Chapter 29

Back in the main room, Hunk is asleep on his chair. He's snoring, till he almost falls out of his chair and jolts awake.

"What? What'd I miss?" He yells out.

"Oh, nothing important. We've just figured out a plan to beat Zarkon." Lance answers.

"Really? I doze for 10 minutes and you guys figure out how to defeat the forces of evil?"

"You've been asleep for three hours." Pidge said, making Hunk smile sheepishly at her. He then turns to where the rest of us are standing, gathered around a big hologram of Zarkon's ship.

"I think we've got something here. It's dangerous and has a lot of moving parts but if we can coordinate everything right..." Shiro trails off and Kolivan finishes.

"Zarkon's reign will be at an end, and the savagery that's poisoned our universe can finally be cleansed. You've done it, Shiro."

"We did it together." Shiro holds out his hand, Kolivan looks at it then shakes is hand.  

"As long as we stick to the plan, it should work." Allura spoke up.

"It will work. Perhaps then you'll learn not all Galra are bad like Zarkon." Kolivan says. Allura turns to look at Keith, who is busy looking at the hologram.

"I hope not." I notice the look she's giving him. I move to block her view of Keith, ever since we got back and told everyone that Keith is half Galra, she's been giving him dirty looks. We make eye contact, I narrow my eyes slightly at her and she turns away.

"Ulaz was right to trust you." Antok says.

"He sacrificed everything to bring us together. Let's honor him by taking down Zarkon." Shiro says. Hunk, Lance, and Pidge walk over.

"So whats the plan?" Hunk asks. Lance runs over to the hologram.

"The plan is amazing! First, we infect Zarkon's ship with a virus." He makes a funny face and points to the hologram, then slides over to a computer and starts typing. "Then, we make an extra large wormhole and lure Zarkon inside it, zapping him a bajillion light years away." He says, as the hologram goes inside a wormhole and disappears. He then takes on of the hologram panels and runs to the other side of the room, Zarkon's ship hologram pops out of the panel. "Then, when he pops up and is like "Oh, why doesn't my ship work?" Voltron kicks his butt!" He proceeds to make various sound effects. He puts a finger across his nose and deepens his voice. "I'll form the head. That's what you say Shiro." He then bounces around the room.

"Wow. So this is it." Hunk says, sounding uncharacteristically serious.

"I guess the only question is, when do we strike?" I say. Coran types on a holographic keypad and pulls up the plans for the teludav. 

"As soon as we build a teludav large enough to wormhole Zarkon's ship."

"Aw man the teludav again? Does that mean we have to find scaultrite?" Hunk asks.

"That's one of the many things we need." Allura answers.

"Am I sensing another trip to the space mall?" Hunk asks hopefully.

"Am afraid not." Hunk frowns. "This is going to take a lot more scaultrite than we can find in any Unilu shop. For this plan to succeed,we're gonna have to split up.We all have a task to do. Keith, Hunk, and Korra, you'll be in charge of getting the scaultrite. If anyone of us fails, the whole plan fails." 

We're all gathered in the yellow lions hanger, as it will be better for carrying the scaultrite. Keith says goodbye to Shiro while Hunk and Pidge shake each others hands wile crying loudly. Lance pulls me into a bone crushing hug.

"Good luck out there best friend." He says. I squeeze him back as hard as I can, I hear him wheeze.

"You too best friend." We pull apart and he rubs his ribs.

"Geez, have you been working out? Usually when we do our hugs, you're the one being crushed, not me!" We laugh and and I walk over to the other two. Before I could get far, small arms wrapped around me. I looked down to see Pidge giving me a big smile, I smile back and hug her back, lifting her off the ground. She laughs as I put her down, I give her one last smile then walk over to the boys. Keith pulls away from his hug with Shiro and looks at Allura,she gives him a look and looks away, Keith looks at the ground sadly. A hand on my shoulder makes me turn to see Shiro.

"Keep an eye on him?" He asks nodding over to Keith.

"Of course, always." I smile up to him, he smiles back and gives me a small hug. I walk over to Keith.

"Ready?" I ask, he smiles at me and nods. Finally, the three of us get into the yellow lion and fly though a wormhole.

~~~

"Why does Allura get to take a leisurely visit to the Balmera while we have to fly into the belly of a giant space worm to get scaultrite?" Hunk asks from the seat of yellow lion. Keith and I are leaning against boxes behind him.

"You're just jealous that she gets to see your girlfriend." I tease. 

"She's not my girlfriend." Hunk grumbles. Keith speaks up before I could tease Hunk some more.

"You heard Coran, building a huge teludav isn't easy. Everyone has a job to do and this is ours."

"But I always get the worst jobs. Go to a Galra occupied planet to get my lion. Go to a Galra occupies Balmera to get a crystal. Go into the belly of a beast with the only Galra alien team member."

"Hunk!" I stand up, but Keith puts a hand up to stop me.

"I'm not an alien."

"Well, you're kind of an alien. You're way more alien then me or Korra. You're at least some alien. We're-We're none alien." Keith sighs and walks over to Hunk's chair, I go and stand next to him.

"Let's just focus on the job here."

"Yeah. Was your mom alien? Grandpa? How Galra are you?" 

"I don't know."

"Did the Blade of Marmora like, teach you a secret handshake or something."

"No. No one said anything." I can tell Keith was starting to get annoyed.

"The Blade of Marmora, they're real tight-lipped aren't they?I get that your society is secret but is everything secret?"

"Okay, look, its bad enough that Allura hates me now. Can you lay off?"

"Allura doesn't hate you. You just need to give her time to accept the fact that this is who you are." I said and rubbed his arm in a soothing manner.

 "Yeah, that you're part Galra, the race that destroyed her planet and all of her people." Hunk blinked a few times, while I tried to single him to stop. "Yeah, she might hate you a little bit." I face palmed.

"Let's just watch to video Coran uploaded and stay on task. We need to find out how to collect this stuff." Keith said. Hunk pushed a button and the screen went to static before clearing. A much younger looking Coran showed up on screen.

"Hello brave Altean!"

"No way. Is that Coran?" Hunk said while trying to hold back his laughter, I held back the giggles.

"So you're about to go into the belly of the weblum to harvest scaultrite. Good for you! Scaultrite is an important substance with thousands of commercial uses, including fabrication foam,insect night vision goggles, teludav-" The video went all staticky, cutting Coran off.

"Uh.." We stared at the screen, every so often hearing Coran still listing things.

"What's wrong with the video?" I ask.

"It's 10,000 years old. Its probably corroded." Hunk answered and pushed some buttons. The video screen cleared.

"I could go on for days, but you've got a weblum to enter and scaultrite to collect." Coran turned to the side. "Oh look, there's a weblum now. Hello there big fella!" Somebody in a weblum costume came into the frame.

"Hey Coran! I'm off to eat some planets, There's one now!" The weblum walked off.

"We'll see you soon! As you probably remember from school the weblum is an enormous creature and an integral part of of keeping our universe functioning. It survives off the-" The screen went to static, when it cleared it showed a diagram of the inside a weblum. "...left over from dead planets. It reconverts the quintessence remnants by-" Static again, now showing Coran in front a screen of planets. "...becoming building blocks of the solar system. Incredible isn't it?" The screen went to static once more. The boys and I looked at each other nervously.

"Of course these are no gentle giants. They're actually quite deadly. Which leads to rule number one. Its an important one, so listen closely. Stay away from its-" Static. "You got that?"

"No, no I didn't."

"It's like a rhyme so say it with me. Stay away from its-" The screen goes to static again.

"Oh come on!"

"Other things to remember include avoiding the poisonous-...eye sockets-...could lead to certain death!" I sigh.

"Whoa what are those?" Hunk asks, looking out the window. Keith and I look out to see what looks like destroyed rocks, pieces floating all around.

"They look like, dead planets." Keith says.

"That's strange. The charts I'm looking at says the planets should be thriving right now." Hunk says.

"What do you think happened to them?" I ask.

"Asteroid strike?"

"Something tells me they died an unnatural death." Keith says making me shudder.

"Look!" Hunk yells out. I look over to see the weblum flying by. Man that thing is huge.

"Looks like that ancient weblum tracker put us right on the money."

"We gotta get out of here! We haven't watched the whole video yet! We don't know what to do!" Hunk says.

"We're not leaving. You fly keep our distance I'll skim through the video." Keith says.

"So you've made it to the weblum's first stomach!"

"Rewind!"

"I know!"

"You've identified a weblum. Great! Remember rule number one, stay away from its face." Coran says as he flies in front of the weblum.

"Wait, that's rule number one? We broke rule number one!" The weblum opened its mouth.

"Get us out of the way, now!" Hunk moved the lion out of the way just as the weblum shot a huge blue laser. Hunk continued to move us out of the way while Keith fiddled with the video.

"The weblum's natural defenses-venomous laser-deadly acid-total annihilation-death monster-to find its blind spot on the back of its neck, just below the gills."

"That's your way inside! If I can't see ya, I can't kill ya!" Hunk grunted as he turned the yellow lion around flew to the back of the weblum's neck. He bounced around on the quills.

"This isn't good, this isn't good." He chanted. Hunk ran into one of the quills, sending the yellow lion on its back. Hunk managed to attach the lion with its claws.

"We're attached to its back, in its blind spot."

"Good. We're going in." I said, I'm ready to get this over with.

"Wait, what do we do when we're inside?" Hunk ask.

"A quick recap of what to do when you're inside." Coran in the video spoke up.

"Well that's convenient." I said.

"One, avoid things that want to kill you. Two, get to third stomach and find the scaultrite gland. Three, activate the weblum's defense mechanisms and collect the excess material from the gland. That's the scaultrite!"

"Seems simple enough." Keith said.

"Seems under-explained."

"Come on." Keith said making Hunk sigh.
