So I figured that rewriting the whole season 8 isn't the best idea, and there is a lot of boring and unnecessary stuff, plus a lot of stuff would have stayed the same. To sum this up, I won't be rewriting the whole season. I will start now of the point where the war ends, and everything is practically okay -it basically starts in the middle of the last episode in s8, still I won't rewrite it, I'll make it my way-

Here are some small things that are different from the canon, so it will fit now.

-Allura is alive (Only Honerva died)

-Lance never kissed Allura and doesn't have the Altean marks

-There aren't any news about Adam (no I didn't forget him)

-Matt has long hair

(Tell/ask me if I forgot something (also, don't like it, don't read it))

The flight back was more quite. Yes sure, they were happy that it was over and they could scream out of happiness, but they spent so much time in space, it's almost unbelievable. They met so much new, well not people, but they made a lot of new friends, discovered a lot of things, that also could be good information for astrologists and the like. 

To be short, they are nervous. Nervous that it's all a dream and they will wake up any moment in the lions, in dorms, in a hospital, and the war is not over. It's hard to believe that it's over. They need time to let that sink in.

They want to go back to their families as fast as possible, they want them to see that the are alive, and are doing fine. Of course this whole adventure will let a small trauma on them, but it#s alright. let's just say it was the best and the worst time they've ever had.

The lions and the Atlas land on earth, and everyone stays silent, not moving, just processing the situation.

"Guys" Pidge is the first one to say something "Is it really over?"

"Yeah" Keith almost whispers

"We really can go home now and not worry?" she asks again

"I can't believe it's over" Lance says, not answering Pidge's question

"Is everyone alright?" Shiro asks now, to check up on everyone

They all answer either with a quite 'yes' or just with a hum.

After some time everyone was slowly leaving the ships, still a little it scared. Once they were out, doctors came to them to check up on them, making sure they are physically okay.

The whole process took a while. The check up, talking with therapists if some needed it, talking with family, getting comfortable again, relaxing if it was possible in such a shot amount of time. After the check up some ate something, some went to sleep. They for sure needed time for themselves, before they face more people tan they could handle right now.

It took maybe between one and three weeks for the most to recover, not everyone, some can't get over things easily.

However Pidge, Allura, Hunk, Lance, Keith, Shiro, and Coran decided to meet up. Something like a normal friends meet up. Catch up on each other life, even though they didn't really do anything. 

"So" Shiro starts "How are you all holding up?"

"It's okay, a little bit weird, but okay" Hunk answers first

Allura nods in agreement "yeah. I'm still a little bit scared that it isn't over and I will get an alarm any time saying to get ready for another attack" she looks down on her hands, and Coran hugs her to comfort her a little, letting her feel safe.

"I fully understand" Shiro also agrees "But I try not to think of it"

"I've been spending a lot of time with my family" Lance says "I'm scared they will, somehow,  disappear" the room falls in silence.

They just don't know what to say. there isn't even a lot to say, they spent the most time with each other, in space. Then they came back and did almost nothing except thinking. They got used to each other, maybe they just need the company right now, no words, just the company.  

As time passed everyone slowly got used to the, well, normal life. As normal as it can be after a space war.

But they are happy. Happy that it's finally over, that they don't need to worry, coming back, have Earth in peace again.

One thing that probably drastically changed, is that now aliens also live on Earth. Galra, Alteans, Balmerians, well you get the idea. 

In fact, Hunk has been spending more and more time with Shay, telling her about his past life, what else happened in space. And they just got even closer.

Keith has also spend some time with the other Galra. His mother, Kolivian, Acxa, Zethrid, Ezor, and other Blades.

Lance, of course, spends some time with Nyma, Rolo, and- I guess almost everyone he got to meet in space. But also he got close with his family again. He is telling them everything that happened to him. His family was on first place all this time. And since he is with his family again, he also spends a lot of time on their farm, also one of the best things in his family.

Pidge, like the really smart person she is, has been spending a lot of time with Robots and her brother. She and Matt have been constructing a robot. This scientific thing that the most people around them don't understand.

Coran was friendly with everyone, but most he is telling kids space stories, not the space war ones, but fairy-tales that have stuck with him since he was a kid. He needs to pass this stories on.

Allura spends a lot of time with Romelle, they also got really close. Allura, in fact, still couldn't believe that she is actively talking with Alteans again. It's probably one of the things that make her really happy right now.

You get the idea. Everyone is happy, everyone is friendly with each other, the war is over. That still doesn't mean that small things aren't happening in space, but they don't need to worry, the Blade of Marmora are handling it, and other people who volunteered. 

Well, as much as they love their family and new friends, they still spend time with each other, the Paladins of the lions and Coran and Shiro.

"So Hunk, a little birdy told me that you and Shay have something going on" Lance wiggles his eyebrows 

"Have, have you been talking something that you're talking with birds?" Keith says sarcastically. Lance hits is shoulder and crosses his arms. "Just joking, calm down" he says, with a smile on his face.

Hunk chuckles at Keith's remark and answers Lance question "We actually got really good friends"

"Yeah, friends" Lance rolls his eyes. Noe Keith is the one to punch him in his shoulder. Lance turns to Keith a glares, a little, at him. "What the heck, Keith" 

"Give Hunk and Shay time" he whispers. They sit up again and let this conversation go.

Shiro sighs "However, good luck with her" he smiles 

"Thanks, I will need it" 

"Wish Matt luck too. He has been flirting with an aliens girl instead of working with me on our robot" Pidge in a somewhat annoyed tone

"Don't be harsh on him, Pidge" Shiro starts "He has been in space for a really long time, longer than you, give him the fun" Pidge just rolls her eyes

"That's unfair, I also want someone to flirt with me" Lance whines

Keith rolls his eyes.

I know it's a short chapter. It's just a chapter to catch on, on what has been going on after the war.
