Genesis Defender Voltron
ESKK: Well here we go new chapter and after this chapter we will at last be at the stunning climax of the Two Part-er the Blitz. Let's begin this chapter folks.
(Start)
*Insert Gundam Seed Opening 2: Invoke
In the deep vacuums of space there was destroyed ships floated about from a recent battle between the Alliance and the Galra. In this place a silver cross floated about as before it passed by the Castle ship known as the Wunder as it seemed to be slightly damaged but still operational.
Soon the music began to pick up as Voltron appeared before it began battling the Galra forces before it met with Lotron and the two clashed blades with shields and swords out. Soon the two knocked each other back before Voltron struck its famous pose as the shield return to being wings as the title appeared.
"Genesis Defender Voltron."
-Sure chikai isokgu tabi ni butsuke ai chigire au-
The screen began showing the Paladins of Voltron plus Rei as they also showed Mari, Tabris, Lotor, and Dorma as they were in a ruined city of unknown origins.
-tagai no hane no itami kanji te iru-
The screen then showed Yuliana and her other self Yui followed by Shiro, Misato, Coran, and the Bridge Bunnies of NERV. It then changed showing the Galra higher ups of Zarkon, Ritsuko, Haggar, and Gendo who the later of witch was hiding in the shadows observing them.
-samishisa ni yogore ta ude de daita-
The screen then showed Lotor's generals and Sincline as they were battling Alliance forces as it was clear they were attempting to attain victory. Sincline had a sadistic grin on his face enjoying the act of battle as he wanted more fighting more bloodshed. The screen then showed the Lotor, Tabris, and Dorma with their Wolves as they seemed conflicted as the same could be said for Sincline and Fala but it was their wolves showing confliction instead of the pilots. It also showed them doing ground combat with their Galra Bayards as it then showed Fala and Rei fighting as with Mari and Sincline.
-sore igai no nani ka wo shiranai kara-
The screen then showed the Paladins of Voltron in their lions fighting Galra forces as well as performing ground operations with Bayards blazing as Shinji's Bayard soon turned from its original form to an Altean's Broadsword.
-Tsunagaru shunkan mezame Ru eien machi kogareru-
The screen soon showed the silhouette of Voltron the red, blue, and black Lions as Shinji, Asuka, and Allura met before seemingly nude as it almost looked romantic between them. It was ten followed by Lotron but before it Lotor and what appeared to be Mari were meeting before it as Mari and Lotor were embracing each other almost like lovers.
It was then followed by flames as Fala and Rei pointed their guns at each other in battle and then met with the images of Shinji and Lotor as children crying before following it up by the two meeting in battle and then Voltron and Lotorn mimicking their movement. Soon it showed the three Voltrons with their weapons as it was clear these titans were ready for battle.
-haya sugiru toki no-
The screen began to show the three teams forming their robots as Voltron and Lotron were forming.
-matataki ni sara sare te-
The screen then showed a quick image of the Lions, Vehicles, and Wolves doing battle against their enemies as it flashed between the forming of the three titans as it was clear this was war.
-Hitori de wa todo ka nai-
The screen then showed Shinji, Lotor, and Mana standing up as with them Voltron, V-Voltron, and Lotron stood up with them. But then it focused on the three as the rest of the Paladins and Vehicle Team appeared as with Lotor was Tabris, Hikari, Rei, and Mari but with the two teams all dressed in Dark Knight uniforms as with them the NERV Crew and Galaxy Alliance appeared with them.
-negai nante kie sou na kotoba ja-
The image then showed images of Allura looking outside the window and at the asteroid field where Altea once stood which brought tears to her eyes at the last of her home world before Yuliana put a hand on her shoulder to comfort her. It then showed Asuka with a new Bayard form similar to a chained Sickle attacked to a Kusarigama but the chains on it was retractable giving Asuka both a whip and grabbling weapon and a slashing weapon even if it appeared to be a Galra weapon in origin. Following Asuka up was Rei as she stood in a crossroad between what looked like Altea and Daibazaal as she was looking at herself but as an Altean and herself as a Galra before it changed to a battlefield with her holding her Bayard weapon.
The screen then showed Hikari as she was in a dark room naked with her arms wrapped around her legs as they were the prosthetic right arm and left leg as sitting behind her was Dorma. The darkness soon made way for Hikari's world horribly mixed with Dorma's as both were trying to figure out who was who and which memory was real and which was fake. The screen followed up with Mari in a battle field with a rifle as she fired at any Galra that tried to get the jump on her from behind cover as with her was Lotor and Tarbis who the later had taken a more human life form.
The screen then showed Allura and Asuka laying on nothingness in space giving the image of a yin and yang symbol as the think linking them was their pinky fingers with a red threat on said fingers.
-karami au netsu no tsutae tai shin jitsu wo-
The scene was now showing Voltron fighting hit way through Robeasts and Angels as soon Lotron appeared as the two were once more fighting against each other.
-dare kara mamore ba ii?-
The screen then showed V-Voltron flying in as its five pilots were ready as behind them was the Vehicle Teams flag ship as the Vehicle Team flew at the Galra threat.
-Kimi ga itsuka hoshi gatta omoi ga-
The scene then changed to the three ships that acted as the flag ships for Voltron, Lotron, and V-Voltron as they began to prepare for launch. The Paladins, Knights, and Strike Team all raised their heads ready for battle as it focused on Shinji, Lotor, and Mana as they were all ready to launch.
The five teams then launched before flying in formation and forming Voltron, Lotron, and V-Voltron as they flew straight at the Galra armada before them. The battle was short before the three flew straight at each other disengaging the formation with a burst of Quintessence.
-Soko ni aru nara-
Soon the screen showed the three warriors of the universe with their carrier ships and most of all the shadow of the mysterious Genesis Defender Voltron standing behind them all as the song then ended.
(Start Galra High Command)
Haggar was looking upon herself in a reflection made by magic as she felt her face as though her hands were a violet color of a Galra her skin tone of her face was different. Upon her face her Altean marking now became prominent as she saw herself... as an Altean as she felt her face. Then in the image she heard laughter like two little girls laughing, playing, and studying just being normal children as she saw this. "Y-Yuliana... Little Yuli?" She said to herself trying to wrap her mind around this as she felt something was off.
Soon footsteps were heard as Haggar quickly put her hood back on as it was Fala who had entered. "High Priestess... you are needed." Fala said as she had been studying both magic and Altean Alchemy from Haggar while Fala herself had already achieved a leadership role faster than even Lotor or Tabris had achieved.
(Down the hall)
"I have continued the interrogation of Throk and found he does not recall what had happened considering Lotor and I agreed to assign him to the Yulitha system to guard an EVA Dr. Akagi and I had been developing with you for Project Hagarrium." Fala said as she walked with Haggar giving her the updates. "Throk does not seem to recall everything but memories can never fully be banished there will always be remnants for us to claw out so I ordered them to continue the interrogation as ordered until he either recalls everything or he dies." Fala said as she was showing she wanted results nothing more.
"But it does strike me as odd that the exact base I had placed that EVA was attacked when I ensure that only Dr. Akagi, Lotor, Dorma, Tabris, and I were aware of its location." Fala said as she knew exactly what was going on she just needed to really dig her victory in until it was impossible to remove.
"I see good work Fala." Hagar said as Fala smiled to her.
"I live to please." Fala said as that was partially a lie as she lived to please only herself. "Anyway I was given no other option but to have Lotor hold onto both Green and Blue Wolves for me until new pilots can be chosen I hate to say but the wolf has completely rejected me I can no longer pilot it which the silver lining is that it allows me to focus on Project Hagarrium." Fala said as Hagar looked.
"Soon Lotron will no longer be needed especially if Lotor's vision of this, Genesis Defender Voltron holds merit." Hagar said as they couldn't risk such a thing appearing.
"Don't worry as it stands the Wolves won't, choose anyone wherever Lotor is currently hiding." Fala said as he smirked unaware that GABRIEL Was listening in on them through his spy network. "I also am expecting updates on our new EVA's from Akagi we should receive results soon on them." Fala said as Hagar nodded.
"Good make sure that we have a battalion of EVA's ready to present to Emperor Zarkon as well as whatever control matrix you will need for them." Haggar said as Fala nodded.
"As you command." Fala said as she knew real soon Haggar will be answering to her.
(Scene Break Ocarion)
The Wunder had landed back in its castle form as from the bottom a familiar landing ship detached as once it landed it opened to reveal a group of large aliens as Maya began to walk in with Yuliana. "Ok folks this way so you can all get sorted out." Maya said as she helped guide the refugee's to where they needed to go as Asuka swore they were bigger then sumo wrestlers. Once they were out Coran gasped for air as he was stuck in the middle of it all.
Ocarion was a peaceful jungle like planet as it was famous not only for its amazing scientists but also for the fact the Coalition originally formed on this planet as Coran looked to them. "Is that the last of them Coran?" Allura asked as the Paladins of Voltron were gathered.
"That should be it a few hundred more souls looking for a new home." Coran said as Shinji nodded to this.
"A few hundred more allies in the fight against the Galra." Shinji said as he smiled as Misato agreed to this.
Soon a roar was heard as Shinji knew which Lion it was as he smiled a bit to see Yuliana walking in with Black Lion on a carrier truck as she guided the truck over. "Good because Black Lions personal upgrades are now complete." Yuliana said as Shinji looked to Black Lion wondering what was different about it.
"Ok what changed about it?" Allura asked as Shinji saw Black Lion seemed to be running on a robot equivalent to sugar and caffeine from their thoughts no doubt adjusting to the upgrades given to it.
"Remember Evangelion Unit 1?" Yuliana asked as Misato arrived and heard this and went wide eyed.
"You didn't." Misato gasped as Yuliana smiled to this.
"Yes I did, Black Lion now has its own S2 Core fully functional and fully derived and energized by Quintessence making it self-sustaining." Yuliana said as Black Lion in response roared out to the new upgrades worthy of its prides leader. "Plus seeing as Black Lion already has its own soul we don't have to worry about the incidents involving untested EVA's." Yuliana said as Misato was skeptical but she went with it as any new tech would be useful.
"So I'm guessing it can make its own AT-Field now?" Misato asked as she looked to the Black Lion.
"Yes it can." Yuliana said as Maya had stars in her eyes at this as Shinji looked to it.
"So when do I test it out?" Shinji asked as he wanted to see what Black Lion can do now and also wanted to help Black Lion burn off the excess energy. Soon ship engines were heard as everyone looked and saw Alliance ships arriving as with it the new Vehicle Carrier as they came in for a landing as Yuliana and Misato smiled.
"Seems the Vehicle Team has arrived." Yuliana said as she then looked to Misato.
"Don't worry I got it I'll go meet with them, mingle, and help them set up so we can focus on the Blitz." Misato said as she took her leave a tad bit faster than normal.
"Translation she wants to get some from Shiro." Asuka joked as Kensuke and Toji snickered at this as Shinji and Allura rolled their eyes at Asuka's comment.
(Meanwhile Galra High Command)
Zarkon was being suited up with his new battle armor as after his battle with Voltron he needed it to also preserve his own life as the damage done to him was extensive. Once the helmet was equipped to him the eyes turned on as did the lights on the suit showing Zarkon was now ready to once more rule his empire.
Zarkon was soon sitting upon his throne as soon Fala, Ritsuko, and Hagar all walked in as Ritsuko kept her distance behind Fala as she was meeting Zarkon face to face now. Once they arrived within a set distance they kneeled to him as Ritsuko was informed prior on how the Galra culture works around here.
"I am pleased to see you back on your throne again sire. I'm afraid Lotor has not taken being heir to your throne seriously in your absence my lord." Hagar began as Fala then spoke next.
"Vast stretches of territory has been lost to both Voltron's, the Alliance, and a growing group of insurgence." Fala said as Zarkon heard this as he glared down upon them.
"Haggar, your decision to place him on the throne was ill advised. Perhaps Fala would have proven a better choice." Zarkon said as once he had cleared his rage from the fact there are three Voltron's now and taken comfort in knowing they had one of them he could see how Fala had logically been able to lead the empire when Lotor had disregarded his duties. "But No matter. I have returned it is time to relieve my wayward son of his duties." Zarkon said as Fala nodded.
"Then I shall contact him to come to us." Fala said as she smiled to Zarkon.
"No do not trouble yourself with that Fala." Zarkon began as Fala looked to Zarkon. "For now you, Dr. Akagi, and Haggar will focus on Project Hagarrium I am expecting a battalion of fully operational Hagarrium fueled Evangelion's by the months end." Zarkon said as Fala looked to Ritsuko on this.
"Report then Dr. Akagi." Fala said as she nodded as she looked at Zarkon as the human scientist was dressed in a Galra uniform provided to her.
"Yes... well it's not a Battalion but we do have a Squad of fully operational EVA's ready and waiting for deployment." Ritsuko said as Zarkon looked down to her.
"Good... off to an excellent start then." Zarkon said as it was clear he knew the time it took to create EVA's and he wanted to give Fala a challenge to see if she can complete them all within the month.
"But a Battalion of Hagarrium fueled Robeasts are ready and waiting for your command." Fala said as Zarkon smirked under his helmet.
"Very well. I expect a list of all of them by the days end. Dismissed." Zarkon said as the three then nodded and took their leave knowing things were about to change soon.
(Scene Break Back of Ocarion)
"So this is your team's base huh?" Mana was heard as she Maria, Mayuri, Sumire, and Hideki all walked in as Midori was with Shiro as she was a backup pilot just in case something happened to one of them.
"Well this is quiet the set up." Maria said as Mayuri nodded shyly as the Paladins were showing the Vehicle Team around.
"So I guess this is where all the magic happens?" Hideki asked as he looked around as Sumire knew a command deck when she saw one.
"Yeah this is the Wunder's main control room." Shinji said as he showed off the command deck.
"Those color coded seats is where each Paladin sits." Kensuke began as he gestured to his seat. "This tunnel here opens up to a zip line that takes us to our speeders which loads up into our Lions!" Kensuke said gesturing to his green tunnel as Asuka then sighed.
"There he goes." Asuka said as Kensuke was in nerd more right now.
"This here is where either Allura or Yuliana Stands and these little glowing pillars rise up and they then use Altean magic that links them to that crystal and the crystal powers the ship and they use these things called a Tele-dove and creates worm holes!" Kensuke giving an in-depth tour of the place.
"Should we stop him?" Shinji asked as Toji has known Kensuke longer then he has.
"No... Let him have this." Toji said as Allura chuckled at Kensuke's antics.
(Later)
"This is our training room it has invisible walls and you can fight robots." Kensuke said as the two teams were now in the training room observation room.
(Later in the holographic room)
"This is our cow!" Kensuke said as Mana all saw this as Asuka face palmed herself for this.
"How did you get a cow?" Mana asked as Mayuri was also curious about this.
"Long story short those alien stealing cows from farms isn't completely a cliché lie." Asuka said as that made sense as Asuka was just glad they had this old girl here so they can at least have milkshakes or smoothies when they were flying across space back to Earth.
(Later at the Kitchen)
"This is the Kitchen!" Kensuke continued the tour as they were soon at the Kitchen. "And this is where the food goo comes out!" Kensuke said pulling out the chord and firing the goo out torts Mayuri's mouth as she ended up eating it even if she didn't want to at first.
"Wow nice shot." Mana said as she didn't see that coming.
"Well how is it?" Maria asked as she looked to Mayuri.
"Its... pretty good." Mayuri quietly confessed as she found it oddly delicious.
"You mean, goo-d." Mana joked as Maria then sighed and face palmed herself on that one.
"Ok dropped the ball on that one Mana dropped the ball." Maria said as Hideki and Sumire watched the group.
(Scene Break one tour later)
"Ok and this is the lounge where we just hang out as Voltron Paladins and stuff." Kensuke said as he sat on the chair as soon the door opened revealing Kaji as he was holding a tray for everyone. "Hey everyone I brought celebration Milkshakes just to welcome you all fresh from BisonQueen." Kaji said as he had the tray in his hand as Allura then vanished and reappeared with the Milkshake in her hand enjoying it big time.
"Hey Sky Girl funny thing about Altean's they don't get brain freezes seriously I saw Allura, Coran, and Yuliana gulp an entire milkshake down in one go and didn't even flinch, Wonder Girl is no different even if she is part Galra, but Shinji he can handle it longer the any normal human." Asuka said as Mana began top picture the image in her head.
"Kaji here has been handling a sort of spy network and corresponding with Gabriel on a regular bases as well as myself." Sumire said as she jumped into the conversation. "He's actually an excellent spy with that flamboyant Casanova persona of his." Sumire said as Kaji chuckled a bit in response.
"Coming from the famous 'mother of the military,' that means a lot." Kaji said as Allura was enjoying her milkshake as clearly she really loves it even if she has no idea how to make a milkshake.
(Meanwhile Dorma Lotor's Ship)
Dorma had acquired access to Dorma's private files though illegal methods mind you but it was worth it. Dorma had made sure she was on her own personal frequency and went far to ensure she wasn't tracked or monitored even going as far as shutting down her implant with a micro EMP the size of her quarters to shut down any and all spy or listening devices. Once her computer was back online she began accessing Fala's files and found what she was looking for.
"Ok Search Hikari Horaki." Dorma said as she put in the command and in turn found two matches to it. Dorma pulled up the first match and saw what looked like a psycho evaluation sheet. Dorma read through it and began to go wide eyed the further she read as she saw that this was a report on the method of mental rewriting, brain wash through mind break. Dorma even pulled up the other file and began to see the video evidence. She saw Hikari on screen crying and begging for who torturers to stop as Dorma had enough self-control to keep herself at bay.
Dorma began to hyperventilate as she began to get flashes of the incident as it seems she was going through a sort of panic attack as she her cybernetic arm reactivated as she began to panic. Dorma then roared out and punched her screen with her right arm now glowing as she then began to calm down after what she saw. "N-no this can't be right." Dorma told herself as she held her head in shock before a new voice was heard.
"Is it?" Came the new voice as Dorma went wide eyed as she looked and to her shock saw Hikari Horaki there but in an Orange EVA Plug Suit as she looked to Dorma.
"Intruder!" Dorma yelled but Hikari then vanished and appeared next to the alarms.
"Don't bother... they can't see or hear me." Hikari said as she looked to Dorma while holding her arm which seemed to have returned.
"If that's true then why can I see you?" Dorma asked as she glared at Hikari as she then gestured to Dorma's medicine on the table that had been left untouched. "If I had to guess right now we can't tell who is who and without those medicine your or our mind is trying to repair itself." Hikari said as she looked to Dorma. "As it stands... maybe I'm not the real Hikari but more than likely the Hikari your mind as Dorma is trying to portray as both our minds work on repairing themselves." Hikari said in a soft monotone voice no doubt paying proof to Hikari's theory as even she wasn't this smart.
"So our mind is our worst enemy then." Dorma said as she walked to Hikari and saw how her hand phased right through the phantom.
"In a manner of speaking right on point." Hikari said as she looked to Dorma.
"I... I need to." Dorma began as she began to try and wrap her mind around this situation as she was starting to learn her entire life her memories were all a lie.
"A mind is a terrible thing to lose isn't it." Hikari said as she was now sitting on the bed next to Dorma. "Beside don't we need to help oversee the construction of the ships while keeping guard detail on both the Blue and Green Wolves?" Hikari said as she looked to Dorma as Dorma knew she was right.
"Very well." Dorma said as she got up and took her leave and saw Hikari was now following her as she saw no one in the ship took notice to the human girl on board.
(Meanwhile with Lotor in the Hanger)
Dorma arrived as she looked around the hanger and saw the Galra troops and drones working on the second ship made from the comet as she met up with Tabris, Lotor, Ezor, and Narti as she looked to the ship being built. "How goes construction my lord." Dorma greeted as she saw Hikari there sitting on the railing as she looked to Dorma with a smile.
"It's fully on schedule of course I was forced to send a percentage of our ores to Fala for her secret project she has yet to divulge to me." Lotor said as Fala was very untrustworthy.
"That I can agree on something about Fala isn't right." Tabris said as she wanted the lance and a small amount of the comets ores sent to her and went as far as threatening to reveal this to Zarkon to get the ores.
"Plus Fala went as far as leaving both Blue and Green Wolf here now the question is why." Lotor said as he knew no one on the crew has been hearing any strange howling as of late.
"Yes... why." Dorma said as she nursed a headache hiding it under a pondering posture as more of Hikari's memories were starting to resurface.
It was then that Acxa arrived as she looked to Lotor and Tabris. "My Lords a message from Central Command Emperor Zarkon requires your presence immediately." Acxa said as Lotor and Tabris heard this.
"Very well prepare a ship." Lotor ordered as Ezor was concerned about something.
"Do you think he's on to us?" Ezor asked as she looked to Lotor.
"No my father is simply ready to return to the throne he can have it." Lotor said as he looked to his crew as did Tabris. "Our plans have been met with minor changes thanks to Lotron but the end result has not changed." Lotor said as Tabris then stepped in.
"But we best be prepared Zarkon may all but demand we relinquish the Wolves to him." Tabris said as Lotor understood this.
"Exercising caution is unlike you brother." Lotor said as he was concerned.
"Correct... but with Fala involved it be best we exercise constant vigilance around her and those she is involved with." Tabris said as for now they would leave the wolves and Bayard's here.
"Cover story 51 then?" Lotor asked as Tabris nodded.
"Regular systems check and exercise run, yes." Tabris confirmed as they needed to keep Zarkon away from the wolves and perhaps arrange for them to get taken.
"Narti come with us." Lotor ordered as he then left with Tabris as after Narti bowed to them she followed after them. "The rest of you oversee construction we shall return shortly and until then Dorma is in charge." Lotor said as Dorma saw this was her chance to possibly call for 'help,' on her situation.
(Castle of Lions BisonQueen room)
"Hello." Allura greeted as she looked to the cow.
"Hope we're not interrupting." Coran said as he looked to the cow as well.
"I don't believe we've been introduced. I'm princess Allura and this is Coran." Allura greeted as Coran nodded.
"Pleasure." He greeted as they both wanted more milkshakes from the Cow. "Quiet lovely in here." Coran greeted as he looked to the improve barn they had set up for the cow. "So how do you find living on the castle with us Pleasant I hope?" He asked as the Altean male gave a smile unaware that BisonQueen was scheduled for a look over by Yuliana soon as the cow then mooed in response.
This of course was met with an awkward silence from them as the door soon opened revealing Yuliana as she saw them. "What are you two doing here?" Yuliana asked as she looked to the two.
"Oh Yuliana!?" Coran and Allura cried out as they saw her here.
"Um..." Allura stuttered as she looked like a little girl caught by her mother with her hand in the cookie jar.
"Let me guess Milkshakes?" Yuliana asked as she looked to the two as they nodded. "Ok well I'd show you how to get it but BisonQueen here is due for a checkup old girl needs to be healthy while in space." Yuliana said as she looked to her and petted the milking cow. "But here is word to the wise... she's a girl cow so she will need to be milked." Yuliana said as she began to set up the tools needed for her checkup as she was taking over Ritsuko's old medic spot as well.
"Oh..." Allura said unaware of this milking thing.
"Look come back later once her checkup is done and I'll show you and everyone how to get milk from her." Yuliana said as she figured the two Altean's need to learn this soon like she did when she lived on Earth.
"Understood!" Coran said as she and Allura then smiled to each other as more Milkshakes was one medical checkup away for them before zooming off to pass the time as Yuliana then looked to BisonQueen.
"Well BQ time for the normal checkup, also... sorry about them they don't know much on Earth animals and considering your well... situation you may be better off in space" Yuliana said knowing the damage 2nd Impact had done to the animal population.
(Scene Break Galra High Command)
Tabris, Lotor, and Narti walked out of the ship they took and to the door but when it opened Narti's cat hissed as when the door opened Hagar was there to greet them. "Welcome Prince Lotor and Prince Tabris. Please follow me." Hagar said as something was up here. Lotor and Tabris made sure to keep their guard up before they went to follow her to the throne room.
(Later at the Throne Room)
"Father it pleased both me and Tabris to see you make a full recovery." Lotor began as Tabris and he kneeled before him.
"You look stronger than either of us had ever." Tabris began only for Zarkon to cut them off.
"Silence." Zarkon ordered as the two did as told. "I did not bring you two here to waste time with your flattery." Zarkon said as the two nodded. "You are both relieved of your duties effective immediately." Zarkon said as Lotor was wide eyed as Tabris saw this but was accepting of it.
"Lord, do not discard us let us stay by your side." Lotor begged as he stood up as Zarkon looked to them.
"Your short reign shall be regarded as a black spot on the Galra Empire for years to come." Zarkon said as he glared to them as Hagar stood by Zarkon's side.
"Of course my attempts at ruling the universe seem feeble in your incredible estimates but perhaps if you were to train me I could learn." Lotor said as he looked to Zarkon as Tabris saw how Lotor had strived for his father's approval much like how Shinji had to Gendo.
"You are both no longer needed." Zarkon said as he glared at them. "A worthy successor has already appeared." Zarkon said as soon Fala appeared from behind the throne smiling sinisterly at them as Lotor and Tabris were both wide eyed at this as the appearance was clear. Fala was next in line now and by the looks of it Zarkon had already begun training her with incredible results.
"And pardon for my abrupt interruption you are to send the Wolves to Galra High Command father shall be taking over Black Wolf while I shall be taking Red." Fala said as she knew if Blue won't submit to her then Red will.
Lotor and Tabris then both stood up as they looked down as Lotor felt exactly how Shinji felt when he piloted the EVA for his own father as Lotor began to see even more similarities between them. "As you wish." Lotor said before he took his leave as Tabris then spoke up.
"We shall have the wolves delivered to you in the coming week we are currently having them undergo a system check and a field exercise we shall have the efforts doubled to ensure they are met to your specifications." Tabris said before he took his leave as it seems Zarkon now wants Lotron if he cannot have Voltron.
As Lotor and Tabris left Fala and Haggar both saw something was amiss in this as unaware to them Lotor and Tabris both smirked to this Lotor more than Tabris as Tabris saw that Lotor was starting to locate his path with the aid of the Black Wolf.
Hagar and Fala noting something was wrong decided to voice their concerns on this. "Something is amiss with both Tabris and Lotor I sensed a powerful energy around them when they entered something ancient." Hagar said as Zarkon glared to them.
"They are no longer my concern." Zarkon said as Fala began to voice her own objection.
"I do not mean to overstep... but I've learned that you never underestimate a foe or a possible threat I believe it would be best to have them both closely monitored especially since I have reason to believe some of my private files have been hacked." Fala said as she was actually fully aware someone was hacking her files and the trace from her private computer to a flash drive had traced it back to Lotor's ship. 'It seems Dorma is starting to revert no doubt her memories are starting to resurface and the fact she has not come in or requested a refill for the drugs she's starting to become aware.' Fala thought to herself knowing she needed to keep her scenario on point for as long as she can.
Zarkon saw Fala's point and this held truth both in battle and in politics. The fact that Zarkon had underestimated Shinji and Yuliana when they met was proof of that. "Very well." Zarkon said as he glared at where Lotor and Tabris had made their exit.
(Later at the Hanger)
The trio began to take their leave as Narti all of a sudden stopped as she felt something or someone was watching them as even her cat took notice to this. The two looked up and saw Hagar glaring down at them as some unknown exchange was occurring. Narti began to here hushed yet dark whispered in her mind as it was like she was in a trance and soon Hagar's eyes began to glow as with this Narti was under her spell.
(Later)
AS the trio flew in Lotor's private ship Lotor and Tabris knew something big was happening. "Run the protocol to search for Trackers." Lotor ordered as Narti did so with her cat guiding her to it as Tabris did the same. "Transfer the dynamics and run that protocol again." Lotor ordered as he saw this was too easy. When Narti did this she found it as she had it show to Lotor as well as she found a tracker.
"You think you can fool me witch? Destroy the bug." Lotor ordered as Tabris did so instead by sending an energy pulse across the ships haul.
"No wait..." Tabris began as he took note again. "Narti transfer the dynamics through every system and run the protocol." Tabris ordered as Narti did so.
"Why do this?" Lotor asked as Narti worked.
"When you're a spy master like myself Lotor you learn to look underneath the underneath and with Hagar and Fala both involved." Tabris trailed off as Lotor saw what Tabris meant.
"I see." Lotor said as soon five more bugs were found small ones at that as Tabris saw this.
"Well played Fala... but not good enough." Tabris said das he then had all the bugs removed using different energy algorithms for them. "We may need to look deeper to see if any of us were physical hit with a small bug we cannot leave anything to chance with Fala now next in line." Tabris said as they both knew if Fala succeeds the throne then they were all in trouble both enemy and ally alike.
"Understood brother." Lotor said as they had to be careful.
(Meanwhile with Dorma)
Dorma began to type in the coordinates of the ship and how to track it as she made sure Fala was not in control. "Are you sure this is a good idea?" Hikari asked as she was sitting on Dorma's desk watching her work as Dorma ignored the phantom of her mind. "You know what I'll take your word for it." Hikari said as she watched Dorma work as she forgot they both shared their minds at the moment.
"Right now we need to get both Blue and Green Wolves off this ship if my hunch is right Fala may already be aware of our plans and if she's aware Zarkon will be as well and when Zarkon becomes aware he may very well send the entire Galra fleet to our location we will need allies before that happens." Dorma said as she then went wide eyed and face palmed herself. "Great I'm, completely losing my mind." Dorma said as she saw she just answered to the phantom of Hikari Horaki her mind had created.
"Don't worry it will get better soon." Hikari said comforting Dorma who chose not to answer and kept working.
"Now let's hope the Paladins receive this." Dorma said as she began sending it to them on an encrypted line that she hoped they can crack.
(Scene Break Castle of Lions)
The two teams went their separate ways to explore the castle a bit as right now we find Kaji, Toji, Kensuke, Maya, and Sumire gathered in the lab as this was where Kaji coordinates his spy network and where Maya, Yuliana, Kensuke, and Rei would handle the more scientific part of their work. "Hmm this is quiet an excellent network you have here Kaji." Sumire said as she looked to Kaji.
"Yeah I was able to work with the rebels after I had helped a few of them and got into contact with a few through Shinji and his crew to help build this up." Kaji said as Sumire was impressed.
"Well you adapt well." Sumire said as she looked to Kaji.
"Yeah it's expected from a triple agent." Kaji said as he was basically leading an entire network of spies to nail the Galra fast and hard. "Plus it seems I'm not the only one who has adapted." Kaji said as she looked to Maya as everyone did so as well as Maya noticed.
"What?" Maya asked as Kaji chuckled.
"Nothing just wondering when you will try and ask Yuliana out to see if she plays for both teams." Kaji said as Maya looked and blushed as Kensuke then laughed a bit.
"I wonder if Shinji-man will have both a mom and a step mom soon." Toji laughed a bit as it was no secret Maya was very interested in those of the same gender as herself.
"Anyway Kensuke was the one who handled the technical stuff with Rei and Maya, Toji handled the heavy lifting and well viola." Kaji said gesturing to the screen before them.
"Well believe it or not I built up a bit of a network of my own." Sumire said pulling out a Rebel data card involving Galra movement. "A lot of them owed me a favor and with this if we can combine it with the set up you guys have here we may just end up with the greatest Anti-Galra mining operation set up in this or any reality." Sumire said as Toji heard this.
"This one time... we went to another reality we decided we'd never go back there again." Toji said as Sumire looked shocked at this.
"Trust me it's better not to ask." Kaji said as it looked like Kaji and Sumire were flirting at the moment.
"That's good because I will be needing it." Came a familiar voice as they all looked and saw Rei walk in in her Blade of Marmora uniform as she walked in.
"Rei!" Kensuke cheered as he saw Rei walk in as she dropped down a file card.
"Hello Kensuke-kun." Rei greeted as she showed the file.
"What brings you back Rei?" Toji asked as he was jealous that Kensuke got his girl while Hikari was still trapped in Dorma.
"I received this information when I was monitoring Intel with the Blades." Rei said as she looked to them. "It's encrypted but I do know it came directly from a Galra source with a method that it was meant to look normal enough other Galra soldiers wouldn't take much heed to it but enough to show that the sender wanted it to be found by the one it was intended for." Rei said as she put the file on the table. "Luckily I was able to receive permission to bring it here after we were able to decipher parts of it for I believe it may actually be coordinates that may lead us to the Lotron's wolf's current location." Rei said as Lotron has not been seen for some time now.
"Then we better get to work then." Maya said as no one needed to be told twice as they had to take the risk if it was what they were looking for.
(Meanwhile with Shinji, Asuka, Allura, and Mana)
As the four teen started up the Wii game system with a bunch of other system hook to it as it seem it very difficult to hook up any game system to alien tech, as they were thrown together with the help of Yuliana to do so.
The four teens were having fun with the game as Allura said, "Why does this game seem to be so odd, so colorful and the track is strangely done, is that a mushroom?"
"That Mario for you," Mana told her as Asuka had a smile on her face.
Playing as Peach ran over a power item and got a banana as she use it and drop in front of Shinji character as he was playing 'Mario' himself.
"I'm way ahead now, catch me if you can," Asuka said as she was way into the game as Mana look to her before her character which was Daisy as she ran over a power item and it was a golden mushroom as she use it and became super big as she ran over many other racers and soon ran over Asuka as the German Galra girl yelled, "Hey!"
"Don't hate the player, hate the game, as it gave me a boost in this race," Mana said as she was doing well reach close to first place.
Allura move the controller as best she can, as she played Rosalina and ran into a red box in hoping get a power item, only to get stunned by it as it was a trap instead, as Shinji pointed out, "Try hitting the blue boxes, the red ones are a trap."
"Thank you Shinji," Allura said as she hit the next one she could as she took a turn and soon got a power item which seem to be in her best favor as it was bullet bill power item, as she use it and suddenly her character change and flew pass all other racers with mana and Asuka eyes widen to that as suddenly she pass them and soon came driving up in first.
Shinji smile and said, "Great job Allura you took first."
"Oh my, I really doing it," Allura said as she was enjoy the game well as the girl eyed her as they keep their focus on the race itself and try to get a power item to knock Allura out of first, as Asuka gotten some green shells, and Mana gotten a single red shell.
As the girls fire them all at Allura as the alien princess heard the alarm on her controller as she asked, "What that sound mean?"
She soon found out as the shell came at her and hit her dead on, as two girls pass her as they gave an evil laugh of their own.
"Better watch out princess, you just lost first," Mana as Asuka added, "Try to keep up alien girl."
Allura had her game face on now as she got her character back on track and try to catch up to the two girl as they were fighting for first, Shinji coming up in four and gotten a power item which was… The blue wing turtle shell, as he use it and it flew to the girls which they were going head to head, the turtle shell came on top of them both as they say, "Ah-oh."
The shell soon slam into them and stun them very much with Allura driving pass with Shinji following and then they soon cross the finish line as the game as only a 3 lap short race to get Allura use to the game as whiles went off as on screen says-
"Winner player 3!"
Asuka and mana are shock as they were beaten by a noob, as Allura look surprise as she said, "I did it? I won?"
Shinji give a smile as for him he just playing a game for fun and said, "Good job Allura."
Asuka and mana throw a small fit, as Asuka throw her remote and said, "This game is rig."
"My controller was sticky," Mana said as watching from the door way as Yuliana watch this and give a small giggle to the scene as she said, "Seem Altean luck is better than most."
She knock on the door as everyone turn to her as Allura said, "Ah, Yuliana. Is everything done?"
"Yep, BisonQueen seem to be healthy, she ready for the milking as Shinji I would need your hand to do it if you can, if the rest of you would want to watch, come along Coran is waiting as well," Yuliana said as she walk out of the way as the 4 teens set their controllers down and got up as Allura was curious about this milking to make milkshakes with Shinji follow as it was his turn to milk the cow.
Asuka and Mana follow regardless as it was better than waiting for the Shinji and Allura to return with milkshake, and for Asuka she was a bit interested to see Allura's reaction to see where the milk comes out from really.
(BisonQueen room)
"Ok first off BisonQueen as her name implies is a girl." Yuliana said as Allura then realized this.
"Oh I see." Allura said as she looked to the cow.
"Apologies once more madam." Coran said as Mana and Asuka snickered a bit as they saw this as these two were flying blind on earth animals.
"And she's a cow so she can't understand you." Yuliana said as Shinji looked at the cow as honestly Shinji knew how to make the milkshakes and knew where the milk came from but had no idea how to milk the cow exactly.
"Oh ok communication issues." Coran said as Yuliana continued her lesson.
"Also chief among them she doesn't make milkshakes she has to be milked." Yuliana explained as she had past experience with cows she did run a farm sometime during the 15 or 16 century and again during the 17th century. "Shinji pay attention this might be useful for you later and you two let me show you." Yuliana said as she then grabbed the bucket nearby and got ready.
For Coran and Allura it was as if all of time froze as they saw this and were wide eyed at what they saw as when they say Yuliana grab the cows utters Asuka and Mana held back their laughter seeing the two Altean's reaction as for them it was priceless. Shinji always found the cows utters weird as did many not use to farm work so when Yuliana handled it with expert ease Shinji wondered if he had farming background in him somehow as all BisonQueen did was moo.
(One milking later)
The bucket was filled with Milk as Yuliana was holding two cups filled with milk. "Now then once the bucket goes through all the purifying things most condense milk goes through we can use it to make milkshakes but with this thickness it's like a milkshake right now." Yuliana said as Coran and Allura's reaction were that of utter horror and shock as the two looked like they couldn't get out fast enough. "Oh no you don't little missy!" Yuliana scolded grabbing Allura by her arm. "I won't lie I had the exact same reaction when I first saw it and let me remind you this is completely natural in fact your mother fed you off her own nipples from breast milk when you were just a newborn." Yuliana scolded as Allura was wide eyed at this.
"She's not wrong." Shinji confessed as he knew how that thing worked.
"Please stop." Yuliana said as she did not need to hear this for a second time in her life.
"Yes pregnant woman start lactating in preparation for their child so their child can start adjusting to the world outside the womb so it's completely natural plus cows even after their young is weaned off their utters keep producing milk which allows them to produce milk for humans to drink as well as sell it as part of its industry." Yuliana explained as she looked to Allura as she tried to cover her ears at Yuliana's explanation.
"Lalalalala I'm not listening!" Allura countered as Yuliana kept her explanation up as it was getting very in depth as Shinji, Asuka, and Mana looked.
"Should we leave them be?" Asuka asked as Mana shrugged.
"Probably Milkshake may be a bit delayed." Shinji said as it was starting to devolve into a talk about the bird and the bees as Allura is going through that talk the second time in her life.
(Scene Break Lotor's ship)
Tabris, Lotor, and Narti walked in after they had their bodies scanned for any possible bugs and found none... save for the fact Narti's cat is due for another space flea bath when they found a single flee on it. Ezor, Dorma, and Acxa saw the trio walk in as Dorma looked to their leaders.
"How'd it go? Are you fired?" Ezor asked as she looked to them.
"Good news or bad news first?" Tabris asked as he took off his headphones as he was listening to more Earth Music from its more cultural aspect as Lotor tried to give off that everything was ok even though both he and Tabris knew it wasn't.
"Well this one depends on how you view it I was relieve of my command yes." Lotor said as he intended that at first but with Fala in charge that was a different story.
"Please brother don't make it sound as if it was intended on our part, at first it was until Fala came into the picture." Tabris said as Dorma saw this.
"What happened?" Dorma asked as Lotor saw Tabris was worried and Tabris was almost never worried.
"My father is demanding we relinquish the Wolves over to him. We may need to transport them off of the ship before he finds out what we plan for them." Lotor said as he wanted to learn more of the vision he had seen prior.
"Genesis Defender Voltron correct?" Dorma asked as she looked to Lotor and Tabris who nodded.
"The second ship is complete and ready for testing." Acxa said giving her report to Lotor. "The sentries are just making some final adjustments to them." Acxa said as Lotor smiled as that was some much needed good news.
"Excellent." Lotor said as unaware to him or Tabris Narti was paying close attention to all of this.
(With Hagar and Fala)
The two were observing the event play out as they saw what was going on. "60% of the comets material has been used in the creation of the first to ships we will have more than enough for the creation of the third." Acxa said as Fala heard this and growled a bit.
"Well done Acxa." Lotor praised as Tabris saw this.
"Well played brothers you comet hoarders." Fala growled as she needed that material to create her Hagarrium based weapons for Project Hagarrium.
"No." Hagar cursed as Fala was right to monitor Lotor and Tabris before the two went to inform Zarkon of this development.
(Later Zarkon Throne Room)
"My lord somehow Lotor and Tabris had both gotten their hands on a trans reality comet." Hagar informed as Fala knew this was on her.
"What?!" Zarkon demanded as he heard this and was not pleased.
"And worse it appears he is building ships from the ore." Hagar informed as the second comet that was located was by pure chance which the Voltron Paladins tricked him to taking an empty powerless rock when they had syphoned the power straight out of the comet.
"I must apologize father." Fala began as she looked to Zarkon. "I had intended to use the comet for Project Hagarrium when Lotor had informed me of its existence. I was under the assumption you were made aware of it and it seems both I and Hagar were mistaken." Fala said as she kneeled to Zarkon. "The fact Lotor and Tabris has been hoarding it from me in secrets give me the reason that they intend to in fact use it against the empire with Lotron leading the charge." Fala said as she was using her 'blunder,' to further her own goals and with both Lotor and Tabris out of the way the path to the throne was cleared of any blood heirs.
"Might I suggest we strike first before they have a chance to use them?" Fala said as Zarkon glared and agreed with Fala.
"My thoughts exactly." Zarkon said as he stood up from his throne. "Mobilize the fleet. Hunt down Prince Lotor and Prince Tabris." Zarkon said as Fala smirked to this as her plan was coming together to the point that it no longer mattered if Lotor and Tabris survived this because as it stands there is no one in the Empire who can stand in her way to the throne anymore.
(Back at the Castle Labs)
Kaji, Sumire, Kensuke, Maya, and Rei were all working on their new program and deciphering the data as so far they had a good chunk of it deciphered. "I think we just about got it." Maya said as the screen then changed to show every, and all Galra movement in the known universe. Everyone cheered as Rei, Kaji, and Sumire worked on cracking the data.
"I can't believe it we're tracking Galra fleet movements almost live." Kensuke said as he grinned at this as he grinned. "And I think I got a few ideas how to expand our range." Kensuke said as then Toji yelped surprising everyone.
"Guys look at this!" Toji called out as everyone looked as Rei looked shock.
"Are those?" Kaji asked as Rei nodded.
"Yes coordinates, from Dorma." Rei said as she saw Dorma was helping them but why would she do it when she was loyal to the Galra Empire.
"Did Hikari break out of the Dorma mind control?!" Toji asked as this was almost too good to be true.
"I don't know." Sumire said as she then moved to another screen that seemed to be tracking something. "But somehow I think it may involve this." Sumire said as everyone looked.
"A scrambled message one impossible to crack." Kaji said as he saw it.
"Wait let me see." Rei said as Sumire then had the message passed over to Rei's screen.
"Hurry! Hikari could be in danger." Toji said as he looked to Rei.
"On it." Rei said as he began to type.
"Wait what are you doing?" Kaji asked as Rei worked.
"For every wave there is only partial transmission so if we invert it we can decipher the quantum encryption and tune the frequency to something we can understand." Rei said as she tried to dumb it down as best she could as Kensuke looked to her.
Soon once Rei put the program in they were shocked and happy they got a translation working for them as all but Rei cheered at this. "This is no time to cheer." Rei said as she shushed everyone as she then pointed to the screen.
"Members of the 7th, 11th, 12th, and 14th fleet assemble to rally point trox-lyte immediately. Engaged Targets at coordinates in next transmission. By Order of Emperor Zarkon." The soldier on the communication said as Rei then compared the coordinates to what Dorma sent them.
"Toji..." Rei said as everyone saw this. "Dorma is in danger and if she is in danger... so is Hikari." Rei said as they looked to the screen as Sumire and Kaji saw this as well.
"I've never seen troop movement like this before ever." Kaji said as Sumire saw this.
"Same here but what are they attacking?" Sumire said as Rei looked.
"Not what who." Rei said as she began to put the pieces together.
"Wait if Zarkon is back on his feet and Lotron is basically Voltron's only equal." Toji trailed off as Rei saw this.
"Seems he still hasn't given up his obsession." Rei said as they saw that this may be their only chance to get the Wolves and Hikari.
(Later Command Room)
Both teams and crew were gathered as Allura was the first to speak. "If they are truly attacking Lotor and Dorma had urged for aid we need to assist them and get the wolves out of there." Allura said as Rei looked.
"I agree this may be our only chance to get them back." Rei said as they couldn't pass up this chance.
"I don't like it, for all we know it could be a trap." Shiro said as Toji glared.
"And if it's not your going to let Hikari die!" Toji yelled as Shiro looked to him.
"I'm not saying that we just need to think carefully before running into a battle." Shiro said as Rei then spoke.
"Actually I have an idea." Rei said as she looked to the teams. "We can use this time for me and Mari to break into the ship use the attack as a smokescreen." Rei explained as she looked. "My ship has a cloaking field I can fly in with Mari undetected get into the ship and find the Wolves with Hikari. We get them and if they truly accept us we can use them to escape." Rei said as Shinji looked to her in shock.
"Rei that is extremely reckless on your part." Shinji said as Rei understood.
"Yes I know it's a small time window and the more we argue about it the less chances we have to retrieve it." Rei said as Yuliana was running the numbers.
"Well want to know the chances of success you all have?" Yuliana asked as she had ran the numbers.
"Please tell." Maria said as she looked to Yuliana.
"Yeah don't leave us in suspense." Mari said as she looked to Yuliana.
"It's the Oni variable." Yuliana said as Shinji and Misato remembered that one.
"I say... it's a risk worth taking." Misato said as they all looked. "We can use both Voltron's to provide a diversion long enough for us to get in get out and get success." Misato said as Rei nodded.
"As it stands if I die I won't be coming back but I will not allow this chance to slip us by." Rei said as she looked to them.
"I did apply a cloaking field to the Lions and the Vehicles and with Voltron's new AT-Field we can use it to help with that." Yuliana said as she looked. "Ok but we need to be fast." Yuliana said as she looked to them.
"Ok then let's get to the Lions and Vehicles." Shinji said as Mana nodded.
"Come on lets go." Mana said as she took charge of her team as well.
"Finally some action." Maria said as she was ready to roll out.
"Right behind you." Mayuri said as she followed after her teammate to the Vehicles.
(Back at Lotor's Ship)
Lotor, Tabris, Dorma, and Lotor's Generals were looking upon their newest ship with a grin as it was ready. But all of a sudden Dorma began to collapse as the others saw her. "Dorma?" Tabris asked looking to her with concern.
In Dorma's eyes she saw Hikari was also there. "Dorma you can't do this forever please give me back my life!" Hikari begged as Dorma was relapsing back into Hikari as she tried to keep a grip on her will as both of them heard the Yellow Wolfs howl.
"She may need medical attention." Acxa said as Lotor looked to her.
"No." Lotor said as he was there when Dorma was 'born,' and the pain he saw that innocent girl known as Hikari go through still plagues his mind simply for his dishonorable act of not aiding her. "Dorma you can stand down now." Lotor said as he looked to Dorma. "Your mission is over." Lotor urged hoping it would help her.
Soon an explosion was heard across the ship as the alarms were blaring with metal groaning from the force of the attack.
(Command Deck)
"What's happening?!" Lotor asked as this was a really bad time.
"A Galra fleet is attacking us!" Zethrid called out as Lotor heard this.
"Return fire!" Lotor ordered but Zethrid then saw something. "Wait theirs another fleet and another one! WE can't hold them all off!" Zethrid called as Galra ships began to appear as they all began to fire upon them.
(Lotor Hanger)
"Prepare the Sincline Ships to take off! Load the Comet into Acxa's and have Dorma taken to the Yellow Wolf. Tabris and I will take the Black and Red Wolves." Lotor said as then she ship shook once more. "We're leaving!" Lotor said as they began to move out.
(In Space)
Both Voltron's flew through Space as Thrusters around Vehicle Voltron's legs and shoulders were engaged as they flew to the area with a Galra fighter between them.
(Galra fighter)
"We're getting close." Rei said as behind her was Mari as they were both suited up for battle as they both heard the howl the closer they got. "Everyone prepare to start the operation." Rei said as she and Mari had to retrieve both Wolves and their lost friend.
"Starting the cloaking field now." Mari said as she did her part.
(Toji)
"Don't worry Hikari we're coming." Toji said as he was going to save Hikari even if it killed him.
(Space)
The cloaked fighter flew straight for Lotor's ship avoiding every blast that would have hit it as they had to hurry.
(Voltron)
"Ok everyone you know what to do keep the ships off of Lotor's ship for as long as you can." Shinji called as they had to move fast.
"RIGHT!" The Paladins called as they now basically had to help Lotor long enough for Rei and Mari to get their targets.
(V-Voltron)
"Ok ladies and one gentlemen lets show them what the Vehicle Team can accomplish!" Mana called out as it was time to rumble.
"Rodger!" Came the voices of Maria, Mayuri, Sumine, and the co-pilots Midori and Hideki.
(Battle)
*Insert Gunbuster OST Aim for the Top - Fly High
V-Voltron flew in head first as Voltron saw the middle child of the three Defenders fly forward to do battle before flying upward. "EAT THIS!" Mana roared as Vehicle Voltron got ready as energy transferred to its leg. "VICTORIOUS KICK!" Mana roared out as the attack activated showing V-Voltron's weapons were voice activated as spike shot out from the foot before V-Voltron shot straight down nailing multiple Galra ships in one shot.
Soon once the Galra were area both Voltron's were in the battle they began firing at Vehicle Voltron who then used its hand to block the weaker shots showing it was empowered after its failed first battle on Earth. It soon landed on Lotor's ship as no doubt it will hold the defenses there as it glared at the attacking foes.
(V-Voltron)
"We got enemies coming at us from below!" Sumire said as she saw them on her scope.
"We need to take as many out as we can while holding them off." Maria called as Mana nodded.
"Ok let's use the Homing Lasers!" Mana called as they needed to keep them occupied not win.
(Battle)
"FORM LASER BLASTER!" Mana and Maria roared as V-Voltron formed its weapon and took aim with the ranged weapon. "FIRE HOMING LASERS!" Both red headed girl and blond British girl roared as beams shot from V-Voltron's guns before they spread about hitting multiple foes at once which only allowed the laser to spear before in turn it vanished after losing power as this was a huge fleet all to take down Lotor.
(V-Voltron)
"We're not done yet!" Mana roared as she then looked to Sumire who nodded.
"Forming shoulder cannons!" Sumire called out activating the weapon.
(Battle)
Voltron was fighting off multiple fighters at once as it then saw V-Voltron formed two cannons one on each shoulder. One of them was clearly not the cannon they know but a large mini gun while the other was some sort of missile launcher. "FIRING CANNONS!" Mana called out as the cannon both fired as they took out one entire Galra battle ship on its own.
(Voltron)
"Wow." Shinji said as V-Voltron was every bit as strong as Voltron now.
"Hey we're not letting them have all the fun now are we?!" Asuka asked as they had to move.
"Right! Let's get in there!" Shinji called as they went for their attack.
(Battle)
"Form Blazing Sword!" Shinji roared out as Voltron formed its sword and charged at the opposing force as it began to slash its way through the ships simply disabling them and only destroying them if needed.
V-Voltron saw an attack coming in as it was multiple rounds as it quickly acted. "Mayuri form the shield now!" Mana was heard as V-Voltron then reached to its back and forming from Quintessence was a cape which V-Voltron used to block the laser blasts and defend Lotor's ship with it.
(V-Voltron)
"Heh Defender of the Universe, meet the Guardian of the Universe!" Mana called with a smirk as V-Voltron was now complete as she still hasn't used all its weapons yet as her team even smirked.
"Don't stop just yet we still have to hold them off." Hideki said as he looked to his allies.
"Jeez what a troublesome job." Midori said as this was more trouble than it was worth for her.
(Battle)
Voltron and V-Voltron then flew in space back to back ready for whatever other foe may come at them as they were surrounded but had to hold the line.
*End OST
(Lotor's ship)
Rei and Mari got in as they used the emergency airlock to get in and once the air was re-pressurized got into the ships halls. "We need to move now." Rei said as Mari nodded before the two focused. 'Blue Wolf I am sorry for being late... please lead me to you.' Rei mentally called as she waited for the Howl.
'Come on puppy show me where you are.' Mari thought hoping the Wolf would head her.
Soon the two went wide eyed as they heard the wolves calling them as they both saw this. "Let's move." Rei said as the two then began making their way to where the Wolves were being held.
(With Hikari/Dorma)
Dorma was in a fetal position on her chair within Yellow Wolf as she was tearing up the pain the torture Fala inflicted on her was coming back tenfold and right now she could not tell if she was Hikari or if she was Dorma. Her mind was a jumbled mess as she couldn't figure out whose memory was whom.
"Make it stop..." Dorma begged as she could hear the wolf but not hear it at the same time. "Please... make it stop." She begged as explosions happened outside the ship.
(Hanger)
"Is Dorma secured within the Yellow Wolf?" Lotor asked as Ezor nodded.
"Yeah and both blue and green area ready to be towed if need be." Ezor said as Lotor nodded.
"Good hold off the attack until we are away." Lotor said as the shaking stopped a bit but they couldn't take any chances. "Then scuttle-." Lotor began as soon the ship shook violently as everyone tried to hang on.
"How did they find us?" Acxa asked as she looked around.
"We must have been tracked." Tabris said as they then looked to Narti as both he and Lotor put the pieces together.
"Forgive us." Lotor said before he drew his Bayard that was once Zarkon's as it became a Galra blade and with it he cut down Narti.
(With Hagar)
Hagar roared in shock as the connection was cut off as she saw Lotor and Tabris figured it out.
"Heh quiet cunning of them." Fala said as she saw this happen.
(Lotor and crew)
"Sorry we didn't want this to happen." Tabris said as they blundered by bringing Narti instead of Ezor.
"Come on." Lotor said as Tabris nodded as since they were in full Knight Gear they headed to their Wolves to evacuate the ship with their two Sincline ships.
(Back with Rei and Mari)
The two fought their way through Galra troops and drones as they made their way to the hanger where the Two Wolves were being kept and arrived to find them both restrained to lay down both of them in a particle barrier.
"Come on." Mari called as she made her way to Green Wolf as they had to hurry as they also saw the other three were still here. Rei headed over to Blue Wolf as she approached it she then breathed in before letting her breath out and put her hand on the barrier. She then felt the same shock as she did with Blue Lion but without the visions before as these new ones involved Lotron and Hikari's plight.
Soon the barrier fell as Rei nodded and made her way inside the Wolf as she had to break it out now. Mari meanwhile did the same and was met with the same visions but with more of the ones Rei had saw the first time and when she did the barrier for Green also fell as she smiled.
(Blue Wolf)
Rei arrived in Blue Wolfs hanger as the destruction occurring outside was becoming prominent as she then saw on her screen Lotor and Tabris heading for their wolves to escape.
(Mari)
"Ah smells nice in here." Mari said as she began to activate the Wolf as she saw the controls light up as she felt that the wolf was happy to be with its true pilot at long last instead of that psychopath Sincline. But then Mari felt it as Green Wolf was trying to tell her of Hikari's situation as she looked to Yellow Wolf. "Ok I'll help." Mari said as she knew Rei agreed on this.
(Hikari/Dorma)
Dorma tried to desperately block the sounds out from outside as soon she felt two more hands touch her mind... but they were gentle and comforting as Dorma looked and saw Green and Yellow Wolf both activating as they looked to their pack member. "It's ok..." Rei was heard as Dorma looked. "Let go that battle you fought is over now let it flow." Rei said as Mari was then heard.
"Yeah your friends and family are waiting for you just wake up and ask yourself who are you and who do you want to me." Mari was heard as Dorma then saw her reflection as she began to focus and soon her eyes snapped open. Her screen then showed her everything her true memories and her fake memories as the fake memories made way for the true ones as Dorma rubbed her hand on it.
"I... I see now." Dorma... no Hikari said as she then looked at her hands and remembered... the EVA, Earth, and most of all home.
Soon Hikari felt it as her eyes snapped open and she felt the connection to Yellow Wolf. "Yes... I heard you. Who... no you were helping and protecting me from the start!" Hikari said as she began to realize what she was doing and knew she had to escape.
(Lotor and Tabris)
"All systems are go!" Lotor called as he activated his Wolf as Tabris saw this from his wolf.
"Lotor we have a problem." Tabris said as Lotor soon saw it.
(Hanger)
Blue, Green, and Yellow Wolves all roared out as the first two broke out of their restraints as it was clear they had pilots now as Yellow stood with them instead of Lotor and Tabris.
(Rei)
"Lotor and Tabris I will only ask you once come with us or we will have to use force." Rei said as she knew Lotor and Tabris won't listen so easily.
(Lotor)
"I don't have time for this!" Lotor cursed as Tabris agreed.
(Hanger)
Black and Red Wolf then fired a beam blast at the three wolves as they began to make their escape as they ran through the hole and made their way to the hanger doors.
(Outside)
Both of Lotor's Comet ships flew out followed by Red and Black Wolf as both Voltron's saw this.
(Voltron)
"Ok that's two wolves but were are yellow, green, and red?" Shinji asked as both teams saw this.
"Voltron Teams this is Rei! Disengage I repeat disengage mission accomplished!" Rei was heard as Toji smiled.
"Is Hikari with you!?" Toji asked as he hoped to whatever god was out there Hikari was there.
"T-Toji?" Hikari was heard and without the Dorma voice as Toji smiled as they had to move now.
"Ok move out of the way, team transfer power to Black Lion." Shinji ordered as everyone agreed.
(Battle)
Blue, Green, and Yellow Wolf were seen flying sorts them as Voltron began to once more cross its arms over its chest while the same light as before began to activate. The Ships fired at Voltron only for its eyes to glow and in turn was protected by an AT-Field which seemed to be a rainbow color this time around.
"VICTORIOUS CUTTER!" Shinji invoked before Voltron fired the blast from its chest busting a huge hole in the Galra forces. "Ok that should hold them let's move!" Shinji called before Voltron and V-Voltron flew after the three wolves as they escaped.
(Lotor)
Lotor was flying about as after today they were in their darkest hour. No Lotron as now the Alliance has the left arm and both legs for Lotron. Soon a transmission was being picked up as Lotor heard it as Acxa brought it up for their small caravan. "Sir, we are picking up a transmission." Acxa said as she looked to Lotor on her screen.
(Zarkon)
Zarkon was being recorded and viewed on screen all over the Empire as standing by his side was Fala who has proven her loyalty to the Empire and in turn is now the last one in line who is eligible by blood to ascend to the throne. "Attention, citizens of the Galra Empire. From this day forward, my sons Lotor and Tabris are to both be regarded as fugitive criminals of the empire. All citizens are authorized to use deadly force to stop him or any of their soldiers. I repeat, Prince Lotor and Prince Tabris are both enemies of the state. Engage with Extreme Prejudice. Kill on Sight." Zarkon ordered as everyone who had heard this was shocked as Fala smirked as her scenario was progressing to her exact specifications. She knew killing Lotor and Tabris would cause questions but making them into criminals of the empire was genius and she barely had to lift a finger since the Paladins proved to be her tools to enact it without realizing it.
(Tabris)
Tabris had kept Narti's cat as both of them heard the event happen as Tabris petted the cat who had just lost her master.
(Voltron)
The Paladins were shocked as they were still hacked into the Galra communications and to think Zarkon would discard both of his sons like that Shinji was even angry not at Lotor or Tabris but at Zarkon for what he did.
(Wolves)
Mari, Rei, and Hikari all heard this as they were wide eyed as Hikari even more so as she realized what this meant but the deeper meaning as she looked at her hands and began to panic a bit but Yellow Wolf calmed her down to keep her from having a panic attack.
(Lotor)
Lotor glared as he saw even now his father held no love for him. He also felt Black Wolf telling him he wasn't alone for he had Tabris with him and his Generals but most of all the other wolves if they can truly unite. "Do as you must and follow the path you made for yourself." The Wolf was heard in Lotor's head as growls as he knew he needed to figure out his next move.
