So judging from that eyepatch Kai has and since its premovie, I'm guessing Kai gets his eye scar from this au?
If so, NICE. I need to know how he got it >:)
RIGHT OKAY!!
so before i start going off about it, i need to mention one thing, namely the fact that this au contains a multitude of me and @shadesofvermillionvoid 's personal headcannons and such.
by that, one really important thing that plays a big part of this au (and most of our aus including the show rewrite we've been thinking about) is the idea that lloyd has 4 forms, his dragon form, his oni form (which was in my last post), his human form and his inhuman form (which is his true form)
i swear ill get to kai just bear with me this is important to how he got the scar believe it or not
now his dragon and oni forms aren't entirely relevant to this au, (his dragon form doesn't even appear, since he has not yet reached his full potential, heck he isnt even the green ninja yet, he doesnt even know that his friends ARE THE NINJA). his oni form does play a part but it doesn't appear in the canon of the au (even though we've discussed it)
these are the forms i'm gonna focus on right now
lloyd's human form is, as you see up there, pretty much a disguise. his insides are still purple because this form only affects the outside.
one thing about it, is that he can only keep this human disguise in a healthy way up for about 4-5 hours before it starts to physically strain him and/or hurt him. keeping it up causes him to be really sleepy too, but he's learned to deal with that. (this is also important for a certain part of this au)
this form is the lloyd everyone knows and hates loves! he has it at school, in town, basically everywhere outside.
lloyd's inhuman form is what lloyd really looks like! very few people know of this form, as in: koko, garm, wu and the ninja squad.
he is VERY adamant about keeping this from under wraps, as he doesn't want to draw even more negative attention to himself and the people around him. he only looks like this when he's at home or at any of the ninja's homes, despite being more physically comfortable in it. he is extremely careful about this form not being revealed to the general public.
OKAY, YOU GOT ALL THAT? GOOD!
NOW TO WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED!!!
so, lloyd got dumped by harumi, and he got dumped HARD. as in, PUBLICALLY DUMPED IN FRONT OF EVERYONE.
harumi was only really using lloyd and didn't really actually love him, of course, she just wanted to toy with him. she was using garmadon's son for her own gain and she treated him like garbage during their relationship, and lloyd not knowing how all this stuff works just kind of...ate it all up like it was normal. kai noticed all of this but couldn't do much but to stare and be worried from the sidelines.
lloyd was shattered after the breakup, he'd become so attached to harumi and her toxic behaviors that even if he KNEW it was all wrong and twisted, he still wanted to go back, he still longed to be with her because it was something different. it took kai and the squad a long time to help lloyd accept that it was not something healthy, and even then he still gets very upset whenever harumi is mentioned around him. she traumatized him b a d. and thats not even the worst of it.
anyway! so harumi broke up with lloyd, but before this, lloyd decided it was a good time (since they'd been together for a few weeks already) to show harumi.. well...himself! he showed her his true form, thinking that he could trust her not to tell anybody else about it.
yeah... that didnt go well.
what harumi did, is that she managed to snap a blurry picture of lloyd in his true form, albeit blurry. and she decided to... post it online a few days after the breakup took place
lloyd, upon seeing this picture that harumi had just posted during class, gets up and BOOKS it to the school bathroom, to hide and... you know...cry.
kai sees harumi snickering, and he decides to excuse himself and follow lloyd, in hopes of comforting him. he's his best friend and older brother figure after all.
while on his way to the bathroom, he sees the chen cheerleader, lloyd's number one bully and kai's number one most hated person ever. chen also left class and is...wait he's heading to the bathroom.
kai knows that chen saw the picture and wants to hurt lloyd because of it, and he's NOT going to let that happen. before chen can open the door kai TACKLES him, and a fight ensues in which chen goes on about how lloyd is just a monster in disguise, and that he's doing everyone a favor.
chen. pulls out a pocket knife during this fight. he slashes at kai a few times but kai being a ninja and all knows how to dodge.
during this fight, chen manages to actually get in the boys bathroom where lloyd is, and blocks the entrance so kai can't come in. chen starts hurting lloyd, putting his head in the toilet, pinning him to the wall and trying to threaten him with the knife, trying to force that form in the picture out of lloyd. of course he isnt budging, but he's also not fighting back, lloyd never fights back in these situations.
meanwhile, kai is DESPERATE to open the fucking door, he is FREAKING OUT hes trying to hit it, to throw himself into it but nothing. the bell had rung by this point and a crowd started to gather.
the other ninja make their way to the commotion, and stare for a few seconds before kai notices them and he's like "DONT JUST FUCKING STAND THERE, HELP ME!"
cole makes kai get out of the way and breaks the door open. kai runs in to chen with the knife an inch close to lloyd's throat. he tackles chen and pins him to the wall, but chen manages to slash at kai, hitting his eye. and that's the scar! he didnt actually damage kai's eye that much, mostly scarred around it.
some teachers come in and break everything off. kai and lloyd are taken to the nurse and later kai and chen are taken to the principal's office, where chen twists the story, making kai seem like the bad guy.
chen gets off with a slap on the wrist, he gets his parents called to school. and kai gets off with a week suspension.
and lloyd...
well...lloyd's mental health... somehow gets... even worse
worse enough for him to do something *really* stupid
maybe @shadesofvermillionvoid can tell you what happens next, so go ask em abt this au too dont be shy!!! :D
and thanks if you read all that KJDWKKWD I TRIED MY BEST TO MAKE IT MAKE SENSE BUT IM HORRIBLE AT EXPLAINING
have some pre-movie au kais :)
