I suddenly wake up to see a bright light, and clouds in the sky above me.

This..isn't the Bounty...

I sit up only realize I'm sitting in a grassy flower field.

I hear a voice behind me...

"Hello again, grandson."

~~~
Third Person POV

"..grandfather?"

"Hello, Lloyd."

He now remembers this place. From when he-

...died...

The FSM offers his hand and helps the green ninja to his feet. He man's expression is unreadable, but a form of disappointment lies within him.
"I figured you wouldn't be this wreckless, green ninja."

...he was right.
Lloyd did this on purpose.
He was wreckless, but-

"I- I didn't know it would be this bad-" he stutters, a few years spilling out of his eyes. He hadn't even seen it all yet but....he feels...bad.
"...I didn't know they cared about me this much."

"You must be humoring me, right?" His tone was more, annoyed.
As he should be.

"Y-You have no idea how much they don't care about me!"

This was...a bit justified.

With everything going around lately, nobody had a chance to talk to him. Let alone care about how he was feeling. He felt..alienated.

'They don't care...why would they? I'm nothing special, just-'

"I beg to differ."
The FSM waves his staff in the form of a circle, revealing the ninja greifing over Lloyd's limp body.

Kai is hugging him for dear life, begging him to wake up, Misako is on the floor with a hand clasped over her mouth, holding her son's hand with the other. Nya is trying to get her brother off of Lloyd, but the sight of it all is too much and she cries into Jays shoulder. Cole, Zane and Pixal are just standing there, still crying but the bots do not move at all as the brown ninja clings to the wall.

Suddenly from outside, Wu falls over, his stick being the only thing keeping him from faceplanting into the wood. He's crying.

Soon the white ninja falls backwards, seemingly emotionless face as he sees that he failed. He doesn't say a word, but Pixal understands clearly, and she's crying herself.

Lloyd is forced to watch his friends and family- whom he thought could care less about his state- sobbing and so distraught by something that he saw as an escape.

"Do you understand now?"

"P-Please...make it go away...send me back..."

(so Uhh- idk how to write the rest of this- and it's like 12- anyways here's what Happened;)

He gives him another chance with a new element/thing, what the FSM calls Lifelight. It will make sure he doesn't do Wreckless things like this anymore. He takes it, and as soon as he does he wakes up, coughing. Kai kisses him, not caring about the blood and they hug as everyone takes in what happened. Wu doesn't go join them, but regains his composure, and looks off into the distance, smiling.
