CORRUPTION | Lloyd Garmadon x fem!reader

Dead Man's Squall

    Perennial arrived at the scene with popcorn from her bike's compartment just as Mr. E and the Ice ninja started brawling. It was obviously a losing fight for the white-clad hero, as he was thrown precariously near the edge of the cliff. She continued chomping the buttery pieces as the ninja kept questioning Mr. E's identity while exchanging blows.

    "Fight, fight, fight!" Perennial cheered, throwing popcorn at the two. "Go Mr. E!" She was met with the red glow of his eyes. If he had visible eyebrows, Perennial knew that both of them would be furrowed in exasperation. She grinned at him in return. "Boo ninja!"

    Mr. E shook his head and continued fighting the enemy with unpredictable punches and carefully aimed kicks, each which Perennial winced at. Man, the ninja should give up already, or his butt gonna get beat tonight. Speaking of which, the Titanium ninja was thrown back by the blast of a hard punch, courtesy of the nindroid in black. Perennial smiled.

    'As always, evil wins. Good should just give up already, or they will be corrupted." Her thoughts were interrupted by grunts from the nindroid in white, and Mr. E frozen by blasts of ice.

    "Hey!" Perennial blew an imaginary whistle. "That wasn't fair on him! See if you can match this." She powered up her energy balls, and only one managed to fly straight, exploding at his chest and causing him to fall down, while the other one spun off course. The villainess cursed and threw burst after burst, all which the Ice ninja was easily able to dodge.

    "You appear to be frustrated, which makes your Energy only half as powerful," he mused. "You require more practice, perhaps Lloyd, the other Energy elemental cou-"

    "Shut it, nindroid," she hissed, one tiny blast of green feebly hitting the sand next to the nindroid in front of her. "I need no help. Well, actually, I could do with some now." She her last blast of Energy off to her side, this time hitting her mark and freeing Mr. E from his icy imprisonment.

    The two allies fought side by side, each taking turns hitting their foe, just as they had trained. The two were perfectly synchronized, each reading the other's bodies and fighting as one. Perennial saw the ninja weakly spark, and so she started to pull back her hits. She only wanted to scare him off so she could continue her mission.

    "You don't... have to do this," he panted, looking up at them with sorrow in his flickering blue eyes. Mr. E ignored his plea, launching the ninja over the cliff and into the abyss below. Perennial turned to glare at her partner, who did nothing, instead jumping in after the Ice ninja.

    "Wow, ok," Perennial scoffed, swiftly following her partner. She landed in time to see the ninja's unique eyes power off, and shock ran through her. Even though she taught herself not to feel much emotion while rising from the streets of Ninjago city as a street queen, her true intentions were never murder. 

    "Mr. E," she growled, an undertone of rage flitting through her words as she knelt down beside the metal body and fingered the wiring of his face. "You know the Sons of Garmadon have a no-kill policy, unless directed by the Quiet One. You'll be lucky I won't be telling them about this. Now get. Out. Of. My. Sight." 

    If it weren't clear before, Perennial was a very bipolar person, and Mr. E could now see the other side to her usually sarcastic and comedic character. She was terrifying. He could only shrug, handing her a small device before obeying her wishes. 

    Perennial sighed, opening the nindroid's chest compartment, placing the device in, and started to do some minor repairs in his body, damaged from the earlier battle.

💚💛

    Night had quickly fallen, and even though Perennial racked her brain for her very little knowledge about technology and electronics, she was unable to bring the Ice ninja back to life. A rumble echoed throw the sand, and a bright spotlight was fixed upon her and the ninja's bodies. She raised her head, shielding her eyes, and the ninja suddenly surrounded her, having slid down by ropes.
