DARK ANGEL LETTERS
Letter 1
The Castle of Lions was quiet, too quiet. There was peace, Lotor, Zarkon , and Haggar were dead. The remaining Drule Empire no longer held any threat. But the team had been gone for over a year now. Lance, Hunk and Pidge were back on Earth. Keith…well who knew where he was, and if he was alright. They had last seen him a month ago on a visit to Pollux but Wade's men saw him off in the distance and he just barely escaped. These were the absent thoughts of Princess Allura as she was wondering down the corridor toward castle control when a Royal Guard approached her.
"Your highness, this letter was left for you. It has passed all security scans. Clearance code Alpha Zeta Gama."
The guard bowed upon placing it in her hands, turned and left before she could respond in kind. With furrowed brow, Allura opened the parchment paper envelope and began reading…
Dearest Allura,
Though it has not been a very long time since I last gazed upon your beauty, it feels like an eternity to me. I never believed in fairy tales or love at first sight until I met you. Our first meeting wasn't the most romantic or best of times, however, it is forever etched upon my heart. We were both so young but I felt something spark the moment I looked into your beautiful green eyes. I knew immediately that you were the other part of my soul.
Now time and distance has separated us physically but spiritually and mentally know that I am with you. I will always be watching over you, protecting you even if from afar. To ask you to be careful and stay safe would be a waste of time, I know you too well. You are strong willed and stubborn to the bone. Naturally, that is part of your beauty, I wouldn't ask you to change any of it.
Tonight, look to the eastern sky at 10 o'clock for I will be doing the same. I will see your image before me in my mind's eye and kiss your sweet lips good night. Until then be well, princess mine.
Forever,
Your Dark Angel
The princess folded the letter back into its envelope and wiped the tear from her eye with a warm smile on her face. "Keith…" she whispered, turned and ran back to her quarters. Once inside and sure that Nanny was nowhere to be seen, she walked over to her night stand and pulled out a small box. Quickly, her fingers dialed the combination to the lock popping the lid open. Inside, were a few dried pressed mountain lilies, pictures of her parents, Queen Orla, Romelle, Bandor, Larmina, the Voltron Force and now his letter. Allura smiled, "Until tonight my champion".
