The two walked for days, following the roses scent.

"So why were you chilling in the bushes?" Lance asked.
"Oh! I was looking for berries! They're an ingredient in my recipe for muffins!"
"Wait, Trolls have ovens?" Lance chuckled.
"Of course we do!" Hunk said. "We're not animals!"
Lance looked at Hunk's fur and large body. "Yeah, sure!" He chuckled.

Hunk stopped.
"What is it?" Lance asked.
"The scent, it splits up here." Hunk said.
"How?"
"I'm not sure, but I smell it from both directions."
"Well, which way is keith?"
"I don't know, I guess we just have to wing it!"
"Lets go West," Lance said.
"The smell is stronger that way," Hunk said. "C'mon lets go!"

Lance and Hunk walked for a few hours, until they arrived at a large building made of glass.
"What is this place?" Lance asked in awe.
"I'm not sure, but this is where the scent is," Hunk said.

Lance opened the door, and was met with a humid mist. They walked inside.
It was a greenhouse. Plants of all shapes and sizes were all over, and you could barley see the stone pathes leading to a small hut inside.
In front though, were rows and rows of rose bushes.

"Oh no!" Lance whined. "These were the roses you were smelling! Keith isn't here!"
"Aw crap!" Hunk said. "We went the wrong way! Lance I'm so sorry!"
"It's ok Hunk, we'll just have to turn around-"

"Hey! Who's there?!"

The two turned to see a man. He wore very nice clothing however it was covered in dirt. He had long flowing white hair and pale skin. He held a rake like a weapon.
"Who are you and what are you doing in my garden-" suddenly the man laid eyes on Lance and stopped.
"We're so sorry to disturb you!" Lance said. "We lost our way and ended up here-"
"I-Its ok!" The man said, suddenly very flustered and red. "Come in, come in!" The man said. "You must be tried from your travels!"

Hunk and Lance were about to follow him when the man stopped Hunk. "I don't allow trolls in my garden! Wait outside,"
Hunk shrugged. He was used to this.

...

"Who are you?" Lance asked.
"I am Lotor, the Summer Witch," the man said.
"Summer Witch? Does that mean you know the Snow Queen? Ya know because she's witch too-"
"Well obviously, what wouldn't I know my own sister?" Lotor shrugged.
"Sister?!"
"Yup, she wasn't always an evil entity...But enough about that! Tell me about yourself!"
"Uh ok?" Lance said. "My name is Lance, I'm a gardener with my lover Keith. Keith was taken by the Snow Queen and I have to find him!"
"Oh well, if he was taken I would give up hope that he's your lover."
"Excuse me?!"

"The snow queen can only take those with a shard of an evil mirror in their eye. It turned them into a twisted version of themself." Lotor said that quickly, as if trying to get off the topic. "But I would be glad to help you move on," Lotor smirked.
"Uuuuuuh no thank you," Lance said standing up. "I love Keith and will never stop until I save him."
Lotor sighed. "If you must," he smiked and took Lance's hand. "Well I wish you the best of luck..." he gave Lance's knuckles a peck.

Lance felt dizzy. But why? He was just in his house-
Wait since when was this house? He wasn't sure.
Memories were flying all over the place, and he couldn't seem to know which ones were real or fake.
Before he knew it lance had passed out.

...

"Lance? Lance darling, wake up!"
Lance opened his eyes to see his Lotor.
"Lotor what happened?" Lance asked.
"You touched the poison lilacs, I warned you!" Lotor said.
"Oh, sorry Lotor," Lance said giving him a peck on the cheek.
"Come on Love, lets get back to work!"

(Before ya'll come @ me, let me clarify. This is an actual plot point in the original fairytale! With a kiss form the Summer Witch Gerda forgets about her mission to save Kai. SO NO ONE CAN COME AT ME MWAHAHAHA)
