The paladins had had a very peaceful week, nothing out of the ordinary happened, the castle of lions was quiet, only the machines and engines to hear, all of their habitants were sleeping, except for one. Keith was wandering in the bridge, looking at the stars, wondering quietly, but not for long, the ship’s alarm was set off and he rushed to his seat, shortly after that, Shiro was entering the bridge, followed by Coran, Allura, and the other paladins. They investigated for the source, but nothing seemed off, after an hour of searching for distressed calls or any possible damage that could have the castle, they returned to their dormitories. Lance was about to part two when he realized that Keith was still on the bridge, looking at the stars, so he stayed by his side, not talking, just keeping each other company. Suddenly there was a loud clatter with the sound of screams all over the place, they rapidly turned around, their hearts were beating fast, eyes wide open, Lance was shaking and Keith noticed so, he took his hand in his, sweat in both hands, but not mattering to any of them, then it was dead silent. Something crash loudly at the door’s bridge making a dent, Lance and Keith stopped breathing for a moment, Lance clenched harder to Keith’s hand, something that looked like a hand grasped the door and opened it, showing the creature, it was like nothing they have seen before, it was indescribable, inhuman, it had three like fingers in each of what appeared to be his arms, it was curved, with a long body and a long head, lots of teeth surrounding where its’ mouth should be. The thing approached slowly, they knew there was nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, so they turned around again, taking each other's hands, watching the stars once more, though they knew it was the last.
