Someone Like You (Lloyd x Reader)

Chapter 2 - 5th Ninja

As Cole, Zane, Jay and I sneak around the monastery in our black gi's, we reach the far left roof and make our way in. We find that we've entered in through Sensei Wu's room first so we climb up to the top of the wooden beams where they're supporting the roof and make our way through the monastery without waking anyone. Finally reaching our destination, I spot another older boy, probably the same age as everyone else, and grab the other ninja's attention pointing towards the boy in red pyjamas.

"Oh yeah? We'll take this!" The boy in red pyjamas talks to himself then begins waving around his toothbrush as if it were a weapon. I snicker a little at his childishness and then become silent again as we all make our way down to the floor without him noticing.

The boy then starts spinning around as if he were trying to do spinjitsu. And to be honest, although I haven't seen anyone done it, I'm pretty sure he's failing terribly.

As Jay is the first one to land on the ground, he takes out his nunchucks quietly and gets into his fighting stance. We all copy in an order where Zane takes out his shurikens, Cole takes out his scythe, and I grab my bow from my right shoulder. The boy dances around a little longer until he points his toothbrush at Cole. He instantly stops dancing and we all crowd around him ready to attack.

"Oops." Is all the boy in red pyjamas says as he quickly realises his mistake. But even as quickly, he begins to fight back and throws the toothbrush in Zane mouth, with his mask still on, making his head vibrate then spits into Jay's face then rebounds and ends up in the back of Cole's gi giving him somewhat of a massage. I go over to Cole and take the toothbrush out before we all chase after the brown spiky haired man. I figured he's climbed the wooden beams so I get up there first, with a small boost from Cole, and start chasing him. Zane then surprises him as he jumps from the bottom, straight onto the wooden beams. He goes into kick the boy but he moves out of the way just in time which consequently, leads to him falling back to the floor. Cole is then able to kick him threw the roof to which he then follows.

From the ground, Zane, Jay and I follow both boys. Unfortunately for us though, the older boy knocks his head on a sculpture of a dragon revealing a button which he then presses that makes the training equipment begin moving. I did not realise that it could do that. Everything begins to start hitting us knocking the boys down until it's only me and the red pyjama guy.

The boy takes the first kick which I easily dodge. But with only one foot on the ground, it causes him to be slightly unbalanced so I take my advantage and dive underneath his legs making him tumble over. The boy then stands up again, a little slower this time which makes it obvious that he has bruises. Luckily though, the other boys decide to get up and we begin fighting properly.

After we've each had multiple turns fighting with red pyjama guy, him and Jay begin tussling on the ground until Zane, Cole and I make a doggy pile on top of them.

"Stop!" Sensei Wu yells out to presumably all of us while dragging out the word, 'stop'. We all get off of the boy and bow down to Sensei apologising. "Yes Sensei."

"Wait a minute, they're your students too? Even the little one?" The boy with brown spiky hair and red pyjamas questions. "Hey!" I bark at him offended that he thinks I can't be a ninja because of my height and age. Sensei nods his head calmly in agreement. "This was my final test wasn't it?" But he gets cut of quickly to Jay interrupting as usual.

"Woah woah woah woah woah woah." He repeats in confusion. "You never said there was a 5th! There's always 4. There's usually a max number of 4 people in board games, in our video game!" Jay's about to start rambling on about more examples until Cole steps in. "What he's trying to say Sensei Wu is that the 4 of us have trained together, we're solid."

"Didn't look so solid to me." The apparently 5th ninja says cockily. So consequently, I walk behind him and kick his ass making him turn around and start rubbing on where I kicked him. He then gives me an unsatisfied glare which I only poke my tongue out to even though he can't see it considering I'm still wearing a mask. But I know that he knows what I'm doing as he turns his head back around to Sensei Wu while I walk back to my place in between Zane and Jay.

"Master, what is the meaning of this?" Zane asks as he steps forward slightly. It is then Sensei's turn to walk forward, down onto the steps. "Each of you have been chosen. Each in tune with elemental properties. But first.."

Sensei then starts spinning and it looks as if he was doing spinjitsu. His spinjitsu looks like a small tornado with Golden streaks everywhere with slightly brown ones as well. "Ninja go!" He yells out while spinning his way over towards us. We all get caught in it and come out with different coloured gi's on.

"Woah! How'd he do that?" The boy in once red pyjamas and now a red gi questions. Sensei stops his tornado of spinjitsu and looks at all 5 of us. "Look what colour I am." Jay says looking at his new gi while chuckling lightly. "Wait, I'm still black." Cole says gesturing to his new gi as well.

"Kai, master of fire. It burns bright in you. Jay is blue, master of lightning." Sensei begins explaining to us. "Heh, that's not all I'm the master of. I do a little inventing, I dabble in model building, touch of cooking, a little poetry." Cole sighs in annoyance at Jay's rambling which is honestly just annoying at this point. "More like mouth of lightning."

Sensei ignores what Jay and Cole have previously said and continues explaining our elements. "Black ninja Cole. Solid as rock. Master of earth." Cole then waves around his scythe and puts it dangerously close to Kai's throat. "Nice to meet you kid, I've got your back. And for the record, there ain't nothing in this world that I'm afraid of." Cole says taking off his mask. "Except for dragons." Zane inputs making me giggle lightly. "Dragons aren't from this world Zane, I said in this world."

"Well I think dragons are amazing creatures! From this world or not."

"Wait you're a girl!?" Kai exclaims dumbfounded that I'm not male.

"Yeah, I am. Nice of you to finally notice." I respond sassily.

Once again, Sensei ignores what we've previously said and continues explaining our elements. "White ninja is Zane, master of ice. And seer of 6th sense." Zane does a few cool moves until Sensei is standing in front of me.
"I sense this one takes this a little to seriously." I hear Kai whisper to Cole obviously not quite enough, although Zane doesn't appear to notice it. "And finally, silver ninja, master of wind. The breeze moves gently as your soul guides it." I take of my mask revealing a childish grin.

"You 5 are the chosen ones to protect the 5 weapons of spinjitsu from Lord Garmadon." Sensei continues explaining the prophecy to us as he walks up the stairs again onto the small platform in front of the door to the monastery. "But what about my sister?" Kai questions as he points his sword towards Sensei. "Ooh, we're saving a girl? Is she hot?" Jay asks Kai while nudging his elbow into his arm. What sucks though is that I can't figure out if he's joking or not.

"Jay." Cole drags out Jay's name. "I- I just want to know what we're getting ourselves into. Does she like blue?" Jay continues to question Kai. "Back off." Kai replies nastily which isn't surprising as he's obviously protective of her and I can almost see the fire in his eyes.

"When we find the weapons, we will find your sister. It is time! We must go to the first weapon."  Cole is the first to speak up about Sensei plans. "Woah, hold on a second. You said you were going to teach us spinjitsu." And as per usual, Sensei responds calmly. "Spinjitsu is inside each of every one of you. But it will only be unlocked when the key is ready to be found." Ah yes, cryptic old Sensei.

"Come! My feet are tired. We must take the horse carriage." Sensei asks of us again as he walks inside the monastery shutting the doors behind him. "Great now we have to find a key!" Jay exclaims.

"Yeah, I'm feeling like his taking us for a ride." Cole replies in an annoyed tone again.

"Well if it means finding my sister, then sign me up."

"Ooh! I hope she ends up staying with us so I don't have to deal with you douchebags alone anymore." I comment jumping up in excitement. No one responds as we all head back into the monastery and retire to bed for the night.
