I gotta warn ya'll this is one of my worst chapters. It's one big fight scene and I am h o r r i b l e at writing fight scene cause I don't know how to write them. But enjoy anyways it's still a good one

"We've gotta act fast. The power will be down for only 20 minutes. The Blade of Marmora's schematics showed four targets we need to hit. The weapons system, the engines, the bridge, and the shield generators. Now, let's put an end to Zarkon, once and for all."
"Yeah!" We all yelled after Shiro's words.
"Form sword!" We got out the sword, the big blue one, and started to slide it against the ship, small explosions following.
"Hit the engine systems!" Voltron stabbed the side of the ship, making a huge blast. We then went to sliding the sword on the sides again. We flew up a bit and shot at the ship, then went back down with the sword.
"Stay focused. We've neutralized the engines. Let's target the bridge." At Shiro's words we started to fly up, a noise made us stop. Below us was a big purple sphere.
"What is that?" Lance asked, as we kept flying up. Suddenly a black tendril like magic shot out from the sphere, hitting Voltron right in the torso. Right at the Pink lion. We all screamed. Oh god, the pain. It felt like the energy was draining from me, from us, from Voltron.
Darkness filled my vision.
When I came too, who knows how long I've been out. Could have been minutes, or hours. I could hear Shiro talking. God, my body hurts, my head is pounding. I'm weak. But, I'm calm. Is this what it's like to be close to death?
"Is Voltron operational?" I hear Allura ask. I reach with a shaky hand to the controls. Nothing works.
"It's not working." Hunk says.
"I can't move my lion." Oh thank goodness Keith is okay.
"You've been hit with some kind of witchcraft that draws the quintessence out of you. You need to get out of there! Another blast like that and you may not survive!" Coran says.
"If it drew out the quintessence." I wheeze. "Why do I feel like...I've been ran over multiple times." I wince and wrap an arm around my waist.
"Hey, hey you don't sound so good." Keith says, worry being heard clearly in his voice.
"The magic hit the Pink lion directly, it could have done extra damage to you. Now you really need to get out so we can give you medical attention!" Coran all but yells.
"Wait, what is that?" We all look up at Lance's words. A hatch is opening from the side of Zarkon's ship. Slowly out comes out a giant robot like suit, which looks like Zarkon.
"You must get out. Remember your training." Allura says.
"Voltron's still not responding." The robot's eyes light up.
"It's Zarkon." Shiro says. I grab the controls, ignoring the ache in my arms. Zarkon flies toward Voltron.
"Listen to me." Allura says. "You are true paladins now. Connect with your lions, reach out to each other. Fight! This can not end now!" Allura shoots the castles laser at Zarkon, which pushes him back. Zarkon uses his shield to deflect the laser and get it to shoot back at the castle. I could hear Allura's scream echo in my ears.
"Allura!" We all stare at the castle. It's silent for a moment, before Shiro starts to speak.
"Everybody, listen. We have to fight. We have to channel our energy. Visualize five becoming one. We have to focus everything we have into moving Voltron." Zarkon stands up. "We are the last thing standing in the way of Zarkon's total universal domination. I'm not giving up that fight. Are you Hunk?"
"No." The Yellow lion lights up.
"Pidge?"
"Never!" The Green lion lights up.
"Lance?"
"Let's go down swingin'." The Blue lion.
"Keith?"
"I'm all in." The Red lion.
"Korra...I know you're in a lot of pain-"
"That's the last thing on my mind. I'm fighting until my last breath." The Pink lion lights up. Zarkon forms a sword and heads towards Voltron as it powers back on.
"Then let's get Voltron back in this battle."
We form the sword as Zarkon crashes into us. We block every hit he tried. Voltron then flies away, Zarkon not far behind. We fly around, avoiding Zarkon and shooting him with lasers.
"All right, let's hit him with the big guns. Hunk, form shoulder cannon." I wheeze as I push buttons to help with the cannon.
"Fire!" We shoot the big laser, only for Zarkon to form a shield and easily block it. The magic comes at us once again.
"Look out!" We move out of the way. Zarkon uses our distraction to kick the side of Voltron and send us flying. I groan as the impact made the pain flare. Black dots dance in my vision, I shake my head. No, I can't go out yet.
We continue to shoot at Zarkon, he dodges everyone. We crash into each other as Zarkon and Voltron push their swords against each other. Zarkon gains the upper hand and knocks us back. We try to shoot at him again, but he puts up his shield.
"We've never faced anything this powerful before." Pidge speaks up as we fly away.
"One way or another, this may be our last battle. We've gotta give everything we've got. Dig deep and fight!" Shiro says. I hear a beep, I look on my screen to see Keith had, somehow managed in all this, set up a private comm with just me and him.
"How are you doing, Korra?" I wince.
"I'm hanging in there." I say. I'm actually sweating buckets from the strain. My body is screaming at me to stop. I'm shaking from the stress, the anxiety.
"Stay strong. I love you." Bless Keith for being able to make me smile, even while we're fighting Zarkon.
"I love you too." (God this part is so cheesy I wanna vomit.)
We continue to go back and forth with Zarkon. Slashing, blasting, crashing, blocking. It's almost an endless cycle. We eventually crash into him again, Voltron and Zarkon pushing against each other, but not moving.
"He's trying to control my lion. I can feel him in my mind." Shiro speaks up.
"Fight it, Shiro!" Keith encourages. We back up, the we all yell as we stab the sword towards Zarkon. We cut through his arm, he pushes us back. He has a chain attached to Voltron, the chain sends a shock so powerful, we all scream and the lions are forced apart. The pain is now ten times worse.
"Shiro? Shiro? Somethings wrong with Shiro." Keith pauses. "Wait, Korra? Korra!" Tears threaten to fall from my eyes, I do nothing to stop them. I lay back in my chair, my body refusing to move.
"I'm awake...but I...I can't move." I say quietly.
"Hang in there Korra. This will be over soon." Lance says.
"Guys, we can't let Zarkon get the Black Lion. Korra, you stay there. Try and get some strength back while we handle this." Keith says. I go to protest, but all that comes out is a groan. I lean back and try to focus my breathing. Stay strong.
"Keep Zarkon away from the Black Lion!"
"Come on! We can't give up!"
"I'm running out of strength, man."
"Look out!"
All I can hear is their screams. I sit up, ignoring my body's protests. I can't just sit here. I fly forward and shoot at Zarkon. Movement makes me turn and see the Black Lion flying towards Zarkon. The red wings on the back suddenly glow and grow. The Black lion fly's through Zarkon.
"Whoa...what did you just do?" Asks Lance.
"I've got Zarkon's bayard."
"You mean you got your bayard." I speak up. Shiro starts to speak again.
"We've only got a few minutes left before power returns to Zarkon's ship. Form Voltron!"
We go at Zarkon again. The cycle of clashing and blocking and slashing.
"Hello paladins!" We all gasp at Coran's voice.
"You're alive!"
"Is everyone okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine! Don't worry guys!"
"Oh great, Slav made it."
As we continue to fight Zarkon, his ship starts to light up.
"The power on Zarkon's ship is returning! We need to get out of here. I'm going to get Allura."
We keep up at the flying and crashing. We aim the sword at Zarkon and fly towards him.
"This is our last chance! Let's finish this!" Shiro says. Everybody grunts as we push the controls. My body is still screaming at me to stop.
We finally stab Zarkon. Zarkon grabs Voltron's head, Shiro. The blade suddenly changes to a sword of fire. We shove the sword deeper into Zarkon. His body glows as we pull out the blade. Then finally he bursts, the blast forcing the lions apart once again. The impact forces me against my chair. My vision starts to turn black. This time, I don't fight it.
~~~
Lance groans as he looks up. The lions are spread apart, no sign of Zarkon.
"Did we do it?" He asks. The Yellow Lion moves as Hunk speaks.
"Is it over?" The castle approaches, Zarkon's body floating in space.
"I have Allura and Kolivan. We need to go!" Coran says. Keith looks over to see the Black and Pink lion not moving.
"Shiro and Korra!"
"We need to tow them back into the ship!" Pidge says. She and Keith grab the Black lion while Lance and Hunk take the Pink lion.
"Princess. we're all on board." Pidge tells Allura. Allura opens a wormhole and the ship quickly fly's through. As soon as they exit Keith runs toward the lions. He looks between the lions laying on the floor before running to the Pink Lion, Lance hot on his tail. They both enter the lion. The doors slide open, they see the back of the chair and Korra's hand dangling from the side. They rush over, Lance pulls off her helmet while Keith inspects her. He puts his head on her chest.
ba-bump ba-bump
Keith heaves a sigh of relief.
"She's alive." He tells Lance, Lance visibly relaxes.
"Let's get her to the infirmary." He says. Keith picks his girlfriend up and walks out to the others. Pidge bounds over.
"Is she okay? How is she? Is she dead?" She asks all at once.
"She's alive, but won't be if we don't get her to that healing pod." Keith says. His eyes go to the Black Lion. Lance notices.
"I'll take Korra to that pod, you go see is Shiro is okay." Keith looks gratefully at Lance. He hands Korra over and Lance runs out the room. Coran has been setting up the pod. Keith runs into the Black lion, the others behind him.
"Shiro?" They all look around. Shiro's bayard is sticking out from the hole that they put it in to make the weapons for Voltron. But Shiro's not in the lion.
"He's...gone."
