Betrayal
"Alright Lance. This is it. The final battle. Zarkon has already killed all the others. Now it's just you and me. We're the only ones we can trust," Keith said, staring into Lance's eyes.
"Forever and always, Sharpshooter."
Kosmo teleported in between them, slightly ruining the moment, but they couldn't be mad at their loyal warrior.
Lance, however, looked conflicted. Keith watched his face and realized with shock that Lance had tears in his eyes.
"What's wrong, babe? Are you alright?"
Lance's laugh sounded hollow, and full of pain. He wrapped his arms around Keith, only for Keith to realize that his arms were still moving higher. Suddenly, there was a knife at his throat, and him back was being pressed into Lance's chest.
"Lance? Lance, what are you doing?"
"I'm sorry my love."
Lance brought his knee up to Keith's... sensitive area. Hard.
Keith fell to the ground screaming bloody murder, his voice going up several octaves.
"The job is done, Zarkon. I have him tied up and ready to deliver to you."
Lance tossed his husband over his shoulders in a fireman carry, ignoring the other man's tearful protests.
He put Keith in the back of his space pod, making sure he couldn't escape. Within the hour, they had made it to Zarkon's ship.
"They heard a grating voice over the comms, "Bring him here. The hangar door is open."
Wow. Zarkon really needs a cough drop.
As soon as they made it inside, Lance dragged Keith out of the pod and untied his wrists. Lance put a firm hand on Keith's shoulder to guide him towards the guards, who were lining the outer walls of the room.
That's when Keith started struggling. he threw Lance off of him. Lance's gun had fallen to the ground, so Keith grabbed that and started shooting anyone in his path.
He was a good 45 feet away from the space shuttle. (That's fifteen-ish meters.)
He was only ten feet away when he heard the yell.
Lance's yell. Oh no.
Keith stopped in his tracks to see Lance standing behind him.
His violet eyes widened as he watched Lance shudder. A dark spot of blood pooled on the left side of his chest.
Red. Like those poppies he gave me on our first date. How did he know those are my favorite?
Lance crumpled to the ground, landing awkwardly with his limbs splayed out around him.
Keith rushed to his side, laying Lance's head gently onto his lap.
"Don't look, so betrayed Keith. I know what you're thinking."
Of course you know. You always know.
Keith must have said that aloud, because Lance chuckles weakly.
"I know you, Keith. No amount of yelling and trying will keep me alive. I would apologize for doing this, but I feel no regret. I am fighting for the correct side, just like you should be. The only reason I stayed with Voltron for so long is because my love for you was the only real emotion I had on that damned ship. How do you think Zarkon tracked and killed the other paladins so easily? I've been giving him intel for years."
Keith's face darkened.
Lance had killed Keith's only family, everyone that every cared about him. But the worst part was, Keith still couldn't stop loving Lance.
He looked to his lover's face and felt only fondness.
Still he screamed, "I HATE you! H-How could you do this to them? How c-could you d-do this to ME?"
Keith's voice cracked heavily, as he started to sob into Lance's chest.
"Are you talking about me dying, or me betraying the team? Because between you and me, I think I know which one you're more upset about. I bet if the team were still alive, you'd help me kill them all if it meant staying together."
Keith couldn't say a word, because it was all true.
Lance clearly saw that, because when his eyes closed at last, a smile had settled on his face.
"Farewell my Samurai."
And with that, Lance heaved his final breath.
"Ugh, that was so dramatic."
Lance's head popped up.
"Hey! I think we're pretty good actors, actually."
Kayla Rosa McClain stepped up onto her Papi's stomach. (sorry, I couldn't figure out how to accent it)
Keith scoffed.
"Oh come on. That was really good. I even cried."
"Ya! Trust me, it's really hard to make your Daddy cry. Did you see me slam him in the man parts? Not. A. Tear. Sorry 'bout that by the way."
The McClains had only one daughter, found homeless after the Galra attack years ago.
When the husbands had come across her, she was only 2 years old and still nameless.
(Keith made sure to sue that orphanage after they had left, he understood entirely what it was like to feel unsafe and parentless in a group home.)
"It was so gross and lovey."
Lance raised and eyebrow.
"You keep that attitude up, young lady, and I will not hesitate to kiss your daddy right here in front of you."
Mama McClain had taught Lance well. Kay screeched loudly before covering her eyes.
"Please don't."
Kosmo rushed in to join the fun. He ended up sprawled across the dads, and smothering Kayla's legs.
Keith struggled for a moment before giving up.
"I can beat a druid, multiple enhanced aliens, and a bunch of extremist purple cats, but I am trapped by my own wolf."
"And me! The evil Zarkon! I'm the coolest Zarkon ever! Vrepit Sa!"
"Lance! Look what you've done! Our kid is going over to the dark side!"
"No regrets, my lovely Prince Brooding. No regrets."

“So,” The boy started, “We came here by accident, for starters. We where trying to go back in time in our universe, using a Time Machine. But seeing as how I’m definitely not just back in time, I accidentally switched universes again.”
Again? Kieth was stunned, to say the least, but that only answered a third of his questions for the boy, “who are you?” He eventually asked.
“My name is Andrés . I am the son of Lance McClain and Kieth Kogane.”

THE WEEK IS OVER!!!
I'm finally done! I have had a perpetual headache since yesterday, and I feel slightly like throwing up (but in a relieved tired sobbing happy way, if that's possible).
Which means I have time to write something! Yay!
Okay, I have another thingy of Klance as parents. This was inspired entirely by my band teacher. He told us to "Not let the notes/rhythms catch us off guard like a deer in the headlights, because what happens to deer in headlights?" And everyone immediately went, "They get run over!" But of course I said, "They get smooshed! Like a pancake! Pancake deer!" And the guy 1 seat over from me (my semi-friend, but that's not important) said, "Damn, that was dark," to our other friend and they both proceeded to stare at me like I'm a madwoman. (Haha jokes on them, who ever said I'm not crazy. It would only raise their concern levels if they knew that I'm writing something about this now.)
Ok, sorry. That was longer than I thought it would be. I'll stop talking about my life and let you move on with yours.
Their daughter is a 6 year old kindergartener, and she is genetically related to them and therefore looks like them. (Don't ask me how that works, Blue and purple-eyed female Lance with A Keith-ish personality is unbelievably cute to me.)
Yes, she is part Galra, though that's not really important.
Wow, the intro is probably gonna be longer that the actual writing.
------------------------------
You might think that Lance is the dad that worries constantly over his child, the one who spoils her rotten.
But, nope. Keith, after having been a lonely kid, and having a lack of parental figures in his life, (The only reason he is a functioning human being is thanks to Shiro) HATES the thought of his daughter being lonely or feeling unwanted by anyone. He's felt that way too often over the years.
So when it's Kayla's first day of kindergarten, his protective dad levels go through the roof.
"Alright, my Rose. Remember what I told you. No matter what, do not be a deer in the headlights. Because what happens to deer in headlights?"
As loving as Kay is, she inherited her Daddy's impatience and fiery temper. She can only take to much of her Dads' worrying before it gets tiring.
"They get mushed into pancakes, I know, Daddy. We've gone over this 5 thousand times."
Keith blames Kay's sassiness on Lance.
Speak (Thought?) of the devil, Lance walks into the room at that moment. He starts to back out at the annoyed look on Keith's face.
"Oh. no you don't. Get over here and help me tell our daughter how bad it would be if she turned into a deer pancake!"
Lance rolls his eyes.
"Ugh, Keith. The poor girls brains will ooze out of her eyes if you don't stop. You've been going on about this for ages."
Yep, the sass is definitely all Lance's fault. Kayla giggles at thought of her brain liquifying. (In her mind, it would be electric blue and if it got in her mouth, it would taste like blue raspberry.)
Keith starts to argue, but his husband shoos him out with his shoe.
Do NOT get in the way of a McClain with a shoe in hand.
Once Keith is gone, Lance turns to Kayla.
"Don't worry him, baby. He's just being proud in his own way."
They both hug before Lance finishes packing Kay's lunch.
Before Lance goes to call Keith back into the room, he crouches down to her height.
He holds up a small pink bejeweled bottle.
"But just in case, you know how to use pepper spray. Don't you DARE get kidnapped. Me and your Daddy have already fought a war, all we ask is that you let us stay peacefully retired."
Kayla giggles. "Okay, Papi"
Keith breaks down sobbing when they drive Kayla to her school.
Lance just shakes his head and pats his husband's back. Keith is so going to deny this tomorrow.

OH MY GOODNESS. I was just spellchecked for writing "kindergarden!" Is that seriously not how you spell it?!?!? I've been writing it that way my whole life! Also raspberries! I thought it was Razberries or Rasberries. That is so weird. This is just proof that I would wither away and die without spellcheck.
I have officially decided that the only thing that I can call their child is 'Kayla Rosa McClain.' She's bisexual, though she leans more towards the lesbian side. She calls Lance Papi, and Keith Appa (the Korean version of 'dad') or Daddy. I'm not sure how the last name works, though. In my head, she decides when she's older which last name she likes better or uses both with a hyphen. With Keith, he either hyphenates it or uses McClain.
This song makes me happy:
Go listen to AJR. They'll make you smile.
And this too:
