Keith floated around the cells looking for Lance. "Lance! Lance! Where are you?" He sighed and slumped onto the ground, "Where are you, Lance?"After a while of sitting in silence. Keith started to hear sniffles. He followed the sound and came across Lance sitting in the corner of the cell, crying. The sight broke his heart. He didn't understand how they could do such a thing.
"Lance?" The boy's head shot up at the mention of his name. His eyes were red and puffy, he was definitely crying. His eyes narrowed when he saw Keith, "Leave me alone. You're not real." It sounded like he was trying to convince himself of what he just said.
Keith looked over at him, "I am real! I'm right here Lance!" Lance ignored him. He mumbled to himself, "You aren't real. You aren't real." He tried to convince himself that Keith was gone. Dead. Not coming back. He tried, he really did, but Keith's nagging and begging was hard to ignore.
Keith tried to pick Lance up, but his hand slid through Lance's body. He looked down, remembering why he had originally looked for Lance.He cursed in Japanese. He was becoming more and more transparent. Keith was worried he would die fully, and no longer be a ghost. But right now, that didn't matter. He had to save Lance.
The team walked into the cell. For a split second, Pidge thought she saw an oh-so-familiar Mullet, but when she blinked, it was gone. They told themselves that it was just a trick of light. Hunk sympathetically looked at Lance. He knew Keith's death might hit hard, but he never could've thought that his best friend would go insane. Shiro looked at the poor boy. Shiro understood he was upset, he really did. Shiro still walked to Keith's room to ask him if he wanted to train. He still went to Keith's room to tell him dinner was ready. He still walked in, before realizing he wasn't there. He wouldn't be there ever again. Allura wondered why Keith's death affected Lance so badly. They weren't friends, they were rivals. So why was Lance out of all people affected so badly? (A/N Allura didn't know until she met romelle and was taken by the gay agenda)
Lance ignored the footsteps. Lance ignored the gazes of his friends. He ignored Keith's begs, Keith's pleas to try to escape. Lance was done. He didn't care. He tried to convince himself that Keith wasn't there. The hand that tried to touch him wasn't there. The panicked voice of Keith wasn't there. Keith's transparent floating body wasn't there. Keith wasn't there. Lance begged Keith to leave. He pleaded with him. He pleaded that Keith would leave. He prayed that Keith would just go away.
