(Third Person P.O.V)

__ Nexo Knights __


It was late when they had all made their way back to the Isle of Vile. Kai had yet to wake up and Nya was spending her time fussing over her unconscious brother and everyone else was trying to comfort her.


Echo was also sulking to Zane. It turns out Pythor is pushing for Echo and the rest of the Treble Makers to be kept at a distance from (Y/N) so as not to distract her due to Echo's relation to Zane. So Zane was now comforting his little brother and taking it upon himself to try and teach his brother how to cook curry as his father had taught him.


Cole hadn't wanted to trouble anyone so he went back into Dark Tower Castle to grab something to eat. His stomach growled as he made his way down the stone steps. Cole lit the torch on the wall, illuminating the dark room making the Master of Earth squint his eyes.


Cole proceeded to quietly sneak into the dungeon-like kitchen. Complete with spider webs and rustic decor. Cole hadn't heard the footsteps that entered the kitchen.


"Who is it?!" Chef Savage gruffly demanded. Annoyed that some dare set foot into his inner sanctum. Cole yelped and froze on the spot.


"What are you-." Chef Savage continued but stopped midway. "Oh, um." Cole started babbling, he had never been this embarrassed in his whole life, getting caught sneaking into the castle's kitchen in the middle of the night.


Cole seething with embarrassment quickly said. "I am sorry. I was just hungry and came here to cook something and then-"


"It's one o'clock in the morning!" The salty chef scolded the young ghost.


"I know and I am really hungry." Cole replied caressing his stomach. "What do you want me to do about it?" Chef Savage gruffly demanded. "Humans are too weak to eat the same foods monsters do."


"Well, I'm a ghost." Cole quickly pointed out. "Plus you're a chef that's literally your job description now please come on." The Master of Earth pleaded. Chef Savage gave a disapproved grunt. "Ghost-" Chef Savage snarled at the Elemental Master. "Please?" Cole begged the crusty old sea monster.


"Oh, all right." Chef Savage sighed as he threw his hands in the air. Cole grinned at him. "Thanks." He quickly said thanking the cranky sea monster.


Chef Savage set the pan on the stove and added some oil in it and then the mixture he held in the bowl. Cole was suddenly less interested in roaming around the kitchen looking at the things.


Suddenly Chef Savage's voice interrupted his touring. "Ghost, get me a plate." Chef Savage ordered.


"Yes, Chef." Cole laughed at his reply. "I found one." Cole said coming back with one.


Chef Savage grunted as he moved the eggs from the pan to the plate. Handing Cole a fork along with the plate.


"Thank you." Cole said as he literally dug into the plate and ate all of it, Chef Savage enjoyed watching Cole scarfing down his cooking. Finishing he placed the plate, forks and the pan into the sink and turned back to face Chef Savage.


"So, can I ask you something?" Cole asked the sea monster. "You can." Chef Savage replied gruffly. "It's about (Y/N)." Cole said. "I'm not giving you any information that will help you defeat her." Chef Savage definitely grunted.


"Hu? No, I don't want to ask about that... It's more personal." Cole explained, having a hard time looking the chef in the eye.


Chef Savage eyed him weirdly with his one good eye but allowed Cole to continue. "Is she really a necromancer?" Cole asked. "Ah." Chef Savage said now understanding what Cole was asking about.


"Yes, she is." Chef Savage confirmed. "Could- could she help me?" Cole inquired. "Help is a very broad term." Chef Savage warned the ghost. "What are you actually asking for?"


"Could she turn me back into a human?" Cole asked, hopefully. "Human!?" Chef Savage loudly snorted. "Why would you want that?" Chef Savage scoffed. Cole didn't answer that question. "Humans are the most evil thing in existence." Chef Savage said shaking his head.


"Look. This must be a big scary change for you but look on the upside. You're no longer human." Chef Savage said bursting out into laughter. Cole gave him a dirty look.


"Ah, learn to take a laugh." Chef Savage chuckled out loud. "Look I don't know if she can return you to human. But if you need a safe place to stay-" "What do you mean 'safe place'?" Cole questioned the sea monster.


"Well, humans aren't nice people." Chef Savage responded. "Neither are all ghosts." Cole countered with a smug look. "True enough." Chef Savage agreed with a shrug.


"Could I talk with her about this?" Cole asked the chef. "No can do." Chef Savage responded shaking his head. "You're a challenger."


"What about after?" Cole asked. "Sure, don't see why that won't be allowed." Chef Savage said shrugging. "But it will be a bit suspicious." He pointed out.


Cole nodded understanding what the sea monster was getting at. "Thank you, Goodnight." Cole said grinning appreciatively as he headed towards the stairs.


"Goodnight, ghost." Chef Savage said giving him one last look of disapproval as Cole went back to his friends.


"What is the realm coming to?" Chef Savage mused as he shook his head in disbelief.


(Third Person P.O.V)

__ Nexo Knights __


Cole shook Jay awake. "Ah! What! Cole?!" Jay screamed as he was being shaken awake. "Jay I have an idea." Cole informed his best friend. "But I need to get the battle over and done with." Cole explained.


"What?" Jay asked as he rubbed his face, he was too confused to be angry. "But the fight needs to look good before I can do it." Cole explained to Jay. "Ok." Jay said rubbing the back of his neck in confusion.


"You and me vs (Y/N). Are you in?" Cole asked. "Sure I trust you but is that allowed?" Jay questioned Cole. "We can only ask." Cole confidently commented.


(Third Person P.O.V)

__ Nexo Knights __


Early next morning Cole and Jay walked up to Marquis de Seaweed who was playing with his pet piranha, Shredder.


"Who's a good piranha?" Marquis de Seaweed said in a sweet babying voice. "Who's a good piranha? Yes, you are." Shredder happily swam in circles at the complements. "That's right. You're a good piranha!" Marquis de Seaweed said continuing to talk in a baby voice.


The Master of Earth cleared his throat startling the sea monster. "You! What do you want!" Marquis de Seaweed angrily hissed at the pair out of embarrassment.


"Sorry to interrupt you but can we challenge (Y/N) together?" Cole asked the annoyed monster. "I believe that it will be ok." Marquis de Seaweed said after thinking it over. "But why though?" Marquis de Seaweed asked rather confused.


"We want to get this over and done with." Cole explained. Marquis de Seaweed looked as though he didn't believe the Master of Earth. "Plus we think we'll stand a better chance." Jay offered as an explanation. "Ah." Marquis de Seaweed said believing this explanation.


"It's understandable, given that your friend is a ghost and that your opponent is a necromancer. That is quite a disadvantage." Marquis de Seaweed said to the Master of Lightning.


"I'll talk to the others." Marquis de Seaweed said walking off to the others to talk this idea over with them. With a round of agreements by Monsters, Serpentine and (Y/N) the battle was to commence.


"Would the combatants please step foot on the stage!" Mate Squiddybeard called out to the crowd.


(Y/N) starts walking up to Cole and Jay in the middle of the floor. Both sides slowly start advancing on each other, arms raised defensively, ready to strike at a moment's notice.


Jay runs forward and attempts to kick (Y/N) but (Y/N) kicks his leg to the side with enough force to throw him off balance. While his foot is still in the air, she spins around and sweeps his other foot from under him.


Cole unleashes a barrage of punches at (Y/N), which she evades by backflipping away from the Master of Earth.

Lyrics:


"Oh yeah! (ah)

So if you hit a wall, (ahah)

Get bricked."


After recomposing, the pair charge at (Y/N). As Jay and Cole split to opposing sides with (Y/N) focusing her attacks on Jay with Jay dodging and deflecting (Y/N)'s hits and kicks while Cole tried to take swipes at (Y/N) from behind.


"Get bricked,

Get bricked,

Get bricked,

Get bricked."


Ducking to avoid Cole's strikes at the last second, (Y/N) turns and punches him, only to have Cole jump to avoid it as Jay lands a heel-kick into (Y/N)'s back.


"Here comes the punch line!"


(Y/N) quickly grounds herself and turns around to face them. (Y/N) blocks an oncoming kick and forces herself back a distance away from the ninja.


"Get up!

I've got no time to sit and wait for you,

I'm ready to fight, anytime, any day,

Right now!

There's a million reasons I could see,

To strike you out, when you get in my face."


The fight begins again with (Y/N) and Cole landing blows on each other with (Y/N) launching a jump kick and Cole throwing a haymaker. Only to have Jay follow up with a series of kicks while (Y/N) is off-balanced. Blocking each attack (Y/N) quickly kicks in response which Jay ducks to avoid. Cole swoops in with a downwards punch while Jay sweeps at (Y/N)'s right leg and finishes with a series of kicks that make contact, launching (Y/N) across the battleground.


"So if you hit a wall,

You better hit it hard, (ahahha)

And when you hear a brawl,

You'd better be on guard."


(Y/N) rolls and quickly regains her footing, landing a hard right punch onto Jay's face, knocking him down. While Jay lies stunned on the floor, (Y/N) confronts Cole in close-range melee combat, with (Y/N). However, (Y/N) overwhelms the earth ninja with a low kick and a series of body shots, winding Cole.


"Boom! Baby!"


Jay finally recovers from (Y/N)'s punch just in time to see Cole dubbing over. Jay confronts her by shooting lightning in every direction, that is barely even aimed at (Y/N). She dodges each on-coming blast coming her way.


"Get bricked,

Get bricked,

Get bricked," (hahahahaha!)


Cole punches the ground, resulting in the ground rippling, knocking (Y/N) off her feet. Cole jumps into the air to double foot stomp on her which (Y/N) again avoids by rolling out of the way.

 

"Whatever,

Mercy you thought you could rend from me,

It's not a part of me anymore,

Violence!

It's the only hope for liberty,

I'll take my pride,

Leaving you on the floor."


Jay rushes in and attempts to kick (Y/N) which she blocked with her forearm. (Y/N) struggles to get back up onto her feet but manages.


"I let my hands do the talking."


(Y/N) throws punches and blocking while Jay feints with kicks and punches to keep (Y/N) off-balanced, forcing (Y/N) to back-step continuously leaves (Y/N) unable to ground herself while defending against Jay's attacks. Jay immediately launches a lightning-fast flurry of kicks.


"See my problems punch them faster,

Fists are heralds of disaster,

Power chopping, bodies dropping,

Violence is my only master,"


(Y/N) is finally able to ground herself and quickly grabs Jay's right arm and lands a final devastating jump-kick to Jay's face.


"Time has come for retribution,

I can see but one solution,

Strike until my obstacles are scattered,

This is my conclusion,

I care not for prey I'm hunting,

Enemies know my fists are coming,

See this as an invitation,

Witness power domination,"


Cole charges at (Y/N) with a heavy left hook. Smirking, (Y/N) dodges ducking under his left hook. (Y/N) immediately launches several jabs at Cole, who continues to block with his arms, (Y/N) continues to press her attacks. Cole is still able to block a right jab, before responding with his own jab followed by a kick then launches into a spinning kick.


"With darkness I shall liberate,

The ones who suffer and dismay,

Whenever there's a baddie in the way,

I will save the day."


Cole quickly dodged own (Y/N)'s spinning high kick. He then recovers and rushes in, only to suffer an uppercut followed by a right jab. Immediately, they fought fist-to-fist for a moment. (Y/N) doesn't relent for a second, (Y/N) ducks under Cole's kick, blocks then repels the attack. The following up with a left jab before ducking underneath another spinning kick.


"So if you hit a wall,

You better hit it hard,

And when you hear a brawl,

You'd better be on guard."


(Y/N) lands a haymaker sending Cole backwards, they quickly exchange punches Cole rushes forward only to receive a fist to his chin, then his torso, knocking him on his stomach.


"Get bricked!"


He gets up right as (Y/N) delivers a knockout punch then proceeded to push him down on the ground, securing (Y/N)'s victory as she celebrates by raising her fist in the air.


"(Y/N) wins!" Poop and Deck shouted together. "You did it!" Siren said splaying her arms in excitement as she pumped her fists. "Way to go!"


Jay groans and sits up as Cole gets up from the ground and grins to himself, dusting off his outfit and seeming as happy as can be.


(Third Person P.O.V)

__ Nexo Knights __


It was later that night when Cole made his way through the walls of Dark Tower Castle to reach (Y/N)'s room without being seen by any of the monsters.


When Cole finally made it to (Y/N)'s new bed chambers he couldn't help but notice just how creepy this place was.


He wondered how (Y/N) even slept in it at all. Snoring filtered from the bed. (Y/N) was out cold; with one hand flung carelessly above her head and the sheet bunched around her. In her sleep, (Y/N) looked young, innocent and impossibly sweet. It was almost a shame to wake her.


"(Y/N)." Cole said trying to wake her. "Nrgh." (Y/N) moaned but otherwise didn't stir.


"(Y/N), wake up." Cole pleaded with her. "Brick!" (Y/N) groaned as she took the pillow from under her head and placed it on her face, covering her eyes.


"(Y/N)... (Y/N)... (Y/N)." Cole said shaking her. (Y/N) let out a loud groan before removing the pillow and rolling onto her side. Rubbing her eyes, she looked at the side table where the clock showed almost two o'clock in the morning.


(Y/N) raised one of her eyebrow giving the ghost her famous DON'T-MESS-WITH-ME! stare, causing Cole to form a lump in his throat. Cole coughed as (Y/N) sat up properly. She looked absolutely adorable with her slightly flushed cheeks, dishevelled hair, squinting eyes and sleepy face. It made Cole want to pull her cheeks and kiss them. (Y/N) rubbed her eyes and yawned once again.


"Cole, no one should be awake right now." She said in a rather deadpan tone. "Precisely my point." Cole happily replied with a big grin on his face.


(Y/N) raised an eyebrow. "Meaning?" She sighed in response "No one's awake and everyone's asleep." Cole pointed out. "Perfect time to talk."


(Y/N) tried to put the idea of the conversation out of her mind. She really did. But it was impossible to deny her natural curiosity and she couldn't help but wonder what was on the ghost's mind.


(Y/N) looked at the clock again. "Sure, why not." (Y/N) grumbled sitting up. "Great!" Cole said excitedly.


There was a rustle of fabric as Cole took a seat on the bed, Cole chewed on his lip for a moment before speaking.


"What do you know about ghosts?" Cole asked. (Y/N) snorted a little at the irony of that. "They're dead." (Y/N) said with a sleepy yawn. "You know what I'm talking about." Cole said rolling his eyes.


"Just what I've been taught." (Y/N) said with a shrug. "So... do you think you could turn me back into a human?" Cole asked, awkwardly rubbing the back of his head. "I honestly have no idea." (Y/N) said honestly.


"How did you even..." (Y/N) paused. "Become a ghost?" Cole offered. "Yeah, that." (Y/N) said. "I got cursed by a ghost." The Master of Earth explained. "Ok... I have no idea about how to help you without seeing the ghost who placed the curse face to face." (Y/N) admitted to Cole.


"Really?" Cole questioned. "I may be a necromancer but I'm nowhere near the level Hela was. Even then there are too many variables." (Y/N) said shaking her head. Just thinking about it was giving her a headache.


"Variables?" Cole questioned. (Y/N) nodded. "A curse is a broad definition with over several different types can be distinguished, setting, motive, and condition. Does it involve a cursed object or a cursed resting place? Were they inspired by feelings of hatred, envy, love, greed? Is it a deserved punishment of the cursed person? Were gods or higher powers invoked? Etc, etc." (Y/N) began to list off.


"Wow." Cole said unsure of what to say. "Yeah, magic isn't the easy, cure-it-all that humans think it is." (Y/N) explained to the ghostly ninja. "There are a lot of stipulations."


"Oh." Cole said rubbing the back of his neck. Cole hopped off the bed but tripped over (Y/N)'s boots and fell through the wardrobe thanks to him being a ghost.


(Y/N) quickly got off the bed and ran over to help him. Flinging the doors to the cupboard open. Cole stumped out wrapped in dark robes. (Y/N) suppressed a laugh.


"Sorry about your clothing." Cole apologised. "Don't be, it's not mine it is-was Hela's. This is-was her room." (Y/N) said correcting herself.


"Wait? Then why aren't you in your bedroom then?" Cole questioned, slightly confused as to why (Y/N) was sleeping in this creepy room then. "I don't have- didn't have one." (Y/N) said stumbling over her words.


"You never had a bedroom? Then where did you sleep?" Cole asked rather concerned. "Wherever I dropped or fell unconscious." (Y/N) answered honestly as she helped Cole out of the robes.


Cole became very quiet. He glanced up at (Y/N), a faint suggestion of uncertainty actually manifesting in his eyes. His hand rose, and for one crazy split second, it almost seemed as though he was going to reach for (Y/N). But then quickly lowered his hand, which curled into a loose ball at his side.


"Are all these Hela's too?" Cole questioned once he was finally free of the garments. (Y/N) nodded and looked down at the embroidery lining the outer robe she was holding. The symbol on the back of the robes was a monster glyph.


"What is it?" Cole asked out of curiosity. "It's a glyph. This particular one means all-consuming darkness." (Y/N) translated for the ghost.


"Is that what that means?" Cole asked. He sighed when (Y/N) nodded. "Hela was a bit egotistical, wasn't she?" Cole said, eyeing the material.


(Y/N) snorted. "You have no idea." She answered sarcastically, rolling her eyes. "Hela was, well, let's just say that woman had a heart of ice but she also had a very explosive temper."


"Yeah, I'm not surprised." Cole admitted with an awkward chuckle. The more he heard about this woman the more terrified of her he became and the more terrified he became the more he was glad she was gone.


Once Cole left the room Pythor revealed himself by dropping his camouflage. "See." Pythor said in an all-knowing tone. "I told you."


"So what? They all want something. That's not news. I already knew this." (Y/N) snorted. "All humans want something. It's only a matter of what and how far they are willing to go to get it." (Y/N) pointed out to the self-proclaimed general and the sole survivor of the Anacondrai tribe.


"Exactly." Pythor said with a sharp hiss. "And these Elemental Masters are the worst! They'll kill and imprison others to get what they want. They've all but killed off the Anacondrai tribe, they've already killed you once before too and let's not forget that Hela is their fault as well."


"Please, don't let your guard down. Don't let history repeat itself." Pythor implored her before leaving.
