CHAPTER TWO

Sir Coran Smythe was walking down the halls of the Castle of Lions with a young lady with short red hair. The young lady appeared to be nervous. Coran shared a glance at her.

"Tammy what is it?" Coran asked.

"Oh...nothing," Tammy answered quickly, "Just a little nervous that's all."

"There's nothing to be nervous about. I'm sure the Voltron Force will be delighted to see you." Coran smiled in an assuring way.

Coran walked Tammy to the control room where the team was at and where Pidge Stroker was talking to the team about a few things about the lions. Coran cleared his throat, getting everyone's attention. Everyone looked to see Tammy and Coran standing close by and it got Pidge's attention before anyone else.

"What..." Pidge was in surprise to see Tammy, "Tammy? Is that you?"

"Yes Pidge. It's me." Tammy smiled.

"Wow!" Pidge exclaimed, "I don't believe it! It's been awhile!"

"I know. What a shame."

"Wait a second, I know her from my childhood, but you know her too?" Princess Larmina Sirtis asked.

"Yeah," Pidge answered, "She helped us save a group of villagers from the Drule Empire when she was younger."

"My mom was one of the villagers we had to rescue." Tammy smiled.

"Interesting story." Vince DaCosta replied. Daniel Chandler and Larmina nodded in agreement.

"Plenty of things here happened before your time." Lance McClain smiled.

"Boy is that ever true?" Daniel replied.

"It's never been easy being a part of the Voltron Force," Keith said, "But it's always worth defending the universe."

Everyone looked around the room in silence before Pidge finally spoke up, "Daniel, Vince, Larmina, why don't you three show Tammy to her new room. The one she'll share with you three."

"Sure thing," Larmina replied, "Let's go."

The four cadets left the control room for the room Tammy would be sharing with her fellow cadets.

Unbeknownst to the four, the mystery old man was watching them go to their room.

He looked on, "None of these children are the perfect host for my master."

The man took a closer look at Tammy and was surprised, "Is that...Tammy? Tammy Garland? My would be step daughter? What is she doing here? I wonder."

Daniel and Larmina walked in their room, followed by Vince and Tammy.

"Nice room," Tammy asked, "Am I sleeping here?"

"Looks like it," Daniel answered, "The difference though is that Vince and I share the bunk on the left while you share your bunk with Larmina on the right."

"I sort of figured."

"You better get used to it because this is gonna be your new home." Larmina said.

"I already am." Tammy replied.

"Glad you think so."

Daniel, Vince and Larmina heard beeps on their Voltcoms. Pidge's voice was heard on their voltcoms, "Could one of you cadets tell Tammy to report to the control room?"

"Will do." Daniel answered.

"It's great that I have met my fellow cadets." Tammy said with a smile before leaving her room.

"We'll see you when you get your Voltcom!" Daniel replied. He, Vince and Larmina all looked at each other.

"Well, what do you guys think of Tammy being a cadet like us?" Vince asked.

"I think it's pretty cool." Larmina exclaimed, "She's a girl and she's from Arus. I think she'll kick butt!"

"I like her," Vince said, "I personally think Tammy has a lot of potential think that Tammy has a lot of great potential being a part of our team and all."

"I don't know," Daniel sighed, "She seems good, but I'm not sure if she's much of a fighter as advertised."

"What do you mean by that exactly?" Larmina asked.

"Nothing," Daniel answered, "Except...she appears to be slightly naïve or something."

"Is that so?"

Daniel nodded.

"Maybe she'll overcome it in that case." Vince theorized.

"Maybe." Daniel replied.
