Down For The Count (A Lego Ninjago Kai Fanfiction)

Chapter 4: Figuring It Out

(Art not mine!)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, at the bounty...

Jay: Who took my tape?!
Nya: Not me!
Cole: Where is the spinner?! We can't play twisters without the spinner!!
Zane: AH! Who turned the oven up to full heat?!
Lloyd: Hey has anyone seen the- AH FIRE!
Jay: Fire? Is Kai back already?
Nya: WHAT?! KAI'S BACK?!
Zane uses his ice powers on the fire to cool it down.
Zane: I do not believe so Nya.
Nya: Phew!
Cole: Uh... sorry Zane I tried to hurry things up a bit...
Zane: Oh... That's quite alright brother, but now I will have to restart my dish.
Jay: Seriously guys... WHO TOOK THE TAPE?!
Lloyd: Oh, my bad Jay I had to tape the banners up to the wall. Here you go.
Jay: Thanks, I gotta go wrap these presents up!
Jay then ran around a corner and you could hear the door shut.
Nya: Need any help Zane?
Zane: Ah, no thank you Nya. I believe you would be most useful in the control room on look out.
Nya: Ugh... Fine.
Cole: I still don't have the spinner!
Nya: I can help lo-
Cole: FOUND IT!
Nya: *sigh*
Cole: Alright who put it in Lloyd's underwear?
Lloyd: WHAT?!
Faint sounds of sniggering could be heard from the room jay just walked into.
Cole: JAY!! WE WILL HAVE TO USE THAT LATER YA KNOW?!
Jay: ... oh... I forgot about that part...
Cole then also entered the same room as Jay.
Lloyd: Okay well... has anyone seen the other packet of balloons?
Nya: Oh! Yeah I saw them in the control room. Hang on I will go get them.
Nya walked into the control room leaving Zane and Lloyd by themselves.
Zane: So I suppose you will be asking Kai out today.
Lloyd: W-WHAT?! Ahem... I mean, What a-are you talking about?
Zane: I have noticed the looks you give Kai. You also go out of your way just to make sure things are better for Kai. I have been keeping track of these signs and have matched them to the same actions somebody does when they like someone else.
Lloyd began blushing a really dark shade of red.
Lloyd: ...Uh ... I...
Zane: If i may say so myself it is quite obvious. I believe the other three have already figured it out too.
Lloyd: H-how...
Zane: And seeing as today is Kai's birthday and there is no other 'special' day coming up any time soon, today would be the perfect day to ask him.
Lloyd: N-no? I... don't... ugh fine I do like him! Okay?!
Nya: I KNEW IT!!
Lloyd: AH! You scared me! H-how long were you standing there?!
Nya: Long enough!
Just then Cole and Jay came around the corner smirking with their arms folded.
Lloyd: Were you all spying on me?!
Jay: Haha! You like Kai!
Cole: Jeez it's about time!
Jay: Lloyd and Kai, sitting in a tree!
Lloyd: Jay!
Jay: K-I-S-S-I-N-G
Lloyd: S-stop! Besides I'm sure he doesn't like me back...
Zane: Falsehood!
Lloyd, Jay And Cole: Huh?
Nya: Oh please, It's so obvious he likes you too!
Lloyd: Really?! H-how do you know?
Zane: I have noticed the faint blush he tries to hide whenever he is around you and that he too goes out of his way to make sure you are happy.
Lloyd: Wow I- I never noticed...
Nya: And he also told you how he got his scar didn't he?
Jay and Cole: WHAT?! HE TOLD YOU??
Lloyd: Well... didn't he tell you guys?
Jay: No, every time we ask he runs off getting all defensive and angry about it!
Nya: Yeah he doesn't like talking about it so it really means something that he told you doesn't it?
Lloyd: I didn't even know he didn't like talking about it. Although I can understand why...
Cole: Didn't he run off when you asked?
Lloyd: No, he didn't? He did seam a little uncomfortable and upset though not that I think about it. Which I suppose is normal for this.
Zane: He didn't run off? That's new. I must keep a new data file on this!
Nya: So how are you going to tell him you like him?
Jay: Yeah tell us!
Lloyd: Uh, I'd rather not say till it's over. Just in case.
Cole: Aw please?
Lloyd: Nuh uh.
Jay: What! Why?
Lloyd: Cause none of you guys know how to keep secrets! And you need to mind your own business.
Jay: Ugh, fine! Can you at least tell us how he got his scar?
Lloyd and Nya: NO!!
Cole: Jeez we're not that far away!
Lloyd: Sorry... It's just that...
Nya: Well, imagine Kai the angriest you have seen him-
Jay: Oh god-
Nya: And then times that by a hundred.
Lloyd: Yeah that's probably what he would do to us.
Cole: Holy moly!
Jay: That's one angry flame!
Zane: If I may, I advise you all get back to your jobs as Kai will be returning in around 30 minutes.
Nya: Uh oh...
Jay: AH! IM NOT READY!
Cole: GOTTA GO GUYS! SEE YA!
Lloyd: I need to finish setting up too!
Nya: Okay, good luck guys!
