Chapter 63- Night time troubles

A/N: Keith has a nightmare and when he wakes up things happen, he attacks others, has a panic attack and his Galra features kick in.
*Contains self harm*


The air on the planet was thick and Keith's chest was tight with anxiety and fear. He glanced around to see Hunk fighting alongside Lance but then he heard the sound of one of the Galran soldier's gun go off. His eyes widen as he saw Pidge collapse to the hard planet's ground.

"PIDGE!!!"

Another shot was fire and right before his eyes he saw Lance freeze then turn slightly to look at him. Blood was coming from his stomach as Lance slowly fell to his knees. 

"LANCE!!"

Keith held tightly onto his bayard and raced forward to protect his injured friends. As his sword clashed with the soldier before him he could hear Shiro's quick breaths coming over the coms. Then once again Keith heard a shot then another and another before he heard Shiro's small voice on the coms.

"K-Keith....I'm s'rry'' whispered Shiro.

"Shiro no! SHIRO!!"

Keith jumped up quickly in his bed, his heart racing and his breathing uneven. He was so lost in what just happened that he didn't hear the door open, hear someone walking up to him before it was too late.

"keith" Pidge whispered, a piece of him realized that someone was in his room, invading his space and danger just flowed through his veins. Keith quickly reached under his pillow and pulled his blade out and directed it to whomever he thought was a threat. 
Sadly it wasn't a threat but it was Pidge.

"Ouch!" cried out Pidge and at the sound of their voice broke Keith out of his trance. His eyes widen at what he did. Pidge had a cut across her hand and was cradling against her chest. Lance quickly rushed into the room and his blue eyes widen at the scene before him.

"Keith! What The Hell Man!?!?!" yelled Lance as he pulled Pidge closer towards him and gently took her injured hand into his.

"I-I....I didn't mean to. I....I'm sorry! I didn't-'' said Keith as he moved towards the end of his bed. He was stopped by the look Lance gave him, one of anger and fear. Keith froze and then looked down at his blade in his hands, the tip of the blade was covered in red. Pidge's blood. Keith dropped the blade onto the floor and looked at his shaking hands. A patch of purple was on his wrist and that sent fear rushing even faster than the nightmare had in his veins.

"Lance? I...I-I don't k-know what's....I-'' Keith mumbled then looked up to see tears in Pidge's eyes and Lance protecting her like a big brother. He would never hurt her, he would never hurt any of them, they were his teammates, his friends and people he was becoming to trust and lean on, people who he was now considering to be his family. He wouldn't ever hurt them but the look in Lance's eyes, the fear his body held it made a sicking feeling rush over Keith's entire form. He jumped off the bed and raced into the bathroom and locked the door. He didn't miss how Lance ever so slightly pushed Pidge behind him when he moved off of his bed. Lance was protecting her. Protecting her from him and that felt so horribly wrong.

Once he shut the bathroom door he fell to the ground. His whole body was shaking and he could now see more purple traveling over his once pale skin. He gasped and began to rub at the purple but that did nothing so he eventually began to scratch himself until he was bleeding. He was tearing at the purple skin because he needed it to be gone. 

Through all of this Keith had no idea what was going on inside his bedroom. He had no clue that Hunk had taken Pidge away or the fact that Lance was explaining to Allura what happened. He had no idea or realization of Shiro knocking on the bathroom door, calling his name and whispering to him that it was going to be alright. He was having a panic attack.

Keith pulled his knees to his chest, reached up and grabbed fist fulls of his hair and pulled it. Chocked sobs were coming out of him as he breathed faster and faster, to the point he was hyperventilating. Dark spots began to flood his vision as a ringing sound became loud in his eyes. He for a second thought he heard Shiro's voice for a moment but then everything went black.

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

After pounding on the bathroom door for what felt like forever and only getting sobs then silence from Keith, Shiro lit his galran hand up and broke through the door. He was shocked to find Keith laying passed out on the ground with a small puddle of blood surrounding his wrist.

Shiro didn't waste anytime standing there. He raced forward and scooped Keith's limp form into his arms and rushed out of the bedroom, pushing past Allura and Lance.

The run down the hallway felt never ending and it only made Shiro's chest even more tighter. He looked down at his little brother and could on see pain on his features. The little purple spot on his injured wrist was fading away and Shiro just pulled Keith closer towards his chest as he ran into the med bay.

"Coran!" yelled Shiro as he laid Keith down upon one of the hospital beds. Coran rushed over and began asking so many questions but Shiro held no answers to them. After a bit, Coran gently placed Keith into one of the pods. As the door closed and fog began to travel up the glass, Lance and Allura entered the room. Lance began to shout about how Keith's skin began to turn purple and that when he moved closer towards them, his eyes for a second flashed a golden color. Shiro was taking all of this in and before he could utter a single word in Keith's defense, Pidge yelled in the room, making everyone quite.

"SHUT UP!!" yelled Pidge who had a look of anger upon her face. 

"Pidge?'' questioned Hunk but she ignored him and marched her way over towards the pod Keith was in and stood beside Shiro.

"He's not a monster. He didn't mean it, he was just scared. I could see that in his eyes, no matter what color they were in'' said Pidge as she turned around to face the others. "He's in trouble I believe and we need to help him, he's our friend! He's like a...big brother to me and I-I can't lose another one...not again.'' Tears could been seen clearly in her eyes and Lance nodded his head and walked over to give her a hug. 

"I'm sorry, I was just really scared" Lance said as Pidge hugged him back.

"I know you were, so was I but Keith was the most frighten out of all of us'' Pidge whispered and pulled away from the hug and turned to face Shiro. 
"So what are we going to do next?" asked Pidge and Shiro looked at the others then back to the pod that held his, no...their brother.
