The Betrayal

15

I sighed entering my room the past few weeks since Kung food have been difficult both as Lloyd and as Drakon. As Lloyd I've had to deal with Mari's soap opera romance, Chloe, and the normal high school drama. As Drakon the akuma's have been a bit harsh the most memorable was Gamer. I sighed and packed a bag for today's field trip to the Paris zoo. Not that I have anything against animals it's just that after the serpentine thing I haven't been fond of snakes.

I got to the wait area while Miss Bustier was assigning teams. "Now remember these people will also be your partners for when we go to Ninjago." Miss Bustier said

I could practically feel the stares at my back because I'm a Ninjago native. She went down the list. "And lastly since our class has 29 students the last group will be Adrien, Lloyd and Nino" Miss Bustier said

We all boarded the bus and were off to the zoo. "I heard that the zoo has a new panther exhibit" Nino said

"Neat" I said

"So Lloyd is there anything that creeps you out" Adrien asked

If your wondering why he's asked that let me take you back to last week. You see I found out by complete mistake that Adrien is creepped out by spiders. I just happened to be passing by when Adrien had the run in with the spider. As I said complete mistake. Ever since Adrien has been trying to find out what creeps me out.  "My secret" I told him

He didn't need to know that it was overgrown magical snakes. I mean I love dragons and normal snakes I'll stand for a certain amount of time, but the Serpentine forget it they are disgusting especially the venomari. Adrien pouted. "Dude how can you do that to Adrien of all people?" Nino asked

"Do what?" I returned confused

"Make the dude more human than his pop's own image" Nino said

I shrugged my shoulders. We soon arrived at the zoo. "Alright everyone is to meet back here at noon for lunch" Miss Bustier said

Everyone took off. "So where do you guys want to start?" Adrien asked

"Well this is Lloyd's first time here so we should start at the beginning" Mari said

"Thanks" I smiled

Up front and center in the zoo was a bunch of tigers. "Cool" I said

"Hey Lloyd quick question have you ever been to a zoo before?" Alya asked

I froze and thought back to when I was a kid to now. "No. This would actually be my first time coming to a zoo and being a normal teenager" I said leaning on the railing watching the tiger pace back and forth

"What do you mean?" Nino said

"As a kid my parents weren't around. Then When I was seven I started training to be the green ninja and doing things like this was considered childish and well an unimportant piece that would never amount to anything for my training. Then once the whole beating my father and the Overlord thing happened I got swept up forcibly into awards cemamonies, dinners, interviews, modeling gigs, and much more. Then the overlord/Golden Master thing happened. then the team broke up and I spent months looking for them to get them to reconsile with one another. Which was followed by the Tournament of Elements. Well you know the rest from there" I sighed

They where silent. "Well then we've got our work cut out for us then" Alya said

"Don't even" I groaned knowing where this was going.

"Alright we'll let you enjoy this for now, but once today is over we'll be making things up to you because you literally had your childhood stolen from you" Alya said
