Chapter 39: Royal reveal
"Green ninja! Lloyd? Little green dude!" Uv, Killow, Dareth, Kai, and little Nelson called as they searched the temple of resurrection for Lloyd. "Lloyd!"Killow called as they looked around. Nelson headed on top of the cage that Lloyd was once on and climbed to the top. "Do you see him?" Kai called to him. Nelson shook his head sadly. "No I don't, I don't understand where he could be! How could he just disappear! It makes so sense." "Does anything make sense in this city?" Dareth asked him. Nelson smiled at that. "Yeah you're right, in this city nothing makes sense but that's what we love about this city." Killow smiled as well, "it's this city that made us a family and built the resistance against garmadon. I hope we find him I hope he's okay."
" I wonder what happened to him." Kai asked. Dareth walked over.
"Kai it's fine we will find him and whoever took him will pay. We will get him back." Kai smiled, "you're right, you're so very right. I know we get him we just have to believe so. It just sucks! I promised to protect Lloyd, I promised to keep him safe but I failed." he sighed looking down. "Kai, Lloyd loves you as a brother. He missed you so much trust me Kai Dareth told him. Kai sighed. As he looked at the sky, "please be safe Lloyd please I just got you back I can't lose you again."
~~~~~~~
On the bounty, Antonia, dogshank, Soto, pixel, Zane, and Ronin headed towards the desert to see if Lloyd was dropped there and left to die. As Antonia was driving, everyone else in the group was on the deck. "Do you think? He is here?" Dogshank asked. The four went silent. "We just have to hope in case we don't find him, we have to hope we find him somewhere else." pixel told the group. Zane nodded. "We have to find him, we must have faith, we have to find him. I know we will. On that note, kiddos, we are here in the desert." he told them. As the bounty came down onto the sand,
The five hopped off onto the sand. "Lloyd!" Antonia called as they walked. "Lloyd Montgomery!" Zane called. "Green pajama man!" Soto called. "Where are you?" There was no answer coming from the green clad ninja. She sighed, "I don't think he is here." pixel concluded. Zane looked around and searched for him. "He is not here." he concluded as well. The five sighed as a beep came from a communicator. Antonia picked it up. "Hello?" She asked the caller.
"Antonia, find Lloyd, he isn't at the temple." Nelson said through the communicator, she shook her head, "he isn't here either." Nelson sighed. "Don't worry, we will find him." Antonia told him. "You're right, there's not a doubt in my mind that we won't find him." "Alrighty then let's head back to the city." Antonia told her group, who nodded. Knowing he wasn't there.
~~~~~~
In The Lost City of Ouroboros,: Pythor,Skales, Mr.e,Jay and Doubloon searched for their missing friend. "Lloyd!" Skales asked as he looked around. "I don't understand how this happens to him all the time." Jay started as he looked around the city. Pythor shrugged,not seeing Lloyd anywhere. "Pythor, let's look underneath the city." Skales suggested. Pythor nodded, pulling a switch as the circle in the middle came up. "Shall we?" Jay asked. As they all hopped down, "Lloyd?" Pythor called.
His voice echoed through the tunnels. "Lloyd!" Jay asked. They got no answer once again. Jay sighed. "I hope the others are having better luck than we are." he told the group. "I don't understand what happened!" Jay told the two people that were able to talk. Skales nodded. "Nothing makes sense since garmadon took over." he admitted to the ninja. Jay sighed. "We should've never left Lloyd, he wasn't ready for this much responsibility without us." The blue ninja paused with another question. "How was he when we were gone? How did he deal with all of this craziness?" He asked. Pythor slithered over. "Well I can't tell you Jay he fared very well."
~~~~~~~~~
With Harumi and Nya, they were going on a vehicle heading towards jay's parents' junkyard. "So do you know these people?" Harumi asked her. Nya nodded. "Yeah, they're Jay's parents. He was born in a junkyard." Harumi's eyes widened at that information she didn't know about. Harumi was pulled out of her thoughts by Nya's voice. "Hey harumi, we are here." she informed. "Huh?" she asked as she saw she was now indeed in the junkyard. "Oh right sorry." she apologized as nya stopped the bike. "So then, let's go talk to Ed and Edna." she said leading the way. And the girl followed behind.
"Let's see if they are here and if they have seen Lloyd." she said as knocked on the door. Soon enough, two figures came out the door. "Oh gosh oh golly oh golly oh gosh nya! It is so good to see you." ed greeted as him and his wife came out. "I've been fine." she told them. "But Ed, Edna, this is Harumi." nya introduced her to the two. Harumi smiled. "It's nice to meet you two." The two nodded. "As well as you, young lady." Nya smiled at them getting along. "But Ed, Edna, have you seen Lloyd? he's gone missing and we are all very worried." nya told them. The two looked at each other. "I am sorry dearie, we haven't. If you want, we can come with you to look for him." Ed offered the two. Nya nodded. "We could use the help."
The two nodded. "So when did he go missing?" She asked the two. Harumi sighed. "You see, Lloyd went to use the tea of truth on garmadon but he never returned. We all are out looking for him. We are all very worried about him." Edna's eyes widened. "Then why are we standing around? Let's go look for him!" She said to them. The two young girls smiled. "Follow us." nya instructed as they headed onto the water cycle.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It had only been a few hours since he was rescued from the green eyed lady and little Lloyd was sleeping in his bed. Garmadon had ordered complete silence on the bounty so his son could rest and recover after that horrible experience. Garmadon was in the captain's quarters reading more about Soto and his pirate crew when there was an almost silent knock on his door. "Hmm..?" He walked over, opening it to reveal: "Bizarro Zane is something wrong?" He asked. The fake ninja shook his head. "No sir, I was just wondering what to do since your son is sleeping." he whispered.
Garmadon smiled. "There is no need for whispering, Lloyd is sleeping. He won't be waking up soon." The fake ninja raised an eyebrow. "Then why did you command complete silence?" He inquired. Garmadon smiled. "You are allowed to talk in rooms. Just not in the hallway." the father explained. "Oh." was the fake ninja's only repy. "How is the young boy?" He asked next. Garmadon smiled. "he's fine, he's resting from that terrible lady who captured him." He gave the ninja a status update on his son. "I still don't understand why a person would kidnap my son." he told the fake ninja, who shrugged. "I don't understand either." he admitted.
Just then a timer beeped, Garmadon looked down. "Oh it's time to give Lloyd his medicine." garmadon told him as he headed towards the kitchen. Bizarro Zane followed him. "So what do you have to give him?" The evil ninja asked. "Just some pills to make sure he didn't catch anything when he was captured." garmadon explained.
Soon, the two headed towards the young boy's room. Garmadon opened the door and Lloyd was sleeping under his covers. Garmadon smiled. "He's so adorable.." he said as he went over. "Lloyd, wake up." he spoke softly. Lloyd groaned waking up. Rubbing his eyes, he looked at his father. "Dad? What's up?" He asked. Garmadon smiled. As he picked up the small boy into two of his four hands, Lloyd looked up at his father, confused on what his father was doing.
Garmadon looked down at Lloyd. "It's time for you to take your pills Lloyd, I wanna make sure you didn't get anything from being in those dungeons." garmadon explained. Lloyd sighed, "do I have to? I don't wanna take them!" He complained. Garmadon looked down at his son. "I'm sorry Lloyd but you have to. I don't want you getting sick, I hate seeing you sick and I have seen it before. I'm not letting you get sick once again." Lloyd groaned at his concern.
"But daddy!" Lloyd said as he pouted. "No Lloyd, there's no getting out of it. You have to take the pills do you understand?" Lloyd signed looking down in defeat. Garmadon hated being so tough with Lloyd but at times he needed to be. Garmadon lifted Lloyd's face so he was looking at him. "I'm sorry baby, but at times, I have to be a father and give you commands. I just want you safe." He said. Lloyd looked at his father. "Okay bubba." he told his father, who smiled. "Alright here, let me put you down so I can go grab your pills." he said as he settled Lloyd down. He left bizarro Zane with Lloyd as he left to go grab the medicine.
The two were silent until the fake ninja spoke: "I'm glad your father saved you from that lady. You must of been scared being there, little one." Lloyd sighed. "I usually don't admit this but I actually was. That lady was crazy and I thought she was gonna kill me." The little ninja looked down. Bz smiled as he went down to Lloyd's level going onto his knees. His hand then went and touched Lloyd's cheek. "Hey it's okay, you're here now and you're safe. You're father wouldn't let anyone hurt you." he reminded Lloyd.
Lloyd smiled. "Thanks Bz." he told him, who smiled hugging the small boy. Just then the door opened and garmadon came into the room. "Alright Lloyd." he said as he picked up the little boy, "alrighty Lloyd open up." A little while later, Lloyd rubbed his eyes as he yawned. "Oh my someone must be tired." garmadon cooed. As he saw his son place his head on his chest. Garmadon smiled. "oh my baby." he cooed. Bizarro Zane smiled, as he looked at the boy in garmadons arms.
"So garmadon do you think he will get much taller when he gets older or do you think he will get shorter?" Garmadon chuckled as he looked down at the little boy. "I'm sure he will get taller when he gets older. I'm sure he isn't gonna be this small of a boy when he gets older." The ninja smiled. "Oh I'm sure so too." The two were silent, until the fake ninja spoke up: "is it okay if I hold him?" Bz requested. Garmadon smiled, "of course, Lloyd loves you."
The fake ninja raises an eyebrow. "He does?" The ninja was surprised that the little boy liked him. "Hey, I trust you more then anyone to handle and take care of my son." garmadon informed him. The fake ninja smiled. "So how do I hold him?" He asked. Garmadon walked towards him holding his sleeping son. "Here." garmadon said as he shifted his son to his lower arms. "Open your arms like this." he explained as he showed him the motion. The fake ninja copied him. Garmadon smiled, "okay keep your arms open like that and I'll hand my son to you."
The ninja smiled as he kept his arms open. The oni lord handed his beloved son to him, placing him into his arms. Bizarro Zane smiled as he held the little ninja. Garmadon smiled back at him. "There you go." garmadon told him. "Yeah." bz said as he looked at the small boy. The fake ninja raised a eyebrow. "Garmadon, what time is it?" He asked. The oni lord looked around and saw a clock on the nightstand. "It is about three pm in the afternoon." he explained. "Here I'll set him down in the bed." Bizarro offered. Garmadon nodded as he saw the ninja setting the boy down on the bed. Garmadon smiled. "Come, let's let him rest." the fake ninja nodded as they headed out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Garmadon? Garmadon? Garmadon!?" Neuro asked, trying to gain his attention. "Huh?" He asked. "Sorry neuro, I was thinking about when my son was younger." he told him as they walked where harumi and Lloyd handed out food to the poor in the past. "Lloyd!" Little Wu called as they looked around for the green clad ninja who was still nowhere to be found. "Where do you think he is?" Cole asked as they walked. Wu shrugged. "But it's getting late so we should head back." the group nodded in defeat and headed back to the bounty.
When they were there, the resistance reunited for dinner, "so did anyone find him?" Harumi asked with hope. Pythor shook his head. "No we haven't found him." Harumi sighed. "I don't understand why he is so hard to find. It makes no sense, it's like he doesn't want to be found." She admitted. Kai sighed. "We will find him, Lloyd would never give up on finding someone! or he would never leave a ninja behind that's our rule." He reassured the white haired girl.
Everyone smiled. "He's right we will find him. It just takes time but hey, we will never quit until we find him." Jay said. Harumi nodded. "I say some of us go and question garmadon tomorrow since he is the most likely person to know where he is." She suggested. "That's a good plan because he would probably know where he is." Cole said. "Now then let's eat dinner and then head to bed. We have another full day of searching tomorrow." Killow said. Everyone nodded.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harumi, Kai, Nya, Violet, Killow and Jay headed to the subway to go visit garmadon. As soon as they were there, harumi sighed. 'Keep in your anger harumi keep it in!' She yelled internally. As they walked towards the cell, "Is everyone ready for this?" Kai asked as they headed towards the cell. "Bro don't you dare let loose on your anger, we need answers." Nya told him. Kai groaned in frustration. "Will you relax sis? I want to find him as much as you do so calm down." he told her. "You're right." she admitted. As they came toward the doors of the old sog lair,
Harumi gulped as she stared at the doors of the old lair. "Harumi you ready?" Killow asked his friend. She nodded as they opened the door to the lair. As they opened the door and walked towards the cell, there was Lord Garmadon, who looked lost in his thoughts. "Hmm, what do you think he's thinking about?" Kai asked harumi as he looked at the oni lord. Harumi shrugged. "I have no idea." she answered, having no time for this. Kai was getting angrier and angrier, wanting to find their lost friend. Kai tapped his foot impatiently waiting for the warlord to be done.
"Do you mind?" Nya asked her brother, who shook his head. "No." he answered as he continued to tap. Because of the boy's tapping, garmadon was pulled out of his thoughts. "Do you mind boy?" He repeated Nya's question as he looked at the red ninja. "Actually garmadon, we have some questions for you." Uv said as she stood by kai's side. Garmadon smiled. "Ask away." he told the group.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So how much father until we reach the bounty?" Hutchins asked the blonde haired boy. Lloyd shrugged. "I have no idea but what I do know is that soon we will see them again. Knowing them, they are all probably searching for me trying to find me." The green ninja told them. "How do you know?" The emperor asked him. Lloyd smiled, "I feel it here." he explained, touching his heart. "Awe Lloyd that's so sweet but you're right. You told us about your friends and we do believe that they could be looking for you." A response came from the boy afterwards, "I hope so." lloyd told them. When the empress interrupted the conversation, "Hey look! A flying ship!"she said pointing up to the sky. Lloyd smiled. "My friends!" He cheered. "So how are we gonna get up there?" Hutchins asked. Lloyd smiled. "Leave that to me." he answered as he formed his energy dragon. "Hop on." he called. The three nodded and hopped on, taking off.
Everyone was in the dining hall. "I hope Lloyd's okay, he's been gone for too long. We asked garmadon and he seems under the influence of tea to care about Lloyd. But maybe he actually does care about Lloyd." Harumi told them. Kai nodded. "Maybe that is the case but we may never know because he's evil an—" he was cut off by a scream. "What is that?" Killow asked. Harumi shrugged. "Let's go check it out." the police commissioner said. They all nodded and they headed towards the deck where a surprise was waiting for them.
When there, they were supposed to see Lloyd getting up from the ground. When Lloyd got up, he groaned as he wiped the dust off of himself. "Mrs Lisa, Mr John, mr. Hutchins are you okay?" Lloyd asked looking at their direction. Harumi blinked. "Lloyd must be hallucinating there's no way-" her words were cut off when she saw the three people she thought were dead. Her eyes widened. "No way.." Kai muttered. "Are you seeing what I'm seeing?" Pythor asked. Harumi nodded. "Yeah. It's them..my adoptive parents and Mr. Hutchins." She whispered. "Yes Lloyd, we are okay." Mr Hutchins answered for the group. The two nodded anyways.
"Yes that was actually kinda fun." the empress answered as she smiled. Lloyd raised an eyebrow. "I know. Before you say anything, I know we were a little strict with harumi."Lloyd gave them a look. The two sighed. "Okay okay, I'll admit we were a lot stricter with her." the emperor admitted. "But anyway where are we?" Mr Hutchins asked, gripping his staff. Lloyd smiled. "We are on the bounty." Lloyd explained. "It's kinda a center base for the resistance." he explained. "Oh right, that monster took over the city." the emperor said in a groaning tone, remembering their conversation. Lloyd sighed. "Yes he did, we are hoping to dethrone him soon." he explained.
Lloyd sighed as he sat on the edge of the bounty. Everyone was silent until the former emperor spoke: "We will let harumi stay with you after all of this is over on one condition: You keep an eye on her." Lloyd's face went dark after that comment. "Actually, Harumi can do that on her own. It's usually me who messes u—"he was saying when he fell off the bounty. Harumi's eyes widened. "LLOYD!" She shouted as she ran towards Lloyd. Grabbing a rope, she jumped off the bounty to catch the boy. Everyone saw the young girl jump off. The resistance was in shock. "I hope she's okay." Killow started worrying where the two were.
They all ran to the edge. "Do you see them?" Violet asked as she searched around. "I don't understand where they could be!" cried Misako. "I hope my son and harumi are okay. I mean she didn't have a plan and she jumped off." Kai nodded at that. "Lloyd usually just jumps in with no plan and most times it's fine." Killow sighed. "Yeah I just hope the two are you okay." Everyone sighed and nodded. But then, a green dragon flew up and was above the bounty, there, on the back of the dragon was: harumi and Lloyd. Misako smiled. "Look they're okay!" She cheered.
Kai breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness they're okay, who knows what could have happened." Uv nodded. "But what is that?" She asked looking at the green dragon that was in the air. Kai smiled. "That would be Lloyd's elemental dragon. All elemental masters can now form dragons." Uv was surprised that elemental masters could form dragons, she thought there was only the ultra dragon.
As Kai was about to reply to Ultra Violet, Lloyd's dragon landed on the deck. Misako smiled as she ran forward towards his son. As Lloyd hopped off the dragon onto the deck, he helped harumi off the dragon. "Wasn't that fun?" He asked her. She nodded, "yeah it actually was." Lloyd smiled at her chime. As misako ran forward hugging her son. "Oh Lloyd, you're okay, I was so worried about you." His mother told him. Lloyd smiled hugging back. "It's okay mom, I'm fine." he told her. "What happened!? Lloyd! we were searching all over for you! Where have you been?" Lloyd chuckled.
"Well that's an interesting story." he told her. "How interesting?" She asked. "Well it involves me face slamming into a street sign." Lloyd admitted embarrassed. Misako raised a eyebrow. "You face slammed into a street sign?" She asked. Like that happened out in the ordinary. Lloyd bit his lip. "Yeah it isn't the first time it happened, it actually happened a few times when you all were imprisoned." He explained. "Actually yeah, it did actually happen a few times." harumi told her. "I swear Lloyd, this only happens to you." she told him. It was like: 'the green ninja's curse.' Lloyd nodded. "Honestly what are you gonna do?" He asked. "So are we going to bring up the fact that these three are alive!?" Jay asked. Referring to Hutchins and the former emperor and Empress of ninjago.
Lloyd sighed. "Here I'll explain everything." Soon after a while, everything was explained. "So that's what happened?"Harumi asked. Lloyd nodded, "Yeah I woke up and they explained how they escaped. I was very surprised, I mean we all thought they died. But can it just can all be in the past, it's embarrassing I smacked into a pole." Lloyd begged. Nelson nodded. "So green ninja, is this what you told us about?" Hutchins asked. Lloyd nodded, "this is the resistance I told you about. We were small at first but we got larger and larger he replied with a smile." Hutchins turned towards harumi. "Harumi?" Hutchins asked.
Harumi nodded. "Hey mr Hutchins." she greeted. Mr. Hutchins came over and hugged her. She smiled. "You seem happier." he told her. Harumi smiled. "I am and Mr. Hutchins, I'm sorry about what I did that to your eye." she apologized. Lloyd looked at harumi. "Rumi you did that?" He asked. Harumi bit her lip. "Yeah...... um one night, I snuck out of the palace. Mr. Hutchins followed me to laughys and he saw me talking to Killow, Uv, and Mr.e. The next morning I went to walk around the palace and he confronted me, asking what I was doing with them. I got angry and was going to leave but before I said that, I took my knife out and slashed him." She confessed her crime. "Dang harumi, I didn't know you could be so tense, I thought that was Uv." Jay told her.
Harumi sighed, "The past is in the past. I wanna forget as you all know." The former emperor and empress hugged harumi. "We were so worried about you, we didnt know what happened, at least you're safe." the former emperor concluded. Harumi smiled. "Yeah." Everyone was silent until: "Yeah, so guys, what do you guys wanna do now?" He asked.
Lloyd thought about it and smiled. "Why don't we ride our dragons around the city?" He asked. Everyone smiled, "Yeah let's do it. Alright everyone pair up with an elemental master." Kai said as they all mounted. "Here rumi, come with me." lloyd told her as Lloyd grabbed her hand and pulled her towards his dragon. She smiled as she let Lloyd help her on. "Alright let's do this!" Kai cheered as they all took off. They were now flying, harumi was amazed on how high they up. "I think this is higher than the bounty." Harumi whispered under her breath. "Rumi you feeling okay?" Lloyd asked making sure she was alright. Harumi nodded. "Yeah I'm fine." she answered. "I love it it up here! It's so amazing!" Uv said as she was with Nya. Harumi nodded.
Lloyd smiled as they were flying when a fire flame shot at Jay. "Hey watch it Kai!" He shouted. Kai smirked, "Sorry Jay, the fireball is too big to control." He apologized in a fake tone. "Not as big as your ego!" Zane retorted. "I don't have that big of an ego." Kai told him. "You're right, it's not as big as your hair!" Lloyd said with a smile. Kai gasped. "How dare you, my hair is awesome." The fire ninja gasped in fake outrage. Cole laughed. "Kai, it looks like a mix of chocolate ice cream and Jimmy Neutron's hair." He insulted. "I don't even know who that is." Kai told him. "Trust me, you do bro!" Nya told him. Kai growled. "Whatever, you just don't know true art." Everyone one else aside from the ninjas laughed. "Geez Kai, I thought jay was the funny one?" Lloyd asked. "Okay okay, I'm sorry." Lloyd told him as he saw the glare on his face. Leaving that thought, "does anyone remember when cole and Jay fought over nya?" He asked. "Oh yeah, it was between the overlord coming back and the tournament of elements." Jay called. Lloyd nodded. "Yeah, you and Cole are like best friends."
"Yeah, I'll admit I was scared of losing nya but, I was more scared of losing my best friend." Jay said. Nya smiled. "It's fine Jay. You know after Cole was out of the tournament, my father said something: "Know thine enemy, but most importantly know thine friend." I think it means to know your enemy but you must also know your friend or I dunno." Everyone was silent until Kai spoke. "Does anyone remember after the final battle when garmadon came out of the debris and was human again?" Kai asked. Lloyd nodded. "Man that was when I thought I killed my father with my golden power." Everyone went silent again. "Lloyd did that really happen?" Harumi asked.
Lloyd nodded at that. "Yeah that was the final battle between good and evil. I trained so much for that day. But that's in the past, let's just talk about something else." He requested a topic change. Everyone nodded, respecting the green ninja's wish to drop it. As Lloyd looked up, he saw the sun setting, "Hey everyone look!" He shouted as he looked at the setting sun. Harumi smiled, "Woah would you look at that! man you can't see that in a room."
"Man that's so beautiful..." she continued, however, "Not as beautiful as you." lloyd interjected. The two blushed. "Awe! They're so adorable together!" Killow cooed at the two. "I agree." Kai said cutting into the conversation. "Guys stop it!" Lloyd told them, annoyed. "Lloyd, you're as red as a cherry." Nya told him. Lloyd blushed even more. "Stop it guys!" He begged. "Alright alright, let's go home. It's getting late." Misko suggested. Lloyd nodded. "Everyone head home." he ordered as he started to fly back. The others followed their leader back to the bounty.
~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile back with garmadon, he was thinking about his talk with that group. He sighed. Even if it was bad, he knew he had to show lloyd he really did care about him. But he needed to question him too. So how was he gonna make lloyd talk to him? When a dark idea came into his mind, he smiled. "Oh well I guess the bounty is going down and when it does, I'll have one of my guards bring the green ninja to me for questioning." He planned. But then another thought came into his mind, How was he gonna get out of here? His thoughts were interrupted when the cell door opened. Garmadon smiled as he looked who was there. "Ah so you're free." he said as he looked up and saw the three Bizarro ninja.
