Still by Your Side -||Lloyd x Reader||-

" This way!" Lloyd pointed as we ran away. Nadakhan clones following us. We tried to fight them off as we ran away. " There's too many!" Cole shouted as djinn clones circled around us. A clone came right at us but was hit by Dogshank's anchor thing. " Need help?" She asked us, punching away a clone. " Glad to see we're not alone in this," Kai threw fireballs at the clones as Flintlocke joined. 

"The only thing good about this situation is being able to knock him out more than once," Flintlocke commented as we used our elements. " Come on. We have to find a way back to Ninjago." Kai told us and we ran away. Jay tried to speak and zapped Lloyd to get our attention. " Jay's pointing to the Misfortune's Keep." Lloyd said after seeing what Jay was pointing to. Jay ran off. " There he goes, we should probably follow him." I add and rushed after Jay.

"What's gotten into him?" Cole questioned as we followed Jay. " Let's find out," Lloyd added. We reached the edge of the island where a bunch of sky mines were. " I hope you know what you're going, Jay." Cole said a bit scared. Jay used Airjitzu to get on top of a sky mine. " He does know those are highly explosive?" Flintlocke questioned. " Tread lightly," Kai added. Dogshank looked behind all of us and saw the djinn clones. " You might want to hurry up," She warned.

We all used Airjitzu to get across them while Flintlocke and Dogshank jumped and pulled each other. The Nadakhans were getting closer and Kai sent his hand on fire. " Careful, no elements. If one of these blows, they could all go up in flames." Lloyd wanted him. Kai put out his hand. The clones tried to grab us but we managed to escape. Flintlocke and Dogshank made it on the ship.  "This will be close. Be ready to shoot when they get here." Dogshank told the man. 

"Shoot? I can't even hit the broadside of a bar, remember?" Flintlocke reminded her. " Oh, right." She broke her anchor from the chain. Flintlocke got her to wait until we got on before throwing her anchor. The anchor hit a mine and the whole thing exploded. Every single one. The clones were defeated and the ship was unharmed. We cheered. "But my sister's still down there. And I'm gonna save her." Kai looked at us. " Yes, Kai, never leave a ninja behind. And we never will. But we are running out of time."

"You pretended to be her to trick me. Clever girl. But clever can only take you so far. I wish...for my love to return. " Nadakhan circled around Nya before resurrecting Delara using Nya's body. "Delara? Is it finally you?" He asked. " My darling, you have done it. Oh, what trouble you must have been through." Delara spoke through Nya.

Zane tried to remove the metal plate from Jay's mouth as Dogshank told us what happened. " He banished them right before our eyes." She told us. " Fear not, Buttercup. We all know the realms we came from were a lot more welcoming than this world's ever been." Flintlocke patted her hand. " But how are we supposed to stop him? Without the poison, we don't stand a ghost of a chance." Cole this is the 100th time you have made that pun.

" Ugh, Cole. How fucking long are you gonna keep saying that?" I cross my arms. "If Nadakhan gets his way, not long." Way to add the poison to the sundae. "Maybe it's best if we keep our distance," Dogshank suggested. " But that's my sister he's got," Kai remarked. " Kai's right. We have to do something. But what?"Lloyd questioned. Zane fell back as he finally got the plate off Jay's mouth. " WE HAVE THE POISON!" Jay shouted.

" Oh, boy, that really hurt." Jay rubbed his mouth. " I thought the poison was gone long ago." Kai was confused. " Thanks to Clancee, it's right here." Jay grabbed the dart from a locker. "And you still have your wish." Cole added, excited. " I do. But if there's anything I learned, it's that wishing for something won't make it come true. We all tried to get something from Nadakhan, and look what happened." 

" It only made him stronger," Lloyd added. "  Right. But if we really want something, don't wish it to happen, make it happen." Jay continued. " And how do we suppose we get close to the pedo?" I put my hand on my hip. " Maybe one of us doesn't have to get close." Jay looked at Flintlocke, " Me?" "You can take the shot from far away. Once he's weakened, we'll do the rest." Jay smiled.

"But I can't even shoot water in an ocean." Flintlocke remarked. "According to Nadakhan. But he never held the real power. We did." Jay said. " Uh, I don't follow." Kai was confused. "All his wishes, he could never make them on his own. He needed us to make them come true. Just like when I wished to be rich, he tried to convince me my dad died. But that wasn't my real dad. My real dad lives with my mom, happy in the junkyard." Jay explained.

"That's true," Cole commented. "And how did he manage to capture the greatest ninja this world has ever seen?" "  We all wished ourselves away. He's right. It's worth a shot, Flintlocke." Lloyd added. We all looked at him. " If what you're saying is really true, then let's see if I've still got my mojo." Flintlocke took out his gun and managed to shot a coin.

" If you want something bad enough, you can make it happen." Lloyd smiled. " Wise words, old man." I snicker. " (Y/n)." Lloyd glared at me. Flintlocke loaded his gun with the dart, "Just give me a clear shot." " Leave that to me." Jay told him.
