Set in stone (Ninjago x Male reader)

The Forgotten Element

I might take a break after this one, just a heads up. I haven't been too motivated and I'm still constantly writing the Morro x reader that I'm planning on releasing either in may or early june, and I want to have a lot of chapters ready by then. I will of course put up a message about the it later on, but right now it seems like I won't be uploading next week, sorry! 

And more about this chapter, one scene is not in the same order as in the original episode, because I really didn't want to cut the flow of the scene. Now, let's go.

 "Bring in the prisoners!" The group could hear Clouse's call even through the door, right before a few Anacondrai cultists grabbed hold of the chains the group were in, and led them into the hall.

"So the ninja were right. This was never about any of us winning the tournament. This was always about something sinister!" Griffin said out loud the obvious as Shade groaned in annoyance.

"What gave that away? Was it his cult following, or the giant snake head?"

"We've been fighting each other for so long, it took us all losing to finally pull us together," Neuro spoke too, his voice calm, but not in a good way.

"Too bad it's too late." It just seemed like he had already lost all hope. Mr. Pale was just silent, maybe if he didn't make his presence know, he would be forgotten, and maybe he could forget the mess he had gotten himself into by coming on this island in the first place.

Jay meanwhile was humming. He had smile on his face as he aimlessly looked around, not really registering the things around him until Kai turned to him with an annoyed look.

"Why are you humming? You do know they're about to take our powers?" Kai scoffed at Jay, but that didn't seem to change the blue ninja's attitude a bit.

"Since these have blocked our powers, I choose to use the power of positive thinking. Lloyd will come save us. You just wait." At least Jay was hopeful.

The group was lead to the middle of everything. The middle of the chanting Anacondrai cultists, in the middle of the large hall, and right in front of Clouse and Skylor. Everyone was cursing the two and their leader in their heads, everyone except for Kai.

Kai glared at Skylor. It was weaker than the glares he'd cast onto the villains of the past, but it was still a glare. Skylor couldn't handle it, and she turned her head away the second she caught Kai's gaze.

"Go ahead and look away, but you know as well as I do after takes our powers, he's still gonna need yours." Kai spoke, Clouse saw them, but didn't really care whether the two exchanged a few words or not.

"You don't understand. My father gets everything he wants. I had no choice!" Skylor wanted to stop caring what Kai thought of her, but it was easier said than done.

"Just tell me one thing. Was it his idea to make me fall for you, or yours? Because it worked." Kai dropped his glare, and although so far all he had been casting Skylor was awkward grins and cocky smiles, this expression was probably the one that Skylor felt the most for.

At first Skylor wasn't sure how to react, but before long she smiled, turning away once again as 

"Lock 'em down. All rise for Master Chen!" A call from one of the Anacondrai made the chanting Anacondrai cultists stop, and stand up to wait for Chen to arrive. Meanwhile, the group of Elemental Masters were forced on one knee.

All of the Anacondrai cultists started cheering when they spotted Chen floating toward them on his throne, the Staff of Elements in his hand.

"Look at me! I'm floating!" Right as Chen shouted that, he almost fell down along with his throne, but unfortunately managed to get himself back up and floating.
