A New Beginning (Lloyd x reader)

Chapter 33

"Yeah. That's her." Cole told as he looked through a telescope. 

"We have to go down and save her." We quickly said. 

"No, we have to get the Dragon Armor. In case you've forgotten, they don't have the map, and we do." Kai showed Wu the map. 

"Kai is correct. And it appears this could be a trap." Zane pointed out to us. 

"Oh, really? Really? It takes a Nindroid to figure that out? Eh, sorry, Wu, but we can't go out there. If we want to go home, we need to find the Firstbourne's nest." Jay told Wu as he looked down the ground. You knew how he felt, you've been there before. 

We took the telescope Cole was holding and used it to look for himself. 

"Well, maybe more of his memories came back. Something that could help us in a situation like this." Cole suggested. 

"Is that true? Do you remember more?" Kai asked Sensei Wu. 

"I can't lie, they haven't. But my father told me I have to have faith, and without her, we would have never gotten this far. Besides, ninja never leave friends behind." Wu sighed but told us anyway. 

"And we've got your back," Kai said and patted Wu on the back. 

We all took out weapons and started walking slowly towards Faith, who had been buried in the sand well up to her neck. 

"They must have left her here for the elements to finish her off." Sensei Wu said and walked closer to her. 

We lifted her hat and saw it was indeed Faith. 

"Are you okay?" He asked and removed the gag from her mouth. 

"You should not have come. It's a trap." As soon as she told us that, other Hunters shot out of the sand and surrounded us. 

"And... it's a trap." You heard Jay say and heard a thump, you looked and saw he had dropped his mace. 

The Hunters captured and bound you guys, and it soon got dark. The Hunters surrounded the fire they had made and celebrated because now they had Sensei Wu. 

"Hahahaha. Eat up, Hunters! We have the Son of the First Spinjitzu Master. By first light, with him by my side, the Firstbourne will gladly give up the rest of the Dragon Armor. Then, it will be a feast, every night!" Iron Baron said and Every Hunter cheered. 

"Could you pass a roasted lizard stick up here? I'm hungry too. No? No takers? Oh, that's okay, I'm-I'm kind of watching my figure anyway. Heh-heh." Jay shouted to the Hunters, but they were too busy with their own celebration that they didn't hear him at all. 

"I'm sorry. I thought I was doing the right thing, but I've only made it worse." We apologized for his actions.

"Hmm. Your heart is pure, but this realm is cruel. I am just sorry you ever had to find this place." Faith told him. 

"I don't sweat a little, Wu. We've seen worse. Any moment, Zane will have cut through the vines, and we'll be out of here." Kai reassured him. 

"Um, I cannot cut through these vines, Kai. Perhaps, there is another alternative you were thinking of?" Zane told Kai and asked for another idea. 

"But, Zane, I'm the good looks of the team. You're the brains." Kai told him. 

"I thought I was the looks." Jay gasped when he heard that. 

"No...you're the annoying one," Cole told him.

While Everyone, including Sensei Wu, was firing jokes around, you had been trying to wiggle yourself out of the chains. You had tightened your muscles all you could when they bound you. So when you relaxed, they would loosen a bit. You couldn't get your slightly swollen stomach over, so you had to go under. Dangerous, but it was the only option you had at the moment 

Slowly but surely, you wiggled yourself free without The Hunters knowing, you didn't even think the guys noticed. 

You had barely wiggled yourself out when you heard Iron Baron approaching you guys. You quickly grabbed the chain and held them up, so it looked like you were still chained. 

"What is so funny?" You heard Iron Baron shout. 

"What is funny is you feeding them this food, to cover the taste of your lies." You heard Faith tell him, but Iron Baron only laughed at her. 

"Heyeh-Hahahahaha. Well, I'd rather be eating food with them, than stuck on a pole with you." Iron Baron laughed along with The Hunters. 

"He only cares for himself. If he gets the armor, he'll not need for you except to kiss his hand!" Faith told The Hunters the truth, and they gasped when told this news. 

"Hahaha. Hahaha. Let me ask them, Heavy Metal. How can you believe anything she says when she hid behind a mask?"Iron Baron argued with her, and you could hear the other Hunters talking and arguing. 

"Yeah, yeah, that's true. That is definitely not what I had expected." You heard Daddy no Legs loud and clear. 

"It's he who is the fraud! He forced me to wear the helmet, just as he forced you to be his slaves!" Faith told them even more truth. You could see what was going on, but you could imagine they were shocked. 

"We have all heard Baron's stories about how he had fought an army of Oni. Well, look around! We are on Oni land, and yet has anyone seen a single one?" Faith questioned The Hunters. They rubbed their neck and heads and admitted they haven't. 

"No. You have not, because his stories are just that. Stories! The Oni left these lands long ago, yet he keeps you in fear of them. His power over you is built on lies! Brave Hunters died so that he could get the Dragon Blade. How do we know it was not him, who took their lives?!" Faith shouted and you could hear whispering. 

"Not another word!" Iron baron shouted and everyone shut up immediately. 

"Now, a show of hands. Raise them if you're with her, so I can raise my Dragon Blade to lock them all!" Iron Baron shouted to The Hunters but raised their hands out of fear. 

"That's not fair! You bullied them!" Jay shouted at Iron Baron. 

"I said, "Not another word!" Iron Baron shouted and turned on the machine under us. Electricity ran through us, and we all laughed because it tickled. You were less affected since you were just holding the chains. 

"I remember. I remember it all." You heard Wu said, and he broke free of his restraints. 

"Y/N!" He shouted and you knew what to do. 

"Already on it!" You said and threw down the chains and jumped down next to him to fight alongside him. 

"Oh my gosh! He just grew a mustache." Jay shouted, and you looked at Wu and saw he was right. Wu stroked his new beard. 

"And a GOATEE!!" Jay shouted. 

"Well, Aren't you a handsome man all of a sudden?" You smirked and got ready to fight. 

"Get them!" Iron Baron shouted. One Hunter tried to attack you and Wu, but Wu stepped forward, grabbed their staff, and used it against themselves. He took their staff and their hat landed on top of his head, sporting the original look we all knew and loved from him. 

"You will let my ninja go, or else." Wu threatens The Hunters.

" Or else what?" Iron Baron asked as the rest of the Hunters stepped forward. 

"Or else I will reclaim my Father's armor and ask his Dragon to end your rule. I am the Son of the First Spinjitzu Master, and this is my oath!" Sensei Wu shouted and got ready to attack Iron Baron. 

"Alright! Master Wu's back, baby!" Jay shouted with pure joy. You were happy for him, too, but knew when to step back. This was his fight and not yours.
