Never Trust a Snake
Akira P.O.V In shared bedroom
It has been a couple of days since we seen and saved Jay's parents from the Fangpyre and from turning into snakes. But the most surprising thing was learning that Monkey King is now a big brother to the little baby monkey that appeared from the crystal monkey that he found. Since Monkey King has no knowledge of being a big brother, Kai and Nya were teaching him the basics of having a older sibling from their own point of view. I was surprised to see how serious Monkey King is, he was paying close attention and taking notes. But the huge problem is what to name the little monkey
'Everyone are trying to think of a name for the little monkey, we know the gender, a girl. But coming up a name is hard because she cries from the different names we come up with. I wonder which name she'll like?' While I was lost in thought, I felt something tugging on my dress. I looked down and saw the little monkey with her arms up
"Up please!" The little monkey asked and I picked her up, and she hugged me
'She's really adorable!' I thought to myself, and my thoughts went to Lloyd. A child alone out there, trying to be like his father by opening the tombs of the Serpentine 'I need to find him and bring him back here, I have a bad feeling something is gonna happen. But I know MK and the others including the ninja would be wondering where I disappeared to. I know, maybe I'll ask Mei if she can make some type of tracking device' I left my room to look for Mei
While looking for Mei, I bumped into Nya
"Oh! There she is. She needs to stop disappearing like that" Nya said as she looked relieved to see the little monkey girl and took her into her arms "I was teaching Wukong how to hold her properly, so we were looking for her everywhere"
"I see. She was outside with me and wanted me to hold her" I said "No more disappearing on others, okay?" The little monkey girl nodded her head in understanding "Hey, Nya. Have you seen Mei? I want to ask her something"
"Hmmm. I think saw her in the deck training with MK. They wanted to get some training done before the guys turn" Nya said
"Thanks" I thanked her and went to the deck
Deck
When I got to the Deck, I saw Mei and MK training or having a small competition. From what I can see, it looked like they're trying to break Kai's speed record. But they were hit in the face by the training axe
"Ow!" MK cried "Oh man! We were so close at that time" MK said
"No kidding, but I'm not gonna give up! I'll be the first to beat Kai's speed record!" Mei declared
"No way! It's gonna be me!" MK said
'Oh geez' I sweat drop at the sight
"Hey, Mei!" I called out to her and she looked in my direction
"Hey, Akira! What's up?" Mei asked as she and MK walked towards me
"I need you to make me something, can you make a small tracker for me?" I asked
"Why? I already made a couple of them" Mei said, MK and I looked at her with a confused look on our faces
"What?" MK and I said, and Mei pulled out her phone and showed a video of us right now
"I attached both camera and trackers to all of you guys including the ninjas a while back. Not so creepy now, is it?" Mei said
"It's a little creepy" MK said
"I agree" I said "Well, I'm gonna head out. Mei, I'll message you if I'm gonna be late" I said jumped off the Bounty and landed on the ground
'I'm really glad that we were by the mountains, or it'll be one long trip down' I thought as I started walking and my search for Lloyd has begun
No One P.O.V
Lloyd was with the Fangpyre as they made their way to meet with the Hypnobrai, the battle was taking place in a snowy mountains. As they marched, Lloyd saw the Hypnobrai army
"The Hypnobrai. Now to teach them a lesson for betraying Lloyd Garmadon!" Lloyd said and Fangtom looked at him "Uh... Do your thing, Fangpyre. I let you out of your hole for a reason"
"Attack!" Fangtom ordered his army, but as they drew close, Fangtom looked happy
"Skales, my old chum"
"I didn't think I'd be fighting you" Then Fangtom noticed Skales's appearance
"Hm, moved up in the world, have we?"
"If it isn't the Fangpyre. Of all the cold-blooded to creep up on us, I'm glad that it is a friend" Skales said and Lloyd looked confused
"Wait, I thought you were enemies. Not friends" Lloyd said
"We were at war"
"But seeing that Skales is now leading them, well, I don't see why we can't be comrades" Fangtom said
"Had you release the Constrictai, the Venomari, or heaven forbid the Anacondrai, then we would've had a tussle" Skales said
"A tussle? A tussle?! But I'm Lloyd Garmadon, bringer of evil!" Lloyd shouted
"Heh-heh. What should we do with him?" Skales asked
"I could turn him into one of us" Fangtom suggested
"Hm... No, the little tyke is pretty useless" Skales said
"What if you hypnotize him, and make him think he's a pig?"
"That'd be pretty funny" Skales said as he and Fangtom both started to laugh on the idea, Lloyd used the opportunity to run away, but was surrounded by both the Fangpyre and the Hypnobrai. Lloyd climbs onto one of the vehicles that Fangpyre turned, but was flung away. Lloyd face planted on the snow, far away from the two tribes
"By the way Skales, you won't believe who we saw" Fangom said
"Who did you see?" Skales asked
"We saw a..."
"Beautiful young woman with long black hair"
"Is she wearing a red dress and is very strong?" Skales asked
"Yes. Did you..."
Know her?"
"In fact, I do. Her name is Akira, she's quite the beauty. But it seems she came from a different world along with her friends. Three of are human, one is a demon who controls fire, two are talking animals, and one big blue man with weird things on his hands" Skales explains
"I see, but I don't care if she's from a different world..."
"She will be mine" Fangtom said
"So, you also have developed feelings for the girl. But I guess I don't mind sharing her with you" Skales said
"Then it's a..."
"Agreement" Fangtom said
Akira P.O.V - Sunset
I spent most of my day trying to find Lloyd, and so far no luck. Right now, I'm walking through the desert
'I better find somewhere to rest, and I need to let Mei know that I'll be coming back tomorrow' I thought to myself, and saw something up ahead
Up ahead, I see a rock formation of what looks like a giant fang. I decided to walk towards the formation and upon further inspection, I can see a door
'Is there something inside?' I decided to investigate the inside, if it's safe, I'll stay here for the night and head back to the Bounty in the morning. I pulled out my phone and sent Mei a message to let her know about my whereabouts and told her not to tell the others. When I entered inside, it was dark, but I did find a flashlight on the ground 'Is someone here? If so, who?' I picked up the flashlight and in front of me was a skeletal remains of a Serpentine
"Ah!" I screamed a bit and I almost dropped the flashlight. After I recomposed myself, I heard voices up ahead and I recognized one voice "That voice... It's Lloyd!" I ran towards the voice and I saw Lloyd "Lloyd!"
Lloyd turned around and saw me
"Oh! It's the you, the strong lady" Lloyd said and I let out a breath of relief
"Thank goodness you're alright. I was really worried about you" I said
"You were?" Lloyd asked as his cheeks started to turn pink a little
"Yeah. But what is this place? What happened here and what kind of Serpentine are they?" Before Lloyd could answer, I heard something from behind. I lifted up my fist and punched the wall, and there I saw a Serpentine. He looked horrified at my strength and for the first time, I opened my eyes revealing my red eyes
"Be lucky, I missed. If I didn't... you'll be dead by now" I said as I pulled my fist away and closed my eyes again. I turned to look at Lloyd "Lloyd, we're leaving. Now" I was about to take him out of here
"Wait! I can't!" Lloyd said
"Why?" I asked
"W-Well, um... Pythor is the only Anacondrai left now! I won't be able to cause any chaos because I don't have an army but him! And I want to get my revenge at my old school, so I want Pythor to help me. So please" Lloyd begged and I thought about it for a minute to think about, and I finally gave in
"Sigh. Alright. But I'm keeping an eye on you and your friend" I said as I looked at the Anacondrai named Pythor
"Thanks! But I have no idea what your name is" Lloyd said
"Oh! How rude of me. My name is Akira" I introduced myself
"It's nice to meet you, Akira" Then Lloyd hugged me and I hugged him back. Lloyd started yawning
"I believe it's time for you to go to sleep" I said
"Yeah. Goodnight Akira, Pythor" Lloyd said as he layed down and went to sleep
I left Lloyd's side for a bit, and I quickly took out my phone and I contacted Mei
"Hello?"
"Mei, I need you to tell Wu and the others, this is serious" I said
"What is it?" Mei asked
"Lloyd opened another Serpentine tomb, it's a Anacondrai. Lloyd plans on attacking his school for revenge tomorrow, and I believe Wu and the ninja know which school he's talking about" I said
"Got it! And please be careful" Mei said and I hanged up
"Who were you talking to?" I heard Pythor from behind me and I swung my arm to hit him, but he dodged it
"Why should I tell you? I don't trust you" I glared at Pythor and walked back to Lloyd's side and fell asleep
No One P.O.V - The Next Day
The next morning, Akira, Lloyd and Pythor went to Darkley's School for Bad Boys. Once they got to the school, Lloyd and Pythor started breaking into classes and tied up both the students and teachers. After tying up everyone, Lloyd and Pythor set up different traps in the school and now they're walking through the hallway
"Hey, how are the booby traps?" Lloyd asked Pythor
"Every door, window and hole into this place are spring loaded" Pythor said
"Ah, good. I'm sick and tired of those ninja including those weirdos from a different world sneaking their way into my evil doings" Lloyd said
"Lloyd, you do know I'm from a different world too" Akira said
"But you're not weird. You're pretty cool" Lloyd said
"And beautiful" Pythor mumbled under his breath
With the ninja and the others
The group arrived at Darkley's after Mei told everyone the day before
"Looks quiet down there. Should we infiltrate using stealth?" Zane asked
"Ah, we've done that. What about using our Golden Weapons that turn into our vehicles?" Kai asked
"Aren't you guys still working on the kinks on the vehicles?" MK asked the group, but nobody spoke
"Oh! I have an idea!" Mei said
"And now I have a feeling it's a bad one" Red Son said
He was right. The group were holding on to the anchor
"Uh... Mei, are you sure this is a good idea?" MK asked nervously
"Oh course! Now hold tight!" Mei said as she hit the button and the anchor falls
"Does Mei always come up with crazy like that?" Nya asked and Pigsy, Tang and Sandy nodded
"I'm surprised you didn't go with them Monkey King" Tang said
"I would go, but the little one will not leave my side" Wukong said as the little monkey girl held on to his arm while chirping happily
Everyone was screaming except for Mei who was laughing at the thrill, and the anchor crashes through the roof of the school. Everyone started coughing after the crash landing
"Okay, let's agree to never do that again" Cole said and everyone agreed while Mei pouted
Then they noticed the tied up students and two skeletons tied upside down
"Aaaah! The skeletons are alive!" MK freaked out
"Interesting. I never seen skeletons like this before" Red Son said as he inspected the tied skeletons "Maybe I should bring them back and study them. I wish to know how they're able to move around and test their intelligence"
"I wouldn't waste your time on them. Kruncha and Nuckal are both the dumbest ones we know" Cole said as he freed the students and turned to look at the two "If we cut you down, we better not catch you hanging around Ninjago again, or else" Cole held up his scythe to prove his point, Kruncha and Nuckal quickly nodded and Cole cut down the rope, and they quickly left
"He's on the top of the building. Let's get him!" Kai said and they split up. Kai, Zane and MK took the stairs, Cole and Mei climbed up using the anchor's chain, and Jay and Red Son used the elevator. When Kai, Zane and MK entered a classroom, but were later covered in slime and unable to move
Cole and Mei were still climbing the chain, and jumped off to where Pythor is
"Woah! That's one big looking snake!" Mei said as she took a picture
"Focus, Mei! Prepare to eat dust!" Cole charged towards Pythor, but Pythor pulled a rope and dust was all over Cole. He was coughing nonstop and Pythor used the opportunity to get away. Mei was about to follow, but something caught her eye. In a glass case was her family's sword
"What the? How did the sword get here?" Mei wondered as she grabbed the sword "Well, at least I have a weapon with me now"
Then Jay and Red Son exited out from the elevator
"Akira was right about Lloyd having a Serpentine with him. Watch out for booby traps" Cole warned the two as he continued coughing
Jay and Red Son started going after Pythor, and were surprised to see how big he was compared to the other Serpentine that they seen so far
"Ah! That's one big snake" Jay said
"Indeed" Red Son said and they started following Pythor to the roof of the school
On the roof
"They're coming! Akira, they're coming!" Lloyd said as he started running around and Pythor entered the roof and blocked the door with a huge piece of wood. Then Red Son blasted through the roof along with Jay as he took out his nunchucks
"Shocked to see me?" Jay asked
"Really? Shocked to see me? That's what you came up with?" Red Son asked as he looked disappointed
"Can you not blame me right now?" Jay asked
"Do something!" Lloyd demanded, and Pythor stole the map from his pocket. Lloyd was shocked "Wha-What are you doing? I thought you were my friend"
"Friend? All you wanted was to make the Serpentine your slaves. Well sorry, dear boy, but I have other plans" Pythor said, and a piece of the roof tile was thrown at him by an angry Akira
"I'll make you pay for making a fool out of a child!" Akira said as she continued throwing the pieces of the roof tiles at him. Pythor quickly turned himself invisible and made his escape "Tsk! He got away"
Then the ninja and MK and Mei got to the roof and the Bounty landed by the roof
"Lloyd Montgomery Garmadon, you come here right now!" Wu said, and Akira picked him up, and boarded on the ship without him making a fuss
"What should we do with him? Wash out his mouth with soap for a year?" Cole asked
"Ground him indefinitely?" Kai asked
"Have him sit in a corner for a century?" Zane asked, but they earned slaps on the back of their heads
"You will do no such thing!" Akira shouted at them
"I know exactly what we must do" Wu said and Lloyd gulped in fear and held onto Akira
Nightfall
"And that is why Jack the rabbit never trusts a snake. The End" Wu finished telling a story to Lloyd
"Oh, if my dad read me that book, I would never have made that mistake. I'm sorry, uncle" Lloyd apologized
"Oh, you do not need to apologize. I'm sure that if your father was still here, it would be the first book he'd read. Goodnight, nephew. Sweet dreams" Wu said
"Goodnight, uncle" Lloyd said as he started to fall asleep
Once Wu left Lloyd's room, he saw the ninja standing in the hallway
"I don't get it, sensei"
"Why isn't the little brat getting punished?" Jay asked
"Yeah, we trained all day and he gets read a bedtime story? It's not fair" Cole complained
"Hm, you're right, I nearly forgot. Why are you not still training? Did you find the answer to the riddle?" Wu asked and the ninja sighed
"No, sensei. We still don't know what the best way to defeat your enemy is" Kai said as they started to back to the deck to train
"It's to make them your friend" Wu gave them the answer, and the ninja now know
With Akira, she was in her shared room, when she heard the door opening. She saw Wukong carrying the sleeping little monkey girl
"So how are the lessons so far?" Akira asked
"They're good. Both Kai and Nya really helped me understand on how to raise a little sibling" Wukong said
"That's good" Akira said "So have you come up with a name?"
"Well, actually I have. I decided to name her Ruby" Wukong said
"Ruby. That's a nice name" Akira said with a small smile "I'm sure you'll be a great big brother"
That made Wukong's cheeks turn red
"Ah, yeah. So I'll see you tomorrow morning. I'm sure you're still exhausted" Wukong said as he started leaving the room
'I should go to sleep. There's gonna be more craziness in the following days' Akira thought as she started laying on her bed and fell asleep, but didn't notice a shadow who looked at her with a smirk
