Ninjago Perfect Match Bonus Scenes

For the Last Time... {I Don't Need A Girl Part II}

(Requested by basically everybody.)

"Hey, Kai, move over," Lloyd said.

"Why?" Kai demanded, glancing over his shoulder.

Lloyd folded his arms. "I want to use the computer."

Kai turned back around to face the screen. "You can wait."

"But you've had it all morning, Kai!" Lloyd protested. "It's my turn!"

Kai didn't look up. "Sorry, kiddo. The early bird gets the worm."

Lloyd glared at the back of Kai's head. "I'm gonna tell Sensei that you bought Fist-to-Face Three after he specifically told you not to."

Kai scrambled out of his chair. "That's blackmail!"

Lloyd sat down. "Yeah, but it worked."

"Yeah, whatever." Kai scowled and stomped out of the room. Lloyd chuckled to himself. He may be older and a good guy now, but the tricks he'd learned as a kid at Darkly's Boarding School for Bad Boys still came in handy every now and then. 

Moving quickly, Lloyd logged into Perfect Match and sent a message to y/u. Despite his protests to the other guys, he and y/u had become very good friends online. Lloyd almost couldn't believe that he was actually making friends with a girl. Nya was a girl too, of course, but she was more like a big sister to Lloyd. She didn't count.

"Hey, Lloyd, what's up?" Jay asked from the doorway.

Lloyd glared at Jay. "None of your business."

Jay looked over Lloyd's shoulder and read the words on the computer screen. "Oooh! Lloyd's got a girlfriend!"

Lloyd jabbed Jay with his elbow. "I do not have a girlfriend. She's just a person. Who I happen to know. Online."

"Hey, Lloyd," Cole called from the door. "Whatcha doing?"

"He's talking to his girlfriend," Jay laughed. He took a step away from Lloyd to prevent retaliation. 

Zane appeared behind Cole. "I thought he did not have a girlfriend."

Lloyd groaned. "For the last time, I don't have a girlfriend, I don't want a girlfriend, and just because y/u is my friend, that doesn't mean she's my girlfriend!"

"Somebody's getting defensive!" Cole laughed.

"I bet you'll change your mind if you meet her," Jay agreed.

Zane shook his head. "My analysis suggests that he would not meet y/u even if he could."

"I could meet her if I wanted!" Lloyd shot back. "She just lives in Ninjago Cit—" he cut himself off a heartbeat too late as he realized his mistake. 

Cole, Jay, and Zane burst out laughing. "Ninjago City?" Jay repeated. "See, you should go meet her! I bet she's hot!"

"Jay, scram," Lloyd scowled. "And that goes for you two as well."

"So you're scared to meet her?" Cole guessed.

"No! I just don't want to!" Lloyd snapped.

"His actions do indicate nervousness," Zane said thoughtfully.

Lloyd glared at them. "All right, that's it. All of you out of this room, right now!"

Cole and Jay burst out laughing again. Lloyd glared at them and conjured up a ball of green energy. "Out."

Zane shrugged and left the room. Jay and Cole followed, still snickering.

Lloyd watched them go, then turned and focused on the computer screen, scowling in concentration. So they thought he was too scared to meet y/u? He'd show them! Forehead furrowed in concentration, Lloyd began to type.

Lloyd pushed through the door and walked into the air-conditioned comfort of Doomsday Comics. Hopefully, y/u would be there—he'd dropped plenty of hints yesterday. But first things first. Lloyd slipped past a group of Daffy Dale enthusiasts and beelined for the rack at the back of the store. Starfarer comics always sold out quickly, especially when the previous issue ended in a serious cliffhanger.

Lloyd let out a relieved sigh when he reached the shelf. Just one copy left. He reached out for it, but before he could lift it from the shelf, another hand came out of nowhere and grabbed onto his comic.

"Hey!"  A girl about Lloyd's age with h/c hair and e/c eyes glared at him. "I was here first!"

Lloyd held tight to the comic. "No way! I was here first, fair and square!"

"Y/n! Lloyd!" Mother Doomsday appeared from behind a nearby shelf. "Do I have to give that comic to someone else?"

"But if I don't get a copy, my pen pal will ruin it!" Lloyd and the girl both protested. Wait, did she just say pen pal?

Y/n stopped and looked at Lloyd, her head cocked slightly to one side. "Wait a minute..."

Mother Doomsday stared back and forth between the two of them. "Why do I get the feeling I'm looking at a classic comic-book plot twist in real life?"

"One way to find out." Y/n stuck her tongue out at Lloyd, pulled her phone out of her pocket, and typed something in. A few seconds later, Lloyd's phone vibrated.

Lloyd pulled his phone out, read the message, and showed it to y/n. So this girl was his pen pal? She'd been willing to fight him for that comic. That was impressive. Plus, he had to admit, she was kind of cute...

Knock it off, Lloyd told himself. You're not getting a girlfriend. But some part of him wasn't convinced.

(A couple of things: first, I'm very, very sorry for not updating last week. I was in the middle of finals and studying, and lame excuses blah blah blah...

Second, this week is the last call for votes on what you would want y/n's elemental power to be. Right now, the standings are:

Air/Wind: 5

Nature/Wood: 3

So be sure to vote for which one you want!

And, last of all, do you guys want me to write a 7 Minutes In Heaven for each of the ninja? It would go up in this book and be a separate storyline from my Boyfriend Scenarios, just so you know.
