"Keith, no!" Shiro shouted, pushing himself to run faster, leaving Pidge and Hunk behind. He was so close, he could see the crowd of sentries. He was also close enough to see the flash of electricity and hear Keith's scream from the comlink and from in front of him.
Keith was hit once more with the electrical device, but this time he wasn't strong enough to move to get it off. He screamed and collapsed next to Lance, clinging onto consciousness, hoping that he could be strong enough to protect his teammate, but he couldn't move a muscle. The electricity arcing through him was too much, and he felt his consciousness slipping away. The last thing he heard before darkness took him was Shiro shouting his name.
When Shiro heard Keith scream, he practically threw himself into the crowd of droids, shouting Keith's name. But there was only so much that one man could do against a veritable army. Even after Hunk and Pidge joined the fight, Shiro knew that they wouldn't get there in time to save their teammates.
Just then, the mass of sentries started to thin. The thinning allowed Shiro to see several droids carrying his red and blue teammates. He froze in horror for a second, but then started fighting with a new ferocity. In the end, though, it wasn't enough. He was forced to watch helplessly as the droids carried Lance and Keith into an escape pod and took off.
"No!" Shiro shouted, dispatching several droids in seconds, trying in vain to reach them before they got out of sight. But it was too late. Keith and Lance were gone.
After Pidge, Hunk, and Shiro finally dispatched the last of the droids, they had to return to the castle and tell Allura what had happened. They hoped that she would be able to track the missing paladins.
After they got back to the castle and explained what had happened to Allura, the princess was silent for a minute.
"I don't think that I could track them," she finally spoke. "I could track the lions because they are bound to my life force. I have no such bond with the paladins. I'm sorry, but I do not know how we could get them back."
A/N: Sorry it's short. I wanted to get at least something out for y'all. I wish I could write quicker for you guys, but college is a thing :( But- I'll do my best to get out fairly regular updates!
Nightwinglover05: Don't worry, Keith is my fave so he'll take the brunt of the hurt, especially in defense of Lance :P
Windrider340: I'm updating as fast as I can! Just keep in mind that I'm in college and I won't be able to spend a lot of time writing. I'm glad you're so eager though lol!
Scout017: OMG thank you for your praise! Don't worry, there will be more!
RedArrowisSuperCool: Lol don't worry, more is coming
SerinaAZ: Just warning you, there will be more whump :P
EclipseWolf18: You're welcome! I'm glad you're liking it!
Cady-Marionette: Don't worry, I'm not planning on stopping any time soon
