Everything went wrong. They thought too peacefully too soon. The next morning at 6:30 am was filled with arguments and insults thrown at each other as they got dressed. And it wasn't Lance and Keith, no no, it was their Alpha and Omega fighting. And if Shiro hadn't bust down the door to stop them, Lance would've attack Keith. Allura, Pidge, and Hunk were watching as Shiro yanked Lance away from Keith, who was moments away from jumping the omega, which a hurt teammate was the last thing they needed. Everyone was scared out of their minds with the scene before them.

Lance ended up being locked in a containment room in the castle, and Keith locked himself into his room, not letting anyone in, or not even leaving to get food or water. Everyone was completely worried out of their minds and ended up having a team meeting without them.

"I know they fight, but not like this" Allura had said, they were all in the lounge area sitting down (including Shiro). That morning they were under the impression that the castle was being attacked, due to the very strong viscous pheromones spreading throughout the ship. But when they heard Keith and Lance's voices, they knew something must've happened, and Shiro ended up bolting down the hallway to Keith's room, then the scene a few hours ago played before them.

"They were talking about 'Mother Nature' and 'Laws' or something" Hunk said, food muffling his words slightly as he ate. He had stressed cooked earlier and was now stress eating, along with Pidge who was typing on their computer rather harshly. "They were fine just yesterday, after the meeting" They said, typing at an inhuman speed, "Though Lance seemed to hesitate when he talked, like he said something wrong".

"Do you think Keith fought with him yesterday? I mean, Keith had faint scratch marks on his shoulders, and Lance was ever so slightly limping" Allura said, seeming to be the only one who noticed. Shiro sighed before speaking, "No, Keith wouldn't pick such a fight with someone, and fighting isn't something you'd talk about when you're referring to 'Mother Nature' and 'Laws'" he said, you could see the concern in his eyes, but he kept a straight face. Keith never really picks a fight with Alphas, sure he threatens them from time to time, but he would never make an Alpha mad, as much as Lance's was. To the point where Lance had almost attack Shiro earlier, which attacking a pack leader can get you kicked out in an instant, no matter how important you are to that pack in question.

"You don't think they were talking about the Laws of Nature, do you?" Pidge asked, abruptly making a stop to their typing, while connecting two dots in their brain. Talking about the laws of nature was a big thing, so they were having a mini panic attack. "But what could be so bad, that you'd talk about the laws of nature?" Hunk asked, before speaking again, "Not even them but their secondary genders", the slightest bit of fear in his voice.

"I don't know, but it has to be something really bad" Shiro said, turning to the rest of the team as he continued, "Does anyone know how to calm down Lance's Alpha?". "I do!" Hunk said, raising his hand. Everyone stared at him, and he sheepishly put his hand and clearing his throat, "Um- I know how to" he said. Shiro just nodded and turned to everyone else.

"Great, Hunk, you go talk to Lance. Pidge, find a way into Keith's room, but don't actually go in, he still needs time to himself. Allura, connect with you're inner Beta and ask some questions about 'The Laws of Nature'. And I'll make sure Hunk doesn't get hurt, sound like a plan?" Shiro said, in his 'leader' voice. Everyone agreed, before going their separate ways, making the meeting come to an end.

(I'm going to use the name 'Alpha' to represent Lance's Alpha so it doesn't get confusing)

There Lance was, curled up into a little ball in a blank room with no windows, but a door that looked exactly like the walls. He was in pain, and it wasn't after sex pain, no, he felt like he had been decked in the stomach five times, and stabbed in the legs, preventing him from standing up properly. And, on top of that, he couldn't control Alpha at all. He's been trying to sympathize with it for hours, but it wouldn't listen, which would result in it snapping at anyone who got near Lance, and that meant anyone.

This morning was the worst, he woke up in Keith's bed alone. He saw Keith putting on his shirt, with the rest of his clothes already on. He seemed to have this intoxicating anger as he threw Lance his clothes, before starting an argument with him. Lance almost admittedly knew it wasn't Keith, it had been his Omega, but before he could say or do anything, Alpha took over, and Lance could only see the fight play out before him as he couldn't do anything else. It was horrible. It was like watching a kind old woman being brutally murdered in front of your face, and you couldn't do anything about it. At least it felt like that.

After Shiro had come in, grabbed him, and threw him into this white room was when he got control over his body. Not full control, as Alpha would snap at anyone, but enough to move around as much as his body could take him, which wasn't far due to the overwhelming pain.

Lance sat there for a few moments, before smelling something familiar. It seemed to make Alpha's tail wag (if it even had one), and he looked over at the door. He saw Hunk holding a plate of cookies at the doorway, as he smiled sheepishly. Alpha growled lowly when Lance had seen Shiro standing behind Hunk. Shiro just safetly back away in response, as Hunk slowly entered the room.

"Hey buddy, remember me?" Hunk said, holding out the plate of cookies as he cautiously walked towards Lance. He wasn't talking to him, but rather to Alpha instead. This seemed all too familiar to Lance as Alpha took over his body and grabbed one of Hunk's baked goods. How did he get them anyways? They were in space. When Alpha had taken a bite of the cookie Lance's mind snapped as he remembered. It must've been his second year at the garrison, and they were doing test on the Alphas and Omegas, and Alpha was deathly afraid of needles, it almost attacked the nurse. Hunk had been right outside the door with fresh baked cookies, and Alpha ended up breaking down the door and tackling him. Thank god he didn't hurt him, but Alpha ended up eating all the fresh baked goods and Lance had gotten in trouble for that and had to help Hunk make food for a week.

"See, look, you're fine" Hunk said, smiling as he sat in front of Lance while he ate. Alpha instantly thought of him a friend instead of a threat but glared at Shiro in the doorway. Shiro just glared back, being the pack leader and all. "Ok, so, Lance—'s Alpha" Hunk said, almost saying Lance, "I need to know what happened between you and Keith". Alpha growled at the name almost instantly, but in no way threating towards Hunk. He shook his head quickly, not wanting to say anything.

Hunk frowned and looked back at Shiro, shaking his head 'no' towards him. Shiro sighed and walked over to Hunk. Alpha moved away instantly, growling as Shiro stepped closer. Shiro gave hunk something and Hunk took it instantly, before looking back at Lance. "Can you close your eyes for a minute?" He asked Alpha. Alpha only huffed and closed his eyes, waiting for something to happen. Something did happen infact, a very sharp pain in his arm. His eyes snapped open and he saw a needle into his skin, and freaked out admittedly. It was gone as soon as it was there, but Alpha was still panicking. "Sorry buddy" Hunk murmured. Lance suddenly had full control over his body, pain still filled it, but not as much anymore. He couldn't feel Alpha at all.

"What did you do?" Lance asked, as Hunk put a band aid on his arm, where the shot had been. "Don't worry, I put him to sleep" Hunk said smiling, before seeming to become serious all of a sudden.

"But we need to know what happened between you and Keith"

(Same thing goes for Keith's Omega, just going to go by the name Omega)

Why can't Keith just catch a break?! This morning was horrible. Horrible. Stupid fucking omega's trying to get him laid now. He had talked to him earlier, and all he said was 'we need to clean up your mess', and just like that Keith had gone into heat. It's like Omega just flipped a switch. Keith didn't know what his problem was, but doing this was going behind his back. It wasn't even mating season! And it's not like what he did was that bad. Omega wants him to mate with someone else now, and specifically be the bottom.

Thank god this happened after Omega's fight with Lance's Alpha, or Keith would've been jumped by both Lance and Shiro. But that didn't mean Keith was happy about this whole situation. Heats usually lasts about 3-4 days, but something was telling him that it was going to last longer.

He heard some kind of metal creak from the ceiling. Keith looked to see what it was, but all he saw was his air vent. Must be the mice. Speaking of mice, they've been spying on Keith over this past week, along with everyone else, but Keith's the only one that's noticed so far.

The vents continued to squeak but abruptly stopping once it seemed to make it to Keith's air vent. Keith just looked the vent, confused. Only moments later was when it started to squeak again, but the sound moved away from Keith, as if the mice were retreating. Keith just ignored it, as the mice would probably just tell Allura about his heat. Maybe he could get some suppressants from her. Omega growled at the thought of anyone besides an Alpha entering Keith's room. Yeah yeah, get laid, Keith forgot that was what Omega was doing in the first place.

It wasn't like this heat hurt a lot, this one was forced so it had less of an effect, but it still hurt like hell, nonetheless. Keith wrapped himself in his blanket as a coping mechanism, ignoring how overly hot it made him. He seemed to lay like that for hours, until he heard the vents start to squeak again.

The vent opened this time, surprising Keith. He heard something slide through the vents, then a piece of clothing fell right out of it. It looked like one of Hunk's shirts. Another piece of clothing fell out again, this time being Pidge's sweatshirt. And another, Allura's dress, and another, Shiro's shirt. The last piece of clothing fell, and Omega practically screeched in horror. It was Lance's jacket, and probably his only one too. A piece of paper followed suit, slowly falling from the vent, then the vent closed.

Keith got up, almost stumbling in the process, and went to go read the note. He didn't recognize the handwriting, but read it anyways;

Dear Keith,

Here are some of the teams clothes, sorry for snooping on you, but I know an omega needs a nest to get through heat. Don't go to crazy

-Pidge ;)

Keith smiled softly and looked up at the vent. Pidge must've left, but Keith still muttered a 'Thank You'. He quickly picked up the clothes and laid them neatly on his bed, Lance's jacket catching his eye. Omega was screaming in the back of his mind to throw it out. Keith just sighed and folded Lance's jacket, before placing it on the other side of the room. He returned back to his bed, now nest I guess, and laid down, enjoying the comfort of all their scents.

He grabbed a random piece of clothing and cuddled up to it, only to notice it was Shiro's shirt. Keith sighed annoyingly as he could practically feel the excitement from Omega. He tried to ignore it as he tried to just focus on the comforting smells around him.

He could already tell this is going to be the longest heat he's ever been through.
