“Look, I will try it … But this thing..”he said holding up his wrist. “allows me to change into aliens. I can’t take it off … And if I am right.. Then the people who were after me to retrieve this – Wont stop there. They will scenes that this thing has left the earth atmosphere… or what ever. And come after everyone here.”He paused. “I would just be adding to the chaos. And besides.. I am no leader of anyone.”He sighs …
Allura looked down and then bit her lip as well hearing that the other was alien. But, that could come in handy at some point. Maybe. “Ben, I know you are going through some things. But we have something here that might be able to take the bracelet off if you wish while you are here. It would be safe on this castle. i assure you .. Please, just help us.”She tried to assure the young one that he was indeed safe here like the other paladins were.
“I said, I would try”he said frustrated to the woman at her insistence on him getting in that thing. “And I doubt it will chose me. I am not someone anyone would want to follow.”He stated more so to himself then out loud as he let them follow the way, his arm still in a sling from the injury he sustained from the most recent battle he partook in.
Once in the hanger, he saw that there was some sort of field around the black lion. But then, when he went up to it… He felt the shield lower. I guess that is something.
Allura was practically squeezing Keith’s hand as she saw the boy go into the lion. For the lion to drop its guard and let Ben in, was a very good sign. A very good sign indeed. They waited for at least 30 ticks and she was doubting that the lion would choose the boy when something was happening. The lion was starting to stir. It couldn’t be –
Inside Ben was about to get out when seat belts strapped him in,”No— NO, no, no, no— you dont want me – AWE MAN”he sighed as the lion started to jolt. “Please, you don’t want me”he begged as the lion shook and then turned on to stand and all systems came online. Only once things were booted up and systems online did the machine decide to roar, as if announcing to the universe that a new paladin had been chosen.
Ben sat there and just lowered his head in defeat. He guessed he was staying at this place more so than he had originally planed. When he woke, his first task was to find a ship and to get out of here before he could risk anything or have one of his enemies find him here and hurt those innocent on this ship first. Trying to defend him. He didn’t like being defended or having to be rescued at any point in time.
