Keith was fine.
Lance didn't believe it. C'mon, Keith looked liked he never got any sleep. And he looked liked never ate. Now that Lance thought of it, he hadn't seen him eat in a while.
"I'm fine." He insisted everyday.
Lance didn't buy it. Now...

"KEITH!" I shouted, running towards him. He was being lifted up by Shiro.
Shiro was in the kitchen, right? How did he get here so quick.
"What happened? Is he ok?" I asked, shooting the questions quickly as I finally stood next to Shiro.
I studied Keith's unconscious face.
"Oh my god..." I noticed he was bleeding at his leg. I covered my mouth in shock.
"He'll be ok. Stand back." Shiro said in a calm voice. I did as I was told and stood back, allowing him to walk off. Where? Where was he going?
"Uh-s-Shiro?" No response. Suddenly a hand was placed on my shoulder. It was Shiro.
"Yeah Lance?"
"Wha- you- you were just with Keith!" I shouted, clearly confused and shocked. Shiro raised an eyebrow, "I haven't seen Keith all day... Are you ok?" He asked, concerned.
"Sh*t. Who was that then?!" I demanded, turning my attention back to the other Shiro... Who wasn't... There.
"Lance. Are you ok? Is it the vodka?" "No! No. Keith was dying! And you picked him up and told me to stand back. Y-you-" "Lance."
I looked down and shuffled nervously. He bent down into a crouching position so he made eye contact with me.
"Tell me what happened."
"I-I-was outside- and I heard a-a scream so I went t-to go che-check it out. It was Keith. By the t-time I was over to him y-y-you had picked him up. He was bleeding from his leg. Ke-Keith looked liked... He'd been shot..." I was shaking really bad. Shiro furrowed his eyebrows, "where did I go?"
"You... You believe me?"
"Of course I do, Lance. Where did the guy go?"
I pointed shakily in the direction of where the other Shiro went. The black paladin nodded and stood up full height, "I'm going to get the others. Prepare yourself, whoever this guy is is obviously powerful."
I nodded and got some more flexible clothes on.

I was shaking. It wasn't natural. Hunk had tried to comfort me but I didn't allow him. I was choking back sobs. They were urging to leave my throat. Tears swelled in my eyes.
