Lance was falling through a black hole then it looked to be changed into streams of blue and green and red streams of light, later a bright light appeared as a portal opened up he fell landed in a tree and falling and hitting the branches crashes to the ground hard the wind knocked out of him for a minute or 2 and he groaned as he got to a knee stumbling a bit his bearings still disoriented from falling through a black hole.
he took a couple minutes to regain his ability to walk by standing leaning against a tree, then he called out to see if anyone was there.
"Guys, Keith! Pidge!, Hunk!, Coran, Romelle!, Keith's mom!, Allura!" Lance yelled out, hearing no answer he realized he was alone.
miles a head of him dark looking warriors were wandering the woods when they heard yelling, a darker warrior bigger than them with a black sword on his back.
"Lets go" he said grimly the warriors and the head warrior took off to the direction of the yells.
Miles behind Lance a bunch of warriors black in dark gray armor with swords on their right sides heard the yells to.
"Someone is out there, lets move out" a head warrior spoke took off to.
With Lance he was walking unaware of danger a head of him, he heard a snapping sound he turned around to look at the noise
Hello!, anybody there I need help" Lance called then something flew through the air and he felt a searing pain as he felt a sharp object sink into his lower stomach at an angle going through his unarmored suit which was a surprise since the Paladin's jumpsuit was thick material but light, he stumbled to the ground looked and saw an arrow had pierced him, then he felt a blow to his chest knocking him back from the impact, he grunted in pain as it aggravated the arrow puncture in his lower stomach.
He looked and saw 3 dark warriors storm through the bushes
"unwise to give your position away" one sneered and charged, Lance new he had no option left he had to fight to survive, he stood activating his shield blocking a attack and ducked another moved out of the way of a slash of a sword.
He held the shield up and blocked a slash, he jabbed the edge of the shield in the warrior gut doubling the guy over and slammed the shield in his helmet knocking him to the ground and the helmet flew off, revealing a snarling humanoid like alien with yellow teeth, Lance looked at this in shock then felt a blow to the back knocking him forward on his stomach the arrow going though the other side of his back at an angle but luckily didn't pierce his insides, he then rolled to the side dodging a sword then used his shield to block a sword, he then felt something stir inside him he felt different his senses grew sharper, more acute and stronger, he then kicked out his foot slamming in the warriors stomach knocking him down he got to his feet and dodged a slash then elbowed the alien in the throat grabbing the arm and putting a arm around his neck and stepped to the side manifesting his bayard into a blaster and fired at the third rapidly his hits going through the soft part of the armor killing it, then ducked under a sword from behind and elbowed the second in the face and headbuuted him in the face knocking him down.
"Come on" Lance said to his bayard as he focused and it glowed and shifted to his third bayard's form an Altean broadsword blocking a slash the aliens arm off and impaled him in the chest and pushed him off.
Then more appeared and charged, once again moving faster than he thought he could he moved forward and blocked a slash with his shield decked the alien in the throat before kicking him away 3 feet and blasted holes in it with his blaster then shifted it back into a broadsword blocking a slash, then side stepping a stab he weaved past another turned sidekicked him away, he blocked a overhead slash crouched low jetted smashed his shield in it's lower stomach sending the alien flipping over his shoulder, then stabbed it in the chest then blocked a slash with his shield then stabbed the alien in the lower stomach stood up shifted his grip and threw it on the ground over his shoulder, then felt a blade slash the back of his leg sending him on his knee but blocked a slash with his sword and shield crossed over her head shifting into a blaster shot the alien in the face taking it's head off, he stood back up and blocked two slashes but felt a slash slice his side at an angle, he knocked the alien with a hit to the face with the but of the sword sending it on the ground he snapped around slashed two in the chest then impaled another in the chest.
Then he grunted as another sword slash his lower stomach at an angle on his other side, he shifted his sword into a blaster and shot around him killing 3 more.
"Enough!" a dark voice said the warriors stopped and their leader walked forward, Lance stood back a step holding his sword in front pointed out as he held his shield in front of himself and exhaling.
"Not bad for a immigrant to take out my highly skill warriors" he hissed, then he drew his sword then attacked Lance swung and meet the slash sparks flew Lance stood back in shock this sword should be cut in half from the ancient broad sword but this creature's sword held firm, but he ducked to avoid getting his head chopped off and put both hands on the hilt and got rid of his sword and swung the creature blocking and deflecting, Lance dodged and deflected a slash and backkicked the leader back and swung as he moved forward the two holding off the other's sword trying to overtake the other, The leader pulled a dagger from the small of his back and slashed it across his stomach diagonally on the right tried to stab him in the upper area under his armor but Lance jumped back and when the dark warrior charged Lance reacting quickly took his helmet off smashed it into the alien's face with a grunt knocking it down.
then he cried in pain as another arrow pierced him between his heart and lungs just missing them from the behind him the bloody tip and half of the shaft of the arrow protruding from his chest, he charged with a cry and raising his sword he blocked and moved like a man possessed, slashed ones leg off kicked him down, turned dodging a stab and elbowed an alien in the temple knocking him down, then more arrows were shot at him but he got his shield out protecting himself and vital arrows but the others grazed his side and top of his shoulder and upper arm on one side, he then with pin point accuracy shot their bows in half, he turned back and jumped back the leaders sword left a slice down the top of his brow half an inch over his eyelid and inch and a half down the upper part of his cheek on his rightside, he blocked another then he felt himself loosing ground loosing energy from the pain and blood leaking from his wounds and the blood from his eye cut got in blinding him in one eye, he jumped back to the side avoiding a slash from the leader's dagger but not soon enough as another cut horizontal across from mid cheek to jawline on his left opened up nicking the side of his upper neck near under his ear.
Lance got his sword knocked out from his hand and he fell on his butt but as a stab from the dagger came he held it by the wrist the warrior taking Lance on his back the rest of the arrow in his chest was pushed the rest of the way through the puncture and the lower was pushed back through to the front making hims grimace in pain.
he held the warriors sword with his armed forearm but the metal slowly digging through the armor then warrior pushed harder Lance grimaced as the blade got through and cut his forearm horizontal.
"Welcome to Vormir, but don't take your death too hard, you did your best" The warrior sneered but then warriors in dark gray armor erupted from the woods behind them and ran towards the attackers drawing similar swords and fought and killed the rest but the lead alien gritted his teeth glaring at Lance.
"We will meet again, or maybe not" he said before throwing a smoke pellet and vanishing Lance's started to get heavy as his adrenaline wore off he got on a tried to get up but was too weak but as he fell strong gentle hands caught him, he tensed up and struggled weakly.
"easy we won't hurt you" the creature said, they looked to have humanoid features like the aliens but no light green skin, but tan skin and pointy ears delirious with pain and bleeding and one eye blurry with blood.
"Coran, Romelle, Allura is that you, I'm sorry for not being strong enough" Lance spoke before his eyes closed.
