To Find a Way

Chapter 3: Memories and Nightmares

Real quick, picture Harumi watching this video after she raises Garmadon from the dead. What is her reaction? Tell me in the comments. Ok now back to the story.

Lloyd felt himself waking up but refused to open his eyes. he didn't want it to be a dream there was no way that he had escaped. Was there? Against his better judgment, he cracked open an eye. It wasn't a dream! He was still in his mother's arms, she must have fallen asleep shortly after he did. A tear slid down his cheek, he was home. He shifted his position so he could see his mom. She felt his small movement and slowly woke up, looking down in her little boy's beautiful green eyes.

"Sorry, did I wake you?" he said in a small voice.

"No, you're fine Lloyd," she replied and kissed his forehead. "I'm just happy to have you back safe and sound." She pulled him to her never wanting to let him go. They sat there quietly for a while until Misako asked. "Are you hungry?" Lloyd nods. The two stood and went to find some breakfast.

Zane was making sourdough French toast (Completely recommend.) as the mother and son walked in. 

"Good morning Misako, Lloyd."  he greeted with a warm smile. He placed the last few slices onto a plate. Misako returned the jester and sat down, pulling her son closely to her side. He snuggled into his mother's side shivering, his fever was probably rising, but he didn't care he was home and the food smelled great.

## Morro P.O.V ##

I was walking out of my room when young eight-year-old Lloyd ran into my leg. Causing him to fall backward.

"Sorry, Mo."  he said.

"What's wrong?" I asked, then realize his mischievous grin. " Waaaait..."  I began, then all of the sudden.

"Lloyd!!!!!!!" yelled a group of voices. 

"Hide me!! Please." Lloyd said. 

"Ok, but you owe me," I reply pulling him to his feet. "Hop on," I say turning my back to him. He clambered on. I put my arms under his legs, supporting him so he could be prepared for the piggyback ride of his life. I ran until I found a closet. I put Lloyd on his feet and opened the door allowing him to enter. I closed the door behind us and we sat there for a while in silence.

"Ok, what did you do?"  I asked. "I've never heard Zane yell like that." I chuckled knowing the devastation of Lloyd's pranks. Lloyd giggled. 

"That would be because*Lets out a fit of giggles* I turned his Gi pink." I laughed out loud at this.

"What kind of pink?" 

"Like burn your eyes, pink."  We both laughed together...

I shook myself from my thoughts. I was standing outside the kitchen watching Lloyd and the others. I sighed, Should I join them? I turned and walked down the hall the laughter echoing behind me.

"Something bothering you? Morro?" Turned around and saw there was my Sensei, My one father figure.

"I...I'm fine." He gave me a look. I sighed and slid down the wall my head in my hands and knees to my chest. "I don't know it's just..." I let out a shaky breath, I couldn't stop the tears from streaming down my face I took my hands off my face and looked up. I never really cry but on rare occasions, I never show it to anyone except Sensei. I've always been this way even when I was younger, I had a challenging childhood that always left me with a lot of weight on my shoulders, but Sensei was always was able to help. "It's all my fault..." I said quietly.
