Cole Brookstone x FReader: Double Trouble

A/N: A bit of a long one today, I've been rewatching Ninjago and a few episodes have stuck out to me that I'd like to cover so expect more like this soon. I'll also be releasing the next part for my Shadow fic, Warming Up To You, in the next coming days so stay tuned. Enjoy!

"Focus, Lloyd. Control the power inside you. When you feel a surge welling up, harness it." Jay hummed, watching with anticipation as Lloyd held a lightbulb in his hands.

"I understand, I am in control." he groaned out, the lightbulb slowly glowing green. Jay smiled, rubbing his hands together, "Come on, Lloyd. You can do it." he cheered. The bulb continued to get brighter and brighter, the rest of you were standing at the edge of the dojo watching with uncertainty.

As the bulb continued to glow, a cracking sound filled the room. You turned to Cole, whispering a small "Do you hear that?" As the sentence left your mouth, the bulb exploded, shards shattering in a circle around Lloyd.

"Aah! Stupid light bulb! You're putting too much pressure on me, let me have one more try." he begged. Kai walked up to him, placing a reassuring hand on his back, "Ugh, sorry, Lloyd. That was the last light bulb."

Lloyd frowned, you knew he'd been practising extra hard and yet this is all he had to show for it, a bunch of broken bulbs. Cole grabbed a broom from the supply closet and offered it to Lloyd, "Clean up, Lloyd. We'll continue training tomorrow."

The rest of you gathered into a small group, Jay frowned, rubbing his hands against his face in defeat "What am I doing wrong, Sensei Wu? I can't seem to teach him to control his power."

"Patience, Jay. Sometimes, the greatest opponent we face is ourselves, and that's especially true of Lloyd. Remember where he came from, he's the son of Lord Garmadon. It's going to take time for him to embrace the light." Wu stated, wise as always. You all collectively nodded, but you just wish this whole green ninja, light vs dark thing would happen already.

It always felt like you were one step closer to winning but then the rug would be pulled from under you and you'd have to start all over again. Checking the time, you mumbled to Cole that you were leaving; duty calls so to say.

You were a teacher at Lloyd's old school, though now it was solely for good. You had always wanted to be a teacher, so you could help others and see where their paths would go. It brought you no end of joy, and Kai did say you always liked a challenge. So when the opportunity arose for you to teach at this wayward boarding school you ate up the chance.

Leaving your small village, you couldn't wait to start the next chapter in your life. Your friends were very excited for you, though Nya and Cole seemed a little reluctant.

"What if something bad happens to you?"

"What if the school is still secretly evil?"

"How will we hang out all the time?"

"Who's going to make me cake?"

But it all ended up working out, you got a few days off every so often and would spend the majority of that time with the ninja. Today was your last day off after a three-day weekend. So, with your bags packed, you set off and found your way back to the boarding school in no time.

"Hey there, Miss (L/N)." Brad smiled, watering the flowers outside the main entrance. You thanked the taxi driver as you climbed out of the vehicle, pulling your bags with you, "Brad?" you questioned.

You looked around but saw no one else with him, "What are you doing out here? Why aren't you in class?"

"Oh, erm, well-" he stuttered out, you were now standing in front of him, teacher mode activated. You nodded your head to the entrance, "C'mon, let's get you back to class; we'll talk about this later." you followed on behind him, the large doors slamming shut behind you.
