Someone Like You (Lloyd x Reader)

Chapter 3 - The Golden Weapons

Damn you Sensei. Last night when you said something about taking a horse carriage or whatever, I thought you meant a real one! Not making us run up a hill, tied to a wagon chair, pulling you behind us! And the amount of times that I've fallen over because of how small I am and I can't keep up with everyone else as well is just embarrassing. I thought you would've been nice enough to at least let me have a seat as well.

"Sign me up." Jay mimics Kai from last nights conversation after discovering our elements. "Way to go spark plug."

"I sense this is some sort of team building." Zane states as I almost trip over again.

"Wow, Sensei really was being serious about that whole 6th sense thing." I also state while speeding back up again. "Just keep pulling, we have a long way to go." Cole says as he and I are the ones leading Sensei's little chariot.

"So, where did Sensei find you 4?" Kai questions changing the subject. And in all honesty, I'd prefer the last conversation.

"Let's just say if it wasn't for Sensei Wu, I don't think we'd ever be seen together." Cole states turning around to look at Kai slightly slowing down which I almost flip over the wooden pole that I'm holding onto. "I was testing my limits."

"I was testing my invention."

"And I was testing myself."

"What about you pip squeak?" Kai says as all eyes where on me, other than Sensei's. "I'd prefer not to talk about. Let's just say, I didn't have the best life before now." Everyone stays quiet after this I can feel sympathy coming from each one of them. But I don't want it. There's people who deal with much more than I did. Plus, look at me now! I have a much better life all thanks to Sensei.

"Stop!" Sensei says as we all halt and this time I do flip over the wooden stick I was holding onto. I get a small laugh out of the other 4 ninja which I just groan in annoyance at. But I laugh lightly too. We all get out from in front of the chariot thing, other than Sensei because he was in it, and make our way over to a fairly large rock.

"The caves of despair. Samukai must be close to unearthing the scythe of quakes. Remember, do not use the weapon, for its power-" Jay cuts Sensei's explanation off as he knows what Sensei is about to say. "Yeah yeah yeah, it's too much for us mortals. All right guys, let's chop-socky this lemonade stand! Cole you got the plan?"

"Sure do. First we lower ourselves to the ledge and then- Where's Kai?" We all look around for where Kai may be until we find him already in the massive pit sneaking his way into the dug out cave. "Found him." I comment pointing to him so that the others know.

"Uh, let's go." Cole groans in annoyance as Kai is already down there. We all jump from behind the rock but my gi gets caught on something so my ass slumps back down on top of the rock. I turn around to see Sensei holding me back with his stick.

"You must not go Y/n. You aren't ready to be fighting the skeleton yet." Sensei orders but I immediately retort back. "But I am to pull you up the hill? Because that's fair." Sensei doesn't give in and motions for the other ninja to go. "Patience Y/n, patience." Is all he says as he lets me go. I don't disobey Sensei's orders and begin the long wait of the return of the others.

"That was so awesome!" Cole exclaims to both Sensei and I and the other ninja. Only now I've noticed that they've learnt how to do spinjitsu. But when I look over towards Sensei, he seems less than impressed. He seems much more furious.

"Yes we are unbelievable!" Kai exclaims as he and Cole jump in unison then high-five each other. "We are the best!" Zane compliments all 4 of them. Wow, never heard Zane compliment himself before, only everyone else. "Did you see that? I was like pow and you were like bam!"
