Lance had always thought he wasn't a valuable part of the group. Keith was their leader and local emo weirdo, Pidge was their resident brain, Hunk was their mechanic, Allura was the amazing Altean that's saved them on multiple occasions, Coran was their genius space uncle, Shiro was the leader of the Atlas (which was way cooler that Voltron in his opinion). He was just Lance the goofball. He tried to be the sharpshooter. He tried to be a valuable part of the team. But he just wasn't. He was a failure. That's all he'd ever be.
The team was struggling to fight the latest villain from Sendak's army. They were hit with everything that Sendak had. Voltron was disbanded and the lions weren't responding.
"Progress report!" Keith ordered.
"Still here" Pidge said.
'I'm here but my lion isn't responding" Hunk said desperately.
"I'm okay." Allura said
"I'm he- KEITH LOOKOUT!" Lance yelled as he shoved Keith's lion out of the way being struck by one of the beams. Lance screamed in pain.
"LANCE!" The team screamed as they watched Lance being hit by the beam.
Everyone's lions started working and they destroyed the rest of the galra fleet, grabbing the red lion and retreating back to the castle to get to Lance.
Once they were in the castle everyone bolted to the red lion.
"LANCE!!! LANCE!!!!" Keith yelled trying to pry the lion's mouth open. The others joined in and soon they were running to the cockpit.
"Lance!!!" Keith screamed running to the chair Lance sat in.Keith ran around to the front and saw Lance's body lying limp in the chair.
"No, no, no, no, no, Lance please-" Keith pried Lance's helmet off, cupping his face in his hands.
Lance coughed, blood spurting out of his mouth. His eyes fluttered open.
"You idiot. Why did you do that? Why did you save me?" Keith said tears forming in his eyes.
"B-because I-" Lance began, coughing again.
"You what?" Keith asked, voice breaking.
"I-i l-love you" Lance said with that beautiful smile Keith secretly loved to see.
"W-what?" Keith stammered, closing his eyes to stop the tears from falling.
"I love you-" Lance stopped.
Keith's eyes opened quickly to see that Lance was limp again and his smile was gone.
"L-lance? NO! GO GET ONE OF THE HEALING PODS READY NOW!!!! GO!" Keith ordered.
The team ran to the healing pods as Allura opened a wormhole back to Earth.
"Lance. Lance stay with me. Please. I-i love you too. Please don't leave me. I need you." Keith said as tears fell down his face.
Keith picked up Lance's body and ran to join the others.
They got Lance ready for the pod as they flew back to Earth.
Keith didn't leave the room.
Not even when they reached Earth.
Lance's family came and visited, leaving to get some rest.
Keith never left his side.
It had been days since they reached Earth and Lance was still unresponsive.
The others were trying to prepare Keith for the worst.

FantasyLance had the opportunity to be a valuable part of the team. The only problem? He'd have to sacrifice himself. I do NOT own the characters or Voltron.
