Hello freaks and greeks, I'm back. This is my NaNoWriMo story, I convinced my teacher to allow me to write this for my in-class assignment so I will be hopefully publishing a lot. Happy reading and happy writing for those writing in November.

Chapter 1

Young

"The Young Will Fight The Wars" I never thought about how true those words really were.

I stood back-to-back to my private Matt. This was it, today was the day, it was the day Zarkon finally paid. For everything, he had down. We were currently on a planet called Erebus, it was our job to cut off planets that held a major key in the empire while the Voltron team took care of the main fleet. It seemed simple enough, right?

Matt fought with his signature staff and I an energy spade. We had eliminated most of the Galra bases scattered across the planet and now we just had to deal with the sentry bots and soldiers that escaped the explosions.

"Marco!" I heard Matt yell, It was one of his weird earth things.

"Polo!" I called back, I might have been weird, but useful in telling if your partner was still there. Matt had moved a few feet away, dealing with his own bots. I sliced the last on in front of me and sent a line to pierce one of his.

"You didn't need to do that, I got it covered." He was right, he had grown in his combat skills since the year and a half that we met.

"Action Hog."

The battle didn't extend much farther after that, only a couple of Varga. After it had all calmed down me and Matt headed towards the town square, that was our squads meeting spot.

"When do we get confirmation?" I knew what he was talking about. The confirmation of the defeat of Zarkon.

"I'm not sure." I lowered my head. I hoped this group of paladins wouldn't fail as the ones of old did. I twinge of sadness welled up inside if I remember all of them, my family.

And everyone else how had suffered at the hands of that Quiznek.

Today was for you.

"Hey, it's ok." Matt placed his hand on my shoulder, he was the only one that I told my past to. I covered my markings using my camo powers.

I raised my head. "I know, today it all ends... Hopefully." He smiled and I returned it. Not hopefully, today it would all end, good or bad, today was the day.

"It's here," he looked at his communicator, mine got destroyed in the battle. His face was solemn, and I was on the brink of tears. No, he had to have been defeated.

Matt smiled and started to laugh. "We won." He had the biggest smile spread across his face. I hugged him in a moment of joy. It was all over today.

The rest of the day was a blur. The locals got word of victory, and everywhere on the planet had turned into a celebration. It was all nice until it arrived.

We all heard the boom of the speed of sound being met. We looked to the sky. I grabbed my spade, Matt his staff. Finally, we saw what had made the boom. I glowing green light quickly making it's way to the surface of the planet. At first, I thought that it was the green lion. But at the speed, the lion could move it would have had to be getting bigger at that point in the atmosphere.

Matt and I stood in ready position along with the other rebel officers. The green glow became blinding, I shielded my eyes with my hand. When I took it down I saw the source of the green light. A little green ring.

I reached out to take it, ignoring Matt telling otherwise. In hindsight, I should have listened.

The moment I touched the strange glowing object, I was instantly encased in a green sphere. I dropped the ring forgotten. I pounded and sliced at the sphere. It began to rise into the atmosphere. A round of pistol fire was loaded onto the outside of it. Before I knew it I was outside of the orbit of the planet, quickly exiting the solar system.

I stopped trying to break the bubble, knowing if I succeeded I would most likely die. I had lost track of time. Gods only knew where I was going or how long it would take me to get there.

I picked up the previously forgotten ring. Examamanging the small object, it was simple, a band with a circular plaque on it. The design on the plaque was one that I had never seen before. I pulled my wrist computer out and scanned the green object.

No Match

The little screen read I looked down in frustration. I didn't feel like being played with today, I didn't put it on in fear of what might happen. I twisted it in my hands for a little while, trying to see what it was made of. It definitely wasn't a metal, more like a crystal, or a durable glass substance. Well, where ever this thing was taking me, I hoped it was friendly.
