Down For The Count (A Lego Ninjago Kai Fanfiction)

Chapter 23: Boss Battle

He launched himself at Garmadon, who wasn't expecting this, and managed to get a few punches and kicks on him. As he came out of the tornado he elbowed Garmadon in the middle of his back and he fell to the floor.

Garmadon: "Ack-"

Another loud scream came from Kai as Lloyd's head snapped towards him.

Lloyd: 'I need to get to the lever and turn the machine off!'

So Lloyd ran towards the direction of the lever as fast as he could, but he felt a painful punch in his right side.

He yelped as he fell to his knees, and looked up at Garmadon.

Garmadon: "You really think you can beat me? Guess again."

Lloyd didn't have enough time to react as he was punched in the face and he backed away from Garmadon, who moved closer to him.

Garmadon delivered another kick to Lloyd's chest, as he prepared to give the final blow.

Garmadon: "You see? You've lost Lloyd! There's no hope-"

But before Garmadon could finish that sentence, he heard some hissing from behind him.

He quickly turned around to see his machine powering down, and a black haired girl stood there holding the lever, which was now turned off.

Garmadon: "WHAT?! NO! Stupid water ninja! I was so close!"

He realised that there wasn't really anything left for him to do here, so he decided he should probably get out of there.

Garmadon: "Rgh... This isn't over ninja! I'll be back! Just you wait..."

But before anyone could do anything, he suddenly vanished into thin air.

Nya ran to Lloyd to make sure that he was okay, because she could see some blood slowly dripping down his face.

Lloyd: "N-no... help Kai first."

Nya looked at him with concern, before she nodded at him and ran towards the glass tube. She pulled open the door and quickly ran up to her brother.

Kai: "H-hey sis..."
Nya: "Shh... save your strength..."

She grabbed one of his arms and put it around her neck so she could gently pull him out of the tube up against a wall, making sure he was comfortable. She looked as him with worry but he gave her a reassuring smile, which she couldn't help but return.

Then she walked over to Lloyd and helped him sit up against the wall too. They were both beat up and looked exhausted. She then tuned into her thoughts on what she could do next.

Nya: 'I can't carry both of them back like this... I'm going to have to wait a few hours until they have more of their strength back. How did Kai even end up here in the first place?...'

She then looked down at the two boys.

Nya: "Hey Kai-"

But once she saw them, she couldn't help but smile. Kai was asleep with his head on Lloyd's shoulder, while Lloyd had his head on Kai's head. And even though they looked like they were both in a bit of pain, she could see a small smile forming on both of their lips.

Nya: 'Aw... I can't believe I wanted to stop these two from getting together.'

As she looked at the boys again, she decided that she would clean them up a bit while they were unconscious so they would be ready to leave once they woke up.
