"Team! We need to take out the Ion cannons now! We can't keep this up much longer!" Shiro yelled through the com.
I was doing the main work on trying to get the cannon offline. "I'm trying, but I need-" I stopped talking as I felt my body freeze up.
"Pidge? What is it?" Shiro's panicked voice asked.
"Shit! She's caught in the tractor beam." Keith told them.
It was a bit difficult to speak, but I tried my damndest to try and get Green to move. Suddenly, the power in the lion cut out abruptly; the lights and screens went black. But, I had no time to ponder as to how and why as my eyes fluttered shut.
---------------------------------
I woke up on a cold, hard floor. Everything looked blurry and only the glow of the purple lighting shinned through veil that seemed to cover my eyes.
But soon enough, I became very self aware of where I was. A Galra battle cruiser. I started breathing heavily as I panicked. My eyes darted around as my heart beat quickened.
"Ah. She wakes." I jumped at the sudden voice. The Witch stood outside the door, looming.
"What do you want with me?" I demanded.
"With you? I want nothing to do with you."
"Voltron." I said quietly. "You'd be stupid to think you'll actually get it."
"Maybe. Only time will tell, paladin." A hint of smugness trailed her voice.
"You could keep me hear until I die and it won't make any difference. Voltron will always be Voltron with or without me, or any of us. No matter what, they'll win. We always will win."
"You're replaceable as a paladin. But I know you'll be wanted back soon enough." she said, and laughed. It creeped me out. The witch then left without another word.
I couldn't help but feel that what she said had a deeper meaning, and I don't know if I want to find out what.
