"God, what was that thing." Cammy wrinkled her nose in distaste. "Some sort of UFO with a shitty color scheme? Makes you wonder what was on it. Or why they were here."

Alex ran his finger round the edge of the cup he was holding before draining the contents and putitng it in the sink, "They might be here for…" He muttered, "Have you guys experienced any weird frequencies or anything along those lines recently?" He asked, looking up.

Cammy looked to Pidge, who nodded. "I've been picking up the same repeated frequency. One word, over and over. Voltron." He said, digging around his bag and pulling out the piece of paper he'd shown Cammy and Hunk earlier.

"Voltron…" Alex took the paper and studied it carefully, "That ship, it might be here for whatever this Voltron is."

"Which means we have to find it first." Cammy said, folding her photo and tucking it back in the pocket of her varsity jacket.

"For leverage, or against them?" Pidge asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Both. If it's a weapon we can use it to blast them out of the sky, send a warning to any other aliens out there." Alex shrugged, running a hand though his hair.

"And what if there are friendly aliens?" Cammy countered, raising her own eyebrow. "I'm not saying these ones are, obviously, but what if there's more life out there than these purple-loving emo fucks?"

"We'd have to make contact, to see if they were or not. If they're hostile, we use whatever this Voltron is to attack, if it's a weapon, if they're docile, we don't. Easy."

Cammy shook her head, but bit her tongue."How do we find it, then? Wait for Shiro to wake up, see if he has any hints, or knows something? Or do we just…wait."

Again, Alex shrugged, "I say we wait for Shiro, see if he knows anything that could help us… if he doesn't wake soon we'll just have to go looking for Voltron without him."

"Let's play the waiting game." Cammy sang under her breath, slipping the flask from her back pocket and taking a drink. Bottoms up to aliens.

Alex grimaced a little, "I don't even want to know what the hell is in that flask but I'm guessing it's nothing good for you…" He shook his head a little with a sigh.

"Actually, wine has proven health benefits." Cammy countered, shaking the flask a little. She hadn't been able to get her hands on whiskey, so she'd settled with stealing a bottle of wine. Which was also in her bag. "Red wine's been shown to make your heart stronger, protecting against cancer and other heart-related diseases."

Alex rolled his eyes, crossing his arms with a sigh, “Still, it’s a miracle you didn’t get caught. Then again if you did I wouldn’t have to deal with your annoying ass but oh well.”

"If I had got caught, nobody woulda been there to tell you which hallway to go down." Cammy shot back, making direct eye contact with him as she took another drink.

He narrowed his eyes, "They were scientists, they're not that hard to take down."

"They're Garrison scientists." She said, shaking her head. "I'm pretty sure they've started teaching them combat shit."

"The ones around Shiro didn't put up much of a fight. One of 'em did, yet he still went down." Alex shrugged.

Cammy made a face, then shrugged. "Maybe you just know more than them then."

"Maybe, maybe not. We're outta there now and that's all that matters." He ruffled his hair, strands of it falling across his face.

"Hm, point." Cammy conceded, taking another swig. Talking to him was like a mental workout, for god's sake. She was coming down off the adrenaline high, leaving her without much to distract her, since Pidge had flopped to the ground and was busy with his computer.

Luckily for Cammy, and for Alex, it wasn't long after that that Shiro was awake, stumbling out of the room, "Anyone got any water?" He raised a brow and Alex quickly grabbed a glass, filled it and handed it to the older man.

"No water, just wine." Cammy shook her head, watching Alex fill the glass as she took another drink. She was standing five feet from a legend, a man who'd inspired her to become a pilot in the first place.

Shiro offered Cammy a half smile before he downed the drink, "You're Cammy, right?" He shot Alex a quick look before looking back at the female.

Cammy blinked, tilting her head to the side. "I am. How exactly do you know that?" She caught the look her gave Alex, only furthering her confusion.
