A history lesson

'Alien' words:

"It's good to have you back."

"It's good to be back." I watch the exchange between the two. They appeared to have a father/son relationship...or at least what one should be. I would say a sibling relationship, but Lotor and I spent most of our time fighting. Whether if it was each other or other Galra varied often. Then again, maybe that isn't normal in human culture.

"What happened? Where were you?" Keith questions and Shiro simply shakes his head.

"I wish I could tell you. My head's still pretty scrambled. I was on an alien ship, but somehow I escaped. It's all a blur. How did you know to come save me when I crashed?" Shiro replies, causing me to frown.

" You must of hit your head way harder than I thought. I could help restore your memories, but it will take some time. At least 14 quintants...er days. And that is only if you truly want them back."I decide to speak up.

"Let me think about it. It's a lot to take in." Shiro replies before turning back to Keith.

"You two should come see this." Keith says, walking back inside.

"What've you been working on?"

"I can't explain it, really. After getting booted from the Garrison, I was kind of lost and found myself drawn out to this place. It's like something... some energy, was telling me to search." Excitement flows through my veins as I smile .

"You've found it. You've found the Blue lion. Though... I thought you would be a better fit for the red lion. Oh well." I exclaimed.

"Wait...is the blue lion Voltron?" Pidge asks and I raise my eyebrows.

"Don't be silly. The blue lion is only part of Voltron. Though I am surprised word of Voltron has travelled this far. It is over 10,000 years old after all." I explain.

"What...10,000 years old! That's ancient." My eyes narrow into a glare directed at Lance.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"N-nothing." Hmm...that's what I thought.

"I suppose you want me to explain."I sigh.

"Yeah...that would be helpful." Shiro decides.

"Alright, I'll explain. However, I can't remember most of the war so some parts might be inaccurate." 

"What do you mean?" Hunk asks as a blush covers my face. 

"Oh...so that's why you reacted weird when Lance called 10,000 years ancient." Pidge 

"Hahaha sorry. I forgot you're not human with that british accent you've got going." 

"What is ...British?" I ask after a moment, tilting my head to the side in confusion.

"Nevermind..."

"Ok. On with my story. 10,000 years ago there was a war between the king of the Alteans, King Alfor, and the Emperor of the Galra, Emperor Zarkon. Rumor has it that the war was started because King Alfor cheated at a game of  Schlacht iz Aldirnar, which is a game that is a mixture of a live action of A World of Warcraft and Monopoly. " 

"Really?" Lance asked and I laugh in response before giving him a deadpan look.

"No. That was just a rumor my brother and I spread. I remember Father was so angry!If it wasn't for Haggar, we surely would've been banished. However, that game does usually end in at least one death. Hence children not being allowed to participate. Voltron is a robot composed of six lions: Blue, Red, Yellow, Green, White, and Black. Zarkon was the Paladin of the black lion at the time before the war. At the time, Zarkon's wife, Honerva *Gulps* my...mother had fallen ill. He begged King Alfor to assist him in using quintessence to heal her. King Alfor refused, declaring Zarkon mad. In the end, King Alfor was right. Using quintessence was mad, the Altean body can't handle that much power. Mother died despite Zarkon's attempts. In an attempt to stop the further abuse of quintessence, King Alfor destroyed the planet of the Galra. With the shock of her loss, the loss of his planet, and with the corruption of quintessence, he declared war on Altea. In the end, Zarkon killed King Alfor and whipped out the rest of Altea. Mother was gone...And wiping out her people wasn't going to bring her back." My purple slit like eyes were focused on my white knuckles.

"You referred to Honevra as your Mother...was Zarkon your Father?" Shiro asked, and my head whipped upwards.

"My Father died the second Zarkon stepped into the quintessence field."
