Voltron Wizards to Paladins
ESKK: Well here we are the end of season 1. Jeez it's been a wild ride and I almost thought we'd never make it this far. So to all you who have stuck around rejoice for you are part of this even further. And for those of you wanting certain things to happen to certain characters… well let's say you get your wish if it's been granted. Now then Paladins it's time to form Voltron!
(Start Castle of Lions)
The green Lion Rowena made her return to the castle at breakneck speed because right now a member of the pride was taken from them. They had little time to waste in order to get them back. So when the Paladins minus one and Allura stepped into the command deck Cedric got to work. "Hermione look through the information from the ship find out where Zarkon's central command is at." Cedric ordered while taking off his helmet while his arm was in a sling from being Splinched.
"Already on it." Hermione said as she got to work with Ron looking over her shoulder.
"What happened? Where's Allura?" Coran asked to which Sirius but in on this.
"And while we're on the subject where is Harry?" Sirius asked as Remus agreed on this.
"They captured them both. They managed to get the information to us at the cost of being captured I couldn't do anything." Cedric said taking full blame for this.
"How is that possible?" Coran asked to which Remus kept a level head on this.
"Coran I'm sorry things didn't go as planned." Cedric began before Remus stepped in.
"He's right we can't expect everything to go as intended. But right now we cannot focus on what went wrong." Remus said calming the situation as best he could knowing how Sirius could get when upset.
"Exactly right now we need to figure out how to make it right. Hermione, anything?" Cedric asked looking over to Hermione with concern on his face as she worked.
"Everyone, look at this." Hermione said to which she pulled the image on the main screen. Once it was there it showed the image of Zarkon's headquarters which was by far the biggest ship they had ever seen thus far.
"Is that supposed to be a space ship or a bloody planet?" Draco asked in shock to what he saw.
"Look at the size of it!" Coran said to which Hermione nodded.
"About the size of a Death Star I'd wager." Hermione said as that was a scary thought she dare not thing of anything bigger (Star Killer Base). "I think we should go in right away. Every minute we waste gives Zarkon more time to prepare for us." Hermione said as they had friends they needed to save after all.
"I'd agree if there was five of us we're a Paladin short." Draco said having second thoughts on this.
"He's right with Voltron as a whole we could barely take on one fleet a ship this massive could hold a thousand fleets." Ron said as this was one of those moments where they needed a plan and a damn bloody miracle to pull it off.
"Zarkon wants Voltron and if we go in we run the risk of delivering it straight to Zarkon himself." Remus said while he looked to the others.
"But we can't leave Harry or Allura there." Sirius argued as it seems they were about to start bickering amongst each other.
"WE need to think how are we going to get Harry and Allura back?" Cedric asked knowing they needed a plan and one that had the highest success rate of being pulled off.
(Galra War Ship Brig)
The Galra War Ship began to come in for docking at High Command with two prisoners onboard. It had just arrived in fact so it was going through the final docking for Zarkon's HQ. Inside it Harry and Allura were sharing a cell as Harry was not in any pain at last and she removed his helmet to see the scar. To her shock when she had seen it the scar was pulsing red around the thunder shape and it even looked a tad bit infected. Not noticeably mind you but just enough that it looked serious. During the flight she was happy to say it died down but the pulsing was still there.
It was a long ride and Allura knew they would need to conserve there strength especially after Harry had his sapped out of him by his own scar. "A-Allura?" Harry began as he came too to which Allura saw this.
"Harry you're ok." Allura said happy to see he was ok.
"Yeah I suppose I am... and so are you." Harry said happy to see Allura was in one piece.
"Don't worry about me and save your strength." Allura said as she began to get Harry a bit more comfortable. But since she lacked any sort of pillow she had in turn opted to do what the female lead did for the male lead in Hermione's manga. She had Harry rest his head on her lap to make sure he was as comfortable as possible.
"Allura I." Harry began but Allura stopped him.
"Don't like I said you need to save your strength Harry." Allura said to which Harry did as told for a bit. It was calm and silent despite their current situation but Allura decided to break the silence. "Harry if you have enough strength to talk... why did you do it?" Allura asked looking to Harry.
"Why did I do what?" Harry asked looking to the Altean.
"Why risk your life for mine?" Allura asked to which Harry hadn't a foggiest. "You play an important piece for Voltron and my life shouldn't supersede the lives of countless beings in the Universe oppressed by the Galra." Allura said to which Harry sighed a bit.
"I guess... you were worth the risk for me." Harry confessed causing Allura to go wide eyed with a slight blush then transferred over to her marks that began to glow.
"W-what?" Allura stuttered as she did not expect Harry to say something like that.
"I know kind of daft on my part with how it turned out." Harry said as he just laid there on Allura's lap.
"No... No it's just you risked it all for me... I'm furious about it yes... but I can't help but feel like I'd do the same thing if not something similar." Allura confessed as they waited to arrive at Galra HQ.
"Quite a bad place to have a heart to heart Allura." Harry said to which Allura chuckled as well. "I suppose." Allura said while she laid there.
It was quiet for a moment until Harry spoke up at long last. "You smell nice." Harry said causing Allura to blush at this. "Are these what juniberries smell like?" Harry asked with his eyes closed and a smile on his features.
Allura blushed for a moment before smiling at how sweet this boy can be. She then gently caress his hair a bit letting him rest as she imagined herself and Harry in the Juniberry fields of Altea when it was still in its prime. It wasn't long until Allura looked to Harry and his lips. Unaware to her she carefully grew closer to them as it appeared like Allura and Harry were about to kiss. But just as their lips were about to meet they felt the ship dock just before Allura pulled away and to which Allura sighed in response. "Seems we docked." Allura said realizing how this could turn out and how this may he where there luck runs out.
Soon Harry began to sit up and in turn he took Allura's hand as they waited for whoever there undertaker would. The pair didn't have to wait long before the heard approaching footsteps. Just when those steps stopped at their cell door the door opened and from it Haggar and two of her druids stood there though for them it was the first time meeting them. "Both of you come with me." She ordered with her threat evident if they were to refuse.
(Castle of Lions)
Draco was typing on his console as they looked over the data on Zarkon's base. "Anything?" Cedric asked as nearby Remus helped Hermione as best he could on this.
"There's just no bloody way in. They'll have us tracked from every possible direction." Draco said knowing they needed to get in somehow.
"There has to be something keep looking." Cedric ordered before standing up and looking to the solemn Coran and Sirius. Cedric began walking over to the two knowing they must blame him for Harry and Allura being taken somehow.
He then walked over to them just as Remus went to help Ron before finally speaking. "I know you're worried about them. We all are infect I'm so sorry I let them slip away like this." Cedric said looking down a bit. "If only I was a better leader." Cedric said as this was a lot of responsibility for him to undertake.
"I know it's not, your fault. It's just... I lost so much I can't lose Allura to." Coran said to which Sirius nodded as well.
"I feel the same about Harry. James and his parents took me in when my parents beat me and kicked me out because I was in Gryffindor and I didn't support there pureblood beliefs." Sirius said to which he worried further. "When James and Lily died Harry became my last link to those I called family." Sirius said before looking to Sirius. "Cedric we all make mistakes that's what happens when you're brave enough to make decisions to lead those who would follow." Sirius said to which Remus heard a laughed a bit.
"Sirius have you finally gotten serious?" Remus joked to which this did lighten the mood a bit.
"Oh quiet you." Sirius countered before looking to the data. "So let's get those two back after all can't have Godric without his Paladin and this castle without its princess." Sirius said to which Cedric sighed.
"That may be hard unless you can get us a way into Zarkon's ship unseen." Cedric said as that was the conundrum here.
"Hold a tic." Coran said as he looked to the map as it looked in on a planetoid. "I think I have a way." Coran said showing they just might have a plan.
(Meanwhile Galra High Command the throne room)
A platform lift rose up and from it Harry and Allura were seen handcuffed while being led by Haggar and kept restrained by her two druids. They had the perfect view of space around them before they were being lead down to a figure in regal like robes. Harry couldn't help but fear a sense of fear and dread run through him as he saw the figure and have it grow stronger the closer they got.
He knew who this was and the fact they were being taken to talk to him personally suggest that something was going to happen soon. They soon stopped and just as they did the Tyrannical Ruler of the Universe spoke. "Princess Allura." Zarkon himself spoke causing Allura to go wide eyed at this. Harry hissed silently in pain as he felt his scar sting once more but ignored it knowing how impossible it was for Voldemort to be this far out.
When Zarkon had called her by name Allura had let out a small gasp in response because standing before her was the very being who took everything from her. Her father, her mother, her throne, and most of all her planet and her people. The fact she was so close to the vile genocidal murderer who had robbed her of so much Allura at this moment lost her composure and went near berserk on him. You monster! You destroyed Altea!" Allura roared out charging at Zarkon before Harry could stop her.
"Allura wait!" Harry called out but before he could stop her Haggar acted and released her magic using it to restrain Allura to stop her attack.
Allura of course gasped in shock as Haggar held in in the air. Harry was shocked at what he saw as never had he seen such powerful magic before. He doubt even Dumbledore could match up to this woman let alone Voldemort. When Haggar released Allura it seemed she hadn't lost her fire as she began to get back up with a glare torts Zarkon. "Voltron is going to put an end to your empire." Allura said to which Harry carefully observed this.
"No, it will only make me more powerful. Your father knew that as well as I. That's why he led me to believe he destroyed it all those years ago." Zarkon said before he looked to Harry who glared at Zarkon. Harry hated to admit it but he felt like all the joy in the world had been sucked right out of him. It was almost like he was staring into the every face of evil itself. A Darkness that casts a shadow over darkness itself. "I see the Red Lion has passed the reigns to a new Paladins a pup of all things." Zarkon noted as Harry was much younger then Alfor was when the Red Lion chose him.
Harry only gulped a bit but stood his ground before Zarkon continued but what he had said made Harry curious. "Regardless, your new Paladins will come for you, and they will deliver Voltron to me, and with it, the key to unimaginable power." Zarkon said to which Harry glared at him for this especially when his gaze returned to Harry. "That power can be shared with you young one." Zarkon said noting the Earthling had this certain disposition to him. "After all you do have this disposition for power." Zarkon said knowing full well that Voltron requires five to utilize.
Harry then had a small flashback to his first year when he remembered his first official meeting with Voldemort. 'There is only power and those who are too weak to take it.' The memory of Voldemort said in Harry's mind to which Harry was reminded of Voldemort in Zarkon.
"Sorry..." Harry began getting a second wind while glaring at Zarkon. "I have no intentions of joining you in this or any universe." Harry said while glaring at Zarkon who then scoffed a bit.
"No matter." Zarkon said before Haggar spoke up.
"My lord I would like to take the boy his abilities with that wooden stick that catalyst intrigues me and I sense another presence emanating from his cranial scar." Haggar said desiring to run her own experiments to see what this power and presence was.
"Do with him as you wish Haggar." Zarkon said to which Harry was wide eyed before Allura could react.
"Harry!" Allura cried out but that was all Harry got to hear before he ended up blacking out when Haggar user her magic to knock him unconscious.
(Back at Castle of Lions)
"Everyone, eyes up here," Cedric call out as a plan has been made with Sirius, Remus, and Coran stand by as they knew the plan already as Cedric started to explain the idea is as he said, "
We've got a plan to get Allura and Harry out. We're going to jump to the heart of the enemy, unseen, and undetected."
"Wait, I thought Allura is needed to open up a wormhole," Hermione said as they understand Allura is the castle will respond to as Coran responded with, "It's true that Allura powers the castle's ability to travel through wormholes. However, I think we have enough of her residual essence stored in the system to maybe make one jump."
"Hold on, maybe, as in it may not work at all if we do?" Draco said as he makes a good point on that as he may be brave to face against the Galra forces but not do a suicide attempt to open a wormhole as Remus said, "We have a theory on that, as its Allura essence the castle may respond to, but we can try boosting it with our own magic, if it is a form of quintessence we may able to keep a stable wormhole to jump through, but it would only works once when Allura own magic stored magic run out from the castle."
"In theory that sound good professor, but where do go to wormhole in as if we do it next to the ship,, the wormhole will act like a beacon drawing all the fleets around Zarkon fortress to us right away," Hermione said with Coran nodded as he turn to the window screen as he hit a few keys bringing up a map around Zarkon solar system base to that as he said, "Easy to say, We'll wormhole here as well hide the castle within this giant gas planet in Zarkon's command system. The gas is so dense, we'll be hidden."
AS the screen show the detail about the planet as its gases were the perfect cover like hiding a sea ship in a fog bank as Cedric started to explain the next step of the plan as he said, "From there we'll use the castle to scan for Allura and Harry on Zarkon ship, as its unknown if they will be keep together, or not, and if it's the 2nd then we will have to launch Godric."
"Wait I thought the idea is to find and save Harry and Allura, from that place, not give the Galra a lion to take to leave us with a lion sort and no form Voltron at all," Ron said as Cedric nodded and said, "I know, which is why we are betting on Godric to find and save harry himself, using their bond, as hopefully Godric will respond to the Bond he has with harry once we're near, we'll keep all the fleet around focus on us, while hoping Godric will to the rest."
"We'll be taking a huge risk with that, as the only time Godric ever acted on its owe is when Harry was in danger," Hermione said as Sirius said to them, "I don't like this plan ether... but I am willing to take that chance, if we can save harry, we can save Allura as well and get out soon as we can as its all for nothing from here."
"We will attack Zarkon before he knows what hit him," Cedric said as Coran said, "But like we said before there only enough energy to wormhole in, and without Allura we won't have enough energy to wormhole out."
"It doesn't matter. We're not leaving without her or harry," Cedric said as Sirius gave a nod along with Remus, and everyone else as they understood the risk, thankfully leaving Dobby out as he is on earth, no need to risk any more than needed as if they failed, then they failed everyone and they won't do so.
(Zarkon ship, Haggar Lab)
Harry started to open his eyes, within a daze as he was knock out by that Dark space witch power, did a number on him with his scar as well.
Blinking his eyes with his site clearing up, and felt a uncomfortable feeling around him, as he could not move any of his limb to move of shift, and his back felt like it was press up against a metal plate which isn't far off as his senses came back to him as well he saw himself on a table of sort within Galra lab of some sort, but to him it seem to be a mix of a science lab and a potion making room as he sees vials all around him with some caldron like pots, and some flask with glass tubing around it, and also there seem to be some tech around him as well as he hears a heart monitor beeping.
Soon as he look before him as he lifted his head up, without his glasses it was hard to see much for him with his helmet goes help adjust his site when he wearing it, but he doesn't need them to see detail of a dark cloak witch before him as she said, "Awake I see, good, because I need you to tell me something."
"Depends do you have my glasses?" Harry asked while also taunting her but seriously he needed his glasses back.
Haggar didn't let it bother her knowing it was quiet hard to get under her skin. "When you first arrived I had detected a presence within your scar leeching off you though very unstable." Haggar began to which Harry had been heard this a lot lately. "After which I delved deeper it appeared to be a fragment of sorts but it came with another presence one completely untainted naïve really." Haggar explained almost hovering through the room, then again Harry can't really see her feet from his position or under her cloak.
"Ok and why would you bloody care about it enough to keep me alive?" Harry asked to which Hagar chuckled in response.
"My reason is simple... it garnered my interest and curiosity took hold. Perhaps these presence attached to your life will serve the Empire more than it would yourself." Haggar said to which Harry looked around for an escape and in turn took notice to the wires attached to him as well as containers two of which were large empty ones. Though they were empty the two containers looked like you could fit an entire body in there. He then noticed another one labeled mind you but he could not understand Galra dialect and thus would not know what it translates to for some time. But to Haggar it was a sample donated to her by Ranviegs lieutenant who went by the name Krolia.
"What do you plan to do to me then?" Harry asked getting nervous before he noticed Haggar's hands beginning to glow bright.
"Don't ask such an obvious question... I intend to extract them you are but the container after all and as the container the contents you contain is the only interest I have." Haggar said to which her hands glowed brighter with the energy she was about to use.
'Oh Quiznack.' Harry mentally cursed realizing how much this was going to hurt.
Soon Haggar's experiment began and in turn she blasted Harry with the full force of her magic causing him pain unlike any he felt before. His screams were heard all over as he felt the energy seep into his skin and dig deep inside his being. He could feel it the energy was digging into his very being like hands or claws tearing their way through. He didn't realize it but his scar was beginning to release a black ink like substance with smoke mixed in.
It wasn't long until Harry felt the metaphorical and metaphysical claws begin to grab something, something very foreign to him. Then the wires and tubes attached to him began to glow one set releasing a dark aura while the other a golden light. They began to transfer into the two large containers while the smaller one activated and transferred over to the container with a glowing substance. It wasn't long until Harry saw it the darkness eating away at his sight. Harry began to black out as despite being restrained he had tried to move to do something to stop the pain. Then in his last visions of sight he saw it... the containers now had something inside them.
The dark one looked like some sort of dark creature as it spaz out and moved around on itself trying to do something. Haggar's attention was drawn to it as she observed it with great detail and a sense of familiarity to it. Harry's attention was drawn to the other creature in the other tube. It was moving in a calm pure form as if it was untainted by the darkness of the universe. It moved around the tube almost like it was exploring its new environment curious and innocent. Harry felt drawn to it like a desire to protect it but his vision grew heavy once more.
Was this it? Was tearing those creatures out of him killing him? Harry didn't know until he let the blackness consume him and thus went silent.
(Meanwhile Department of Mysteries Ministry of Magic)
An unspeakable was sighing as he was jotting down the, prophesies in the prophesy room. Cataloging each container while making sure not to take them from where they belong. He knew they could only be taken by those it involved and also made sure to note any that had gone dark completely as it was a sign the prophesy had been completed and can be safely removed from the location. As he did his job though he heard a cracking sound and went wide eyed before looking. He looked and in turn saw one of the orbs for H.P. began to crack. The crack started small before it began to spread out in a web sort of way.
The unspeakable worker began to step back in fear and even dropped is clipboard and quill. Then the, prophesy completely shattered to which the worker ran for it to inform his superiors of what transpired.
(Meanwhile at a Hidden Shack)
Voldemort was trying to rest and conserve his strength with recent events. Nagini was slithering around hunting for food as wormtail was making sure he was well fed. He had to be careful with how much magic he used since this form was weak until he acquired the last ingredient for the ritual. Harry Potter has vanished and despite Dumbledore claiming otherwise Voldemort knew the Goblet would acquire the boy for him. After all it can be confounded so it seemed fair that the Harry can be summoned by the Goblet to participate in the Tri-Wizard Tournament.
But just as Pettigrew and Nagini returned the snake went wide eyed as did Voldemort for the Dark Lord began to scream in pain from an unknown source. The snake was flailing out as it felt the same pain as its master. "WORMTAIL!" Voldemort roared through the pain but then saw it. The Death Mark on Peter was reacting which meant something was wrong with himself. But that was impossible he wasn't poisoned nor was he attacked directly... so this could only mean much to his horror one of his Horcruxes was being threatened. He knew not how he knew this but he knew deep down it to be the case. After all he had felt a similar pain over two years ago when his diary was destroyed.
"My lord." Peter stuttered in fear of the Dark Lord.
Voldemort had to ensure his Horcruxes were in one piece but before he could give the order he felt his mind go elsewhere. In a brief moment he saw it Harry Potter being attacked by some sort of Dark Witch. He knew not how or where he was... nor the armor the boy was endowed with but he knew Harry was in danger. If the boy was in this sort of pain that reflected to Voldemort then in his great ire knew he had to 'save Harry,' because the boy's blood was needed for the ritual he had in stored. But as quickly as it came it vanished as Voldemort felt the pain recede from him.
"My lord." Peter stuttered to which Voldemort glared a bit.
"Peter call Crouch and tell him... to find an alternative access to Harry's Blood in the event the Goblet does not obey." Voldemort growled fearing the worse. If Harry died by any but his own hands then any satisfaction of revenge would be mute and in turn he would feel unfulfilled.
(Hogwarts headmaster's office Dumbledore)
Dumbledore was wide eyed when he saw the instruments meant to monitor Harry go off one by one. Some of them shattered which Dumbledore knew not if it was because the Horocrux inside Harry had by some miracle been removed or the boy himself has died. Soon the ones monitoring the Horocrux began to shatter while the ones monitoring his health went wild until they began to change. Soon to his horror they began to enter a dull state which meant Harry was teetering to the edge and one wrong move would mean his death.
"By Merlin." Dumbledore gasped to himself realizing that Harry may very well die this day.
Soon he heard a knock from the door to which with a wave of his wand hid the instruments for the time being. "Enter." Dumbledore said regaining his composure for the time being.
Soon he was met with a combination of Snape, Alastor Moody, and Trelawney as they all walked in. "Ah what brings you all here?" Dumbledore asked to which Telawney spoke first.
"Oh just handing in lesson plans and the like." The Seer said to the headmaster to which Alastor scoffed a bit.
"Yes but it seems Potter and his friends as well as both Malfoy and Diggory's apprenticeships have come to question." Snape commented that he knew they needed to cover it up more since Draco was his godson after all.
"Ah yes strikes me as unusual that they would all acquire an apprenticeship around the same time." Alastor said as mad eye's paranoia had been a great aid in capturing death eaters and the like.
"Ah yes well I'll be happy to look into all of it as soon as possible." Dumbledore began before Trelawney went silent as her eyes began to glass over. "Professor?" Dumbledore asked with concern as he had only seen her like this twice before. Both times resulted in events yet to come being enacted.
"The Defender of the Stars shall meet his Nemesis in the form of the Destroyer of Life. The Snake who bears the name of Riddles shall done the name of the founder serpent and in turn shall shed its skin through trial and struggle to become the dragon who hunts those who oppose its conquest." She began in a voice that Dumbledore knew was telling that of a, prophesy. "The Boy-Who-Lived-Twice shall be the Lions head who challenges the Demon Dragon for the fate of all Realities. Neither can truly live in harmony for one must die so the other may live." She continued showing that Harry managed to survive the ordeal he was in. What made it worrisome however was a possible threat that would be compared to a bitter rivalry. Two foes equal in every possible outcome at war against each other in a universe far too small for the both of them. "Upon the rift where there final battle shall take place the Defender shall be the Atlas who supports this universe while the Dragon will be the devourer who brings death to all for when this day comes One Shall Stand and One Shall Fall to decide on the seed who would birth a whole new reality." She finished to which Dumbledore, Snape, and Alastor all heard this.
Soon the Seer regained herself and looked around noticing the shocked eyes upon her. "Oh sorry did something happen?" She asked to which Dumbledore took charge. "Professor Trelawney I shall take those papers and send you a response as soon as possible." Dumbledore said while sending the teacher to handle her classes.
Snape was wide eyed at what he heard while Alastor was even more so though inside he was both excited and worried. After all the real Moody would keep this to himself but Barty Crouch Jr. will no doubt inform his Lord of what he had just heard.
(Meanwhile with Harry in an unknown Place)
Harry began to come to as he woke up this time freed and finally seeing clearly without his glasses. He stood up and looked around before noticing he was in a place of pure white that despite this he saw looked similar to Kings Cross Station but mixed with the Castle of Lions. It was almost like Altea's own version of Kings Cross station. But why would it look like this as he looked around. As Harry walked he soon bumped into something which knocked him down. He looked up and was wide eyed when he saw Godric standing there towering over him as if waiting.
"Godric?" Harry asked seeing the Red Lion there waiting on him. "What are you doing here?" Harry asked the Lion that formed Voltron's right arm before a new voice was heard.
"He's waiting for you Harry." Came a voice Harry never heard before but instinctively recognized. He turned around in shock to see none other than his mother but she was not alone here for with her was another woman who looked like an older version of Allura.
"M-mum?" Harry asked in shock when he saw her here of all places.
"Hello sweetheart." Lily Potter nee Evans greeted her son as Harry ran through his head of what had happened up to now.
"Bloody hell I... I died didn't I?" Harry asked to which Lily smiled a bit but then sighed.
"No young one but you are teetering torts it." The other woman said as she had walked over to Harry and put a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"Yes Harry, and Godric is here to help you find your way back... if you so choose to." Lily said gesturing to the Red Lion who waited for his Paladins decision.
"If I so choose to?" Harry asked while looking to his mother before asking his other questions. "But wait where are, we? And who are you?" Harry asked starting with the two big questions.
"Well the first one is difficult to explain... but I can explain the other one is simple enough." The woman began before smiling the same smile he had seen on Allura. "My name is Melenore and I am Allura's mother." Melenore introduced herself as she looked to Harry with a smile.
"Wait Allura's mother but how?" Harry asked knowing the woman who carried and brought Allura into the universe had died over 10,000 years ago.
"Tell me Harry... what do you think this place is?" Lily asked looking to her son.
"It... kind of looks like King's Cross Station but without the people and it looks like the Castle of Lions was mixed in." Harry said to which Melenore smiled to this seeing where she could go with this.
"Yes Harry... see this is well a ferry to the afterlife one you are free to board if you so choose." Lily said looking to Harry. "It takes the form of what holds most sway in our hearts... for me it looks like the flower fields outside my old home." Lily said as she picked up a lily that appeared out of thin air.
"For me it appears as the Juniberry fields my daughter and I had spent much of her childhood outside of lessons at." Melenore explained but that didn't make sense to Harry.
"But why does it look like an Altean version of Kings Cross Station?" Harry asked to which Lily smiled to this.
"Harry, sweetheart for you Kings Cross was where your life changed forever where you found friend and family to last a life time. But the Altean aspect of it is new because despite that someone has taken residence inside a large part of your heart and now she holds sway in your heart to the point this place had changed for you alone." Lily said as Harry looked around and realized what she meant.
"Allura." Harry said realizing what his mother and Allura's mother was talking about.
"Precisely this Dumbledore fellow who champions love did not truly realize how strong it truly was. A bond had formed between you and my Allura a bond so powerful that it could even call to you from where you are." Melenore said while looking to Harry.
"Thus you have the choice Harry to board Godric and return to fight for the Universe or board a train and go on to the next great adventure, as Dumbledore would say." Lily said walking about a bit smiling to her son.
"I... I don't know." Harry said as he was worried about this.
"Don't worry time moves in a different way here so take all the time you need Harry." Melenore urged to which the three sat on a bench and in turn Harry leaned on his mother who began to caress his head as he tried to think it over.
(With Allura)
Allura heard her cell door open again after she and Harry were separated and in turn she saw a familiar figure threw into the cell in question. The cell door closed again and Allura ran over to the person and saw it was Harry himself with rings under his eyes. Allura had managed to secure his glasses before but as she looked him over she felt for a pulse and breathing. She found both and sighed in relief to this turn of events but saw he was very weak.
"Harry wake up! Come on Harry wake up!" She called out trying to get Harry to wake up. "Harry please wake up!" She begged trying to awaken the Boy-Who-Lived-to-Become-a-Paladin. "Only one chance." Allura said realizing what she could do to help him. After all she managed to revive the Balmerra perhaps she could do the same for Harry. Allura in turn focused her Quintessence onto Harry causing her Altean Marks to glow from the event. As she did this she only had one intention in mind and that was to save Harry's life even if it cost her own life in the exchange.
"Please Harry life... not just for the sake of the universe but for the sake of those who care for you. Those who love you." Allura said focusing her life energy to Harry. "For my sake." She added last as she had one last idea. She had read in the past that an Altean can directly transfer some of their power to another in the most intimate way possible which was a kiss between the provider and the receiver. Allura then moved her lips closer to Harry intent on doing all she could to save his life. And soon there lips met as despite the situation it looked like a romantic kiss all the while Allura transferred some of her own Quintessence into Harry.
(Harry)
Harry then felt a pull as he stood up in shock to which he heard Godric's roar. "It seems someone wants you to return." Lily smiled softly as she knew who it was.
"Who?" Harry asked to which Melenore smiled.
"Allura of course." Melenore said to which Harry was shocked at this in response.
"She cares that much?" Harry asked in shock to which Lily put a comforting hand on her sons shoulder.
"And it seems that care is mutual." Lily smiled to which Harry finally made his choice.
"Ok... I'll go back." Harry to which Lily smiled. "I'll do it for Allura above all else." Harry said to which Melenore smiled as well just as Godric lowered his head and opened his maw so Harry may enter.
"Ok then... but before you go Harry." Lily began getting Harry's attention. "Your father told me to tell you that you've chosen a beautiful, kind, and strong young woman to give your heart to." Lily said to which she smiled a bit. "Also a message seek out someone named Krolia and when you find her tell her 'I do solemnly swear to Prongs, Padfoot, Moony, Wormtail, Doe, and Mongoose that I am up to no good." Lily said as that sounded exactly like the password to access the Marauders map with changes and adding two more Marauders. He knew his mother was no Marauder in her school days but being called Doe made sense but where did Mongoose come from?
"Ok... I will." Harry said before Melenore spoke up.
"And a message from me to you and Allura... tell Allura I said hi and that I miss her and most of all am so proud of her integrity and strength despite the loss of Altea." Melenore said to which Harry understood. "And one last thing from me and Lily to both of you." Melenore said getting a mischievous look on her face. "Make sure to give us both plenty of grandchildren." Melenore said causing Harry to blush beet red and go wide eyed at this.
"I um er." Harry said which got a laugh out of the two.
"No need to rush." Lily joked as well but Harry regained himself and joined in on the laughter.
Harry then calmed down and hugged his mother one last time for good measure. "Thank you... and I'll see you one day." Harry said to which Lily nodded.
"And I shall be waiting for you that day as well but with your father by my side." Lily said and in turn Harry nodded and took his leave. Once Harry boarded Godric the Red Lion stood back up and roared out before vanishing from sight leaving only Lily and Melenore behind.
"He's quiet the young man I'm sure he'll make my Allura happy." Melenore said to which Lily nodded in response.
"I can say the same about your daughter for my son." Lily said as it seems if they played their cards right Lily and Melenore would become in-laws.
(Living world Allura and Harry)
Harry soon awaken as he felt a strong energy flowing through him, and felt someone kissing him, as he open his eyes to his surprise Allura is the one kissing him, with her mark glowing, Harry thought she looked beautiful as he reach his hands up to her touching her cheek.
Allura being surprise by this as she let off the kiss and look down at Harry to see his eyes open, knowing he will be okay as she could not help but smile, with Harry saying, "Hey."
"Hi," Allura said back to him as soon a few tears came forth from her eyes, could not help it but letting them fall with Harry said to her, "I'm glad to see you alright."
"I was fine, I should be the one saying that," Allura said as they both got a small laugh out of that.
(The throne room)
All of Zarkon Trusted generals has gather within the throne room as one General said, "Sire, allow me to send my fleet to protect the command system. I will stop Voltron before it can get close."
"You will do no such thing, Prorok. We will allow them inside our perimeter," Zarkon spoken up cutting off his General from saying anything else with his witch standing at his side as she told everyone, "Once in, they won't get out."
"Ready all fleets. On this day, the paladins will be destroyed, and I will have Voltron, and all the paladins will follow me or be destroy," Zarkon said as he believes Voltron will be his, with one General step up and said, "But what about the red Paladin, sire? Surely he won't follow you, we should have him executed."
"That won't be necessary," Haggar said as suddenly the container that held the dark entity came forth being presented to all as the Galra witch said, "I have remove the fragment within the red paladins scar, leeching off his power as well and life force. While removing it, the Paladins life was slowly diminishing, we won't need him anyone when someone else can become the Red Lions Paladin, as once we have gather all 5 lions, the red paladin will be no more."
A 2nd hand Galra soldier, to one of the Generals in the room, look at the dark fragment as his eyes widen a bit to the look of it as he saw something pure evil, as the entity inside was moving around, suddenly came up to the glass and scream out with a face like a snake, as the Galra soldier didn't know what it was, but he knew one thing, 'They must escape.'
(The gas planet)
Within the red clouds of the Gas planet, the worm hole open and very brightly and strong, as the castle of lions came forth from it, as they flew into Galra Territory.
(Castle of Lions)
AS Sirius and Remus were at the Teludav stand as they looked a bit exhausted for using the device for the first time as they let off when Cedric said, "We're here."
The two adults fell on their asses as Sirius said, "How does the princess do this every time, opening up these worm holes?"
"Before Altea was destroy, Princess Allura had great training from her father of how to control her ability, with what you told me of how wizard magic becomes stronger the more they practice, the same apply to Allura training as well, you can say," Coran said as that does make sense for everyone as Hermione had a mental note and would look up Altean "Magical" Training later, but right now there is a mission to do and a princess to save.
Coran got started scanning for Allura energy signature as well as Harry's, and soon on screen as two signals are seen with Coran saying, "I'm detecting Allura's energy signature, as well as Harry's. From this Distance, the signal's pretty weak, but they are somewhere in Zarkon Main ship."
"Good, because I don't to bloody look for them all over the place," Draco said as Coran typing as much as he could while saying, "Once we get closer, we'll be able to Narrow down the location where the princess and harry is being held."
"Okay everyone, this is it. We're going to come in fast and without warning, after we; Launch Godric into space, we attack," Cedric said as they have one shot to pull this off, and he didn't want to waste it.
"Once they realize what hit them we'll have both Harry and the Princess and be on our way." Cedric said to which it was in agreement. "Now get to your lions hopefully Godric will not be far behind." Cedric said to which everyone began to quickly make their way to the lions.
(With Harry and Allura)
The two were still in the cell waiting for something to happen. They must have assumed Harry had died in here no doubt to try and break Allura but she managed to save his life. Of course Allura saw Harry's scar was bleeding to which she cleaned the wound but despite this he felt better than he had ever felt before which was odd to say the least.
Right now they needed a way to get out and reunite with the others but they were in the belly of the beast right now. Escape may be near impossible for them to pull off successfully. But then they heard a tapping sound from the door before they heard the sound of buttons being pressed. Harry was ready for anything as was Allura but to their shock they heard a voice.
"Wait for the door to open before sprinting out. Once you're out I need you both to attack me, I have your Bayard and Catalyst take them and make your way out of this place." The voice on the other side ordered but Allura was skeptical.
"Who are you?" She demanded glaring at the door.
"To you I appear an enemy but in truth I'm a friend. I also have a drive with information you will very much need. Take it and it will lead you to more allies against Zarkon, the Blades of Marmora." The voice said to which Harry realized who this was.
"You're... a Galra." Harry said realizing this first hand.
"Yes... but we have little time the door is about to open make it look convincing." The soldier said as the two waited for the door to open. Harry knew not who these Blades of Marmora were but any help can be useful right now especially if its traitors and deserters from Zarkon's own forces.
Soon the door opened and in turn the two went at it and attacked the Soldier on the other side. They barely gave him time to react but by their perspective he let them hit him. Plus true to his word he had both the Bayard and Harry's wand to which he took both in hand. Allura found the drive in question and took it but after mental debate to which they began to make their escape before they were discovered.
"Come on we need to move now." Allura said knowing full well that their friends will be here to try and rescue them.
"On it." Harry said activating his Bayard and holding his wand at the ready over his Bayard which was in a defensive position. "But how do we get out?" Harry asked as this wasn't a warship for him.
"Godric is our only option you need to call to him." Allura said as Harry understood what she meant. "Focus on Godric and drown out everything else." Allura instructed to which Harry understood and got to it.
The two stopped and got to a hiding spot just as sentries passed by. Harry closed his eyes and focused on the Red Lion's presence and to his shock Godric was in the same system they were in. 'Godric… I need you...' Harry called to his Lion hoping for a response. The more he focused the more he felt the bond being stronger than before as if some blockage had been removed allowing Harry a deeper connection to Godric.
(Castle of Lions)
The Paladins were in there Lions waiting for the signal which was Godric as they all had video feed of Godric's lair. There was no telling how long they had until Zarkon realizes they were there and the suspense was killing them. Ron gulped a bit, Hermione bit her thumb, Draco flexed his grip on his controls, and Cedric tightened his grip on his controls.
Soon it happened the Red Lion's eyes flashed to life and Godric began to move. Soon the Red Lion roared out answering its Paladin's call and flew out of the lair. "He's loose launch!" Cedric ordered before the four other Lions launched after Godric.
(Space)
Godric took the lead as he was firing and bashing his way through any obstacles in his way to reunite with is Paladin. The plan was working thus far as it was simple, get Harry and Allura, form Voltron, and fight their way out of Zarkon's command system. Godric avoided the foes it could avoid while the other four Lions focused on keeping the fire off of Godric.
"Harry." Godric thought as he felt the connection.
(Harry and Allura)
"I hear your call and I'm coming, partner!" Godric was heard in Harry's mind who went wide eyed at this in response. Never had Harry actually heard his Lion talk save for roars and growls that he could easily decipher what they meant.
"Well?" Allura asked as Harry then smiled to Allura.
"The Calvary is coming." Harry smiled to which Allura knew what he meant.
(Zarkon Command deck)
"What?" Zarkon asked in shock seeing the Red Lion was flying on its own making a bee-line for his ship.
"That cannot be the Paladin should be dead by now." Haggar said seeing this.
"No... We were wrong..." Zarkon began before chuckling in amusement. "Such a resilient one that boy is." Zarkon said seeing Harry had managed to survive his ordeal by some act of miracles. "Mobilize security personnel and recapture the boy and the princess." Zarkon said to which the soldiers did as told and alerted security.
(Harry and Allura)
Allura and Harry ran down the halls of the Command ship, cutting down any Sentries and hexing any Galra soldier that was coming at them, with Allura picking up a blaster and fire out at anything that came near them as they soon reach a dead end as harry put up a shield while standing in front of Allura as she use the blaster to shoot from behind while she said, "There nowhere left to go."
"We need to hold out a few more ticks," Harry said as he point his wand out and fire out a wordless spell which knock out a few enemies but more show up, with Harry and Allura were back against the Corner as Harry felt Godric is coming to them, but didn't know how long they could hold out as Harry thought to his lion, 'Hurry Godric!'
(Godric)
Godric rush through the blockage of fighters with the other lions laying down covering fire, as well with his speed, the red lion was able to by-pass all the Galra fighters and look at the walls of the ship.
In the site of Godric, he saw a magical aura that acting like a beacon to him, as he roar out and went full speed while firing a superheated beam to weaken the hall, and smash through.
(Inside)
Harry was blasted back with his shield deactivated and Allura went to his side quickly and held up the blaster, preparing to make her final stand against the Galra, unaware of what is coming, as the Sentries came up with their weapon pointed at the couple, until-
*Crash/BOOM!
The sentries were now paper weight with any soldier were ether knock out or died from the impacted of the red lion, as air was slowly being pull out into space, Harry recover and saw who it was as he smile and said, "Godric!"
The lion opens its mouth as he said to Harry, 'Get in quickly!'
Harry nodded as he stood up and grab Allura as both her and him rush to the red lion mouth and rush in as the mouth quickly closed securing both the princess and his paladin.
(Command Bridge)
A Galra troop saw something pop up on his screen as a red alert ran out as the Galra said to his General that was nearby, "Sir, the hull's been breached. It's one of the lions."
"Focus fighters on that Quadrant," the Galra general said as the soldier nodded and send an 'Attack' order to the Galra fighters, as Harry and Allura may be in for a fight.
(Red lion cockpit)
Harry was in his seat with Allura holding tightly behind him as he grab the controls and said, "Hold on tight!"
Allura nodded as Harry pilot the red lion out of Galra command and soon face against a force of Galra fighter, with Harry tighten his grip as he saw this and didn't know if he can do this, as suddenly Godric said to him in his mind, "Don't waver, believe in my power and fight alongside me. WE are strong together."
Harry relax his grip to that as what Godric said to him is right, as they are strong if they are together, and he give a nod and said, "Alright Godric, show my your power."
Suddenly the red lion controls glow out brightly as Allura is in 'Awe' as she saw this, as she can figure, Harry is putting in strength to the red lion himself.
(Battle)
Godric roar out as soon enough appearing on his back a huge cannon like weapon appeared, as the barrel of it glow with energy and soon fire a huge beam as which destroy all of the Galra fighters that were in front of them in one shot.
Godric wasn't done as he then began to fly back and regroup with the other Lions before they were all gathered together just as the cannon began to vanish from Godric's back.
(Ron)
"Blimey Harry your alive!" Ron cheered clearly happy to see Harry was alive and well.
(Draco)
"About bloody time!" Draco said before realizing the cannon on Godric's back that was vanishing. "And how the blooming hell did you get a bloody cannon like that?!" Draco asked as he wanted one also.
(Hermione)
"We don't have time we're shoulders deep behind enemy line." Hermione said knowing full well they had to get out of here fast.
(Cedric)
"She's right Harry do you have the Princess?" Cedric asked to which Harry responded to this as he and Allura appeared on his screen.
"She's safe and secured." Harry responded looking to Cedric.
"Ok then lets blast our way out of here. Form Voltron!" Cedric ordered knowing it was time to form Voltron Defender of the Universe.
(Forming Voltron)
Black Lion roared out as it flew forward with its arms folding into the needed sections. First it folded backward before folding into the container units and once secured Black Lion began to take on a more humanoid look. Then Green and Red Lion flew in as they flew upward leaving behind a trail of energy in there colors as when they did their legs began to fold up and secure themselves to form the arms of Voltron as once they did they flew off to continue the formation.
Next up was Yellow and Blue Lion as they flew in and began to fold up their legs to be secured and become more leg like themselves as once they were secured they now looked more like legs. They were now ready for the finishing touches as they got ready to form up with their prides leader the Black Lion. Red Lion attached first as once it was in the socket a connecter shot out and not only secured the arm but also made sure it was usable as this caused the Red Lion to extend a bit to be the right arm of Voltron.
Green Lion was the next to connect as its back shield was now the shoulder pad for Voltron as once Green Lion was in the socket the connection was made and secured in turn allowed the arm to extend a bit to better form the arm like with Red Lion. As this was done Green Lion roared out. Once this was done Blue and Yellow Lions began to form the legs as when they did it was shown that once the Black Lions rear legs were inside Blue and Yellow Lions it began to seal up to both connect and secure the connection as once it did and both legs were secured the transformation was almost done.
Now that the body was formed Black Lion's head was now ready as the yellow eyes then flashed as the maw opened up as first the crown formed and in turn the maw opened up to reveal the face of Voltron as soon Voltron formation was done. When the formation was done Voltron then crashed the mass of Red and Yellow Lions before splitting them apart while a current of energy went through them. Voltron then struck a pose with legs and wings spread and the right arm pointed upward before releasing a burst of Quintessence that formed the Galaxy behind it in turn as Voltron was ready for battle.
(End formation)
Voltron had taken the stage and charged through the Galra ships to make its escape from Galra. Voltron had more fire power but they had to use everything they got since this was Zarkon's main HQ and most of all back to safety. Voltron activated his boosters and proceeded to make its escape through the many Galra ships standing in their way.
(Zarkon)
"Emperor, Voltron has formed and is trying to make an escape our perimeter." Prorock said as he looked to Zarkon.
"Engage the Solar Barrier immediately. Attack!" Zarkon ordered to which Prorock understood.
"Yes, Emperor." Prorock replied with a small Galra salute acknowledging the order.
(Battle)
From Galra's HQ a barrier began to form as it used the main base as the source of the barrier and began to spread all over the sector. IT began to form a dome of sorts showing the barrier would keep Voltron trapped inside till it was brought down.
(Command)
"Thace, Scramble the fighters!" Prorock ordered meaning to send in their best to take down Voltron.
"Yes, Commander." Thace the Galra who managed to send for aid to get the Paladin and Princess out responded to his Commanding officer. As the ships began to deploy Zarkon looked over to Haggar knowing this was all going according to his plans save for only the most minor and insignificant of hiccups. "Haggar... it is time." Zarkon said to which Haggar bowed to him in response.
(Battle)
As Voltron attempted to fly away the Paladins plus Allura saw what was happening outside. "What the bloody hell is that?" Ron was heard asking as even Hermione was at a loss for words.
"I don't know, but I hope we can figure out a way out fast." Hermione said knowing there were basically rats in a cage right now.
"Watch out there about to fire!" Allura warned them from her spot next to Harry inside Godric.
The Galra cruisers began to fire their ion cannons upon them to which Voltron began to bob and weave through the laser blasts. Voltron then slammed its right arm into a ship causing it to tip down from the force of the attack and the weightlessness of Space. Voltron then slammed down the Green Lion Arm both arms now stabbed into the Ships haul.
(Cedric)
"Form Sword!" Cedric ordered to which Harry responded by slamming his Bayard into the Bayard Port before turning it just like before.
(Battle)
Godric and Rowena roared out allowing the sword to form between them through an energy current. Voltron then responded by drawing out the sword just enough so he had a good grip but the blade would still be stabbed into the ship. Voltron then grabbed the sword with both hands and activated the thrusters before the sword ended up slicing through the Galra ship like a hot knight on butter.
Once Voltron was through the ship exploded into a large ball of fire thus taking down on of many ships that stood in their way. Voltron wasn't done as he then proceeded to charge a ship and stab the sword into it. Voltron then pushed the thrusters to full might before managing to push the ship into another one. The hull could only take so much before it managed to hit another one but by then Voltron managed to destroy three cruisers for the price of one powerful attack.
As Voltron flew through the air it was Draco who noted more problems coming for them. "Bloody hell we got more coming this way!" Draco called out as it was true for many Galra Ships were seeing firing off there ion cannons at them.
(Cedric)
"Form Shoulder cannon!" Cedric ordered to which Ron got to work.
Ron roared out and jammed his Bayard into its power.
(Battle)
Voltron formed the shoulder cannon and once he took aim fired off the spread shot to which they managed to destroy all those cruisers at once. It didn't end there though as Voltron then aimed for the barrier and fired it off again with a focused singular blast only to see the barrier strand strong against the beam attack.
(Paladins)
"Bloody Hell that barrier is powerful?!" Ron called out as Hermione ran the numbers.
"We won't be able to break through with the cannon not this deep behind enemy lines." Hermione noted seeing they were stuck now.
"Well I'm open to idea." Draco said as he did not want to die here today.
"We need to destroy the barrier at its source." Allura spoke up from her spot next to Harry.
"So we need to damage Zarkon's ship till we hit the barrier." Harry finished off to which it seems he and Allura had the same idea there.
"Ok then Paladins turn around we're going for Zarkon's ship." Cedric ordered knowing full well they had to take Zarkon out of play here.
(Battle)
Voltron once more drew forth the Sword with a lions roar after calling off the Cannon and glared at Zarkon's massive vessel. Voltron then flew straight for the heart of the Empire ready to do some damage to it to shut down the barrier. "There's Zarkon's ship!" Cedric called out knowing they had to cut off the barrier or risk handing over the Lions to Zarkon.
Voltron was about to go in for the attack to hopefully free itself of the barrier trapping it. But then all of a sudden just as Voltron was about to stab its attack halted as a flash of Zarkon's image was seen by all within Voltron. In fact Voltron stopped completely as the sword vanished while everyone struggled to get free.
"What's going on!?" Ron asked trying to get free somehow.
"We lost the sword! Something is malfunctioning!" Harry called out trying to get free as well.
(Castle of Lions)
"What's happening?" Coran asked as he saw this on screen.
"Something is happening! Voltron's froze up!" Draco called as Sirius and Remus were wide eyed by this.
(Harry and Allura)
"Oh no." Allura said realizing what was going on instantly... the secret she kept from the new Paladins.
"Cedric!" Harry called out hoping their leader must have something to get them out of here.
(Cedric)
"I can't hold it." Cedric called out trying to keep it together but to no avail. In fact Orion had gone silent completely for Orion felt the call of his true original Paladins the one he had chosen so long ago.
But Orion won't lie... he has grown fond of these new Paladins but his loyalty and honor would not allow him to betray his Paladin despite how far he had fallen.
(Zarkon)
Zarkon was floating as the Druids were firing energy at him through his armor where it appeared port points of sorts were located taking the energy into himself. 'You're a fool to bring Voltron here.' Zarkon thought knowing that through the Black lion the Paladins will be forced to submit to him.
(Battle)
Voltron began to glow brighter as the flow of Quintessence was disrupted thus the Lions could not stay together. Orion of course felt guilty but until the time came that one of the two Paladins was proven the most worthy his loyalty was in question between the two. 'I'm sorry.' Orion was heard from within Cedric's mind before the Lions split apart.
Godric, Rowena, Alita, and Gladiolus were still moving but Orion was limp and unmoving. "What the Bloody hell was that!? Something just tore us apart!" Ron called out trying to figure out what just happened there.
"I don't know, but we have more important problems to worry about. Look!" Draco was heard as soon an entire armada was coming their way.
"Somehow... I think we just walked into a trap." Harry said realizing that they basically played right into the Galra's hands.
Galra fighters began to fly torts them to which Godric, Rowena, Gladiolus, and Ariel went on the offensive yet Orion was still silent and unmoving. It wasn't long until Zarkon's ship began to release an energy that resonated to Orion and began sucking the Black Lion into the ship.
In the battle Gladiolus fired his beam at a Galra ship causing destruction to it just as Rowena flew by. The Green Lion fired a beam across the haul leaving a burning trail in its wake causing an explosion signaling the possible hit on something highly combustible. She then pulled off on the beam just as the ship began to explode and flew off to rejoin the fray.
Nearby Ariel fired off her ice beam upon Draco's command and froze multiple Galra Ships at once. Godric then flew in and fired off his beam weapon destroying two of the ships while Gladiolus shattered one by head-butting it. But then Gladiolus was hit by another shot knocking him off course before managing to regain itself.
Gladiolus then looked and saw the many ships flying their way to which Ron was wide eyed at this. "Bullocks there's no end to these blokes!" Ron called out realizing they were outnumbered and out gunned.
But then a powerful beam attack was fired off hitting the Galra ships and causing it to explode from the attack. It was none other than the Castle of Lions firing off the attack hitting the ships in one powerful attack.
(Castle of Lions)
"Coran and friends attack!" Coran cheered as Sirius and Remus were helping him with the beam weapons trying to give the Paladins cover fire. "I've waited ten thousand years for this!" Coran cheered further as he had been waiting for this moment.
(Back with Cedric)
Cedric was still struggling to get free from his ordeal as he tried to command Orion away from whatever was drawing them both in. But nothing he tried worked and in turn Cedric was running out of ideas to try.
(Godric)
Godric flew through space firing off its beam weapon in an attempt to get them through this. But it wasn't until Harry had Godric fly torts Cedric hopefully to provide some aid. "Cedric are you ok?" Harry asked as Allura still stood next to his seat holding on as the battle progresses.
(Cedric)
"Something is overriding the controls! Orion is not responding!" Cedric called out trying to get Orion to move somehow but then screamed out as he felt something attacking him and Orion on a more metaphysical plain as he still tried to regain control.
(Harry and Allura)
"Cedric is in trouble we need to go after him." Allura said knowing how bad this will be if Zarkon manages to acquire the Black Lion.
"I'm going in!" Harry called out and flew torts where Orion was being taken.
(Cedric)
Cedric cried out trying to regain control but he wasn't strong enough. Thus in turn he heard the voice unfamiliar to him but somehow he knew who it was. "You cannot fight it. Your connection is weak." Zarkon said through some sort of mind link.
Then to Cedric's shock and horror he saw the controls come back to life but not as he knew them. This time it was all in Galra as the Galra Empire's crest appeared on the screen. In fact it was all in Galra now and just before Cedric could try again he felt his seat pulled back hard.
(Outside)
Orion opened his maw and spit out Cedric into open space as the Paladin began to tumble wildly through space. Cedric quickly acted and activated his jet pack to try and slow his tumble. But it seems to be a short response as soon Cedric hit Zarkon's ship on his back breaking his jet pack in response. Cedric quickly got his grip secured and looked up in horror as Zarkon was taking the Black Lion Orion.
(Ron and Gladiolus)
"What do we do mates? Our Plan isn't going as… well Planed!" Ron said, getting worry about all this as they cannot escape, Voltron is down, and surrounded in every direction.
(Cedric)
"I'm going back for Orion, but you guys need to figure out a way to shut down that shield," Cedric said as he pull out his wand it try to blast his way in.
(Castle of Lions)
"Then in the meantime we're provide covering fire from out here… just the three of us… against an entire fleet," Coran said while Sirius is showing Remus how to use the turrets while firing upon all the fighting's around as Sirius said, "It's not like we can't handle it for a while, but it like we're might die if you don't hurry."
"Sarcasm isn't your strong suit Sirius," Remus said as he fire upon the Galra fighters and destroy some of them, while hundreds more took their place.
(Cedric)
Cedric fire his magic at the ship again, but it barely making a dent in it as he said, "I can't bust through the head quarter ships hall I may need assistants."
Suddenly as the Red lion came up as Harry voice spoken in the coms, "I think I got something for you then!"
The red lion spit out the Galra Gauntlet out towards Cedric as it impaled, thankfully still remain intact after that, into the side of Zarkon main ship near Cedric as he reach up his hand and stick it in there activating its laser function and cut a hole through the ship as Cedric said, "Thanks Harry."
Cedric went into the ship and started his way back to Orion and try to get it back before Zarkon can retrieve it.
(Battle)
Godric was then seen firing more lasers out against the Galra fighters as it held precious cargo in the form of Allura.
(Godric)
"Harry we need to get Orion back before Zarkon can get his hands on him." Allura said to which Harry already knew.
"I'm on it." Harry said as seeing as the Red Lion was 2nd in command Harry took command for a bit. "Everyone keep the Galra fighters occupied I have something to do." Harry said before Draco was heard on the communication.
"What!? We have to stick together, Potter. What are you doing?!" Draco demanded out knowing Harry was off his knockers for this.
"He's right Harry you and Godric have Allura right now." Hermione confirmed looking to Harry. "What can you possibly do at this point?" Hermione asked to which Harry glared a bit.
"Whatever we can." Harry said to which Allura agreed and placed her hands over his.
"Floor it." Allura confirmed to which both saw they had a similar yet reckless idea.
(Battle)
Godric went full speed ahead and began chasing after Orion. For Harry he was the seeker and Orion was the Golden Snitch thus for Harry it was like a life or death variant of quidditch. So it was no surprise to anyone save for few when Godric rammed into Orion knocking him off the path to Zarkon so hard that Orion ended up embedded into Zarkon's ship.
Zarkon glared upon the fool who would stand against him and he knew one thing was for certain. If you wanted something done right... do it yourself.
(Cedric)
Cedric hid behind a wall with alarms blaring around the ship. Right now he had to get to Orion and from what he was hearing Harry bought him time by crashing Orion into the ship. If Cedric can make it to Orion's crash site before Zarkon does they may be able to escape but they needed to keep Zarkon busy for it to work. Cedric then came from behind his hiding spot and assaulted to Sentries taking them both down with ease by use of his Gauntlet. Once he did this the two sentries laid motionless before Cedric took one of their rifles for his own use.
(Zarkon)
Zarkon's armor began to release steam before it in turn began to come undone. The Cape and armor fell off freeing him from his suspended spot in the Druids Ritual Spot before he began to fall down to space where he quickly began weightless. Zarkon then activated his rocket boots and flew torts Orion even flying pass Godric in turn.
Once he was there Harry saw him to which he already knew who he was.
(Harry and Allura)
Harry and Allura glared at the Tyrant before them as Harry knew already who he was. After all he and Allura did meet him in his throne room when he had both of them captured. "Zarkon." Harry growled to which the communication lines was still active.
(Castle of Lions)
"Wait what?" Sirius asked hearing this and just then Remus, Sirius, and Coran all saw him Emperor Zarkon himself. "Ok... I take back what I said old Snake Face has nothing on this bloke." Sirius said as even the beast inside Remus felt fear.
"Harry, get out of there, now! Zarkon is too powerful for you!" Coran called out his warning knowing that Zarkon was on a whole different league here.
(Harry)
"This is our only chance to put an end to the Galra Empire! We have to take it now!" Harry called out feeling some sort of primal force driving him to fight Zarkon and by this feeling it felt like Godric agreed.
"Take the shot Harry!" Allura called out to which Godric was even more for it.
"Vengeance for my fallen Paladin!" Godric called out through his and Harry's link.
(Battle)
Godric's eyes flashed to life and in turn fired his beam weapon at Zarkon. The beam trailed up torts Zarkon and when it hit him an explosion was seen while the Red Lion flew past it. But then as the smoke cleared Zarkon stood back up unscathed as in his hand was a shield of sorts but the shock didn't stop there.
The Shield then transformed to their shared shock into a Bayard though darker looking then the others it put a dead ringer on which Bayard it was. Zarkon glared at Godric or more importantly Harry as he held his Bayard at the ready. "You may have a Lion, but its power is weak in your fledgling hands." Zarkon said before the Bayard transformed into a curved sword. He then proceeded to slash it in a spin slash creating an energy wave that managed to hit Godric dead on.
(Harry and Allura)
Harry and Allura cried out in shock when the attack hit Godric but luckily proving how much of a natural pilot he was Harry took control and regained their balance.
(Battle)
Godric glared at Zarkon with hatred in his eyes for the crime Zarkon had committed against him, his pride, and his former Paladin. "You cannot stop me." Zarkon began while glaring at Godric and its new Paladin. "The Black Lion will finally be returned to its original Paladin." Zarkon said as Harry's rage was peaking now. Zarkon then charged forth in attack at Godric with his Bayard activated into a large Axe weapon.
Harry on instinct acted quickly unaware of what he was doing. "PROTEGO!" Harry invoked the shield charm and in turn Godric produced a magical energy shield that defended him from the attack. Zarkon was surprised by this as he jumped back in shock and glared at the Paladin. Alfor could never do something like that with the Red Lion... this boy may prove to be a good work out for him.
(Hermione)
"Did you all just see that?!" Hermione asked in shock at what she just saw.
(Draco)
"Potter used one of his spells with the bloody Lion!?" Draco called out but it was RON who would surprise them the most.
(Ron)
"Wait... if he could do that... why can't we?" Ron asked having an idea.
(Battle)
"Bombarda!" Ron invoked sending the explosion hex out to which Gladiolus fired it from his maw and saw how it destroyed multiple Galra fighters for the price of one.
(Hermione)
"Amazing!" Hermione cried out realizing what this meant. "Due to our bond with the Lion we can use them as foci for our spells." Hermione said realizing what this was. "The Lions are able to use our Bayard's to form weapons in combat, and each have their own unique weapon if Godric's cannon is anything to go by." Hermione explained as her mind ran through all the data. "But if the lions only gained the ability to use our magic because of us then that would imply Voltron must somehow possess an evolutionary ability allowing it to grow stronger with each new Paladin that takes the mantle of the Lions." Hermione said having some sort of epiphany.
"Um in English Granger." Draco said as Hermione had lost both him and Ron.
"It means the implications of this ability are mind blowing astronomical." Hermione said as there was no telling how powerful the Lions and Voltron were capable of becoming.
(Castle of lions)
"Save the study for after Ms. Granger we still have a great deal of problems to deal with." Remus said but he won't lie when he says even he was deeply interested in such an ability.
(Meanwhile with Cedric)
Cedric was seen running into what he saw was a hanger as he made his way to where Godric had crashed at. But as he was halfway through the large room he soon heard the doors slam shut behind him causing him to panic a bit with a gasp. As he looked to the door he soon heard a new voice causing him to get nervous further but he held his ground regardless. "So, this is the, would be Paladin." Came the voice of Haggar to which Cedric's view was pointed torts her.
"Who are you?" Cedric asked taking a defensive stance in case of trouble.
Haggar simply raised her hand torts Cedric just before an energy formed in them. "Haggar." She said as it was the simplest thing on earth and fired off her attack.
Cedric dodged out of the way of said attack and activated the Power Glove. After he rolled to a stop he dodged at Haggar and went for the attack but she dodged his attack ease by teleporting away. She then began to laugh as she appeared behind Cedric only for his next attack to go through her revealing it to be a fake. Soon multiple Haggar's began to appear all laughing a maniacal laugh at Cedric with each bit of laughter overlapping each other.
(Space Battle)
Rowena was seen flying around her attackers with her tail pointed out from behind her. "Reducto!" Hermione called out her spell causing the Galra fighters to be blasted back by the Blast Back Hex fired from her Lions tail.
Rowena then flew off just as Gladiolus flew by helping with the attack as Ron noticed how many there was.
(Ron)
"Ok most of our spells work by using the Lions as a focus... I wonder if Stunners work the same." Ron wondered before he decided to go for it trusting Gladiolus.
(Battle)
"Stupify!" Ron was heard calling out firing off a stunner to which Gladiolus roared out firing off a small ball between a, group of Galra fighters. It then hit one and in turn hit the others shutting them all down in one fell swoop.
(Draco)
"Blimey what was that?!" Draco asked but it was Hermione who knew what it was instantly.
(Hermione)
"I don't believe it our Stunners through the Lions become EMP's!" Hermione called out but Draco was lost.
"Um EMP?" He asked wondering why Hermione would say that. "You mean Emp?" He asked but Hermione sighed in response.
"It's not like OWL's or NEWT's an EMP isn't a test like those but an acronym for Electro Magnetic Pulse. On Earth the reason most technology doesn't work around magic because it's theorized that magic released an Electro Magnetic Pulse so when its used around technology or a technological item is used in a place with high influence of magic it short circuits and shuts down." Hermione explained managing to multi-task while explaining the information.
(Harry and Allura)
Harry and Allura cried out as Godric was sent flying about from the attack as Harry cursed himself seeing Zarkon was kicking Godric's tail. Allura then went wide eyed as she saw her earing going off as she heard Cedric crying out in pain no doubt in a battle. "Cedric must be facing Zarkon's witch." Allura said to which Harry heard this. "We have to go help him." Allura said as Harry thought about it.
She didn't have her space helmet with her so sending her out there with no oxygen was suicide... unless... she can apparate there. "Allura hurry take my wand." Harry ordered looking to Allura.
"WHAT?!" She asked with a slight blush at the implication.
"No that one the one I use magic with." Harry said to which Hermione overheard him.
"Harry what are, you doing?!" Hermione asked seeing what he was planning.
"Not me Allura she's going to try her hand at apparating." Harry said to which Hermione was wide eyed at this as was Allura.
"Ok but where is she going to apparate to?" Ron asked to which Harry smirked a bit while having Godric avoid another of Zarkon's attack.
"Over to you Ron Gladiolus has the toughest armor so she'll be safe there while you two go save Cedric." Harry said but Allura had her objection.
"Harry I don't think my Altean ability will work with your magic!" Allura argued but Harry looked to her.
"We have to try something to keep Orion away from Zarkon." Harry argued to which Allura saw he had a point.
"This is reckless you know." Allura said conceding defeat and finding his Holly Wood Phoenix Core Wand in the armors built in compartment.
"I know." Harry said to which Allura got ready for it with Hermione providing instructions.
"Ok just don't leave a part of myself behind." Allura said as she was in another tense situation and quickly got ready. The spell's use was simple enough from what Hermione explained. One must focus intently on the desired location they wish to go to and for Allura that was Gladiolus cockpit. It fell down to three D's of sorts Destination, Determination, and Deliberation and seemed straight forward. She must be completely determined and willing to get to the destination in mind but do so with deliberation which was caution. Unfortunately she had no time for caution so she only had the first two to rely upon.
Then with a wave of the borrowed wand from Harry and the intended spell the Quintessence inside her sparked to life and thus she vanished with a pop leaving Harry able to focus on Zarkon.
(Gladiolus)
Ron was so focused on the battle that he heard a large pop going on and thus he yelped before looking and seeing Allura had made it. Allura liked a tad bit green but no doubt it was due to the effect of a first time use of Apparation. "I don't think I'll ever adjust to that." Allura said almost hurling out her lunch prior. She had done this spell with Sirius and still she had yet to grow accustomed to it.
"We have other problems right now, Princess." Ron said as Allura got her wits about her again.
"Yes, Ronald ram Gladiolus into the ship's hull... right there." Allura said pointing to a spot on it to which Ron was worried but agreed none the less.
"Got it." Ron said knowing they had little time for Hermione to pull off her hacking skill.
(Inside Zarkon's Ship)
Galra sentries were just running their rounds as normal unaware that Cedric had broken into the ship. The only noticeable thing that had happened for them was the battle going on outside but so long as it doesn't manage to get inside HQ they simply did as they were programed to do. But then out of nowhere the hull was breached and from it Gladiolus head came through before the maw opened revealing Ron and Allura inside it. Ron had his Bayard active while Allura was holding Harry's wand close ready to go buck wild.
Ron roared out firing his Bayard off as he hit the sentries taking them down. "Get some!" Ron roared out as it seems Draco wasn't the only one who raided Hermione's room for her entertainment stuff. Alarms were blaring as the air began to be sucked out through the hole Gladiolus had made with his head.
(Command Room)
Alarm blared on the screen for Thace as he saw what had happened. "Sir, the hull has been breached. It's one of the Lions." Thace said to which Prorok knew what to do instantly.
"Focus fighters on that Quadrant." Prorock ordered to which Thace did as told... for now.
(Battle)
Fighters began to swarm in as Ariel and Rowena began to circle around Gladiolus who had his head stuck into Zarkon's ship.
(Draco)
"Great we have to cover Weasley's fat arse." Draco said as he and Hermione were the only ones available to do the job. The two then got to work to keep Ron covered while he and Allura went to rescue Cedric.
(Hermione)
"So much for this rescue operation of a raid." Hermione cursed as the plan had gone completely off the rails of its intended focus.
(Cedric vs Haggar)
Cedric kept his attack up on Haggar but he only kept hitting the fake ones. "We could make you strong. Why fight for the weak when it will lead to your downfall?" Haggar was heard to which Cedric went for the attack only to be blasted back by Haggar when he managed to find the real one.
Cedric cried out in pain as he was sent flying back from the attack where he tumbled to the ground. "We could make you into the greatest weapon in the Universe." Haggar said before her clones began to vanish and in turn she raised her hand against Cedric. She then proceeded to fire her dark magic beam at Cedric who then dodged the attack before charging at her. He didn't have time to cast any spells so he was forced to dodge and charge as Haggar kept firing at him.
Haggar then began to vanish into a cloud of darkness and just as Cedric was about to attack an arm shot out grabbing Cedric by the neck. The shadows vanished revealing another Cedric with glowing topaz colored eyed smirking a sinister grin at Cedric. "Regardless now, I shall kill you." The counterfeit said in a combination of Cedric and Haggar's voice while holding him up by his neck.
Soon the other Cedric began to laugh an evil laugh while releasing a dark energy and from it Cedric's body began to be covered in a dark slime like substance. As Cedric tried his best to get free it was for naught as the last thing he saw was the evil Cedric grinning at him before he vanished into the shadows.
Cedric soon found himself falling in darkness as he screamed out in shock and horror before he hit the ground hard. Luckily he was ok as he began to get back up groaning in pain a bit. He then began to hear Haggar's laughter in the shadows as he looked around for it in response. But then he saw a pair of familiar topaz colored eyes and from it he saw Haggar before she once more went for the attack on him.
(Harry and Godric vs Zarkon)
Godric fire another beam towards Zarkon, as the Galra empire raise his Bayard up as the blast hit him, the area cover in smoke, but soon disburse as shown, Zarkon had his shield up to block the beam with ease, but Harry wasn't done yet as he called out, "Reducto!"
The spell shot out as its hits the shield, pushing Zarkon further back, but did affected him as much harry is hoping for as Zarkon said to him, "You show great potential, more than Alfor ever had, join me and I will spare your fellow paladins lives."
Godric just roar out to that with Harry yell out with his lion, "We will never you, ever!"
Soon enough Godric leap at Zarkon, while he leaps out of the way with ease, landing on his feet soon enough with his Bayard turns into the energy katana again as he said, "So be it."
Harry shove the control forward as he is going to attack again with Godric helping along the way as this was their chance to kill Zarkon before he try to be a greater threat than before.
Godric make a mad dash towards Zarkon as Godric fire his beams, harry called out spell after them, but it seemed Zarkon prove to be a more stronger than either of them realize as he flew towards them and dodge the beams and spells like he sees them a mile away.
From the distant its show Zarkon swinging the Bayard weapon around creating powerful strikes, as when the screen went back to Zarkon, Godric landed behind him, very much hurt with Harry no doubt, feeling his pain as well, with Zarkon Bayard turns back to a normal... dark Bayard.
Inside the lion alarms were going off and harry grunt out in pain as he tries to get him and Godric back up, and look on screen Zarkon change his Bayard into a huge cannon, as he took aim with the cannon glowing as well before firing, releasing a focused beam that could take out both harry and Godric, but Godric recover and leap out of the way as the beam pass them, and hitting one of the rings surrounding the huge spaceship, destroying a part of that area as well when its exploded.
(Castle of lions)
The blast was seen from the castle as Sirius saw the beam and knew where it came from as he went to the calms and yell out to his godson, "Harry get out of there now! He's too powerful for anyone to handle."
"He's right, you need to get of there now!" Coran said as he didn't like the look of things right now.
(With Harry and Godric)
Harry panic a bit when he saw that beam hit the ring , blowing it up a bit as he turn back and saw Zarkon was flying towards him and Godric as he fire another shot.
Godric gotten out of there quickly as he could, dodging the blast just in the nick of time, as one more tick and that was it for them.
(Inside Galra HQ)
The Galra inside the huge ship felt the explosion hitting against the ship, shaking up the whole place, as they held their heads down.
(The battle)
Godric look down where they use to be, as Coran voice shouted through the coms as he said, "Harry, do you Copy?"
Harry wasn't listening right now, as well as Godric when he form his jaw blade as he, Harry, and Zarkon stare down each other, about to charge in with Coran said, "You don't know what you're dealing with! He's too powerful!"
(Inside Godric)
Harry is getting ready when Coran said, "Listen to me, it's imperative that you don't engage-
Harry shut off his coms as he didn't need Coran telling him what to do, as it seem Harry sense of safety and logic were thrown out into space right now, as he thrust all controls forward again.
(The battle)
Godric flew towards Zarkon, as the Emperor has his Bayard sword out again, as he swing it around before pointed it out towards the red lion and thrust out, as the Bayard weapon change into a chain snake sword weapon that flew right at them.
Godric managed to avoid each attack with ease with the jaw blade active. The weapon whipped at the Red Lion while Godric managed to avoid each attack due to his superior speed. At least until Godric flew upward and Zarkon managed to wrap his weapon around Godric's leg. Zarkon then proceeded to slam the Red Lion down onto the ship ignoring the damage his command ship was suffering from this brawl.
Godric was in a crater created from the attack as he was hurt bad limp. Zarkon glared at the Red Lion as it was down judging if it was time to finish this once and for all.
(Harry)
Harry looked up from his seat and saw Zarkon all the while his screen was flickering with alarms blaring around him.
(Battle)
Zarkon then proceeded to transform his Bayard into its sword form and got ready to take down the Red Lion and its Paladin. His boosters then activated before Zarkon charged at the downed lion dragging his blade across the ground as well.
(Harry)
But unaware to Zarkon Harry had an idea a reckless one but an idea none the less. It was actually pretty simple let Zarkon build up some speed and then blast him at point blank range. Harry won't brag but he's a good shot and even one with the worst of shorts can't possible miss at point blank range... unless you're a storm trooper.
Soon once Zarkon had built up enough speed Harry enacted his plan and quickly acted with a roar. "Come on!" He roared out ready to take Zarkon down once and for all.
(Battle)
Godric got hit feet back under him as he activated his cannon once more taking aim at Zarkon. Zarkon saw this but showed no signs of worry or surprise when it happened. Godric's cannon began to charge up before firing the weapon once more and forcing Zarkon to block the attack with his Bayard. Zarkon roared out as he was actually breaking a sweat here while he held his ground against the powerful beam attack. Zarkon then roared out more before managing to redirect the attack and thus hitting his command ships many rings for its solar barrier.
The attack caused a chain reaction taking out a large part of the ring with the shot as Zarkon had saw this and was impressed. The boy showed promise but it was a shame his loyalty was iron clad he would have made a good Soldier of the Galra Empire.
(Harry)
Harry was wide eyed as he saw Zarkon managed to deflect that attack as he knew deep down Zarkon wasn't going to give him a second chance to pull that off. "Quiznack." Harry cursed realizing where this was going to go next.
(Battle)
But despite knowing this Harry flew off to get some distance and began firing off his weapon at Zarkon. Godric's cannon trailed after Zarkon who activated his thrusters and flew around avoiding the beam until it came to a stop to prevent overheating. But since there was no body this meant Zarkon was still in this fight.
(Harry)
"Where is he?" Harry asked trying to locate Zarkon. Harry felt odd the more this battle progressed the more it did the more he felt the need an instinctive urge to fight to win. Now just out of some form of his duty but almost like it was some sort of sick twisted pleasure for him. He had heard how the Death Eaters enjoyed murdering and raping those born with magic but not to pureblooded families but this was different. It was fighting just for the sake of fighting combat for pleasure.
A part of him was scared that somewhere deep inside him there was a beast who desired nothing more than to fight without end. But right now he had other matters to worry about which was this fight against Zarkon himself. Soon Zarkon was heard catching Harry by surprise. "You fight like a Galra soldier." Zarkon said as for Harry that word struck a string for him. It would make sense in a way after all Galra lived for battle and bloodshed... but Harry knew he was human so there was no way he could be related to the Galra… right?
(Battle)
"But not for long!" Zarkon called our and rose up activating his Bayard once more. The Bayard transformed into a mace like weapon and a large one at that to which he managed to blindside Godric and knock him down with it.
(Cedric vs Haggar)
Haggar was heard laughing all around Cedric as he tried desperately to get her in hopes of finding the real one. His attacks all missed as they only managed to hit clones instead of the real one. But then the real Haggar appeared glaring at Cedric with a dark energy orb in her hand before she roared out and sent the energy orb at Cedric.
Cedric roared out in pain as he fell to the ground as he saw his injury and knew it would need immediate medical attention. Haggar glared at Cedric seeing he was down and knew it was time to finish this fight. "And, now, Paladin, your time is over!" Haggar said as he copies kept laughing around her at Cedric.
(Allura and Ron)
The two ran over to see the mass of Haggar surrounding a downed Cedric while Ron had his Bayard activated. "Bloody hell which one is the real one?!" Ron cried out trying to find the real one amongst this mass.
Allura squinted her eyes glaring a bit as her eyes focused on her foes. She saw all the clones were translucent showing they were not real... save for one who held a dark energy orb in her hand. The Real Haggar was charging at Cedric to which Allura knew she had to act fast or else they were doomed. "Ron, There! Fire!" Allura ordered and in turn Ron did as told.
Ron fired and in turn Haggar seeing this quickly teleported away to which the duo ran over to Cedric. "We have to get out of here!" Allura called out knowing they had to run fast.
"Wait where, is the scary witch?" Ron asked trying to locate Haggar while Allura helped Cedric run for their escape.
"RON!" Allura called out to which Ron was reminded of their current priority.
"Oh right." Ron said before running after Cedric and Allura knowing they had to get the hell out of here first.
(Godric vs Zarkon)
Godric was down and out of power, no doubt Harry feeling frustrated about all this, as he try to move Godric, but he wasn't responding as it seem they use up their power already, with Zarkon looking down at them as Zarkon said, "You fought well red Paladin, but this is the end."
Zarkon turn his dark Bayard into a huge execution like sword as it sparks with energy no doubt aiming for the cockpit to kill harry but keeping the red lion intact as he thrust forwards with his boosters going at max.
(Harry)
"Come on! Come on! Move Godric!" Harry said as he yell out as he move the controls, but everything was black out with a weak roar was heard from Godric as he said, "I'm sorry."
(Zarkon)
Zarkon was halfway to Godric when he felt a present near him and heard a mighty roar, as he turn an saw Orion up and operational with Cedric back in control as they fire a beam at Zarkon taking him by surprise and blast him into his ship as he cry out, while around him exploded.
Orion look down at Godric as he give a roar calling out to him saying, "Brother." while soon both him and Cedric flew over to help the lion and his paladin.
As Orion saw the damage both he and Cedric knew they were short on time and began to move fast. "I got you, mate." Cedric was heard as Orion grabbed Godric in his maw and began flying back to the castle of lions.
(Zarkon)
Zarkon rose to his feet and glared at the Castle of Lions as it tried to flee. The Black Lion was within his reach and the Paladins were trapped... but like he said Voltron was the key to ultimate power particularly the Bayard's on the Lions in question. The Lions weren't the only weapons Alfor had built and he knew it was the only rival to Voltron power in this and any universe.
The dragon would be unsealed and with it Zarkon would have no need for the Paladins anymore.
(Allura)
Allura placed her hands on the Teledov ready to get out of there via a wormhole. The Lions were loaded back up and right now escape was there primary concern. "Alright Paladins time to get out of here." Allura said as she tried to open a wormhole, key word being tried.
The wormhole would not appear and seeing this Ron appeared on screen. "Oi! What is going on! I don't see a bloody wormhole!" Ron called out not wanting to stay here any longer then they needed.
"The Galra barrier is jamming our ability to create one." Coran called out as Sirius and Remus saw one.
"Working on some sort of bypass now." Remus said hoping a Portkey may do the trick one he had been working on with Hermione via letters.
(Galra Command Deck)
"Send in everything we've got! Corner them!" Prorok ordered knowing they have a chance to capture Voltron. After all he like many knew the paladins and everyone else have no other place to go now.
It seem the Galra Empire will be victorious, or so they will think. For as while soldiers followed their orders but somehow Thace was missing.
(Meanwhile Barrier Generator)
A Galra soldier was walking torts a sentry as he held a dagger in his hand. A dagger made of the same metals as the one Harry was given on Earth. As the wielder made his way to the Sentry it noticed him and leveled his rifle at him.
"This sector is of limits." He began only to be stabbed in the neck by the weapon and pinned to the wall. The wielder then opened the door revealing the generator room.
The sentry monitoring the computer never saw it coming as the weapon was thrown at its back where it was stabbed in and in turn killing it. The weapons owner ran over to the computer and began typing in codes and commands for some purpose. He then pulled a level and in turn beginning the desired effect.
(Battle)
"We're surrounded mates!" Sirius was heard calling out knowing they may be done for. But then something happened surprising everyone. The solar barrier began to fluctuate and weaken before it in turn vanished completely.
(Shield Generator room)
The weapons owner seeing his work done grabbed his dagger to avoid leaving evidence before he sheathed it revealing it to be Thace himself. Thace knew Voltron was the universe's last hope and he had to do everything he could to help them escape. Just as his ally said... the Blade of Marmora will be with them.
The Galra soldier saw the shield is gone and the paladins were now free, as now he is hoping they can escape now without any other problems, as he turn and reach down for his weapon, pulling it out of the Sentries before leaving like nothing has happen
(Castle of Lion)
"What just happened?!" Hermione asked as she appeared on screen in the command deck when the barrier vanished.
"Who cares!? Make a bloody wormhole now!" Ron called out as he appeared on the screen next.
(Battle)
The wormhole opened up as the Castle of Lions began to fly torts it but when they all thought today a success chaos followed.
(Galra HQ)
At the bottom of the headquarters where Zarkon once stood as he connected with the black lion, the witch Haggar build up her magic and about to fire something at the castle to make sure the paladins won't escape so easily.
(Outside)
Black lightning energy shot forth around the castle and at the wormhole as it turn from blue to red before the castle was fully in and the wormhole soon vanish from site, unknown what the crew was soon gonna see.
(Inside the wormhole)
Everything seem corrupted as the tunnel was red, while shooting out energy around and no one knew what was happening.
(Cedric)
"Coran what's happening?" Cedric call from Orion as Coran appeared on screen as he yell out, "The integrity of the wormhole has been compromised. It's breaking down!"
"What does that mean?" Draco asked with Hermione came on next as she says, "We may be looking at a new term of Splinched, and have no idea where we are heading into at the end of this wormhole as well."
Everyone felt a huge impacted that effected everything as they held their heads down and brace themselves.
(Lion hanger)
The black and red lion were inside the castle and soon were being pull back out of the castle and into the unstable wormhole, as both harry and Cedric yell out being flung out of the castle.
(Outside)
Everyone was hear screaming as chaos struck. Each of the Lions began flying out of there lairs and flying into the wormhole due to being unsecured. Godric and Orion went one direction unto the energy tunnel, Gladiolus and Ariel went another direction, it was then followed by Rowena's tumble into the unknown, and finally the Castle of Lions flew off course being left behind.
By the end of this no one could tell what was to come.
(TBC)
(Start Omake)
Inside Haggar's lab the entities were moved to larger containers with equipment attached. Inside the large containers were two figures with wires attached to them and a breathing apparatus on their mouths. Both were nude but were in fetal positions. One was Galra but had some snake like appearances added in. He had pointed ears found on some Galra but it seemed to be more rounded like a human.
The other pod held a female figure but her hair was longer with a mix of red and violet. On her cheeks were fang like marks yet it seems she had human DNA inside her as odd as it seemed.
All was silent all was still until movement began. Their bodies began to twitch inside the wombs of Quintessence going outside of notice beyond the monitors observing their heart rate and brain activity. Then there eyes began to open and from the Male crimson eyes were seen and the female a combination of yellow, green, and violet eyes were shown.
(Scene Break Later)
The pods were opened as the two figures donned their new uniforms of the Galra Empire. Nearby Haggar and her druids observed the two new life forms before she approached the now clothed duo.
"I am happy to see you two had awoken." Haggar said but it seems the Male was on to her.
"Spare us such things and tell me who..." he began but then noticed something off about himself. "Wait... who am I?" He asked trying to locate his identity but could not locate it for the life of him.
"Actually I share your confusion... who are we or what are we?" The female asked as then the Male went wide eyed to this as a name appeared in his mind one name, Salazar.
"You are Fala." She began looked to the female.
"Fala... that is... my name?" She asked looking herself over.
"Yes your new life... and you are." She began as she looked to the male.
"Salazar." He cut Haggar off looking to her. "I am Salazar Enigma." Salazar introduced himself choosing to name himself as once he was seen in the light to many who would know it he looked near identical to Tom Riddle whom Harry had faced in the form of his Diary and whom Dumbledore had once been a teacher to.
"Very well then Salazar." Haggar said unaware of what this creature she had just unleashed was truly capable of. "For now though more testing will be required I hope you two are prepared." Haggar said hoping one of them will prove to be the greatest weapon the Empire had ever produced.
"Of course." Salazar said but already his mind began to calculate and so far only one line of thought came prominent to him. To be powerful by any means necessary for here Haggar had created more than a weapon... she created a warrior one who would ascend and become a dragon.
(End Omake)
ESKK: Well end of the chapter now for the following chapter the season 1 post credit ending. And if any of you remember my announcement for Super Robot Wars… then I'm sure you know what it is. Anyway I'll see you all real soon and as I always say on these things ja-ne.
