No. 20 - LOST & FOUND { Alt prompt - Loosing controll }

Keith had been feeling strange lately, he couldn't really explain why. This morning when he woke up to find purple splotches all over him he headed straight to Coran. He was in the med bay as usual working on something Keith knew he wouldn't understand. Keith told Coran about the purple splotches he found and after Coran had taken a look he concluded that it must have been something Keith ate bringing his galra form. However he said there shouldn't be anything to worry about.

Keith went on with the rest of his day as normal until around about dinner. The paladins where eating dinner in the dining hall when Keith's full transformation happened. His skin and hair turned shades of purple, two of his teeth turned into fangs and his skin burned. It felt like his skin was on fire, he screamed out in pain falling to his knees. The other paladins where quick to look over at Keith who was now curled into a tight ball whimpering in pain.

Hunk was the first to try and approach Keith but had little luck as Keith scratched at his arms leaving them bleeding a lot. Lance was the second paladin to try however he yielded the same result. That's when seemingly Keith lost control, a shift in his demeanour was the tell tell sign. Shiro was the first to notice the change but he didn't react quickly enough. It took Shiro just under an hour to catch Keith.

Finally though Keith was now contained in a cell on the lower deck of the castle. He was practically running circles in the cell every now and then running into the glass in an attempt to break it. It broke Shiro's heart because he knew what it was like to have no control over what your doing but still knowing your doing it.

Keith continued running rampant in the cell until eventually he fell asleep leaning against the glass of the cell. The paladins where at a loss on what to do so they had to call in Galran reinforcements. Kolivan, Thace and Regris all showed up following Coran down to the cells.

The paladins only hoped that the three Galran males knew how to change Keith back or at the very least teach him to control it.
