Nightmares. Day Dreams.

Disclaimer: I do not own Voltron Force.

Hello again. So, this is my kind of long chapter. I swear I will try to get them to be longer.

Enjoy.


It had been two weeks since the cadets' arrival and they had situated really well, as well as the Voltron Force. So, for some unknown reason Larmina was having a hard time sleeping one night. She tried meditating, hot tea, counting sheep. Eventually she just gave up and lay in her bed wide awake. Larmina didn't even realize she actually had fallen asleep after laying there for ten minutes.

Dream

Larmina walked down the empty corridor of the hospital. She had come to see Daniel, even if it was just through a glass screen; she knew he was bored and lonely. She arrived at his room to see him topless, as he often was because of his exercise routine.

"Hey Larmina, what's up?" Daniel asked cheerfully.

"Not much. You only have a few months left till you can come out." Larmina snickered.

"Might as well be a few years. It's so boring here, not to mention it smells like old cheese." Daniel complained. Larmina couldn't help but laugh.

Pause

Larmina giggled in her sleep at the memory. That's all she thought this was, her mind wandering off to her memories as she lay awake, even though she was actually asleep.

Continue Dream

"So, how's it been at the castle without me around to keep everyone on their toes?" Daniel asked sarcastically.

"Quiet." Larmina said in a relieved tone.

"Oh come on, I know you guys miss me." Daniel chuckled. Larmina rolled her eyes.

"Ouch, that hurts Larmina, really, it does." Daniel snickered, feigning pain in his chest, his hand covering his heart.

Pause

Again, Larmina giggled. Daniel could be so dramatic, but she knew he was being sarcastic and he knew she was also being sarcastic.

Dream

Larmina giggled until she noticed Daniel clutching his chest, his eyes and face expressing pain.

"You ok? Have you had your first shot today?" Larmina asked concerned. Daniel nodded, unable to speak.

Pause

Larmina began to whimper in her sleep quietly. In the next room over Daniel slept peacefully, but he could hear an odd sound coming from a nearby room.

Dream

Larmina cried out for a doctor as Daniel collapsed, crying out in pain as he convulsed. The doctors rushed in and strapped him to a gurney before placing him on the bed. He had stopped convulsing. Then, his body lit up purple as the Haggarium spread through him like wild fire. He cried out in complete agony, his body writhing in pain and his eyes glowing bright purple. Larmina ran into the room after quickly alerting the others.

"Come on Daniel, fight it. It hurts, I can see it hurts. I wish I could help. Please, Daniel fight it!" Larmina begged.

Pause

Larmina began to cry a little more, her words slurring in her sleep. Daniel stirred awake at the sound, identifying it was coming from Larmina's room. He stood and turned on the light before he heard her cry.

Dream

The others rushed in and gasped at the scene. Every single vein in his body glowed so bright with Haggarium it was visible through the skin. Then he stopped glowing, his eyes resumed their normal dark purple color. Something was wrong though, his chest wasn't moving. Larmina started to panic. The doctors quickly pushed her aside and began trying to use the CPR machine to start his heart.

"Clear." the doctor said as the nurse pressed the electric pads to his chest. Larmina looked away, afraid to watch. She heard a loud, nonstop beep from the monitor. After three tries of trying to start his heart again the doctors turned off the monitor and closed his eyes.

"We're sorry but…he didn't make it, the Haggarium just flooded his system all at once that…it was fatal." The doctor said solemnly.

Awake


(A/N) Ok, I don't know all the medical items, I use Google to find this stuff, and it's not even completely resourceful, but it works. Sorry to those who might know.


Larmina sat upright, tears streaming down her face. She was crying, loudly and her breathing hitched in her throat. Daniel heard this as he left his room and quickly went to her room, opening the door and walking in. Daniel alerted the others, who came rushing down to find Larmina curled up tightly in Daniels arms, crying uncontrollably.

"Is she ok?" Keith asked.

"I don't know. I heard her burst into tears, came in here, found her crying hysterically, called you guys, then came over and let her cry on my shoulder. She hasn't said anything about it, all she said was she wanted to talk to Allura." Daniel said confused. Allura walked over and sat down next to the two teens.

"Larmina, do you want the others here?" Allura asked gently. She had never seen Larmina like this. Larmina shook her head as she pulled away from Daniel's bare chest, which was now wet with her tears, but she could see he didn't care. The others nodded and left, leaving the two Arusian royals to talk in privacy.

"What happened Larmina?" Allura asked gently.

"I had a nightmare. I thought I had just spaced off, I didn't know I actually fell asleep. It was awful Aunt Allura. It started out ok, but it ended so…" Larmina couldn't speak, her throat clenched up. Allura hugged her niece.

"Tell me everything." Allura said quietly. Larmina began to explain everything.

"That had to be awful, watching the person you care for die in front of you." Allura said, thinking of the many times that Keith had almost died in front of her.

"How do you know I care about him other than the dream?" Larmina asked, wiping her eyes.

"Larmina, I could see it from the first time on Ariel when you held his hand, that you cared about him more than just as a friend, that you two had an affection for each other. Daniel made it very obvious after he first saw you, he didn't even know you were royalty until two seconds after that, and the blush that covered his face was hysterical. But it's always been you two to go on crazy adventures, and disobey rules. I thought it was just a crush, but alas, it seems that history is starting to repeat itself." Allura chuckled. Larmina looked up to her aunt, confused.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Larmina asked.

"You love him Larmina, and don't try lying to your pregnant aunt." Allura chuckled as Larmina turned fifty different shades of red.

"Your blush isn't helping prove me wrong." Allura giggled.

"I hate when you're right." Larmina grumbled.

"Feel better?" Allura asked.

"Yeah, and now even more tired than to begin with." Larmina said as a yawn escaped her.

3 days later

It had been three days since Larmina had her nightmare, and what concerned Daniel most was that she was acting perfectly normal. Well, as normal as Larmina could get. If anything, Larmina was far from normal. She's perfect actually. Daniel thought idly. He was glad he didn't have to teach the strategy class until last, while Vince and Hunk taught the tech class. He sat in the room both he and Larmina taught, but first she taught with her aunt and combat before teaching with him. At times, Daniel couldn't help but notice how she had grown into a beautiful woman, and he finally admitted it that he cared for her deeply.

Her red hair, which she kept up in a ponytail, had grown down to her mid-back and he had seen how long it was three days ago, and it plunged down to her tail bone, it was also wavy. Her eyes, which were always angled dangerously, had softened only slightly, remaining edgy and the same intense baby blue. He shook his head.

"Need to stop thinking about her." Daniel muttered aloud and went back to looking out the window at the beautiful scenery of Arus. Little did Daniel know that Larmina was having a much harder time keeping her focus on anything but him.

"Why did he have to become so…attractive?" Larmina whispered aloud. She had seen how much more muscular he had become, hell, she had gotten sneak peeks when she got the opportunity to visit him in the hospital. She couldn't help but think of his now sculpted body. He wasn't disgustingly muscular, but he wasn't mildly built. She couldn't stop herself but thinking of his six pack and pecks, his strong arms that held her when she cried, even down to his legs that showed because of the skin tight suit the Voltron Force members wore.

Larmina felt herself grow warm between her legs and then stopped herself and cooled down, feeling a little embarrassed about where her mind had taken her. Before she could even start thinking about him again, her aunt and the cadets came into the class, and she was glad for the distraction.

1 hour later

As the class exited, getting their assignment they left for Lance's classes Allura saw that distant look in her niece's eyes.

"What's on your mind?" Allura asked.

"Too much." Larmina said.

"Daniel?" Allura asked.

"How'd you guess?" Larmina asked sarcastically.

"I can read you like a book Larmina. One of you two will tell the other, it may be a while, or it may be soon, but whenever it happens, it will happen nonetheless." Allura said before leaving.

"Going to take a nap?" Larmina asked.

"Yes, my son is restless." Allura chuckled, rubbing her swollen belly. She was six months along and definitely showing. Larmina went to the training room, knowing she had a good two hours to think things through. Yet for some reason, time was no friend to her.

Larmina's mind again began to wonder and things started to get much more…steamy in her mind before finally coming back to the real world and blushing madly.

"Fuck, this is getting frustrating." Larmina hissed angrily to herself. She glanced to the clock and found she had ten minutes, just enough time to meditate and collect herself. The sound of people approaching snapped her out of her meditation. Larmina stood as the cadets entered.

"Alright, today we will be learning Jiujitsu. In fact, we'll probably spend this whole week learning basic yet intensive forms. I can guarantee by the time you either join the force or become Pidge's assistant you'll be well trained in multiple martial arts." Larmina said as the class stood awaiting further instruction, clearing her mind momentarily of her daydream, knowing she would need to mull it over later.


Ah, the beginnings of sexual tension. Hope you liked it. R&R. If I can swing it, I'll get another chapter up tonight. If not, then it'll be up tomorrow.
