Chapter Text
I fight back tears as I watch my child who is almost asleep, it’s the last time I will ever see him and it is also the last he will see of the world for just under ten thousand years. I muster up the best smile I can as I lean over to kiss him on the check one last time when he suddenly jolts up, his normally messy hair looking even more crazy the usual.
“Mom?” he asks
“Yes darling?” I say trying to remain happy in front of my son
“Can you tell me a story before you go?” he asks
I honestly do not have the time but I also do not have the will power to leave my child behind just yet so I say
“Sure what do you want your story to be about?”
“hmmmmmm….” He says tilting his head “something about heroes”
I do not know many story’s that have heroes in them, but a story does come into mind when he says this so I begin
“This is the story of then magic robot Voltron and how it came to be but beware this story is not for the weak of heart “
“Mom I’m a big boy I can handle it” he says standing up on his bed with his hands on his hips
“Yes I know now lay back down and let me start the story” I say laughing
