(Y/n) ran over to where Nya crashes, she was trapped under the rubble. "Okay Nya, let's get you out of here (y/n) said as she lifted Nya out of the rubble.

(Y/n) helped Nya to her feet. Nya smiled at (y/n) gratefully and Nya's fist clenches tightly as she stares at (Y/N), betrayal etched in her features. Without a word, she lunges forward, her knuckles connecting with (Y/N)'s face with a resounding thud.

The force of the blow sends (Y/N) reeling backward, clutching her cheek in shock as she landed on the ground. Nya's chest heaves with anger, her eyes blazing with fury as she stood over her.

"Ow, Nya," (y/n) groaned in disbelief as she clutched her cheek. "That's for dying melodramatically a Second time," Nya grumbled at (y/n).

Nya helped (y/n) to her feet and kept a hold on her wrist. Oh shit. (y/n) knew she was in trouble as Nya threw (y/n) over her shoulder, slamming her into the ground, "that's for misplacing MY niece and nephew." Nya picked up (y/n)'s staff and jabbed her stomach with the end and causing me so much emotional distress for no damn reason, "and that's for everything else."

"What about a normal hello, how are you, I'm glad that you're back," (y/n) grumbled as she laid on the ground.

"Oh sorry about that, hi bitch, fuck you for dying A SECOND TIME, and how about another fuck you in case I didn't get my point across the first time," Nya grumbled as she helped (y/n) to her feet but instead of beating her up this time, she pulled (y/n) in for a hug, "that being said, thank fuck you're back."

(y/n) hugged Nya back. "I really also feel like slamming your head back into the ground for giving up your staff and power in the whole Wojira thing but I don't want to kill you a third time."

"Okay, thank you for not deciding to kill me, and I missed you too," (y/n) smiled as tears welled up in her eyes. "I also have some added bad news," (y/n) said nervously, "not death again or anything."

"(Y/n)?" Nya frowned at her.

"Well, the poison the was on Harumi's blade is unfortunately still in my system, it'll kick in sooner or later so oops," (y/n) shrugged.

Nya shot (y/n) a glare, a look that could have killed (y/n) a thousand times over. Nya grabbed (y/n)'s staff, "you dumbass!" (y/n) ducked Nya's swing and took off in a run. "When I'm fucking done with you, you're gonna wish your stayed dead!"

"I'm sorry!" (y/n) yelled as she ran from Nya.

"You better be because bitch I'm going to beat you and your dumbass until you learn some fucking self preservation!" Nya screamed as she took off after (y/n)

It was rare to see (y/n) sprinting as if her life depended on it. Her eyes were wide in terror as she sprinted through the streets of Ninjago.

Jay had spotted her and knew that whatever was chasing her, wasn't friendly. Jay drove over and parked beside her, "(y/n) I'm glad you're back, but are you okay, what are you running from?" Jay asked.

A shiver went down (y/n)'s spine as she ducked, a rock hit Jay in the face. (y/n) dove behind some nearby rubble, "get your girl Jay, before she sends me back into the realm of the dead," (y/n) shuddered as she took cover.

Jay then looked over to Nya who bounced a rock in her hands. Her eyes were ablaze with fury for her best friend. "Nya, so what have you been up to?" Jay asked as Nya stormed towards them.

"Oh, you know. Trying to make the Master of wind get through her thick skull that she needs to stop putting everyone through an emotional roller coaster," Nya seethed.

Nya blasted the rubble that (y/n) took cover behind but scowled to find her gone, "dammit, lost her," she hissed.

Soldiers of the crystal king stomped towards them, "uh, Nya, I think we need to deal with these guys and then you can go back to putting (y/n) 6 feet in the ground."

"She's going to want me to put her 12 feet in the ground," Nya grumbled as she launched her power at the incoming crystal army.

As (y/n) dashes through the labyrinthine streets of Ninjago, her breath coming in ragged gasps, she knows she's being pursued. Desperation fuels her every step as she seeks refuge behind a cluster of dilapidated buildings. Heart pounding, she presses herself against the cool stone, trying to steady her racing pulse.

Suddenly, a figure steps out from the shadows, their silhouette illuminated by the dim glow of the street lamps. It's Aspheera, her gaze sharp and calculating as she sizes up (Y/N). "(y/n)? Did you have to wreck half the city?!" Aspheera's voice carries a note of disbelief, her tone softening slightly as she approaches. "Is it really you?"

"Yeah, it's me," (Y/N) finally replies, emerging from her hiding spot. "And yeah, you know me I had to make an entrance and what about you, what are you doing here?"

Aspheera cuts her off with a wave of her hand, a wry smile playing at the corners of her lips. "Long story," she says cryptically. "But it's good to see you, kid. I never thought I'd run into you again, especially not like this."

"Well you never know these days?" (Y/n) shrugged. "How are Lillium and Arwen?" (Y/n) asked.

Aspheera nodded. "I intercepted them downstream just like you asked, I got them somewhere safe in the township of Windsor until you or Lloyd can collect them."

(Y/n) nodded, "good, I didn't want to tell Lloyd, in case it didn't go to plan, I owe you Aspheera."

"Please any time," Aspheera grinned.

Aspheera's eyes glint mischievously as she produces a worn pack of cards "How about we take a breather from all this chaos and play a game?" she suggests, a smirk tugging at her lips.

(Y/N) hesitates, torn between the urgency of their situation and the chance to momentarily escape the tension. But the glimmer of competition in Aspheera's gaze is oddly enticing, and she finds herself nodding in agreement.

"Yeah, why not," (Y/N) replies, a faint smile quirking her lips. "A game sounds good right about now because I have no idea what's going on, who's where so may as well kill time before the big catch up and final charge."

Aspheera's grin widens as she shuffles the cards expertly, her movements fluid and practiced. "Great," she says, dealing out a hand to (Y/N). "Let's see if you can keep up with me."

For the next few minutes, the two of them lose themselves in the simple joy of the game, the sounds of the city fading into the background as they focus on the cards before them. With each play and counterplay, the tension of their earlier encounter melts away, replaced by a sense of camaraderie and shared purpose.

"Thanks for the game," (Y/N) says, a genuine smile gracing her features.

Aspheera returns the smile, her eyes sparkling with warmth. "Anytime, kid," she replies, gathering up the cards. "But for now, you better get back to the fight. You've got a city to save, after all and please you almost dropped a building the first time."

"Yeah," (y/n) winced.

"Do you know how well Ninjago was evacuated?" (Y/n) asked Aspheera.

"No idea but after that stunt there's definitely no more people in those buildings," Aspheera said.

"Ooops," (y/n) said nervously.

"It's definitely more than an oops!"
