Survival Of The Innocent (Book 1 of Fates Entwined) by MEJ2235
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender

Summary
One deca-phoeb, a Galra female kept the Galra from finding the Blue Lion. However, her ship received damages and she crashed. A human found her, badly injured, and took care of her. With time, this human gained her trust and affection. A baby boy was born to them and they were happy. They though nothing could ruin their happiness; they were wrong.
The Galra picked up the signals of the Blue Lion and returned to Earth. She left to protect her family and the Lion but her husband followed her. He helped, but did not survive. The Lion was safe but she had lost her lover and her little child had lost a father. She took him with her, in the hope of keeping him safe and protecting the Lion, but they were captured by the Galra. She was forced to fight for their lives in the arena, but lost her own eventually. Her child grew up, learning the Galra customs and fighting styles, fighting - no, surviving - in the arena. He befriended other gladiators and taught them how to survive, even the Champion.
Together, the Champion and the child escaped, headed to Earth, in hopes to protect what had cost the child so much and could change the fate of the entire Universe.

Summary
Keith didn’t know how long he stayed there, the only living thing among a hoard of corpses, but he had no drive to leave. After all, Lance was dead. So why was he still alive?
“Such a tragedy.” A foreign voice sliced through the silence.
“Do you want to die too?” Keith asked, his voice no more than a hoarse whisper.
“Death is inevitable,” the stranger responded, “made all the more tragic when one’s time comes before it was meant to.”
“I don’t care for cryptic bull shit right now"
“Hm,” the stranger hummed. “I’ve seen soul mates grieve less than you do for your brother. Your bond must be great, indeed. So I will offer you a deal.”
“A deal?”
“If you help me and become my apprentice, I will return your brother’s life to you.”

Five Relics, a ritual to bring back the dead, and a new Paladin. The race begins. -

Summary
This story is about the difficulty of giving yourself completely to another person, being addicted to a sort of failure and rebirth and the fight to break the cycle.
Sometimes we don’t know what we have until we lose it, and we don’t know what we want until we’re forbidden from having it. And when that bucket full of icy water drops on our head it feels like we’ve been dumped into a rebellious ocean, in an impossible fight against the tide.
Well, sometimes to reach the shore you have to let the tide drag you away first.
...
Lance disappears. Keith will turn the whole universe upside down if he has to just to find him. They both learn the lessons they have yet to learn the hard way.

Summary
Karma.
He had taken a body, not his own and made it his own. Another had done the same to him.
Nearly a year gone to the clone… now nearly three to a ship. He supposed he should be grateful that this time it seemed that no time had passed for him, where as in Black, it had been an eternity. He was becoming something else, something not human, only to get sucked out of infinity and crammed into a flesh chassis he hadn't been born with. He didn't have to re-learn what it was to be human this time and he could only imagine the consequences he'd have to pay for that mercy.

Summary
Voltron has always been an elusive, inevitable threat to the Galra Empire, scattered across the universe and hiding for centuries for its fated paladins to rise to their destined calling. They found and captured the Red Lion but it was not enough to thwart the future. Honerva foresees years ahead, catching a glimpse of the five future paladins. She knows enough. She knows where their homeplanet lies (and all of them conveniently come from one place), she knows their names and faces, and she knows their respective Voltron Lions.
In a desperate attempt to alter the future, Honerva sets out to capture the paladins at a young age and ensure they will never pilot the Lions. By conditioning their minds and transforming their bodies, she trains and raises a team of perfect galran soldiers. She strips them of everything they once were to ensure they can never rise up as the defenders of the universe they were meant to become.
Despite the horrors of Honerva's cunning plan, the Lions are adaptable to the dire circumstances and Lance still has a wild streak of luck in determining their roles in the universe.
