(A/N I do not own Voltron legendary defender or the Percy Jackson universe or any of the characters. I do not claim to.

This chapter is told from Lance's and Sofia's perspective, because I suck at third person. It starts with Lance and a perspective change is indicated by this ~~~ and then the person's name

Keith is a son of hades as is his sister. This is the only way they are related. Season 7 hasn't happened because I don't like talking about it but the castle of lions isn't destroyed, it is still a thing. Keith is still half galra. Don't ask me how it works.

Sofia thinks of Keith and Nico as her full blooded brothers, they are not. Sofia's mother owned a morgue. Her name is Anaya. She died in the second giant war. This is 21 years after. Sofia was mostly raised by Chiron.

This chapter is mostly dialogue, I'm sorry if Keith is out of character, this is my first time writing him.)

Beware langst ahead

Chapter 2: I still suck

~~~Lance~~~

"The galra know we have Sofia with us. But she is drained. They want her for her quintessence. How come they never found out about Keith's high levels?" Allura asks Pidge

"I don't know but I know I showed up on a scanner. I was on their ship to see if they were hostile. Obviously they were," Sofia answers, "and I'll be fine if i have some ambrosia."

"Ambrosia? As in the food of the gods?" Hunk asks excitedly.

"UMM?" I but in, "Are we seriously not gonna talk about what just happened? You know the whole Keith's a son of the Greek god of death? THATS KINDA A BIG THING."

"How is this any different from me being half galra?" Keith asks from the corner of the room his face in a scowl, he was in his signature pose, one leg bent and on the wall and his arms crossed.

"Well that didn't complicate things." I say crossing my own arms, Keith always thinks he's better than me and to be honest he is. I'm better than no one, lotor was better than me. He actually did something, he actually kissed Allura. My heart twists at that, every time allura is remotely flirty with me I have to remind myself she's rebounding, she doesn't actually feel that. Who would?

"Ok, fine," Keith walks over to me, "being a demigod is different than half galra, me and Sofia will explain everything after we figure out what the galra are doing with the quintessence they sapped from her. We know the quintessence from people is different than the quintessence that we find in stars and planets. We know it's more concentrated."

"I ran some tests on Keith and Sofia's quintessence sum opposed to ours to see if it would be different amounts. There was a massive difference," Pidge says, "we need to find out what they're going to do with it. Until then we need to keep other demigods away."

"So," Sofia walked over to me and Keith "I'll be staying with the legendary paladins of Voltron in the castle of lions." Keith yelped and lunged at her. Her eyes flash and she grabs his arm and pins it behind his back.

"Owowow. Stop, I was trying to hug you"

"The Keith I knew never hugged anyone except from his knife."

Keith sits up, "That was Leo and you know it."

"Maybe, maybe not? Come on you looked so happy with your ickle knife."

"I should probably check on my mom, and explain a lot." Keith stands up rubbing his arm and goes to the spare room. Sofia stands up, "Keith I need to I.M. Noah and Chiron wait for me. I don't have any drachma." She follows him out the room.

The room settles into an uncomfortable silence.

"I'm gonna go read up on Greek mythology to see if they might have any hidden powers?" Pidge states and grabs hunk's arm and drags him off to the kitchen probably.

"Me and allura are going to try and sort out some sleeping quarters for Sofia." So I'm sat in the -I don't know what it's even called- the place with the sitting area. It needs a better name than sitting area. But I'm alone, as always. I head to the kitchen, to see if I can help hunk and pidge or just sit around whilst they do their thing, daydreaming of Allura. I need to stop, she doesn't feel that way but how do you change the way you feel about someone. The obvious one is move on but no one deserves to be a rebound except from me.

"Lance was it?" Sofia tapped my shoulder. I spun around shocked.

"What's up?" I ask her, I really didn't want to talk to her about before, she really scared me.

"Look, I just want to apologise about before. Threatening you wasn't cool, I was confused. But you do remind me of my uncle Leo."

"Uncle Leo?"

"Well technically he's my nephew, he's a Hispanic son of Hephaestus. He flirted a lot when he was younger. He's not so happy anymore. You 2 were very similar."

"Understandable, I was kidding about you though. You are- pleasant looking but not my type." That made her burst out in laughter.

"You should have waited until I I. Noah until you said that."

"Why would I say that in front of your husband?"

"Fiancé, but it's an inside joke," she laughs then looks at my confused face, "ok so basically my brother is gay-"

"You've said Keith's gay."

"No, my other brother: Nico Di Angelo. But basically he had a crush on my fiancé's older brother, Percy. And when he told him Annabeth was there and Nico said it was the funniest thing. His face was like 'excuse you I'm everyone's type.'"

"Oh, that's kinda funny."

"Well, then Nico went back to his now-husband."

I laugh a little, "Funnier."

"Can you do me a favour? I need some water."

"Sure," I say, "why?"

"I'm going to I.M. Noah."

"I.M.?"

"Basically a demigod's FaceTime."

"Oh ok, the kitchen's this way."

"Thanks."

~~~Sofia~~~

He was scared of me. I felt like a jerk, no one was ever scared of me. It was always Keith and Nico. God they are scary, but I've always been viewed as the 'looks-like-they-could-kill-you-but-is-actually-a-cinnamon-roll'. So I ruffle his hair and I feel pain.

"Are you ok?" I ask him, obviously concerned because I've only felt this much sorrow before when Nico gave me a hug when I was starving myself when Keith 'died'. The only times I would eat was when me and Noah went on a date, so... he asked me out every 2 days, then every day. So we progressed a lot.

"I'm perfectly fine."

"Right ok that does it," I point an accusatory finger at him, "Do not lie to me. You are now in a safe kitchen. Eat as much as you want. Heck, is there any ice-cream? But I will not judge, so tell me. I have infinite wisdom, I can help."

"Girl problems."

"Ohhh. So... is it Miss Legolas?"

"Legolas? As in the elf from lord of the rings?"

"Hey! You understood!"

"Oh, Allura. She's the best, beautiful, smart and brave."

"That's your type? You wound me."

He laughs, I can feel the pain in it but it isn't as intense, "Well you're also very, very intimidating."

"Not when you know me, I have been called a deadly marshmallow."

He laughs, it's nice, I feel like, he's my brother. Another one then!

"But her heart's just been broken. There was this galran-altean called lotor, she fell in love. They kissed, turns out he was evil," he lets out a shallow chuckle, "And now she's flirting and stuff with me. And- and I'm already insecure about my sexuality, then I don't want to be a rebound. But maybe, I deserve it. I just get in the way with my stupid jokes. I'm just a seventh wheel." Like Leo I think.

"Oh my god! Are you actually Leo's son? You 2 are literally carbon copies of each other. Leo would flirt with ANYONE. But basically there were 7 demigods in a prophecy and Leo was one of them. The others were: Perseus, Annabeth, Frank, Hazel... Jason and- Piper," I took a deep breath, pipes was still a painful subject, "Jason and Piper are... gone now. But they were dating, so are Percy and Annabeth, I think Hazel and Frank are married. They live in Europe now. But Leo was by definition a seventh wheel."

"What happened to Jason and Piper?"

"Ask Keith. It's a painful subject, Pipes raised me."

"What was Jason's last name?"

I look at him, "Grace... his mom was a tv star before she died."

"Piper Grace?"

"No Jason died when I was one. Pipes was 16."

"What was her name then?"

"She hated that question," I laugh sitting on the counter, Lance looks like he was genuinely interested, "why are you asking?"

"I just- love listening to other people's families I miss mine. So what was it?"

"Ok, but only because I need to get over her dying, her name was Piper McLean," his eyes widen, "Yes as in the film star. Ok get whatever fangirling you have out of your system. I personally knew Tristan McLean's daughter. Anything else you wanna know about Piper ask Keith I don't think I can talk about her anymore. But it's been progress it's been 10 years since I could talk about her. It hurts."

"Tell me about something else then, what about Keith? Your mom?"

"Ha, I just told you about her. But the actual chick who got the lord of the dead's attention? I don't remember anything about her except from when she died. I'm told she was enthusiastic,overly. She worked part-time in a morgue but she also acted in a little theatre, apparently she was the best actress in the state, I don't know which one. But have you seen Hamilton? She was Angelica, in one. That's the night she met my dad, I don't know what happened after. I was born he visited less. Then an aeternae broke through the wall and killed her. My dad shows up, boom! She's... dead. Next to a pile of sand, and a screaming baby. When monsters are killed, they don't stay killed they go back to Tartarus, a place underneath the underworld only three heroes have survived a trip through there, two got out free. One was captured as dragged out in an urn. Nico, my brother was captured. Percy and Annabeth, they closed the doors of death, this was around the time my mom died. So..."

"Oh, that's sad. Well if you ever need to talk about anything I'm here for it. I love hearing people's stories about their home. I could listen to coran talk all day about altea."

"If you need any blackmail material for Keith, you know a girl." I nudge his arm doing an oversized wink.

He laughs, "ok, I need at least something. This is a great opportunity!" He says, I look at him, "Team bonding. Why on earth would I blackmail him. Please can I hear one story."

"Ok I'll tell you about... Tyson! Oh my god that was so funny. But of backstory during the second Titan war there was a daughter of Zeus... Thalia grace -Jason's sister- she got turned into a tree and basically it got poisoned. And there was this son of Poseidon Tyson, he's a cyclopes. And one day he came to camp and Keith started freaking out because he thought he was gonna attack us-"

"And that's where the story ends," Keith put a hand over my mouth. I glare at him as he drags me out of the kitchen, "Don't even try licking my hand, I grew up with you don't try it." I glare at him, he keeps dragging me towards a door.

"What's in here."

"My mom wants to talk to you."

"What did you not explain?"

"I explained everything, apart from you and Nico, and Bianca."

"And Hazel."

"Hazel?"

"Wait, wait, WAIT. You don't know who Hazel is?"

"Umm no?"

"Right you'd better come in then." I grab his wrist and drag him inside the door. Krolia looks up at me, she's confused.

"Ok so, explain." Keith says.

"About what? My mom? Well, good gods I've just had this talk with Lance. Umm, basically there was this monster called an aeternae, broke through the wall of my house and, um. My dad gave my mom this dagger," I say pulling out a celestial bronze dagger with a leather grip, I've never used it and I never will, "She used it to kill it but not before she, got ... stabbed. I need to go." I run out the room, tears streaming down my face. I know, it's stupid, I know I shouldn't be upset. I barely even knew her but it hurts. It hurts, tears streaming down my face I run I don't know where I am, I run sobbing. I sit in a hallway letting myself cry, I'm loud. I don't care, someone can find me tell me where I am and how to get home.

Eventually my sobs slow and I'm sat there with a red face and wet cheeks. I dry them on my shirt sleeve, I don't even know what I'm wearing some sort of hospital gown. I dry my eyes and melt into the shadows. Someone turns around the corner, Keith? I stand up, I look at him, he looks worried. I walk to him. I try and hug him, I go straight through him. Like I was a ghost? I look down to see nothing, no shadow, no body.
