Purple blur. (Galra keith) (Voltron fanfiction)

Bipolar desert planet

--------A few hours later---------

The paladins had safely moved Shiro to a healing pod to wait for him to wake up. Everyone had stayed in the infirmary with shiro except the alteans who need to run the ship. 

No one spoke, they were in a place all of their own, staring off into space.

A sound of the pod opening ripped them out of their daze, Hunk lunged forward and caught their captain from falling on the unforgiving ground. The paladins gathered around shiro, who was looking up at them with groggy eyes. 

"Hey guys. How long was I out?" Pidge burst into tears and took a running start into a vice grip on shiro midsection. Lance then joined, hugging them both, hunk came quickly after, bear hugging them and lifting them off the ground slightly. 

Shiro smiled, however it quickly turned to confusion as he looked at the rest of the room, expecting Keith to be standing off to the side with a small smile on his face, however he didn't find him there, and naturally he ask questions. 

When they pulled away from the hug, all of the remaining paladins having plastered a smile on their faces that was topped with tear marks on their faces, sans shiro, who has  confusion plastered on his face as he continued to look for Keith around the room, thinking he had missed him with his vision obscured by the bodies of the others. 

Shiro looked back at them with his confused expression that made the others become curious as to what he was about to ask about.

"Where is Keith?" Shiro asked them innocently. Their expressions turned darker, and sad. 

They avoided Shiro seemingly burning eye contact. 

Shiro started to become worried. He looked at all of them one by one, trying and failing for clues.  "What's wrong?" 

Hunk stepped up and grabbed his arm, still looking away from Shiro. They knew this was going to happen as soon as they saw Shiro, however just because they knew does not mean that they can't try and avoid it. 

Hunk swallowed the spit that was gathering from nervousness, and then he spoke, pulling Shiro towards the control room. 

"You might want to see for yourself Shiro." 

Shiro only became for confused, however he was determined for answers, and followed Hunk.

As they entered the control room, Allura and Coran looked their way and went to hug Shiro, but stopped when they saw Hunks dark expression. Lance and Pidge entered the room son after wearing the same dark expressions. 

Hunk left Shiro, and walked towards Allura, quietly saying. "Please pull out camera recording from six days earlier at 12:30 am." Allura plastered a worried look on her pace and said. "But thats the t-" 

"I know" Huk interrupted softly. "Shiro has a right to know what happened, without having our opinions cloud his judgement of what has happened to.......to him." 

Allura smiled sadly, and pulled up the feed on a holographic feed that zipped into existence on a larger screen in the room. It was paused until further notice. 

They looked back at Shiro, who looked at the screen, it was paused on Keith and Pidge talking. 

"Can someone tell me what's going on?" Shiro asked sharply. Allura sighed and said. "We are showing you what happened. I don't think anyone in this room has the heart to tell you." She looked Shiro in the eyes, and the screen hovered closer to Shiro untill it was right in front of him. 

It then unpaused. 

"Will red be ok?" 

"For the twentieth time, YES!"
