Chapter 37: [33]



It's been a few years since I've come to the Voltron Universe and made a home for myself here on Altea, the Alteans…are so much different than humans while looking so similar it has honestly been difficult to adapt, they are a kind loving species…and the loving kindness isn't limited to just their own kind…truly Alteans are a beautiful people…

Between bringing Talon, and the twins here after establishing a home base and nurturing a relationship with Queen Melenor, King Alfor, Coran and Princess Allura…who loves when I take my Animagus form which is a big white lion…that she loves to crawl all over and take naps on.

The Twins have become Melenor's honor guard while Talon has taken to her mission that I've given her of tracking down all traces of Trans-reality ore that Voltron is made of to add to my supply…which is enough to make Voltron twenty times over already.

'I still don't understand what happened that day between Melenor and I or how she was able to glean future events just from our contact but.. in skill with Altean Alchemy and Magic she is the third greatest practitioner currently alive…and thanks to her and Alfor 's tutelage…I am quickly shaping up to be an Alchemist of renown as well.'

"Ban…I still don't understand why…the universe needs another Voltron…or why you want to make a cityship built for war…can't you share your secrets with me like you have with Melenor? You are my brother!" Alfor calls out my Alias and begins pestering me as he has for the last year ever since I called in my favor for him to help in designing a cityship similar to Atlantis in SGA but reinforced for space warfare.

"Alfor we have been over this I cannot share events with you without risking a future where Allura's and the universe's safety is assured…trust in me, and that what I do I do for the betterment of all." I reply to my friend knowing just how to manipulate him.

"I do trust you Ban…I just wish that you would put the same trust in me as I have in you…" Alfor trails off as he turns back to a schematic of the original Atlantis…that I borrowed from the universe along with Gate Technology and other things.

"I have…if I didn't I wouldn't have brought you in on this project, one that will ensure the future that we both want…for Allura…" I use my manipulation skills again as I rest my hand on Alfor's shoulder and use a minor cheering charm on him.

"Then we better not waste any more time!" Alfor looks over his shoulder at me with a big grin on his face and I start to feel bad for manipulating him, before pushing those feelings away.

"Yeah we better not." I return Alfor's grin with a matching one and get back to helping figure out the best way to combine zero point modules and Bulmerian crystals.

Alfor and I watch as the construction drones complete building the base superstructure of my Atlantis City-battleship.

"Atlantis will be the envy of all planets once she is complete…" Alfor says in appreciation of what we'd end up creating together…the plans of the city-ship from SGA…had only been a very very small piece of the puzzle.

"Yes she will be…now Katara passed along a message that Melenor and you had a surprise for me…" I probe my friend who's stoic mask starts to slip…there's one annoying thing about my friend King Alfor…and that is whenever he tries keeping a secret he puts on a mask of stoicism.

"Okay okay, but you can't tell Melenor or the others because they'll tell on me to her…and then I'll have to sleep on your couch for a month like after Mel caught Allura practicing with a longsword…in those fighting forms you and Lady Talon use." Alfor pleads to me on his knees clenching the front of my shirt in both hands…which would be funny if a servant girl wasn't watching us with a blush on her face and a look in her eyes like some naked shenanigans are about to go down.

"Stop that before malicious rumors start, it was hard enough to quench the ones that I was Mel's lover…I don't want to hear one about me being your's." I groan and catch a glint in Alfor's eyes that I don't like one bit.

"H-how can you be so cold after all the…beautiful things you've shared with Queen Melenor and I both…the way you make us both toil away to please you in our royal chambers…" Alfor starts feeding the servant girl her finger banging material for a lifetime as my right eye starts to twitch and small bolts of lighting start to dance along my body…making all the color drain from Alfor's caramel colored skin.

"I hope Allura is ready to lead…" I joke as I make a ball of swirling lightning from in my right hand.

Suddenly Coran appears, "I'm sorry to interrupt my King, Lord Ban…but Emporer Zarkon has requested King Alfor's presence on Daibazaal…it has to do with Alchemist Homerva's findings.

"Hmm…it seems the universe has dained to postpone your execution Alfor…" I joke which makes Coran and the servant pass out.

"Such a cruel lover…no wonder Lady Talon stays away for such long periods of time…" I feel like Alfor just gut punched me, though I know he didn't mean to…his words hurt all the same.

"I-I'm sorry Ban…I didn't mean…"

"I know…" I forgive him and offer him a hand up.

"Would you like to come to-" Alfor begins to invite me to Daibazaal but I quickly wave off the invite.

"Nope, I'm quite content to stay as far away from those assholes as possible." I say and am referring to both Zarkon and Homerva.

"I wish you would try to get past the animosity between the three of you. Zarkon isn't so bad once you get past the…"

"There is no getting past them trying to experiment on Talon and I!" I put an immediate end to the conversation.

"I understand…I'll be back soon…and then we can go see your surprise…oh and Melenor has told me…Allura has vowed to marry you…and she's said as much to me herself as well." Alfor says and then runs away, I look at his retreating back and release a sigh.

'Talon told me that Allura confessed as much to her as well…I just hope that there's enough time left to complete building Atlantis before the destruction of Daibazaal…which will lead to the destruction of Altea and all planets in their control.

But with Zarkon summoning Alfor to Daibazaal the destruction of both…are fast approaching.'

'I should work on repairing the rift in mine and Talon's relationship...though how can I fix it when she's upset over the fact that I have refused to change the cannon event of Altea's... destruction...when I could prevent it?'
