Unexpected Surprises

Summary: It was Luka’s birthday and Keith was thinking of taking her to Zelza for the first time since Mages have been declared as partners with Altea in diplomatic meetings and politics. He thought it would be great for his new girlfriend to meet his younger sister, Kaela.

A/N: This is for a dear friend, @spacelion-loveshermulletson, Happy Birthday! Sorry for this late birthday gift. I had worked on this! I hope you do like it! 

Luka opened her eyes and stretched as she smelt some roses on her bedside table. She smiled affectionately as she read the letter. She knew it was from her wonderful and handsome boyfriend, Keith. They had the day planned all for her birthday and Keith had announced that she’ll be meeting Keith’s younger sister.

She has always wondered what she was like. She could imagine that the two siblings were similar. Luka knew they had one of the most strongest relationship with their mother and each other. She got up from her bed and got started with her day inside the Castle of Lions.

She wore a red and orange dress with her hair tied up in a low braid. She saw her uncle was already up in the kitchen and was hiding something behind his back. “Uncle Coran, what is that behind your back?” Luka asked.

“Oh, a little gift for my niece.” Coran replied with a loving smile. He gave her the present he had got for her. Luka smiled brightly and sat on the chair to open it properly. She got the wrap out and saw a little box. She raised an eyebrow in confusion and opened it, seeing it was a red flower clip for her.

“Oh, Uncle Coran! It’s just like my mother’s.” Luka gasped with tears forming. She hugged him tightly. “Thank you!”

“No worries, my little one. Now, I know you have a busy day with Keith. Remember, have fun but not too much fun.” Coran said.

“Don’t worry. Keith won’t hurt me. I’ll also be meeting his sister today. I’ll be going to Zelza for my birthday.” Luka said with a smile.

Keith was watching his sister in a match with her friend, Ares, going against the Southern Fire and Water Mages. She was struggling to get past the line, but the other Water Mage was beating her and got her nearly to the end of her platform. She growled until she created a wave of water with her feet, knocking the Southern Water Mage falling down and fell into the water below.

She looked to the side seeing Ares was not winning. Ares was using his fire powers as he punched down on the ground and used lava as his advantage to created fisted rocks and punched the Southern Fire Mage, sent him flying up in the air and fell down into the water.

“Northern Fire and Water Mages wins!” Ares and Kaela cheered in victory as the crowd roared with Krolia and Keith cheering for Kaela.

After the match, Kaela changed into her Water Mage dress with her hair down with a crown and hair accessories with beads and feathers. She smiled when Keith came and hugged her tightly. “So proud.”

“Yes, it was a tense battle but good work.” Krolia smiled proudly.

“It wasn’t a battle. It is a game that the council had made to entertain the other non-Mages.” Kaela explained as she waved at the other mages. They all walked out of the arena and Kaela noticed that Keith looked nervous. “Oh, come on, Keith. I won’t even bite her. I am friendly.” Kaela punched him on the arm as he glared at her.

“Well, it’s just that I don’t know if you’ll like her.” Keith said as he rubbed his arm. “You have some kind of scary aura around you every time you meet someone.” Kaela pouted and shoved him aside with a smile.  

“Oh, Keith, I met her, and I liked her. She is just like Allura but uh, petite.” Krolia grinned as she got a call from Kolivan. “Oh, I’ll be right back.”

Kaela raised an eyebrow at their mother. “Think, she is actually is going with Kolivan.”

“Bet ten GAC she is not.” Keith deadpanned. He wasn’t ready to see his mother be with someone just yet. And Kaela on the other hand seemed okay with that.

“I bet 20 GAC, she is. Game?” Kaela grinned.

“Game on.” Keith declared as they shook hands on it. He also noticed a wedding band on her left hand. He smiled knowing that his younger sister is happily married with James. But he was a bit mad that they didn’t get to have a proper wedding since they got married in secret before her exile.

“I will be with James for a few hours. Enjoy your date with Luka. Oh, and uh, Ares will accompany you in the Fire tribe cuisine. It is to die for.” Kaela winked at her brother and giggled.

“When does my sister actually giggle?” Keith asked himself.

(~)

Kaela went to her cottage and saw James was working on something. “Hey, I saw the match. Congratulations.” James greeted her with a proud smile as they kissed for a few seconds.

“Thank you. And uh, what’s with all of this?” Kaela asked, looking at all of the papers.

“Hey, you know we had talked about adopting. I found couple of kids that we might actually adopt.” James said as he shown her the picture of the baby girl and a boy. She saw they were Galran and Altean. And the other one was a human.

“Uh, babe—”

“I know it is tricky to choose, all these kids are homeless and parentless.” James said as he kissed her on the lips. “And we are working every day and talked about having kids since we got married.”

“We got married in secret.” Kaela pointed out as James nodded as he remembering that they got married in secret before her exile. “And we never got a real wedding.” Kaela patted his cheeks and kissed him passionately.

“So, you want something to eat?” Kaela asked.

Keith was in his Lion with Luka exploring the stars, the Moon Gate of Planet Zelza. She gasped excitedly, seeing the spirits glowing beautifully. As they landed, Luka immediately ran down and got out of the Black Lion. They had landed on the platform of the Capitol Castle. She gasped happily seeing the clouds above the village, seeing new buildings and houses were made.

“Oh this is so lovely, Keith. This is amazing! Where should we go first?” Luka asked excitedly.

Keith chuckled in amusement and wrapped his arm around her. “I was thinking we could go to the Earth Tribe. You are working on making those necklaces you were making for Merla and Romelle.”

“Oh, that is such an absolutely great idea. Maybe we could make a necklace for your sister.” Luka suggested.

“That is a great idea. But I think she has way too much. Since her friend is an Earth Mage. And she give her plenty of stones and crystals.” Keith said. “I think it’s best if she doesn’t get that much jewellery.”

Luka raised an eyebrow. “Keith, I don’t want to leave empty handed. I don’t want to give a bad impression to your sister.”

Keith smiled softly and then held her hands. “Alright, we can make her another bracelet or necklace.”

“I was thinking of something simple yet elegant. Does she ever worn a choker? Like the one um, that uh, Rizavi has?” Luka asked curiously.

“No, she’s…. does not have one of those.” Keith replied hesitantly, thinking back how Kaela never wanted jewellery until he had given her the golden bracelet from the Space Mall, after her capture from the Galra Empire.

The two went to the Earth Tribe with Luka looking through the red and blue stones while Keith was looking at the crystals. Keith never knew they had different kinds of crystals and stones. He found one that could go with Kaela’s dress and Luka found one that matches her markings. He looked at himself in the mirror seeing the markings that Kaela had given him.

“Say, love, does Kaela love shawls?” Luka asked as they paid for the crystal and stones.

“She has lots of them now. She makes them. The one I had given you? The orange with green leaves on it? She made that for you a month ago.” Keith smiled.

Luka smiled brightly. “Oh, wow. She is truly talented as you said. She might be a fashion designer. Or a pilot.”

“She’s actually fashion designer here in Zelza.” Keith smiled proudly as he chuckled looking at Luka’s shocked reaction as she held the bag in her hands.

Kaela was at the Water Tribe market with her friend Ares, who was munching on the fish balls. “Hmm, this is really good. You think you could like, you know, have it in a little mini fish bowl and eat with sauce on the side?” Ares suggested.

Kaela chuckled and turned to Ash who was smiling lovingly at her boyfriend. “I think you could do that.” Ash said as she got a piece of a fish ball from him.

“I think I will leave that to the professional fish catchers. And the reason why I asked for you guys to be here is that I need to ask you guys, mainly Ash, since your bump is showing, and your cravings are getting crazier by the second that Ares gets more food.” Kaela said as she looked over at Ash’s bump.

Ares and Ash got married and united the Fire and Sun Mages. They are trying to combine their people in the Capitol and working their way to find themselves a bigger Castle to build in the Fire Tribe. Ash will be moving to the Fire Tribe as Ares’s wife and Queen of the Sun and Fire Mage Tribe.

“Well, pregnancy may be a difficult thing, but it does drain your mana because the baby needs it. And it is actually the best feeling. We both knew that Misty told you that Most female mages die from labour and it is a huge risk to get pregnant while most new mothers… die during labour.” Ash said as she rubbed her bump.

“But aren’t you scared that is going to, well, happen to you?” Kaela asked.

“Yora. Things like this will happen eventually and as Ash said, it is worth it. We are afraid it might happen but we all must have faith.” Ares assured her while calling her by her new Zelzan name.

“So, what? Are you pregnant?” Ash asked softly.

“No, no. I’m not.” Kaela replied timidly. Ares and Ash were good friends to James and Kaela. They both were aware that they were talking about having a child. They have been married for two years now. And now they are expecting very, very, fast. She only found out that Mage pregnancy is really a fast process.  

“Have you told your brother about this?” Ares asked.

“Yes, I did. A month ago. He thinks I should take it slow and see what will happens.” Ares suggested. “Unless you are not suggesting to get knocked sooner.” Ash groaned and punched him on his arm.

“Oh, leave her alone.” Ash chuckled and turned to the Water Mage. “Yora, it’s alright. This. This is called a miracle. And it is beautiful. I’m sure you and James will talk about it. Like a serious talk about it.”

Kaela nodded in understanding, until she was called for a meeting underwater from another water mage. “I got to go to this meeting. Oh, Ares, take my brother and his girlfriend to that restaurant where they have that porridge.” Kaela ran towards the water and dived in the water.

“You think she’ll be okay?” Ares asked as they finished the fish balls.

“I’m sure. But we’re her friends. We should at least support her decision. Now, I’m hungry again. I want some more of that fish balls.” Ash said as she rubbed her bump.

Ares groaned in defeat, looking at his wife and then his eyes glanced at her bump. “You better not make your mother mad.” Ash chuckled and then nudged his arm playfully.

(~)

Kaela was swimming underwater with another mage beside her telling her that some of the Mages were struggling in building new houses with new technology. She was trying to think of another way and could ask Coran for advice or… Slav? No, no, no, she’ll ask Coran.

“I’ll contact an old friend of mine for some advices.”

The other mage smiled politely as she swam away with Kaela looking around the place underwater. She then went to the Castle underwater as she entered the throne room. Her royal advisor, Izumi, came and asked. “Princess, cream or midnight blue? For the banquet?”

“Cream has always been chosen for the banquet in the Capitol, try blue.” Kaela smiled.

“Yes, your majesty.” Izumi bowed down.

“Please, call me Kaela or Yora.” Kaela smiled as she swam towards to the table in the middle seeing the screens, filled with plans for the banquet for some of the Water Mages are coming to the surface. “Have you checked with King Apollo about the food and drinks?”

“No, not yet. He said he was busy.” Izumi replied as she got her tablet out and let her see the messages.

Kaela sighed in annoyance. She now knows why he was busy. He is with Misty in the Earth Kingdom. Busy doing “stuff”. Those two have always been so attached to each other. “I’ll go over at the Earth Kingdom to get him to get his butt out of the bed.”

“They have been getting along very well after the war.” Izumi noted with a smirk as Kaela nodded with a grin. “I’ll going with the “unexpected surprise”.

(~)

Keith and Luka had been to the Earth Kingdom, the Moon Tribe, the Air Tribe and the Sun tribe. Now are heading to the Fire Tribe. They saw fire dancers and they were given some fire crackers and fire necklaces as a greeting.

Luka was smiling brightly and then saw the porridge that Keith was telling her about. “Hey. Keith! You made it!” Ares exclaimed happily as he hugged his friend. “Glad you could make it.”

“Thanks. Ares, this is Luka, Luka, this is Ares. Kaela’s friend.” Keith introduced the Fire Prince as she bowed down.

“No need to bow down. I am a normal Mage here. This is my family’s restaurant. Please, have a seat. And, please, enjoy.” Ares smiled politely as he heard his wife was shouting out some food she has been craving.

“Is she alright?” Luka asked, seeing Ash was nearly going to trash inside the restaurant. She could see she was nearly throwing a knife at every chef inside.

“I should get in there.” Ash said as he gave them each a menu at their table and Keith was having a flashback when Kaela was flipping out on Lance who had glued all of her books in her cottage. Kaela had given him a massive bump on his head.

“This takes me back to seeing Kaela and Lance arguing.” Keith smiled.

“Oh? Those two do really get along very well. While I do love James and Kaela together, I actually thought Lance and Kaela would be together.” Luka said as she looked over the menu.

Keith chuckled. “Well, those two nearly got together from I have heard.”

“What? Really?” Luka asked in shock as she put down the menu and had her full attention to her boyfriend.

“Yes, really. Lance actually asked Kaela out before we went to fight against Honerva. I was shocked when he asked for permission to ask her out when I was actually going with Allura.” Keith said as he fondly said Allura’s name with longingly everlasting love. Luka knew he loved Allura so much with all of his heart.

“And what of James? How did he eventually won her heart?” Luka asked curiously as they ordered the famous soup that Ares was making for them as he placed the bowls on their table with Keith seeing Ares had a bruises on his face.

“Uh, did Ash did that?” Keith asked, pointing at his bruises.

“Yup, perks in having a Sun Mage as your wife.” Ares muttered as he took the tray in his arm. “And she is gonna have me to sleep on the couch tonight, why? I called her a fat woman.”

Luka tried her best not to laugh while Keith was feeling sorry for the mage. He is the second King of the Fire and Sun and is running a restaurant in the Capitol. He has a lot in his hands while Apollo is doing his duties to combine the Earth and Fire Mages. “Hmm, imagine Kaela being pregnant.” Keith said with a chuckle.

“Yeah, make her mad and we’ll see who wins.” Ares said as he went back to work.

“Well, now we know how a pregnant Mage is during in her mood swings.” Luka noted.

“And as we were, while Lance and Kaela had dated briefly, Lance noticed that James had feelings for her. Well, he did take it very well. He knew that their relationship was really not what he thought it would be like. He began to notice Pidge and they both had confessed that they liked each other. While James and Kaela had their romance happened.” Keith explained.

Luka smiled brightly. “Aww, how sweet! James and Kaela do go well together, and I have heard from Lance, that he called them, ‘Commander Phoenix’.”

“Really? That’s Lance for you.” Keith chuckled.

“Well, I did heard that they got married in secret, is that correct?” Luka asked as she ate the soup and her eyes sparkled as she kept on eating the nice fresh porridge.

“Yes, which I am still mad that they don’t get to have a real wedding with her family and friends. Their only witness was Mage Princess Serene.” Keith said as he ate the porridge.

“Oh, she would look lovely in a wedding dress. Maybe a nice blue and purple dress with a nice veil and a train. Ooh, she’ll look fantastic with a red, purple and blue wedding dress also. Or that is too much.” Luka hummed.

“Heh, Lu. If she decides to have a real wedding. You two may plan for it the whole day.” Keith said with a loving smile, watching her enjoying her porridge on their date. “I think you and my sister will get along just fine.”

Kaela was in her cottage with James making adjustments with his rifle while looking at the photos and files of the orphaned children. He was keen on finding some children they could adopt. Human, Galra or Altean. It doesn’t matter to him. He was willing to adopt any child they could find.

She bit her lips while she placed her papers on her desk. She was about to go towards him until she suddenly felt nausea. She ran outside to the front and threw up in the bins. James immediately went outside to get her hair out of the way. “I’ll…I’ll throw that away later. I’ll get you some water with some Zelzan sugar for you, babe.” James said as he rubbed her back.

After Kaela threw up, she felt an immediate change in her mana. It felt like it is changing strangely. Like it is transferring somewhere….in her stomach. She was in the bathroom rubbing her face and mouth, getting rid of the vomit from her mouth as she looked at her reflection and saw that her face looked a bit pale.

James knocked on the door to the bathroom with a worried expression. “Babe? Are you alright? Should I call someone?”

“No, no, I’m fine. Maybe just a bug.” Kaela replied quickly as she looked at her reflections again then stepped out. “I’m fine, Jim. Don’t worry.”

“You sure?” James asked as he put his hands on his waist.

“I’m sure.” Kaela replied with a smile and kissed him on the cheek. “I need to go and check if the banquet is all set. You are coming right?”

“Nope. I have to go for a meeting at the Garrison. Sorry.” James apologised.

“Okay.” Kaela smiled as she give him his helmet to him. And got his pack for lunch and gave it to James as he stepped out. “Here you go. Your lunch and I added fire ball berries. They are tasty.”

“Thanks. And uh, make sure you take it easy. I don’t want you to push yourself too hard on your work as a Mage Princess of the Water Tribe.” James said as he hopped in his fighter.

“I promise. Besides, Keith and Luka will be in the water tribe soon as the banquet starts.” Kaela smiled lovingly at him.

“Alright, tell Keith that we’ll be having a game night on Earth.” James said as he leaned down to kiss her on the lips. “Then we can talk about having a child or children.”

Kaela just smiled as he took off from the ground and then she made a portal that takes him back to Earth. She wondered if she could be a good mother like her own mother. She said that she’ll become a natural if she just follow her instincts.

She went inside her cottage and saw her Ikri was eating the leftover porridge that James was eating. “Neze, no, you can have it in your large bowl later.” Kaela laughed as her friend from the water tribe knock down the door and shouted out something excitedly.

“LET’S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!”

“Eris, the party isn’t happening until tonight. And you are a few hours early.” Kaela chuckled in amusement. Her new friend is a new Water Mage member and is a dancer in the tribe. She saw how talented Kaela was in healing and had asked her to be her mentor to past the exams.

“Oh, uh, right. And where is your husband? Is he supposed to be with you?” Eris asked.

“He is going for a meeting today. And I’ll be meeting up with my brother and his girlfriend now. So I have to get going. Could you tell Misty that I had left her some other work to do?” Kaela asked.

“Yes, sure. And Gaius wanted to let you know that the new meeting for the new warriors is cancelled due to the banquet.” Eris confirmed to her.

“Of course, I’ll check in later then I’ll organize with the dance at the party.” Kaela said as she got flew up in the sky to the village near the lake in the forest. She saw some lights dangling around the field with the tables all set and cleaned.

Somewhere in the Water Tribe entrance, Luka was excitedly watching a performance with the dancers giving Luka blue flowers. Keith was amazed by the work Kaela had done for her party and banquet. She was becoming a talented designer. Keith looked to the side, seeing Luka was looking at the blue crystal dresses with red accents. “This is definitely your sister’s dress.” Luka stated with a smile.

“Hmm, I think white and purple suits her.” Keith said as he put an arm around her.

“Oh, come on, this is definitely her colours. So, where do we meet her? I am really excited!” Luka giggled.

“I don’t know, I’ve sent her a message, but she said she’ll be running late. She said something about vomiting, screaming and shouting.” Keith said in confusion.

(~)

Ash was screaming at the top of her lungs and Ares was trying to get his poor, red, unfortunate damaged hand to get out of Ash’s hand. She had held a great grip on his. She was having contractions until her water broke. Ash pulled Ares by the collar of his shirt. “This is all of your fault! You put this baby in me!”

Ares gulped in fear and turned to Misty, Suki and Kaela. “Hey, don’t look at us. She’s your wife. You vowed to take care of her until death do you part.” Misty said as Suki pinched her.

“What Misty is trying to say is that you stay by her side. I’ll get Izumi and the rest of the crew. I have to message my brother.” Kaela said as she got out of the room and messaged her brother and then got a call from James. She gasped in surprise thinking she should replied not until she heard screaming and overlapping shouting.

Ash shouted out some words in Zelzan and threw some cups at Ares who was getting out of the room and held onto Kaela for his dear life. “Ugh, Ares, you are the Fire Prince of the Fire Tribe! Get a grip, man!” Kaela shouted.

(~)

“Looks like she needs to take this emergency.” Keith said as he looked at his communicator.

“Oh, that is alright. She is busy as you said. I think it gives us more opportunities to see what is in the Water Tribe.” Luka smiled.

“That’s a good idea. How about some ice cream. They do have some here.” Keith said with a smile. Luka perked up, hearing him say ‘ice cream’, she immediately grabbed Keith’s arm and pulled him with her into the busy crowds.

They all had seen everyone was dancing and singing in a circle around the fountain with the Mages making the water move with their movement. Smooth as a river and cool as ice. The children were giggling and laughing when they saw Mage dancers clothed in their traditional water tribe dresses and clothes.

As one of the Water Mages recognised Keith as their Princess’s brother. he immediately went up to him and gave him a little bag. Much to the couple’s confusion, they both looked inside the blue bag and saw a blanket in it with candles.

“What are these for?” Luka asked.

Keith reached down in the bag and saw the letter. “Meet me up in the mountains where Serene’s old temple is.”

“Looks like my sister has chosen a venue for us.” Keith smiled.

(~)

30 minutes had passed, and Kaela was late to meet Keith and Luka. And oh how the spirits were able to help, Ash was still giving birth to her baby and her mana was running out. Since Ash has no other family relative, Kaela, Suki and Misty all gave all of their mana to help her heal up fast and quickly. In order for her to survive the birthing process.

Ares was having fears about Ash dying during childbirth. Apollo and Ares were outside of the birthing room. The young Fire Mage Prince was pacing back and forth in the hallways while seeing more nurses coming in and out of the room, making him feel more worried. He feels like he is going to throw up more than ever.

His nervous has taken over and then gagged. He covered his mouth, so vomit won’t come out. He frantically looked for a rubbish bin but could not find one. “Ares, come on, lad! Get the hold of yourself!” Apollo encouraged him.

“What if I really turn out to be a very bad father?! What if I break the baby’s neck?! What will happen to Ash? IS she gonna die?!” Ares shouted as he grabbed him by the collar of his clothes.

“I assure you brother everything will be fine. Ash will be fine!” Apollo assured him as tried to calm his younger brother. He was breathing quickly and heavily and then heard Ash screaming loudly, experiencing another immense pain.

Misty was peeking and saw the baby’s head. “Wow, I can see the head. Ash, you are a fighter, I give you that!” Misty encouraged her.

“Oh, Mist, you and Apollo don’t have to do it!” Ash whined as she pushed again while holding Kaela’s hand who was kept calm and went through this smoothly with Suki. Misty looked over at Suki who shrugged, wondering why she had said that.

“Oh well, Suki, Kaela and I might ended being mothers.” Misty pointed out. “It will be fun!”

“But not giving birth!” Ash screamed.

“And Magnus said that most of Mages can’t get pregnant, because, infertile.” Kaela added as Suki and Misty both nodded, thinking that could be the case.

“Aren’t you going to meet your brother?” Suki asked Kaela.

“They can wait. They sent me a message.” Kaela replied as she rubbed Ash’s hand.

“You can do it!” The girls encouraged their friend to get through the child birth. With one final push, she screamed out loud and then the silence came with steady beeping from the machines until they heard a baby crying.

Ash laid her head down with relief and tiredness. But still managed to smile and to hold her baby in her arms at long last. She took a good look at her baby boy in her arms. Wrapped in a blue towel to keep him warm in his mother’s embrace.

Ares came inside the room to see his son in his wife’s arms. Both of them cried in tears of joy. They were both blessed with a healthy baby boy. Apollo was beaming with happiness and pride with Gaius arriving with a smile and stood close by Suki.

“Apollo, are you crying?” Misty asked.

Apollo sniffed and tried to act more composed and professional as a King. “No. I’m not. It’s just magic dust here.”

“Sure thing big softy.” Misty teased him.

“Such an amazing sight.” Gaius commented with a soft smile, holding Suki’s hand in his. All of them were watching the heartfelt moment.

“Indeed. I wonder what our family will be like.” Suki smiled.

Gaius smiled at his wife and wrapped an arm around her. “We shall see. And I think Kaela needs to be somewhere else.” They both turned to see Kaela was looking through the machines until Ares noticed.

“Y’Oriana, aren’t you going to meet your brother?” Ares asked.

“Yes, I am! And Izumi will take care of everything from here.” Kaela smiled as she got out of the room to get ready to meet up with her brother and his girlfriend.

(~)

Luka was looking at the grave inside the cave. She now knows the ancient history of the Mages from her boyfriend and knew that Kaela had gone through so much as Mage Princess Serene did. She cannot wait to meet officially meet her.

Keith was just outside seeing all of the tribes home from the temple. It was an indescribable sight to see. He now knew that his sister belongs here. He heard a phoenix squawking in the distance. He smiled and called out to his girlfriend. “Luka, she’s coming!”

Luka ran out of the cave and saw a white and purple phoenix and then it went into its original form, seeing Kaela for the first time as she landed. She had her long hair down with braids and feathers on. She was wearing a purple and blue dress with as she could see her markings and tattoos all over her arms.

“You are late.” Keith grinned as he hugged and twirled her around.

“Hey, at least I arrived in the most fantastic and graceful way.” Kaela chuckled.

Keith rolled his eyes playfully and turned to Luka. “Kaela, I want you to meet, Luka. Luka, this is my sister, Kaela.”

“It is such an honour to meet you, your majesty.” Luka bowed down respectfully.

“Please, rise.” Kaela smiled as she stood up. “It is such a pleasure to finally meet you. I have heard so much about you from my brother. He cannot stop talking about you.”

Luka blushed a little and then the two girls went to the picnic underneath the Soul’s tree. Keith was telling Luka that Kaela had united all of the species in all of the Galaxy to stop Adelram’s attack here in Zelza with all of the strength she’s got.

“Yes, it was the hardest thing to do. To gain the Coalition’s attention. As you heard, after my exile, I was having a strained relationship with your boyfriend here. And I was a bit stuck and I lived here for a few years now.” Kaela said as she ate the muffin.

“But you are a legend in the universe! You have our deeply humble respects. My uncle Coran told me stories about Serene.” Luka said as she drank some water while Kaela spitted her drink in Keith’s face.

She coughed and wiped her mouth with a cloth. “Your uncle is Coran?!”

“Yes, he is. Didn’t Keith tell you?” Luka looked over at her boyfriend.

“As he failed to do so. Oh, and uh, you completely deserved that.” Kaela smirked seeing Keith was completely drenched.

Keith gave her a glare and stood up. “My lady and my-not-so-lady, I’ll be right back.” He began walking away to get cleaned up with Kaela throwing a paper towel at him but missed.

“So, I see you have mended your relationship.” Luka smiled.

“Yes, we did. But we sometimes fight. During our mission to stop Honerva, Keith, turned out, didn’t fully trusted my abilities until some time after that.” Kaela said.

“I see. After your death and Allura’s, it was hard. He loves her deeply. I know I cannot replace her. She was his first love.” Luka said as she looked at her reflection in her drink.

“I had that feeling before. I loved someone else before I met James and Lance. Koryak, was his name. He was the only one who never judged me.” Kaela smiled. “Then Lance came in, he was very sweet. But our relationship was short lived. It was nice but my feelings for James, they were really real.”

“You love him so much. As I love your brother.” Luka smiled as they both watched the spirits above them. “Oh! Are you a spirit? Or a shapeshifter? Because you were a phoenix when arrived.”

“Hmm, you could say that. Don’t tell Keith, alright. It’s a secret for the both of us.” Kaela winked.

Once Keith came back, he saw Kaela was showing her powers to Luka. He smiled seeing Kaela and Luka were getting along. Keith felt the wind was blowing gently with Luka running up to him and hugged him tightly. Kaela punched him on the air gently and whistled getting her white Ikri’s attention and she flew behind Kaela as Luka gasped in wonder. She pet the Ikri with Keith and Kaela watching with smiles.

“It has been an honour to meet you, Kaela. It is such a wonderful planet to come for a holiday.” Luka smiled.

“Oh, yes, everyone in the galaxy go here for a holiday. Lance and Pidge went here for their honeymoon after going to Olkari.” Kaela smiled. “And your more than welcome to come by and visit. I hoped you enjoyed the festival tonight. And the banquet as well.”

“Oh, it was delightful! I loved it.” Luka smiled with Keith wrapping an arm around her waist.

“Babe, is it alright if I talk to my sister about something? You can wait inside.” Keith smiled. Luka smiled back and kissed him on the cheek before going inside the Black Lion.

“What is it? You okay, Yorak?” Kaela asked.

“I felt something different about your aura. It has changed. I can feel it.” Keith said as Kaela stiffened, remembering that Keith can actually sense the change in her aura. She has been teaching him how to control his mana when he is experiencing extreme emotions.

“Are you okay, Ella?” Keith asked worriedly.

“I vomited this morning before you guys came. I have been feeling a bit nausea.” Kaela said. “But I did visited my mentor, Magnus. He has seen the results. I thought it was impossible.” Her hand went to her stomach which Keith got the gist.

“No…” Keith breathed out in disbelief.

(~)

Kaela returned to her cottage and was standing of a doorway where James has been working in. She saw what he has been working on. A small crib. For a baby. She was having an urge to start a family of her own since she married James.

She heard footsteps and sensed it was James. “Hey, babe, that was supposed to be a surprise.” James smiled as he kissed her hair.

“Mm, I know. You are a bad at keeping things as a surprises.” Kaela teased as they kissed each other softly, then pulled away. “I have something to tell you.”

“Go for it.” James said as he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead.

Kaela doesn’t know how or when she should say it. It has been eating her alive all day. She had told her brother and thought it was impossible as well. She sighed, took a long deep breath in and out. She looked in his eyes as he stared in hers. “I’m pregnant.”

James blinked once. Twice. Three times. He froze in place as he looked at his wife. She was worried for his reaction. He looked at her face and she did looked pale this morning before he had left for Earth. She did threw up this morning. They both thought it was impossible for her to be pregnant. She had lost the ability to bear children. “A-A-Are you sure?” James stammered.

Kaela just nodded quickly in response. They were both shocked as the silence was even more awkward for them to speak. Not until James hugged her tightly. “Ella, I know the risks. But we can do this together. I promise you this. We can work this out. Together.” James caressed her cheeks and kissed her on the forehead where the diamond was.

Kaela smiled gratefully and looked in his eyes deeply. “Thank you.”

(~)

“She’s what?!” Luka shouted. “NO! But what she had explained to me. No, she can’t die during that process. Oh no, what about the baby?” Keith had explained what had happened on the way back to Altea.

“Don’t worry. My sister’s a fighter. She can do this.” Keith assured her. “Besides, we are here to support her no matter what.” Luka nodded and hugged him tightly, worried about Kaela’s surprising situation. She, too, hoped, to start a family of her own. Maybe. Someday.

Nightmare Part 1

A/N: Here is another one-shot. This will be in two parts and hope you all like it! Enjoy reading! 

@spacelion-loveshermulletson @whatusernamex3000 

Keith was laying down on the bed, shaking and mumbling words under his breath. He was shaking in fear and trembles, hearing the sweet, soothing angelic voice in his dreams. Keith, I can’t thank you enough for all you’ve given me.

Allura, when you accept me, it helped me to accept myself. Thank you.

There is greatness in your heart and in your actions.

Keith then woke up from his dream, panting in cold sweat and run through his hair with his hands. He calmed down when he felt a gentle, soft hand on his back, seeing Luka looking at him worried. “Keith, it’s ok. I am here. I’m here.” Luka said as Keith wrapped his arms around her and laid his head on her chest.

“I saw her again. I saw Allura again.” Keith said, shakily as Luka shushed him gently and softly. She kissed him on the head and, whispering to him words of comfort.

“Shh, it’s ok. It’s ok.” Luka whispered as they both went to sleep. Throughout the night, Keith didn’t have any other bad dreams or nightmares. In the morning, Keith tries to forget about his dream by distracting him by doing some training, working with the Blades day and night. Luka has been trying to get him to rest, but nothing was working.

Keith was working non-stop at the Blade headquarters and his mom had tried to get him to rest up but still refused. There was nothing they could do. Keith then returned to Altea, visiting Luka who was helping the children learning the history and legacy of Voltron. Luka saw him standing underneath the tree. She walked towards him, “Keith, are you okay? Are you alright?” Luka caressed his cheeks, seeing the black bags underneath his eyes.

Keith looked down, “Sorry, I kept on having those nightmares. Again. Every day I come here and she’s here. Everywhere. I could also see her here, in Altea. I tried to sleep but, in every dream, I dreamt about, I always see her.” Keith was in a merge of breaking down.

“Keith, it is okay to grieve. I know your friends are, too. You can grieve all you want. Then you can rest easily.” Luka says gently as she kissed him. “I’ll see you soon.” Luka left Keith under the tree and he looked at the statue of Allura.

He then walked towards the statue and slowing walking up the stairs. He walked in front of the memorial; he smiled a bit. “H-Hey, Allura. Um, I know that it has been a long time since I last sent my regards to you.” Keith started as he rubbed his eyes tiredly.

“I miss you. I missed every bit of you. Every day. I kept on seeing you in my dreams. I love you. And I always will.” Keith says looking up at the statue. “And, um, I hope it is alright, I have found love again. She’s also an amazing, kind, caring and wonderful person I ever met, besides you. We, uh, are getting married soon. That would’ve been us, but that never happened.” Keith felt tears rolling down his eyes and felt arms wrapping around his waist, looking back and saw Luka was behind him.

“Did you hear all of that?” Keith whispered.

“Yes. And it was beautiful. Beautiful for Princess Allura to hear from you. I am sure she is happy that you have found love and someone to share your life with.” Luka said. She rubbed his arms and kissed the back of his shoulder. Giving him all of the comfort, he needed.

Keith held her hands in his as he smiled. “Thanks, Luka.” He then turned to Luka as he leaned down and kissed her passionately on the lips as Luka wrapped her arms around his neck and his arms wrapped around her.

“Come on. Supper’s ready. Also clean yourself up, please.” Luka giggled as they both left the memorial. Unbeknownst to them, pink quintessence appeared and Allura in spirit form appeared in her blue and pink dress with her hair flowing in the wind. She stood, watching Keith and Luka walking to the stairs. She watched them with a happy smile.

Keith felt a similar presence from behind him and then saw Allura standing in front of the statue, looking at him proudly. She then blew a kiss to him and then disappeared. Keith smiled as tears rolled down his cheeks then turned away, hearing Luka calling out to him.

During dinner, Keith was greeted into a big hug from Hunk and then Lance came joining in. Pidge greeted him with a light punch on the arm and then greeted Luka with a hug. Shiro and Curtis came in moments after Coran had announced that dinner was ready. Keith was slowing healing and was feeling better now that he has Luka and his friends with him.

Later that night, Keith was laying down on the bed reading his reports for the Blades as Luka sat on the edge of the bed, brushing her long, straight orange hair. “Feeling better now, love?” Luka asked as she put the brush away and then crawled on the bed, laying down next to him and getting the covers over them.

“Yeah, I am feeling better. Thanks, Luka.” Keith replied smiling and then rolled over on top of her and kissed her. “I’m better that you are here.”

“Oh, Keith, always a smooth talker, aren’t you? I thought that was Lance’s thing?” Luka asked as Keith put kisses on her neck.

“Hmm, no that’s my thing.” Keith chuckled as Luka pushed him off of her and she was sitting on top of him.

“Find that hard to believe, Keith. Now, goodnight. I am having a meeting in the morning with Uncle Coran. You, mister, have a mission tomorrow. So, rest up.” Luka said as she turned off the lights with Keith smiling and wrapping his arms around her waist.

One Miracle, One Life

A/N: Hope you all will like this one-shot i have made. Took me a while to do this. and I managed to finish it! Enjoy reading! Comment and feedback are much appreciated. 

@spacelion-loveshermulletson @whatusernamex3000 

Summary: After getting married, Keith and Luka are living a peaceful married life just the way they like it. Then one day, Luka has wonderful news to tell Keith.

Bang! Crash! Smash! There was countless vases being thrown on the floor and the walls. Hunk and Lance hugged each other tightly in fear and they heard a shrilling pained screams from the other side of the room. They also heard encouraging shouting and cheers from the girls and Keith as they shouted “Push! Push!”

Inside the room, there was pained screams and cries as Keith held on to his wife, Luka. “It’s okay, Luka. It’s okay! You are almost there!” Keith encouraged his wife. Luka nodded and whimpered in pain as she screamed in pain again.

Few months ago….

Luka woke up to a very bright and early morning turning to see Keith behind her and had his arms wrapped around her waist. She smiled warmly as she turned slowly towards him and kissed him on the cheek. Keith groaned moaned lightly as he woke up, seeing his beautiful wife watching him waking up. “Well, morning beautiful.” Keith smirked as Luka giggled and then threw a pillow at him.

“Good morning to you too.” Luka grinned.

“Hmm! Well, why don’t we go out somewhere where your uncle won’t find us.” Keith suggested as he got up and stretched.

“That’s sweet, love. But you know I have to help him with the prepares of the next event of Altea. He needs my help. I will be very busy all day with meetings. And Romelle had asked me to help her out, too.” Luka reminded him as she went in the bathroom to change into her clothes.

Keith slumped down and laid down on the bed again, groaning. Wanting to spend more time with his wife. “Ugh, and I have nothing to do expect to lay down on the bed all day.”

Luka huffed and walked out of the bathroom with arms on her hip and huffed as she saw Keith laying on the bed. She then walked to the bed and then used her Altean super strength to pull the quilt away from him.

“Hey, Luka!” Keith whined looking at Luka with a pout.

“I am not going to let you rest all day long. Hang out with one of your friends. Or take Kosmo on a walk. Be more effective in your spare time, love.” Luka kissed him on the cheek.

“See you later, love!” Luka called out to him.

“See you later, babe.” Keith replied as he turned to Kosmo who wagged his tail happily and panting. He sighed and decided to listen to what his wife had suggested for him to do. He then got dressed in his everyday clothes and decided to take a walk around Altea.

He smiled as he felt the wind blowing gently and seeing the juniberry petals being blown in the wind as it went past Allura’s statue. Keith smiled at the statue and then moved on walking along the path and saw an Altean child with their parents, playing in the fields. He wondered if he had kids on his own, he’ll be a good father and husband.

He admired his Pop, when he was younger. Always a hero in his eyes. He wished his dad was here to see his wedding, Luka and maybe his children. Then he heard Kosmo barking happily as he was licking an Altean child on the face. The child was laughing with joy.

“He is cute! What’s his name?” asked the child.

“He’s name is Kosmo.” Keith replied with a smile and pets Kosmo’s head.

“Cool!” The child exclaimed in awe as his parents called out to him and he waved goodbye. Keith waved back as he moved on with his walk.

In the kitchen, Luka was helping Romelle with fixing up meals with Merla. There was some visitors coming from other planets to visit. Luka was feeling fine until she felt a bit nausea. Maybe because of the food? Or was she just hungry? No, she was definitely going to throw up! Luka gagged and covered her mouth and went to the trash can in the corner and threw up!

“Luka!” Romelle exclaimed worriedly.

“Lu!” Merla came to her side and put her hair back while Romelle rubbed her back.

Luka then wiped her mouth and panted, breathing in and out until she threw up again. Romelle and Merla winced from smelling the horrifying smell. “Ugh, sorry girls.” Luka apologised.

“It is quite alright. We can take it from here and see the doctor.” Romelle smiled gently at her as Luka nodded and then walked out of the kitchen and Hunk came pass by and she sweats nervously as she began to walk away, not wanting to hear the wrath from the former Yellow Paladin.

“WHAT THE QUIZNACK IS THAT SMELL?!” Hunk bellowed. Luka winced when she heard him shouting in the kitchen and heard her friends trying to calm him down.

After visiting the doctor, she went to her room and paced back and forth. Breathing steadily as she looked at her wedding band on her finger and smiled, remembering her wedding with Keith. They promised to be there for each other, even in desperate and happy times in the future.

Luka then went to her closet, opening it and looked at the big box. Before she opened it, she looked to see if anyone was going in and saw no one is going to go in the room. She opened the box and took out a picture frame of her mother, father, uncle and herself as a baby girl. She smiled as she brushed her finger over the image of her parents.

She then placed a hand on her stomach. She is pregnant! She is really pregnant! She smiled brightly and squealed happily. Then she went out to see her friends.

“Oh, Lu-Lu!” Merla came hugging her tightly.

“Whoa, Merla! Oh, Merla, Romelle I have wonderful news to share with you.” Luka smiled brightly.

“What is it?” Romelle asked in confusion seeing she was looking sick and the next thing she saw Luka all ecstatic.

“Ok. I am expecting!” Luka said. Merla and Romelle froze, taking it all in as Luka saw beaming smiles and squealed loudly as Hunk came in.

“What’s with all the racket?” Hunk asked.

“Oh, Hunk, Luka’s pregnant!” Romelle exclaimed excitedly.

Hunk smiled and then began to make some cooing noises in front of her stomach. “Oh, Hunk, there is no bump just yet.” Luka giggled and then gasped realising something. “How am I going to tell Keith?” Everyone in the kitchen gasped. Also not thinking of how Keith will react.

Later that night, Keith came back to the Castle with Lance. “You know, Katie and I were still looking for a house to live in. You have any ideas?” Lance asked, looking at his tablets and the options of different houses on Earth.

“You are really serious about this.” Keith commented as he looked at the houses. He saw all different sizes of the houses. How big it is and how small it is. “Are you sure you don’t want to live near Pidge’s place?”

“Uh, and have Matt always staring at me all the time? No way!” Lance exclaimed. “Besides, I promised Katie to have a peaceful life after you-know-what.” Keith nodded in understanding and he also wanted that with Luka after they got married.

Lance’s phone then rang and he lit up as he smiled at Keith apologetically. “Hey, Katie, what’s up?”

Keith smiled and let him take the call. “Oh? Ok, I’ll see you later then. Bye.” Lance said as he ended the call.

“What’s up?” Keith asked.

“She’s been doing some projects for the Garrison with Shiro and her Dad. Tonight, she’ll be at her parents house for a bit.” Lance replied, wanting to spend more time with his wife. “She’s been busy and we haven’t spent time together.”

“Well, you are more than welcome to stay here.” Keith offered.

“Thanks man, so, where’s Hunk anyways?” Lance asked as they walked down the hallway and stopped when they saw Luka.

“Oh, Keith! Lance! Hello.” Luka smiled and hid something behind her back.

“We were just looking for Hunk. What’s wrong, babe?” Keith asked, seeing her nervous and worried about something.

“Oh, nothing is wrong. But I have an urgent matter to talk to you about, Keith. It is really important. I thought we could talk about it over dinner.” Luka suggested.

“Yeah, we could do that.” Keith says, kissing her on the temple.

“Well, you two have fun with that. I’ll just spend time with Hunk.” Lance says as he left to go to the kitchen. Leaving the married couple alone. Keith and Luka smiled at each other as they went to their room. Luka had fixed up dinner and Keith was sitting down waiting for the food to get ready.

Luka then came in with food for them to eat. “Dinner is served, darling.” Luka said as Keith smiled and smelt the delicious aroma.

“These look great, Lu.” Keith grinned as he started to eat but saw Luka was already eating, munching on the food. Seeing her craving for more food than usual for the past few days. He thought she must’ve been hungry.

Luka wiped her mouth sheepishly, “Sorry, I was uh, very hungry all day.”

“That’s understandable. So, what is it you want to tell me about?” Keith asked as Luka put down the spoon and fiddles with her hands.

“Well, what I was I going to say might surprise you. And um, well, this morning I had heard the most wonderful news.” Luka says with a glowing smile.

“What is it?” Keith asked, wondering what is the great news that makes her happy. He then saw Luka smiling at her. She was glowing.

“Keith, you are about to become a father.” Luka said smiling as she held his hand.

Keith’s face changed from concern to shock or unreadable to Luka, which worries her until Keith got out his chair and grabbed Luka by the waist and spun her around. “Really? Our first baby?!”

“Oh yes, darling. Our first child.” Luka giggled as Keith rubbed her stomach with a big smile on his face.

In the next few months, everyone were very delighted to see that they were going to have their first child. A Galran-Altean child. Keith has been doing his Blade of Marmora duties less and his mom has been taking over his role for a while and looked after Luka. Luka has been having cramps, mood swings then cramps again.

Keith has been looking after her as he stayed at home with her to keep her company and Coran sometimes came by and watch over his niece.

Luka, now with a big swollen stomach with a baby growing inside of her, is reading a book to her child with a smile as Kosmo slept next to her. Luka was reading a book on naming babies. She was having a difficulties on what to call her son or daughter. She then looked over at Keith who was at the dining table, looking at his work from the blades.

“Darling? Do you have any suggestion in naming our child?” Luka asked as she closed her book.

Keith looked at his wife and hummed, “I haven’t thought of one.”

“Hmm, me either. But was thinking of naming our own daughter after my mother. Ariella.” Luka says.

Keith smiled, “That’s a nice name.”

“Hmm, thanks. For a boy, Lucius?” Luka asked. Keith thought of it and shook his head.

“Ok, we’ll work on that.” Luka sighed and then gasped.

“You ok?” Keith asked as he jumped off the chair.

“I am fine. Another kick from our child. Mostly have your strength.” Luka chuckled.

“And your beautiful looks.” Keith smirked as Luka blushed deep red but still laughed then she felt another kick. She rubbed her tummy and breathed out. Luka then gasped and froze.

“Luka? Lu? Babe, what’s wrong?” Keith asked as he came to her side.

“I think you should take me to the infirmary. Because my water just broke.” Luka says grabbing Keith’s shirt.

Keith’s eyes widen and looked for the tablet and then called Merla and Romelle to come down. Keith carried Luka to their room and lay her down carefully with Keith muttering words of encouragement. Coran, Merla and Romelle came in just in time for the delivery.

Lance came in with hot water and some towels and saw Merla delivering the baby, hearing Luka straining. “Ok, that’s all! Now what?” Lance asked.

“Yeah, the doctors aren’t even here yet!” Hunk exclaimed.

“I am a nurse also! Tavo is busy right now!” Merla says as Romelle held Luka’s hand.

Everyone was shouting out words that was overlapping the shouting and screams. Luka then grabbed a vase that was next to her. Bang! Crash! Smash! There was countless vases being thrown on the floor and the walls. Luka was throwing vases at the two former paladins. Hunk has been screaming and shouting, overlapping with Lance shrieking in panic.

This makes Luka annoyed so she grabbed the vase on her bedside table and threw it at them. Making hem go out of the room.

Hunk and Lance hugged each other tightly in fear and they heard a shrilling pained screams from the other side of the room. They also heard encouraging shouting and cheers from the girls and Keith as they shouted “Push! Push!”

Inside the room, there was pained screams and cries as Keith held on to his wife, Luka. “It’s okay, Luka. It’s okay! You are almost there!” Keith encouraged his wife. Luka nodded and whimpered in pain as she screamed in pain again.

“Oh! I can’t do this!” Luka cried in pain.

“Almost there, Lu.” Keith said as he held her hand tightly.

Luka breathed in and out as Keith put her hair out of the way and kissed her on the head. Lance and Hunk waited outside of the room. Waiting and waiting. Pidge came and went inside the room to help.  They heard pained screams and cries again, making Lance pray for Keith and Luka.

After long hours, they heard a baby cries in the room. Keith was looking at his own child. He smiled and looked at their baby. “It’s a baby girl!” Merla announced and let Luka hold her daughter in her arms and smiled at her with love.

“Oh, Keith, she’s beautiful.” Luka says as tears rolled down.

“What are we going to name her?” Keith asked holding his daughter’s little hand.

“How about Cora? After Uncle Coran?” Luka asked. The two turned to see Coran having tears rolling down with a proud smile.

“Oh, that’s sounds like a wonderful name.” Coran says as he picked up his great-niece in his arms. He cooed at the baby girl in his arms and heard Luka yawning in exhaustion. “I will let you take a rest, my dear. I will take care of my great-niece.”

“Thanks, Coran.” Keith smiled.

Everyone left the couple in their quarters with Coran giving back Cora. Luka slept away with Keith rocking in his chair holding his daughter. He could see that she inherited her mother’s hair and her father’s eyes. Perfect combination from them. He smiled and kissed Cora on the head and let her sleep in the crib. Kosmo sniffed the baby and wagged his tail happily and then slept down on the ground next to the crib.

Keith turned to see Luka sleeping peacefully. He then laid down on the bed beside his lovely wife and wrapped his arms securely around her waist. Luka smiled and held his hands, prompting Keith to kissing her on the cheek and the new parents went to sleep, now entering a new chapter of their lives with their new daughter, Cora.

First Meeting

A/N: This is my very fist one-shot of Keith and Luka! I hope that you like this one @spacelion-loveshermulletson 

Keith, Acxa, Zethrid and Ezor had been handing in some food and supplies for the Alteans for the week and Lance helped out with Pidge. Pidge has been recently visiting him during her free time from the Garrison. After Allura’s death, Lance finally had moved on and begin to realise his feelings for Pidge.

“Ok that’s the last of it boss.” Zethrid grunted as she put down another container.

“Can we walk around Altea? Just for a few hours? Please?” Ezor asked with her best puppy dog eyes, or eye. Acxa smiled as she looked at Keith.

“Ok, meet me by the ship in two hours.” Keith says as Ezor saluted as the three Galran girls left him wandering around the Altean field.

Lance saw Keith wandering around the juniberry field with a sad look. “He really does miss her.”

Pidge nodded in agreement. “Yeah. it has been two years already and he still hasn’t moved on. I still tried to get him to ask some girls out, but he still doesn’t want to.”

Lance hummed. “Maybe he isn’t interested.” The two looked on sadly as they gave the food to the Altean children. Keith then went to the new constructed Castle of Lions. He smiled as he looked at the hallway and remembered the time when they all found the Blue Lion and went to Arus for the first-time meeting Coran and…

Keith then felt a hand on his arm and twisted it making him kneel down the floor and had his own blade on his neck. “Who are you? What are you doing in the New Castle of Lions? I demand to know!” yelled a young girl.

“Ahh, my name is Keith. I was the paladin of the Black Lion!” Keith strained as the girl immediately let him go. “Oh, my apologies. I uh, assumed you were the enemy.” The girl assumed as she knelt down in front of him.

“Yeah, well the Galra aren’t the enemy anymore.” Keith grunted as he massaged his arm back in place and faced the girl who had orange hair with bright golden eyes and red Altean markings on each cheek. She also has her hair in a ponytail and has two strands of hair braided and wearing a red and orange dress.

“Oh, you are one of the blades.” Said the girl. “Yeah… I am.” Keith trailed off as she offered her hand to stand up.

“My name is Luka. I believe I had met Princess Allura two years ago along with Romelle.” Luka smiled politely and introduced herself. “Y-Yeah, I-it’s nice to meet you.” Keith says a he took his hand out.

Luka blinked, tilting her head looking at his hand. “Er, is this an Earthling greeting?”

“Yes, it is. Just put out your hand like this.” Keith smiled and instructed as Luka did as he instructed her to do. She put out her hand then Keith shook it gently, feeling the warmth of her hand. “This is how we greet each other, like saying hello.”

“Interesting.” Luca smiled. “Erm, well sorry for uh, earlier. That was rude of me.” Luka apologised again, looking down on the floor as she gripped onto her dress.

“No. No, it’s ok. Um, uh, it’s good to always be on guard.” Keith says awkwardly as Luka giggled at his awkwardness.

“Well, then. It is such a great pleasure to meet your acquaintance and I have duties to attend to. I perhaps will see you around?” Luka says, hopeful to see him again.

“Yeah. Definitely, I will be around. I mean, I will see you when I have the time.” Keith says as Luka smiled and left towards the exit of the castle.

Keith let out a sigh of relief and went out of the castle for fresh air until he heard snickering not far from him. “Lance, Pidge I know you’re there!” Keith growled.

Lance and Pidge came out laughing at him. Keith crossed his arms with his face deep red. “Ahh, the great team leader Keith, so awkward and cute when it comes to talking to girls! Especially an Altean girl!” Lance laughed as Pidge smirked.

Keith then heard laughing and looked behind Lance, seeing Pidge looking down at something in her hand.

“Well, she did twist his arm.” Pidge chuckled looking at her phone.

“Oh, that part was hilarious!” Lance says.

“You recorded the whole thing?!” Keith asked angrily trying to get the phone from Pidge, but Lance blocked him from doing so.

“Yeah, so we can show it to the others.” Lance smirked as Keith took out his blade and turned it onto a long sword.

Lance whimpered. “Peanut, help me!” Lance screamed hiding behind Pidge as she giggled. “Ok, ok, boys. Fine. I deleted it.”

Keith smiled at her before he sent Lance a death glare and returned to his ship seeing that the girls were still looking around Altea. So, he went off to see the sights and then went to the statue of Allura. He smiled lightly as the breeze blew by, seeing the petals from the juniberry field blowing away in the wind.

Meanwhile, Luka went out to help getting the supplies in the castle in the kitchen as she put the boxes up on the shelf. Merla and Luka were sorting out the food for the new guests for the coalition meeting tonight.

Coran came in the kitchen trying to taste the new food, but Luka swiped his hand away. “Uncle, not ready yet!” Luca exclaimed.

“Oh, alright. But they better be good because the paladins care going to be with us for dinner tonight. So, be ready when you are, my dear.” Coran says.

“What? I thought I won’t be joining for dinner.” Luka tilted her head. “I thought it would be great for you to meet the paladins. Merla already met them herself.” Coran said gesturing to Merla who smiled.

“Don’t worry. They aren’t all that bad.” Merla winked at her, smiling brightly at her friend. Luka then blushed remembering her first meeting with Keith in the hallway.

Luka then turned to her Uncle, “F-Fine, then I’ll I join you for dinner Uncle.”

Coran nodded, satisfied then went off to do his duties around the Castle. Merla smirked, leaning towards her face. “What is it?” Luka growled softly.

“You met one of them? Which one?” Merla asked, grinning at her friend.

“What? Well, the paladin of the Black Lion.” Luka says slowly, darting her eyes away from Merla while hiding her blush from her.

“Ooh, how did you two meet?” Merla chimed. “I must know everything!”

“Well, I twisted his arm and demanded to know who he was, and I put the blade against his neck.” Luka said blandly to her friend.

Merla blinked a couple of times. “You really need to work on your social skills.”

At night, all of the coalition leaders were in the dining room along with the former paladins and Shiro. Keith was still in his blade uniform and sat next to Shiro who was looking at the tablet, “Keith, you ok?” Shiro asked. Keith nodded until the doors opened and saw Coran and Luka coming in with Merla. The meeting went smoothly as they all ate Hunk’s delicious meals and desserts.

Keith subtly looked back at Luka who was engaged in a conversation with Merla. He blushed a little when he saw her smile and turned away. Lance smirked and nudged his arm, “Go on, talk to her man!” Lance hissed.

“No! What if she doesn’t like me?” Keith asked. “Of course, she’ll like you! Now go out there and socialize.” Lance pushed Keith towards Luca.

At the same time, Luka was looking at the particular Blade leader. “Oh, come on Luka. Go and talk to him!” Merla giggled as Luca blushed deep red.

“No, I will absolutely not talk to him!” Luca exclaimed softly so no one can hear her and trying to get to calm her friend down. Not wanting to have attention from other people in the room.

“Oh, come on. Get out there and socialize!” Merla shoved Luca forward to talk to Keith.

Luka gasped as she started to make her way to finding Keith. In the crowd, Keith was passing by the leaders then he bumped into Luka in his arms. “Oh, h-hey.”

“Hello. Um, hope tonight’s meeting went smoothly.” Luka says as she fixed herself up and her dress.

“Guess it went well. There are some other Galra activities out there and we are working on it.” Keith says. “Don’t worry.”

Luka smiled, “That is excellent. That you’re doing your job I mean.”

Keith smiled at her and near the buffet, Romelle and Merla were gushing over the two as Hunk was munching onto the food, clueless on what was going on. “What’s going on?”

“Shh!” Romelle and Merla hushed Hunk as he stopped eating and looked at their direction as he opened up his mouth, food coming out and saw Keith talking to an Altean girl. Lance and Pidge were grinning as they saw their fearless team leader talking to the Altean girl they saw earlier.

“Have you had any other plans besides being a blade?” Luka asked as she drank her wine. “Not really. I uh, travel from time to time then settle down for the time being.” Keith replied as they walked their way to the balcony.

“Hmm, I want to learn more of the universe, but my uncle wanted me to stay here.” Luka says as she tucked a strand of her orange hair behind her ear.

“My mom and I are blade members and we often travel from planet to planet. Out there is amazing but, at the same time its…dangerous.” Keith says looking up at the sky and saw stars shaped as Allura. Their friend, their princess and their saviour. Keith looked away as he leaned on the railings of the balcony.

“Maybe one day I’ll be out there.” Luka said as she felt the cool breeze as her long hair blew gently in the wind. Keith watched as her eyes sparkled in the night as the reflection of the stars in her eyes sparkled.

“Maybe one day, I’ll take you out there to explore the universe. With extra protection of course.” Keith smirked.

“Oh, Keith. I am capable of looking after myself. I was considered as the most gifted pilot!” Luka pouted, crossing her arms.

“I was also considered as a gifted pilot in the Garrison on Earth. Then I got kicked out because of my discipline issues back then.” Keith says looking at the horizon in Altea.

“Well, you are not like that at all from what I have heard and seen. You are gifted. That’s makes you special and be admired by other people. You lead people to having hope to have a better future in the universe. We are eternally grateful to you Paladins.” Luka says, putting her small hand on his.

Keith smiled at her, “Thanks, Luka. We could go on a race some time. If you are feeling confident about it.”

Luka then had this big grin on her face. “Oh, you better watch yourself pretty boy.” Keith and Luka then broke out into laughter as they talked through the night.

Inside the castle, Coran was looking for Keith everywhere in the room but couldn’t find him. Then he went to see if Lance and Pidge had seen Keith. But then froze when he had saw the couple making out at their table and then cleared his throat. “Ahem!”

Then Lance and Pidge pulled away from each other as Lance saw Coran standing in front of their table. “H-hey, Coran!” Pidge turned red and covered her face not wanting to face the royal Altean advisor.

“Well, hello there. Hope I am not interrupting anything, but have you seen Keith anywhere? I got urgent word from Krolia. She said that Keith is needed for an urgent mission.

“Well, we just saw him talking to an Altean girl out in the balcony.” Pidge said.

Coran raised an eyebrow, “And do you know what she looks like?”

“Orange hair, golden eyes and Altean red markings. Has the same hair colour as you apparently.” Lance said, describing how the Altean girl looked like.

“What? My niece talking to Keith?!” Coran exclaimed, banging his fists on the table, surprising the two former paladins.

“What?! You have a niece?! When?! How?! You never told us!” Lance exclaimed.

“Well, It never came to my mind until now. Yes. I do have a niece and her name is Luka.” Coran said, returning to his calm demeanour.

“The Altean that attacked is on Earth years ago?” Pidge asked, adjusting her glasses and fixed herself, sitting up in her chair.

Coran nodded. “Yes. Well as you were. I’ll keep on looking for them.”

In the balcony, Luka was laughing with joy and asked. “Ahh, ok. Ok. So, this Lance was really stuck in that room when he was about to get suck out to space?”

Keith nodded, “Yeah, I had to save his butt while I was fighting the sim-robot.”

“Wow, your adventures out there are so lively! Can you tell me stories about Princess Allura?” Luka asked. “There are so much I want to know about her!”

Keith’s smile disappeared and then turned into a frown. Luka immediately felt bad for asking him that. “It was insensitive of me. Apologies.”

“No, no. It’s ok. I uh, could tell you one.” Keith smiled a little but heard the doors opened and saw Coran coming out.

“Ahh, Luka and Keith, there you are. Been looking for you everywhere!” Coran appeared.

“Sorry Coran, we were just talking.” Keith says.

“I see, having a great time talking to my niece.” Coran winked at Keith as he heard Luka groaned in annoyance and embarrassment.

Keith’s eyes widen and looked down at the Altean girl then back to Coran, “N-Niece? You never mentioned you have a niece.”

“Well, I had thought my family were caught in the attack of Altea, but I was wrong. I still have my niece here, alive and well.” Coran says.

Luka smiled. “Yes. I am glad too, Uncle. Do you need anything?” Luka asked.

“Well, came to say that Keith needs to leave for a mission with Krolia.” Coran says turning to Keith. “Your mother says its urgent that you need to be there.” Keith nodded as Luca slumped down, wanting to talk to him more.

Keith looked at Luka who had a sad frown on her face. “Hey, I’ll be back. Some time.” Keith chuckled.

“Alright. I’ll be waiting until you return. It is a pleasure to meet one of the paladins of Voltron.” Luka says as she stood on her toes giving Keith a small peck on the cheek then left her uncle and new friend on the balcony.

Keith froze at the close contact with Luka and turned to Coran who gave him a serious look. “You better treat my darling, little niece with extra care and if you hurt her. I’ll have no hesitation to hunt you down.”

Keith nodded quickly as Coran changed his mood to his normal demeanour. “Great. Now, have a lovely night.”

Keith let out a sigh of relief and decided to go down to his ship. Before he goes to his mission, Hunk gave him food for the trip and said his goodbyes to his friends and he went down to where he saw Acxa standing, waiting for Keith. “All ready for departure, Keith.” Acxa says.

Keith nodded then looked back at the castle with smile before heading inside. “Let’s go.” In the castle, Luka looked up in the night sky seeing his ship taking off to space. She smiled brightly, knowing he’ll come back someday.
