"No,no,no," I begged. "Keith please!"

"It's okay." he said softly. "I've got a plan."he whispered.

I stared downward at the floor frozen with red eyes. I heard his soft footsteps slowly fade away but I didn't look up.

I think Allura saw my unsteadiness and slowly picked the baby from my arms. Until then did I realize I was violently shaking.

------------------------------------

Keith's POV:

A small pod landed in front of me. Two Galra soldiers and Lotor stepped out.

"The baby?" he asked coldly.

"You think I trust you around my child?" I spit.

He gave me a deadly look then straightened himself up,clearing his throat.

"Come with me,Keith." He said and then walked back inside.

I slowly walked up the metal ramp,glowing with purple lights on the sides.

As I walked past the two soldiers, Lotor calmly said,"Now."

I was tackled from behind and shoved to the floor violently. I felt a sharp pain in my rib and yelled out in pain. 

I then felt cuffs enclose over my wrists.

-----------------------------------------

We heard Keith yell then his comm was just static.

"Keith? Keith!" yelled Lance but there was no answer.

"I knew it! It was a trap! We need to go after them now! said Allura.

"What can we do? Last time we fought, our lions' power drained." said Hunk.

"Coran, get to the castle. Everyone else, get to your lions." said Allura.

The baby snored in Allura's arms. "I'll stay here." she said.

"Allura-" I began but then Iverson cleared his throat.

"I could." he said. "After all, I have many grandchildren myself." he gave a small chuckle.

"Oh,uh-" I said.

"No worries. You can have your trust in me. She needs a father after all. Go on." he said. He's never really been this nice before.

"Thank you. Really, thank you." I said and head off to gear up.

--------------------------------

"Why are you doing this." I said hoarsely.

"Oh,you'll see so enough,Keith." said Lotor.

Then there was an instant of a sharp pain in my head.

And then everything went black.
