wildstar said.
Later the team was in the hanger bay. The shuttle was triangle in ship and painted white with a row of windows on the front. They boarded the shuttle and took their seats. Keith and Sven sat up front while Lance ,Pidge, and Hunk sat along the sides. They started the engines and reversed out the open hatch in the bottom of the Yamato's hull. Once they were clear they flew towards the planet. The Yamato's hatch closed and the ship headed away from them. It warped out in the distance.
"Looks like they aren't hanging around. "Hunk said.
"They have things to deal with elsewhere. Let's start down to the surface and look for this castle. "Keith said.
As the shuttle descended a large ship with a skull and red underside appeared ahead.
"It's one of Zarkon's slave ships. They must have been collecting more slaves for Zarkon. Let's try to avoid being seen."
Keith said ,but it was too late.
The shuttle was pulled inside by a tractor beam and the shuttle was quickly surrounded by robot guards.
"Exit the ship or we will remove you by force humans. "A guard said.
"We have no choice. THey have us surrounded. Everyone out. "Keith said.
Once they were out of the shuttle the guards arrested them and loaded them into an empty cell for transport to Planet Doom.
"Some mission this turned out to be. Caught by Zarkon's forces. "Pidge said.
"We will find a way out somehow. "Keith said.
