"Lance! That was amazing!" Hunk exclaimed drawing Lance into a hug.
"Well, I learned from the best," Lance said with a smile.
After the chaos, Lotor's magic faded away. Blue became a lion cub again and Pidge became a full carpet again and changed into her human form.
"Okay, remind me never to go up against an evil sorcerer ever again," Pidge said as she shook off the feeling of being unravelled.
"Agreed," Blue said as she changed into her human form with a shiver.
Keith, Shiro, and Coran were changed back into their outfits from the ceremony. The lions were freed from their cages and Red and Black were changed back into their original sizes. Red ran up to Keith and tackled her cub to the floor. Keith laughed as she began to lick her cub in happiness.
"Okay Red, I'm glad to see you too."
Outside, the palace reappeared back in its original spot and rebuilt to. Lance glanced down at the lamp and rolled his eyes hearing Sendak and Lotor arguing inside.
"Get your beak out of my face!" Lotor snapped
"Oh, shut up, you idiot!" Sendak replied just as angry. "We failed, just like your mother did."
"Don't tell me to shut up!" Lotor snapped back. "And how dare you bring up my mother!" Hunk and Lance shared a look and Hunk grabbed the lamp out of Lance's hands.
"Allow me," Hunk headed to the balcony and grew big with a baseball cap on. He wound his arm up and raised it in the air "A few thousand years in the Cave of Wonders ought to chill them both out," Hunk then placed the lamp in one hand and flicked it out of his hand. The lamp flew all the way to the desert where the cave was.
Lance walked away from the group with a sigh, the battle was won but he still felt guilty about what happened.
'What would Mom say if she saw me now?' Lance thought.
"I know that I was a louse and a loafer
You won't get a fight, I agree
I was a goldbrick, a goof-off, no good
So, how did this happen to me?"
Lance turned to see the group celebrating the fall of Lotor. His eyes landed on Keith who drew his father into a hug with a smile on his face. His heart clenching at the thought of the lies he told Keith.
His mother never liked people who lied, like his father. His father had lied and said he would return and then he never did. Now Lance was just like him.
A liar.
"Proud of your boy
I hope you're proud of your boy
Cause I don't feel any taller or smarter
Or handsome or wise"
Keith turned to where Lance had walked away from the group. Keith turned away from the group and slowly headed over to Lance.
Lance was lost in his own thoughts. He had to set things right and come out clean.
"And now, I know what I have to do
How can I be a prince when it isn't true?
So, I will try to try hard to make you
Proud of Your Boy"
Lance was brought out of his thoughts when he felt someone grab his hand. Lance turned around and saw Keith was the one who grabbed his hand, Lance sighed and gave Keith's hand a soft squeeze.
"Keith," Lance said with a sigh. "I'm sorry I lied about being a Prince," Keith gave a kind smile.
"I don't blame you," Keith said giving his hand a soft squeeze. "I know why you did," Lance bent his head down.
"I guess, this is…goodbye?" Hunk hid behind a pillar. His eyes widened at hearing what Lance had just said. Keith growled and shook his head.
"I hate that stupid law!" Keith said with a scoff. "I-" Keith froze, a blush on his cheeks. "I love you." Hunk suddenly appeared behind Lance and startled the couple.
"Lance," Hunk said placing a hand on Lance's shoulder. "You still have one last wish to use, say the words and I can turn you into a Prince," Lance turned to Hunk and shook his head.
"But, what about you?" Lance asked. "You're freedom?" Hunk smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
"You're more important," Hunk said. "Besides, this is true love," Hunk stepped beside Keith and held an arm around his shoulders. "This only one happens once in a lifetime, you're not going to find another like him," Keith gave a kind smile to Hunk who slid over to Lance. "And believe me, I've looked," Lance sighed and grabbed Keith's hands.
"I do love you Keith," Lance said with a frown. "But I don't want to keep pretending to be someone I'm not, that's not me," Keith nodded with a soft sigh.
"I understand," Keith said with a sad smile. Pidge, Shiro, Coran, and the lions watched sadly from a distance. They knew of the love the two shared, one that can be hard to find.
True Love.
Lance turned to Hunk.
"Hunk, I wish for your freedom," Hunk cracked his fingers with a smile.
"Alright! One Prince coming up!" Hunk froze as Lance held up the lamp.
"Wait. What?"
"Hunk, you're free!"
The lamp lifted into the air and golden smoke appeared out of the lamp. The smoke became small golden fireworks and everyone watched with wide eyes as the shackles on Hunk's wrists disappeared. The lamp flickered a few times before finally falling on the ground. Hunk bent over and picked it up, staring at it for a few moments.
"I-" Hunk turned to Lance with wide eyes. "I'm free?"
"You are," Lance said with a smile.
"I'm free!?" Hunk placed the lamp in Lance's hands, Lance gave Hunk a look of confusion. "Uh, quick, wish for something crazy and outrageous!" Lance and Keith shared a look, Keith shrugged not getting where the genie was coming from. "Say "I wish for a Voltron movie." Say it!" Lance gave another confused look before repeating what Hunk said.
"I wish for a Voltron movie?"
"No way! Not for you!" Hunk yelled before laughing hysterically. Hunk suddenly started bouncing up and down, hitting the pillars and the balcony railing, the sound sounding like a pinball machine. "Oh god, does it feel good to be free!" Hunk then shook Blue, Green, Yellow, and Pidge's hands at once with a huge. The four growing smiles on their faces. Hunk then moved on to Keith and Lance and shook their hands as well. Hunk then flew into the air and started filling a suitcase with clothes and random objects.
"I'm going on a road trip, I'm thinking Mexico," Hunk stopped packing and turned to Lance. The boy looked just about ready to cry, Hunk's face softened as Lance gave him a sad smile.
"Hunk, I-" Lance said as Hunk flew down to his friend. "I'm going to miss you."
"Me too, Lance," Hunk drew Lance into a hug and separated with a sniffle. Hunk grabbed onto Lance's shoulders and looked into his eyes "But no matter what anyone says, you're a Prince in my eyes," Shiro decided it was time he stepped in.
"I agree," Shiro said with a nod. "You've certainly proved you have the heart and soul of a Prince," Shiro said with a smile. "If only the law could be changed," Keith turned to his father with a surprised look.
"Dad?" Shiro chuckled and ruffled Keith's hair gently.
"Well, doesn't the King hold the power to change the laws?" Shiro turned to Coran who got the hint and pulled out a scroll and a pen. "Starting today, the Prince shall be allowed to marry anyone he deems worthy," Keith smiled and turned to Lance.
"Him!" Keith ran towards Lance who picked him up around the waist and spun him around. "I choose you, Lance," Lance smiled.
"Then do be the honour of marrying me?" Keith nodded.
"I will!" the two leaned into a kiss but Hunk stepped in and drew everyone in a giant group hug. He was dressed in a Hawaiian shirt with a yellow baseball cap on that spelled 'PALADIN' on his head.
"Okay, this calls for a group hug!" When the hug was over Hunk turned to Yellow. "Are you coming with me?" Yellow looked unsure. She turned to the group who smiled at her, knowing this was her choice to make. "Follow your heart."
"I-uh-I'd like to stay here," Hunk smiled and drew the girl into a hug.
"Best wishes then," Yellow nodded and wiped a tear away. Hunk stepped forwards towards Pidge. "I have a little present for you," Hunk waved his hand and golden dust fell on top of Pidge.
"What was that?" she asked as the dust faded. Hunk smiled.
"I made it so that you can stay human for how long you like without having to change back to a carpet to recharge," Pidge smiled and drew her friend into a hug.
"Thank you Hunk."
"Well, I'll be off then," Hunk said as he flew up to the sky, waving to the couple. "I expect a wedding invitation you two!" Hunk yelled as he disappeared, a golden firework exploding in his place.
In the evening there was a celebration. Shiro announced Keith and Lance's engagement. Fireworks were currently going off as a celebration. Pidge flew the couple up into the sky and the two shared twin smiles. There were no more danger, nor laws to keep them apart.
