I raise a hallelujah, in the presence of my enemies.

Everyone shouted at each other. Our last mission didn't turn out like how we thought it would. We were supposed to figure out some major details about the Galras plans.

Instead, we got caught and captured. I almost died, again. Allura brought me back. She scolded me for giving up so easily.

"Shiro you could hav-" I tuned out there bickering. I turned to the only thing keep me sane these days, that is praying.

Lord, if you hear me, please let peace come with in our team. I pray, God, that you let us get a long fine, like the beginning.

I prayed silently and held my hands on my head. The bickering grew quiet with in a few minutes.

"Lance what are you doing?" Pidge asked boldly.

"I am praying." I told her. I opened my eyes and looked up at them. They all stared, disgusted with me, like I was a monster.

"God isnt real Lance!" Shiro screamed.

"You are delusional!" Pidge said.

"He hates gay people!" Keith yelled.

"We cant be friends anymore!" Hunk screeched.

They through insults at me left and right. I sat there and took it. It broke me inside to hear these words about myself and God. Forgive them Lord for they do not know of your worth.

"I am sorry guys," I began to tell them nicely, "this is just what I believe, please respect that."

"How can I do that when you are shoving your Religion down my throat!" Screamed Pidge. How am I doing that?

I looked down, my insecurities taking over once again. "When ever you feel unloved, unimportant or insecure remember to whom you belong Ephesians 2:19-22." I whispered to myself, not looking up at them.

"What did the Jesus freak say this time?!" Yelled Keith.

"He is my Lord, I am in no way saying you can't do something cause of my Religion." I told them respectfully yet proud. God is my only confidence, he keeps me going.

You got this. Do not let their ignorance control you. Prove to them that Christians are people too.

"What ever Lance you suck!" Pidge yelled for the 5th time.

I breathed in and out, trying not to yell or be mad. I told them calmly I wanted to be alone and left to my room. I got dressed into my blue pjs and layed on my bed.

I shut my eyes, "Lord please forgive them. Bless them with the truth of your existence, I know you will make a way." I prayed in whispers. I quickly fell asleep afterwards.

The alarms blared in my ears like a bird singing loudly. I woke up and got changed into my armor as quickly as possible. I sprinted to my lion and hopped inside.

-----sad ending

I shot the main ship that was depleting cruisers. I think if I take that ship down no more cruisers will come out. Boy was I wrong.

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid!

The Galran soldiers were winning the fight. Our team was losing hope. A cruiser flew straight into me. A loud explosion erupted.

It all went dark for a second. My eyes felt like a pound of bricks. I managed to open them and look around. I blinked away the dust.

Everything was blurred. Blue was drifting away from the team, they didn't seem to care, perusual. My ears rang loud, like a bell. I lifted my head to check all of my surroundings.

A warm feeling spread over my face and stomach. I couldn't feel anything in the those regions.

I lifted my hair to my face. The mask cracked and sharps of glass tore up my face. Blood ran down multiple areas. I pulled my hair back as soon as I touched it there.

I looked down to see my stomach exposed. Blood poured out of the gaping wound. I put my hands over it, I tried my best to stop the bleeding.

Please God. Is this how I die? Are you really there? I guess I will join my Grandma in heaven. Please let me go to heaven. Please Lord?

Darkness took me into the bitter sweet abyss.

------ happy version (just an extension of the sad part)

A steady beep woke me up. I opened my eyes. I feel down to my knees. My eyes wandered the room. People were all around me.

"Lance it was a miracle you made it...." Hunk cried.

"It wasn't me. It was God working through me." I told them. They didnt mock me.

Shiro nodded his head, "I understand, tell me more about this God."
