Season 4 makes me want to scream in happiness but cry in sadness

"Now if you'll free me I need to send a message to the leadership. They need to know I made contact with Voltron." Ulaz said as he stood up.
"Go with him and keep an eye on him. I'm staying here." Allura said.
"Can we go?" Hunk asked.
"I wanna see how they make the space pocket!" Pidge said with stars in here eyes.
"You guys go a head. I'll hang back a protect the Princess." Lance said smugly
"Ugh..." We all went in Keith's lion and flew towards the ship.
"This is the gravity generator that creates the space time fold. It was created by a reclusive genius engineer names Slav. His technology allows the Blade of Marmora to remain hidden while we work to take down the Galra empire. Zarkon would do anything to get his hands on this technology." Ulaz explained.
"There are Galra out there who aren't loyal to Zarkon?" Keith asked.
"We thought expanding the Galra Empire would bring stability. We learned too late. He didn't want stability, only power."
~~~
Now inside the ship, I stood next to Keith as he looked out one of the glass walls.
"With our members working on the inside, planning coordinated attacks with Voltron, we may finally have a chance." Ulaz said. Keith and I walked over to where Ulaz and the others were standing at a control panel.
"So, you have agents working within Zarkon's ranks?" I asked. Ulaz turned to me.
"How do you think you got away from Zarkon in that last fight? Do you think those shields around Zarkon's command center went down on their own? We've got people risking their lives in this war, just like you." Ulaz said, sounding slightly angry.
"If you have people on the inside, can they tell me where my family is? They were taken the same time Shiro was." Pidge rushed out.
"I knew others from Earth were captured. I never saw them, but I have some records of Galra prisoners here. I can transmit them to your ship." Ulaz said and bent over the control panel. Keith, who I noticed was staring intensely at Ulaz's sword, spoke up.
"What's that weapon you carry?" Ulaz grabbed it and showed it to Keith.
"It's a ceremonial blade, that each member of our order carries."
"Hmm, nice." Keith said. Suddenly an alarm blares. A screen pulled up, showing the clusters, pin pointing a small ship.
"Oh, no." Ulaz said, that's when I realized it was a Galra ship.
"You were tracked!" Ulaz said as he turned to us with a frown.
"What? Us?"
"If Zarkon knows we're here, it's because you ratted is out!" Keith said. The ship got closer and opened, revealing a ship that was in the shape of a face. I'm guessing it was a Galra soldier.
"It's another one of Zarkon's robot... beasts..ro-beasts!"
"We have to get back to the ship!"
"Shiro wait. These are instructions on how to reach the Blade of Marmora's headquarters. Before you go there find out how Zarkon is tracking you. If you lead him there, our entire underground network, everything we've spent centuries building, will be lost."

Flying back to the castle.
"I knew he could not be trusted!" Allura said.
"It wasn't him." Shiro said.
"How can you be sure?"
"It doesn't matter now. What do we do?" Coran interrupted.
"Why can't we hide here and wait for it to go away?" Hunk asked.
"Everyone get to your lions, but don't launch yet. We'll wait to see what this thing does. I don't want to risk fighting it if we don't have to." Shiro said.
"We should be safe as long as we're hidden in the space pocket." Pidge said after we got to our lions. The robot opened it's mouth and a large beam of light came out. I sat waiting for a beam to come shooting at us. But instead, it began sucking up the xanthorium clusters.
"He's drawing in the xanthorium clusters." Coran said. It closed its mouth, then shot a big laser, causing some of the clusters to explode. It began flying forward, towards the space pocket.
"I think he knows we're here." I said.
"Hold.." The robot opened it's mouth and shot another laser.
"Direct hit! He definitely knows we're here!"
"Get the partical barrier up!" It shot more lasers, then sucked in more clusters.
"He's readying another attack!" Coran said. The castle starting moving forward.
"He's pulling us in as well! Paladins I think it's time to launch."
"Form Voltron!"
Voltron shot out of the space pocket and landed a punch on the robot, just as he shot out a laser, causing some more explosions.
"We're exposed! The space fold had been lowered." Allura said. I turned to see that in fact the castle and command center is no longer in the space pocket. A small ship leaves the command center.
"Well there goes Ulaz." Coran said.
"I knew we should have never trusted a Galra!" Allura said. I rolled my eyes, we get it Allura you said it about twenty times now. Voltron continues so slice and punch the robot.
"Let's light this thing up!"
"Fire lasers!" I've always wanted to say that. We shot the lasers from the lions at the robot, pushing him back. The robot turned and started pulling in more clusters.
"He's pulling in more ammo!"
"Move, move, move!" Shiro yelled as we flew towards the clusters. The robot shot a big red laser, causing clusters to explode and hit Voltron. We all yelled as Voltron was thrown by the blasts.
"Lance, Hunk give me full reverse boosters!" The boosters came on and stopped Voltron. A purple light suddenly surrounded us, and we began moving backwards.
"We're getting sucked in!" I yelled. We tried moving out of the way, only to run into clusters, causing explosions.
"This thing wants to eat us like we're a space taco!" Hunk said as we got closer. We put Voltron's legs on the robot to prevent us from being sucked in, and tried to push against it's arms as they were holding us in place.
"I'll make him back off." Keith said. He got out his lions jaw blade and stabbed the robot. We quickly flew away when it let us go.
"We've gotta keep some distance between us and that ro-beast!" The beast shot multiple lasers, making the cluster explosions throw us around. We moved and the beast tried pulling us in again. We tried the reverse boosters again.
"I'm using the thrusters at full capacity and it's not making any difference!" Lance yelled. A blue laser comes out of nowhere and makes the ro-beast fly backwards.
"Is everyone alright?" Allura asked.
"Alive. Yes. All right. No."
"It's going for the castle." Keith suddenly said. And sure enough, the robot was pulling in the castle.
"We need someway to stop it's tractor beam."
"I got an idea. Pidge, form shield." Shiro said. Pidge formed the shield and we flew to the beast.
"We can use the shield to block the beam!" We put the shield on the ro-beast and punched it, making it flip back.
"We stopped the beam now what?" I asked.
"No, we go on the offensive."
"The xanthorium clusters, we can use them!" Pushing on the shield, we shoved the beast over to where a bunch of the clusters are. We retracted the shield as a big explosion went off. Just as we thought we were done, a red laser came out. We put up the shield just in time. We all yelled as alarms went off and as we were being shoved back.
"The shield can't handle this much power!" We flew back and the beast tried again with pulling us in.
"We might not be strong enough to beat this thing!" Hunk said.
"Hang on!" A familiar voice said.
"Ulaz?" Ulaz's ship was hurdling towards the beast.
"I'm going to take it down from the inside."
"Ulaz, no let us handle this." Shiro said.
"Voltron is too valuable. The universe needs you." Ulaz said and flew inside the beast. The beast flew towards us, but suddenly stopped. The beast began to spaz and shrink.
"Ulaz opened the space pocket. It's folding in on it's self!" Pidge said as a small explosion went off. Both the ro-beast beast and Ulaz we're gone.
"He did it!"
"Ulaz saved us!"
"He's...gone."

After all of that, I changed back into my normal clothes. Leaving my jacket behind, I went next door to Keith room. I knocked on the door.
"Keith? It's me."
"Come in." He said after a few moments of silence. The door slid open, Keith was sitting on his bed. He looked up and sent me a soft smile.
"Hey." I said as I sat next to him.
"Hey." He said.
"So, I heard that Shiro is trying to figure out how we're being tracked. You have any idea?" I asked. He shook his head.
"No idea. I just want to get to this Blade of Marmora headquarters."
"Why don't want to get there so badly?" I asked and tilted my head. He hesitated.
"Can I tell you something. Something that you can't tell anyone else." He said very seriously.
"Yeah. Yeah of course." He reached behind him and grabbed the knife I always see him carry. He unwrapped the cloth that's on the handle and handed it to me. I looked at the blade. There was a symbol on it, that looks really familiar.
"That's the same symbol that was on Ulaz's sword." I said.
"Yeah." He took the knife back. "I guess this is a Blade of Marmora thing."
"How long have you had this.?"
"For as long as I can remember. I don't remember who gave it to me. But you can't tell anyone about it. Not yet." He said.
"Okay." I said.
"Thank you." He said and pulled me into a hug.
