Lance awoke to the sounds of screams. He shot out of bed and ran down the steps and towards the door. He was about to open the door when he felt someone push him down. He and whoever it was feel to the ground just in time. The house was then filled with arrows. Lance's eyes widened at the sight. This reminded him of that night. "Lance are you alright?", Keith asked as he held to boy close to his body. Lance could only nod. Flash backs coming back to his mind of the other village after that night. So many bodies... "W-were is you papa?", Lance asked. "He saw them coming towards the village so he went outside... I don't know were he is now", Keith replied. Lance nodded. They then heard some people screaming. Lance flinched at the sound. All that came to mind was him and what he did... Lance then freed himself from Keith's grasp and peaked through a small window. His eyes went wide at the sight. All the villagers were gathered in the middle of the houses. Many were crying as the soldiers held them at sword point. Lance looked and saw Allura, Pidge, Hunk, and the man named Coran being pushed to the ground. Lance then spotted Keith's papa. He had a dark circle on his left eye which probably meant that he was punched... hard. "I see your papa", Lance whispered. "Were?", Keith asked. "Sitting with everyone else", Lance responded. Lance then ducked quickly as an arrow shot through the small window. They then heard loud footsteps coming towards the house. Keith was about to reach for his knife when the door was suddenly burst open. "GET THEM", the man yelled. Keith was then picked up off the ground and so was Lance. Keith put up more of a fight. Lance was silent. They were soon thrown in with the rest of the people. Then a man walked up onto the small fountain that the town had. "I am Prince Lotor", the man spoke. His voice was calm, but it was clear he had evil intent. The prince then waved at someone behind him. Soon an old women dressed in a cloak stood next to the prince on the fountain. "This is Haggar, she will make sure you all suffer", Lotor said. Lance then got a bad feeling. He sensed strong power coming from this women. "Haggar, I leave them up to you", Lotor said. "Right away sire", Haggar replied. The prince then walked towards a group of soldiers who stood still. Lance stared at the women, wondering what she would do to them. Lance then heard Keith yelling, followed by everyone else. 

Keith's head felt like it was going to explode. He felt so much pain. It felt like being burned alive. "Keith!!", Lance gasped. He tried to hug Keith but when he touched him Keith started to scream more. Lance looked up at the witch to see her smiling. Her eyes then landed on Lance. Her smile vanished. "WHY ARE YOU NOT IN PAIN!!???!", Haggar screamed as she pointed at Lance. Lance glared at her. He had had enough. Lance raised his hand towards Haggar, his eyes now shining pure white. He then snapped his hands. Before Haggar could do anything water came from the fountain and grabbed her by her cloak. She screamed while the soldiers and the prince watched in horror. Lance held her in the air, staring at her with his glowing eyes. "Let them go", Lance said as he pointed at the townspeople. "Never!", Haggar spat at Lance. Lance clicked his tongue. He then raised his hand and brought it down. Haggar screamed before there was a loud crack heard over the screaming. The screaming stopped. Everyone just laid there on the ground but it was clear that they were still breathing. Haggar laid on the ground, dead. Smashed to bits by the force of her being thrown into the ground. "M-MONSTER!", Prince Lotor screamed as he pointed at Lance. The prince then looked at his soldiers. Lance then knew what was about to happen. The soldiers lifter there bows, all of them aimed at the group that was stuck in a circle. Lance looked at them. His eyes started to shine brighter then before. He raised his hand and let the water take care of it.

Keith woke up. The pain he felt before was now gone. He looked around to find that he was not in the village anymore. "LANCE!", Keith yelled. "Yes Keith?", Lance asked as he then appeared before Keith. Keith looked around. It seemed they were on rock in the ocean. "Were are we?", Keith asked. Lance sighed. "I brought you here to say goodbye...", Lance said, looking at his hands. "What do you mean?", Keith asked. "I managed to get Prince Lotor away, but I did something to make sure that anyone with ill intent would never get back into the village", Lance said. His voice sounded sad. "What did you do?", Keith asked. He then put his hands on Lance's shoulders. "I made a small dome like structure made of water around the village. It is invisible to the naked eye and it won't let anyone through who is thinking about hurting anyone in the village", Lance said. Lance then placed his hand on Keith's hand which was still placed on his shoulder. Keith stayed silent which Lance then continued. "I used all my power. I can't stay here anymore... I'm so sorry Keith", Lance whispered. Keith felt tears perk at his eyes. He hasn't cried in a long time. Lance could not cry, so instead it started to rain on the rock they were on. "Why do you have to go?...", Keith asked. His voice was braking. Lance stared at him. Lance just shook his head. He then looked at Keith and smiled. Lance then leaned in and kissed Keith. It was a small kiss but in those split seconds it made them both happy. When Lance pulled away he smiled at Keith one more time. "I love you Keith!", Lance exclaimed. 

Keith opened his eyes again to find himself in his bed. He looked around to find his papa sitting on a chair. Soon they were both hugging. Father and son reunited. "Wheres Lance?", Keith asked one they let go of each other. Keith's papa looked at the ground. "He left...". The words hit Keith hard. Soon tears started to come. His papa hugged him and tried to comfort him but all Keith could think was

I am alone again...
