Pidge held a meeting in the confrence room, where everyone was watching her bring up a holographic screen. "So as confirmed before, Shiro is located outside the city of Marmora." A picture a a pitch black place showed on the screen."One sec, Green and I made a new robot. His name's Rover, I'll send him in since he's outside the base Lotor gave us. Activating invisible cloak." The room was still dark the the gray lines around the cameras turned invisible.

"Wow it's really dark. Rover, turn on the lights." Hunk said.Rover let off a light green glow. A long purple hallway was shown. Rover flew down the hallway, showing agents and guards wearing masks. Keith got annoyed at how slow they were going. "Tch, Rover, go to that room over there."

Rover hovered by the room Keith pointed out. He fiddled with the lock for a bit before opening it. The paladin's eyes opened in shock and Keith noticed Lotor's eyes a a greedy gleam in them. There was hundreds of jars filled with a light blue substance. Quintessance. Rover snapped pictures of the room and what surrounded it. "Hold on, the tracker is giving me something." Everybody waited impatiently for an answer. "GUYS, I've got it! Shiro's location!" Pidge typed down the coordinates and sent them to Rover. Rover zoomed to a room not far from the quintessance room. He fiddled with the lock as the paladin's hearts sped up. Keith thought he was gonna be ready for the sight he was about to see. He wasn't.

Rover opened the door and saw Shiro's unconscious bleeding body. Allura and Hunk closed their eyes. Lance and Pidge put a hand to their mouths and watched in horror. And Keith...Keith was crying. Tears streamed down his face as someone, the one person who cared for him during those hard times years ago, layed bleeding. Keith collapsed to his knees and covered his face. He hated being vulnerable. Shiro's breathing was raspy, and he had a new bleeding scar over his nose. Keith forced himself to look back at him and choked back a sob. Shiro's right arm was missing, showing torn muscle. Blood was dripping down into a dark puddle.

Rover took pictures of the room, avoiding Shiro and the state he's in. Rover flew out and a few minutes later entered the room. Everyone was silently crying, except for Lotor who was holding Allura. Keith was crying into Lance's shirt as beads of tears fell from Lance's eyes. Red and Black climbed on top of Keith onto his lap. Lance looked up and saw the other lions doing the same, including Blue. Red looked at Keith and nodded.

"Let's get Shiro."
