Zinnias | Lloyd Garmadon x reader

This is how our lives worked. We both had such different roles in this life. But I know we can make it work.

I crept through the woods. Hiding behind every tree I needed too. I was tracking this rogue beast that was apparently harbouring a dragon egg. An object from a realm that wasn’t this one. Being the master of realms meant I had to keep everything in order and objects being in the wrong realm could mean the whole foundation of the different realms could be broken and ultimate destruction. Finally I had reached its nest. I loaded my bow and arrow and listened, apprehensively. Then I heard its footsteps cause some leaves and twigs to crunch and instantly moved to shoot at the beast only to gasp and immediately point my bow at the floor.

“Hey, peaches.”

The man in front of me grinned and shuffled the dragon egg into one hand to allow me to charge at him and wrap my arms around his neck. He spun me around in a princess twirl with one arm and kissed the side of my head as I squealed in glee. I looked up at him in shock.

“What are you doing here?! I thought you were-“

“Tracking some gang members- I was! But I finished early so I got pixal to send me your mission info and I thought I’d come join you for our anniversary.” He said and I gasped.

“Oh my god- first of all, deep voice -second, it’s been that long?” I asked and he nodded, arm wrapping around my waist as we headed out the woods. Leaving the peacefully sleeping (knocked out) beast at its nest.

“It’s been that long…” he said, deflated.

“I’m guessing no leads on Master Wu then.” I said and he nodded.

“Jay and Cole are going to investigate one but I can place all my bets on it being a lost cause.” He said and I leaned on him.

“Hmm… 5 years though. What an accomplishment!” I said and he smiled.

“I’m proud of us… from 17 to 22, well 18-23 for me. How have you stuck with me for so long?” He asked and I laughed.

“It’s not been easy.” I said and he looked at me offended.

“Oh really?” He asked and I laughed.

“Oh yeah.” I said and I moved in front of him and started walking backwards so I could still face him. “Especially when you told me that I was actually in a relationship with a 14 year old.” I said and his face dropped.

“No! No I was not 14! I’m not 19 either. Everything about me says 23- almost 24! The time- if that’s how we’re arguing it works then that would make the others 16 with how young they were turned.” Lloyd defended and I laughed.

“I know, I know. Although, you do sound like you’ve just gone through puberty.” I said and he smiled.

“Y/n, I’ve gone months at a time without speaking.” He explained and I shrugged. He used to be the only who could say my name without me glitching. Now anyone could say it but Peach has stuck for too long now.

“It’s okay, I dig it.” I said and he shook his head in amusement. “Say my name again.” I said and wrapped my arms around his neck and he shook his head and leaned his head against me. “Say it. C’mon.” I said and pretended to bite his nose which made him laugh.

“Y/n, my Peach, Peaches, the Apple of my Eye, my literal prophesied soulmate- your turn.” He said and I laughed.

“My voice isn’t any different?!” I questioned and he pretended to bite my nose this time.

“Just do it, cmon.” He said and I giggled.

“Lloyd, Pookie, love of my life, my literal prophesied soulmate.” I said and he hummed.

“I’m going to ignore the fact you used Pearl’s nickname for us.” Lloyd said and I groaned.

“Pearl! I miss my Pookie!” I said and he rolled his eyes.

“This is the only mission you’ve had without her in a whole year!” He argued and I pouted.

“Still.” I said and he shook his head before remembering the egg in his hand. He moved it towards me. I smiled in thanks.

“What you going to do with it?” Lloyd asked and I smiled.

“Send it home.” I opened a mini vortex into the realm its energy has came from but when I went to put the egg through it almost was destroyed and the vortex closed itself in rejection.

“What was what?” Lloyd asked and I looked at him, perplexed.

“It’s not supposed to go home. I think it’s meant to stay with me.” I said and he frowned before looking from the egg to me.

“I don’t think we can really have pets right now.” He said and I looked at him with big eyes.

“But imagine a baby dragon-“ I said and he deadpanned.

“I can imagine. I can also imagine when it turns into this.” He said and Pooch burst to life in front of us and immediately started nosing around the egg. He then nuzzled me the best he could with his giant snout and I held the lower side of his jaw and leant my head next to his eye. He was a gorgeous dragon. Big and full of glory and power. 4 legs and a wingspan of 340ft. He was giant and powerful but such a beautiful dragon. His scales were green and the shades of the colour varied on all parts of his body with Gold accents and highlights also on his body. His red eyes matched Lloyd’s when he wasn’t hiding them behind his normal green and I kissed next to the dragon’s eye.

“See he wants to keep it.” I said and Lloyd rolled his eyes and he pulled his mask on.

“Get on.” He said, fed up but with a playful tint in his voice and I smiled at him before putting the egg into the large satchel I had with me and pulling my mask and hood on. Mine and Lloyd’s gi’s were a little different. Pooch bent down to allow me to climb up his neck to the saddle and Lloyd followed soon after. I leaned against his back as he grabbed the reigns. “Seriously, we don’t need a massive dragon that cant just poof out of existence.” He said and I looked up at him.

“Please?” I said and he rolled his eyes.

Four, three, Ten!

“Wow!” I’d managed to shoot a target right in the middle of the head before it could even pounce at me. I smiled in relief at finally completing this stupid training sequence. Unlike Zane I didn’t have built in targeting system so I had to train mine. “I’ll never get how you do it, Peaches.” Pearl said and I laughed. Supporting me in my inability to hear my own name. Pearl had started going by Pearl instead of her name and it stuck. Cole called her Doll more than anything.

“It’s literally your bow, dickhead.” I said and she shrugged.

“You’re better with it. I just know the basics. Only Zane has ever got this far in the simulator with a bow before.” She said and I shrugged.

“One of us has to train.” I said and she gasped in outrage before nodding.

“True.” She said, immediately giving up her fight and I laughed.

“Heard from Cole yet?” I asked and she shook her head.

“Not since he said there was a massive snow storm they had to pass through- it’s like he knows exactly what to say to me to get me to freak out!” She said and I smiled, raising the bow and shooting at a random target that was launched in the air. It hit it. I was so proud of myself.

“Well, you’d get a vision of it if you knew he was about to die.” I said and she deadpanned.

“Thanks. Now I’m going to be questioning whether that’s a reoccurring nightmare or vision now.” She said and picked up a strawberry from the fruit platter that she had made and eating it.

“Please, the biggest threat to him is Jay’s blabber mouth. Those two will be lucky to come home together and not take separate ways home.” I said and put down the quiver of arrows and the bow and went to grab the katanas.

“Fair enough… what are you going to do with that egg?” She asked and I shrugged. The simulation began and I started slicing through different images as she watched.

“I don’t know… wait till it hatches-!” I said and quickly deflected a laser that was supposed to imitate a real laser shot.

“That was close- anyway! We’re not allowed a puppy because it’s too dangerous for it but a dragon can protect itself!” Pearl suggested and I smiled before blocking another shot and slicing through a target.

“Lloyd already said no but I’ve never been that great at following his orders.” I said and dodged another shot.

“True, true.” She said before pausing. “We’re technically not elemental masters and I’m not even technically a ninja. Well I am but I’m more the medic. I’ve perfected basic ninjitsu but I’d become a flump if I even tried that thing.” She said and the simulation ended giving me a score of 14/15. I nodded. Taking the 90% for now. My form on the last stretch slipped and I know that. “90%! You didn’t even get hit or slip!” Pearl said in outrage for me and I laughed. Panting.

“I got a little sloppy at the end…” I said and stole a piece of fruit from her platter. “You heard from Kai? Heard he was back in Ninjago last months whilst I was away?” I said and she nodded.

“Oh yeah. He’s got a new girlfriend. He’s actually had one for a while surprisingly. It was their 2 year anniversary a couple months ago.” Pearl revealed and my eyes widened.

“That long?!” I questioned and she nodded. “God, I must’ve stopped listening to him too early.” I said and Pearl laughed.

“I also spoke to Skylor! Happier than ever. Enjoying the quiet life. Good for her.” Pearl told me and I nodded in agreement.

“Must be nice.” I said and helped myself to more fruit.

“Girl I’m going to make you a sandwich in a minute-! When was the last time you ate?” She asked and I shrugged.

“A few days ago. I got used to going without food for a few days when I was doing all those tracking down wrong real objects missions.” I said and she nodded.

“I’m ordering takeout then because they never make me pay when I answer the temple door in my gi and mask.” She said and I rolled my eyes.

“Go ahead. Although don’t order me much- I don’t know how much my stomach can handle.” I said and she deadpanned before turning to the fridge.

“Zane’s frozen left overs then.” She said and I laughed.

“Sorry I ruined your binge.” I said and she stared at me.

“It’s okay, you’ll make it up to me when you can stomach things everyday again.” She said and I rolled my eyes.

“But those days you won’t want to do it. You’ll decide it’s ‘my body is a temple’ season.” I said and she looked at me like I was crazy.

“No! That’s Cole’s thing at the moment. Plus I’ve managed to keep the physique! No one can beat me at basic ninjitsu simulator all around.” She said and I laughed.

“What even is that?!” I laughed and Pixal cut in.

“That, title, is to commemorate the fact that Pearl is the only one to complete the standard ninjitsu simulations 40 times.” She sounded exasperated and I smiled.

“Wow, proud of you Pearl.” I said and she smiled.

“Thank you!” She said before putting the now plated frozen food in the microwave. “Anyway! Speaking of anniversaries-“

“That was 2 conversations ago-“

“-Speaking of anniversaries!” She cut me off and I just shook my head in amusement. “How was yours and Lloyd’s? 5 years.” She asked and I smiled.

“Well…”

🪺. *. ⋆

“-but that lead to another dead end. I stopped by to see my Dad and Pearl but Pearl, for once in her life, was actually on a mission-“ Lloyd ranted and I laughed.

“Without me?!” I gasped and he nodded.

“That’s what I thought!” He said and I smiled. “So I check the date and I see that our anniversary is in 2 days!… Sorry, I haven’t got you any flowers or anything- I was kinda focused on just getting here.” He said and I smiled before grabbing his hand.

“I don’t mind. Just you is enough.” I told him and he laughed.

“You sure I’m worth it?” He asked and I nodded without hesitation. “I don’t feel like it sometimes.”

“Of course you are. I wouldn’t put up with all this bullshit if my heart wasn’t full of you and only you.” I told him and he smiled.

“I’ve really missed you.” He admitted and I nodded.

“Missed you too.” I said before taking a deep breath. “This isn’t very happy conversation for an anniversary.” I smiled and he did too but it didn’t have any warm behind it. My face dropped. “What? What is it?” I asked and he sighed and leant back onto his elbows. I was laying on my side and resting on my hand as we both were ontop of this cliff that overlooked the whole forest.

“I-I can’t stay for too long.” He admitted and I felt my eyes drift away.

“I guessed that.” I said and he sighed before pulling me up into a hug and I settled into his chest before he gave up and decided to just move me between his legs so he could have a better grip on me too. Lloyd way of showing love limited itself to touch and the way he looks at you. But I always knew when he needed more than other times.

“I just wish we could find Wu and end this search.” He said and I nodded.

“Me too.” I agreed and rubbed his hand that interlinked with his with my thumb and he nuzzled into my neck. He always said that I smiled nice.

“You smell really good.” There it was.

“I’ve been in forest for a month and showering in waterfalls- I can’t smell good at all.” I said and he chuckled before kissing my neck.

“You smell really good.” He repeated and I rolled my eyes before he buried his face again. “Really good.”

“This is addictive for you, you know this.” I said and he just licked my neck. I laughed before he started kissing my neck as well and I could help but laugh, it tickled. There was a scar along my collarbone from where he had accidentally bit me too hard once. We were deep in a moment like this one and he forgot he had little fangs gifted from his father. Said dangers grazed my skin and I shuddered.

“Somehow, I can’t help myself.” He said and continued until I shoved him off and moved my neck to rest on his shoulder so I was looking up at him. It took him two seconds to kiss me. With one hand still interlinked and I lifted the other to hold his lower jaw.

“Wow… we should do this again some time.” I told him and he laughed.

“Agreed… you’re going to keep that egg, aren’t you?”

“You know I am.” I said and I could feel him roll his eyes before he looked up at the night sky. “Do not start spurting your astrology bullshit at me-“

“That’s the bounty.” He said and I groaned to his amusement. He continued pointing at stars. “That’s the green ninja.”

“That’s just stars! I don’t see shit!” I yelled and he chuckled but continued.

“There you-! Oh! And a dragon!” He began laughing through his sentence as I tried kneeling up to cover his mouth yet he escaped all my attempts to before we were both sent tumbling down the cliff into a clearing. He was laughing his guts out as I breathlessly laughed and clung to him. “I think there’s a thorn in my ass!” He laughed and that caused me to burst out.

“I didn’t think we were that close to the edge!” I said and he nodded.

“Neither did I.” Lloyd said before sitting up. “So… you gonna take me back to your place? Show me where you’ve been staying whilst it’s taken you a month to track down this beast.”

“I wasn’t just tracking the beast! And I’ve been gone for longer than a month! Just everything to do with this forest has taken me a month!” I said in offence and he laughed.

“Oh sure.” He said and I made my way back up to the cliff and grabbed the satchel with egg in before carefully sliding down. “This is a great view.” He said as I climbed back up.

“Shut up.” I said and he just smiled, mischievously before grabbing me when I was almost down and pulling me off causing me to yelp. “The egg! Be careful!” I told him and he just smiled before taking my hand as I led him to my camp.

The camp consisted of a small crater in side of the flat cliff that you had to climb down some vine to get to. When Lloyd saw it he made the rocks shift and move to form stairs. I looked at him gratefully as I led him into the crater that I had covered the front of with vines. He immediately lit one of the candles and then looked at me to say something. Multiple various things were in the crater.

“This is where I’ve been for a month.” I said and he nodded before sitting on the make shift bed as I placed the egg in a pot above what normally is my fire. “A little help please.” I said and moved out the way when he sent a little green fireball to the bottom and it lit up. “I usually use it for cooking but it can house this for now.” I said and he nodded.

“When are you heading back to the monastery?” He asked and I shrugged.

“Soon I guess.” I said and he nodded. “I’m going to check in to that village at the bottom of the forest. See if they need anything and then I’ll go home…. Wow. Home.” I said and he chuckled.

“Been awhile, huh?” He said and I nodded.

“Doesn’t really feel like home anymore though.” I said and he just looked down. “I don’t like sleeping in an empty bed, Lloyd.” I told him and he sighed.

“I had a feelings that’s why you keep going on these stake out missions.” He said and it was my turn to look away.

“It’s… at least I know no one else is supposed to be sleeping next to me.” I said and he nodded.

“No I get it…” Lloyd paused before continuing. “I freaked out when I learned you were here.” He said and I frowned. “I came back to the temple for you and you weren’t there… I got scared.” He admitted and I paused before moving to sit on the makeshift bed with him. He let himself rest his head on my shoulder as I held him and rested my own head atop his.

“What did you do?” I asked, softly and he took a deep breath.

“I immediately got Pixal to send me your mission logs and access your last known locations.” He revealed and I smiled and shook my head at his antics. “From your logs I could figure out where the beast was heading and where the nest would be.” He said and I let out a breathless laugh.

“Oh my god.” I said and I felt him hold me tighter.

“I had this moment where I realised I didn’t know where you were and it really freaked me out because if I didn’t know where you were? How could I come find you if you don’t come back?” He asked and I kissed the top of his head.

“We’ll find him.” I said and he scoffed.

“How can you be so sure?” He asked and I smiled. “Not everyone comes back.” He added and I leaned off him to look at him.

“Because Ninja never quit.” I told him and he looked at me for a second before shaking his head in a startled laugh.

“Did you really just use that on me?” He asked and I shrugged. “Oh wow, you did.” He said before grabbing and pushing me down onto the bed as I laughed. He was on top of me as soon as my back was on the floor and I laughed as he held my hands down. “I can’t believe you.” He said and I laughed.

“Hey I like this position! You always manage to get me into it during training.” I said and he shook his head.

“This is a little different than training.” He said and kissed me. “How long again?” He asked and I smiled.

“Since we’ve seen each other? 5 months? Since we’ve done anything? 9.” I told him and he frowned.

“Well that’s just not good enough, is it?” He said and started kissing me. “How the hell have you held up?” Lloyd asked and I giggled and he nipped at my ear.

“I haven’t.” I told him and his face turned into a devilish expression before…

“Damn you, Peaches.”

🪺. *. ⋆

“Yeah I’d say it went pretty well since we haven’t seen each other in forever.” I told Pearl who nodded.

“How was yours and Cole’s? 3 years. Thats the changing point there. That’s when a relationship becomes for life in this world.” I said and she laughed.

“We missed it.” She admitted and I said nothing. “It’s okay though because we promised to do something when he comes back. He got Pixal to schedule an order of flowers and chocolates though.” She said and I smiled.

“Carnations?” I asked and she nodded.

“A singular pink carnation for everyday he’s been with me and loved me.” Pearl said and I deadpanned.

“You were watching friends with him again, weren’t you?” I asked and she nodded.

“Thankfully he’s not actually like Ross.” She said and I hummed.

“Joey, maybe.” I said and she placed the microwaved food in front of me and I smiled in thanks.

“Have you spoken to Garmadon yet?” Pearl asked and I shook my head.

“No I’m going to straight after this I just needed a moment to process that I’m home.” I said and she looked at me with understanding.

“Are you doing okay?” She asked and I shrugged.

“It is what it is.” I said and she smiled. “Is everything completely wrong and not normal? Yes. Can I do anything about it? No. So it’s just dealing with it, step by step.” I said and she nodded.

“I get it. I just wish I had more to do sometimes.” She said and I smiled.

“You will. Garmadon not got you training the monks? Since you’re so good at standard ninjutsu?” I asked and she rolled her eyes.

“Garmadon lets me get up late nowadays.” She said and I chuckled. “He’s actually not doing so well… I can see it in his eyes.” Pearl admitted and I looked up concerned.

“Misako still isn’t telling him anything, is she?” I asked and Pearl shook her head. “Her search for Wu is probably as successful as her search for a way to stop the ultimate battle… it wouldn’t be the first time she’s left her family.” I said and Pearl’s eyes widened.

“He cheered up a bit after Lloyd came and saw him… granted I didn’t know he had visited until after but- he has been better.” Pearl said and I smiled.

“That’s probably my cue to go see him, isn’t it?” I asked and she nodded.

“Yeah…” She said and I stood up and bushed the bowl towards her. “You barely ate anything.”

“Thank you.” I said and moved towards the doors that led to the rest of the monastery.

I walked through the halls steadily, with a heavy heart. Seeing how tall some of the young monks had grown in only a couple of months was tugging the strings on my heart. I successfully disrupted a meditation class by walking past the room and waving. When I finally got to the living quarters of the monastery, I knocked on the door of the ‘office’ area which consisted of two arm chairs and a desk with a few scrolls on and a coffee table with a tray of tea on.

“Come in.” I heard his voice and smiled. I pushed open the door and was greeted with a pleasantly surprised man. “Well if it isn’t my star pupil!”

“Miss me?” I asked and he nodded.

“Yes, come, sit.” He gestured over and I gave him a genuine smile as I got comfy on the arm chair and made a little dramatic out of it.

“This is so much better than the forest floor.” I said and he chuckled.

“Never forget where you began, nature’s child.” He said and I laughed.

“Yes, sensei.” I said and he smiled.

“So, tell me of your adventures.” He told me and I sat up and leant over the arm of the chair to talk to him.

“I spent 5 months sleeping on the ground.” I said and he smiled. “Pearl joined me on some of the things I was doing so I wasn’t alone for the whole time but I would’ve been on my own for the last 2 months if Lloyd hadn’t of visited me and helped me to get this dragon egg.” I said and Garmadon lit up at the mention of his son.

“Lloyd came and saw you?” He asked and I nodded.

“Yeah, we spent a few days together over our anniversary and last I heard he was heading towards Ninjago city.” I told Garmadon who nodded.

“Do go on.” He told me and I smiled.

“The dragon egg doesn’t want to go home so I think I’m going to keep it.” I said and Garmadon chuckled.

“Of course you are.” He said and I smiled at the similar response to his son.

“Have any of the others came back?” I asked and his expression dimmed.

“Kai and Zane were here not too long ago but other than that, no one has really been back. Lloyd was here a while ago but I assume that was before he came to see you.” Garmadon said and I nodded.

“He did say he had been.” I affirmed. “Heard anything from Misako.” I asked and he shook his head.

“No.” He sighed. “I’m afraid Misako won’t contact any of us unless she needs to. Whenever she goes on her own journeys, she does it completely alone.” Garmadon said and I nodded.

“Lloyd’s like that… it’s frustrating to be honest.” I admitted and he nodded.

“I am well aware.” He told me and I we shared an empathetic stare. Me and Garmadon were very similar in some parts of our character. I’d always taken better to him than I had Wu. I had met Lloyd not long after he turned older. We met at Mystake’s tea shop. Pearl had wanted to try all these different teas for her birthday and I bought a selection from Mystake as my present to her. I was nervous and didn’t know what I was even talking about. He had asked me what my favourite tea was and I said green with no hesitation even though I had never had it. He looked smug and said that was his favourite too. Before I knew it, I was on the dark island with him and it was where we had our first everything. Everything. I smiled at the memories.

“You know it’s not your fault.” I said to him, I was referring to Misako leaving and Lloyd being Lloyd.

“After being alone for so long, a man begins to wonder if the reason he is left behind is simply himself. I am not the man who wonders but I am the father who wishes he could’ve done more.” Garmadon told me and I took a deep breath.

“Being trapped in an underworld can prevent such things… like being involved in your child’s life. Or knowing he exists. Lloyd doesn’t blame you and his anger is not pointed towards you.” I reassured and Garmadon looked ahead, the desperation in eyes made me feel sick. “Lloyd’s angry at Misako. He struggles with the fact that she left him,… twice now. He cried after telling me he doesn’t understand how to accept her and how he feels so guilty because of it since almost everyone on the team is practically parentless or can only rarely see them.” I said and Garmadon and nodded.

“We’ve had a similar conversation.” He admitted and my eyes widened. “Lloyd’s emotion are that of a dragon. Unpredictable and fierce. The amount of control he has over them, especially for his age, in itself is impressive. The same could be said for you.” He told me and I frowned.

“My life hasn’t been nearly that complex.” I said and he looked to me.

“Even after the dragon has soared over and conquered the world, it doesn’t forget its time in its shell.” Garmadon told me and I frowned. “You need not explain yourself, nor comfort me.” Garmadon told me and looked at him unsurely. “Your mere presence in my son’s life brings me comfort. He trusts no one like he trusts you, my daughter.” He said and I smiled, genuinely. The nickname from my father in law had been established early on and I loved it.

“There’s nothing that means more to me than him.” I assured and Garmadon nodded.

“Then you are lucky that this sentiment is reciprocated.” I smiled and nodded in thanks.

Because it’s true, I love Lloyd Garmadon like no one else could. Because there is truly no other person I could ever be with. In this realm or any other.

[ivebeencursedbygays]

Kai: But when all hope seemed lost, I had an epiphany! 

Kai, earlier: I'm going to throw myself into the sea.

Zane: Kai, you can do anything! 

Kai: Anything? 

Zane: Anything! 

Kai, holding a torch: ANYTHING?!?! 

Zane: Wait, not that!

Cole: Guess who just found out the difference between wax paper and parchment paper the hard way? 

Nya: Wait, what’s the difference? 

Cole: One you can use in the oven safely, and the other you can also use in the oven... if the thing you are trying to make happens to be fire.

Kai: Time sensitive question how flirt boy. 

Pixal: Throw rocks at he. 

Cole: Hot Dogs. 

Morro: Kill him. 

Kai: Thanks guys.

Nya: Clownery. Tomfoolery. Absolute fuckery, I am going to revoke your life privileges.

Pixal: You use emojis like a straight person. 

Kai: That’s literally the worst thing anyone has ever said about me.

Kai: Hey, random question, what are your favorite flowers? 

Jay: Peonies, why? 

Kai: 

Jay: Were you going to get me flowers? 

Kai: 

Jay: 

Kai: ᶦᵗ’ˢ ᵃ ᵖᵒˢˢᶦᵇᶦˡᶦᵗʸ

Jay: Wow, that was quick thinking on that phony sacrifice stuff. 

Nya: Oh, that was all real. 

Jay: Wait, you were trying to help them kill us?! 

Nya: If I’m gonna be sacrificed, I’m gonna do it right.

*The gang is about to do something dangerous* 

Cole: Shouldn’t someone give a pep talk? 

Kai: Go ahead. 

Cole: Be careful. 

Cole: Don’t die. 

Pixal: *Holds back a laugh* 

Kai: Great. We’re all bloody inspired.

Jay: FIGHT ME, YOU NERD ASS SLUT! 

Cole: At least try to sound slightly more sophisticated when you threaten someone. 

Jay: Oh, I'm sorry. I should ask; dost thou want to engage in a duel, my good bitch? 

Cole: Somehow that's worse.

Kai: I can’t believe my birth certificate says F... 

Kai: ...How did I fail being born?

Cole: Look at me straight in the eyes and tell me the truth, Zane! 

Zane: You can’t expect me to look into your eyes and be straight.

Pixal: You were wise to seek help from the world's most deadly weapon. 

Pixal: It's me.

Cole, in a room with Jay, Kai, and Nya: It’s calm in here. 

Cole: It scares me…

Nya: Fight me! 

Kai, standing behind them and holding a knife: *mouths* Do not.

Zane: Nya got into a fight. 

Kai: That’s bad. 

Kai: 

Kai: Did she win?

Cole: Jay, I don’t think I can handle any more of your tomfuckery. 

Jay: Oh yeah? Well I can keep going until you’re all tomfuckered out!

Kai: Is that a gun?! 

Jay: It's not what it looks like! 

Kai: It looks like a gun! 

Jay: Okay, maybe it is what it looks like, but in my defense, it doesn't have anymore bullets, so I technically can't shoot it anymore. 

Kai: ...ANYMORE?!

Kai, to the Squad: I’d die for you. 

Jay: Then perish. 

Pixal: You will. 

Nya: Please don’t. 

Cole: Cool. 

Zane: I’d die for you first.

Nya: If you got arrested what would be the charges? 

Jay: Theft. 

Zane: Disturbing the peace. 

Cole: Aggravated assault. 

Kai: Arson. 

Pixal: All of the above. In that order, probably.

Nya: You know what I asked Santa for Christmas this year? 

Jay: If you say me, I swear I’ll— 

Nya: You? What? No, I asked him for that cool Ninjago Lego set we saw in Target!

Cole, texting Zane: Zane there’s a moth on the outside of the bathroom door can you get rid of it? 

Cole: Pls hurry because I’m going to cry 

Cole: Zane 

Cole: Zane 

Zane: Zane is dead. You’re next. Love, Moth.

Pixal: A sprite is anything not static. 

Jay: A sprite is a variable object, be it 2d or 3d. 

Cole: A sprite is a fucking soda. 

Cole: You god damn geekass bastards.

Kai: *sighs* I have no friends... 

Jay: 

Jay: *coughs* Bitch, what am I? A roach?!

Zane: *tapping fingers on table* 

Cole: *taps fingers back furiously* 

Jay: …What’s going on? 

Pixal: Morse code. They’re talking. 

Zane: -.-- ..- .-. / - …. . / -.-. ..- - . … - 

Cole: *slams hands on table* YOU TAKE THAT BACK!

Jay: *finds half a watermelon at Whole Foods* 

Jay, holding it up for everyone to see: LIES!

Kai: Don't break someone's heart, they only have one. 

Nya: Break one of their bones instead, they have 206 of them.

Kai, singing: I don’t want a lot for Christmas, there is just one thing I need— 

Zane: A family. 

Cole: A better love life. 

Nya: Mental stability. 

Pixal: *clueless* Bagels?

Zane: Don't joke about murder. I was murdered once and it offends me.

Jay: I'm sorry. Please talk to me. 

Kai: 

Jay: Hello? World's most amazing person?? Sweet pea? Precious cinnamon roll that's too good for this world, too pure? 

Kai: 'Sorry' doesn't bring back my fucking M&Ms.

Nya: You think that’s cringe? Moms around the world wait 9 months just to end up naming their kid Jay. 

Jay: Hey, fuck you.

Jay: Of course I have a lot of pent-up rage, you fool! I've been the same height since I was twelve!

Pixal: Why is Kai crying? 

Zane: They saw a leaf on the sidewalk and- 

Kai: IT LOOKED SO CRUNCHY! 

Pixal: Please don’t say what I think you’re gonna say- 

Kai: AND WHEN I STEPPED ON IT THERE WAS NO CRUNCH! 

Pixal: NO, NOT THAT!

Zane: Hey, what have you two been up to? 

Nya: We were helping Kai write his vows, but he kicked us out because Cole was making inappropriate suggestions. 

Cole: How is “Jay, I love your sweet ass” inappropriate?

Summary: Morro and Nya lose control.

Warnings: Bad pacing (?), author was running out of ideas

Prompt: Record | "Hurry!"

Extra: I watched Seabound, now you guys get my take on Morro and Nya's powers going haywire in Episode 1. Set in a generic "Revived Morro Lives With the Ninja" AU during, you guessed it, Season 14, Episode 1.

Morro sat on the edge of the flat top of the canyon. Gusts ruffled his hair playfully, the whistling winds below him of which the canyon was named after told him it was okay.

He leaned back, palms dug into the reddish dust as he exhaled calmly. He and Pixal were working on a new mech, and in trying to deliver her a tool he ended up launching it through a sheet of metal like a bullet. They were both shocked, and Morro refrained from using his abilities until he left the workshop.

He tried doing katas and practicing stances, but that just ended with the breeze violently picking up and whatever nearby that wasn't fied or nailed down getting flung about.

He hid as the Ninja returned, and went to the Whistling Canyons.

The winds shifted around something, and a soft clicking of wooden sandals let Morro know that his sensei was arriving.

"I heard from Pixal that you have been struggling with control of your powers," the sensei said as he carefully set himself down.

"I'm not struggling, it's just-" the teen groaned. "The wind refuses to listen to me. I can hear it perfectly fine, but it doesn't seem to hear me."

"Nya is having similar issues," Wu admitted.

"Water Ninja? I guess that makes sense, our elements are the most connected so if one is going haywire the other would as well," Morro mused.

"But, do you know why your powers may be going out of control?"

"If I did, I would've solved the problem already."

Wu hoisted himself up, a few joints like out a crack in protest.

"Well, I believe you have been sitting out here long enough, let us head back to the monastery now," he said as he turned, his cloak whipped around as the gusts messed with the beige fabric.

Wu's first student gazed out to the winding canyons before he rose and followed suit.

"AAAAAAAAAAA! THE TOILET EXPLODED AGAIN!" Jay shrieked from the bathroom.

Nya was seen rushing away from that area, only to pass the kitchen and break the faucet there.

"I'm comin', Jay!" Cole exclaimed as he charged towards the bathroom, mop in hand.

"Hurry!" They Lightning Elemental yelled.

Morro grimaced, the winds swirled harsher as he did so.

Realizing this, he quickly took a few calming breaths, attempting to tamp down his emotions before they ripped the monastery from atop the mountain. The gusts settled to a nice breeze, and he sighed in quick relief.

As the sound of soda bottles getting launched about, Morro almost ran into Nya as she panickedly ran away from the gaming room.

"For the record, I'm fine, and this is perfectly normal!" she angrily shouted before beating a wooden log with a near sloppy stance due to raging emotions. The hose spritzed water aggressively in tune with her hits.

The breeze picked up again as Morro tried to stop the hose from spraying him, but only succeeded in getting a rude blast to the face.

"ENOUGH!" he bellowed, anything movable was blown, Nya herself getting tossed a few feet into the air before Morro calmed himself and dropped everything, catching Nya so she wouldn't land painfully.

"Sorry," he mumbled before jerkily letting go of her.

Hi so do you have HC for Zanes limits in his robot body? he's powered by the aurora unite but he still NEEDS to sleep or eat? Or are all the human things he does because he was taught and truly believed he was human? For example if he doesn't eat for a long while will he feel hunger or feeling starved even if he doesn't have to eat? Or will his body have changes like eyebags if he doesn't sleep for a longer period? And will he have new limits in his new body? Would someone be able to build robots in Zanes design even if he has only been scanned and not without the blueprints? And is Zanes gift to Jay's Birthday (the book about himself) going to be relevant in the future?

he's powered by the aurora unite but he still NEEDS to sleep or eat? Or are all the human things he does because he was taught and truly believed he was human?: In his original body, he was programmed to have the sensation of needing to eat/sleep in order to imitate human patterns, but even before the Aurora Unit he never actually needed it so long as he could be hooked up to and/or charged via a different source of power. Sleeping would help conserve power; eating would help maintain it, but neither were ever actually required. It actually kind of works similarly to how eating/sleeping helps "recharge" Jay, just not to the same extent.

In his Titanium body, I do have the HC that Zane and/or Pixal were never quite able to recreate such fine-tuned sensations, even after studying all of their fathers' work, so post-s4 Zane's sense of taste is much weaker than before and that's related to why he doesn't cook as much from that point on.

....Zane with eyebags technically isn't a thing that can happen but by gum I want this now. Suspension of disbelief?!

And will he have new limits in his new body?: Only until Season 5, he has a small personal crisis at some point and all available mechanics work to try and fine-tune him up to his original body, with a few upgrades/changes. The handbook Jay has does comes in play here, though the book itself does have extra significance before this point as well.

Can't talk too much about it though cuz then we have to talk about Pixal, and Pixal is kind of a giant walking spoiler SO—

Would someone be able to build robots in Zanes design even if he has only been scanned and not without the blueprints?: They would be able to copy the body parts/structure via scan, but without the schematics for the Aurora Unit itself (or an Aurora Unit already built), and the necessary energy required to power it, then it wouldn't be able to work as designed. ...hence why the Shark Army was interested in Julien's work to make an attempt to replicate it (which comes back into play in S2), and leads to why the antagonist of S3 uses aspects of Pixal to try and make up the difference with the majority of the Nindroid Army.

#LISTEN a lot of this ties into season 3 so i am being somewhat vague on purpose #but let's just say original!zane hits closer to human traits than titanium!zane does #...which again makes zane kind of have a crisis later #zane julien #pixal borg #info tag #book 4 #book 5

[thepeanutbutterwizard]

Hi.What reactions ninja will have to Tiger Widow stuff in Skybound?Will the encounter with one make Nya remember her true potential or is it just "oh,those can make good food" reaction from Underworld duo?

Skybound is one of the seasons where I have a vague idea of what will happen, but not a whole lot nailed down. Like in cannon a few people have been captured already, and on top of that I think I'm going to have everyone split into two teams almost immediately, after the Lantern Memorial but before Nya actually makes it back to Ninjago.

I have no idea who's already been captured at this point, and other than probably Lloyd being the first family member Nya finds, I'm not sure how everyone is going to be split up, or which group will be doing what.

All this to say, I'm not entirely sure who'se going to be going to Tiger Widow Island, so I'll just list all of the Main cast and what they would be doing if they end up going there

Jay: Doing him first to say that if Jay makes it this far he doesn't get sent after the venom solo bc if he still makes the wishes for money and a big house he doesn't hide it from everyone else bc he has no interest in Nya in VT and a wish for money and a house would be for his parents bc they're not getting any younger and Jay's worried about them. No motivation to lie -> no liar revealed fallout.

Nya: If she doesn't have much of her memory back, she's taking one look at the Tiger Widow, thinking 'hell yeah, lunchtime!' since Tiger Widow is probably her favorite food, and charging. If she does have more of her memory back, then she's a lot more cautious; not for her sake tho.

Lloyd: He all but superglued himself to Nya once they reunited, so he's clinging to her back while she's doing whatever she's doing, whether that's on Tiger Widow Island or not. He would think it's really cool to finally see a Tiger Widow after hearing his dad and sister talk about hunting them, and he's also really glad he's still kinda stuck in his Dragon form bc holy shit they were downplaying how freaky and dangerous Tiger Widows are.

Garm: While answering this ask the image of Garm chokeslamming Nadakhan through a brick wall popped into my head, and now I have a bit of an actual plan for what happens to him, so thank you for that! He is going to be captured by this point; Nadakhan targets him first bc he's the biggest threat to his plans, and also bc Garm's a grieving father who desperately misses his daughter, so he has a glaring weak spot to exploit. But as soon as Nadakhan tries use Garm wanting Nya back to manipulate him, the Oni snaps, going from super depressed to super pissed in .02 seconds. Its been awhile since I've seen Skybound (its my least favorite season despite how much I Love fictional pirates) and I don't remember when/where the lava lamp of doom Sword came from, or how it worked (didn't he like, need them to wish themselves into the sword or something? or did he just like fucking with them?) so lets just pretend that there would be nothing preventing Nadakhan from immediately trapping Garm, he just tried getting him to make wishes for fun and made it two sentences into his 'wish it all away' pitch before nearly dying

Misako: Nothing really phases her anymore, so she just kinda shrugs off the giant spiders. If she's the only parent there she insists on being the one to milk the Tiger Widow. If she's not the only parent she initiates the game of rock paper scissors to decide who's going in.

Ray: Absolutely hates spiders, they gross him out, but if he's the only parent he also insists on being the one to collect the venom.

Maya: Actually kinda excited to see the Tiger Widow. Again, insists on being the one to collect the venom if she's the only parent. And if she isn't the only parent, she grabs the other parents and drags them with her to get the venom as a team.

Kai: If Kai doesn't know that Nya is back, he's laser focused on getting the venom. He and Pixal actually start planning on using the venom to weaken Nadakhan so they can wish for Nya back without him twisting their wish to help him. If he does know that Nya's back, he's more focused on helping her than anything else.

Pixal: Pretty much the same as Kai.

Morro: He would nominate Jay as the one to get the venom, but would probably choose to be the one to get it.

Zane: Would volunteer to get the venom. If I go with Oppo, he's also picked up on the fact that Kai is planning something and he's keeping a concerned eye on him. If I don't go with Oppo, than Zane has turned his emotions way down, which means he would try and insist that he be the one to get the venom, as he's rebuildable and therefore the most logical choice.

Cole: Other than not being mad at Jay, unless I go with Lava the only thing that changes for Cole is him not being a ghost. If I go with Lava than he's the one who picks up on Kai planning something and is keeping a concerned eye on him.

...

I think that's everyone

Who's you're favorite character on the show and why?

Lloyd because I have ‘constantly drawn to the protagonist’ syndrome and he in particular is one heck of a character asdfghj

...but y’know what I’mma use this soap box to rant and rave about Jay because while he’s never quite been in the top spot for me he’s constantly battling for second place and constantly winning and that’s because there’s so MUCH of his character that has gone untapped and it is a CRIME

He’s hilarious! The way he can turn tragedies into comedies is amazing! And an important skill people are too quick to write off as ‘annoying’! You don’t realize how much you need some lighter moments to balance out the heavy when all you ever get are heavy moments one after another! He’s the breath of fresh air in the middle of a storm! The moment of calm between one wave and the next! The room to clear your head in the middle of turmoil before throwing yourself right back into it! Just laugh sometimes, baby!!! You’ll feel better!

He’s a genius! He’s been messing with metal parts and tinkering things together since way before he was even a ninja! He’s smart and the show likes to remind us of that fact but then never actually allows him to be! They gave all his tech smarts to Nya and then whatever was leftover to Pixal! And that’s not even going into how clever he can be sometimes, with the way he utilizes his powers or getting himself out of tricky situations when he’s by himself! And even when he’s currently the butt of the jokes or the target of ridicule, he’s STILL coming in clutch for others even when they haven’t been entirely good to him! He deserves to be a bit bitter bastard every now and then but that’s never the entirety of his character either!

He never gets time to shine and when he does he’s KILLING IT. The heights of Skybound are when Jay’s taking action, making moves, and standing his ground on his beliefs (even if sometimes they’re not the best decisions for the moment, at least he’s got the guts to try and I respect that). And I’m still so angry that so much of his NS12 focus got shuffled into just a few shorts instead of dedicated episodes when they would’ve helped make for a far better coherent plot FILL ME WITH FURY! The first four eps of that season are so FLAT until he comes back into play...and then you watch those shorts and go ‘whoa! Him and Nya doing stuff!’ ‘Whoa! He’s recognized as a cool ninja!’ ‘Whoa! Look at him doing cool stuff and impressing that Scott guy!’ And don’t even get me started on Superstar Rockin’ Jay hnnng we didn’t deserve him 

He got Spinjitzu first! He snagged the girl on the first try despite the odds! He can fly! He can build espresso machines! He’s always making people smile! He’s unapologetically himself (eventually)! He’s a clever fighter! He’s witty and silly and fun! He’s sensitive and loves his friends and family a lot! He can lead a team with insane coordination when he needs to! He can look torture and abandonment straight in the eye and lose everyone he ever cared about one by one by one by one by one and be beaten within an inch of his life twice and still pick himself off the ground and find a way to fight to his victory! He’s like a swiss army knife painted blue and charged with electricity! He’s ingenuity personified and I love him. 

When Nadakhan said ‘you’re stronger than you look’ it was like being smacked in the face because he was right and no one ever really realized until then, but also because that was precisely what would ultimately be the genie’s downfall and I was rooting 100% for Jay ever since man *-*)9

i love jay

[spicyicymeloncat]

Okay I haven’t posted in a while so have a ginormous Ninjago sleep headcanon post that I started writing months ago lol

(I originally wrote this in the notes app so apologies if it’s formatted awfully)

- Wu has all their ninja outfits commissioned and actually commissioned their pyjamas as well as a house warming gift at the bounty in s1 as most of their clothes were burnt with the monastery

- Nindroid can dream depending on their programming but it’s usually when they’ve left some programs on before powering down. They can prevent dreaming by properly closing programs before sleep.

- Zane

- Zane is little worse at doing this than Pixal because 1) he still spent a portion of his life not knowing he was a robot 2) he downloads lots of movies and documentaries which he’ll leave running 3) he usually stays up late training/learning and will accidentally fall asleep and leave these programs running

- He’ll have the weirdest dreams because of it. Like he will find himself as the main character of the movie he last downloaded, in the midst of a crime scene, a rainforest or within his memories. At this point, there’s a 50% chance he’ll remember he’s dreaming and will just go along with it, and sometimes he’ll completely believe the dream

- When he does this he’ll probably wake up tired

- He has an internal timer that wakes up at the same time everyday, so he’s usually up consistently. If he was dreaming, it takes him a second to just stare into space and remember where he is

- His prophetic dream ability is probably inherited from the former ice elemental alongside the powers and it takes the form of a hidden program zane can’t access. It’ll usually block Zane’s wake up alarm so the only time Zane will sleep in is when he gets a prophetic dream. If Zane isn’t up then he’s almost impossible to wake, and the other Ninja will make bets on what he dreamt about

- Zane sleeps like a brick either way, and can’t be woken up by the other ninja unless he senses some form of danger which in that case he’s fully alert

- Zane reads books before bed

- Zane in s1 didn’t really know about him being a robot so he would just wake up at random times in the night (to eat deli meat)

- When Zane found out he was a robot he somehow convinced himself that he didn’t dream because he had a weird preconceived notion of what robots were (explaining that one scene in s2)

- Zane likes to sleep like humans do so he charges a power bank in the day and uses it at night (he doesn’t have to use this often though, as long as he sits still he can slowly regain energy, and he can also burn food as fuel, which is why he ate out the fridge at night in s1)

- Pixal

- She wasn’t able to dream in her old body because she was connected to an online power source and didn’t need sleep but in her new body she needs to charge and as a result can dream

- She does not experience dreaming often because she takes care of herself and closes unused programs

- However not in s9, s11 etc because she would accidentally leave videos of her loved ones on (Zane and Cyrus) because she misses them

- She goes to bed and wakes up at the exact same time every night and day

- She couldn’t sleep inside Zane’s head but she would try to close any of his unused programs. She wasn’t too enthusiastic to watch Zane struggle through a documentary about the life cycle of worms

- Pixal sleeps in her samurai armour. She also sleeps/powers down standing. She went to a bed in s11 because she felt like she would fall over in the night if she thought about Zane disappearing

- Sometimes Pixal does night shifts as samurai x.

- Wu got her matching pyjamas. She does not wear them

- When she gets home she might find people sleeping in random places (Zane) and just picks them up and carries them to their rooms

- Kai

- Didn’t like sleep. In seasons 1-4 he’d sleep late due to training and wake up early for the same reason

- When his parents left they left in the middle of the night. Kai was 4 years old and woke up in pitch darkness only to find that no one was home. He stayed up til the morning. In the present he’s still a little worried that he’ll one day wake up and everyone would leave him, although he’s gotten better

- His solution was to just never sleep, and instead train so he could be better to protect his family. (I mean we can see this in the pilot when he was still awake on his first night at the monastery and when he woke to find Nya)

- Everyone else kept trying to make him sleep more, Wu telling him he’d need his strength, Cole and Jay telling that him training and talking to himself at 1am was annoying

- It was only when Lloyd joined and had repetitive nightmares about the serpentine, pythor and his father that Kai started to work towards a healthier sleep schedule

- Kai, due to being the lightest sleeper on the team, would wake up and go to Lloyd’s room to begrudgingly calm him down, to which Lloyd would ask him not to leave, and Kai would fall asleep on a chair or on the floor next to Lloyd’s bed

- Kai had much more of a healthy sleep schedule since s4 when the team reunited, learning the glory of sleeping in.

- Despite being a light sleeper, Kai is one of the groggier on the team, practically living off of coffee (which they hide from Wu lol). A real nightmare in mornings, so it’s a good thing he takes so long fixing his hair and washing, so he can shake off his tiredness

- Nya

- is a lot like Kai in that she sleeps late

- She used to sneak out at night to work on her mechs and still does when she’s building

- However she’s always trying to sleep in and is another regular caffeine drinker

- She and Kai don’t really dream

- One of her least favourite things about becoming a ninja was Wu forcing her to wear the matching pyjamas and everyone else encouraging this/hj

- She doesn’t have as long as a morning routine as Kai, she just goes straight into work grumpy af

- Sometimes when she’s worried or stressed she’ll have trouble sleeping and just get up and work on something she’s making

- That’s how she got through the group splitting in s4, by working on the bounty

- She hates sleeping alone and when she was little she would sneak into Kai’s bedroom and curl up next to him

- However as they grew into teens, her desire to be more independent, she tried to steer away and jumped at the chance of getting her own room in the bounty

- She only started to be more vulnerable after s6 and s7, sometimes sneaking into Jay’s or Kai’s or really any of the other older ninja/Pixal to cuddle

- She falls asleep really quick when she’s calm

- Jay

- Jay also sneaks into Nya’s room to cuddle

- Jay has a tier list of who’s the best person to sleep on top of (Jay will dive into someone’s lap and lie there like a cat)

- Nya is at top because she has to be (secretly she’s second to Cole because he’s incredibly cuddly and chill but we let Nya dream, anyways she’s also very cuddly)

- Then it’s Zane because he’s gentle and will adjust himself, however you’d have to bring a cushion because he is made of metal

- Lloyd and Kai tie because they move around a lot and generally feel a bit awkward

- Jay has tried to sleep on Pixal but she stood up and he fell on the floor. She didn’t even say sorry (fair)

- Jay will always tell people about his dreams. Unless he dreams about s6 because he’s repressing those memories

- The main side effect of travelling through a lost timeline is that he’ll have very vivid dreams of specifically that timeline, both of events he lived through and events that would have happened

- Sometimes he’ll have nightmares about injuring his eye and he’ll wake up and momentarily be blind in one eye, although it’s just his tired mind.

- It’s like a phantom reality

- Nya also experiences this

- Jay still sleeps with mr cuddlywumps because yes

- Remember in one of the s1 shorts when he was cuddling the nunchucks of lightening? It’s canon he has to sleep holding something

- On top of wu’s pyjamas, Jay’s parents make him pyjamas and then they made pyjamas for the other ninja. (Pixal wears the top overtop of her suit)

- Jay goes to bed early because he’s tired of everything (see s7 ep 1). He also gets up and a normal ish time

- He’s what they call a morning person, an early jay gets the worm

- He also is much better at snapping out of his sleepiness. He gets cranky late at night tho (so when Kai insists on training at home midnight he’ll throw the nearest object at him)

- Cole

- Cole used to be the least touchy person on the team, trying to maintain the stoic stony image, especially after Lilly’s death, but as he spent more time with the ninja, he became the most kinetic. He and Jay are probably the most touchy people of the group now so that’s why (secretly) he’s top of Jay’s cuddle list

- Tbh he’s the top of everyone’s cuddle list

- And he very much enjoys it since after he became not a ghost because he missed having physicality, and it reminded him he wasn’t forgotten

- Sleep feels very different as a ghost, it’s cold as if the wind cuts right through you, and because most of being a ghost is people’s soul, ghosts tend to disappear when they sleep. Also ghosts don’t need sleep so generally it’s a negative experience. Cole spent a few lonely nights staying awake and was terrified of falling asleep in fear of disappearing for real

- After becoming physical again he collapsed for some much needed rest

- Cole usually goes to bed at a normal time but he’s not too consistent

- And he more often than not lays in

- If he has a bad night or gets woken up he will be incredibly grumpy for a good portion of the day (see s11)

- Cole dreams the usual amount nothing remarkable. He’ll usually get confused by them

- On a long day he will lie down where ever and just pass out. Again he’s cuddle material

- Sometimes however others will be much more sleepier and so he stays up to make sure they get to bed. Like Pixal he’ll carry them to their rooms before passing out on the last one’s bed

- Cole’s mother, when she was well, used to tell him bedtime stories of her adventures. This inadvertently caused his fear of dragons as she told him the story of grief bringer (although it was told from her perspective and differently so that he didn’t remember it in s13)

- Cole doesn’t really like sleeping alone because if reminded him of the times he left both his father after his mother died, and the ninja when Zane died, so when they got they’re own rooms at the monastery he had manage to chat with someone else in someone else’s room before falling asleep there

- Eventually he started sleeping in his own room after he started feeling comfortable

- He still leaves his door open which annoys Jay and Kai greatly because he snores. Nya, Zane and Lloyd find it calming though

- Lloyd

- Poor Lloyd. He’s lived through so much nightmare fuel where to even begin

- When he was left at darkley’s he’d have dreams of his parents abandoning him. He’s wake up and sometimes he thought he saw the shadow of his father

- He was also bullied for not being able to sleep

- Then when he ran away he had to sleep outside in the cold

- When he joined the ninja he’d dream about pythor every night. Sometimes Wu would wake up to comfort him, but Kai was more likely (because Kai didn’t sleep)

- Kai once made a sarcastic comment about Lloyd’s nightmares before back pedalling hard because Lloyd started tearing up

- Wu used to read him bed time stories in s1

- In s2 Lloyd read a chapter of his comic books before bed

- The nightmares of Garmadon leaving him restarted after s1

- Lloyd continued to have dreams of the final battle long after it happened.

- Lloyd dreams about Zane’s death, Garmadon’s death and everyone else somehow dying as well as Morro I’m sorry

- I think it’s cuz Lloyd’s mind is very hyperactive (also he has so much nightmare fuel)

- Lloyd has trouble getting to sleep, but it’s a bit better if someone’s there with him.

- S7 Lloyd training to be a master, stayed up late worrying too much, and since everyone else was a little preoccupied with their own thing he didn’t want to disturb them

- Lloyd isn’t a very touchy person especially since s5. He probably would like to cuddle with others but his need to maintain the image of the strong green ninja always stopped him. Also he was kinda afraid of touching Cole when he was a ghost and he felt bad

- To accommodate for this the ninja would rope him into group hugs or just chilling together in the sitting room. That’s how Lloyd falls asleep the best

- Lloyd would stay up really late and sometimes fall asleep on missions if he’s had a bad night. They just take him home

- The ninja would usually nag him to sleep more and whenever Kai does it Lloyd just goes “the hypocrisy”

- Lloyd still struggles with sleep but he’s more used to it since s11

- Since s10 sometimes he has weird floaty dreams about the fsm but they don’t make sense

- The ninja and wu all had ways of helping Lloyd sleep during s2: Kai would always wake in the night to check on him, Zane would heat milk when he’s had a bad day, Jay tried sewing a plush (cuz that helped Jay sleep so maybe Lloyd might also find it helpful, Cole and Wu would tell bed time stories (Cole’s stories are a little intense so Wu usually ushers him out), however Cole cheers him up in the mornings when Lloyd has nightmares, Nya also made Lloyd nightlights and room decorations

- Sometimes after recovering from a season finale, the group for various reasons find it hard to sleep so they throw a slumber party (that Wu allows as a treat).

- It involves snack, movies and so many blankets

Welcome to the New Realm

Okay I'm having fun with this so have what I am writing out

Ladies Gents and the They Thems or whichever pronouns you prefer I present to you the Realm 14 Borg Siblings meeting their Counterparts!

But honestly writing 2 Cyrus's is a trip ngl

.

.

Their Dad's sat in front them, one had a contraption on his legs rather then the usual wheelchair, he was leaned on the desk,

"Okay now that we have over 30 kids let's go down the list to make sure everybody is here" the Cyrus in the wheelchair said

"okay we definitely need name tags" Victoria and Violet muttered at the same time,making the others snort

"I'm Realm 15 Cyrus" he tapped a number on his Lapel"We already came up with this to identify who is who, also the 14th Realm Cyrus has his exo skeleton"

The other waved,.actually pushing off the desk and standing up using a cane

"I built this as an alternative to my wheelchair I just need a cane to keep balance, I just use the wheelchair when they are charging,"

They nodded as his counterpart looked to him,

"Just alert if and when you do need a wheelchair I'm pretty sure my spare would work for you"

"Thank you"

Cyrus 15 nodded and looked back to them, looking at the clipboard,

"It shouldn't be too hard to identify who's who's with us. Siblings I think Quixie Harriet and then Simone, Jennifer and Pixal are the duplicates, but even they have differences," Freida said logically,

"I'm pretty sure I am not like I was years ago a fashionista princess" Simone snorted side, eyeing her counterpart, who was redoing her lipstick and make-up,

She closed the compact, meeting her counterparts optics with an incredulous look,

" But if you're not doing fashion darling, then what are you doing?" She scoffed,"probably ended up on the corner,"

Simone broke out into laughter, her siblings trying not to laugh, as their Mirror Realm Counterparts stared Wesely saying

"No way"

Simone opened her jacket, pulling out a vape

" oh honey you're in for a rude awakening as yes exactly that is what I am. I stopped working on the streets about 5 years ago. Nowadays, I entertain in the most popular strip club in Ninjago or, well, formerly Ninjago," She took a hit, letting out the smoke with a smirk yelping as she got pelted by not one but 2 pens

"No Vaping in the office" Cyrus 15 snipped she grinned tucking the device away,

She then turned around, shimmying her jacket down, showing the brand of Borg Industries on her shoulder, but also all the rest of the tattoos and when she turned around they spotted the blackened skin around her powersource,

Her counterpart was left speechless as Simone laughed,

"I also have a wife. Elora who's in the same field."

Cyrus 14 asked his counterpart dumbfounded "How in the World?"

Simone interupted pulling her jacket back on but leaving it unzipped,

"Oh got into car batteries and the likes Daddy over here disowned me for a bit he did pay for my apartment for a while but wouldn't give me an allowance so in order to feed my habit I went out and got a job that makes money quick"

"Yeah, she's our chaotic one. Former Prostitute and current stripper," Chloe chirped

"Says the Hacker," Violet muttered

" yeah needless to say there's more than one kid of mine that turned out to be quite chaotic"Cyrus 15 shook his head looking a bit exasperated "Kids"

Chloe leveled him with a look,

" well you didn't build me originally to be your daughter you're forgetting to tell them I was originally your fiance"

That made a few of the Realm 14 crew burst out laughing as Cyrus 14s face grew red

"Yeah uh Ginny was the same, only she stuck with being a teacher, unlike Chloe who sounds like went a complete different way"

Ginny nodded,

" I have taught kindergarteners for close to 7 years now. I hoped to someday find someone and have a family after our Cyrus discovered himself during my absence…. by the way where is your husband,"

"What?!" The 15th realms inhabitants shrieked making the 14th realms inhabitants wince

" I was waiting to tell them because it appears here, everything did not go according to how it went in our Realm. I have already done research on him, here and he was a villain outright. Cyrus of this realm did not offer out a hand like I did"

He turned around to the confused appearance of their counterparts

"during the events of the time twins, I offered my hand out to Acronix and he took it, we became fast Friends and I was able to bring him back over to the side of good, he himself took down Krux with my help."

He leaned on the desk shrugging

" for the first couple years, Acronix really showed his intelligence with technology, one day he showed me a security flaw that I had not noticed and only he noticed because he hacked into the system to show me. So he became our white hat hacker to make sure all of our security devices have no flaws

" and I'm guessing over years and years you too fell for each other," Violet carefully said the sheepish grin giving her her answer along with him pulling out a necklace with a ring on it She sighed, "oh dear I best make a call to the chief he's probably already arrested your husband thinking he's our Acronix who escaped,"

" how did you have a direcrt line to the chief" Eris asked raising an eyebrow, but Violet already was talking to someone,

" you are looking at the mayor of our city" Felix said with pride,

Now it was their counterparts turned to be surprised

"Whoa, so instead of a doctor in your guys realm Violet became mayor?"

He nodded

"Yeah, she was a lawyer but after the mess of a situation with the overlord part two she decided to run, she is the most powerful woman in the city"

They turned their heads as they heard,

" yeah thank you chief figured as much glad we could get that sorted out" Violet looked to them as she tucked her phone away "yep they already had Acronix locked up he's already been saying he's not the one they're looking for, Chief will be escorting him here as quickly as he can,"

"Oh thank the first Spinjitzu Master Dad's alright," Harriet 14 said clutching her chest,looking beyond relieved to the confusion of the others,

" he can be a bit dim witted at times intelligence is high, common sense or wisdom however is non existent, so him running around Ninjago, it's like letting a cat out into the streets," Victoria explained to the snorts of the others

"So while he's on the way let's get this head count going"

For the next few minutes they called out names,

"Only the Pixals are missing," Cyrus 15 said

"They're probably at the Monestary can someone try to get to them?"

"On it!" Chloe said as the Elevator asked

Acronix Chromos Identified as wishing permission-

"Granted!" Cyrus 15 called out and the groups barely had moved out the way of the elevator before a giant blur ran past them Cyrus 14 laughing as Acronix picked him up and spun him around,

"Oh thank the first Spinjitzu master you're alright!" He crowed, "I was heading here when I got hog tied,"

They shared a quick kiss, before Cyrus 14 responded,

"Well your here now thanks to my Counterparts daughter,"

As gentle as possible, Acronix set the other back down looking over at Violet

"I heard thank you, Mayor Borg,"

"It was no problem," She responded, watching as he went over to their Counterparts,

"You kids okay?" He started checking them over as the other group stared

"Wow," Chloe finally said, "This is so strange, it's like he's a normal civilian"

[sicksucculentz]

Tiny details in Littlest Treehorn I failed to ever mention.

There are a few little details I missed ever metioning within the Littlest Treehorn AU!

Pixal is a trans woman! I think I mentioned it before but Borg created a male nindroid, Pixal later decided she wanted to be a female. She still kept some masculine features such as a flat chest and a more male shaped body frame but there were many other things she changed like her hair, voice, clothes, pronouns, etc. Zane still loves her regardless of this. He may be feral but he respects things like that. The two of them are happily married to each other.

Zane is a vegan. It is not a trait within treehorns but his own personal choice. He will still humor other diets and try other things his main diet just mostly consistent of a vegan diet.

Morro is sharing Lloyd's body. After losing everything he just wants a place to hide away. Lloyd forgave him and has been allowing Morro to stay huddled away inside his subconscious. This also means Morro can take control of Lloyd's body if Lloyd so lets him. He's mellowed out sense when he attacked to the team but he is still very much snappy and lashes out from time to time.

The volcano was not Morro's direct cause of death. He was sick, very ill and delusional with a debilitating fever. He got it in his head he could find what he was looking for in that volcano and zombies his way inside. Once inside the heat combined with his fever got the best of him. He laid down and died when his brain could no longer take it and fried. Sadly this death is one of the reasons he's a bit of germaphobe and will not have control of the body if Lloyd or ANY of the other team mates are sick.

Nya has gigantism. She's far larger than a normal person should be. She used to be this meaty little kid but as she grew up with good care from her brother she reached a very large size! She's not fat just has larger proportions and height. Kai is very small compared to her and has even stunted his own growth because all the food and care was going to Nya. Kai should be Nya's size.

Jay has a very weird yet healthy obsession with Zane. It’s not creepy per say just weird. He’s comforted by Zane both in affection and smell. Smell is something that rings a lot to Jay. Zane dosent so much stink as he does smell…like a wet animal, or like mildew mixed with something musty. It’s not nasty over powering but something you would have to get pretty close to him to pick up on. Jay…wont stop sniffing Zane…it makes everyone uncomfy.

Zane was always able to handle serious events far better than the rest of his team because he had already been through so much before joining the team. Wild animal attacks, stores, food scarcity, trying to help provide for his herd of treehorns during rough periods. The team likes to joke he came preprogrammed with PSTD.

Jay is missing his right ear. The external ear is gone gone. Theres a little hole opening just like his left ear but thats it. Theres a jagged scar where the tissue has been stitched and sewn back together. He got his ear stuck in one of his own creations. The machine ripped his ear clean off the side of his head. He’s bent down to listen closely and flew a little too close to the sun with that. He can still ear fine out of that ear He’s also missing a good portion of his right pointer finger, right pinky, and left index finger.

Zane is SCARY parental towards Lloyd. He dosent exactly restrict Lloyd from doing anything he’s just really more like a mother cow. They ram/charge/attack/or menace anyone or anything that comes near the young. He’ll even go as far as to throw things at strangers that get a little too close.

Zane’s main form of harming folks is to kick but he does lash out in other ways. He slaps, hits, punches, pushes, uses tools/weapons, headbutts, etc.

Zane is regarded as a polar creature. His father was smart enough to create Zane to be geared for far colder temperatures sense they have a near year round winter. He can handle summers and warmer temperatures he’s just going to like it. He likes spring weather where it’s sort of warm but that's it.

Zane still uses shurkins and his compound bow. He practices throwing and or firing arrows in his free time. Nya takes pictures of him with his bow clicked to his back and pretending to be brooding.

Zane is semi mute by choice and would rather choose to use sign over speaking. Speaking or signing he just has no filter AT ALL. Words and are just words and he doesn't understand why some words are bad and some words are good. He's known to sprinkle cuss words into signing and sometimes say them out loud. He can be brunt but he does have a tendency to have some humor in any communication form. He's not always serious.

Zane has faked mental breakdowns and fits that ‘cause a winter storm’ a couple different times to get Lloyd out of training so he can have a damn break. Lloyd honestly dosent even know, he just thinks Zane is unstable.

Figured it’s about high time I share one of my Ninjago OCs!

Meet Dani!

Age: 18

Hair color: Brown

Eye color: Brown

Family Lineage: descended from Dareth, the Brown Ninja

First Appearance: Beyblade Masters

Likes:

Working

Pumpkin spice tea

Being in charge

Dislikes:

Being underestimated

Being compared to her ancestor

Lazy people

Backstory:

Ever since the time of Dareth, his lineage was described as weak and lazy, just like he was. The Elemental Masters never referred to them as such, of course, but several others still did. Danielle got tired of the insults and name-calling, so she had her mother sign her up for melee fighting lessons when she was six. By the time she was thirteen, she was a melee champion; no one would call her weak ever again! But she couldn't shake the lazy bit, so she applied for a job at Steeper Wisdom when she was fifteen. Her family had a deep connection with the Masters, after all, and she could continue that family legacy this way - the legacy of helping the Masters. PIXAL admired her determination, and gave her a job washing dishes. In just a few short years, she excelled up to being promoted as PIXAL's assistant manager, and often took over for her when she was absent.

Trivia

- She still does melee tournaments in her spare time. If one happens on a day she's supposed to be working, she works twice as hard the days before and after to make up for her absence.

- She doesn't like being compared to Dareth, but she includes animal-like moves into her attacks. Her favorite being "Gorilla Rage", where she hops around her opponent and then suddenly knocks them down and beats them with her fists until they either tap out or manage to escape.

- Some melee fighters in her tournaments have ridiculous costumes and nicknames. To that, she says: "They're trying to cover up the parts of themselves they hate. Me; I love every part of myself. I put my usual outfit and name on display when I fight, and people can either love me or hate. If they hate me, that's their problem."

- She deeply cares for all people, young and old. She even asked PIXAL to create a "Companion's Special": whenever a poor/homeless person or family comes by the tea shop, she gives them any tea of their choice and treat for free. Normally this would be bad for business, but paying people keep coming back. It's a combination of fear for the manager and assistant manager, and greed for the delicious inventory.

- She is highly perceptive. Her Companion's Special often leads to people trying to act poor in order to get free food, so she's trained herself to spot the differences between a real homeless person and a fake.

- She loves kids, and tells all those who come to the tea shop to call her Mama Bear. On her breaks, she often plays with the children, but doesn't let them talk her into getting more tea cakes.

- Just because she loves kids doesn't mean she won't physically man handle them if they are bullying other kids. Man, teenager, or child, she won't hesitate to unleash everything she knows about melee to subdue a bully.

Weapon of choice (if need be): Hammer. She never goes anywhere without one. (Robbers and bullies beware.)

Special Skills:

Melee fighter

Assistant manager of Steeper Wisdom

Business knowledge

Makes a bestseller tea on a whim

High perceptiveness

Personality: She can be bossy at times, but she is normally spunky and supportive of her friends and coworkers, and will use her skills on anyone who dares make them cry.

Favorite Song: One Woman Army

This is an old drawing, so let me know if you want me to redraw her!

Chapter 42: Battle of the Ivory Gold Tower

With Coles decree some Ashers and void monsters allied to them came through the portals by Dagons throne platform. Cole took charge of the dark forces speaking in an ancient dark language their commands before leading them into the battle. The rest of them prepared to defend themselves torn over what to do.

“What do we do?! I don’t want to fight our friends, our family,” Jay exclaimed worried and guilty as he was responsible for Cole falling to the darkness. The Stag declared to them as creating for himself out of dark energy a naginata before they started to fight, “you will fight them or they will destroy you. You no longer have a choice. Those are no longer your friends. They are but shadows of themselves darkened and twisted by Dagon and the dark energies of the void. If you wish to save them and end this madness then you need to destroy the source that has corrupted them. Green dragon we will keep everyone occupied you focus on reaching Dagon and destroying him. Take note no one is going to make it easy for you especially your tainted friends. She-droid I can sense you want to but do not try and connect with the droid dragon. You will get poisoned by the void energies that consumes him corrupting you as well and Amber Dragon do not touch me! I sense what you are doing. My energies are too dangerous for you. You cannot handle my powers and will be poisoned by the void if you do. You want a power to copy use the knights powers not mine.” Wu had quietly suggested to Skylor that it might be useful for her to tap into the Stags power in an attempt to even the odds and Skylor had thought she had been doing well sneaking up to him unseen. Upon his words she took some steps back away from him not wanting to risk getting corrupted and startled he had been aware of her. Instead she did as he suggested and tapped into the knights Nexo powers by touching one of their shields. The knights were using an ice based power for against the Ashers. The knights were more than willing to share their power with her. Their group was quickly overwhelmed by their enemies. The Stag took on the nastiest of the monsters like Nocturn Crows, Dreadcondas and Hungers which luckily were highly drawn to him while the knights helped the ninja and their friends take on the other monsters most of which were lesser entities and the humanoid Zivkins and Ashers while trying to also hinder but not seriously harm Cole and Zane who clearly could no longer control themselves deeply influenced by the darkness now inside them as they targeted their once friends and family. Despite wanting to Pixal heeded the Stags warning and didn’t try to connect with Zane, she did however attempt to get through to him by talking to him to try and talk him out of the darkness’s hold but he didn’t seem to be listening to her. He kept attacking them trying to hit someone with a breath attack of ice or the void mists or trying to snap his jaws on them which most of them were pretty sure would get them eaten as they had seen him bite onto an Asher that had gotten mad at him for interfering with its attack. As retaliation for its chastising Zane had clamped his jaws on it then as if unable to control himself after shaking it a bit swallowed it whole. Seliel had tried talking Cole out of his dark hold but was doing no better than Pixal was with Zane. Cole they quickly came to realise had developed an extreme strength and powers in dark magic with his corruption. A few of the dark powers he could use including an ability to cast a sphere of energy around others or himself that could block any of their powers or magic’s and to siphon energy from them. Both Pixal and Seliel didn’t seem to be having much success. They did note however that their loved ones would pause their attacks if they got in the way or caught their attention and would oddly for a short time turn their attacks onto one of the Ashers or their monsters close by instead of interacting with them or trying to hurt their friends. In her attempts to get through to him Seliel noticed at one point Cole did seem to regain some control for a few seconds pausing in his attack to mutter to her looking to be in pain, “it’s too late… I can’t… can’t fight. Save yourself… I’m sorry…” before turning his attack on an Asher who was confused and angry that Cole was attacking him and not them. While the others tried to keep Cole, Zane and the dark forces focussed on them Lloyd tried to rush up the stairs towards Dagon having to dodge and fight back attacks from Ashers, Serpent Flies, Vulcaroths and other various monsters on the way. Dawnbringer was quite effective at leaving damages and destroying the dark beings giving him a slight edge against them. He just managed to get to the stairs but wasn’t even halfway up before a force of cold air hit him in the side sending him flying off the stairs and towards the left side wall where he landed winded and sore on the floor. Dragon Zane had hit him with a shout of freezing winds to knock him back and after he was sent flying Zane jumped to land on the stairs before starting to stalk off the stairs and towards Lloyd to attack him. After he had landed Clay rushed over to help Lloyd up and put himself between Lloyd and dragon Zane to protect him while Lloyd recovered. Dragon Zane breathed a blast of dark frost at them but the two crouched down hiding behind Clays shield so they weren’t hit by the blast. When his breath was done dragon Zane moved forward looking to try and bite the two. Noting his actions and thinking quickly to stop him Robo-bill Merlok hit Zane in the face with a magical blast. The blast caught his attention turning him towards Wu and Merlok who were fighting together.

“Zane stop this, we all know this is not you. You’re a kind, caring and gentle soul not some cruel monster. You have to fight whatever that daemon has done to you,” Wu tried to encourage to Zane. Zane paused for a moment shaking his head as if fighting something in his mind before calming down and looking back at them to growl, “Nil-Du-Pah, it is too late the darkness is too strong… the Zane you knew is gone. I am now one with the void.”

“Indeed you are my pet and if you were smart like him then you would all join him or you shall perish,” they heard Dagon declare with pleasure before Zane muttered, “nil-iiz-du.” Seeing him charging up to hit them with an icy breath Merlok held his staff up with two hands at dragon Zane and created a magical barrier around him and Wu to protect them from the blast. It protected them but the dark ice built up on the ward around them entombing the two in a thick dome of dark ice. Dragon Zane just stood looking at the dome for a second before turning back to attack Lloyd and Clay who were prepping to have to fight him. Before he could attack Zane got hit by a strong shock seizing him up for a few seconds. The shock drew his attention to Jay who was yelling at him, “no bad boy, bad dragon mutated nindroid. You don’t freeze your master in your dark ice. Bad boy… you don’t eat your brothers either!” His attacks and disciplining turned Zanes attention to Jay who seeing he had caught Zanes attention and afraid of what Zane would do to him if he got close began trying to run away from him as Zane came after him clearly angry from Jays actions. While Jay ran from him their enemies tried to stop him so Zane could get close. As Zane began to follow Jay Macy took advantage of his distraction to get close and hit the back of his foot as hard as she could. While he reacted to her hit Cole who was fighting Axl and Skylor wielding his warhammer with one hand took note of Macys actions and while she was distracted sent a seam of dark tainted rock shards across the ground toward her. She was unaware of his actions till the rocks burst up in front of her knocking her back where Clay and Jestro came to her aid while Lloyd and Kai had rushed over to try and break Wu and Merlok free of their ice tomb.

“I’ve been cut, I can feel the darkness invading me,” Macy expressed holding onto her one leg where one of the dark shards had left a deep cut which was glowing with a void green glow while the area around it had blackened, “forget about me. Help the others. I’ll try to fight the voids hold as long as I can but I can’t guarantee it for long.” They left her while she tried to hold back the voids hold as long as she could while it steadily overtook her and went to help Lloyd and Kai who were being pestered by some Ashers and monsters including a Hunger which was trying to wrap its tongue on Lloyd to siphon his energy. Wu and Merlok were trying to break the ice from the inside but with little effect. None of them had left any damage to the dome. Clay helped Lloyd take on the Hunger with him attacking it from behind and Lloyd from the front till they managed to get a lucky break for Lloyd to stab the monster in its chest destroying it causing it to explode in a dark mist before disappearing. Jestro meanwhile helped Kai take out some of the Ashers and other monsters.

“We need to get them out of there, they have a limited amount of oxygen in this thing,” Lloyd panicked trying to chip into the ice with Dawnbringer having little effect. Even Kais fire had little effect on this dark ice barely leaving any mark or melting any. It seemed the void tainting in Zanes ice made it impervious to elemental powers and disturbingly strong. Even though Clay knew they should focus on getting to Dagon who was laughing and enjoying their squabbling from his throne he also knew Lloyd would not leave those he cared about till they were safe. Clay couldn’t blame him; he would do the same.

“We’re going to need something more powerful,” Clay noted as they looked around for something or someone with the strength to break the ice while fighting some of their opponents. Macy had instigated a fight with Nya and Skylor after succumbing to the voids hold. Jay had nearly been caught by dragon Zane who was still after him and Jay had been startled to find as Zane tried to bite him that Dagon had given his dragon form a set of teeth on the inside and roof of his mouth like some reptiles to make his bite even worse. He had managed to escape by tossing with considerable force one of the harpy beings who was trying to stop him into Zanes mouth all the way to the back of his throat as he went to bite him. While Zane swallowed the creature looking to be confused over what he had just eaten Jay tried rushing away having to dodge Cole who had activated his lava arms which glowed a void green color trying to crush Jay with his warhammer. Since he wasn’t wearing his hood and mask they could see Dagons hold was further affecting Cole as he had grown fangs which he was not afraid to use to try and bite them with and was starting to grow small bull like horns which were sticking out of his hair. Jay managed to evade Coles first attack and Axl rushed in to block Coles warhammer from a second attack but was struggling against Coles strength which had become much greater than usually due to the effects of the voids and Dagons corruption. After swallowing the creature dragon Zane went to hit Jay with an icy breath attack however he ended up hitting Cole who was in the way instead freezing him in ice. Instead of taking him out of the fight like they expected Cole smashed out of the ice angered to declare to Zane slamming his warhammer on a considerable piece of the dark ice that sat on the ground next to him smashing it to bits with no effort, “watch where you’re aiming that you overgrown reptilian tin can.”

“Cole can break the ice! We need to get his attention to bring him over here,” Clay noted and Kai exclaimed, “say no more I can do that.” He moved a bit away from the dome and closer to Cole who was battling Axl and Lance while Pixal and Seliel were trying to help Jay escape Zanes attacks while also fighting back the enemies. Kai threw a blast of fire into Coles back proclaiming, “hey Cole, your fat and weak, useless, a coward because you can’t express your emotions for Seliel… oh and cake sucks.” Kai’s taunting caught Coles attention angering him and he left Axl and Lance to attack Kai who placed himself with his back against the dome prepping for Coles attack. Cole went to slam his hammer on Kai who dodged his attack just in time so Cole slammed his weapon into the dome leaving a decent sized dent in it and cracking its surface. Kai kept teasing Cole to edge him on then dodging his swings making sure he would hit the icy dome with each strike. The others made sure to stand out of the way while keeping back the enemies.

“Will you stop moving,” Cole growled getting madder at Kai for his dodging but he luckily seemed unaware he was freeing Wu and Merlok. Once they were free Merlok blasted Cole away bowling him into Macy giving them and some of the others a bit of a reprieve from attacking their friends. Robo-bill Merlok was fine though Wu was a bit out of breath from the low oxygen they had in the dome. He was quickly recovering and urged Lloyd to not worry about him and get to Dagon before things escalated out of hand. Cole and Macy had recovered and Axl, Skylor and Seliel were trying to hold Cole back while Clay and Jestro had moved to try and keep Macy occupied. The Stag had taken out a few of the monsters plaguing him but more kept coming trying to overwhelm him. As they fought and took out opponents more kept coming through the portals. It seemed every time they took out an enemy another would come through the portal to take its place along with more enemies. Jay, Nya, Aaron, Pixal, and Lance were fighting various opponents while trying to avoid getting hit by Zanes attacks. Zane was crawling and occasionally flying around hitting random parts of the area with his breath attacks hoping to hit one of them with the attacks or to bat them with one of his wings, his tail or head along with trying to bite them. To stop one of his barrage of attacks from the sky as he made a pass overhead Jay hit him with a hefty shock. The shock clearly hurt and surprised him causing Zane to crash land and slide into the entrance wall breaking several parts of the ice barricade he had put on it including opening up the doorway into the fortress as he slammed into it. Small pieces of the ice that broke off landed atop him as he lay on the ground after the crash landing resting for around a minute before starting to slowly get up. Hoping to try and put some restraint on Zane to limit his attacks Aaron used his hover shield to rush over to Zane. Using a setting on his crossbow Aaron shot out a rope of Nexo energy around Zanes snout as he got up and pulled the rope tight. It seemed to be working to hold his mouth shut. Dragon Zane shook his head trying to loosen the rope but ended up pulling Aaron who held on tightly to his crossbow which the rope was still attached to off his board instead. Aaron clung on to his weapon as best he could terrified of being dropped especially as Zane took to the air coming to perch on the top of one of the walls by the throne platform. After landing Zane gave his head a few shakes before using his wings and a hind foot to work the rope off his snout. When he got it off however he didn’t let it drop instead he grabbed it in his mouth. Aaron had a bad feeling as he clung on that things were not going to go well for him. Zane began shaking him like a dog with its toy till Aarons shield which Aaron had summoned to try and help him get out of that situation hit Zane in the side of the head. When it hit him Zane let go of the rope in surprise flinging Aaron to the ground where he bounced a bit before landing face down on the ground winded, bruised and dazed. Annoyed by the shield Zane picked it up in his mouth from where it landed at his feet chomping on it a few times delivering some damage that shut it off before swallowing it. He then turned his attention back to Aaron stating ‘nil-du-ronaan, feel the sting void hound’. While Aaron lay dazed Zane built up his void breath looking at Aaron who was slowly recovering. Everyone else was occupied and unable to come to Aarons aid but Nya was able to call out to him drawing his attention to Zane. Aaron attempted to roll out of the way as Zane let his breath go at him but in his dazed, bruised and winded state he was unable to move away quick enough allowing his right arm and leg to get hit by the blast causing him pain and darkening them.

“Uh-oh, this isn’t good!” Aaron expressed shaking from the shock and pain of the void breath. He tried to fight its influence but was unsuccessful and quickly fell to the voids influence.

“Hmm that one has the image of a canid on his attire do you know what that reminds me of void brother…” Dagon expressed with a twisted smile as Aaron succumbed to the voids grip. Once he had succumbed Dagon hit Aaron with a dark spell which engulfed him in a dark fog. Before the fog could clear a large dark beast lunged out to land crouched on four limbs to look over all of them looking for a target baring its aquamarine tinted off white teeth at them. There was a distinct wolfish look to the beast who was largely coated in a void black fur. Though most of it was void black there was some faint and dim glowing void green markings on its lower limbs, claws, bushy tail tip, and part of the chest and belly. Its claws were brightly tipped by an aquamarine color and its eyes were void green. Interestingly the beast had Aarons headphones stuck on its head over its ears which boasted small lynx tufts on their tips.

“How does it feel to know you are not the only one who can do that brother or should I call you Storabek? Yha I know of your attempt to fit into the mortal realms as the demon spirit king of the wilderness and hunt. It took a while but I figured out how you did that trick and how to control your monsters. Try all you want but you will not be able to control or cure him like those of your make,” Dagon boasted with a dark laugh as the were-wolf Dagon had turned Aaron into gave out a howl before charging on all fours at Axl. The Stag just looked at Dagon with only hints that he was angry appearing in his near emotionless demeanour. Aaron knocked Axl over pinning him down from behind to bite into his armour trying to pull it off leaving Seliel and Skylor to try and restrain Cole while Axl struggled to get loose of Aarons grip trying to also not get bit by him. Pixal and Jestro came to aid Axl while Skylor and Seliel continued to keep Cole occupied. Jestro hit Aaron over the head with his staff trying to draw his attention away from Axl. This just drew Aarons attention to Jestro. Aaron lunged atop Jestro moving in to try and bite at his throat but Jestro managed to save himself by holding his staff into the back of Aarons mouth preventing him from closing his jaws. Axl went to help out trying to pull Aaron off Jestro but was quickly forced to help Clay fight Macy as she came at him to knock him away so Aaron could try and bite or what Jestro felt he was trying to do eat him. Thinking quickly Pixal noted the headphones still stuck on Aarons head and hacked into them to blare as loudly as they would go some music hoping the beast form Aaron was now in would have as sensitive hearing as the beast it resembled.

“Loud! Too loud!” Aaron howled his voice dark and beastial as he backed up pawing at his headphones trying to stop the noise now piercing his ears. This gave Jestro enough time to get up and put some distance between him and Aaron before Aaron managed to shut the headphones off. Mad for the disturbance Aaron turned his focus onto Pixal and lunged at her. The two began to spar and Jestro came over to try and help Pixal combat Aaron.

As Lloyd rushed to the stairs Merlok accompanied him helping him dodge and defend against attacks as they headed for Dagon. Just as they reached the stairs Merlok grabbed Lloyds gi from behind and quickly yanked him back expressing, “look out!” Seconds later an icy breath created a wall of dark ice on the stairs just a few feet in front of where Lloyd had been heading half the way up the stairs blocking off the stairways. From his vantage point Zane had seen Lloyd trying to reach the stairs and hit the area with an ice breath to stop him. After creating the icy blockade Zane hopped off the wall to land on the ground by the stairs and attempt to attack Lloyd. Merlok, Wu, Kai, Lance and Jay joined to attack him while Seliel, Nya and Skylor were dragging Cole over to get him to break down the ice barricade Zane had made while fighting back the monsters trying to intervene in their plans. Zane was blocking them from getting close to the barricade using breath attacks along with his tail, wings, head and feet to hit them and knock them back preventing them from getting close to the stairs. Spinjitsu didn’t work on him, most weapons didn’t do much damage to his metallic skin with only Dawnbringer able to do any notable damage though Lloyd was hesitant to hit him too hard not wanting to anger Zane and most of their powers had little effect on him. Only Jays had a notable effect. By how he would flinch and seize up when the electricity hit him it obviously did hurt him which was understandable as he still had his droid body, it was just now in the form of a large dragon so he was vulnerable to electricity like normal. How he reacted however to being shocked was not exactly what they wanted to encourage. Instead of deterring him it was just angering him making him more aggressive. While they were fighting him Lance managed to get close to his right forelimb which was also his right wing without Zane noticing. He shoved his lance into Zanes arm wedging it a considerable depth through the skin on his one forelimb. Zane recoiled clearly in considerable pain while some sparking came from the damage which was had not only caused damage with wires sticking out was dripping some void plasm which dripped out of the wound. By the looks Lance had done some damage to Zanes arm. Zane looked angrily at Lance who was trying to pull his weapon out of dragon Zanes forelimb. The lance however was stuck wedged deep in his limb and the others were guessing likely caught in some wires and materials of his inner make. Lance was trying frantically to pull his weapon out as Zane looked at him. Thinking Zane was going to try and hit him with an ice or void breath Lance put his shield up at Zane in defence. In surprise and shock to them all however dragon Zane didn’t use a breath attack and instead clamped his jaws on Lance picking him up to shake him a bit before tossing him fully into his mouth with a small jerk up of his head before swallowing him whole. Even the knights and ninja not around or fighting Zane saw him do it shocking them. After eating Lance dragon Zane pulled the lance out of his wing slowly working it out of his arm clearly receiving pain from the endeavour.

“Did he just… did I just see what I thought I saw? Please tell me I didn’t just see that!” was all Kai could express staring at dragon Zane stunned and shocked while Zane managed to pull the lance out of his limb some void plasm coming out with it and coating the part of the lance that had been in him.

“No you saw it right, he just ate someone!” Lloyd expressed shocked while they could hear Dagon laughing and expressing from his throne, “oh how I am enjoying this. Yes do not be afraid to take a literal bite out of your opponents my pets. Let them become fuel for your dark beings.”

“No bad boy, bad dragon Zane you don’t eat people. Even if you’ve been turned into a monster you still don’t eat people. I think you’re getting too into being a dragon; you cut it out this instant do you hear me mister or do I have to shock it into your thick nindroid skull. Now you barf the shiny knight up this instant do you hear me?! You barf him up rate now,” Jay loudly expressed repeatedly hitting Zane with heavy blasts of shock trying to knock some sense into him. His first blast clearly caught dragon Zane off guard causing him pain and to drop the lance after the shock. This drew Zanes attention to Jay who kept shocking and disciplining him talking to him like he was a dog. They weren’t sure if how he was being talked to was annoying him but it was clear the continuous shocking was steadily making Zane angrier with each shock.

 “Uh Jay I wouldn’t do that… you’re just making him angry, very very angry!” Kai expressed still shocked by what he had seen while fighting an Asher and Lloyd noted shielding himself with his powers from the fire breath of a Vulcaroth, “he’s not like a dog he isn’t going to listen.” Jay wasn’t listening however determined to try and shock some sense into Zane who attempted to try and get close to Jay. The realization what he was doing was only angering Zane and nothing else didn’t hit Jay till dragon Zane had got close enough that Jay was in biting distance to him. Jay attempted to try and rush away but Zane was too quick and snapped his jaws onto Jay. Dragon Zane then lifted him off the ground shaking him. After some shakes he tossed Jay up a bit to catch him fully in his mouth before to their shock swallowing him whole as well.

“He just… He… He ate him! He just ate him! I can’t believe it Zane just ate Jay! Swallowed him whole like he was a bite sized snack!” Kai exclaimed shocked while they could hear Dagon laughing from his platform pleased by what was going on. Zane just went back to the damage on his arm and tried to put some of the wires that had gotten pulled out by removing the lance but he was having trouble just getting them put back in so he licked them flat against his arm cleaning the void plasm off as he worked. He looked to be in some pain as he worked on the injury ignoring the others as he worked.

“Jay!?” Nya expressed shocked and worried fiercely knocking over and piercing the heart of the Asher she had been struggling with while helping Seliel and Skylor with Cole taking it out causing it to dissipate into a dark energy which like all the other Ashers not taken out by ice or the cold rushed to the portals by Dagons thrown to re-manifest soon just like the monsters. Once it was taken out she hurriedly tried to contact Jays communicator. She was unable to get anything but gurgled static.

“Zanes body will interfere with the communicators you will be unable to contact him that way,” Pixal noted rushing over to help them while Axl and Jestro took on Aaron and Clay dragged Macy over to help break the barricade.

“What do we do?! They won’t survive for long inside his stomach. We have to get them out of him now,” Nya exclaimed.

“Yha and how do you plan on doing that. He obviously isn’t going to just barf them up, he probably won’t listen to us nor will he likely let us open him up like when you work on him and I am not going in after them. I don’t want to see what it looks like in there,” Kai expressed backing up from dragon Zane worried Zane would try to eat him next while Wu, Merlok, Nya and Pixal kept Zane distracted.

“How long do you think they could last in there?” Wu wondered knocking Zanes snout away with his staff as Zane went to bite him before getting knocked over by Clay who had been flung backwards by Macy, who had proclaimed herself a knight of the void and was trying to crush anyone who got in her way even her friends with her new strengths and powers provided by the void. Clay was still trying to get her close to the barricade but in her corrupted state she had become quite strong and could wield dark magic allowing her to rough Clay up quite a bit.

“At most possibly a couple minutes; the special breathing apparatuses of their masks should allow them to survive for longer I do not know for how long though and that does not take into account the nature and fluids of his synthetic digestive system which will have already begun to digest them the moment they ended up inside it. Their attire might offer them some protection but again I do not know for how long,” Pixal commented before suggesting, “I could try and hack into him to force him to regurgitate them.”

“No you would risk getting poisoned by the void. We cannot have more falling to this darkness. We will have to find another way to get them out,” Wu expressed looking around to see their force which were slowly getting smaller while the forces of darkness were growing. The only ones that could be permanently removed were the Ashers but only when harmed by ice or the knights Nexo powers. Instead most were simply being displaced to re-manifest and come back through the portals to get back into the attack. Seliel and Skylor were still trying to trick Cole into hitting the barrier some more. They had managed to trick him a couple times leaving some decent sized dents and deep cracks in the barricade but he had quickly clued in to what they were doing. He had turned the tables on them and was forcing the two away from the barricade and into the enemies which included some Ashers, a swarm of Vesparilions and a Vulcaroth. Since he had clued in and was not going to co-operate or be fooled it was up to Clay to get Macy to take a few swings at the barricade. Even though she lacked Coles super strength which had gotten stronger with the corruption they were hoping she at least had the power from her corruption to do damage to the barricade; Clay could tell from his fighting with her that she was defiantly a lot stronger than normal he just wasn’t sure if it would be strong enough to damage the dark ice. Meanwhile Axl was trying to help Jestro escape Aarons grip. Aaron had sunk his teeth into Jestros left leg and looked to be trying to shake and chew it off.

“If you need something to chew on then chew on this,” Axl expressed grabbing a large Serpent-fly that was pestering him trying to stab him with its stinger and tossing it at Aarons head. Aaron let go of Jestro to attack the Serpent-fly allowing Axl to pull Jestro away. Aarons fight with the serpent fly didn’t last as long as Axl had hoped as Aaron not only quickly overpowered it but wolfed down the whole thing swallowing it largely whole before turning back to them.

“… or make it a snack, a very gross snack… that can’t be good for you,” Axl commented grossed out by beastial Aaron eating the demon snake bug before Jestro told him, “just leave me; it’s too late for me. He bit me and it broke skin; I can feel this dark void thing taking over me. I know I can’t fight it.” Aaron had left bite marks on Jestros left leg which were glowing void green and the area had blackened with the darkness from the wound quickly spreading. Knowing he couldn’t help Jestro and seeing Aaron knew he had successfully infected Jestro with the void and had turned his attention to him Axl retreated closer to the others. Aaron gave off a howl before chasing after him leaving Jestro who was quickly being consumed by the void. Once fully consumed Jestro quickly turned on the others wielding dark magic like the Ashers sorcerers.

Shortly after the fight had started they had noticed this voids hold on their friends was not only giving their corrupted friends more power, allowing them to wield dark magic including magic of the void but was starting to make them behave more beast like and as time went on and the voids hold got deeper it was making this trait more noticeable. They of course expected Zane and Aaron to get more beastial due to the forms they had been cursed into but they had noticed Cole, Macy and Jestro also starting to become more beastial in behaviours using not just weapons but their teeth and the claws the corruption caused them to grow in their attacks. They were not afraid to bite others even their own allies; Cole especially was quite nippy. He had bitten off and even eaten parts mainly fingers of a few of the Ashers who had made him mad and, before Jay had gotten eaten, had grossed out Kai and Jay who both saw him eating some Vesparilions like they were donuts. Even though it hadn’t happened yet they were all pretty sure if any of them bit one of them and it broke skin it would corrupt them like how Aarons bite had converted Jestro. At one point while getting into a scuffle with Cole worried of being bit Kai took the advice of the hyenoid Luna and bit Cole on the arm surprising him and giving Kai a chance to escape Cole’s attention. From the start of the fight they had also noticed despite fighting for the Ashers side none of those who got corrupted seemed to hold any true allegiance to the Ashers or their allies. They had no qualms with hurting or destroying their supposed allies if they got in their way or angered them. Cole had taken out a Vulcaroth with his bare hands when it had gotten in his way before taking out some of the Ashers who tried to discipline him for his actions. Zane didn’t care if his breath attacks caught one of the enemies. While his void breath had no effect on them his ice attacks just froze the monsters in ice and the ice destroyed any Asher caught in it. If anything tried to fight back against their friends behaviours it didn’t end well for the aggressor often getting them slain, mauled and even eaten making the enemies wary of their corrupted friends. There was however a very strange occurrence happening with those corrupted. They were fighting certain individuals differently than others. They would become hesitant or show restraint preventing them from using their full potential on them and attacking these individuals would cause them act strangely. They would enter periods of time when attacking these individuals where they seemed to go a bit nuts for a while attacking everything else around them but these individuals as if they were frustrated by something possibly frustrated at their lack of control and their struggle to not hurt those with very close relations to them. This individual was unique to each of them. For Zane it was Pixal, for Cole it was Seliel while for both Macy and Jestro it was Clay. As far as they could tell Aaron didn’t seem to show this however there was no one there he had a major close relation to. Along with this strange quirk it was also quite clear none of them took any orders from their supposed allies. They would listen only to each other or Dagon who was clearly not bothered by their behaviour instead enjoying it and the chaos it made. Both Wu and Merlok felt the disturbing changes to their personalities and behaviours and the lack of allegiance to the others was due to the voids hold. The void was an ancient and primal force with allegiances to no one but those of its own and this trait was coming through in its corruption of those it got a hold of.

It quickly became apparent the fight was not going well for them. They had already lost a few to the voids hold turning them into monsters, two had been eaten by one of those who had been corrupted and those still in the fight were being overwhelmed by the enemies and their own friends. They had found they could at least turn their corrupted friends against their enemies every now and then but it wasn’t enough to stem the tide of their enemies. Despite his strengths even the Stag was being overwhelmed by some of the most powerful monsters the Ashers had including Nocturn Crows, Dreadcondas, Gloam Harpys, Hungers, Vulcaroths, Asher Sorcerers and more. The Asher Sorcerer who had been standing with Dagon had dropped down to confront the Stag in the beginning of the fight but had disappeared in the fighting which was not a good thing. It had the Red Diamond Shurikan which could cause a lot of problems if it was used against them. The enemies were ganging up on the Stag to prevent him from being useful in the fight. Things were not going good and if things continued the way they were going they would not last much longer and defiantly would not win against Dagon. It was not just them struggling against Dagons forces…

The fighting throughout the city had started off good but was no longer going good. Despite turning them against their masters the soul shriven were too weak and didn’t last long in a fight and their enemies clearly had no fear of them just pushing them aside to go against those they felt were worthy opponents most of which were not skilled at fighting monsters like these. What had not been evident to Pelagius when he had scouted was the many portals the Ashers had hidden throughout the city allowing them and their forces to quickly reach different parts of the city with little effort. To make it worse dark elemental dragons had shown up not long after the attack started. They were highly resistant to most weapons and could deliver serious blows to areas they attacked. Despite their efforts a good deal of their forces were falling back unable to stand up to these monsters hoping they had done enough to draw their enemies attentions away long enough for the ninja to get close to Dagon. The Scimitar Dragon Vahlok had taken on the monstrous dragon Nidgrumndir aided by Celeana and her siblings. While things had started out good the dragon and the Ashers allied with them had turned the tables allowing them all to get overpowered, trapped and grounded near the inner part of the city. Fearing for their relatives those closest to the ninja and knights had set off trying to get close to the heart of the city in hopes to aid them or if things were turning for the worst at least be with them for their final moments. Kai and Nyas parents had been joined by Coles father, Jays parents, Misako, Macys parents the king and queen of Knighton, Lances parents and little sister, Axls parents and sister, Clays younger brother, Aarons parents and two of his brothers plus a few others with close relations to them had set off towards the center of the city. While most of them were not fighters they had decked themselves with various weapons and armour they had been given or had for the fight. Some had even decked themselves with various things like kitchen wares, gardening utensils, farm tools and bits from fallen nindroids and scimitar constructs who looked to have been taken out early in the cities takeover to help give them extra arms for if weapons they had got broken which was easy when fighting against some of these monsters. They had managed to get into the first ring following the path the knights had previously went through the electrical zone but had become cornered by the elemental dragons and corrupted Knights of the Prong who were not letting them get past the area and were proving too difficult to break through even when the up sized pryphon Chewy and Chompy the Shintaran ridgeback dragon that had come with some forces from Shintaro came to their aid. Their group was cornered and trapped in the nest area of the zone and though they were able to keep the forces largely at bay they couldn’t break loose or escape stopping their progress and trapping them away from the safety of help and close to the heart of the darkness. When it seemed they were doomed they were surprised by some of the Stags minions including Divayth, his daughter-clones, DJ, Kozac and some of the Scimitar Samurai. They wasted no time in interfering with the dragons and knights. They took over their fight allowing and encouraging the group to continue on to the center of the city…

The knights and ninja continued their struggle but were clearly not getting far and were struggling to keep going. They were overwhelmed and their friends who had been corrupted showed no signs of weakening. Clay had managed to trick Macy into attacking the barricade and she had been strong enough to damage it adding further damage to the parts Cole had damaged and creating a small gap so one of them could slip through however none of them could get through to it. They planned to get Lloyd to the barricade so he could get through and confront Dagon then the rest of them were going to find some way to destroy the portals so enemies could no longer get through. This was turning out a very difficult task however as their enemies were not letting them get close to the barricade let alone the stairs not even their friends. They were fighting as hard they could but getting nowhere. Their friends were corralling them all together and trying to force them against the one side wall. All even Zane and Aaron even though they tended to rarely use it could wield the dark magic’s of the Ashers, in fact the dark magic had become Jestros main method of attack and their powers were stronger than both the ninjas elemental powers and the knights Nexo powers. They were stronger than normal some much so not to mention Zanes form as a large dragon was nearly impossible to get around and combat especially when his allies helped Zane by covering areas he could not easily combat them at to help him keep them back away from the stairs. Not long after Aaron had been corrupted Seliel had retrieved his weapon to use it in combat and to keep it away from the enemies. It offered some help but not as much as they had hoped. Their battle continued to drag on with no sign of changing to their favour even when they got some surprise helpers for their side.

Not long after Zane had eaten Lance and Jay they had been surprised by some unexpected reinforcements. Some of their relatives and friends had managed to join them getting in through the damaged area by the doorway that Zanes crash landing had made. Even though some of them really weren’t fighters they were grateful for the added help. They really weren’t doing good, were getting overwhelmed especially with some of them having fallen to the enemies side and getting tired from the fighting. They could use the help. As they joined the fight the first thing they all did was search out their loved ones. When their relatives arrived they all fought their way to congregate together with each other.

“What a time for you all to show up!” Clay expressed feeling a bit relieved for the aid and Lloyd explained, “things aren’t going very well. We’ve lost Cole, Zane, Aaron, Macy and Jestro to the void. They’ve been corrupted and are now under Dagons control.” Cole and Macys relatives recognised their loved ones and were shocked by their appearances. They tried to get through to them talking to them. To all their surprises even while corrupted Cole and Macy recognised their relatives and like they had noted with Cole around Seliel they hesitated and held back their attacks on them looking torn over what to do. After some struggling they would turn to attack someone or something else trying to fight the urge to bring harm to their loved ones.

“Don’t let Aaron bite you or you’ll get corrupted as well,” Axl expressed pulling Aarons one brother who went to attack Aaron noting Aarons headphones on the were-wolf form and thinking the beast had done something to his brother back as Aaron went to bite him in defence. Aaron was finishing feeding on an Ashers arm he had chewed off an Asher. His relatives were shocked and stumped by Aarons appearance and actions.

“Is that really you bro?! What’s with the beastial looks?” one of Aarons brothers expressed stunned to Aaron and Clay explained, “Dagon turned him into that after the void corrupted him. So far he’s mutated Aaron and Zane into more beastial forms. The others are slowly being mutated into monsters by the voids energies; I dread to think of what kind of monsters Dagon is turning them into.” They had started to notice the longer under the voids hold they spent it seemed to start morphing them into something else; some sort of monsters.  

“Yha whatever you do don’t let any of them bite you, especially Zane!” Kai expressed unnerved and Maya inquired why before Pixal warned everyone to lookout. Noting they were all congregated together Zane had taken to the air and circled round to line himself up to swoop over them all to release a void breath. Seeing his approach and that he was building up a void breath Merlok and Clay created a ward over their group to protect them as he hit their area with the void breath. After hitting the area Zane landed by the stairs to Dagons throne to turn and face their group to continue his attacks. As he flew by Kai expressed startled, “cause that’s Zane!” They were all shocked by Zanes appearance.

“Dagon turned him into a dragon. If he hits you with that black mist you’ll be corrupted like them. He hit Cole and Aaron with it then Cole got Macy and Aaron got Jestro,” Lloyd explained hitting Zane in the face with a steady blast of energy to try and hold him back. Zane held his ground against Lloyds attack waiting for him to finish instead of wasting energy on fighting it. Zane was clearly annoyed by Lloyds attack but unharmed by it. Lloyd couldn’t keep up the blast for long and when he stopped Zane continued stalking towards them. Clay went to help Lloyd but got caught up fighting Jestro.

“Where’s Jay?” Edna wondered and without thinking still in shock from what he had seen Kai expressed, “being digested!” Zane had gone to try and bite Lloyd but Lloyd dodged and as he dodged Wu hit Zane in the side of the head with his staff. He went to hit him again but Zane had turned his head to attack Wu causing Wu to accidently shove his staff in Zanes one nostril stunning both. Zane backed up pawing at his nose and trying to blow the staff out. While he moved out of the fight Cole took over going after Lloyd his father trying to talk him out of the state he was in but having very little success and making Cole very unpredictable as he struggled to not turn on his father.

“What?” Ed wondered him and Edna confused.

“Zane… I can’t believe he did it!” Kai expressed only confusing everyone some more and Ray wondered, “what’s he talking about?” Zane managed to finally sneeze out the staff sending it to hit into the backs of some Ashers that were helping Cole attack Wu and Lloyd hitting them with the staff as well as some void plasm that came out with it grossing the Ashers out. He took a second to recompose himself before getting back into the fighting.

“You just missed it about ten to twenty minutes ago, hard to tell with all the fighting, we were trying to push Zane away from the stairs so we could get up to Dagon, I think Dagons making him guard it like a watchdog, anyway without warning he ate Lance and Jay. Snapped them up and swallowed them whole before anyone could do anything,” Seliel explained and upon hearing where the two had ended up their loved ones were all shocked and startled Jay and Lances relatives most of all.

“Are they going to be okay?!” Lances sister inquired worried for her brother and Nya expressed before rushing at Zane, “not if we can’t get them out soon. Zane won’t like it but even if I have to cut him open from the inside out I’m going to get them out before it’s too late.” Looking to be nervous of her approach Zane used a shout of cold air to knock most of them over.

“If it means anything I do not believe he intended to eat them. Bite them yes but he likely intended to just toss them away or shake them up to scare them,” Merlok stated as those who had got knocked over got back up and Axl inquired confused and disturbed while helping Aarons relatives try to hold Aaron who was trying to bite them to make them as Aaron was proclaiming part of his pack back, “then why did they end up in his stomach?”

“I believe either Dagons or the voids influence is responsible for that,” Merlok explained which Nya stated angry, “I don’t care what made him do it, I’m going to make him regret that action.” As they talked and fought some of them noticed one of the Serpent-flies fly into Zanes head smacking him in the eye. In retaliation Zane snapped it up and swallowed it whole. A few seconds later he looked a little unwell hanging back from the fighting a bit.

“Is he okay?” Ray wondered and Clay noted, “yha he’s been doing that every now and then since he ate Jay and Lance. I think it’s a good sign; could mean they’re still alive in there and trying to fight their way out.”

“Yha being trapped in there with one of those snake bug things would defiantly freak Jay out,” Kai expressed before calling out to Zane teasing him, “what’s a matter you big tin lizard. Not feeling too well? You look like you’ve had some of mine or Coles cooking; something or better yet someone you ate not agreeing with you.” His comment attracted Zanes attention and looking to be better Zane started to come at him. Not wanting to end up in the same situation as Jay Kai hit Zane with a blast of fire. They continued their fighting as more enemies kept coming through the portals. They at least had more to their forces even if some of them weren’t fighters it was at least something. They at least were helping them unlike the Stag who all though fighting the same enemies as they were didn’t seem to have any care in helping them or joining their group. He was fighting on his own. They all felt at least if he wasn’t helping them in their group it was at least a good thing that outside their corrupted friends the most powerful and dangerous of their enemies were largely attacking and focussing on him leaving mainly the weaker threats for them to handle. They continued fighting for close to an hour not getting anywhere.

“Quite flying around and get your nindroid butt down here so I can knock some sense into you. One way or the other I’m going to get Jay out of you even if I have to cut you open to do it,” Nya expressed after nearly over an hour of fighting getting more furious at dragon Zane for having swallowed Jay as time went on. Even though she knew Zane was not entirely himself so wasn’t fully to blame for his actions she was still mad at him. For over twenty minutes after swallowing Jay dragon Zane had shown signs that his decision was not entirely agreeing with him very well and that Jay was likely trying to fight back against his decision while trapped inside him as Zane looked occasionally to be feeling a bit sick sometimes sparking energy being present in his mouth and crossing his belly but he would shortly brush it off and never barfed Jay or Lance up. For the past while however Zane had shown no signs that Jay might still have been trying to fight back his actions which most of them took as a bad sign. Another thing some took as a bad sign was every now and then Zane was able to use a strange icy void green lightening like breath attack. For a while he would create snow storms that shot this lightening over the area. Luckily Merlok was able to counter these attacks whenever Zane tried to use the attack leading Zane to eventually abandon the storms mad at Merloks interfering. Some of them especially Kai felt Zane was suddenly able to use lightening in his attacks as a result of having digested Jay letting him use Jays powers. Nya on the other hand reasoned it was because Jay was inside him or part of the voids dark powers that was behind his strange lightening powers and not something bad having happened to Jay. Nya was not willing to give up or see the bad side just yet and had become determined to try and knock some sense into Zane. She had become hyper focussed in fiercely attacking him and anything that got in her way even those on her side if they tried to intervene. Pixal was mainly the only one brave enough to try and intervene trying to get Nya to understand Zanes predicament and to try and not hurt him too badly in her attacks. At one point Zane had reared up on his hind legs dodging a magical attack from Clay and prepping to hit him with a void breath. Before he could release the blast Clay surprised him with a powerful magical blast which created a bright flash of light when it hit him. This knocked him onto his back on the base of the stairs. While he lay on his back a bit stunned Nya climbed up onto him and made a few attacks on his belly trying to open one of the hatches in his body. When she couldn’t get them open as Zane wasn’t wanting them to be opened keeping them locked shut she switched to try and pry the plates on his chest up to get inside him. She had managed to dent and leave deep scratches in his skin void plasm seeping from the damages before he knocked her off by rolling over preventing her from doing more damage. At another point she had managed to climb up onto dragon Zanes head and had managed to give him several serious blows to the face including stabbing him in the one nostril and by his one eye. The act left deep scratches in his metal skin and clearly irritated and caused him pain possibly even scaring him. He managed to shake her off but she kept coming at him attacking his limbs, wings, tail or any other part she could reach. She was hitting him with such force she was leaving dents and scratches on both the metal and synthetic skin of his hide even cutting into wires beneath his skin any damages that broke through his skin dripping the strange void plasm. They all had a feeling even through the corruption she was scaring him with her attacks as he was steadily trying to avoid her any time she came near him. Often taking to the air to quickly put himself in a different location away from her if he saw her coming.

“You know if you weren’t threatening and trying to gut him like a fish he might let you get close to him and let his guard down,” Kai had expressed at one point only to get scared when she angrily chastised him for his comment. After quite a while of her barrage of attacks Zane had taken to the air; likely to avoid her fury some of them felt. He had circled the area once before using an ice breath to create a wall of dark ice between them and the stairs. It didn’t fully block them off from the area but did make things much harder as they now had to get around the icy wall which both ends had a swarm of enemies blocking their escape at. Zane perched on the side wall above them and continued to try and hit them with an icy breath for a few minutes while they continued to escape his and the others attacks. After failing to hit them with his breath dragon Zane again took to the air circling round to face them. As he flew towards them looking to build up his frost breath to create another ice wall this time over them Nya prepared to throw her weapon at him hoping to knock him out of the air. As he got close to them Nya threw her trident with as much force as she could at him. It struck him in the chest getting stuck in his chest and caused him to crash land in surprise and pain from her actions. His crash landing had him slide across the ground taking out a good portion of the ice wall he had made to corner them near the wall and coming to rest by the base of the thrones stairs taking quite a few of the Ashers and their allies along with ploughing over Cole and Macy who ended up knocked over to lay dazed on the ground having been hit by his wings. The three lay dazed for a few minutes before slowly getting back up to get back in the fight Zane looking to have received some damages from the crash as he got back on his feet having a bit of trouble gaining a footing for a few seconds looking sore and tired some void plasm dripping from his jaws.  

“They’ve been inside him for almost an hour the chances they’re still alive or even okay is slim especially with him getting knocked around like he is… who knows what kind of dangerous things he could have eaten that could be in there with them not to mention his normal digestive fluids that are in there. Let’s face it he isn’t going to cough them up and you won’t be able to open him up,” Lloyd noted struggling against Aaron who was trying to bite him.             

“Can he cough them up?” Aarons one brother inquired and Nya explained, “It takes some work but he can. His digestive system like his cooling system operate largely independently to his main neural networks that way his processors are not taxed and freed up for more complex operations. He only has minor control over the system like controlling their speed of functioning, temporarily reverse their functioning and shut them down if he has to. Other than that he has almost no control over what they do. On its own his system won’t work in reverse like that. He has to manually take control and operate it to cough something up and I do not think in his current state under Dagons hold he is going to do that. We would have to hack him and force him to do it which I don’t think he’ll let us do that either.” With her trident stuck in dragon Zanes chest Nya continued picking up one of the swords from an Asher that lay on the floor and throwing it at Zane where it hit his shoulder and bounced off a metal plate catching his attention as he slowly recovered from his crash landing laying propped up on his wings, “I’m not giving up just yet. I think it’s time we face it. Our only option is to destroy him. Hopefully they won’t get destroyed with him.” Despite having caught his attention Zane ignored her instead getting up and going after Wu not wanting to interact with or get close to her.

“As long as they are alive and have not been digested they likely will not be destroyed with him,” Pixal explained and Kai wondered, “and if they’re not alive or okay?”

“Then there will be no way of saving them. They will be considered part of him and will be destroyed with him and when he reforms what remains of them will still be inside him and continue to be processed,” Pixal answered and Kai muttered, “that’s not nice to hear… hey if we get out of this and fix the others this won’t give any of them including him a taste for humans will it?”

“According to some in the lost realm it can,” Axl stated as he along with Aarons brothers helped Lloyd with Aaron. Axl had wrapped his arms around Aaron holding his axe against his friends chest using it like a restraint to try and pull Aaron back from Lloyd who Aaron had pinned to the floor. His two brothers were trying to pry Aarons mouth open so Lloyd could get the sword out of his mouth trying to avoid getting cut by his teeth while also trying to hold back other monsters.

“Zane would never become like that. His current actions are not entirely his fault. Dagon has messed with his mind to control him not to mention who knows what kind of damages the void has done to his programming. He likely cannot think clearly and cannot resist any thoughts or desires that come to his mind no matter how hard he fights them,” Pixal defended Zane and Lloyd stated, “Guys can we focus on what we’re going to do. The quicker we get this done the better.”

 “I know this is dangerous but before we do anything drastic just let me try and connect to him,” Pixal offered taking out some corrupted skeevers. Even though he had become a monster and clearly was no longer himself Pixal felt the Zane she knew was still in there somewhere and couldn’t stand the thought of something serious happening to him.

“I don’t know…” Lloyd began not liking the idea and Pixal pleaded, “I will be very careful.”

“Okay but if it doesn’t work we’ll have to go the destructive route,” Nya relented ripping an Ashers staff from its hands and using it to destroy that Asher who was surprised by her actions. Her ferocity in attacks was starting to scare some of their enemies. Pixal wasted no time in trying to connect to Zane Nya, Kai, Aarons one brother and Lances sister coming to help protect her as she focus on the task. She had a bit of trouble as Zane was refusing to let her connect. As she tried he stopped his fighting of the others shaking his head as he fought Pixals attempts to connect to his mind. He sounded scared as he fought her attempts.

“It’s okay, we just want to help. You know deep down I will not hurt you,” Pixal consoled as she attempted to connect to him. Once she managed to connect to him dragon Zane stopped his fighting calming down appearing scared, confused and tired his eyes slowly fading to blank and white. He just knelt by them his wings and tail drooped on the ground and head hung over looking to be breathing heavily possibly even panting as he stared at the space below him.

“See that didn’t hurt and you are okay… I have gotten through to him… the voids hold has caused serious altering to his brain… I can sense he is very scared of what that monster has done to him. He is sorry for what he has been doing and is very sorry and upset for what he did to Jay and Lance…” Pixal commented upset by Zanes state and Lloyd stated having managed to get up but still unable to get Aaron who seemed to think they were having a game of tug-o-war with the sword to let go of it, “careful we don’t know how the void can infect you this way. We should make this quick to lower the chances of any risks.”

“I am sorry Zane, sadly we do not have the time, knowledge or utilities to fix what that demon and the void have done to you rate now. We will have to help you later. Hopefully I can access the programming for his sub and un-conscious inner workings to…” Pixal expressed before suddenly receiving a shock from within. Aquamarine electrical energy danced across her body before she started to develop the same markings as the others who had become corrupted by the void. As Pixal became corrupted Zanes eyes returned to the void green color as Pixal lost connection to him and he lost control returning to attacking the others; once corrupted Pixal turned on them joining the other corrupted individuals in fighting them.

“That’s it we have no other options,” Nya expressed trying to hold Pixal back and Kai inquired, “okay then how are we going to do this. Get the Stag to stab him again?”

“No I don’t trust the Stag; he hasn’t been of much help this whole fight. He’s not showing it but I think deep down this void is affecting him making him want to side with the enemy,” Lloyd expressed and Kai wondered, “then what do we do? Other than stabbing him in the heart how else do you destroy a droid whose been turned into a massive crazed dragon and if you haven’t noticed his skin is a little too hard to easily cut into and he won’t just roll over and let us stab him in the heart.”

“If we had Jay we could try to overload his heart but Jays still inside him and might not be in a condition to help out,” Nya thought aloud and Aarons one brother added, “even if he was okay it probably won’t be easy to get instructions to him.”

“True. The only other thing I can think of would be heat… we could try to destroy him or at least weaken him enough so we could more easily harm him with heat,” Nya commented and Kai inquired confused, “how is heat going to do anything to him?”

“His internal circuitry needs to be kept at a fairly stable temperature, if it becomes too hot his circuits will begin to fry. If too many get damaged especial those connected to critical functioning’s and his heart it will kill him,” Nya explained fighting to hold Pixal who was now very strong from the voids hold back having Lances sister help try to hold her back and Lloyd commented, “but doesn’t he have systems in place to prevent from overheating?”

“Yes but he’s not his normal size, he’s a very large dragon,” Nya noted and Axl thought aloud, “larger bodies have a harder time keeping cool right; they can’t release as much heat as smaller ones. I know that from experience.”

“Precisely and even though his cooling system would have been morphed to fit his current form it’s still going to be over worked given the normal functioning inside his body all of which will create quite a bit of heat plus add on that he’s been highly active which will produce even more heat and that it’s quite hot in here his cooling systems are probably working overtime to prevent him from overheating so likely won’t be able to handle another source of heat. Add on another notable source of heat and it could prove too much for him,” Nya noted and Aarons one brother questioned, “if he’s overheating will he try coating his skin in ice or eat ice cause I’ve seen him doing that.”

“If he’s having trouble keeping cool yha he sometimes does that; that’s a good sign then. If he’s already having trouble keeping cool it probably won’t take much more to overheat him,” Nya declared.

“Alright I’m on it, I’ll hit him with a volcanoes worth of heat,” Kai proclaimed before Lloyd noted, “wait won’t his skin help protect him.”

“Yes making overheating him from the outside difficult. The best option will be from the inside,” Nya stated and Kai stated not liking what he was hearing, “wait from the inside… you mean like through one of the hatches in his body right?”

“Yha but he probably won’t let us do that which means there is only one easy option…” Nya noted and Kai quickly responded unsettled by the idea, “you mean… no way!” The others fighting with them were also unsettled and grossed out by the thought of what Kai would have to do.

“It’s not the best option but it’s all we have rate now,” Lloyd noted and Kai objected, “no way, someone else can do that. I am not going to do that!”

“But you’re the only one with powers that can produce the heat needed for this task,” Axl noted and Lloyd encouraged, “Come on hot head you’re the best one for the job.” Nya added, “besides if you do your job right you won’t be in there long and it’s not like you’re going to have to pass through the rest of his system..”

“Are you sure there is no other way?” Kai inquired highly against this idea and Lloyd stated, “pretty sure.”

 “Plus if he eats you you’ll end up pretty much in the center of his body where it will be hottest. Heat it up there and the excess heat has nowhere to go but out pushing more heat to other parts of his body stressing him more. Plus the center of his cooling system is located in the same area. You get it overheated and it will short out shutting down then he’ll have almost no defence against overheating making your task easier,” Nya noted.

 “I really don’t want to do this but if there is no other way… fine. Is there anything I should know about before I you know… get eaten,” Kai expressed dreading what he was going to do but knowing it had to be done.

“Well he’s probably got a pretty wicked bite force now so try not to make him too mad. You don’t want him to crush you,” Lloyd suggested and Nya offered, “well considering he has eaten his digestive systems going to be active so it will be very dangerous in there. If at all possible try to stay out of his gastric fluids the best you can, they are far more dangerous than a humans capable of dissolving bones. If possible try to find something plastic or metal to get on. There’s at least one of the knights shields in there, try to use that if you can. Plus unless he’s altered it his metabolism is rather high making things rather active so things probably won’t be stable in there so you’re going to have trouble balancing and be knocked around a bit. Also I’m not sure what you’ll find in there brother but it probably won’t be pretty. Just try and focus on your task and nothing else or it probably won’t go good for you.”

“This is going to give me nightmares…,” Kai moaned hesitating before hitting Zane who was occupied fighting Merlok, Wu, Clay, Maya, Ray and Macys parents with Macy fighting at his side in the back of the head with a powerful blast of flame and yelling a taunt at him. This caught his attention and he turned to look at Kai baring his teeth. Kai had expected Zane to instantly try to eat him but instead he tried to hit Kai with a frosty breath. Kai dodged out of the way and again hit him with fire this time in the face while taunting him. Again Zane tried to hit him with a frost breath forcing him to dodge the attack. Kai hit Zane a few times more and kept taunting him but each time Zane wasn’t co-operating and instead kept trying to hit Kai with his ice or void breath.

“I don’t think he’s interested in a snack rate now,” Kai expressed and Lloyd wondered, “is there some way we could make him hungry?”

“Does he even feel hunger?” Aarons one brother who was still helping trying to keep Aaron from attacking Lloyd asked and Axl wondered, “maybe after eating Lance and Jay he’s full?”

“Yha I don’t think that’s it. With his size he likely has an appetite bigger than Coles,” Kai expressed and Nya noted, “as a nindroid he technically doesn’t feel hunger, he can feel full but that is a safety precaution to prevent internal damages and overfilling himself which would put a great deal of strain on his systems; he does have programming that can let him feel like and think he’s hungry; his father gave it to him to help him fit in as a human. He normally doesn't have them active when on a mission though and I doubt he’d activate them for a fight so they’re probably inactive,” Nya noted and Kai expressed, “yha that feature of him always kind of unnerved me.”

“Is there some way to activate them?” Lances sister inquired and Nya responded, “We’d have to activate them manually by hacking him and we don’t have anything to use in order to hack him… I wonder though if Dagon has activated them possibly even altering them to make him think he’s starving; it could explain why he has been eating some of these monsters. Even if it was because of Dagons or the voids influence why did he even think of eating Jay and Lance? You’d think he’d have some control when it came to his friends and would have held back on eating them. Why not just freeze the two or corrupt them like the others? Has he gone crazy?” She was still quite mad at Zane and trying to get close to attack him but Pixal was fighting her and trying to keep her away from him; likely to protect Zane from her wrath they felt.

“As Merlok said maybe it was just an accident or well you know how he can sometimes get carried away with researching and getting into a role maybe he’s getting carried away with being a dragon,” Lloyd suggested to which Kai expressed, “that’s quite a disturbing thought. Let’s hope it’s the first possibility otherwise we should be careful with what role he gets into in the future.”

“Yha, there is quite a few I’d hate to see him take on… you know he did seem pretty mad at Jay and Lance when he ate them. Both had hurt him. Maybe you have to make him mad, well madder than he already is possibly by hurting him in some way,” Lloyd opted still unable to get Aaron to let go of the sword and Kai stated, “I guess I could try that but what can I do to hurt him in a way that would make him real mad at me?” They were at a loss of what to do until while trying to avoid his ice breath Kai dodged out of the way and rolled into Pixal knocking her over. Kai quickly got up and backed away from her as she got up and tried to hit him with a magical blast. As he got up he noticed dragon Zane came to stand protectively by Pixal baring his teeth at Kai. They had all noted earlier Zane seemed to attack Pixal differently than the others. He tried to avoid hitting her or getting into direct conflict with her almost like he didn’t want to hurt her. He’d even attack any monster or Asher that attempted to or did harm her. It seemed even with being corrupted Zane still had his affections for her and wasn’t going to let the void get in the way of that or make him hurt her. They had noted the same style behaviour between Cole and Seliel and his father with Cole often trying to avoid fighting them or trying to restrain himself when they interacted with him. Macy was doing the same with her parents and Clay. Even Jestro who didn’t have a relation to much of them showed some of this behaviour being rather sparing to Clay who had always treated him as a close friend like a brother and wasn’t mean or cruel to him like many others were. The only one going against this trend in anyway was Aaron but all he was trying to do with his close friends and loved ones was bite them to make them like him not actually harm them. They had even seen their corrupted friends a few times attack those threatening those they loved or cared about. It seemed there was one thing the void had trouble destroying; love and friendship. This gave them an idea.

“Sorry about this Pix but you and Zane are not in the right states of mind rate now and I need to get him to eat me,” Kai stated focussing his attacks on her trying to overwhelm her while also trying to avoid Zanes breath attacks which were getting more aggressive. Zane was clearly getting angrier at Kai for his attacks on Pixal. Trying to get the upper hand was harder than Kai expected. Pixal managed to knock his sword from his hand forcing Kai to rely solely on his powers and martial arts which were not very efficient against Pixals sword and new found skill in dark arts. When Kai finally managed to get the upper hand he hit her with a heavy blast of flame that knocked her back several feet to land on her back stunned. By the growl roar Zane gave him muttering ‘bein-yol-jul’ while baring his teeth at him Kai could tell he had really angered Zane. Dragon Zane wasted no time in stalking close to Kai and quickly clamping his jaws onto Kai who was preparing himself feeling terrified for what he felt was about to come. Kai wanted to close his eyes not wanting to see what was coming but he was too scared and strongly fighting his instinct to run. Dragon Zane bit onto Kai picking him up shaking him a bit before swallowing him whole like he had done with Lance and Jay. Zane then turned to move to stand protectively by Pixal while she got up. Everyone else even their enemies backed up giving him space not wanting to attract his attention and get eaten as well.

“I’m okay, you’re a good boy,” Pixal stated as she got up stroking dragon Zanes head as he crouched by her protecting her till she was up. He was enjoying her affections and it looked to calm him down. The two had a brief and rather loving interaction with her giving him some comforting and reassuring words while gently stroking his head and him gently rubbing his head against her giving a low relaxed grumbling before the two got back into the fight.

“That’s kinda cute, they love each other,” Lances sister expressed while Axl noted, “that’s interesting; seems the void hasn’t taken their affections for each other away.”

“If it wasn’t for the fact they’ve been turned into monsters and he ate Jay, Lance and Kai I guess it would be kind of sweet,” Nya stated retrieving her brothers sword to fight with.

“Okay that aside now that Kais inside him how long should this take?” Lloyd inquired trying to pull his sword out of Aarons mouth as Aaron had bit and also held onto it with his clawed hands and was playing a game of tug-o-war with the sword while Axl and Aarons one brother kept trying to pull him away from Lloyd.

“Not sure but hopefully it shouldn’t take too long,” Nya noted fighting Pixal who came at her after recovering. They could see Zane charging up to hit Lloyd with a freezing blast and thinking quickly Lloyd let Aaron have the sword as he, Aarons brother and Axl backed off just as Zane let his breath go causing Aaron to get hit with the blast freezing him in dark ice. Once Zanes blast was over Aaron broke free of the ice dropping the sword to rush at Zane starting to attack him. The two began fighting with each other growling, roaring, cursing, scratching and snapping at each other till Cole intervened breaking the two up commanding to them while pointing at Lloyd and his group, “hey beast brains cut it out. They’re your targets not each other.” His words brought the twos attentions back to their group which had been joined by the rest of their allies as they came over to aid them.

“Did we just see that right? Zane has now eaten Kai?!” Ray inquired stunned to see how the fighting was going.

“No you saw right but it was on purpose this time,” Nya noted and Wu inquired confused, “in what way would there be a purpose for Kai to get eaten?!”

“In the form of a large dragon Zane is too big and powerful to get past and he won’t let us near the stairs, he’s guarding them. Our only way to get past is to destroy him. Hopefully we can still save Jay and Lance too if we temporarily destroy him like the Stag did before. He’s too tough to bring down from the outside so we have to do it from the inside. We’re going to try and overheat him and fry his internal circuits,” Lloyd explained picking back up Dawnbringer and joining the others in fighting back the enemies that now surrounded them and Nya added, “his metal hide makes it too difficult to overheat him from the outside which meant Kai had to get eaten for the plan to work. It’s in no way the safest way but it is the easiest way rate now to get inside him. Plus this method should put him in the center or close to it of Zanes body where it will already be the hottest hopefully making it quicker to overheat him.”

“That sounds like a ridiculous plan,” Clay expressed and Lloyd inquired, “do you have any other options?”

“Not really… I just hope you know what you’re doing?” Clay expressed. Cole, Macy and Jestro soon joined Zane, Pixal and Aaron along with their other enemies in attacking and trying to drive their group back from the stairs while they tried to remain close to the stairs so Lloyd could quickly get up the stairs once Zane was destroyed. At one point Zane recoiled back for a couple seconds looking to have a bit of pain in his belly before coughing up some smoke.

“That was not a good sign was it?” Skylor wondered and getting a bit worried as Zane recovered and got back into the fight Nya commented, “I don’t think so.” It didn’t give any of them good feelings and the fact nearly twenty minutes passed and nothing appeared to be happening it had them all quite worried prompting Skylor to inquire worried, “Shouldn’t something have happened by now?”

“Maybe… I don’t know… you don’t think we haven’t doomed Kai as well?” Nya worried. A few more minutes passed before they noted Zane starting to act strange. He was slowly backing off from the fighting appearing dazed and un-well. He was holding his head low, starting to breathe heavily as if trying to pant and his tail and wings were drooped. He started using his ice breathe on his body core a few times trying to build ice up on his back and belly but it didn’t seem to work. A frost would build but melt shortly after he placed it.

“I think he’s overheating,” Clay commented and Merlok noted, “using some of this Robo-bills senses I can pick up his internal core temperature and it has risen notably into dangerous levels.”

“I’ll take that as a good sign,” Nya noted getting encouraged by the news and Lloyd noted by the way Zane was moving getting worried, “I think he’s going to try and leave the area to cool down. He will likely head to the frozen zone of the first ring in the city.”

“We can’t let him do that; it’ll stop what we’re trying to do! We need to help Kai destroy him,” Nya proclaimed hitting Zane with a blast of water to the side startling him and causing steam to come off his skin where the water hit. He acknowledged her attack but clearly no longer cared or had an interest in the fight. Instead he was getting ready to take off crouching down in order to launch into the air.

“This should slow him down,” Clay declared using his magic powers to summon a spire of rock to grow up encasing Zanes one hind foot just as he went to launch up causing him to instead fall face down as he went to launch into the air. He slowly got up and instantly went to attack the rock spire biting it to slowly break his foot loose.    

“His internal temperature has gotten pretty high but we might need some more heat to speed up the process,” Merlok added.

“How are we going to do that? We don‘t have to send someone else in him do we?” Axl wondered not liking that idea.

“I do believe he is at a state where external heat sources might be sufficient,” Merlok explained and Skylor who was struggling with Wu against Cole expressed, “I could help with that I just need a break from everyone else.” Remembering Zane and Pixals reactions Nya got an idea and gave Seliel a suggestion to help Skylor get a break to attack Zane. Following her suggestion Seliel went up to Cole catching his attention by grabbing his shoulder. When he turned to look at her raising his warhammer with one hand in preparation for an attack looking to think someone else was attacking him she wasted no time in grabbing him by the front of his gi and pulling him close to kiss him on the lips for several seconds. Most of the others had expected him to just attack her not having noticed the strange pacifying ability ones loved one could have on someone who got corrupted. Instead he calmed down even letting go of his warhammer letting it fall behind him and almost seemed shocked or stunned by her actions. Even when she was done and moved away he still looked to be stunned and looked unsure what to do just standing there staring at her.

“You know that’s the first time we’ve ever actually kissed like that,” Seliel regaled while Skylor rushed off to attack Zane and Nya noted amused by Coles stunned state, “I think you broke him.” When Skylor got close to him she hit Zane in the under belly with a blast of fire. He clearly didn’t like it but was more interested in escaping than fighting back struggling from the heat. Instead their other corrupted friends attempted to intervene trying to protect him so he could escape. While struggling with Jestro Clay managed to yank Jestros staff from his hands where Seliel got an idea and took it from him. She waved the staff in front of Aaron who was trying to bite Axl while his brothers tried to pull him back catching his attention.

“Hey you overgrown mutt look what I got. You wanna play fetch? Look at the stick, see the stick. Want the stick go get the stick,” Seliel proclaimed hoping her idea would work and throwing the staff away from them. Just as she had hoped were-wolf Aaron couldn’t help but chase the staff picking it up to chew it once he got it. Jestro went to retrieve his staff getting in a game of tug-o-war with Aaron who looked to want to continue chewing the staff to Jestros displeasure.

“Sorry about this,” Clay stated hitting Macy with a blast of energy that tossed her into the ice barricade on the stairs knocking her out. Nya along with Ray, Maya and Wu were focussing on holding back Pixal who was getting more enraged that they were hurting Zane. By the noises Zane was making it was clear he was in pain and scared. Zane was starting to have trouble remaining on his feet crouching so low he was almost laying down and looking to be having trouble controlling his limbs almost collapsing a few times. It looked like quite a few of his internal systems were malfunctioning and starting to shut down as well.

“I know you don’t like this but we have to do it Pix. Don’t worry you’ll get him back,” Nya expressed as they held her back. Cole had tried to come help her but Seliel got in his way stopping him as she proclaimed, “Cole no, we have to do this.” Cole clearly wanted to attack but didn’t want to hurt Seliel leaving him torn over what to do.

Despite clearly being in a bad shape Zane managed to get into the air. He made a few weak flaps trying to hover before his body was gripped by an intense surge of electrical energy the glow in his chest from his heart getting bigger and brighter. The surge lasted for nearly a minute before he exploded into a black mist a few electrical waves moving through the fog and a frost developing over the area with the explosion.

Neil Anthony- Master of the Stars (Chance)

Ayoo a Ninjago OC/ Self Insert! Boy, aren't I cringe? I wanted to make one so badly and wanted to tie it to astrology which would be cool. So, this is my son, Neil. He joined the team post Crystallized (assuming nothing bad will happen to them while the season is airing) and he was under the control of the crystals (assuming that the crystals control people like zombies). He went to Master Wu for help to rid of the control and in addition to that, he started to train as a ninja. Unfortunately, the only thing Wu could remove was the control, sadly the crystals' power had bounded to his energy. It awakened a new ability in him, though. After a bit more research, he found out that Neil harnessed the power of stars: the ability to control or enhance chance and fate and also the ability to predict certain things. His abilities work like how you would use a skill to increase attack or defence of your team or enemies in RPG games. His abilities also effect the environment (chance of weather changes, tides, star alignments and such) but doing this takes a lot of energy, moving astral bodies by a few inches drains energy fast. Even a few inches can drastically change outcome which is why Wu trained him how to keep control.

The ninja were introduced to him at the monastery after all the events of crystallized went down and he became the new youngest of the team, being only 19 and was in charge of keeping villains at bay when the ninja are doing important missions. He was still new and so he spends most of his time training with Cole or Lloyd when they're free. Neil spends his spare time pranking and bullying Kai with Lloyd because he wanted to challenge his ego.

In combat, he would stay in front as defender with Cole because he has more defense overall (body build, embedded armor, his defence increase etc) and also because has a huge swinging axe. Though, one major problem is that he needs glasses or else he's basically blinded. When Neil gets knocked in the back of his head and his glasses fall off, the team are kinda at a loss of a defence system. He refuses to wear contacts because his eyes get irritated easily. He also has headphones on at all times while fighting, it not only makes it more fun but also because he attacks at a rhythm. The faster the song, the faster his attacks. Like DDR but he's kicking people. Neil can still hear the Ninja while fighting, obviously.

I made some sketches on what he and the team would do when they're not on missions. He and Nya would absolutely raid the pantry and drink all the alcohol available, his favourite is definitely Rhum. On his way back to the monastery from campus, he'd sleep alot on the train and miss stops all the time because he is so exhausted from fighting. Neil's favourite prank on Kai would be increasing chances of rain by 50% when Kai's outside with good clothes on or when he is on some date. It's even funnier when he doesn't bring an umbrella because they're in the middle of drought. He and Cole would talk about crystals, spiritual stuff and astrology on hours on end. He would often go shopping with Zane because the nindroid understands fashion like a critic. Neil being trans, get so much advice from Jay and Lloyd who have experience a lot about it. Jay was also nice enough to donate his binders to him too. Even though Kai is being relentlessly bullied all the time, he was still willing to forge his axe because of his big brother attitude. Every Sunday, he and Cole either bake a cake while headbanging to Metal or the girls (Pixal, Skylor and Nya) bring him and Lloyd to spa.

I think that's all I have for now. And yes, he did tell his parents he joined the ninja force, they were kinda shocked that Master Wu was willing to let him join. I might just make a comic on how this happened in some time but I think I wrote all the ideas I wanted. He did out himself to Cole when they told him that he was gay aswell so that's nice.

[the-ninja-legacy-whip]

I have a lot of questions for you :)

We know that Camelia is the future new master of Surprise in DR. Does Jesse ask the others, except Cole, for help to train her with her power like they did for Lloyd ? If so, does she have a favorite teacher among the team and a least favorite? How does she feels around Arin, Sora and Wildfire?

We know that Wildfire ends up to be close with Kai after they went for a mission together, are they going to get very close in the future? Like more like a little sister and her big bro than student/teacher ? If so, does Lloyd and Nya get jealous when they saw it ?

How does the team discover that Wildfire is the elemental master of heat ? Is it Kai that tell them or they discover another time by themselves? And how they would react about it ? Would they react the same way as when they discovered that Sora is the elemental master of technology?

Would Pixal feel a bit useless when she learns about Sora's elemental power at first ? Like she feels like she's not needed anymore for the technology tools or something or she'll grow to team up with Sora to built new mech and bound with her ?

After discovering that they're new elemental powers after the merge, does the ninjas add them in the already existing chart or they draw a whole new one ? If so, does they imagine the symbols for each of them or they take the most logic ones for each one ?

So you do, so you dooooo

Does Jesse ask the others, except Cole, for help to train Cam with her power like they did for Lloyd? -> He primarily asks Lloyd for assistance, since Lloyd a) has the most knowledge about how the Elements connect with one another, which is integral for a Master of Surprise to know, b) Lloyd himself is a descendant of Surprise as well, and c) Lloyd is technically the one in charge of this "Seventh Gen of the Alliance", so, y'know. Just keeps things consistent.

If so, does she have a favorite teacher among the team and a least favorite? -> Lloyd is her favorite, if not exceeded by Jay whenever he shows up. She thinks Nya's training is a little too intense for her though.

How does she feels around Arin, Sora and Wildfire? -> She adores Arin, even if only for his pies (which Cole considers a personal betrayal to cake), likes Sora but can get overwhelmed with her technical talk, and gets pretty catty with Wyldfyre at their worst (not unlike how Kai and Jesse were when they were younger)

We know that Wildfire ends up to be close with Kai after they went for a mission together, are they going to get very close in the future? Like more like a little sister and her big bro than student/teacher? -> I honestly don't really wanna put a solid label on their relationship; I'm just pleased that Kai gets to use his own experiences to help guide Wyldfyre in a more proactive direction without completely having her change who she is. It's such a nice direction for Kai's character to go in aaaaaaa <3

If so, does Lloyd and Nya get jealous when they saw it? Nya might, Lloyd wouldn't.

How does the team discover that Wildfire is the elemental master of heat ? Is it Kai that tell them or they discover another time by themselves? And how they would react about it ? Would they react the same way as when they discovered that Sora is the elemental master of technology? - Dunno, I get the feeling this is going to get addressed in the show itself, so I'm not gonna make a call this soon. That being said, i'm sure Kai will be capitalizing on the bragging rights for spotting the difference first (and being pleased that Fire is still technically all his, for now)

Would Pixal feel a bit useless when she learns about Sora's elemental power at first? Like she feels like she's not needed anymore for the technology tools or something or she'll grow to team up with Sora to built new mech and bound with her? -> Well, Pixal's had some insecurities about not being helpful enough before, so I could see that being a potential sticking point for her. But on the other hand, she might be equally as excited to learn about all the technical advancements Imperium has and apply them to future stuff she gets to make. And having Sora being able to match her tech-making prowess (and the speed of it) might be refreshing for her.

After discovering that they're new elemental powers after the merge, does the ninjas add them in the already existing chart or they draw a whole new one? If so, does they imagine the symbols for each of them or they take the most logic ones for each one? -> They don't have to make a whole new chart/compass, but the "Merge" Elements would get added amongst the Outlier Elements. I'd like to think that Lloyd lets the likes of Sora, Wyldfyre, Geo, and whoever else design their own symbols (but bark bark I wanna know what Zeatrix's Element was so baaaaaaaaaaaad THIS IS THE REAL QUESTION HERE–)

Venomous teachings au question:What will Wu do when it will be revealed that Lloyd is the green ninja(if he is.It would be funny and ironic if it was Nya for example)?You mentioned attempted kidnapping in one of the earlier posts.Also,when will it happen?

I haven't hammered out exactly when Lloyd is revealed as the true Green Ninja, other than it being after the Great Devourer is released and defeated (and event that starts Wu on a bit of a downward spiral), so what Wu does, and when he himself finds out aren't fully set in stone, but I have a few ideas I'm thinking of.

In VT, Garm still defeats the GD, but it's by finding his True Potential. He spent pretty much his whole life blaming himself for Wu getting bit, and everything that Wu's done bc of the Venom, and he's able to let go of his guilt and kill the Devourer.

And just like in cannon, it's known that Garmadon is the one who killed the Great Devourer. Which throws a massive wrench in Wu's plan; he had a hand in the GD getting released, and he had planned to use that to get Garm and Nya to give up the Sword of Flame. He wanted to use the chaos to draw them out and then play the whole 'the power of all four Golden Weapons is the only thing that will stop the Devourer, and I'm the only one who can use all four Weapons at once' card that cannon!Garm used. He also wanted to use that as a bit of an ego boost.

Nya and Garm both get captured after the Devourer is dead, and Wu is able to get the Sword of Flames by using Nya's life as leverage. Misako and Mystake are able to bust the two out during a very public kangaroo court """trial""".

And this is where things get messy. The ideas I'm working with are:

1) Lloyd is revealed as the GN via an accidental run-in with the Ninja. Mb they've tracked Garm, Nya, Misako, Mystake, and Lloyd to wherever they're hiding and Lloyd gets close enough to the Weapons to set them off? Something like that.

2) Lloyd is revealed as the GN in a run-in with Wu after he has the Mega Weapon, which reacts to Lloyd the same way the GW's would.

3) Lloyd is revealed as the GN minuets after Wu is defeated. Garm nearly kills himself using the Mega Weapon to defeat Wu, and Lloyd runs over to him, getting close enough to the Mega Weapon to set it off.

If I go with 1, then Wu doubles his efforts to capture Lloyd. The Ninja would be put under his spell by this point, so they wouldn't question what the whole light show was about. His main goal would be to turn Lloyd to his side through manipulation or magic, whichever works. Lloyd, as both Garmadons child and the actual GN would make a powerful asset. And if he couldn't be turned, well, he's still a very valuable hostage.

2 would be pretty similar to 1, but Wu would have gotten a bit more unhinged at that point. Like, he's gone a bit mad with power and stolen the throne and pretty much everyone has figured out 'this guy isn't actually the good guy'. In this scenario Wu would still be trying to capture Lloyd, but his goal would be to use the Mega Weapon to transfer his power into Kai, and then keep him alive just long enough to kill him in front of at least one of his parents.

And in 3, the only person who would actually notice the Mega Weapon glowing green at Lloyd would be Misako. Garm and Wu are both unconscious, Lloyd and Nya are freaking out bc Garm gets kinda messed up from using the Mega Weapon, Pixal is focused on making sure Nya isn't killed by a nasty injury of her own, and the Ninja all just got freed from Wu's spell and are dealing with the emotional and physical fallout from that. Misako is the only one holding it together enough to see the light show. Her response is to get to Lloyd and Garm, kick the MW away from both of them, and then take charge of the situation. I have no idea when (or if) she tells anyone the truth. (Also Kai might also notice. Haven't fully decided on that one yet.)

Cool!!! My entry was the Lego Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu one (with the whole name spelled out like that) that was about Kai and Zane and talked about their differences but how they were the same when it come down to it and said the whole “protective recklessly” vs “recklessly protective” thing and mentioned how Kai spoke at Zane’s funeral and how Lloyd tried to jog Zane’s memories by mentioning Kai

Here you go!

They have such a close dynamic Kai has fire magic and Zane has ice magic their ship is literally called oppositeshipping Zane is mechanical and there’s a whole season where the entire time Kai is just “I DON’T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT TECHNOLOGY OK” like straight up this man couldn’t get an automatic door to work Kai is the one who knew Zane needed space after he had the earth-shaking realization he wasn’t human (long story he used to look human + lost all his memories). Kai was the one who spoke at Zane’s funeral. Zane was the one who with a single meaningful look and head shake got Kai to stop turning the ship around to certain death. “He’s already gone. It’s too late. Don’t.” All conveyed with a single mournful look and hand on his arm, when even Kai’s sister calling for him to stop wasn’t enough to give him pause. When Zane lost his memories (again) and had been manipulated into hurting people, Lloyd was certain that Kai’s name alone would be enough to jog his memories. He didn’t say Pixal’s name, the name of Zane’s love interest, he said KAI. A difference between them that I’ve heard described by others before, something that separates them and yet is the same, is that Kai is recklessly protective, and Zane is protective recklessly. Both would sacrifice themself for their friends, for the other, without a second thought, but how they approach the situation differs. Kai charges in at the slightest hint of danger. As soon as he suspects that someone he cares for is at risk, he does whatever is necessary to keep them safe. The moment things go wrong, he’s already in motion. Zane does what he can the whole time, but it’s not until the end he gives his all. When all is lost, he’s the one to make the final move. Over and over again, he sacrifices his life for that of his friends. He’s been vaporized into nothingness, erased from spacetime, thrown into other realities, but never once does he hesitate in making sure the final blow never lands on those he loves. They contrast in so many ways. Kai is hotheaded; Zane is thoughtful. Kai is loud; Zane is quiet. They’re so different, but instead of contrasting harshly, they make an equilibrium. A balance between the harshness of fire and ice. For all their differences, at the core, they’re the same. In their hearts, they feel the same way. They love one another, and come hell or high water, fire or ice… That will never change.
