Keith asked me if I was crying I know I did a terrible job of hiding it, but I knew I had to try. I wiped away my tears and faced him. "No, I just, have something in my eye keith!" I didnt mean to yell but I did. I felt more tears well up in my eyes as I vulgarly scolded the red lion. I can't remember half the words I had said to Keith, but I know they weren't nice. I wasn't going to let them see me cry, like for real crying that I end up doing every single night. I ran, I ran away from the team and down to blue's hanger. I hopped inside of her but didn't go anywhere. I just sat in the pilot's seat and cried. Blue started feeding wavelengths into my brain and was highly concerned for me. She let me out down the ramp in her mouth and placed me on her big, metal, paw. It was cold, but somehow gave off a warm, comforting feeling. Blue wrapped her long body around me, just like a real lioness would for her cubs. She let me cry on her paw as she gently nuzzled me with her smooth metal nose. I curled up into a ball and slowly dozed off to sleep.

Keith's point of view
Lance ran away quicker than I'd ever seen him run ever. I was getting really worried and it angered me that none of the other paladins cared. They called him things like Moron or immature and I know lance heard them. When I asked lance if he was crying, he blew up at me and started screaming horrible things. While his voice was infused with anger his face was painted with sadness and pain. He ran away down the hall and no one cared. I left the group in search for lance. I followed him down and realized he was entering blue's hanger. I was afraid he would try to fly out and leave but he just sat in blue and cried. I'd never seen lance legitimately cry before but it was heartbreaking. I watched as blue let him out and placed him on her paw. He started crying again so I left him alone, which was probably not the best for lance I knew he felt alone in the world I just didn't know what to do for him.
Fast forward to later that day

I was worried about lance. It had been two vargas (hours) since lance went to be with blue. I decided to check on him. When I arrived lance was fast asleep on blue's paw. As I approached the sleeping boy, blue sat up and glared at me. I assured her I was checking on him, she nodded in approval and laid her head back down. I jumped up on blue's paw and sat next to lance. He looked so peaceful. I decided I should try to talk to him and definitely apologize for yelling at him. I gently shook his back until he rose up and faced me.
