Pixal and the Dragon Of Night

A Year of Grief and Anger

Author's Note: Hey Guys, No Meme of the day, Instead there is a song that I thought reminds me of Pixal before Crystalised and after Seabound how she must have felt. I always thought Pixal never shut down her emotions because that is what she learned about. So The song is "Free Me" By Sia. Such a sad song really!

Pixal POV

After Nya passed everything changed, in a bad way.

I remember the day Nya passed I went to Hangar Bay and patted Ester's head while he relaxed.

He did notice the tears falling on him from my eyes,

I sometimes went to my room and curled up under blankets to attempt to make myself warm as I cry.

After a few weeks, Jay left and was never seen again,

Kai was preparing to go but I wasn't planning to leave.

I don't want Wu, Zane, Cole or Ester to be alone,

I sometimes came during the night to Zane's room to get comfort or give comfort to Zane who would be crying in his sleep sometimes.

He felt more hurt than I was,

He would always come to me for hugs and comfort.

He would always cry on my shoulder and hold me close,

I sometimes hummed songs to him and gave him comfort.

I just wanted him to be okay,

Sometimes he would make me feel so broken that when I comfort him I would even start crying when he did.

Ever since I learned about emotions and life in Ninjago from Zane, I have become an emotional person.

This means I could feel a lot of emotions and if someone was happy then I would be, if someone would be upset then I would be upset.

Most of the time if that someone was Zane then I would be feeling the same as him,

Nearly every day I would go to his room.

Sometimes I went to check on Ester, but he just seemed so less motivated than me,

I understood that none of us wanted to play with him and he understood it.

One day I went to the kitchen to get something and I saw Zane finishing making lunch,

That's odd he would typically be in his room.

"Hey, Zane, I thought you would be in your room?" I say,

"I was thinking maybe I could make lunch for you," He says in an emotionless tone.

It caught me off, guard,

"Zane, is everything okay? Aren't you not grieving Nya like we all are?" I question him.

"Yes I am through words since I switched off my emotion meter," He says suddenly,

What did he just say?

"You switched off your emotion meter?" I question his feeling upset,

"Affirmative," He says.

"Zane, Why would you do such a thing? It was you who taught me how to feel, it was you who taught me, love. I learned about Ninjago because of you and now you are pushing it all away?" I question him.

"Do not be mad, it is improving my motivations around the area" Zane says,

Anger built up in my system.

"No, that is not what I want, you are just making things worse. Please turn your emotions back on" I say.

He shook his head,
