The Crystal Eyes | Ninjago X male reader | On Hold

Chapter 1 : Way Of The Ninja

Outside of the monastery, a sound of metal scraping the surface could be heard. There on the ground next to the golden statue of a dragon in the middle of the outside area was a man holding an axe and grinding it against a wet stone to sharpen the head.

While doing so he heard two muffled voices behind the closed doors. One that he recognized belonged to the elder man, named Wu. While the other one was new to him. Yet he knew who the owner of the voice was. It belonged to the new fire master.

Deciding to not waste any time the (h/c) man gathered all of his items and headed inside. Halfway through the sliding door closing, behind him, the monastery doors opened, and inside came the elder man with a brunette boy.

A shouting sound woke the man out of his slubber. Still half asleep, he sat up and opened his eyes. 'What the hell was that?' thought the man to himself.

Getting up and putting on his white haori along with a pair of geta. The man was about to go out of his sleeping quarters but quickly turned back to grab his katana. Equipped with the katana the male started walking towards the location of the sound, which came from the outside area.

While walking closer, the sound became a set of muffled voices, and with every step, the voices became louder and clearer. Reaching the end of the hall the man stopped, as now he could make out what the voices were saying. The only thing that separated the male and the voices was the thin sliding doors.

"I sense that this one takes things a little too seriously." said a voice.

"You too have the gift?" questioned the another.

"He Hehe, he is just making a joke, Zane. Remember what we talked about? Your sense of humor, huh?" tried to explain the third voice.

"Oh...Yes, it was a joke. Ha. Ha." answered the voice.

Unsure of what was happening on the other side, the (h/c) male pushed the door as quietly as he could to not draw attention to him in case the monastery was under attack and he needed to take out the enemy.

There on the other side stood four boys and in front of them stood Wu. From what the male saw all of the boys were dressed in ninja wear. Still not understanding what was happening the man called to the elder.

"OI! What was all the shouting for?!" yelled the (h/c) man at the group, with a hit of irritation in his voice. That made the crew go silent and turn their attention towards him. Walking up to the elder, Wu just smiled before he spoke. "Y/N, I see that you are awake." Said Wu.

"OH Yeah, I'm wondering WHO WOULDN'T BE after hearing loud sounds of fighting and shouting from the outside." Answered the irritated male. The four boys just stayed silent while looking at the (h/c) man that came out holding a katana.

"Ninja, please meet Y/N. Would you like to introduce yourself?" asked Wu. Y/N gave a small nod before speaking up. "Good afternoon everyone, my name is Y/N, I'm the medic as well as the caretaker of this monastery alongside Wu." Y/N introduced himself, having a bored and tired expression.

After a few seconds of silence, the ninja, one after the other introduced themselves as well. When the boys introduced themselves, Y/N was observing them. The way they stood, how they talked, the expression they were making, and what tone they used. A habit that stayed with him from all of the years spent on battlegrounds.

"Greetings Y/N, my name is Zane." Said the white ninja. At the sound of his voice, Y/N looked at him. Just like he did with the others, but when he reached his eyes there was a spark that he felt in his soul. When he looked at the blue crystal-like eyes, he felt like he was falling under a spell. But before he could fall deeper he was taken out by Wu speaking.
