Man not only did I start school but there's a hurricane in Texas, luckily we're only getting rain where I live but Houston, which is only a couple of hours away is flooded so bad, it's horrible.

"So uh, anyone know where Lance and Hunk are?" I asked. As soon as I said that, I beacon appered in the screen.
"That could be them! Let's check it out!" I said scrambling to my lion. I want to find my best friend okay. I wormhole jumped with my lion and went towards the beacon. I looked around to see two holes in ice. Then the blue and yellow lion popped out of the holes.
"Lance! Hunk! You're okay!"
"Korra! Oh man you won't believe what we just saw."
~~~
"Is he okay?" Hunk asked. Shiro is in the healing pod, groaning and shifting.
"Sometimes the healing process can cause involuntary brain wave reactions." Allura explained.
"He looks like he's having a bad dream."
"He just got blasted by a space witch and mauled by giant lizards. What dream could be worse than that?" Keith said from his spot beside me. He refused to leave my side when we came back, which is adorable!
~~~
After a while, Shiro woke up, rambling something about coordinates in his arm and a Galra named Ulaz who saved him. Pidge hooked his arm up to her computer and went to work.
"I'm not finding any coordinates here. You sure it wasn't a dream?" She said.
"I'm positive. Some one helped me escape."
"And he was Galra?" Allura asked, not sounding too happy.
"Yes."
"You know you can not trust them."
"You're father must have trusted them once. Zarkon was the original black paladin right?" Allura's eyes widened then quickly went back to looking angry.
"That was a long time ago."
"Wait what?" Lance asked.
"Didn't you see how he stole the black lion right from under Shiro?" Keith asked.
"Or that he could do all of that cool stuff with his bayard? Shiro's bayard? You know the black one." I finished.
"Why didn't you just tell us the truth about Zarkon?" Shiro asked.
"I wanted to protect you from the dark history of the paladins so that you would have a chance to bond with the lions on your own. You are the black paladin now, not Zarkon." The princess said.
"Yeah well, the black lion may have a different take on the matter."
"Wait a second." Pidge suddenly said. "I think I found it. Some repeating numbers in this Galra code. Let me extract it." She brought it up on the screen.
"They are coordinates! They lead to the Thaldycon system."
"Then that's where we're headed."
"Shiro, are you sure you can trust this? I mean after all the Galra did to you they...they took your arm." Keith spoke up.
"It's worth the risk. Someone helped me escape. If we can locate some allies in our fight against Zarkon, especially ones from his side, we might just find away to take him down."
"We can check the location but I do not like this. The Galra are not to be trusted." Allura crossed her arms.
"Aw come on Allura give the guy a chance." I spoke up. "I believe Shiro, I think this guy can be good. Galra can change their minds you know, I'm sure not all are bad." I said. Shiro gave me a grateful look while Allura glared.

We wormhole jumped to a place in space. There are floating crystals all around.
"Well this is it. Not sign of activities, alive or otherwise." Coran said. We approached what looked like a belt of crystals, like and asteroid belt, but with crystals. There's a lot.
"Can we get in there to take a closer look?" Shiro asked.
"I don't want to bring the castle any closer. Those xanthorium chunks contain highly unstable nitrate salts. Even bumping one of them can send us straight to Wozblay." The older man said.
"Are you sure this is right?"
"These are the coordinates number six gave me."
"Hey! My decryption is solid!"
"There must be something we're missing." Shiro said, ignoring Pidge.
"Let's get out of here. We checked it out, now it's time to move on." Allura said.
"No, there must be something more. I can feel it. It think we should wait." After waiting a bit and flicking random things at Keith an alarm started blaring.
"There's an intruder in the castle!" Coran exclaimed.
"How can someone just sneak aboard the ship?" Lance asked.
"I knew coming here was a mistake." Allura said and pulled up camera views. "There he is level five."
"Every one suit up."
~~~

I ran down the hall, in hopes of finding this intruder.

"I got him." Lance says.

"Keep eyes on him, we're all headed toward you." Shiro said. I start running to where Lance is.
"Careful, he's faster than an angry klanmüril!" Coran said.
"And he can jump like a sprightly globinheffer!"
"Coran you're not helping!"
"Somebody's as mad as a wet chüper."
"Coming our way number five!" I turn the corner, I can hear Lance's bayard shooting.
"He's dragging Pidge away!" I can hear Hunk shooting.
"Hunk!"
"Sorry guys."
"Hunk failed the team again guys."
"Hey!"
"Korra he's around the corner from you."I skid around the corner and see them and the intruder running towards me. I run towards him and attack but he easily jumps over me, making me almost trip over Pidge, who really is getting dragged. I run after him with the others.
"It's up to Keith now."
"Copy that."
"Oh this is exciting! He has a sword. One young paladin, one seemingly indestructible foe." Coran says. The man turns the corner and Keith slides under Pidge's bayard and starts to run after him. At this point Pidge is screaming and I'm trying hard not to laugh. Come on Korra this is a serious moment.
"Swing and miss! Oh and another swing and miss! He can't touch him he's too fast!" Coran said. Me, Lance, and Hunk turn the corner to see Keith go down another corner. So many corners.
"He knocked his bayard out of his hands! It's on the ground!" I try to run faster, curse my small legs. We go around the corner and Keith comes flying and knocks us all down. We get up and look to see Shiro has his Galra arm to his neck, while the other has his sword his Shiro's neck. We wait. Then the man draws away his sword and pulled his hood down. His mask disappears. A light purple Galra.
"Ulaz?" Shiro says. Allura comes and pins him to the wall.
"Who are you?" She yells. I walk closer.
"Stop! It's him! It's the Galra who set me free." Shiro says.
"You've come." Ulaz says.
~~~
We're now in the lounge, Ulaz having wrist and ankle cuffs on. Allura's idea.
"I don't think this is necessary." Shiro says.
"I will not have some quiznak-ing Galra soldier on my ship!" Allura says, clearly angry
"If I wanted to kill you, you'd be dead already." Ulaz said. I scooted closer to Keith. He's kinda scary.
"Are your Galra threats supposed to win my trust?" Allura responded.
"I'm not trying to win trust. I'm trying to win a war. And because of Shiro we're closer then ever before. Our gamble on you paid off better than we imagined."
"When you released me you said there where others." Shiro spoke up.
"Yes. We're called the Blade of Marmora."
"Uh, others? Are they here?"
"Hunk, can you try not to act so scared in front of the chained up prisoner? It makes us seem a little lame." Lance said. I let out a small chuckle.
"I'm alone on this base." Ulaz answered.
"What is this base your talking about? Shiro's coordinates led us to this wasteland." Allura said.
"The base is hidden. Now that I know it's Shiro that has come, you're welcome to our outpost. It lies dead ahead."
"Behind all the xanthorium clusters?" I asked.
"No. Right in front of it, hidden in a pocket of space-time."
"Coran, are you hearing this?" Allura asked.
"I am picking up some kind of anomaly on the screen. I suppose it could be a cloaked base." He answered.
"Just fly straight for the center of the xanthorium clusters. You will see." Ulaz said.
"You think your going to get me to destroy our ship just because you say so?" Allura said. Man can she at least try to trust this guy? Though, he is from the same race who destroyed her home Planet.
"We came here looking for answers. Are we going to turn back now?" Shiro said.
"You know I trust you Shiro, but this doesn't feel right." Keith spoke up from next to me.
"You know I hate to agree with Keith, but that's ditto from me." Lance said.
"Galra could have implanted the fake memories in your head." Pidge said.
"Oh come one that would be so evil. Which they are, but they would have to come up with some molecular level storage unit, which his hand does have. But to be linked up with memory it would need a direct pathway to his brain which...yeah." Hunk said.
"Oh come on guys." All eyes turned to me. "I'm with Shiro on this one. I feel like we can actually trust Ulaz. Can't we just give him a chance?"
"Thank you, Korra. Ulaz freed me. Without him, we wouldn't be here." Shiro argued. All eyes went to Allura. Who took a deep breath.
"Fine. Slow and steady Coran. Head for the xanthorium cluster."
"Yes, princess. Beginning approach." There are no windows in here, so we can't see it. An alarm sounded.
"Impact imminent. In five, four, three." I grabbed Keith hand.
"Two." He squeezed my hand.
"Woah that's something." Coran said. So I guess we're not dying yet.
"What is it?"
"Putting up the screens." We turned to the screen, to see a tunnel like thing, of colorful light.
"Amazing, they're folding space." Pidge gasped.
"It's like a space taco. Or a space calzone. Or a space-time soup dumpling. And we're the soup. Hey, is there a cafeteria on this thing?" Hunk asked. We leave the tunnel to see a base floating in space.
"Welcome to the Blade of Marmora Communications Base Thaldycon."
