Again

I do not own Voltron

Damn it!

She lost her family, again.

She couldn't protect her loved ones, again.

She failed, again.

''Shiro...''

Even though she became Pidge and went to the Garrison. Even though she found information about the whereabouts of her brother. Even though she tried really hard.

She still didn't find her brother or father.

She even left her Mother all alone without saying anything. Now she is stuck in space and her mother all alone. What a pathetic horrible daughter she is. Now her mother is going through all the pain of losing her family, again and alone.

And even though they defeated Zarkon and they thought they were one step closer to saving the universe, they lost Shiro and her team, her family is falling apart. Again.

And they are all left to pick up the pieces.

Keith has lost his brother again and didn't speak with anyone for days, just locking himself up either in the Red lion or in the training room. Hunk was in the kitchen cooking all the time to keep his mind from unnecessary thoughts. Lance tried making the mood better with jokes. But it just didn't work out. Allura tried to encourage everyone but it just felt like she didn't even believe in her own words. Slav talked about all of his theories of what could have happened, they weren't much help. Kolivan said they needed to move on, because that is what was needed. Coran stayed silent but his eyes spoke more than a thousand words could.

And she? She locked herself up in her room with her laptop, trying to find a clue or something. Whatever could help them find Shiro. But she had no success.

The Team was falling apart and it took a lot of time for them to finally accept and adjust. To pick up the pieces. Keith made his decision and became the black paladin, Allura took Red. Everyone tried to play their part. They all decided on their goal: to find and save Shiro and save the Universe, no matter how dreamy it sounded. The gears slowly started moving and slowly, they went on. Forming Voltron, getting more and more allies. Winning more and more battles.

Yet, they still didn't find Shiro, her Father or her brother. There were nights where she was done with it all. But she knew she couldn't go home, it all would have been for nothing and she couldn't leave her team now.

Some night she just couldn't sleep and walked through the empty halls of the castle or works on her laptop. She thought she was the only one but how often did she not saw Keith in the middle of the night training or in the hanger talking to both Red and Black, or that she saw Allura with Red to. How many times has she spied on Allura and Keith when the three of them couldn't sleep? How many times did they found out and tried to capture her? How many times did they wake the others up with their hide and seek games? They all were coping with their feelings in different ways. It is hard on all of them. But they still got each other. They have to focus on their goal, to make it true. They Cannot falter now, they have to keep going.

Shiro can't be dead. Neither can her brother and father. But with the days going by and not finding any clues, Her heart slowly breaks and her hope dies out.

What if she doesn't find them? What if they are dead? What if her friends died? Will she be all alone? What if she died? Then her mother would be all alone. She tries to keep these thoughts away. Sometimes with luck, some days it doesn't work. But she knows she is not the only one with bad thoughts.

She looks into the mirror. Her hair is short, she wears classes. Her purple dress is replaced with the armour of the green paladin. In the mirror stands the green paladin, also known as Pidge. But her name is Katie and Katie wants to go home and be together with her family. Both of them. So does Pidge and so does the green paladin.

Tears of joy leave her eyes as she hears the reason why Keith is crying and soon she finds herself jumping towards the hugging Keith and Allura, joining them. She wraps her short arms around them and lets all the tears she kept in out.

They are going to get Shiro back, he is alive! With that her hope is restored. She is certain after saving Shiro she will find her brother and Father, she will save them, together with her team, and the universe to while they're at it.
