The trip to Hunk's room was short but felt long. They were best friends even prior to our adventure; they tended to do sleepovers as well, due to being bunk mates back at the Garrison, they tended to rotate between each others rooms. So there was a 50/50 chance that he would even be in his room.

As luck would have it his light was on, I could hear Pidge swear from down the hall. I deal with her swearing later. I knocked on Hunk's door and it was answered quickly, Hunk looked hopeful but his face fell as he realized who was at his door. I felt like a punch to the gut; his face was so distraught, no smile and hope gone. He let me in though, and he made a motion to the small table and two chairs. As we sat down I could not only see but also feel the defeat coming from Hunk. I need to fix this, he was sunshine not doom and gloom.

"We'll find him Hunk. I promise you, it's top priority."

Hunk gave me a look a knew to well, thanks but you and I both know you can't keep that promise.

"why haven't you gone bed?" I was a little startled by Hunk's question.

"We need sleep, and no one was gonna sleep till they got their emotions out."

"those sounds earlier?"

"Keith destroying his room." Hunk gave a small smile, his anxiety was wearing him out from the looks of it.

"Took Pidge's laptop and threated to keep it for a month." Hunk looked at me like was crazy.

"She wasn't going to bed. It's night three, she needs sleep."

"True that. Lance always had a way to make her sleep. Apparently one of his older sisters was the same way with her projects so he uses the same tactics."

"Any idea what they were?" I couldn't help the hope in my voice, I would take anything so I could be of some help till he was found.

"Nah, he's too tight lipped about it, and Pidge doesn't know how to explain it. All I know is he has me switch her evening space coffee for space tea. I think he might drug it." I could help laughing at this. What made it funnier was the possibility it was true. How was it that the legs of Voltron constantly kept use from going over the edge but never let us. I came her to clam him down not the other way around. Either way it seemed to help.

"We'll bring him home. Even if he's kicking and screaming the whole way." Hunk smiled at the reference, Lance had once refused to leave a alien planet who only had females populating it. Their males on their moon, only to meet once a year. He was there for a entire month before Allura throwing him over her shoulder to get him back. Somehow during that month he got married to the queen, and she willing let him go.

"Took three months to get to stop insisting we call him King Lance."

"Didn't help Coran kept referring to him that way." I made sure to sigh dramatically, like in one of the old animes I use to watch. Hunk was out right laughing, he looked relaxed. But I knew it wouldn't last long.

I hate being right, as soon as he stopped laughing, he's anxiety came back.

"She's gonna kill us, if we don't get him back, never mind that she'll kill us for losing him in the first place." I forgot about that. Lance was actually serious about his relationship queen Jatea and seemed to actually care despite how young the two were. She happened to be a new queen, only a year younger then him.

"We'll find him Hunk. I'm worried about him, and I can't stop thinking about everything that could be wrong happening . However blue won't let anyone hurt him, and red isn't freaking out. Even if Keith is piloting her again, Keith said she still reacts if he seems to be in trouble. He has to remind red that blue will keep him safe." Hunk seemed to calm down a bit but was still riddled with anxiety.

"Allura mentioned once that she had to do that to blue a couple of times."

"and Lance can take care of himself, remember capture the flag."

"I had no idea he knew how to shoot, the entire time I knew him. I thought when we got our bayard it was the first time. But he was years ahead of me. How can he doubt his skill so much, or his value to the team."

"Wait. He thinks what?"

"Yeah, he never say's anything but I recognize the signs when he thinks like that. It got bad at the Garrision, especially when he replaced Keith in the fighter pilot program. Didn't help the teachers were consistently reminded him he wasn't Keith."

"what do you mean Hunk?" Hunk looked a little surprise.

"I guess we never told you. Once Keith was kicked out. Wait you didn't know Keith got kicked out did you?" I guess my face gave him his answer cause he kept going.

"So once he was kicked out Lance got his spot. However all the teachers would ridicule him for not being as good as Keith, called him a cargo pilot. He was Keith replacement and they made sure he knew. Whenever Iverson got mad at us Lance would take the brunt of the verbal assault, always making sure Pidge and I weren't in as much trouble. Iverson used our team as a example of what not to do all the time." He paused for a moment, seemed unsure if he should continue. At least now I know why him and Keith are always competing. Too Lance it's a means to get out of Keith's shadow he was put in, for Keith it was a outlet.

"Does Keith know about this?" Hunk shook his head.

"Lance is a self sacrificing kind of person. He rarely lets anyone in, kinda surprised he let Jatea in. Although I think she understands that side of him better then we could." Hunk quickly shook his head, so he could focus on what he was talking about prior.

"Pidge was hard to reach back then too. It almost became too much for him, my mum's started to worry about him. A lot happened, and I keep telling him to talk to the team about it. It isn't really my place to tell everyone but he keeps refusing." I could only nod at that.

"when we find him Hunk, I'm gonna have a nice long talk to him."

"your space dad is showing." Lance had started the nickname a while back, I caved too easily to it. However there was a child in me though, so I stuck my tongue out at him.

"I'm allowed to worry." Hunk smiled, he was still anxious but it was better then him going off the edge.

"Hunk get some sleep, so we can find him." He nodded at me and encouraged I do the same. I looked back at Hunk in his bed before turning off the light and I couldn't stop the smile on my face. I left his room and made it too my own. I felt better and all the others were sleeping, I just needed to find Lance and everything would be perfect. Otherwise not only will the team fall apart but We'll have the wrath of a wife on our hands.
