Chapter 9

Lance pov
~Flashback~

We soon near the ship, carefully exiting our lions and gliding towards each other to form a plan.  We grab each others hands, gathering in a circle.
“ How are we going to do this, Shiro? We can’t just barge in there and scream,’ hello! Give us back keith!’’ I exclaimed waving my arms.

“ We know that lance, i say that we split up.” Shiro looked at pidge and hunk, “ Hunk, Pidge, you will head to the control room. Distract and disengage the cameras so that they can't see us coming. Lance, your coming with me to save Keith, and please, follow my lead. Watch behind me so we can see if anyone will be coming.”

I looked up so see Pidge nodding, and taking hunks hand to head to the ship. They slowly arrive, giving a thumbs up signal to me and Shiro. We head to the top of the ship and cut a hole in it and slowly land.

Surprisingly, there was no guards in the ship, it slightly made me nervous. The ship had the same purple tint to it, but since it was so silent, it sent a shiver to my spine. I looked over to Shiro, knowing he sees that i'm nervous. He smiled at me reassuringly, and put his arm on my back and patted it. It was nice knowing that Shiro was completely calm in this situation. If it was anyone else, they would have ran around like a chicken without a head, so terrified to be on a galra ship.  We pass through halls, each one looking the same as another. The ship is like a maze, engulfing the people inside.

“Hey guys, sorry we’re late to the party.” We hear Pidge through the communicator in our helmets.” I’ll tell you guys this, the cell that i'm assuming is Keith is empty. But be careful, Lotor is somewhere on this ship. Hunk will be sending the cell number to you guys shortly. Good luck, And please find Keith.”

Hearing Pidge sound so sad, I know me and Shiro needed to hurry up. We sat there for a while, waiting for the location to be sent to us. We hear a silent beep, and we see the layout of the ship, and Keith’s Location. We thank pidge, and at that moment, me and Shiro hear a piercing,Agonizing scream erupt through the halls. Shiro looks at me, both knowing that was Keith’s voice. The screams continue, seeming to never stop. I feel myself getting angrier and angrier at Lotor. I stand up, grabbing my bayard, and run through the halls. I feel myself get grabbed by someone, turning around, i see Shiro with a serious expression on his face.

“Lance, calm down. This is not how we do things. Lotor is doing this on purpose, to see how we’ll react to him. We need to stay calm, so if we see him, he will attack us first, giving us the advantage.” shiro says, slowly letting go of my armour, and grabbing my shoulders.

I take a slow breath,  Inhaling air in my lungs, feeling a bit more calm. I smile at Shiro, once again thanking him mentally for helping me. We continue forward, slowly but softly.

A small chuckle erupted from the halls, along with a soft scraping noise coming from the direction of Keith's cell. “ How nice of you to finally show up, paladins. I sure do hope you liked the video I saved for your enjoyment. It was quite a lovely sight, wasn't it?” Lotor soon pops up around the corner.

I glare at lotor, anger evident in my face. “ What did you do to keith!” I exclaim pointing at him. I know what he was trying to do, and I wasn't going to fall for it.

Lotor smiles, and looks at Shiro,” I just made him what he is, A slave to the galra; a monster to the universe. Training him to withstand pain was very enjoyable, I must say.”

Shiro looks at Lotor, activating his arm,” If your looking for a fight, you can fight me, i will not stop until we have keith.” Shiro starts to run to him, Lotor grinning and making a small ’tsk’ noise and heads to Shiro, both swords clashing into each other.

I look at both of them, then run to the direction of Keith’s cell. While running, the lights turn to red flashing lights, showing that we are inside the ship. ‘ Keith.. Please, please, be ok. I'm coming.’ i thought as i take another left.

I soon came to a stop, seeing two guards standing outside of his cell. Quickle, i shoot them, knocking them out. I look at the iron door.  The door had many intricate engravings on it, so i touch it. I grasp my had now knowing it was a spell.

On the other side, i hear a choking cry, a sobbing, broken cry of help. My heart broke hearing Keith like this. I filled with rage, baking away from the door. Taking a breath, i run towards the door, smashing it. I grunt with a soft hint of pain hit my shoulder. Ignoring it, i try again , and again to hit the door, each time cracking and breaking each time. I fill up on agner each time hearing him scream, and cry.
Knowing if i don't hurry up, we can lose him from our grasp. Shiro can't hold up for long, so i back up one last time, and ram into the door as hard as i can.


The door finally breaks down, my shoulder now bruised and bleeding. I quickly run inside of the room, sirens blaring around me, as the ship is filled with crimson red lighting. I look desperately around the room, soon fixing my eyes on the boy in front of me, i gasp in shock.

There sat Keith, chained to the table in the video, a knife dug into is upper calf, screaming and crying.” KEITH!!” I run up to him Quickly unchaining him.

I lightly touch him, and he Screams out in pain.” Keith, its ok, im not going to hurt you. I'm here to help you get out of here, ok?” He seemed to quiet down, still choking on his sons, but letting me unchain him

I soon unchain the locks, lighty lifting him up. His eyes then shot open, letting out a piercing scream, grabbing his neck. I look at him, trying to think of what to do to stop  him from hurting, and in my mind i just thought of one thing, and i planned on doing it.

I lift him up, enveloping him in a hug, brushing his hair slightly, singing a soft tune to him. He quieted down, still a slight whimper leaving his mouth. I look at him reassuringly,” we’ve got you Keith, your ok now. So rest, and you'll feel better when you wake up.” i say lifting up, carrying him out of the room.

“T-thank you…”

I look at keith, seeing him close his eyes. Un-Intentionally, he leans into my armour, trying to find any heat, since he little to no clothes on him that weren't shredded up into pieces. As i head to  the ending of the ship i hear him mutter quitely,

” Blue..”
