Everyone was in the dining room, eating and talking, having fun. It was then harumi went quiet and Nya noticed right away. "Harumi." she stared to say. Harumi looked at at the mention of her name. Looking at the raven haired girl who called her name. "Yes?" she asked her. "Are you okay?" The raven haired girl asked her. Harumi nodded, as she looked at her ally. She sighed as she looked at nya. "I'm sorry nya. it's just I feel terrible that Lloyd's in a room alone and we are in here having fun. I mean don't you guys feel a little bad?" She questioned. After a few seconds of silence, nya spoke up. "Honestly I agree because in a way, Lloyd brought us all together." the raven haired girl told them.
Everyone nodded in agreement. "Honestly she's right, I would of never thought to be in a team with The former Sog guards and leader. Or The serpentine, or a old pirate crew in which I was almost forced to marry. Or even captain Soto who still call us pajama men and women.". "Well aren't you pajama men and women?" Soto asked. Nya signed in frustration. "No Soto! These are gi's not pajamas." she explained to him. "They look like pajamas." Soto defended. Nya signed. "i guess they do. I mean look like that Lloyd mistaken them for pj's when he was younger.". Harumi laughed. "Are you serious?" The white haired girl questioned her. Nya nodded. "it was actually quite hilarious. He always tried to make everyone laugh even if times were tough."
"He loved making people laugh he'd dance around and his hair would fall in his face and he would fall down. Then all the ninja would laugh, but when Lloyd was younger he Hated girls he thought they had cooties. But then again I think he was eight even though we kinda can't tell how old he really is since he sorta grew older because of the tomorrow tea's innocent.". It was silent before mistake spoke up. "Is it the tea i gave you and Master Wu when you said you needed a tea that would make you older?" She inquired. The raven haired girl nodded. "That's the one alright after garmadon brought back the Grundle, the ninjas minus Lloyd turned into kids again. Lloyd sacrificed his childhood to turn the ninjas back into teenagers." nya explained. After what felt like hours of silence, harumi spoke up.
"Lloyd was actually telling me about it when we were talking on the deck. When we were looking at the stars.". Nya smiled. "That means he really trusts you. He never talks about that much. He doesn't like talking about it but he knows it was the right decision.". "Wait so Lloyd was aged?" the big man questioned. Nya nodded. "Correct." she told him. "Wait so you don't know how old lloyd is?" Ronin asked. "Yes Ronin." nya huffed. "But anyway, Lloyd has to be hungry, harumi could you bring him some food?" The raven haired girl asked. Harumi nodded, grabbing a plate and walking out.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Lloyd while he was the room, he was laying down when his communicator bleeped. "Huh?" He asked as he grabbed it. When he did, he saw it was a message from his father: Lord Garmadon. He smiled as he grabbed it from his pocket. As he read the text his eyes widened. It was a picture of him and the white haired girl hugging. Lloyd was confused on why he was hugging a enemy? It was strange. But he had to know where is came from,
"Dad." he started to say. "Where did you get that photo from"? Lloyd was confused. When the reply came back, "Oops sorry about that lloyd." came this message. "That wasn't supposed to go to you. So you can just delete it.". Lloyd's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. What did he mean by that? And why did the photo look like him and the white haired girl? He grumbled. He was gonna text something else back to his father when he heard footsteps. He knew someone was gonna come check on him, and maybe bring him food. He hoped so. He was so hungry. There was a knock at the door interrupting his thought along with a voice. "Hey Lloyd!" The voice greeted.
"It's me Harumi, may i come in?". Lloyd let out a laugh. What was this? english class? Harumi was actually a very nice girl, a sweet one too but then again, soon he has to betray her. He sighed sadly. Trying to act happy, he told harumi, "Yeah sure come on in.". With that, the door opened and there stood harumi with a plate of chicken. She walked towards lloyd and setted the plate on his lap. "I thought you were younger. Soi brought your favorite!" She explained. Lloyd smiled. "Thank you."he told her. Harumi smiled in return, "it's really no problem Lloyd." she told him. As she headed towards the door, Lloyd picked up a piece and started to eat it. It really was his favorite: honey chicken. He sighed. He couldn't help but feel like he's forgetting something. But he didn't know what It was. Then a bright light appeared and everything went bright.
~~~~~~~~~
It was a normal night on the bounty. Well not actually. It was very early in the morning when the young green ninja woke up. Lloyd yawned, waking up and stretching, When he did, he saw it was about 12AM in the morning. Deciding not to try and sleep again, he headed to the deck. Where he saw no one was there. He signed going to the edge and looking down where you could only see clouds. He yawned when suddenly, he heard voices. "Hey lloyd what you doing up?" Lloyd knew that voice and signed.
"I just woke up and i couldn't go back to sleep so i'm out here" He explained to his best friend. Kai chuckled. "Honestly we couldn't either. So i guess we all are knuckleheads eh?" He asked. The young boy laughed. The four ninja's smirked and looked at each other. Lloyd noticed and got afraid, "What are you four doing?" he questioned. The four boys didn't answer as they lunged towards the young boy. LLoyd started to run hoping to gain distance from the ninja. He slid past Zane and started to climb up the bounty walls. As he climbed, he almost slipped but managed to keep his grip. "Woah" LLoyds stumbled as he headed towards the top. When he looked down, he saw the ninja were climbing after him.
"Come on!" he thought as he climbed up. The air was getting colder and colder, he did not like that. It was so chilly and froze his feet. But he kept going, he was not gonna just quit, he was gonna make it. As he finally made it to the top, He climbed up and looked around. The sky was a navy color and you could see the clouds. It was beautiful for it still being night. He smiled as he looked around, being careful with ice on top of the bounty. As he carefully walked around, he saw they were just above ninjago city. The city was full of light and colors. It looked amazing, he loved it. He saw that not a lot of people were out but that was understable with it being like twelve something. He sighed as he looked at the city.
He knew his destiny and he absolutely hates it. He does not want to face his destiny, he wanted to be a normal kid and do whatever they do. He didn't want to have the weight on his shoulders, he wanted to normal. He wished destiny didn't choose him. He wished to be normal but his life wasn't normal, he was left at a boarding school by his mom. Bullied by the ninjas when he threatened people for candy. He sighed in hindsight, he hates his life. He just wanted to be a normal kid, he hated this. Looking everywhere, he didn't see the ninja, he thought this was strange since they following him. Looking around they were nowhere to be seen.
As he looked around, he still didn't see them. When suddenly something grabbed his foot. He let out a scream as he was know upside down and he didn't like it. Looking around he saw blue,white,black and red. He knew who it was straight away. But sighed, displeased. "Hey guys." he started to say sadly. Kai noticed he looked sad and frowned. "Hey bud, what's wrong?" kai asked noticing Lloyd's mood. Lloyd sighed. "I'm fine Kai. I promise." he said as he looked at kai. Kai lifted him up right and setted him back Into the ground. "Lloyd I don't think you are. You seem upset.". "What's wrong? Please tell us. We won't judge." Cole told him. Lloyd sighed. "I promise Cole. I'm fine.". "You're thinking about fighting your father aren't you?" Jay asked him. Lloyd nodded.
"Yeah I am. I don't want to hurt him, he's my father! and I love him.". Kai placed a hand on Lloyd's shoulder. "I know bud. But he's the enemy and you have to. I'm so sorry Lloyd. I really really am.". Lloyd sighed. "I just don't want to have the weight of the world on my shoulders. I'm only a kid. I just want a normal life.". Jay smiled. "Don't we all? we never chose this life Lloyd. Destiny chooses us and also chooses us to protect you and we promise we will protect you.". "I know Jay but..... I just want to be normal." Lloyd told him. "We know Lloyd. Here give us a hug." They all pull Lloyd into hug. "We will always be here for you lloyd. I promise no matter what because we love you so much and we care about you lloyd." Lloyd smiled. "I know kai.."he told him.
~~~~~~~~
"Come on, I think I know what will make you a little happier, come on Lloyd!" Kai said picking up the young ninja. "Kai! Put me down!" Lloyd commanded. "No way!" He told him as they all climbed down from the top. When they got down from the top, they headed down to the dining area. "Why are we are here?" Lloyd asked as he was setted down on the chair. Kai didn't answer as the other ninja took a seat down at the table. The young ninja was confused, as they all smiled not answering young Lloyd. "So Lloyd have any plans for the weekend?" Jay asked.
Lloyd titled his head in confusion. What was he talking about? All he did was train so it was trick question. "I dunno. Cole are you gonna eat cake?" Zane asked. The whole room was filled with laughter. "Don't you mess around! You know I love cake!" Cole told him. Zane shrugged. "Eh. I mean you eat cake all the time so.."Kai called as he was rummaging through the fridge. Lloyd was still confused on what he was doing. "Kai what is going on?" The young blonde asked him. "You'll see Lloyd. I promise you'll love this!" Kai promised as he looked around. Lloyd sat in silence as they all talked. Lloyd was not in the mood to talk since his uncle was gonna kill them for being up so late. He knew that they were gonna be in so much trouble and he was gonna get blamed for it and he didn't like that idea because he just wanted some fresh air. He didn't want to get dragged into any of this. He was only a kid who should of been sleeping but couldn't due to a stupid nightmare about him killing his father.
Then finally kai turned around and had plates of wings after he setted them down on a placemat for everyone, they all started eating. Lloyd look a bite at first he didn't know if he would actually like something like this? When he tried it, he actually liked it. He started to gobble them all down and when he was finished, he looked at the ninjas. Kai laughed. "I guess you were hungry Lloyd.".Lloyd nodded. Kai smiled. "Well whenever you feel alone or you have a nightmare, we all will come out here and eat wings. It can be our thing." he told Lloyd. Lloyd smiled. "I would like that very much."
~~~~~~~~~~
'Who in the name of the first Spinjitzu Master where those people?' he questioned. Why did they seem so familiar? Like he knew them? But that couldn't be he only knew these people and his father? He sighed. He missed his father so much. But he had to stay focused. He loved his father and he would not disappoint him. He would make him proud. But then again who were those people? and he felt like he knew them but he didn't know why. It was like a instinct or something... or a feeling.
Looking around, he started to settle into the bed. Tomorrow was finally the day he was getting out of this stupid room. He was so happy he was finally getting out of here because he hated being locked up. It was so annoying and it was driving him mad just sitting there. He wondered how all the resistance would feel when they find out the truth. That their precious green ninja is evil. Oh they won't know what hit them. He smiled evilly for so long, the resistance was against his father and soon he was gonna end it and he was gonna be so glad about it.
He couldn't wait to watch all their suffering in the dungeons and cries for mercy. It will be music to his ears. 'Huh I really am turning into my father.' he thought. He almost let his coverslip many times and he really couldn't afford that he needed to make his father proud or else he was just a waste of space. No, that will not happen. He will make his father proud of him. He was the son of the dark lord so he had to just like him. Despite him not looking like his father, he could still be like him. He was not gonna disappoint his father.
Even if he felt like his father is already proud of him, Lloyd felt like that wasn't true and inside he was really disappointed with him. He sighed, looking at the moon. It was getting late so maybe he should head to bed so tomorrow he was ready to get out and get fresh air. Despite being evil, the blonde loved nature, all the peace and quiet, all the animals, it was all so beautiful. He smiled as he looked at the night sky. He didn't know why but he vaguely remember being outside on a deck with the white haired girl.
But that doesn't make sense he didn't and he wouldn't bond with an enemy, his father would be mad. He sighed. 'why did life have to be so complicated?' He thought to himself as he looked at the dark room. He sighed, probably figuring he should head to bed Tomorrow was his freedom. He looked out the window one more time and whispered. "I love you dad. Goodnight."
~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile, everyone else was on the deck talking. When harumi joined up with them, Nya smiled, "hey harumi how did he like honey chicken?" She asked. Harumi smiled as she sat down. "He loved it but I didn't know he liked honey chicken.". Nya laughed. "Yeah the ninja made it for Lloyd when he was feeling down and such. He never missed to eat it. It's his favorite food." she explained. Harumi smiled again. "I bet he's glad to finally be out of that room tomorrow." she told them. "Karlof agrees. Green ninja must've felt like prisoner locked up in that place." The master or metal joined in. " I don't blame him. It must of been so boring but I'm glad he's okay since garmadon basically beat him up." neuro told her. "Yeah but look on the bright side, we have our leader back!" Dareth cut in. Nya smiled in agreement. "That is correct Dareth! I'm glad he's back."
"Although did anyone notice Lloyd acting strange?" Ultra Violet asked. Addressing the group everyone murmured. "I mean he has been. But isn't that the typical Lloyd?" Killow asked. "I mean I guess. But I feel like he's acting very strange. I mean what do you think?" Tox asked. "I've known Lloyd as long as I can remember and he always acts that strange. I can promise you that." she told them. "To me this behavior is actually kinda normal to me. I don't notice anything different." Nya explained. "I agree with young Nya." Mistaké spoke up. "If she is saying Lloyd is normal then he's normal so let's just drop the subject please." she begged. Everyone nodded. "So anyway I can't believe garmadon would do that. I mean I know he's the dark lord but I feel like he's getting more dark." Pythor said. Harumi nodded. "Trust me, when we worked for garmadon, he was famous for his sudden outbursts for no reason. I mean Lloyd dropped this photo of him and his father and Lloyd dropped it back at borg tower."
"I was looking at it, trying to remember where I saw the picture when garmadon came in. Asking where I got the picture, I told him the green ninja and he exploded in anger ripping up the photo to pieces." harumi told them. "Woah he did that?" Misako asked, surprised that garmadon would do that. harumi nodded. "we all were so scared of him and I was too. But you can't blame us. He's the dark lord and—-" she started to say, when whimpering was heard. Everyone looked around at each other trying to find the source when harumi realized who it was: "Lloyd!" She exclaimed as she ran towards the room Lloyd was in the others following close behind her.
~~~~~~~~
When they got into the room, they busted in and they saw Lloyd. Who was whimpering and looked like he was sweating and he was murmuring something under his breath. "Oh no!" Nya groaned. Running towards him, checking his vitals. "I think he's having a nightmare!" Nya told them. "How can you be so sure?" Tox asked. Nya went over to her laptop and started to type something on the thing. When the results came in, Nya gasped. "Nya what's wrong?" Skalidor asked. Nya turned the laptop around to show everyone what was on it. Everyone went pale for it was the fight between father and son. "Uh no! We have to wake him up!" Killow told everyone.
"N-no.. please stop.." Lloyd murmured in his sleep in panic. "I think it's getting worse." Stella observed. "How can we stop it?" Misako asked in fear of her son. " I don't know." The water ninja admitted, "it's hard to wake someone from a nightmare so I don't even know if it would work with waking him up.". "How are are going wake him up?" Harumi asked. "Like I said I don't know If we can. If we do, we might hurt him. I read a book about it and the results of walking the person up and they died."
Lloyd whimpered again, "what are we gonna do? I don't like seeing him like this." misako told them. Nya sighed. "I want to help him too but I don't think there's any way we could without us hurting him and we don't want to hurt him.". "So what do we do?" Pale man asked. Nya looked around as she was thinking what could help Lloyd, "I don't think there's any tea for this right Mistaké?" Nya asked. She nodded. "unfortunately that is correct Nya. But there has to be something we can do.". More whimpers were heard from Lloyd and Nya could tell the fight was getting worse.
She sighed: " I don't know what to do.." she admitted. "What I do know is we have to help Lloyd." she told them, determined. It was then a idea came into Nya's mind. "Wait! Neuro ofcourse you're the master of the mind!" Nya exclaimed. Neuro was at first confused but the knew what she was thinking. "I believe that could work. Nya." neuro told her. She nodded. "Alright neuro are you sure your up for this?" Nya asked. He nodded. As he then was transported into Lloyd's mind.
As Neuro searched around the prison, he heard fighting and he went towards it. When he got there, he saw the fight between father and son. He felt sad, but he knew he couldn't interfere unless things got very bad. As he watched the fight he couldn't help but feel bad with what Lloyd went through. He didn't deserve this at all. Soon enough, he looked around and he saw garmadon grab Lloyd by the neck and he knew what was coming and he was right. After garmadon told Lloyd he had no son he threw the ninja through four walls. He felt empathy for the ninja and soon he was back into the room. He groaned. "so is lloyd gonna wake up?" Nya asked. He nodded. "he will wake up in 3....2...1" Neuro was saying as a gasp was heard underneath the blankets.
"Lloyd." harumi started as crying was heard. "Please go away!" Lloyd said in between sobs. Harumi looked at Nya who nodded. Everyone went out of the room. Except the two girls. Nya started to unhook the monitors while harumi took out everything else. Lloyd's sobs were reduced to sniffles as he came out of the blanket. "what's going on?" He asked. The two girls smiled. "Your time in here is over. You get to go out of this room! Aren't you happy?" Nya asked. Lloyd nodded.
"Yes I am." he answered as the two girls were done unhooking him from the things. Once done, harumi smiled. "here let me help you up." she offered to him. Lloyd smiled and accepted as the white haired girl helped him up. Lloyd stubbles but caught himself as he stood up with harumi's help. Lloyd went quiet, "you okay?" She asked, him. Lloyd nodded. "I'm fine he told her.". Harumi smiled, "good." she told him. She helped him out of the room with Nya's help.
~~~~~~~~~
The next morning, pixel was gonna train with Lloyd as they did before although, Nya hoped there were better results. Lloyd fights P.I.X.A.L. and her Samurai Mech. As Lloyd is dodging her attacks, Nya calls to him. "Lloyd! remember what I told you before, you can use your power, you must embrace it and find it within!". Lloyd nodded as he dodged Pixal's attack, "Come on." Lloyd grunts as p.I.X.A.L. restrains him with chains, and throws him into the bounty. "Sorry, too much?" Pixal asked as she got out of her mech. "A little bit pix." nya told her. As she sighed, she turned to face everyone. "I guess training is over for today.". Everyone sighed knowing Lloyd wasn't gonna come out of his room any time soon.
Harumi sighed. "Has he done this before?" She asked, nya nodded. "Yes. I want to help him but how am I supposed to do that?" Nya asked. Harumi sighed. "There has to be something we can do." she told nya, who shook her head in reply. "I don't think so harumi. When ever lloyd gets like this, he gets mad and angry at himself. There's rarely anything we can do.". Harumi looked down she wanted to help Lloyd she felt so useless. She sighed, "when do you think he'll come out?" Harumi asked. Nya shrugged. "Hopefully soon."
