-slides in- So uh.. yeah hi! Totally didn't make you guys wait forever! Anyone still here or did ya'll give up on me and leave? Pfft I would have too.

Though trust me, I WAS working on this story! I have redone this chapter soo many times, i just wasn't happy with what i was doing so I kept changing it. I wanted to get a chapter out for you guys on Valentines day, but that didn't work out well... But hey, at least I didn't leave you waiting for a year like i did the fans of my GumballxDarwin fanfic (oops)!

Also on a side note, the word Quiznak, which the characters tend to use, I often heard it was a word for fuck, or whatever.

Sooo if i make Lance tell Lotor to quiznak him, is that sexy at all or should i stick to the good ol' english language? XD Though let's be honest, Lance is sexy no matter what he does or says!

Enjoy the wayyy overdue chapter my lovelies! Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or just to chat, i freakin love you all.

"You know, even though you can tell what I am thinking, that question really came out of no where." Lance spoke, as Lance and Narti walked down a hallway with Kova tailing them quietly. Narti turned her head towards Lance and Kova slipped between her legs to curl up on her left foot.

'I like to get straight to the point.' Her response came, invading his thoughts. Lance chuckled, rubbing his neck. "Fair enough." His eyes shifted as they walked, his hands fidgeting as he thought to himself.

'You seem uncertain all of the sudden. Should we wait until you can talk to Prince Lotor?' Narti's calm voice spoke in his mind, making Lance jump. He just wasn't use to someone else being in his head.

"Yeah.. I think I should talk to him first. It is his choice as much as it is mine."

Narti stopped walking, turning to touch Lance's shoulder lightly. 'You will make a fine princess for our leader.'

Lance blushed hard. "P-princess? Yeah right, I am definitely not pretty enough to be one."

'You are too hard on yourself, you are very refined. The prince choose you, and he does not chose his partners lightly.'

Lance's heart thumped at this. "Has.. has he had alot of partners?"

Narti stayed silent for a moment, and Kova took the opportunity to jump onto her shoulders.

'He had only a few, and that was many years ago. This is the first time he is so serious.' Narti replied. Lance felt himself heat up. Lotor was so serious... serious about him.

Narti cocked her head to the side, and he could practically feel her smiling. Lance glared at her. "You are reading my thoughts again aren't you?"

'It is difficult not to, you are very vocal.' Narti giggled. Lance laughed. "Vocal huh? That's what Lotor says when we ha- I mean, uh yeah..." Lance nearly spilled the beans, though he knew Narti probably already knew what he was going to say, a blush tinting his cheeks.

'Go to him Lance, I am sure he wants to see you as much as you want to see him. Come back to me when you both are ready.' Narti said, before giving his shoulder a squeeze and turning to leave, with Kova giving Lance a goodbye meow as they left.

Lance turned on his heels, now with a different goal: To find Lotor. He couldn't believe Narti was able to tell what he was thinking to such an extent. The few times he had been thinking of how nice it would be to have such a deep connection as to have children together was when Lance would wake up after a passionate night and just lay relaxing in Lotor's arms.

The fact that Narti could tell what he had thought even BEFORE they had met, really showed just how powerful she was, including all of Lotor's generals.

Lance wandered around for a bit, as he searched for Lotor. He walked down a hallway that was unfamiliar to him, and squeaked as he turned a corner and ran into Lotor's chest.

Lotor made a soft "oof" sound, and Lance wrapped his arms around Lotor's waist.

"hmmm, i recognize this body." Lance hummed, his face still against Lotor's armor. Lotor chuckled. "Well hello there, did you get enough to eat?"

Lance leaned back and nodded. "And then some. Listen... I want to talk."

Lotor's face faltered slightly, and Lance raised his hands quickly in defense. "Nono, it isn't what you are thinking! Nothing bad, trust me."

Lotor smiled, pulling Lance close to kiss his cheek. "Good, you know I will never let you go now that I have you."

Lance smiled back. "I wouldn't have it any other way."

Lotor laced his finger's with Lance's as he tugged him along. "As much as I want to sit down and talk to you, know is not a good time..." When Lance looked up at him curiously, Lotor continued.

"My father has called me to his side once again." Lance gaped. "Seriously? I finally have you back only to lose you again?"

"My thoughts exactly. Hopefully he won't keep me long, but on the off chance he does, I have a request." Lotor looked down at Lance as they walked.

Lance nodded. "Of course, anything."

"I want you to be in charge while I am gone."

Lance's eyes widened, and he raised his hands in defense. "Nooooo no no no, no way Lotor! You know I am more of a follower than a leader! There is no way, plus I feel like Acxa still doesn't like me. There is no way I could be a fill-in leader while you are gone."

Lotor smiled, turning to Lance to take both of his hands to hold in his own again. "I know you feel that way, but trust me; you are more than capable. You don't see it in yourself, but I do. I have already talked to my generals, they have agreed."

Lance snorted. "Well of course they would! You are their leader, they would jump into a volcano if you told them to! They may agree but I doubt they are happy about it!"

Lotor pulled Lance's hands to his face to press kisses. "Please Lance, I could not leave this place in better hands than yours."

Lance felt his heart thump yet again in his chest. Lotor being gentle would always make him turn to jelly. He turned his head and pouted. "Fine.. but if there are any issues, I am blaming you!"

Lotor laughed. "Of course."

"And another thing!" Lance moved closer to Lotor, getting his face close to the older mans. "You better come back to me the second you are able to."

Lotor took the opportunity to close the distance and peck Lance's lips with his own. "I promise. As soon as I get back, let's talk."

Lance nodded, before Lotor released his hands and left Lance standing alone in the hallway.

'Ugh, what perfect timing, Zarkon you asshole.' Lance thought, kicking his feet as he decided to explore the new area he had found. He didn't find much, there was a few storage rooms, the general's bedrooms, and and a prison hold.

A few hours later of exploring, because damn was Lotor's ship large, Lance became hungry again. It was hard to tell what time it was in space, but luckily his stomach helped him with that. 'Dinner time it is!' Lance thought.

Lance made his way back towards the kitchen and got himself some more food. He hummed as he ate, sad that Lotor was gone, but happy things were finally going right.

He closed his eyes, still feeling the warmth and the touches of Lotor's arms and hands. The Galra people always seemed so cold, so distant, but Lotor was nothing like that. His heat was intoxicating. Lance shivered as he remembered the fun they had when he was finally reunited with his lover. Lance couldn't help it; he was head over heels for Lotor.

Everything about him was amazing. Lance didn't know why Lotor wanted him so much, but Lance was sure glad he did. He was so glad that he went to that bar that night. Glad that he had attracted Lotor's attention instead of someone elses. He couldn't imagine his life without Lotor.

Thoughts about his discussion with Narti popped into his head, and he sighed. 'Wish I was given a chance to talk to Lotor about the possibility of having children.. Though it may be too soon. Things are moving so fast, but it doesn't seem like they are. Everything just feels so natural with him. So right.' Lance thought, smiling to himself. He couldn't wait for Lotor to come back.

Lance finished his dinner and met with Zethrid in the battle room to duke it out. Needless to say, he lost yet again.

"Damn, you are really strong!" Lance huffed, laying on his back, covered in sweat. Zethrid stood above him, cracking her fingers. "You are too distracted. I thought Lotor being gone would make you pay more attention, but it seems it just gets worse." Zethrid chuckled.

Lance sat up. "Shut up! I was finally by his side again, only for him to be taken from me again. You can't imagine how hard that is."

Zethrid offered her hand to Lance, and he grabbed it as she lifted him back to his feet. "I may not, but I do understand that you both care for each other. He will be back, I promise." Lance nodded.

He thanked her for dueling with him again, before going back to Lotor's and his room to clean himself up.

Bored, Lance found himself wandering back into Monitor room, where Acxa and Ezor were working on their computers. Ezor was the first to notice Lance's presence, and shot him a smile. "Hey Lance!" She said. Lance smiled back. "Hey Ezor. How is everything?"

"Everything is fine! I don't know if you ran into Lotor hours ago, but he had to leave to meet with his father, and he wanted to leave you in charge."

"No, he did, I just didn't think it was so urgent that he had to leave so suddenly."

"It always is with Zarkon." Acxa grunted, typing away, shooting Lance a glare. Lance knew that, of any of the generals, Acxa would be the last one to except his sudden authority.

"Don't mind her, she is just grumpy that Lotor didn't leave her in charge." Ezor giggled. Acxa turned to bark at her. "You know I am more than capable of running this place!"

Ezor just waved her hands as she shrugged. "Sure, but so is Lance. Give him a chance would'ya?"

Acxa huffed and turned away from both of them. Ezor just winked at Lance. "Soo, what is first on the agenda, Leader?"

Lance scratched the back of his neck. "It isn't like I had anything i wanted to do aside from be with Lotor..." Ezor smiled. "Well... I would really like to meet up with my teammates.." Lance said after a moment.

Ezor blinked. "Your old team? I don't know if that is a good idea. They weren't too keen on you being with us to begin with."

"They seemed more accepting when i talked with them here."

Ezor crossed her arms. "That's true... Welp! If that is what you want to do, let it be done! We can take the smaller ships and head to their Castle. We don't all have to go, but at least one of us should go with you."

Lance nodded, it made sense. Of anyone, Ezor or Narti would be the best choices. Before he could even make his decision, alarms went off throughout the entire ship. A loud noise followed, and the whole ship rocked slightly.

"We are under attack!" Acxa stood up as her computer lit up in red. Ezor flailed her arms to keep her balance, just as Zethrid and Narti rushed into the room.

"It's the lions!" Zethrid yelled, turning to glare at Lance.

Lance was shocked. 'They are attacking? W-what...'

"This is your fault isn't it?" Zethrid yelled, barging forward to grip Lance by his collar. Narti was instantly to his side, trying to pry Zethrid's hands off him.

"As soon as Lotor leaves, you have your bloody team come to destroy us?"

Lance's eyes were wide, and he was having trouble breathing. "N-no of c-course... not! I don't.. know why th-they are attacking!" He struggling against her grip. Ezor rushed forward to shove at Zethrid.

"Zethrid! Don't hurt him! He would have had to contact them here if he was going to do that, and Acxa and I have been here this whole time!"

Zethrid faltered, before growling and shoving Lance away. Narti rushed to his side as Lance leaned over in a coughing fit.

"Well why the quiznak are they attacking? I thought everything was fine during their chat!?"

Acxa shook her head. "No idea, but we need to get to our battle stations and protect the ship."

"NO!" Lance choked out, all of the generals turning to look at him. "Put me through to Shiro, I will talk to him."

Zethrid and Acxa wanted to argue, but because Lance was now above them in status, they held their tongues and Acxa turned to get her computer working.

The monitor's screen glitched out for a moment, before Shiro's face appeared. He was angry.

"Shiro! Can you hear me? What is going on? What the quiznak are you doing?" Lance practically yelled. Shiro's eyes flickered to the screen for a brief moment.

"Lance! I cannot accept this! Lotor is controlling you! You are not yourself! I am bringing you back, whether you like it or not!" Shiro yelled, shooting more at Lotor's ship and making everyone stumble. Lance gritted his teeth.

"I'M not myself? The hell Shiro! I thought you accepted this!"

"I never accepted it! Lotor's team attacked us and destroyed part of our castle, so I am going to do what I need to to drag you back!"

The ship shook again.

"I didn't peg you for the revenge type Shiro. Fuck this, Zethrid, open up the hangar!" Lance shouted. Zethrid seemed hesitant but when Lance stared her down, she complied, rushing towards the Hangar.

"Shiro, stop this! I will meet with you, head towards our hanger in the east wing!" Lance was angry. Not only was Shiro not himself, but he was damaging Lotor's ship! All just to drag Lance back, whether against his will or not.

Lance was the leader now, he had to act like one. Shiro had calmed down when they had talked just earlier, but something had snapped. Apparently he wasn't as accepting as Lance had thought he was.

"Does he seriously think he can take us all on?" Acxa hissed, turning to head towards the hangar.

"He won't. I will fight him myself." Lance spoke, stopping Acxa in her tracks. She whipped around, eyes wide. "You must be joking! Our job is to make sure you are safe. Lotor will have our heads if you are injured, or even killed!"

"I will make sure to tell him I wanted to do this then!" Lance hissed, stomping towards the weapon room as the remaining three generals followed.

"And if you are killed?" Acxa growled.

"Then I will haunt his ass and tell him as a ghost!" Lance was too angry to argue with her. He thought everything was going to get better, but it was just getting worse.

Lance opened up the door to the weapon room, moving around to find a purple sword with a black handle, along with a large but light-weight shield.

"He is damaging our ship! I won't stand by and do nothing!" Acxa continued. Ezor and Narti stayed quiet. Lance could feel Narti's presence in his mind, but he pushed it aside, stomping towards Acxa so they were standing face to face.

"Acxa, I hate to break it to you, but I am in charge right now, and what I say goes, understand? I know you hate it, and I don't really give a shit if you hate me. I need to take care of this myself. You WILL stand down, or I will make you." Lance growled at her.

Acxa scoffed, clearly sure that she could beat Lance easily, but she said nothing. Lance walked around her, leaving the room to head towards the Hangar.

Lance couldn't believe what was happening! He was surprised at himself for standing up to Acxa, but he felt adrenaline pumping through veins. He WAS going to stop Shiro. He felt his heart thumping hard against his chest. The fact that he would be fighting against a former teammate, a friend, was alot to take in.

Lance grabbed a helmet as he entered the hangar, snapping it on as oxygen filled his lungs. The hangar was open and Lance could see the Black lion coming towards them in the distance. Zethrid a large gun cradled in her hands, and turned when Lance entered.

"You will not engage with Shiro unless I tell you to." Lance spoke, hoping she would not put up a fight like Acxa, he already felt exhausted. Zethrid pursed her lips, but nodded.

The black lion roared as it flew into the hangar, landing with a boom and shaking the ship yet again.

Lance held his weapon and shield in front of himself as Shiro appeared, climbing out of his lion.

"Lance, you are coming with me." Shiro spoke in a low and dangerous tone.

Lance gritted his teeth. "What happened? You seemed accepting when we talked earlier! Why are you suddenly appearing, damaging Lotor's ship and claiming you will take me back? I don't want to go back! I left Voltron, I am with Lotor now. You just need to accept that!"

Shiro shook his head. "Lance, you were always so gullible. You fell victim to a galra, and I understand. I am here to help."

Lance flared up. "HELP? ME? You are losing your fucking mind! I don't need your help. I am no longer a teammate, leave me and my team alone."

Shiro faltered, glaring at the generals behind him. "YOUR team? You are with them now? Bullshit Lance! Allura doesn't like this anymore than I do."

"Just you two huh? Is that why the others haven't followed to come to aid you?" Lance sneered. Shiro's eyes lit up. "I don't care if I have to drag you back to the Castle. You are and always will be a member of Voltron, it is your destiny."

"Bullshit! Don't tell me you really think I will just give up my life with Lotor to go back to your side? I was wanting to visit you all. I wanted to maintain a relationship with all of you. But if some of you want me to choose between you guys or Lotor, I choose Lotor!" Lance pointed his sword at Shiro, his anger boiling over.

"I don't care if I have to drag your unconscious body back, you will be returning with me!" Shiro's prosthetic arm lit up in its purple glow as he darted at Lance.

Lance gritted his teeth, spreading his legs as he brought his shield up and faced Shiro.

"LIKE HELL!" Lance screamed as he rushed towards Shiro as the two began their battle.

OK... this is I believe the longest chapter I have done for this story! So I guess it kind of makes up for the long wait?... then again, it ended with turmoil.. yaaayy! I legit wrote this whole chapter in my 3 hour Sociology class, and it was so worth it! BTW, that class is shit. He is a sucky teacher, to the point i have to teach myself, so i just show up for attendance and then leave after that lol

Please note, even though I made Shiro basically the bad guy, I still love that space daddy so much! But someone has to create some problems! how else will my story progress?

Anyway, thank you everyone for sticking around so long, one commenter kinda pointed it out to me that Lance and Lotor have not been together that long in my story, and so them going from a couple to having babies would be kind of sudden. I don't want to drag this story on forever, but i will have them together a bit longer before they decide to have the babes!

Also, i would love help deciding on the babies names! I won't say how many they will have, maybe one, maybe two, maybe more! I won't say what genders either, so just comment a bunch of girl and boy names, and we shall see what happens! 3

Psstt, if you actually read my little notes, comment "Yaoi is love, Yaoi is life" and i will love you forever!
