"Lotor will be here."

"Keith, Lance. Put these in your ears so we can communicate." Kolivan stated handing the two ear pieces.

"Got it."

People ran around the mansion as they prepared for an attack.

Keith had grabbed his blade and a sword as Lance grabbed a sniper, pistol and a sword.

"He will most likely go after you, Keith."

"Keith." Lance said. "I'm heading to the roof. I'll try to keep an eye on you. Be safe."

"I don't need to be watched like a kid Lance." Keith snapped making Lance's eyes widened. "No- I'm sorry. I just-"

Keith let out a groan of frustration and pulled at his hair.

"No it's okay." Lance said taking a step towards the male. "You're stressed. I get it."

"I'm also worried." Keith mumbled. "I don't know what could happen today."

"We just have to fight. The girls are counting on us." Lance replied placing a hand on Keith's cheek. "We can do it."

Keith sighed as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. A pressure was soon placed on his lips as Lance kissed him.

In that moment, it felt as if everything was okay. Like everything was how it was before. Kora was at school, hanging out with her friends, getting an education. Sophia was running around the house, making Keith smile and laugh.

And Lance. He would be right by Keith's side as they watched Sophia, their daughter, together. Everything was okay.

But that moment ended.

"I'll see you after okay?" Lance said in a gentle tone.

Keith nodded making Lance smile as he walked away.

"Lance!" Keith called out.

He needed to hear it. He wanted to hear it.

"I love you."

Lance grinned. "I love you too."

Keith let a small smile on his face as Lance walked away.

"Lotor will do whatever he can to take you with him Keith. That includes hurting those close to you."

"The attack is starting." Kolivan's voice came through.

"You must stay alert. Do something to drag him away."

Shots were heard everywhere.

Keith took his blade out and ran onto the battle field.

"Any sign of Lotor?" Keith questioned attacking an enemy.

"Nothing yet." Shiro's replied.

"No sign of him." Lance said sniping people.

"You guys." Pidge exclaimed.

"Pidge?" Keith asked. "What's wrong?"

"Krolia is amazing at fighting." Pidge laughed.

Keith rolled his eyes and continued to fight. Whipping people over his shoulder, giving some of them clean cuts.

"They just keep coming." Hunk grunted. "I thought Nixon said there were suppose to be about 30."

From the rooftop, Lance cursed as his sniper ran out of bullets.
