Lost Girl (Voltron Fanfic)

Nineteen

-Natasha-

I look at the Purple Lion in front of me, staring off into the sky.

"How are we supposed to form Voltron if Keith is off with the blade?" I ask

"This is only a mission to get information, we shouldn't need to form Voltron." Shiro starts

I look at him before nodding, rubbing my hands together, looking back up at the lion. Shiro stands next to me, setting his hand on my shoulder.

"Are you sure you are ready for this?" He asks

"I have to prove to myself that I am not just one of their spies." I start "I know that I'm not, but I can't shake this feeling that they are somehow using me to get to you."

Shiro looks at me before nodding. He pats my shoulder before turning around, heading towards the black lion.

"Hey, if this is the castle of the lions, then why don't they have a spot for the purple lion?" I ask

"This castle was built before they built the purple is my guess. Ask Coran when you have the next opportunity." Shiro says

I nod before climbing into the cockpit. I watch as the controls start to light up.

"Good to see you too, girl." I smile

"Alright guys, as if you didn't already know. Nat is taking Keith's spot in our formation whenever he isn't here. Allura and Coran have updated the info, therefore Nat can take any area that is needed if we need to form Voltron." Shiro says over the comms

"But let's not need Voltron. Purple can only stay in Voltron for so long before Voltron needs the original back." I say

"That's right. Purple is backup or the spirit." Allura says "She can only do so much before Voltrom reaches its limit."

I look out towards the space in front of me as we fly towards one of the Galra bases.

"Shiro, am I still going in?" I ask

"Yes. I'm sending Lance in with you as back up. You are to get the information then get out of there. Do you two understand?" Shiro says

"Wait, I'm stuck with Mullet's girlfriend?" Lance says

"Hey, she's the one stuck with you," Hunk says

"Boys, let's focus on the objective," I say

"She's the female version of our mullet boy!" Lance says

I laugh before flying behind the Black Lion, watching the stars as we fly past them.

"Are you sure you're ready for this?" Keith asks as he looks down at me

"Yes. We need somebody that knows the ways of the Galra and that understand what they are saying in the commands." I say "We both know that I am the only one that can so far. Pidge is learning yes but I can't risk her. Matt wouldn't be able to forgive me."

"I'm just worried about you pushing your limit," Keith says

"Keith, I love you and I'm glad that you are looking out for me. But I need to do this. You're going to be gone with the Blade, Shiro and them... they aren't enough force by themselves." I start "They need at least five lions if the need for Voltron arrives. Purple can take Red's spot if needed."

He looks at me with a smile on his face. He looks at the clock on the wall before situating to where he is lying flat on his back, his arms staying wrapped around me.
