"Lance, why are we even fighting? I'm not even in the mood!" Keith hollered across the training room. "I'm fighting because it's a training room!" Lance followed back angrily.

Shortly after the bickering increases and insults were thrown across to each other intensifies. "At least you're needed you, stupid idiot!" Lance yelled pinning Keith to the wall.

"Every step I do if I'm not loud and annoying no one will ever notice me or acknowledged me" Lance's voice lowered with each word he spoke. But all Keith felt was anger to acknowledge Lance "Of course! Who wants to talk to a stupid Cuban boy who does nothing but FLIRTS all day and doesn't contribute to the team? HUH!" Keith brushed lance and walked off. "And every word I mean. I will never want to take it back" as he exits the door.

Lance can feel the lump filling inside his through, but it was a fail attempt. 'not now, not ever' as Lance wipe his tears to continue practicing. Losing all motivation Lance got shot by a robot directly hitting his Adam apple.

--------------------------------

"Coran, have you seen Lance?" Shiro asked the gorgeous man as he was repairing the engine. "Lance? why yes indeed. Lance is in the healing pod with an injury he got from the training room. He didn't tell you?"

---------------------------------

"I don't understand, I thought it was a physical injury? It should never take this long" Pidge ask Coran as he started to check the monitors. "odd the healing is done, but it claims that Lance is still hurt. I wonder?" Coran read the screen confused at the outcome. "If he's not coming out of the pod anytime soon can cause a danger to us all" Allura stated reading the screen with Coran. "If we were to be attacked by the Galra empire we'll be a disadvantage."

"If it comes to the last resort, Allura we might need you or Coran to fly the Blue Lion," Keith spoke tapping her shoulder. "Hey! We are not replacing Lance. That would be cruel" Pidge crossing her arm. "Yeah! we just can't do that" Hunk siding with Pidge. "But there is a possibility that he might not want to come out. The injury is healed but why is he trapped inside the healing pod?" Keith lashed at Hunk, but Hunk was not budging.

--------------------------

The chances to stop the Galran Empire skyrockets without Lance. "crap, sorry guys but I took full damage from the beam. Can you ready the pod for me" Hunk laughs as he walks out of the hanger. "Come to think about it when was the last time anyone one of us was injured?"

-------------------------

"I don't need another pod to heal me! I want Lance out of that pod!" Hunk ask Allura and Coran desperately. "The healing pod is something that heals all injury. Physical, mentally, and emotionally it will try its best to remove the virus in the body if it can. In this case, the pod believes it can heal the emotional injury that is keeping Lance stuck in this healing pod for three weeks" Coran began to explain the history of the healing pod, twirling his mustache.

-----------------------------

"Let's trace back what he has done to Lance to be emotionally hurt. Maybe we can help speed the process if the truth is known" Shiro began as everyone circled up next to Lance's pod including the mice. "starting with me then clockwise got it" "Yes/ok/got it"

There was a pause of silence before Shiro sighed in remorse, "I downgraded Lance on multiple occasions, its just I lose my composure with him. He keeps missing training, I have threatened multiple times that if he doesn't keep his act together he the blue lion won't respond to him anymore" as the room filled with silence. "He looked void of any emotion and apologized, then the next morning acted as if nothing ever happened"

"I sometimes like to push and shove Lance around," Pidge admitted in shame. "One time I took it way to far and made him cry, but instead of apologizing I bullied Lance even more...since then he hasn't even looked my way" Pidge started to sniffle, "I bet its all my fault that he's in the healing pod not wanting t come out"

"That's not true, I am supposed to be here when anyone is in trouble, I mean Lance gave me the nickname Hunk because of that!" Hunk began angrily at himself. "But I told him repeatedly, that I was too busy to talk right now...pushing him away" Hunk was so disappointed at his actions.

"Lance would often flirt with me and I told him repeatedly to stop. One day I got so angry that I lashed my insecurities about myself to him." Allura began, "but he hugged me but I refused it and slapped him. The whole next week he didn't talk to me and I fear he thought it would upset me." Allura curled into a ball regretting her decision.

"Guys it's my fault" Keith began as confusion rose in the air. "It's my fault that he's in the healing pod. I said something out of pure anger, Lance's spoke some of his insecurities to me and I backlashed him" tears came streaming down his face. "And I told him I meant every word as I lashed him"

Coran who sat quietly through this began to bowl out his eyes. what have they done to this lonely boy who felt nothing but discomfort and hatred from every member in Voltron.
