Keith x Reader: Deadly Rival

It was just always a competition between you and Keith. Nothing changed that, except some days you allowed Keith to keep his pride. Much like when the lions were found. You let him brag about the red lion. But your teal lion was much larger and better suited for battle than his.

Shiro couldn't stand it, neither did the rest of the team. Except Lance, he thought he had you on his side until you threw goo in his face.

Now, it was a bonding exercise that was going wrong. The gladiator had unfortunately been set to level 5 without the team knowing. And well, Keith had been standing there, focused as all hell. But you, were watching Pidge's back and keeping Shiro clear. Which lead to a sharp pain being brought to your side. It was a deepish gash but you kept fighting. Lance was cornered and you pushed through and got his back.

Allura was proud, clapping her hands with a bright smile. "Good job paladins. Now we are gonna go up a level."

Hunk was closest to you and thought you were just tired. You looked kinda pale. Patting your back with a grin.

Keith was huffy as usual, he did just get shown up by a kid older than he was by a couple of months. It boiled his blood.

As the next round began, your body pushed twice as hard. A few more slashes from taking blows for Pidge and even Keith as you stumbled. Destroying the last one before collapsing on the floor, breathing heavily. Tired eyes narrowed before wiping sweat from your brow.

Coran just beamed and patted Allura's shoulder. "I think it's time for Lunch." "Agreed" She smiled.

By that time, Pidge had noticed your bleeding gashes and alerted Shiro who had grabbed your shoulder just as you blacked out.
Let's say, everyone panicked. Allura rushing you into a pod, Hunk throwing up once, Pidge blaming everyone because they couldn't protect themselves.

Yet Keith just stood there, watching you in that pod made him queasy and he didn't like it. Why had you taken blows for the team? Why for him?

Lance was chewing on his fingernails while pacing. "Shiro? He pushed himself again."

Shiro just nodded solemly while leaning against the wall. Watching the teal paladin just rest in that pod. "Keith, this rivalry of yours with (m/n) has become unhealthy. He has risked his life again trying to protect you."

"Protect me? When did he ever try?"

Hunk glanced between the feud as he coughed. "He saved your butt plenty back in the garrison. And in the lions? He's taken blows in silent. Saying he's fine. He isn't man. That gladiator just showed how he risks it all for us yet no one really notices."

Pidge huffed and stared down at her hands.
"He's backed me up a lot too. He's cool. Knows his technology. But he just doesn't like opening his feelings up. Heard he had a bad childhood back in the garrison. That's why he has scars so deep in his skin."

Allura reappeared and fidgeted sadly. "Shiro, his readings are off the chart. He might not make it through the night."

Lance nearly chocked on his saliva while blinking. "Might die? How bad is his condition? This is your fault mullet! You pushed him."

"This isn't my fault! He's the idiot who tried to better me in everything!"

A siren alerted them of something different, the teal lion...it was moving! Like it was in pain and it kept going until it's mouth opened.

Then the pod room filled with alarms as you fell out. Eyes droopily opening as you pushed your body up. Walking from the room as your lion called for you. Bolting towards it after you grabbed your clothes. The team had went to check the pod room, you were gone.

Reaching your lion, you rested your hand on its nose. And stepped inside, the mouth closing behind you. Sitting down as you stared at the panel. Leaning back as you closed your eyes. Before your lion shook and roared as it was being dragged with an invisible force. Narrowing your eyes as you checked your surroundings.

"Teal, you okay? What the hell was that?"

'I don't know, but it's dragging us. It might be galra.'

The team had went to check what the noises were. Only to watch in horror as your lion was being dragged into a tractor beam right into a galra ship. Keith made a run for Red but was caught by Shiro who shook his head.

And that's when your lion jerked and roared as you grabbed the controls. Trying to pull back but the pull only got stronger. Shouting in frustration as you grabbed your bayard, it was teal sledgehammer that could morph into a gun.

Pidge was sharing glances between the team before she gasped. "(M/N) is in his lion! That's why it's reacting like that!"

Allura followed what they were looking at. And gasped. "That's galra, paladins get back. We have to wormhole now. We have lost the teal lion."

Lance was frozen, Hunk panicked, Pidge was near a breakdown, Shiro was concerned, and Keith, poor Keith was finally realizing his feelings.

"We can't just leave (m/n) behind! He's apart of this team." Keith intervened finally. Anger clearly shown.

"We have no choice! They could take the other lions! Coran prepare for a wormhole! I'm sorry but the teal paladin is no more..."

Or so they thought....

[[ Haha, enjoy that. ]]
