It's just medicine

*Cole is injured after a battle downtown Ninjago City. Of course his friends and teammates are worried about him, and urge him to go see a doctor.
However, Cole refuses. He even refuses to take common medicine to ease the pain.

Do you wanna know why? Well, read the story, then ;)
Have fun!

(inspired by a song called "medicine" by 'daughter' and a hc of mine)

TW: mention of blood, hospitals, death, injuries, panic attacks and vomit

Pick it up, pick it all up

Cole groaned as he shot up in pain, starting under his left shoulder blade and ending in his left knee joint.

Actually, when he thought about it, the whole left side hurt, since that was where he fell on.

A couple of feet down, from a fricking Rooftop.

And start again

He didn't know how long he was being out, but his surroundings were suspiciously quiet.

He tried getting up, but his knee blocked completely, and when he looked down (which he REALLY avoided to), he found out, that on the parts where his Gi was ripped, his hip, his thigh, and his knee were all bruised up and bleeding, and his left ankle (hell no) was slightly swollen.

Even though Cole didn't feel the pain there - as a former dancer he knew something was off.

A ligament was overstretched, or even torn, maybe something was even broken (Cole REALLY didn't even wanna know)

The worst part was his head.

It was THROBBING. His vision was still a little blurry, and even though he must have been unconscious for at least a little while, he felt so so tired.

He almost debated just going back to sleep, when he heard it.

Voices.

You've got a second chance

And they were calling his name.

His friends.

You could go home

"I'm he-", Cole couldn't even finish trying to get their attention by yelling back.

His own voice sent an immense wave of pain through his skull, even though it was already hoarse and feeling dull.

Luckily, his teammates had spotted him already, and so he allowed himself to fall back again.

Bad idea, 'cause now his back also started hurting in the position he was in, but the ground was so comfortable, so peaceful and...

Escape it all, it's just irrelevant

"Cole! Fuck, are you okay?", that was Jay, his voice higher than usual, and the black ninja fought the urge to cover his ears.

"I..'m fi..ne", his voice slurred a little bit, WHY did it slur?!

He tried sitting up again, but this time it were hands, that were holding him back.

He looked down, saw the blood on his body again, almost keeled over by the sight, and focused on the hands again.

Icy blue and fire red gloves.

Zane and Kai.

Then their faces appeared in his vision.

Worried.

How he hated the look of worry in anyones face, when they were facing HIM.

"That was a hard blow you took there, buddy", Kai mumbled.
