Lloyd's Pov:

I've been worrying about Kai. Cole convinced me to listen to my father, and what he said was worrying.

"Last night, at about 2:30, I found Kai awake drinking coffee" Garmadon said.

I looked down, 'he HAS been seaming... off? tiered? not like himself?' I thought to myself, 'I thought it was just him having a bad day, I shouldn't've pushed it off.'

Shaking my head I responded, "Thanks for telling me."

Garmadon narrowed his eyes at me, "I shouldn't have had to tell you."

"I know" I sighed, rolling my eyes.

He was right, but I needed to focus on how to help my brother.

Looking at Cole I concluded, "Well, we don't want to overwork Kai if he is going without sleep."

"I'll tell the others to go easy on him at practice, if um..." Cole started nervously.

I smiled, Cole, unlike Kai, was open about his concerns and care about the team. If it wasn't for Kai's overprotectiveness, I would have NEVER known he cared about anyone but himself.

Kai's Pov:

I woke up and looked at my clock.

2:58 pm it read.

I layed back and sighed. that was unfortunately the longest i've slept in the past week since the voice intruded into my dreams.

"Well, nothing left but to get up" I said to no one.

'You need rest' the voice argued.

'Like you LET me sleep' I thought back gruffly.

No response. 'Classic' I growled in my mind.

Getting up, I made sure not to wake anyone, not wanting an incident like the one with Garmadon again.

Slowly, I walked into the kitchen, and myself a cup of coffee.

'You shouldn't have coffee this late' the voice cautioned.

'And you should let me sleep' I shot back.

'You could always try' it divulged.

'Oh, be quiet' I retorted back.

An image popped in my head for a few minutes. Me killing myself.

'Great' I observed 'now it's talking AND pictures. Just. Great.'

Then out of nowhere. Chen's noodle house.

Looking up I sighed, "fine, you win. I'll go to Skylor."
