I don't own Voltron only my OC Lyra.

Let's hurry up with these repairs. Zarkon could be here at any moment said, Shiro.

Okay, the panel's off. Now, what? Asks Hunk.

Very simple. Just loosen the blaxums on the somoflange said, Coran.

Could you be more specific? Asks Hunk.

Sorry, Hunk, he means the poklones on the agroclams said Allira.

No, that doesn't help said Hunk.

Easy, Hunk. I got this. Uh-oh. That can't be good said, Lance.

No, not the smalters, the poklones said Allura.

No, no! It's the blaxums said, Coran.

What are you talking about? Asks Keith.

There. Fixed said Pidge.

Well done, Pidge said Allura.

The tech on this ship never ceases to amaze me. It's so mathematically elegant. Its fit is a 100 times more frictionless than any exoskeleton we have on Earth. It's beautiful said Pidge.

It's not a sunset, Pidge said Lyra.

You're right. A billion sunsets just happen every day. Some genius engineer actually built this said Pidge.

Kinda looks like a big, delicious curly fry said Hunk.

What the? All right, we're prepared for this. Remember your rogue projectile cluster training from the Garrison. First, we need a temporary shelter said, Shiro.

Wha? Oh, sorry, Shiro. I was trying to hit Keith said, Lance.

Like that? Said Keith.

Yes! Squishy asteroid fight said Hunk.

All right, guys. Oh, oh! Okay, now, it's on said, Shiro.

Oh, come on said, Lance.

I don't think these are asteroids. Coran, I'm going to need a containment unit said Pidge.

Just a tick said, Coran.

They appear to be some sort of hyper-resilient spore said Allura.

This bio-luminescent pulsing doesn't seem natural. It appears programmed said Pidge.

I think it's a code said Pidge.

A code? From who? Asks Lyra.

I don't know. I mean, it makes no sense. You can't program a spore said Pidge.

If anyone can figure it out, it's you, Pidge said Shiro.

Before that, everyone needs to come in for decontamination said Allura.

Scene change

Keith, did you happen to see a mouse come through here? He has something of mine said, Coran.

Uh, no said Keith.

I'll find you, Platt said Coran.

Wait, Coran! Do you think the Galra ever went to Earth? Is that possible? They would have taken it over, right? Said Keith.

Oh, I think you'd know if the Galra were there said, Coran.

The Blue Lion was there. Did a Galra pilot the Blue Lion, too? Said Keith.

Hey, why are you asking about my lion? How many lions do you need? Asks Lance.

What? No, I-I has just said Keith.

Don't "What? No, I-I was just " me! You've had your eye on the Blue Lion from day one said, Lance.

Well, yeah. It's the first one we found said, Keith.

Ah! Bah-bah-bah-bah! The Blue Lion's with me and we're very happy together! Very happy said Lance.

Jerk said Lyra.

Guys! Check this out said Pidge.

Scene change.

Oh, oh! I've seen this experiment. But, question: Why do we need to get electricity from a potato? Said Hunk.

What? No, no. I was able to crack the "sporse code." I ran the bioluminescent pattern through a variety of code-breaking sequences, including this homemade virtual Turing machine. Of course, I had to make a few tweaks to the original design, because, obviously, there have been several advancements since he designed it. Although you have to admit, Turing was a shining light in the world of science in an age when far too many were still said Pidge.

Pidge. What does it say? Asks Keith.

Oh, yeah. "Under attack. Galra. Help." And then, there are coordinates said Pidge.

It's a distress signal. Good work, Pidge. Get those coordinates into the castle-ship's navigation system said, Shiro.

The signal came from Olkarion, home to the Olkari, a proud class of engineers, builders of vast cities that could change shape at the whim of their creators said Coran.

They had a seemingly magical ability to manipulate solid metal. With just a wave of their hands, they could build a computer inside a block of steel said Allura.

Whoa said Pidge.

An Olkari once gave me this said, Coran.

What is it? Asks Lance.

Uh, hello? It's a floating cube! Oh, this guy. And watch! My name is Coran and I'm a gorgeous man said, Coran.

Cube: My name is Coran and I'm a gorgeous man.

Why would a society full of literal tech wizards use spores to send a distress signal? Asks Keith.

Who cares? When do we get to see that city? Asks Pidge.

Actually, Pidge, the distress signal isn't coming from- the city. It's coming from the forest said Allura.

Oh, Why doesn't anyone ever send a distress signal from a cool place? I hate the outdoors. Nothing but sunburn and poison oak said Pidge.

I like it out here. It's quiet said Keith.

What was that? Asks Hunk.

Uh, are we being attacked? Asks Keith.

I don't know, but something's dragging my lion down to the surface said, Shiro.

Yeah, something's pulling Blue down, too said Lance.

Are those wooden mech-suits? Asks Hunk.

Are you kidding me? We got taken down by a bunch of tree people said, Lance.

We come in peace said, Shiro.

Could it be? Voltron? Asks a creature.

We found your distress signal said Pidge.

Praise Lubos said the creature.

When the Galra attacked, only a few of us escaped the cities. We were forced to flee into the forest said the creature.

How long have you lived like this? Asks Shiro.

Many decafeebs. But, as you can see, our people are resilient. We never stopped evolving. Instead, we adapted our skills to the environment said the creature.

Coran was right, Ryner. You really are the most incredible engineers in the universe. To be able to switch from working with precision machinery to a bunch of sticks said Pidge.

Nature's designs are superior to any that we could devise said, Ryner.

No offense, but I'll take my computer over a tree any day said Pidge.

You two can talk science later. Let's assemble Voltron and get rid of these Galra invaders said

It's not that simple, I'm afraid. The Galra have our leader, Lubos said Ryner.

if you attack, who knows what they'll do to him? Said, Ryner.

Then, we'll just have to rescue him said, Shiro.

Um, Ryner, where are we? Asks Keith.

This is the armory said, Ryner.

Cool said, Lance.

Uh, can I get one of those? Asks Keith.

Of course. You can each have one. Now, the key to operating it is understanding that the nanocellulose responds to electrical impulses from the neural pathways connected through this said Ryner.

Do what now? Asks Lance.

Mm. Mm! Makes my tongue itchy said Hunk.

That's your interface? Asks Pidge.

Of course, all commands need to come as binary coded messages said, Ryner.

So, like this said Pidge.

Yes! Excellent said Ryner.

I think mine is just a tree said, Lance.

You must have a deep connection with nature said, Ryner.

Not really. My allergies and pale skin don't mix with outdoor living said Pidge.

Pidge is our resident tech expert said, Shiro.

Well, that explains it. Like the Olkari, you understand that, at the deepest level, trees, metal, you, me, we're all made up of the same cosmic dust, all arranged by the laws of mathematics said Ryner.

Does this mean I should start gardening? Asks Pidge.

It means you're going to need to give your friends a ride. This way! To the edge of the forest! To save our king said, Ryner.

Their headquarters are impenetrable from the ground, but there is one way in, a small opening in the roof. It goes all the way down to an open courtyard said, Ryner.

That's quite a drop said, Keith.

That's gotta be at least 300 feet said Lyra

But there you will have total access to the building. The hard part will be getting onto the roof undetected said, Ryner.

That won't be a problem said, Shiro.

Hey, hey, what's that? Is that part of the building? Asks Hunk.

My Lubos! It can't be said, Ryner.

Hey! That looks like the cube Coran gave me said Pidge.

I haven't seen one of those in many decafeebs. We used to play with them as children. But this. Only King Lubos could have designed one that size said, Ryner.

Why would he do that? Asks

They must have forced him to reveal his designs and reconstruct it as a weapon. From the looks of it, I'd say it's almost finished said, Ryner.

Okay, we need to act fast. Everyone, back to base. I have a plan. First, we'll need to get to the top of that tower. Since the Green Lion has stealth capabilities, Pidge, you're the dropship. You'll take Keith, Hunk, Lance, Lyra and me to the roof, then drop back to a safe position. After the drop, we'll use a sensor to scan the building for any Olkari biorhythms said, Shiro.

TV: Betrayal! She loves you.

King Lubos? Said, Shiro.

Yes? Who are you? The jesters I requested? Asks Lubos/

Um, we're here to, like, rescue you? Said Lance.

Hmm said Lubos.

You could have just said, "No, thanks said Hunk.

Looks like someone came to rescue you, Lubos said a Galra.

You turned your back on your people to save your own skin? Said, Shiro.

I'm doing this for my people! They wanted to fight the Galra, but they are too powerful! The Galra could destroy us said Lubos.

So, you helped enslave your people to build some superweapon? Asks Lyra.

Don't make me the bad guy! He forced me to do it said Lubos.

Did he force-feed you, too? Asks Lyra.

Uh. said Lubos.

You're no king said, Keith.

Okay, we're walking out of here! Anyone tries to stop us and Lubos gets it said, Keith.

Whoa, K-Keith! That came out of nowhere said, Lance.

La-sai, what are you doing? Asks Lubos.

You betrayed our people. I can't live this lie anymore said La-sai.

You don't want me to hurt your genius engineer, right? Asks Keith.

Galra commander: Oh, be my guest. His work is done. The cube is complete.

What? But-But I thought we had a deal said Lubos.

Galra commander: Guards, put them all out of their misery.

Your ride is here said Pidge.

Galra Commander: Engage the cube! Takedown the lion!"

The cube is operational! We've got to get back to the other lions and form Voltron said, Shiro.

On it said Pidge.

Scene change

Lubos What's going on? Asks Ryner.

What's going on is Lubos betrayed you said Lyra.

While your countrymen starved, King Lubos was well taken care of by the Galra. He willingly helped them build that cube, willingly helped to enslave his own people said, Shiro.

I know you're devastated, but it's time to be strong and use your Olkari spirit to fight alongside Voltron and take back your planet said, Shiro.

Lubos, how could you? Asks Ryner.

I- I was only trying to said Lubos.

Enough! We must free our people said, Ryner.

They form Voltron.

All right, team, let's take that thing down! Form shield said, Shiro.

Let's see how tough this magic cube is said, Keith.

Did it just absorb our lasers? Asks Pidge.

Yeah and fired it right back at us said Lyra

We need to increase firepower! Hunk, use your blaster said, Shiro.

I'm not sure this is a good idea said Pidge.

Got it! Yeah, I think it's working said Hunking.

It's giving back whatever we fire into it like Coran's echo cube said, Shiro.

I just said that not three minutes ago said Lyra.

That's what I was trying to tell you guys! It's learning! Making its own versions of our weapons to use against us said Pidge.

We can't just sit here. We've got to move said, Lance.

How do we beat it? Ask Hunk.

Maybe, if we form our sword, we can cut through the surface and hack right into the center thinking point place? Said Lance.

Can't be any worse than what's happening now said, Keith.

Let's do it. Form sword said, Shiro.

It's working said Pidge.

It's still operational! Re-engage said, Shiro.

We did it! They're going down said Hunk.

Uh-oh said, Lance.

We've got to move! Move! We can't fight them like this! We need to split up! Back into lions said, Shiro.

GALRA COMMANDER: Excellent. Voltron doesn't stand a chance against my weapon. Soon, I'll have both the cube and Voltron to present to Emperor Zarkon.

Let's see if I can freeze these guys! Oh, no! So cold, so cold! - Oh, oh. Thanks, Keith said Lance.

You got it said, Keith.

Shiro, what are we going to do? Asks Hunk.

There doesn't seem to be any way to stop them, but we can't let this weapon get into Zarkon's hands! Pidge said, Shiro.

The Green Lion's in trouble said, Ryner.

Pidge! Are you okay? Asks Hunk.

Pidge, can you hear me? Asks Ryner.

Yeah. Wait. How am I hearing you? Said Pidge.

That's not important right now. We need to get your lion back up and running. I think we can heal your lion's body, but you must bond with its spirit if it is to fly again said, Ryner.

But I thought we bonded already said Pidge.

Your bond must be stronger said, Ryner.

Come on, girl. I need you said Pidge.

Remember what I said. You, the lion, the Olkari We are all made of the same essence said Ryner.

Where are you, Pidge? We need you said, Shiro.

Pidge said, Keith.

Guys, hang on said Pidge.

Whoa, Pidge! What's going on? You're booking said Hunk.

I'm not sure, but I feel more connected with my lion than ever! I know what I have to do said Pidge.

Whoa! How'd you do that? That's right said, Lance.

Circle up, everybody! Get some of this said Pidge.

Vines Well, that is not the way I thought a giant cube of death would go down said Hunk.

GALRA COMMANDER: No!"

GALRA: Commander, we have to evacuate. The cube is down, and the Olkari have taken back the city.

I want to thank you all. You helped us get our home back. And, for that, we will never be able to repay you said, Ryner.

Just promise me that when it's time to take the fight to Zarkon, we can count on the Olkari for help said Shiro/

Now and forever said, Ryner.

And you, The spirit of the Olkari resides in you. The bond between you and your lion has grown stronger than ever said, Ryner.

Without you, I would never have been able to unlock my lion's hidden power said Pidge.

Nice job, Pidge said Shiro.

Scene change.

You know, it's weird. I've always been a tech junkie. That's how I connected with the world. But, for the first time, I feel connected to everything. I guess it's like Ryner said. We're all made up of the same cosmic dust said Pidge.

So, that means we're all related. This ship, those stars, the Olkari. Even the Galra said, Keith.

Uh-oh. I think Keith just blew his own mind. What? Said Hunk.

Well, that was a productive trip. Look at all these cubes they gave me! Coran, Coran, the gorgeous man said Coran.

CUBES: "Coran, Coran, the gorgeous man! - Ah, sounds pretty good.

Ah, sounds pretty good said, Coran.

Whoa said Hunk.

What's that? Asks Coran.

Oh, no said Coran.
