"Alright...are the guards ready?" Kyanna asked with a beady glare. She held the string of her bow in one hand, with a single arrow already drawn.
"Yes. Every man and woman is armed and ready." One of the generals exclaimed with a simple bow.
"Okay, on my signal..." Kyanna said, looking out the large metal door that began opening up to show the light shining from Espore's moons. Small streams of grey smoke littered the dark violet sky. Kyanna readied her aim towards the sky, ready to fire her signal. She began counting down from three inside her head, breathing calmly as she did.
"Fire." She exclaimed quietly to herself and let the arrow fly up into the sky. It suddenly exploded into a huge, thick cloud of silvery dust and right as it did the men and women ready in the fighter jets took off.
"We're coming, (Y/n)." She said and exited the doorway along with a few other soldiers.

I can't just sit here and do nothing! I thought to myself as I watched (Y/n's) beaten form on the large projection. I immediately took action and thrust the handles inside my lion forward and as I did, a cloud of dust began filling the sky from out of nowhere. Then I noticed the jets flying up from behind it, it was being used as a distraction. I smirked and got in line with the other fighter jets, ready to surprise the Galra on the other side of the ship. Suddenly, all the jets did a nosedive in the air.
They're going to surprise them from below...not bad. I thought and flashed a simple smirk. After we had all made it under the ship, the jets all thrust upwards and began shooting a hole into the ship. I'm pretty sure that they were aware that I was behind them and moved out of my way so that I would be able to enter the ship. Once I was back in the all to familiar ship, I immediately got out of my lion and ran desperately through the complex to find (Y/n). I remember, part of where some of the rooms were, thanks to (Y/n's) guidance from a while ago. Now when I think about it, that memory feels like it happened such a long time ago. But I shouldn't allow myself to become distracted now, I needed to find her.

"Guys! Cover me, I'm going up to the ship!" I said through the communicator with the others.
"What?! No! You can't do that!" Keith yelled back at me.
"(Y/n) is in trouble! I've gotta do something!" I said.
"Listen, we're all worried about her right now but-"
"Lance, don't you dare go up there." I suddenly hear Allura's voice interrupt Keith's.
"But she could be in danger!" I pleaded with her.
"Considering what she is, I'm pretty sure she'll be able to handle herself!" I heard the Princess say in a cold, harsh voice. My eyes widened a bit, never have I ever heard her in such a tone. I swallowed a lump that I had no idea built up in my throat. Now, I was conflicted. I didn't know if I should disobey Allura's commands or listen to what my heart was saying.
"I'll go!" I suddenly hear Keith say.
"What?! Keith, I demand you-" Keith had cut her off before Allura had the chance to say everything else that she wanted to say.
"Guys cover me!" He said to the others and I as he began flying off towards the ship (Y/n) was being held in.
I nodded my head slightly, a grim smile on my face,
"Bring her back safe," I say.

"Seems like our little show has caused quite the stir?" The Galran general said with a sly smirk tugging at his lip. I furrowed my brows in disgust at his statement, but I couldn't let myself get distracted, I needed to break from my restraints.
