Race Against Time
Author's note: This is what I have wanted to see for a long time; To see Keith sick (as weird as that sounds)! We have never seen him really hurt (like Lance…) or sick for that matter… Also I'm very sorry if my grammar/spelling is bad. I'm American but I'm not that smart so… yea (I tried really hard…)! Sorry for rambling! On with the fic!
Also swearing…
Chapter One: How It Began
Shit! Keith and Shiro were being chased by this big alien… thing. It looked almost like a flower but with legs… and a scary face. Black goo oozing out its mouth and eyes.
Poison? Keith thought. The stench is horrid! Keith looked back at Shiro and gave him an awkward smirk. Shiro smiled back as sweat dripped off his face. Then he looked back at the thing that was chasing them. It stuck out its tongue and even more goo came out. Keith realized that the creature was going after Shiro.
"Shit! Shiro look out!" Keith cried. But it was to late. Keith knew Shiro would not be able to dodge the tongue that was coming right for him. So Keith ran up to Shiro and pushed him out of the way. As soon as he pushed him away, the tongue grabbed Keith's torso.
Keith let out a small yelp as little, tiny blades on the creature's tongue, cut at his sides, ripping open his skin so the black ooze could get into his system. He screamed even louder as the poison touched his blood, immediately regretting having said that he would go on this mission.
"Keith!" Shiro screamed as he pulled out his bayard. He took a few swings at the creature's - roots? - so it would let go of Keith. The creature dropped Keith to see what Shiro was up to.
My paladin! Red yelled in Keith's mind. As he was falling he said, "R-red?" Blood dripping from his mouth.

Coran and Pidge were looking at the blue lion as they heard a noise. "What was that?" Pidge asked, her eyes widened and she looked around.
"I don't know!" Coran replied startled. "It sounds like its coming from Re- Oh quiznak. Go tell Allura to contact Keith and Shiro!"
"O-ok!" Pidge booked it down the hallway went to find Allura. She turned the corner and ran into Lance.
"Lance! Have you seen Allura?!" Pidge asked, her eyes full of fear.
"Yea. She's in the lounge... why?" He asked puzzled
"Something is wrong with Red!" She told Lance as they were racing down the hall and took a sharp turn. When they reached the lounge, Allura was sitting on the couch, reading what looked like an Altean book.
"Hey guys! Why were you run-"
Pidge cut her off before she could finish. "Contact Keith and Shiro! NOW!"
"O-on it!" Allura scrambled to her feet and ran to the nearest computer. She was pressing all sorts of buttons and then the computer made a buzzing sound.
"Shiro! Shiro are you ther-" She cut off as she felt the castle rumble and something broke.
Red was off to find Keith.
And she was pissed.
Author's note (again…): Sorry it's so short! I will be coming out with the second chapter soon!
