Disclaimer: I do not own Voltron Force or any of the other series in the Voltron universe. Also please read the author's note at the bottom of the chapter to see a surprise disclaimer, since stating it here would be a spoiler!

I only do disclaimers once so please don't bug me if I don't repeat it every freaking chapter. I will however restate a disclaimer if I add something new to the mix.

By the way if anyone wants to be in this story please let me know, I will be happy to add people though please don't wig out at any suggestions I may have for your character. I have plans for this story and don't want to have to change it for your character so if you don't want to accept a few changes, don't bother. I won't suggest anything big, just minor tweaks like maybe age or height or anything that really wouldn't fit with the story (like someone being the new pilot of a lion or something stupid like that).

Chapter 1

Attack on Planet Kyntah

"It doesn't look like there are any more survivors." Said Allura, the pilot of the Blue Lion, as she used her lion to put out fires in the immediate area. They had been searching for almost a day since the Voltron Force arrived on Kyntah yesterday afternoon. So far they had found a handful of survivors that had endured the Robeast attack. Some of them had been trapped inside burning buildings and had to be extracted on foot to avoid structural collapse, while others needed to be pulled from under rubble or have said rubble lifted off of them. Lotor's Robeasts had shown their usual lack of mercy and skill at destruction; it would be several years before Kyntah would be able to stand on it's feet without the aid of Arus or other planets. The team was about to head back to Arus when one last radar sweep of the area showed that there was one more person trapped under a rather large pile of rubble.

"Hey Hunk, gimme a hand here would you?" Asked Pidge, the pilot of the Green Lion, as he and his friend Hunk who piloted the Yellow Lion maneuvered their lions to lift the large fallen section of wall. The rubble pulled away easily and revealed a young woman who lay unconscious underneath a support beam; it had knocked her out, but had also saved her from being crushed by the debris from the building around her. As Hunk and his lion gently lifted the beam off of her, the Green Lion lowered it's head and out of its massive jaws walked it's pilot to retrieve the young woman. Stepping onto the ash covered ground he looked around at what had obviously once been a library. 'What a waste…' he thought to himself as he knelt to pick up a charred book only to have it crumble to ash in his hand. Pidge walked up to the young woman and picked her up gently, holding her bridal style he walked back into his lion and buckled her into the co-pilots seat. All of the lions already needed a thorough cleaning so he didn't think it would be a big deal to have to clean the soot off the seat as well… he and the other pilots were already covered in soot and ash as it was.

"Pidge, Hunk, Allura, you guys ready to head back? The secondary response team can handle finding anyone else now that the fires are out." Said Keith, the pilot of the Black Lion and leader of the Voltron Force. As the team set out for home the fifth member decided to give his opinion of the whole operation,

"If we had gotten here sooner we wouldn't need a secondary response team!" Grumbled Lance, the pilot of the Red Lion. While everyone knew he was right, they also understood his anger and felt as he did… because the Robeast responsible had gotten away before they had arrived. With this in mind, the team left the scarred planet Kyntah behind and headed for home on Arus.

? P.O.V.

The last thing I remember… was sitting in the library reading. The next thing I knew the ceiling collapsed. So when I opened my eyes I couldn't help but panic, more than expecting to be trapped beneath the rubble. What exactly had happened was a mystery to me, but when I looked around I calmed a little when I realized that I was not going to die trapped like a rat. I was lying on a bed in what looked like a hospital and looking around I noticed a tapestry that hung on the wall near the door. The royal crest of the planet Arus, I had been saved by the Voltron Force! Whatever had called them to my planet must have been more than a collapsed building.

"So your awake! Greetings I am Princess Allura, you are safe here on Arus." Said a woman who at that moment walked into the room to see that I was sitting up and indeed awake. She had hip length blonde hair and blue eyes and wore what I had heard from descriptions to be a Voltron Force uniform that consisted of a black jumpsuit like outfit with the shoulders being the color of the Lion the member in question piloted; Her outfit had blue shoulders which meant that she indeed piloted the Blue Lion. I had never met anyone from another planet before so I was unsure of what I was allowed to say,

"Y-y-yes, um… if I may ask your majesty? Why am I here on Arus, what happened?" I said weakly as I averted my eyes, hearing that some cultures thought it rude to look at anyone royal. She laughed a little,

"While I may be a princess, you can treat me like you would anyone else. And to answer your question… your planet was attacked by one of Lotor's Robeasts. Sadly we did not arrive soon enough to stop it. While a large portion of your people are fine, we could not save them all." Allura said with pain in her voice, hardly ever had I heard of Voltron not arriving in time. Though they could not be blamed, Kyntah was a great distance away from Arus no matter how fast the Voltron Lions could fly.

"I'm sure you did all that you could, I think I can safely speak for the rest of my people when I say: Thank you." I said to Allura with a smile, meaning every word. No matter what lies Sky Marshal Wade tried to spread about the Voltron Force, the people of Kyntah had always thought the best of the team and the lions they piloted. Allura smiled back at me and asked one of the nurses in a nearby office to bring me to the tower briefing room when I was ready to walk.

I stayed in the hospital wing of what I was shocked to hear was the very castle of Arus for the next day and a half. It had been two days since the attack on Kyntah had begun and since awakening I had been informed that Princess Allura had welcomed those of the refugees who were not ready to return into her home. Frankly from what I had been told of where I was found, I didn't really have much to go home to. I had lived in an apartment above the Library, my family owned it and lived next door though I had always felt more at home amongst the books than in the manor. However, upon Princess Allura's previous order a nurse was now guiding me to what Allura had called the tower briefing room. The nurse left me at the door, muttering how she had more important things to do, and I entered the room to see a large circular room with five doors numbered from one to five. In the center of the room was an open space where three teens, two boys and a girl, were using a VR simulator to train. They had to be the Voltron Cadets, though I didn't know their names. Off to the side I noticed other members of the force monitoring the cadets, though only two of them stood in attendance.

"Hey your awake, my names Keith and this is-" Said the one with Black hair and light blue eyes, his uniform had only black so he had to be the pilot of the black lion. He was cut off by his companion,

"Hi there pretty lady, my names Lance… and your name is?" Said the one with red hair and light brown eyes, he wore the same uniform as his friend save for the red shoulders of the red lion pilot as well as a brown leather jacket over his uniform. He held out his hand to me as he pushed his friend out of his way. I chuckled a bit and held out my hand to shake his as Keith silently glared at Lance.

"Thank you for the compliment, my name is Seyleen Amalan; but I prefer to be called Sey. It's nice to meet both of you." I said with a smile. At that moment the Cadets ended their training session and the other three pilots entered the room to greet me.

"So you don't remember what happened directly before or during the attack?" stated Keith after I had told them all of what I remembered last. They all seemed disappointed, but tried hard not to let it show.

"I'm sorry if I'm not very helpful, I really wish I could tell you more." I said with my eyes to the floor. Allura then spoke up,

"Well if you want you can stay here with a few of the other refugees for a while, maybe you will remember more in time? I'll show you to a room where you can get cleaned up." She said as she headed behind me to the door to the hallway. I waved goodbye to the others in the room and followed the princess. We took an elevator down a floor and walked by a few doors that had been personalized. This floor had to be the one belonging to the pilots and cadets. We stopped at the second to last door,

"You can stay in one of the cadet rooms. Larmina, my niece, has had this room to herself until now. If you need anything you can ask her. I'll ask her to lend you some clothes for now; you two look about the same size." Said Allura as we walked into the room. It was a simple room with a small window and a bunk bed set into the wall. There was a table with chairs and a desk against the wall. There was a door at the back of the room that more than likely led to a bathroom. I turned and thanked Allura for letting me stay here and she left with a smile after saying that it was not a big deal. I was happy to hear that I was not a burden to my saviors and with that worry out of the way I had only one thing left on my mind: to take a bath.

I hadn't meant to take an hour long bath, though I think anyone who knew exactly how long I had bathed wouldn't have questioned it; I had to wash my hair at least three times to get all of the soot out. I stepped out of the bath and covered myself with a towel I found among a pile of them under the counter. I wiped the steam off the mirror and was shocked to see the difference. Before my shoulder length hair had looked almost black and now it was back to it's natural amber color. I gazed into my own forest green eyes for a moment, hardly believing I had survived what the Voltron Force had explained to have occurred. I sighed and walked out into the bedroom to find that someone had placed a long light blue dress on my bed. From what I had seen of Larmina, and the fact that this dress looked like it had never been worn, she had been happy to lend this to me. I put it on and it barely brushed the floor, though it was a bit tight around the chest. I may look only about eighteen, but surprisingly I'm actually twenty-two! I could still breathe and move easily so I saw no reason to complain. I turned a little, letting the dress swish around, and marveled at it's beauty. It was a simple light blue dress with a triangle of white reaching from the waist and splaying out to the sides of the bottom front of the dress. The bodice cut up into a choker and was sleeveless, leaving my shoulders and arms bare. Thankfully ,the dress was not backless and connected to the back of the choker. I clasped the choker closed just as someone opened the door.

"Miss Amalan? Dinner is ready." Said a maid, who then told me she had been sent to bring me to the dinning hall where the Voltron force awaited me; apparently they had recognized my last name as that of a Kyntah noble. I really wished they hadn't! I hated being a noble, everyone treated me different because I was the second cousin of the crown princess! As my commoner friends had put it, whoop-dee-do! I actually acted more like a commoner than a noble anyway so I preferred to think of myself as one.

The maid opened the door for me and I fought back a grimace, knowing it would be interpreted the wrong way. The members of the Voltron force were seated around the table: Allura at the head of the table, with Keith and Lance on either side. The brown haired pilot of the Green lion, Pidge, sat next to Keith and across from him sat the bulky pilot of the yellow lion, Hunk. Next to Hunk sat Larmina, Allura's niece, and across from her sat the last two cadets Vince and Daniel.

"M-miss Amalan." Stumbled Pidge as I approached the table, he stood and pulled out the chair next to him for me. I couldn't help but smile a little. He was cute, I had to admit, no matter how much I hated being treated like this. The cadets chuckled, and the other pilots cleared their throats to hide theirs. I was about to say thank you, but Allura took my being seated as a signal to speak herself.

"Miss Amalan, when you first arrived I had no idea you were a noble. Why didn't you tell us?" She inquired innocently, she didn't seem mad just curious. I placed my hands on my lap and hung my head, I had been hoping this topic wouldn't come up.

"I… don't like being a noble. It just isn't for me, there's always someone telling you that someone isn't good enough for you to even so much as talk to. And please, everyone just call me Seyleen or preferably Sey." I explained, sad at first but I ended it with a smile; hoping to brighten the mood. With that everyone just smiled kindly and went about starting up conversation around the table, I guess my heritage was nothing special here and not something to debate. I could get to like it here!

After dinner concluded I followed Larmina back to our room where before going to bed I decided to sit in the window sill and gaze at the moon. It was so much larger than Suuh, the moon that orbited Kyntah.

"So… the top bunk is mine so you can have the bottom bunk. You can keep that dress if you want, I have plenty that I never look forward to wearing. Any questions?" Stated Larmina as she sat in one of the chairs with her feet on the table. I looked to her and was about shake my head no, when a thought occurred to me.

"Might I borrow something other than dresses? While I am a noble, I do prefer pants." I said making her laugh a little; and so began our little fashion show of sorts. I tried on an outfit similar to the one Larmina wore, but found it to be a bit to stuffy. Next I tired out a combination of shorts and tank tops… the outfit worked but something felt like it was missing. Then I noticed a long skirt that looked more like a wrap… I donned that and got the feeling that this would do very nicely. The tank top was black and silver like the Voltron cadet uniform while the shorts were black, though the wrap reached almost to my ankles and was a pale shade of purple. I did an experimental twirl and found that I really liked the look and feel of the deceptively innocent outfit.

"Why did I never think to combine those… fashion and functionality all in one! I think we will totally get along!" Larmina said as she clapped her hands in a show of appreciation of my fashion sense. Now that I had something picked out that I could wear other than a dress, I yawned and told Larmina that I was going to bed and climbed into the bottom bunk. Today had been full of meeting new people and tomorrow would probably be just as eventful.

Author's note: ok so people may be wondering where I get the names for things and put simply they are all written in Al Bhed: a language from Final Fantasy! Here's a breakdown of the words used; in the future this will be called "Al Bhed Breakdown" and will be included at the end of every chapter with a new Al Bhed word (which should be almost every chapter):

Kyntah - Pronounced Keen-tah, translates to Garden

Suuh - Pronounced Suh (like "huh" but with an "s" sound), translates to moon.

For now these are the only Al Bhed words, but please keep in mind that I sadly do not own Final Fantasy or the Al Bhed language as that honor goes to the wonderful Square Enix.
