Injury
Disclaimer: I do not own Voltron Force.
So, as I said, I had some editing to do on this chapter. I would like to thank SallyOn for the private message with some great advice, thank you, I mean it sincerely. Hope you all enjoy this chapter, because I have no clue when I'll get the next chapter up.
3 weeks later
Larmina had been feeling a bit better, so she didn't have to go to the doctor. As her and Daniel walked around the castle an alarm went off. They raced to the command center and saw Pidge and Serenity scanning everywhere.
"The Galtrions are back. They're going to attack Arus." Serenity said.
"They'll be here soon." Pidge added.
"To the lions, be on your toes." Daniel said before they scattered. Just as they exited their lion's dens lasers were fired upon them.
"They mean business this time!" Vince said, dodging a set of lasers. They all managed to meet up and fight together, managing to fend off the small ships.
"I think the head ship is here." Tony said.
"Keep cool you guys." Daniel said. They dodged and weaved through the barrage of lasers as Daniel looked for weaknesses in the ship.
"Go for the engines, if we can down it we can beat it." Daniel said.
"But then they'll be stuck here and I don't want to deal with Impics." Larmina growled, running for the engines.
"They must have an escape pod." Daniel said, running up along her. A hatched opened and seven or so morphigions came charging out.
"Now, we have a problem." Vince said frantically.
"What the hell are those things?" Milani asked.
"Morphigions, they adapt to one type of attack and learn from the ones that die. Stay ready." Daniel explained quickly. The ship continued to fire upon the Voltron force but then they accidentally fired upon a morphigion which vaporized it. Daniel noticed, though he was being attacked, that the other morphigions weren't watching, they were set on the Voltron force, which meant they didn't learn how to adapt to the blast that had killed one of their own.
"Guys, I have an idea." Daniel said.
"Good, make it…" Larmina began but was cut off, a loud, metallic crash coming over the com.
"Larmina! Come in! Larmina!" Daniel shouted over the com. Managing to turn the head he saw blue lion down. Daniel told Vince his plan telepathically before breaking free of the three or so morphigions that were attacking his lion and rushed over to the blue lion. He could see inside the eyes of the lion that Larmina was still alive, but the angle her left forearm was at very much indicated that it was badly broken.
"Pidge, send a team of paramedics. Larmina's unconscious and by the looks of it, has a broken arm." Daniel said. He turned his lion around and stood over the blue lion, warding off any soldiers or ships that came his way as his teammates got rid of the morphigions. Something told Daniel that king Argus would eventually try the whole robeast thing soon, seeing as how his morphing creatures weren't doing all that well. They could adapt to the low power attacks, but with the upgrade that Vince, Pidge, Hunk and Serenity kept doing on the lions to up the power and speed of the lions, every battle with the morphigions the weaknesses of the bio warriors became more and more clear. High level attacks they could not adapt to, giving the Voltron force a serious advantage. The technology aspect was another story. They had higher level technology, but they seemed to rely on the morphigions to finish the job, powering down the technology and leaving themselves wide open. Clearly, they were a bit too confident in their biological creations.
The paramedics arrived and carefully pulled Larmina from the lion and Serenity got the lion back to its den.
"They're taking Larmina to the medical wing of the castle, and blue is safe." Serenity reported.
"Thanks for the update." Daniel said before returning to the main battle.
Larmina woke up in the medical bay. She saw her aunt, cousin and one of the female doctors. She felt the sharp pain in her arm.
"What are you doing to my arm?" Larmina shouted in pain.
"Larmina, try to calm down, I need to set it. It's broken." The doctor said calmly. After they managed to set and cast her arm they had to get the medicine for her so the pain would be less severe.
"I know we have you records on file, but you still need to provide a urine sample. You know how this goes." The doctor said. Larmina rolled her eyes as she left for the bathroom. The over cautious procedures drove her crazy, but she knew why. When she returned her aunt, the doctor and she waited for the results to come back.
"How have you been Larmina?" the doctor asked casually.
"Other than a minor stomach bug, fine." Larmina said. Daniel knocked quietly.
"Name?" The doctor said from inside the room.
"Commander Daniel." Daniel said.
"Enter, but just for a moment." The doctor said. Daniel walked in, letting out sigh of relief when he saw Larmina conscious.
"How will the cast limit her flying or fighting abilities?" Daniel asked.
"She should take it easy for the next few days. It wasn't a complete break but nonetheless she needs rest." The doctor said to both Daniel and Larmina. Daniel nodded while Larmina rolled her eyes at her protective boyfriend. She knew his heart was in the right place, but he took doctor's orders seriously. Honestly Larmina couldn't blame him; she just hoped he wouldn't overdo it. Soon after the doctor shooed him out of the room, the results had returned. Daniel complied and left the women alone, knowing he'd see Larmina soon. The doctor read over the results carefully and then froze on one part of it, looking at it for the longest time before looking up at Larmina and Allura and sleeping Arlone in Allura's arms.
"Larmina, are you aware that you're pregnant?" the doctor asked. Both Allura and Larmina's jaws dropped.
"I'm what?" Larmina said disbelievingly.
"The urine test came back as pregnant." The doctor reworded.
"Do I look pregnant?" Larmina asked sarcastically.
"Ok, when was your last period? How sexually active are you with your partner? Was there a time you can remember when you didn't use a condom?" The doctor asked. Larmina had to think about it for a moment and then it hit her. For the last two months she didn't have her period, she thought it was just the crazy amounts of stress that always seemed to be the case or the fluctuation in her pills since she tended to forget to take them, and then her illness earlier last month.
"I just had my last period a week ago. I didn't have it for two months, but I thought it was just stress. Very, at least three times a week. Yeah, but that was the first time we ever had sex, and I had started the pill at least a week ahead of that." Larmina said. Allura shook her head.
"Obviously no one told you that the royal bloodline is very known for being extremely fertile and that all it takes is one time. And Corcians are also known for being very fertile because of the Arusian and Druel heritage. Yes, you started your birth control, but it takes a while to kick in, and if I do recall, you admitted to forgetting to take it for a least three days at a time." Allura said. Larmina didn't know what to do; she was definitely not expecting this and she was honestly scared. It hit her like a ton of bricks and at that moment, Larmina could've sworn she felt a small flutter in her stomach, and not of the queasy variety, like something was actually moving.
"Obviously since you didn't know till now, I can assume the father doesn't know. Also, stop your pills, if you haven't already." The doctor said.
"Correct and will do, since I haven't taken them in a week." Larmina murmured.
"You may want to tell him soon. When he knows, come back for an ultrasound. " The doctor said.
"I will, when I know how to word it right." Larmina said before she got her medicine that was approved. As she and her aunt left she noticed a complex look on her aunt's face.
"What?" Larmina asked.
"I'm torn. I'm happy for you, but at the same time I'm upset. You're not married yet Larmina, and this all being an 'oops' kind of worries me." Allura said.
"I know, but I know Daniel wouldn't leave me because of this." Larmina said assuring.
"When are you going to tell him?" Allura asked.
"I don't know. Just give me a little time to think and then I'll tell him." Larmina said, rubbing her temples while still feeling the pain of her arm.
"Don't wait too long Larmina." Allura said before going her own way to take her son to his room, leaving Larmina to think.
Hope you all enjoyed this. Like I said, I have no clue when I'll get the next chapter up. Again, a thanks to whom I previously mentioned at the top for helpful advice :). R&R please.
