Ruina's secret (Nexo Knights) [Finished]

Chapter 9 : Infiltration! Multi-sided Fighting!

POS: External

The knights were taking a break from training. They were in the control room.

Then Ava asked for everyone's attention.

"Someone's outside the Fortrex. Could you check it out?"

The knights and Bella's group went into the garage. The Fortrex door came down. Everyone gasped, surprised, happy, reassured. But also the other way around, he was wounded everywhere, he was weak and needed to rest.

"Clay!!" Macy cried as she ran up to him and gave him a hug.

"Clayman is back!" Aaron cried, happy to see his friend again.

"Is that Clay?" Thomas asked.

"He's kind of cute," Emma says.

"In love?" Ingrid laughed.

"not at all, I just didn't picture him like that."

"I'm glad you came back," says Macy, "There's a guy out there that's hard to beat. You can help us."

"I'll do everything I can," said Clay.

"You should get some rest," said Aaron, "you're in a bad way."

"You should eat. You've gotten skinny," Axl said.

"This is it," said Lance, "Vacation's over. Clay's gonna give us a workout, and we're gonna be ready to pass out when we're so tired."

"But no, Clayman's going to go take a nap," says Aaron

"But he only sleeps two hours a day!!!" Lance cried.

"Don't worry guys, I'm gonna go rest, a little," says Clay, "I'm being introduced? Or do I have to guess on my own?"

"I'm Bella and this is Thomas, Ingrid and Emma."

"First of all, hello and are you from here?"

"No, from Earth. It's another dimension."

"I understand. Welcome to Knighton then."

There was an awkward silence.

"Shall we go home?" Axl said after a while

"Yeah, let's go home," says Clay.

They all went home and went to the control room.

"Clay?" Merlok asked.

"Hello Uncle, how are you?"

"Me very well but you? You had disappeared"

"I've come back."

"How did you get free from the monsters?"

"Oh, the usual. I attacked them all but mercilessly. I managed to lose them."

"Yeah, but why are you so hurt?"

"Ruina had taken me prisoner and... tortured me."

Macy grunted, "Next time I see her, she'll regret what she did to you."

"She's gonna pay," Axl says.

"That's nice of you guys, but you can't risk everything just for me."

"Don't worry about us, Clay," says Macy, "You're part of the reason we're so strong."

"If you say so. Could I get some rest?"

"A little? Take all the time you need," said Lance.

Everybody's laughing. Clay left.
