LEGO Ninjago (Reader Insert)

First Date

(Okay, this is an entirely original chapter. Something very special~)

It's been a month since we had defeated the Preeminent and Morro has been imprisoned. Things have calmed down and it is very much need after that whole spectral fiasco. The team has been doing well as we have taken time for ourselves. Nya has been getting better at controlling her elemental powers, but she is still struggling with being an official member of the team. It makes sense since she was usually helping us from the sidelines or as Samurai X. But she's getting there. Slowly.

Zane, Kai and Jay have been doing fine too. Cole though has been getting used to his ghost self, but I can tell he wishes to be human again. I feel bad but so far with what I have researched about, there is no evidence or anything to help with that. But then there's Lloyd, he has started his training to become a master. I think he's starting too soon. He is still the youngest out of us, not to mention our leader and the fact that with the Preeminet having drowned, his father is... Anyway, he's pushing himself a little too much and I'm afraid he may end up hurting himself. (Man is doing too much. 😓)

"Sounds rough." I blink and look at Morro. Oh, right. I'm visiting Morro at Kryptarium Prison. He has been placed in a very special cell with around the clock surveillance and wearing special chains made from both Vengestone and Deepstone so he won't phase out of them or use his elemental powers. I look to see him playing with a deck of cards. I sigh, "Yeah, it's been a big change for everyone." I state. I use my powers to summon some purple wind to flip a card. (Wind power. Cool, huh? 😏) He flips one and places it on a stack. "Sounds to me that they keep moving forward, but struggle to accept what is the now." He says.

I groan and lean back, "Ya think? It's like sometimes I feel like I have to look after everyone. And don't get me started on the fact that Jay's feelings for Nya are bubbling to the surface. Again. Ever since the whole matchmaker thing, the two have been in a weird place." I vent. It feels like I'm always getting unnecessarily involved in love drama. But then my thoughts shift to Cole... that vision I had in the ice maze. Is it really... Real? (Hmmmmm~? 😚)

"Maybe," I pay attention to Morro as he speaks, "You need to do something for yourself. I spent my whole living life and most of my cursed life chasing after something to prove someone else wrong. And look where it got me." He says, holding up an arm as the chain attached to it rattles. I exhale softly, using my powers to flip another card. "Well, having grown up in an orphanage where everyone thought you were weird and leaving it to travel all around Ninjago, I often times take the saying, 'Never put off tomorrow what can be done today.' Too seriously." I state. (*Looks away and whistles innocently while flashing back to Season One.*)

It became silent for a moment until the doors open and I stand up, "Alright. Visitation hours are over." I hear Barnes say. I look at Morro and he collects the cards, "So, see ya next time." He says. I nod my head then walk off with Barnes escorting me. "I know you trust him, but we can't risk any chances with that guy." He says. "Understandable." I reply. (Very. 😌) Soon made it outside and I go get on my motorcycle, put on my helmet then rev up the engine and ride off. I need a break.

Third Person P.O.V.

The team were on Destiny's Bounty as it flies through the sky. Cole is currently with Wu as the two meditate. "Your new form can have advantages that can benefit in battle. However, you must accept it to truly master it." Wu says softly. Cole focuses but then his thoughts shift to (Y/N). He sighs and opens his eyes as he rests his hands on his lap. Wu opens his eyes to look at him, "Cole?" He says. "Look, Sensei, I appreciate these sessions, but I don't think I can focus right now." Cole states. Wu examines him then close his eyes and strokes his beard, "I see. Then we are done for today." He states, looking at Cole with sympathy. (He knows.)
