Lloyd slowly opens his eyes and got blinded by a bright light above him. He winced but then tries to allow his eyes to get used too the light. When he can finally see clearly he looks around and realizes that he's in a hospital bed. He has and IV attached to his arm and tube  hanging from his mouth. There was a heart monitor attached to his chest as well. Lloyd sit up in the bed he's in and frowns. He's only ever been in a hospital once, it wasn't a pleasant experience. He hears the door opening  and whirls around. It was a nurse. She looks surprised to see Lloyd awake.

"Oh hello Mr. Garmadon-"

"Please just call me Lloyd..." the two stared in silence for a moment.

"Right, so it good that your awake but it's surprising to. We thought you'd be asleep for a least another 2 weeks" she said. Lloyd looks at her in surprise.

"Didn't I just get hit in the side? Wait how long have I been out."  The nurse looks cautiously at him hesitant to answer.

"3 weeks..."

"Three weeks!" 

"Yes," she continues,   "It's because the blade you were hit with was covered in a poison that spread fast through you body. Doctors were able to get it out your system but it already had done damage. So due to your lack of energy and prior injuries you went into a coma and were expected to be out for a few months." Lloyd was stunned. Though it wasn't his first time being attacked, no one really came this close. Even when he was a child most people who tried stopped out of morality. The nurse bows slightly then leaves. Lloyd looks out this window of the room and stares at the busy streets. He had nothing else to do. He felt the same way he did the first time being in a hospital. Cold, alone and empty.

The door to Lloyd's room bursts open, making Lloyd jump. Misako rushes in, sweat dripping down her face. Behind her was Coco, who had looked like they just got out of bed. They're curled brown hair frizzy and wild. Both were panting heavily. Lloyd looked at them in surprise but then put his hand to his mouth and snorted.

"You two look like you just ran a marathon." He snickers. Instead of getting annoyed, the two took on relieved smiles and ran up to embrace Lloyd. He smiles and hugs back. The warmth came back to Lloyd as he gets cuddled by his mother and aunt
(Called Coco Auntie once and it stuck).  When the break away, The two sit next to Lloyd's bed.

" Lloyd are you ok?" His mother asks. A hint of worry still in her eyes.

"I'm fine mom. Though I've been better," Lloyd answers with a tired smile plastered on his face. In reality his body was still aching. He was barely able to sit up. "Where's dad and Uncle Wu?"

"We made Garmadon stay home since the city still hasn't gotten used to him yet. Wu stayed with him to make sure he stayed put." Coco answers. Lloyd smiles sadly. He knew that his dad had learnt why he had gotten attacked. He probably was swimming in guilt. Garmadon had already cause so much pain to Lloyd and Misako. He knew this, and he's been trying a lot since reforming. Lloyd appreciated it a lot.

"Are Junior and his family ok?"

"Yeah they're fine. They were worried a lot, Junior wouldn't stop crying." Misako answers .

"Oh no..."

"Neither would his mom. It was adorable really-" chuckles Coco. The comment got them a hard nudge from Misako. All three then started laughing. Throughout the week Lloyd got visits from his mother, Coco, his friends, and even Junior's family. Junior's dad came and thanked Lloyd for saving his children. Lloyd later learned that Junior's parents had divorced when Junior was barely one. He and Finna didn't seem to mind it as their parents were still on good terms and they still were, in a way, a family. On his 8th day in the hospital he received a different visit.
