*Trigger Warning*

The Paladions were visiting Aney's home planet since there was an emergency call. Aney was, for once, leading the Paladions in her hyena as she kept rereading the message. "Aney! Are we there yet?" Pidge asked over the radio. "Almost!" Aney replied until she suddenly stopped.

The others stopped and stepped out to see graves next to her village. Aney's ears and tail lowered with her stomach. Hunk and Keith looked at eachother as Aney started walking into her village. One of her kind ran out and told her who died. Shiro was behind Aney when the messanger said "your sister".

Aney had to take a minute to process that before running into graveyard. "Aney!" Lance called as he ran after her. The others watched as Aney ran up a hill, almost tripping over some grave stones, until Lance saw her stop in front of a silver grave.

Aney dropped to her knees as she was choking down so many emotions. Lance walked next to her and got on his knees next to her. He pulled her closer and cradled Aney's head into his chest. "Aney. Let it out." Lance said as the others came.

Aney only took a small breath before wailing and sobbing. Pidge walked over and hugged Aney from behind as Aney hiccuped and kept sobbing. Shiro and Keith looked at the grave as Hunk, Coran,and Allura joined the hug. Aney was starting to grip Lance's chestplate as she cursed into the wind.

~ Later ~

Lance walked to the graveyard while everyone was unloading supplies as Aney looked at her sister's grave. "Aney?" Aney turned to Lance with a sad puppy look in her eyes. "We all know how you feel. Don't be afraid to tell us anything, ok?" Lance said as he walked to her.

Aney nodded as she sniffled. Lance hugged her side and rubbed her shoulder. "Can you turn to me for a minute?" Aney turned her head before Lance kissed her forehead. "It'll be alright. I saw you two when we first gave them supplies. She was so proud of you."

Aney smiled, remembering that moment, before Lance lifted her chin. "I know she'd always be proud." Lance said as he leaned in. Aney leaned in, not seeing Shiro walking up to them, as the two moved their lips against eachothers. "Hope I'm not interrupting." The two jolted and yelped.

"Aney. Is the storage unit past or part of the temple?" "Part of it. Basement floor." Shiro left as Lance sighed. Aney then nuzzled Lance's chest before Lance chuckled. "I love you, Aney. I promise nothing will hurt us." Aney smiled as she felt Lance's arms aroumd her. "I love you too, Lance."
