"No... please, no...!" Lance shouts.
Meanwhile, the servants hoot and holler in triumph. Matt hugging Pidge, "We did it, Katie! We did it! We beat the clock!"
Everyone around them starts to grow tired. Pidge notices this, "Matt... look.."
The siblings look at their once friends and fellow servants. Everyone is just an object now. Pidge starts to feel the life drain from her.
"Matt..." her clock like features start to take over, "I can't... speak."
Matt knows its the end and smiles sadly though he knows it's the end, "It's alright, Kaite."
Pidge fights it but can't win, "I can't... Matt... I'm scared."
Matt shushes her, "It's okay, Katie... You know it's time."
Pidge fights enough to say, "I love you, Matthew."
She turns into a normal mantle clock, leaving Matt.
"I love you too, Kaite.."
Matt twists and turns into a normal candelabra, his fire slowly going out.

"Please, don't leave me. Come back!" Lance pleas, sobbing, his tears dripping down onto Keith's shirt, "Please..."
He leans down and moves Keith's hair aside, planting a soft kiss on his forehead. He pulls away, tears running down his cheeks, "I love you."
Lance sits back, sobbing.
Suddenly a bright white-yellow light emits from Keith's chest, engulfing him and lifting him up. Lance jumps to his feet and backs up slightly in fear. Keith's beastly state seems to disappear as he's set down by the bright light. Keith, now alive, looks down at himself and gasps, seeing now baggy clothes on him, his milky white skin back. He genuinely smiles and turns, spotting Lance, hands clasped over his mouth in awe.
"Lance..." Keith breathes.
The two walk toward each other. In silent disbelief. Lance studies Keith's features still unsure... He runs a hand through Keith's thick dark hair, still disbelief. Their eyes meet and Lance looks at those same piercing purple eyes with pupils lined in yellow.
"How do I know you're the real Keith?" Lance asks.
Keith deadpans, "Are you serious? You just watched my corpse raise from the dead and turn-"
"Okay, okay..." Lance smiles, "You're the real deal."
Keith rolls his eyes and kisses Lance.
The spell seems to reverse itself almost instantly. The crumbling castle seems to magically rebuild itself. The magic spills over the servants as they turn back into humans. The sky seems to turn from cold grey to a bright blue, clouds scattered here and there.
"Matt!" Pidge shouts, latching onto to her older brother.
"Pidge, we really beat the clock!" Matt almost squeals.
The siblings hug each other tightly, happy to just be together, alive, and humans. Hunk goes sliding down on the tea tray and comes to screeching halt. He looks down, seeing he's a human again and leaps up hollering, "We beat the clock!"
The village folk regains their memory of their prince and his servants. They all seem to flood back to the castle to find their prince and lost loved ones.
"Katie?! Matthew?!" A distressed female voice shouts.
The siblings look at each other and separate, now looking for their parents. Hunk seems to be wandering through the crowd trying to find his family.
"Katie!" The woman shouts upon seeing her daughter.
"Mom!" Pidge and Matt shout.
They share a joyful tear-filled embrace before the sibling's mother pulls away to lecture them, "I told you to never take those stupid jobs! You should've listened!"
The pair stand in silence letting their mother lecture them. Hunk, on the other hand, finds his siblings in the crowd.
With all the families reunited, Lance and Keith emerge from the castle, hand in hand, smiling. A collective gasp is heard followed by servants saying things along, "Your majesty," "The master is alive!"
Soon the pair is engulfed in a crowd of servants and village folk. Allura curtsies to Lance, "You saved our lives, monsieur."
"And for that, we are forever grateful!" Shiro chimes in.
"It was nothing..." Lance says bashfully.
"So when are you getting married?" Coran asks.
"CORAN!"
~~~~~
"Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong."
"Winter turns to spring
Famine turns to feast
Nature points the way
Nothing left to say
Beauty and the Beast.."
Lance and Keith dance together, many other pairs of people and couples surround them.
"How would you feel about growing a beard?" Lance playfully asks
Keith lets out a playful growl while smiling, "I'll think about it."
"How about some cat ears?"
"Lance!"
"Okay, okay..! I'm just testing the water. I'm new at this whole husband thing."
"And you think I'm not?"
"Wait, that's not what I was saying."
"Hey, I was just testing the water! Like you said, I'm new at this whole husband thing!"
"Certain as the sun
Rising in the East
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme"
"Beauty and the Beast"
