Hey dear readers, sorry its been a while I had strep throat, you can thank my mom for giving it to me.

Hey guys! Comment what you guys want to know about Korra so i can can keep doing random Korra facts! 

_______________________________________

We all stared at Shiro with confused looks. I wanted to say I knew it, I told you guys. I told you Keith it wasn't you. 

"Okay look, I know know for certain Zarkon is tracking us through the black lion. We have to find some way to stop him." Shiro said.

"How are we going to do that?" Pidge asked.

"We've never had this situation before. Two paladins fighting for the same lion." Allura said.

"Well unless we want Zarkon to take control every time we get close, I'll have to forge a new bond with my lion. One that's stronger than his." Shiro explained.   

"While you're doing that the rest of us need to find some new teludav lenses otherwise we won't be able to travel via wormhole." Coran spoke up.

"Is this something we have to mail order?" Hunk asked.

"Does anyone even make them anymore?" Keith then asked.

"I don't know. Only a few Alteans could use the teludav 10,000 years ago. They may not exist any more." Allura said. Coran tugged his mustache then spoke up.

"I think I might know where to get some." Coran went over to the giant screen ad pulled up some pictures of weirdly dressed people. Allura gasped.

"Coran! You're not suggesting going to one of those filthy swap moons! The last time you went those space pirates took you for everything you had." She said while crossing her arms and frowning.  

"Space pirates?"

"The Unilu were traders and pirates that roamed the galaxy and dealt in black market goods. Umvy spice, by-tor water, little bottles of infinity vapor. Of course you had to bargain and nobody  can bargain like the Unilu." Coran went on about trading something for something, I can never keep up with the Altean words.

"Father was not pleased about that." Allura chuckled. 

"Well while Coran is picking up the lenses I'll take you shopping for something sparkly." Lance said while sliding up to Allura, when Coran suddenly pushed between them.

"This isn't shopping! You're not wondering around saying "What a lovely pink hat! This is so becoming!" No! I can't allow Allura to get near any of those filthy, lowballing Unilu hoodlums." Coran said.

"But I'd love something sparkly." She said while giving Coran a begging look.

"Look you're the only one who can fly the castle. You need to be resting after all you've been through." Coran said making Allura's shoulders sag.

"Now, lets get a  pod ready for our mission. We need to get on find the lenses and get out."Coran said.

"Shotgun!" Lance said and started running.

"What! No! You have to be in the pod bay to call shotgun!" Hunk said while running after him. Pidge started running after them.

"Since when?"

"Since forever? It's shotgun etiquette! I wrote the book." I chuckled and started walking after them. A hand slipped into mine, I didn't have to look up to know who it was. 

"I'm sorry."

"Huh?" I looked over at Keith, he kept his gaze forward as we walked to the pod.

"I'm sorry for leaving you like that." He said.

"Its fine, Keith. I admit I was mad at first but I understand you did what you thought was best." I told him. He finally turned and gave me the kiss that I've been waiting for.

"Hey can you guys stop smooching for a minute and get in the pod?"

~~~

"Hello? Back passengers can you hear me?" Coran said through the intercom. He and Lance are at the front, while the rest of  us are in the back. Keith and I sat leaning against the walls on the bench, my leg resting on top of one of his. Hunk and Pidge sat across from us, Hunk had his arms crossed with a frown on his face.

"Oh its so comfy up here. Extra leg room, heated seats. Oh man!" Lance bragged.

"Stupid Lance. Stupid shotgun." Hunk grumbled as Coran started speaking again.

"Now these swamp moons are very dangerous environments. So be on your toes. No weapons or communication devices. Also I've brought along some disguises."

~~~

When Coran was talking about swamp moons that is what I was expecting. A moon. With a swamp. Not this. We are inside a mall. A space mall. Don't even get me started on the 'disguises' Coran brought. They're ridiculous. Like some cheap cosplay. Coran had me put on a black mask that covered the bottom half my face, a black cape that flowed to the ground and a ridiculous amount of straps.

"Uh Coran, this Unliu meet up looks awful lot like a regular mall." Pidge said, her voice muffled by the mask she's wearing.    

"It does seems a bit cleaner than I remember. Still be vigilant. The Unliu are cut throat wheeler dealers. So keep your hands on your coin satchels." Coran said.

"Uh my satchels are empty." Hunk said while twisting to look at it.

"Good."

"Let's just get this over with." Keith said.

"Yes, right. Everyone lets fan out and search the area for the lenses. We'll meet by the giant ticking clock here in one vaga. Don't be late and try to blend in." We all watched Coran walk off. 

"Wanna ditch the costumes?"

"Oh yeah."     

~~~

After tossing the costumes in the nearest trash can we all went our separate ways. Pidge and Lance ran off yelling something about an gameflux while Hunk spotted the food court and ran in that direction, which left me and Keith.

"So which way should we go?" He asked. I shrugged. He sighed.

"Let's just go this way." He said and started walking, making me jog to catch up to him. I walked slightly behind him, looking around to see if I can spot anything to do with the lenses. Keith suddenly stopped making me run into his back, I was about to ask what he was doing but he was looking at a multi armed alien talking about and showing off knifes.

"I'm going to talk about him, see if he knows anything about, you know." Keith said while nodding to his knife that was strapped to his waist.

"Okay, I'll go look over here." I said and pointed to the various booths. He nodded and walked over to the alien.

I went over and stared at the booths. One particular one caught my eye. There was all different kinds of jewelry and gems and crystals. The alien running the booth, who was helping a customer, had blue skin and hair. I approached and looked at the all the necklaces, not wanting to bother her while she was talking. I was never the one for jewelry, especially since we weren't allowed at the Garrison. The thing that drew me in was the the necklaces that had colored crystals strung on black string.

"Love crystals?" I murmured to myself. The heck are those. I picked up a dark pink colored one and looked at it closely. It just looks like one of those necklaces you see hippies wear saying they brought 'good vibes'.

"So you interested in the love crystals?" I let out a small scream and threw the necklace in the air at the sudden voice. After struggling to catch the necklace I looked up to see the blue haired alien looking at me with a smirk making me blush.

"What are they?" I asked once I calmed my heart. The girl grabbed one of the necklaces and held it up for me to see.

"The love crystals are necklaces that couples wear. See you and your partner get a necklace." She grabbed another necklace. "And what you do is you kiss a crystals." She puts one to her lips and the crystal glows. "Then your partner kisses the other one." The does the same thing to the other one. "And what that does it puts a small piece of your love in the crystal." I raised an eyebrow.

"A small piece of your love?" She chuckled at my statement.

"Yes as cheesy as it sounds it does. Anyway, you give your partner the one you kissed and vise versa. Now for the best part. When you say I love you to your crystal, your partners glows, no matter where in the universe they are. Same for when they say it." She finishes. I look down at the crystal in my hand.

"Oh!" She says making me look up at her. "I almost forgot." She takes one of the crystals in her hands and pops off the end. "There's a hole in these, so you can roll up a picture of your partner, you and your partner and stick them in there. You have a lover?" She asked. I look over to the knife booth to see Keith arguing with alien behind the counter. I sigh, making the blue haired alien chuckle.

"We all have our tastes. So you interested." I go to nod but but frown.

"I don't have any money." I can hear the alien trying to buy Keith's knife.

"It's on the house. There's something special about you." I go to refuse but I see Keith wrestling the knife out of the aliens hands. I grab a dark red crystal and shove that and the pink one in my pocket as Keith runs by and yanks my arm making me run with him.

"Time to go!" He yells.

~~~

After running for a while we think we're okay. We stop at the bathrooms while Keith goes in I stand outside and fiddle with the crystal necklaces. I quickly shove them back in my pockets when Keith walks out. Before we could keep walking Hunk runs up and grabs Keith's shoulders.

"Keith! He's right behind me!" He yells.

"Who?" A hoverbike whizzes by, the backs back up, there's a Galra on the bike and he's glaring at the three of us.

"Pirate number two and three! My lucky day." We yelp as he starts to drive towards us and we take off running. We run past a store that Pidge and Lance are walking out of.

"Time to go guys!" Hunk yells as he runs past.

"Security's on our tail!" Keith yells.

"Don't stare guys, run!" I yell.

"There's the rest of the crew!" I hear the Galra yell. I look back to see Pidge and Lance running and for some reason Lance is dragging a cow on a hover board. I turn back around and gasp when I see we're approaching the railing.

"Everyone up on Kaltenecker!" Lance yells. I slow down a bit to catch up with the cow.

"Did you buy a cow?" Keith asks. Keith shoves me up before him, with the help of Pidge. I hold on to Keith's hand as we go over the railing, poor Hunk is holding on to Kaltenecker's tail.

"It was free with purchase!" I pulled Keith up as he pulled Hunk up. We all yelled as we hit the ground with the Galra behind us.

"Anyone know where Coran is?" I ask. As I say that we see in walk out of a store.

"There he is!" Says Pidge.

"We gotta go Coran!" I say to him. We fly past the store, Coran running to catch up.

"I got the scaultrite lenses!" He says as Hunk pulls him up. It's starting to get cramped on the cow. I'm pressed up against Pidge and Keith is against my back. With some more screaming we finally reach the mall entrance.

"You better run!" The Glara runs. Lance leans up.

"Oh so you can't follow us outside, huh?" He starts taunting the Glara, when I notice a part of the ceiling that's lower that the rest.

"Lance!" My warning comes to late as Lance whacks against it, causing him to fall off Kaltenecker. The Galra laughs.

~~~

"We got our lenses!" Coran says as we enter the main room. Allura looks up from the mice doing her hair, and wow, that's some hair.

"Excellent! Now we can get the teludav up and running." She says as she runs over.

"Where's Shiro?" Keith asks. The door behind us slides open. Shiro walks in, smiling at all of us.

"What did you do, take a nap?" Allura asks.

"Not exactly." Shiro stands next to us. His smile slides off when he sees Kaltenecker. "Is that a cow?"

"Mm-hmm his name is Kaltenecker." Lance says, the said cow moos. Shiro stares at them with a raised eyebrow.

"So did you find a way to bond with your lion?" Keith asks.

"Yes and we need to get moving. We're heading for the Blade of Marmora's headquarters." We all stared at him for a few seconds, then Coran spoke up.

"I'll plot a course!"

"While your doing that, I'm going to hook up the video game me and Lance bought." Pidge says excitedly and runs off with Lance. Keith goes to walk off but I reach for his hand.

"Hey, Keith!" He stops and turns to me with a questioning look. I suddenly get nervous and start fidgeting.

"Well, at the space mall I got these." I say, deciding just to be straightforward. I pull out the necklaces, he looks at them cursorily. I quickly explain how they work.

"And yeah, I don't know if you're into jewelry or something like this for that matter. Oh I should have asked before I got them." Keith cuts off my nervous rambling by snatching the dark pink one and pressing a kiss to it making it glow. I stare at him.

"Well aren't you going to do it?" He asks with a small blush. I shake my head and kiss the dark red crystal, making it glow. We switch necklaces and put them on.

"I admit, this is the first necklace I've ever worn, but, I like it." He says. A smile blooms on my face as I throw my arms around him and yank him down for a kiss.

"NOOOOOOOOO" We turn to see Pidge and Lance crying around their gaming system. That's when I realize there's no where in the castle to hook it up.
