"LANCE!" Pidge screams as Lance is hit by a purple beam and slowly begins to shrink. Pidge shoots the creature then rushes to Lance's suit.
"Lance?" Slowly a 4 year old Lance pushes the helmet off his head and looks around
"W-who arwe you?" The small Lance looks around and sees Keith running toward them. He rushes out of his much too big suit to Keith, butt naked.
"KEIF" Lance yells and he clings to Keith's leg.
"What happened?" Keith asks and pulls Lance off his legs and holds him.
"Lance got hit...I dont know why he's a baby now though," Suddenly a boom is heard and the 3 turn.
"The blue lion! They made him a baby so he couldn't persue them as they took his lion!" Pidge begins to contact the ship.
"We need help, Lance is a baby and they got the blue lion." The ship lands and Shiro runs to them.
"Keith, give him here" Shiro reaches for Lance but he clings to Keith.
"I wanna stay with my keif!" Lance cries. Shiro takes a step back.
"Alright. You can stay with Keith. Let's just get on the ship." Shiro says calmly and gets everyone on the ship.
"Lance, what do you remember?" Pidge asks.
"Uh i wememba my mommy and papa, i go to skoowl evey day, my name lance, i foe, and my keif"
"I think he's lost every memory before age four, by why does he remember Keith?"
"Lance you don't remember me? Its Hunk, buddy..." Hunk says softly.
"Uh nuh uh i sowwy unk i no wememba yous" Lance says getting upset that he's surrounded by unfamiliar people. He clings to Keith tighter and grips a small part of Keith's hair accidentally pulling.
"Ouch Quiznak Lance! Easy with the hair." Keith pulls Lance's chubby little fingers from his hair.
"I sowwy, keif!" Lance's eyes well with tears and Keith quickly shushes him
"Shhh, Lance its ok...don't cry I'm alright." He gently rubs Lance's little back. He starts sniffling and the tears go away.
"See all better." Keith says smiling. The other 3 paladins, Coran and Allura are shocked at Keith's behavior.
"Well his speech is fine and he looks healthy but we might want to give him a check up." Pidge says calmly after observing Lance.
"NO!! NO TEKUP" Lance yells not being able to say his 'ch' sound yet.
"Alright baby blue no check up." Keith sits down with Lance on his lap. All the paladins realize Lance is still butt naked and Coran runs and gets a little pink dress and a blue onesie. "This is all we have left of Allura's baby clothes." He hands Keith the onesie
"Lance do you use the potty like a big boy or do you still wear diapers?" Shiro asks bending to be eye level with him.
"I go on potty! I big boy!" Lance yells proudly.
"Inside voice baby blue" Keith says softly.
"Sowwy keif" Lance says in a quieter voice and lets him put the onesie on his body.
"Its okay, baby blue." Keith kisses Lance's forehead softly. Coran leaves and comes back with a box.
"We may not have clothes but we have altean toys, bottles, and a few pacifiers I believe," He says pulling things out till he finds a glowing blue pacifier which looks quite similar to one from Earth "We'll stop at a nearby planet to buy him some things." Coran hands Keith the pacifier and he slips it between Lance's lips.
"Now, Lance, you only get these to sleep understand? No getting attached it, your pretty teeth will get messed up." Keith says sternly as Lance starts sucking on the pacifier. He nods and slowly his eyes close and he's fast asleep.
"Goodnight, baby blue."
