Keith looked in the mirror as his usual pale skin was slowly starting to turn purple, he now has cat like ears and claws. He mumbled under his breath slightly packing as he was transforming. ' what would the others think...' he thought to himself and collapsed onto the floor leaning against the door trying to process what was happening. He hadnt left his room since the morning and it was now evening which was strange for Keith since he would usually be training or something.Lance had just finished acquiring a snack from the kitchen, since he was parched he thought it was a good idea to get some water. He was walking down the hall, when he stopped in front of Keith's room. It might sound weird to say it, but he was genuinely worried about the raven-haired teen. He has been acting different for the past couple of days, and now he was cooped up inside his room.He knocked gently on the door with his knuckles that wasn't holding his glass, "Keith..Buddy...You in there?"Keith tensed up at the voice that he was a bit suprised to hear "w-what do you want?!"he snapped  trying to sound normal but there was obvious pain laced in with his voice. Keith bit at his lip and hopping that lance would just leave him aloneLance was used to that sharp tone in his voice that sounded like he was throwing daggers in him. If Keith was really locking himself up, avoiding contact with everyone. /and/ not training. Then something must've seriously been wrong. "Are you okay? You've been acting different..Can I come in?" He giggled the doorknob gently, just to have figured out that it was locked. Sighing softly, he placed the palm oh his hand against the door. Even if the two bickered and fought, he still cared about him."Keith, you're being more of an ass than usual. Stop being stubborn and just...Let me in." Lance was getting more worried as he heard the tone in Keith's voice. Something about it was...different. Like there was a hint of fear to it. And Keith was known for how brave he was.Lance's eyes widened, and the glass that was in his hand came crashing to the ground. "Y-youre a galra... You've been lying to us?!"lance snapped furiously, Keith tensed up and frantically shook his head "no! No I...I don't know how this happened...!"he cried tears brining at his eyes
Lance didn't know how to respond, he walked into the bathroom and held Keith's face in his hand. Examining him. "Are you hurt, do you need anything?" He asked worriedly Keith scoffed "I'm.. fine."he choked out his words with pain in his voice obviously lying "youre an idiot.."he mumbled glancing down "I'm part galra,the enemy, a monster... And you're trying to help me?"he spat out the word 'galra'as if it was poison, glinching his fist and jerking away from lance hold on his face then stepped a few steps back looking up at the slightly taller boy with pain and fear in his eyes.lance frowned "hey you didn't choose to be like this...You make look like a galra but you are /not/ like them.  /You/ are the red paladin. /You/ are the Keith I know even if you don't look like him...!"he said looking into Keith's now bright yellow eyes. Keith paused "b-but I have galra blood..Lance..."lance stopped Keith before he could say anything else "Shiro has a galra arm, does that make him the evil?. No."Keith rolled his eyes "but that's different..."he said turning away. Lance stopped him "no it isn't...Keith you are you. No matter what you are..."he said reaching out for Keith hand, Keith sighed "I guess you're right..."he said looking up at lance , lance then intertwined their fingers, noticing the cuts and scrapes along Keith's hand and arm probably results of the now cracked mirror. Keith bit at his lip as he felt himself collapse in pain from the transforming, starting to feel light headed. Lance tensed "keith!"he said catching the red paladin before he could hit the floor "Keith what's wrong!?"he asked concerned noticing that the last parts of Keith's pale skin had turn purple. Lance frowned noticing that Keith had now passed out. He kneeled down and cradled Keith in his arms "everything's going to be alright..."he whispered running his hand through Keith's hair gently and kissing the boy in his amrs forehead.
