Lance snored soundly as he mumbled to himself. The dark room was still. Lights painting a soft blue on the paladin's face. All was peaceful, until Lance stirred in his sleep. His happy dream darkened into a night mare as he heard the cries of Keith calling out to him.
"L-lance, w-where are you? I'm scared!" Keith pleaded, as he was separated by a wall of bars. Lance ran to Keith's side.
"It's okay buddy! I'm here. Don't be afraid." Lance replied, grabbing Keith's hand, "I'm right here."
"L-Lance... "Keith cired into Lance's hand, "I miss you so much. I miss all of you."
"I know. I miss you too. It's okay... I'm here...  I'm here... Are you okay? What's going on? Where are you?"
Keith stiffled a sob, "I think I'm alright. I don't know w-what they d-did to me. I... I... "
" Take a deep breath Keith. You need to tell me. So we can save you!"
Keith nodded slowly, tears falling from his cheeks. Lance took a deep breath. He was going to burst seeing Keith cry any longer. His hand traveled to Keith's cheeks, slowly wiping the tears off. Keith glanced at Lance, and Lance returned a soft smile.
"We'll save you. I promise."
"Really?"
"Yes Keith. I mean it."
Keith smiled and placed his forehead against the cold metal bars. Lance did the same, using his free hand to comfort Keith.
"Zarkon has me... I ... Don't know .. if.. I can.. see you much longer lance. I'm not myself anymore. I lost everything."
"Keep fighting Keith. I believe in you."
"I don't. But I believe in you Lance."
Lance gave Keith a confused look.
"Why not?"
"I lost Lance. I lost against Zarkon. "
"No Keith, you haven't you're still here!"
"Maybe physically... " Keith said. His hand made his way to Lance's forehead and gave it a soft poke, "but not here.."
Lance was really confused. Keith motioned Lance to come closer. Lance gave a worry some look and bend closer. Keith rose up to Lance's level and whispered to his ear. This left Lance in awe.
"Keith I-"
"Bye Lance. Promise you'll come to me soon?"
"Keith!"
Lance frantically tried to pull Keith into a hug, only to vanish in thin air. There Lance sat in shadows as he looked at his hands as dust slowly flew away.
"Keith. Don't worry I'm coming to save you. "
Lance buried his head into his palms.
"I'll save you..."

When morning came, Lance hurried to the kitchen.
"GUYS!" Lance yelled through the door, "I know where Keith is at!"
Shiro gave Lance a look.
"How?"
"I had a vision! Keith was locked away. He was behind bars andhe was crying!"
Allura looked up from her cup of Altean coffee, "if you had a vision with Keith, that mean he was thinking about you. And very hard. If that's the case..."
"Then he needs our help!" Hunk exclaimed, almost making Shiro drop his cup.
"Yes Hunk. He is probably in deep trouble."
"Then we need to get to save him." Shiro said as he put down his coffee hard enough that it almost spilled.
"I agree with Shiro! Let's go!"
"Wait Lance! We need a plan first!"
"Yeah pidge is right. Where is Keith now anyway?" Hunk said, biting into his green pancake.
"He's with Zarkon! "
"Ah great. Right at the enemy's strong hold." Hunk mumbled, face still filled with food.
"We have save him!"
"Whoa Lance, calm down! You're acting like Keith now!"
Lance froze. He was acting like that mullet head. He stared at his feet.
"We have to save him.. he's scared... And if you guys were out in that situation, you would be scared too."
Allura sighed and placed her cup down. She paused for a moment.
"Paladins! Get to your lions. We're going to save Keith!"
Lance broke into a smile.
"Yeah!"
"Let's go save Keith!" Hunk said, joinf Lance with his dance. Shiro smiled, "here we come Keith."

~ outside of the castle~
Lance sat quietly in his lion.
"Blue... I have this feeling that something is wrong with Keith. I .. I can't figure it out."
Blue stirred in response.
Lance sighed.
"Keith... I can't believe you said that to me... I wish I could tell you back.." Lance blushed but push Blue's handles and urged forward.
