Empty

   Shiro's POV
 
  Empty...The castle has felt empty. Lance usually can brighten up the castle easily but he is in a hyper-sleep state. Pidge has been trying to predict when he'll wake up but it's however still none telling. He's alive at least.

   Everyone has grown easily irritable. Pidge doesn't mess around with Hunk. Hunk has been baking endless batches of cookies to clear his head. I've been attempting to keep everyone sane. Allura has been in a weird funk since the incident. Coran is worried about his favorite paladin. And Kieth...Keith has been in the training room trying to get his mind off things.

   I don't blame him, a few days ago Lance was at Death's door. And he witnessed it. I decide to head to my room when I saw a figure standing at the end of the hall "Lance?" I mumbled only hearing overlapping laughter. The figure walked toward me and the silhouette looked even more like him. "Lance what are you doing? You should be" I trailed off, running to him attempting to hug him but feeling an icy sensation as I drooped forward. "L-l-lance?" The giggling only intensified and unexpectedly stopped. 

   Oh no, I ran to the control room looking at Lance's pod checking the tics on Coran's control panel. I looked at the seconds/tics 5...4...3... I jumped to the pod ready to catch him 2...1 The pod opened and he dropped out and I caught him.

   "What happened" He questioned still half out of it  "Don't worry buddy, we'll explain everything at dinner" He looked distant "Ur o-ok "

   "Coran! Allura!" The doors to the control room busted open revealing everyone except Keith. He's probably still training I thought. "Hunk, can you get some food goo for Lance, Pidge, find Keith. Allura and I will take him to the dining room."

   Lance regained his strength halfway there and he sat down. At that moment Pidge came in with Keith behind her and we all sat to talk to Lance. 

   "Lance, what do you remember?" Allura started "Well I remember the task, and jumping in front of Keith," Lance trailed off "yea that's it" I glanced over at Keith starting into space not eating his goo.

   Keith's POV

   It's all my fault if I hadn't let my guard down this would've happened. A voice broke me out of my thoughts "Keith, are you ok?" Hunk whispered to me. "Yea, just thinking" Hunk didn't push me and gazed back over to Lance at the head of the table. "How long was I in the pod this time?" "Only a few days " Coran chirped. Lance let out a soft laugh but I couldn't find help but have a feeling that he was different. I shrugged it off and listened to dinner

   When dinner finished we all headed to our rooms "Night guys." Lance announced with a door shut as I sighed and walked into my room.
