•The World Isn't Ending• (Cole x Reader)

🎭~Rumi~🎭

I nodded taking Jays place. "Here I will try the panel here, you go work on something else. Before you have another freak out."

Jay nodded in defeat walking away to work on another part. I open the panel, adjusting some of the wires.

"I wonder if Lloyd and Rumi are okay." Cole said trying to spark a conversation

I scoffed shaking my head as sparks came from the panel. "Does everyone here call her Rumi?"

"It's just a nickname." Jay replied then started having a fit of laughter. "Hehe, Y/n is jealous of Rumi." He said in between laughter.

"What?" I say reaching for the screwdriver next to me. "All I want to say is it's weird... you know."

"Uh huh right. What's so strange about her?" Kai asked smugly

"I mean she is always asking questions about personal ninja information. Like where our base is." I point out working with the screwdriver

"She just curious." Cole defended

"Yeah Y/n what are you trying to say?" Jay asked intrigued

"Nothing just forget it." I shake my head setting the screwdriver down

"Lloyd and Rumi are fine. They don't seem to have any trouble looking out for each other." Kai said

"Yeah, they've gotten pretty close. Pass the wrench?" Cole asked

"Got the wrench?" Kai questioned me and Jay

"Jay has it." I reply

"Wrench coming your way." Jay responded throwing the wrench

"Lloyd has the hots for the princess. Huh. If things keep heating up, I wonder what we'll have to call him next. The Royal Green Ninja?" Kai asked as I rolled my eyes continuing my task. "Pliers." Kai then says but no one moves. "Pliers?" He repeats

"I don't have the pliers." I say until I see a hand giving me the pliers. "Oh, thank you." I reply moving from my spot to throw Kai the pliers. But gasped when I saw the baby it was bigger then before... he just giggled at me. "Cole? I thought you put the baby down for a nap." I bring up

"You mean little Cole Jr.? I did, but he was pretty restless." Cole commented

"Uh-huh. Yeah. Then why is little Cole Jr. standing in front of me and passing me the pliers?" I ask slowly

"Uh..." Cole trailed off as all the ninja gather around me. "Cole Jr. is walking now? I don't know much about babies, but are babies supposed to walk?" Cole asked

"No. No they are not. And I don't think they know what pliers are." Kai said as the baby blows on a cup of tea to cool it, then drinks it.

"And they definitely can't do that." I add watching him in disbelief. Zane comes out upon hearing all the commotion

"Okay, now I've seen it all. Now I really quit." Jay stated

"Ah. Ninja never quit." The baby tells with a laugh

We all gasp and Jay shakes his head. "Uh, guys, I don't think that's Cole Jr. That's Master Wu!"

"Master Wu?! No way!" I dismiss

"Master..." he sips his tea "...Wu."

"Okay so maybe it is him. But how did he get so...young?" I ask and the baby walks over to me raising his arms. I sigh before picking him up.

"Hehe. Who knows? He's a living fortune cookie. Everything he does is a puzzle meant to torture us!" Jay yelled

"Maybe we'll never know." Cole replied

"Kai you told me he was touched by the Reversal Blade when he disappeared in time, right?" I bring up swaying the baby from side to side as he tugged my hair lightly while giggling

"So?" Kai replied

"So what if the Blade did more than stop his aging? What if it somehow made him younger? Like really young." I explain

"If your assumption is correct, logic would dictate that he would begin aging more rapidly once the effects of the blade have worn off." Zane informed

"So that explains how a baby can learn to walk overnight, but how long until he's, you know, back to good old Wu? I mean, no offense. You look good for your age." Jay commented turning to us

"Time will tell." Zane answered

He began pulling harder on my hair. "Okay! Ow!" I groan removing his hands from my hair. "Time to see Cole." I coo smiling and lifting the baby in the air, successfully passing him to Cole

***

The Sons of Garmadon approach the Bounty.

"How soon till we get outta here?" Kai asks

"Not soon enough." P.I.X.A.L. goes to her mech.

"P.I.X.A.L., what are you doing?" Zane asked

"Slowing them down." P.I.X.A.L. responded

"She can handle herself." Nya assured Zane. "We need to get this ship in the air. All hands on deck." Nya ordered

"The timing of their arrival is unfortunate. We have not yet had a fully successful engine test." Zane put in

"Fully successful? It blew up in my face!" Jay yelled

"Uh, in our faces." Kai pointed out

"Let's not argue over the details." Nya replied

"I worked on the thruster, so maybe Nya if you can get the computer on it might work." I announced as she nodded

***

The ninja cheer when the computers turn on.

"Thrusters?"

"Seventy percent."

"System?"

"She'll live. Get us in the air. Wait, what about P.I.X.A.L.?" Kai asked looking around

"I said it already: she can take care of herself." Nya replied

"What's that?" I ask pointing to the computer screen.

"The trace program the computer was running to find the Quiet One's location. It's finished, but that's odd. It says it originated from the Bounty." Nya informed in confusion

"But that-that can't be." Kai stuttered

"Yeah, that's impossible." Cole replied

"Not impossible." I say in fear for Lloyd.

"Harumi's the Quiet One." Nya breathed out

"We must warn Lloyd immediately." Zane replied as Nya tries to start the ship but Ultra Violet interrupts her.

"Ah-ah-ah. I wouldn't do that if I were you." Ultra Violet said as the Sons of Garmadon surround them. "The Quiet One wouldn't like that."
