White Paladin Lance AU

White Paladin Lance AU

Okay, so a while ago I posted about my White Paladin Lance AU and since I will likely never actually write the story–because I just don’t feel that strongly about it–I’ll post the entire outline for y’all to read if you want to. It does involve Klance. Enjoy! :D

Okay, so what originally happened was that the paladins went to Daibazaal to investigate the old ruins of the rift in space. But it was a trap or something and one way or another there’s a fight. And during this fight, Lance and Keith end up falling through the rift with the black and red lions (Keith is the pilot of the black lion because that’s what I want. The default story I go to is that they found a virus in Shiro’s arm that was effecting his mental capacities—empathy, decision making—and because they couldn’t figure out how to get rid of the virus, Pidge put up a firewall around it, but Shiro no longer trusts himself to lead Voltron). Maybe one of them is injured, or maybe they were outside their lions when they got sucked in. They end up outside their lions in any case and because of an injury—maybe he was shot—Lance isn’t confident that he’ll survive, and so maybe he ends up pushing Keith back out somehow. I don’t know yet, but the point is that Lance ends up staying behind in the rift in order to save Keith’s life. But their departure from one another is very emotional and terrible, and Keith doesn’t want to leave him, but they’ll both die if he doesn’t. Something happens between them, surrounded in all that raw quintessence, but we’ll get into that later.

Allura is able to use her powers to close the rift just as Keith and the lions are shot out from it, which leaves Lance trapped and dying. But his experience connecting with multiple Voltron lions allows him to unconsciously stretch out toward another consciousness also existing in the void.

“You are a paladin.”

“Yes.”

The next thing he knows, Lance is waking up outside the rift. But it isn’t Voltron that greets him. He’s still injured and likely to die, but Galra soldiers intercept him and drag him to Haggar, who’s come to investigate what the paladins did to the rift. She initially takes little interest in Lance aside from maybe blackmail/bribe purposes at the right time, but eventually gets the idea that he might be beneficial to her. Humans, she’s learned, have a very flexible biology, and so he would likely be good for experimentation. So Lance is dragged off and his injury is carelessly healed, but now he’s a prisoner of the Galra, who don’t seem interested in using him as bait, thus his friends don’t know he’s alive.

Things do not go well for him from here on. Haggar doesn’t hesitate in beginning to torture and take him apart. With Shiro as an example, she begins her experiments.
