"Shiro, I'm going in. I can't wait any longer!" Lance called over, gripping tight onto his bayard and heading right into the middle of all the galra guards. 

"Lance, wait!" But Lance was already fighting them all off. Adrenaline was really kicking in for Lance was dodging attacks like a pro and attacking back with no problem at all. Shiro couldn't blame him. They both missed Keith so much. He decided to go in and help. Pidge, Hunk, Allura and even Matt were there, fighting off all the guards. It was getting worse now that Lotor's generals joined the fight. Lance spun around, his bayard turning into a sword so he could fight easier.

"Lance, watch out!" Allura called. Lance turned around and was immediately thrown to the ground. His bayard skidded across the ground.

"Long time no see, Lance." Lance looked up to see Lotor grinning down at him. The tip of his sword inches away from his face.

"Lance!" Shiro and the others came running to him. The whole room grew dark and only Lance, Lotor and Shiro were there. Haggar stood behind Lotor, holding her hand out in front.

"Don't think that your  little friends are going to protect you." Lotor looked down at Lance who was beginning to get back up. He looked over at Haggar who nodded and lifted up her hand higher. Shiro went flying and slammed against a wall. He stayed up there, trying to fight his way out.  Lance growled, gripping his bayard again and holding it out towards Lotor.

"Where's Keith?! What have you done to him?!" Lotor simply chuckled and motioned over to Haggar. She nodded and lifted her hand up again. Shiro's metal arm began to glow and he screamed out in agonizing pain. "What are you doing to him?! Stop that!" Lance lunged forward. He managed to slice through Lotor's armor on the chest, but it didn't hurt him a lot.

"Determined, are we?" Lotor chuckled, feeling the edges of his small wound. "I can't just simply tell you where I have him. Now.." Shiro's screams grew louder causing Lance to begin to tear up. He glared over at Lotor. "You'll leave or I'll have the witch hurt champion so badly, it'll change his life."

"Lance.!" Shiro managed to call out. His face was twisted in pain. "Don't worry about me! Just get K-Keith..!" Tears welled in Lance's eyes. His palms were sweaty, but he kept a good grip on his bayard.

"You won't hurt Keith or anyone ever again!" Lance yelled, charging forward and slicing through Lotor again. This one Lotor wasn't expecting and the sword cut deep into his chest. He stumbled back, hitting the floor with a loud thud. The whole room could be seen again. Lance wiped his face, breathing heavily. Lotor wasn't moving. "I-I..I killed him.." He chuckled. "Shiro! I killed Lotor!" He smiled widely, looking over to where Shiro was. But what he saw wasn't what he was expecting. Everyone was around Shiro. His bleeding head in Allura's lap. His metal arm had been completely torn apart and in pieces all around.

"Lance.." He turned his head a bit to look at Lance. He nodded, bending down and wiping the white strands of hair that got in his bloodied face. "Tell Keith that I still love him." He fell silent and Pidge started to cry. Lance was confused. Shiro loved Keith? He stood up tall now that he was real pissed.

"Don't worry, buddy. I will." Then laughter echoed off the walls. Lance looked over to see Lotor lifting himself up off the floor. Blood now covered his chest plate. He gave the most evilest grin that it made Lance shiver.

"Come at me, paladin of Voltron! Show me your true strength!" His voice boomed. Lance glared over, lifting his sword up.
