Here we were, just a few strikes away from freeing the universe and destroying Zarkon once and for all, our biggest battle yet.

"We have to act fast"Shiro said "The power will only be cut for 20 minutes. The Blade of Marmora schematics showed four objectives that we need to hit. The weapon systems, the engine, the bridge, and the shield generators"

The paladins cheered in agreement and immediately went to work. They formed their sword and began slashing and stabbing at Zarkon's ship, causing some areas to erupt in bright, loud explosions.

Coran, Ally and I watched the battle from the castle, Ally moved closer to me feeling a bit nervous, as I hugged her tighter to reassure her. Suddenly I heard a moan, I looked at Allura and I could see how she slowly opened her eyes

"Allura" I said feeling happy and relieved, drawing the attention of Ally and Coran, who smiled seeing her awake

"Are you okay?" Ally quickly asked with concern

"I'm good." Allura reassured her before shifting her gaze to the view outside, seeing Voltron in action "...We've done it. This is the end of Zarkon's reign." she whispered

"Yes, princess" Coran murmured softly

"Can you believe it?" Allura let out a small laugh, coughing a bit at the end.

"Eh, I had my doubts when I met them, but I must admit that they really impressed me" I confessed in a playful way, while Allura nudged me with a proud smile on her face

"You never miss an opportunity to make a sarcastic comment, do you?" Coran falsely complained, letting out a small laugh.

"It's my style" I said without any shame, Ally laughed too and hugged me from behind, shaking her head

We saw the paladins destroy apart Zarkon's ship. Who would have thought that the redhead and his friends had come this far? I formed a small smile and leaned my head against Ally's, stroking her arm around me, she could finally grow up in a free universe. something that i couldn't do, but the good thing was that I would enjoy it with her and probably with the rest of the paladins

Suddenly, I felt as if an uncomfortable feeling hit my entire body from a mysterious direction, my markings began to glow purple and a dark, but almost familiar, aura surrounded Zarkon's ship. 

I looked at ship and frowned curiously, while narrowing my eyes "Something is going on inside Zarkon's command center" I said, lightly touching my cheeks, drawing the attention of Allura, Coran and Ally

"What?" Ally asked

"What are you talking about?" Allura asked something nervous

"I don't know how to explain it, but it feels like someone charged something with some kind of dark energy, something huge like a planet and it's inside Zarkon's command center". I explained, trying to find with my eyes the origin of that feeling "feels so familiar"

"Um, I think I already know what produces it" Coran said with fear, shakily pointing to a point on the ship

We followed his gaze and noticed how a huge black and purple sphere began to appear on a platform, releasing some rays around, just below Voltron.

"What is that thing?" Allura asked in disbelief.

I looked at the sphere with interest when an image appeared in front of my eyes, showing that same sphere, being launched to a green and blue planet, snatching all the life it once had and filling with power a rare purple capsule that was inside, stored on top of that platform
