The pillar which Lance, Blue, and Pidge were trapped in, ended up crashing into one of the hills covered in snow. The pillar rolled down towards the cliff edge but stopped before it reached the edge. Lance, Blue, and Pidge had all be thrown out the window when the pillar crashed down.
Lance pulled himself to his knees, the wind blew harshly around him, his vest doing little to protect him from the cold. "Blue?" he asked softly, his voice being covered by the harsh blowing wind. Lance grew worried and trudged his way to the cliff edge, he leaned over and panic fled through him, what if Blue had fallen over the edge? "Blue!" he yelled over the wind.
The sound of teeth shivering behind him made Lance turn around. He caught sight of a shivering snow pile and immediately ran over. He reached into the pile and started digging "Oh, this is all my fault-I should have freed Hunk when I had the chance" Lance eventually reached Blue and pulled the freezing lion cub out of the snow and into his arms.
"Blue! Are you okay?" Blue nodded softly and hid her face in Lance's vest. " I'm sorry, Blue-I made a mess of everything, somehow" Lance stood up and glanced around "I gotta go back and set things right, now where's Pidge?" Lance took a step and a crunch beneath him made him stop.
Lance lifted his foot and found frozen Pidge in her carpet form. "Pidge!" Lance went to help her up but found she was stuck beneath the fallen pillar. Lance began to pull her to try and free his trapped friend. Seeing that the idea wasn't working, Lance and Blue began to try and dig her out.
However, by then digging the pillar slowly began to roll down. Lance grabbed Blue by her tail and started running towards the edge. Lance turned around and his and Blue's eyes widened. Lance saw the window and moved a few feet forwards, hoping he timed it right, Lance pulled Blue close and kneeled down.
The pillar rolled right over them, the window just big enough the save them from being crushed. The pillar rolled down the cliff's edge and fell down. Lance stood up "Yeah! All right!" Blue nodded and jumped off his shoulder. Lance turned back to Pidge as she was shaking the snow off her.
"Now, back to Altea! Let's go!" Lance and Blue climbed on top of Pidge and she sped back towards Altea, hopefully, they would get there in time.
Meanwhile back at the palace, huge piles of assorted jewels littered the floors of the throne room. Lotor sat on the throne with Hunk sitting sadly on the steps leading up to the throne. Lightning outside flashed, only adding to Lotor's villain element. The lamp sitting on the arm of the throne, far out of anyone's reach.
Coran was chained to the wall beside the throne, Shiro had been changed into a pair of loose black pants, a dark magenta long-sleeved shirt with loose sleeves, and brown shoes. Replacing where his crown would sit, was a brown hat. His wrists and ankles were tied with string which was tied to a rod which held Shiro up like a puppet.
Keith stood beside the throne, golden cuffs with chains around his wrists which were wrapped around Lotor's staff. His prince garments were replaced with black billowy harem pants, a black vest, black shoes, and a gold belt around his waist. And around his arm was a golden armband. In his hands he held a tray of different assorted fruit, all for Lotor eat at his leisure.
At the moment, Sendak was forcing several of the crackers Shiro would feed him down the king's throat. "Puppet ruler want a cracker? Here's your cracker. Shove 'em all right down your throat. Here, have lots!" Keith and Coran watched in horror as Sendak stuffed more crackers in Shiro's mouth, while Lotor laughed at the king's predicament.
"Lotor! Leave him alone!" Keith yelled angrily at the man who sat on his father's throne. Lotor rolled his eyes and waved his hand towards Sendak, Sendak stopped and went to sit on the upper arch of the throne.
Lotor pulled his staff closer, which pulled Keith closer by the chains around his wrists. In his hands was an apple "It pains me to see you reduced to this, your highness" Keith rolled his eyes as Lotor took a bite of the apple. "A beautiful desert bloom such as yourself should be on the arm of the most powerful man in the world" Lotor tapped his staff and the chains around Keith's wrists disappeared, along with the cuffs.
Keith dropped the apple in surprise as the chains became a gold crown. The crown hovered above Lotor's hand as he leaned in close to the prince. "What do you say, my prince? Why, with you as my husband…" as Lotor was speaking, Keith behind his back was picking up the wine glass. Before Lotor could finish his sentence Keith splashed the wine onto the man's face. "Never!" Lotor pulled back and the crown dropped to the ground.
Lotor growled and raised his hand. "I'll teach you some respect!" Keith found himself hitting the table and falling onto the ground as Lotor backhanded the prince down. Lotor went to say more, but he stopped and an evil grin formed on his face.
"No. Genie, I have decided to make my final wish" Hunk winced as he turned to face the man. "I wish for Crown Prince Keith to fall desperately in love with me" Keith's eyes widened and he couldn't stop the gasp that tore out of his mouth.
Hunk stood up and chuckled nervously to Lotor. "Ah, master- there are a few addendas, some quid pro quo-" Lotor growled and stomped over to the genie. "Don't talk back to me, you stupid idiot! You will do what I order you to do, slave!" Keith glanced up seeing movement in one of the upper windows.
His eyes widened seeing Lance, Blue, and Pidge(now in human form) sitting on the window sill. Lance and Pidge motioned for him to be quiet as Lotor continued to yell at Hunk. Thoughts ran through the prince's head, he was going to hate himself for this. "Damn it all to hell" Keith whispered and slowly started to stand up.
"Lotor!" Keith called grabbing the two men's attention. Keith chuckled and grabbed the fallen crown on the ground. "I never realized how incredibly handsome you are" Keith placed the crown on his head and gave Lotor a look. Hunk's jaw dropped and the lions in the cages behind Keith gave each a look of pure confusion. Red growled as her cub didn't seem to be acting like himself.
Lotor chuckled and walked towards the prince "That's better" Lotor pushed Hunk's jaw up as Keith walked slowly towards him, making sure the torchlight hit him just right. "Now my flower, tell me more...about myself" Keith chuckled. "You're tall, well dressed…" as Keith distracted Lotor, the trio in the window climbed down. Hunk turned and his eyes widened in happiness "Lance! Lance, little buddy!" Lance motioned for him to be quiet.
Hunk (literally) zipped his mouth shut and flew over to the group. He unzipped his mouth and whispered to Lance "Lance, I can't help you-I work for Senor Psychopath, now". Lance smiled "Hey-I'm a street rat, remember?" Lance zipped Hunk's mouth back up "I'll improvise".
Hunk stayed behind with Pidge, who was ordered by Lance only to pop in when necessary. Lance and Blue slid down a pile of coins. They hid close to where Lotor and Keith were, but also relatively close to where the lamp was. Lance peaked at Keith and seeing Lotor's back to the lamp he started slowly crawling to the throne. Coran and Shiro noticed, but seeing the situation, they remained quiet.
"Go on" Lotor said with a sly smile "And your hair...is so...long!" Keith ran his hand through Lotor's white hair and with the other motioned for Lance to hurry it up. Keith mentally rolled his eyes, not sure how much longer he could keep this up.
As Lance drew closer, Sendak noticed from the pillow he was sitting on and started yelling for Lotor. "Lot-mmmmmm!" before he could finish, Blue jumped on him and pushed him into the pillow with all four had now reached the throne and hid behind the side "and the street rat?" Keith chuckled and drew Loto's face closer "what street rat?" he asked innocently.
Lance had almost grasped the lamp but, Sendak, while struggling beneath the cub's paws, had managed to knock over a bowl. Lotor turned around, but before he could see who had caused the crash, Keith grabbed the sides of his face and drew him into a fast kiss. Lance gasped and a disgusted face grew on his face, the same look grew on everyone else's faces.
They separated and Lotor smile "That was-" Lotor glanced down into Keith's crown and saw Lance's reflection, once again reaching for the lamp. "You! How many times do I have to kill you, boy?" Lotor turned around and struck Lance with his magic which threw him into one of the piles of coins and jewels.
Keith gasped and grabbed onto Lotor's staff, intending to pull the staff out of Lotor's hands. However, Lotor overthrew Keith and threw the prince once more to the ground. Lance rushed forwards and grabbed onto the staff, he glanced back at Keith as he and Lotor fought for the staff. "Get the lamp!" Keith nodded and stood up, he ran over to the throne just as Lotor threw Lance to the side.
As Keith's hand wrapped around the handle, Lotor struck Keith with his magic. Keith found himself thrown back and Lotor laughed. "Ah, ah, ah, your highness-Your time is up!" Lotor was then tackled to the ground by an angry Lance. Keith grunted as he landed on the ground. Not only that, but he was now trapped in a large hourglass. Lance glanced up and his and Keith's eyes locked.
"Keith!" Lance yelled out as golden sand began to fall from the top to the bottom. Sendak cackled from where he and Blue were on the ground. "Oh, nice shot, Lot-" before he could finish his thought, Blue knocked him out with a strong hit from her paw. Lotor once again pushed Lance off as Blue started to run for the lamp.
"Don't toy with me!" Lotor yelled as his magic turned Blue in a toy lion. "Blue!" Lance yelled, Pidge had changed into her carpet form and was now flying towards the lamp. "Pidge no!" Lance yelled as Pidge grabbed the lamp in one of her tassels "things are unraveling fast, now boy".
Lance rushed for the lamp as Pidge became unraveled in a pile of string and four tassels. Before he could grab the lamp his way was blocked by several sharp swords "Get the point?" Keith rolled his eyes despite his predicament, at the bad puns Lotor was making. What was worse, was that the man was laughing at his own jokes to,
Lance reached through the swords and tried to grab the lamp. Before he could, Lotor grabbed it first, Lance stood up and pulled one of the swords out of the ground. "I'm just getting warmed up!" Lotor yelled as he blew fire from his mouth, creating a circle of fire around Lance.
"Are you afraid to fight me yourself, you cowardly snake?" Lance yelled as Lotor was hidden behind the flames. "A snake, am I?" Lotor asked as he stepped through the flames, perfectly unharmed. "Perhaps you'd like to see how snake-like I can be!" Lotor smiled as a snakes tongue poked through his now fanged teeth as he soon became a giant purple and white cobra. Lance's eyes widened as the snake continued to grow.
The ring of fire around Lance began to change into the tail of the cobra. Lance was now worried, he had to fight a giant snake, and all he was a small sword. "Okay, a bit unfair" Lance muttered as Lotor hissed and dove down to bite at him. Lance luckily, jumped out of the way and Lotor moved closer to where he landed, once again trying to bite him.
Lance moved and when Lotor went down a thirds time, Lance struck him with the sword. Lotor cried out in pain. On the sideline Hunk had made several copies of himself dressed in a cheerleaders dress with the letter L in blue on the chest. "Rickem, rockem, rackem, rake-stick that sword into that snake!" Lotor hissed at the genie and glared "you stay out of thissss!".
Hunk pouted and the copies disappeared, he now held a purple flag with the letter L in white, which he waved back a forth. "Lotor, Lotor, he's our man if he can't do it, GREAT!" Lotor hissed once more and made a mental note to punish the genie later.
With Lotor distracted, Lance ran towards Keith, sword in hand. Lotor noticed and when Lance was beside a coin pile, hit it with his tail and knocked several coins on the ground. As a result, Lance slipped, the sword falling out of his hand and sliding a few feet away from him. "Lance!" Keith called out, Lance glanced back, and seeing the sand still falling, he gained an adrenaline rush and jumped onto a large nearby gem.
The gem then slid across the floor and Lance grabbed his sword. Lance ended up sliding towards the balcony, Lotor followed. Lotor crashed through the small opening of the balcony, with Lotor so big he was stuck. Lance jumped down and struck Lotor with the sword, Lotor cried out in pain.
Lance ran back in and ran as fast as he could towards the hourglass, a piece of wood in his hands. The sand now up to Keith's neck, with the sand on the bottom of the glass Keith could feel his feet struggling to stay up. "Hang on Keith!" Lance yelled as he raised his arms to strike the glass.
Before he Lotor grabbed Lance with his coils and lifted him off the ground, raising him up to Lotor. "You little fool! You thought you could defeat the most powerful being on earth!" Sendak watched from the throne and smiled, unknown that Hunk was sneaking up behind him. "Squeeze him, Lotor-Squeeze him like a-awk!" before he could finish(again), Hunk elbowed the bird away.
"Without the genie, boy, you're nothing!" Lance struggled and froze as an idea came to him. "The Genie! The genie!" Lance glanced back at Hunk who shrugged, he couldn't help Lance as he was bound to Lotor now. "Hunk has more power than you'll ever have!" Lotor glared at the boy "what!" Lance smirked, "he gave you your power, he can take it away!" Hunk chuckled nervously as he hid behind a pillar.
"Lance, what are you doing? Why are you bringing me into this?" Lance ignored him as he continued taunting Lotor. "Face it, Lotor-you're still just second best!" Lotor was silent for a moment before realization hit him. "You're right! His power does exceed my own! But not for long!" Lotor made his way over to Hunk, Lance still trapped in his coils.
"The boy is crazy. He's a little punch drunk. One too many hits with the snake" Hunk changed one hand into a snake and hit himself in the head as Lotor circled around him. "Slave, I make my third wish! I wish to be an all-powerful genie!" Hunk winced as he felt his magic compel him to do Lotor's wish.
Lance watched, his eyes looked on in worry as the sand was up to Keith's violet eyes. Hunk sighed "All right, your wish is my command. way to go, Lance" Hunk whispered to Lance who gave him a look to hurry up. Hunk pointed his finger and struck Lotor with his magic. Lotor gasped as the magic rushed through him.
His snake coils disappeared and Lance fell to the ground. Lotor soon changed from the purple and white snake to a purple giant genie. He grew and eventually ended up breaking through the food of the palace. Lance glanced up and saw Keith's raised hands become buried underneath the sand.
Lance grabbed a nearby piece of debris and broke the glass of the hourglass. The golden sand spilled out as did a nearly unconscious Keith, who coughed the sand out of his lungs. Lance pulled Keith into his arms as strong gusts of wind blew around from Lotor.
"Yes! Yes! The power! The absolute power!" As Lotor grew, a dark violet lamp appeared on the ground, Lotor's smoky tail bound to it. Lance held on to Keith as the wind dragged them on the ground. "What have you done?" Keith yelled over the wind "trust me!" Lance yelled back.
"The universe is mine to command, to control!" Lotor yelled as he created magical items, which floated around him. Lance stood up and headed over the lamp, Keith headed to his father and untied him. Together they headed to Coran and unchained him to the wall. The trio held on to the throne as the wind became stronger.
"Not so fast, Lotor! Aren't you forgetting something?" Lotor glanced down in anger. His bubble of pride was now popped as he remembered the boy he was trying to get rid of. "You wanted to be a genie, you got it!" Lance picked up the lamp and Lotor's eyes widened.
Suddenly gold cuffs appeared on Lotor's wrists "what?" Lance smiled "and everything that goes with it" Lotor cried out as he began to shrink down to the lamp "No! No!" Sendak's eyes widened and he started flying "I'm gettin' out of here! Come on, you're the genie, I don't want-" before he could finish, Lotor grabbed the bird and continued to shrink down into the lamp.
"Phenomenal cosmic powers!" Lance yelled as Lotor and Sendak shrank into the lamp. When the wind died down Lance smiled "Itty bitty living space" Hunk smiled and ruffled Lance's hair "Lance, you little genius, you!" Lance smiled.
After the chaos, Lotor's magic faded away. Blue became a lion cub again, Pidge became a full carpet again and changed into her human form. Keith, Shiro, and Coran were changed back into their original outfits. The lions were freed from their cages and Red and Black were changed back into their original sizes.
Red ran up to Keith and tackled her cub to the floor. Keith laughed as she began to lick her cub in happiness "okay, okay! Red, I'm glad to see you too". Outside the palace reappeared back in its original spot, and rebuilt too.
Lance glanced down at the lamp and rolled his eye hearing Sendak and Lotor arguing inside. "Get your blasted beak out of my face!" Lotor snapped, Sendak replied just as angry. "Oh, shut up, you moron!" "don't tell me to shut up!" Lotor snapped back.
Hunk and Lance shared a look and Hunk grabbed the lamp out of Lance's hands. "Allow me" Hunk headed to the balcony and grew big with a baseball cap on. He wound his arm up and raised it in the air "Ten- thousand years in a cave of wonders ought to chill him out!". Hunk then placed the lamp in one hand and flicked it out of his hand. The lamp flew all the way to the desert where the cave was.
Keith walked over and grabbed Lance's hand, Lance turned around with a frown. "Keith, I'm sorry I lied to you about being a prince" Keith gave a kind smile. "I know why you did" Lance bent his head down "Well, I guess...this... is goodbye?" Hunk hid behind a pillar. His eyes widened at hearing what Lance had just said.
Keith growled and shook his head "Oh, that stupid law. This isn't fair-I love you" Hunk suddenly appeared behind Lance and startled the couple. "Lance, no problem. You've still got one wish left. Just say the word and you're a prince again" Lance turned to Hunk and shook his head. "But Hunk, what about your freedom?" Hunk smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
"Hey, it's only an eternity of servitude. This is love" Hunk stepped beside Keith and held an arm around his shoulders. "Buddy, you're not gonna find another guy like her in a million years" Keith gave a kind smile to Hunk who slid over to Lance. "Believe me, I know. I've looked" Lance sighed and grabbed Keith's hands "Keith, I do love you, but I've gotta stop pretending to be something I'm not" Keith nodded with a soft sigh "I understand".
Pidge, Shiro, Coran, and the lions(now in human form) watched sadly from a distance. They knew of the love the two shared, one that can be hard to find. True Love.
Lance turned to Hunk "Hunk, I wish for your freedom" Hunk cracked his fingers with a smile "One bona fide prince pedigree coming up. I-what?" Hunk froze as Lance held up the lamp. "Hunk, you're free!".
The lamp lifted into the air and golden smoke appeared out of the lamp. The smoke became small golden fireworks and everyone watched with wide eyes as the shackles on Hunk's wrists disappeared. The lamp flickered a few times before finally falling to the ground.
Hunk bent over and picked it up, staring at it for a few moments. "Heh, heh! I'm free. I'm free" Hunk placed the lamp in Lance's hands, Lance gave Hunk a look on confusion. "Quick, quick, wish for something outrageous" Lance and Keith shared a look, Keith shrugged not getting where the genie was coming from. "Say "I want the Nile." wish for the Nile. Try that!" Lance gave another confused look before repeating what Hunk said.
"I wish for the Nile?" "No way!" Hunk yelled before laughing hysterically. Hunk suddenly started bouncing up and down, hitting the pillars and the balcony railing, the sounds like a pinball machine. "Oh does that feel good! I'm free!" Hunk then shook Blue, Green, Yellow, and Pidge's hands at once with a huge. The four growing smiles on their faces. Hunk then moved on to Keith and Lance and shook their hands as well "I'm free at last!".
Hunk then flew into the air and started filling a suitcase with clothes and random objects. "I'm hittin' the road. I'm off to see the world! I-" Hunk stopped packing and turned to Lance. The boy looked just about ready to cry, Hunk's face softened as Lance gave him a sad smile.
"Hunk, I'm-I'm gonna miss you" Lance said as Hunk flew down to his friend. "Me too, Lance" Hunk drew Lance into a hug and separated with a sniffle. Hunk grabbed onto Lance's shoulders and looked into his eyes "No matter what anybody says, you'll always be a prince to me".
Shiro decided it was time he stepped in "That's right. You've certainly proven your worth as far as I'm concerned. It's that law that's the problem". Keith turned to his father with a surprised look "Father?" Shiro chuckled and ruffled Keith's hair gently. "Well, am I king or am I king?" Shiro turned to Coran who got the hint and pulled out a scroll and a pen. "From this day forth, the Prince shall marry whomever he deems worthy" Keith smiled and turned to Lance.
"Him!" Keith ran towards Lance who picked him up around the waist and spun him around. "I choose you, Lance" Lance smiled "then do be the honor of marrying me?" Keith nodded. "I will" the two leaned in to kiss but Hunk stepped in and drew everyone in a giant group hug. He was dressed in a Hawaiian shirt with a yellow baseball cap on that spelled 'PALADIN' on his head.
"Oh, all of ya. Come over here. Big group hug!" When the hug was over Hunk turned to Yellow. "Are you coming with me?" Yellow looked unsure. She turned to the group who gave her a smile, knowing this was her choice to make. "I-uh-I'd like to stay here" Hunk smiled and drew the girl into a hug. "Best wishes then" Yellow nodded and wiped a tear away.
Hunk stepped forwards towards Pidge. "I have a little present for you" Hunk waved his hand and golden dust fell on top of Pidge. "What was that?" she asked as the dust faded. Hunk smiled "I made it so that you can stay human for how long you like without having to change back to a carpet to recharge". Pidge smiled and drew her friend into a hug "thank you Hunk".
"Well, I can't do any more damage around this popsicle stand. I'm outta here! Bye, bye, you two crazy lovebirds" Hunk said as he flew up to the sky, waving to the couple. "Hey, Pidge: ciao! I'm history! No, I'm mythology! No, I don't care what I am-I'm free!" Hunk disappeared a golden firework exploding in his place.
In the evening there was a celebration. Shiro announced Keith and Lance engagement. Fireworks were currently going off as a celebration. Pidge flew the couple up into the sky and the two shared twin smiles. There was no more danger, nor laws to keep them apart now.
