Ninjago: Don't push yourself!

(Hello! Welcome to my first fanfiction, my loyal friend (Green-hat2001) gave me this wonderful idea! If anyone who reads her stories reads this, she apologizes for her lack of story writing. She's very ill so please give her time. :) Anyways, this is a LavaShipping. Sorry. I ship these two. The boys go to college. Well they attend, but they are on like school break. So they don't actually go...if ya catch my drift! They are still ninja! DONT WORRY! :) Enjoy~)


"...ugh..." Cole rubbed his forehead. He had been sitting at his computer with his Art board, (A drawing panel in which allows you to use a pen to draw on a computer software) for at least four hours. He picked up the black pen and hovered it over the board. He yawned. He had been working on a picture for two days. He just finished the outline. It was a picture of a wolf with angel wings and lots of pretty patterns behind it. Cole put the pen back down and just listened to the music he had in the background.

"Cole?" Jay had just walked into the room. "Hey..?"

Cole hadn't realised the blue ninja had just walked in. He had his music up loud, it was blasting through his black and green headphones.

Jay waved his right hand in front of Cole.

"Gah!" Cole slid back on his office chair. He swivelled round. "Jay!" Cole pulled his headphones off his head.

"Dinners ready. The others sent me." Jay said folding his arms and huffing.

"Okay..." Cole put his headphones on his desk, and quickly saved his progress of his picture he was drawing. He followed Jay to the kitchen whilst yawning and stretching, Jay walked into the kitchen along with his black haired friend.

"Ayy. I got him." Jay say down next to Nya. Smiling at her.

Cole took the only place, next to Kai. He just sat there. His eyes began to droop.

"Cole?"

Cole turned his head towards Kai.

Kai frowned in concern. "Are you alright?"

Cole yawned and nodded. "Yeah. Just very tired."

"What have you been doing? You've been cooped up in your room for two days." Kai asked twiddling with his fork.

"I've been drawing this picture." Cole said slowly. "It's taking for ever, I've only just finished the outlines." Cole rubbed his forehead. "It's starting to hurt."

Kai chuckled. He pushed up Cole's glasses that he was wearing so they sat up straight on his nose. "I didn't know you wore glasses."

'Oh fuck. I left them on.' Cole cursed to himself in his mind. "Haha...yeah. I uh wear them when you guys aren't around." Cole glanced around at the others.

"Why?" Zane questioned.

"Because..."Cole coughed. "I need them."

"Can you see without them?" Kai asked.

Cole nodded. "Yes. I just wear them, because I need them when on my computer and reading, plus college starts up soon again for all of us, and I need to study."

Kai blinked twice. "Geez. I didn't know you were that serious."

"Yeah, I have to impress my dad." Cole laughed slightly.

Kai nodded. He looked at the others and shrugged.

Cole played around with his food, before finally putting something in his mouth.

"So, Cole. I saw that picture you were drawing. What's it for?" Jay asked.

"I'm getting paid to draw it, it's for a front cover of a book." Cole explained after swallowing his food.

"Wait. You're working?" Lloyd and Wu asked at the same time.

Cole nodded.

"How much are you getting paid?" Zane asked.

"Well, I've been working on it for about two days. So..." Cole went quiet.

They all waited in silence.

"Around about...£50.000" Cole yawned. "Or more."

Kai's jaw dropped. "What?!"

Everyone else's reactions were the same.

"Holy shit." Lloyd cursed. "No way."

Cole rubbed his eyes, "Ah god. I need coffee."

Kai looked at Cole concerned. "No, you need sleep. You're pushing yourself..."

"No. I'll be fine." Cole looked over at Kai with tired eyes and gave him a small sad smile.

Kai didn't believe him. "No...you seriously need sleep."

Cole sighed. "Yeah, but I have to finish the book cover. Study..." He began counting on his fingers after re-adjusting his glasses. " I have to finish writing out something for someone. I have to finish my project and so much more."

"Holy crap..." Nya muttered."You're busy."

Cole chuckled. "What have you guys got to do?"

"I'm not doing my project. Its dumb." Jay said after a small laugh. "Also I'm NOT even going to bother to study. I have it all in my head."

"You might need to study, this semester it's more difficult." Cole informed Jay in a tired tone.

"I have completed all my projects. If you like I can help you guys." Zane said calmly.

"I'm fine Zane. Jay might need help though." Cole said after taking a sip of water.

"I'm halfway through mine..." Kai admitted.

"Mine are all done..." Nya said quietly.

"Uhh...Zane did mine." Lloyd chuckled.

Wu shook his head. "Well. I'm heading to bed. Hurry up and finish boys." Wu left the room.

Cole yawned. "Wow. Heh..."

Kai watched as Cole began to sway slightly.

"Heheh..." Cole clutched his head.

"Ii really think you should sleep." Kai said very concerned.

Cole nodded. "Yeah, but I can't I have so much to do, and I wanna get in out of the way so I can chill..."

"You're going to make yourself ill. Cole..." Kai had a lot of concern in his voice.

Cole stood from the table. "I'll be fine. I'll just get some coffee."

Kai looked for help from the others.

"Cole. Wait." Lloyd quickly spoke.

"Hmm..?" Cole turned slowly to the green ninja.

"You look really pale, and tired. You need to sleep." Lloyd cleared his throat. "And we have training tomorrow. Come on do it for us."

Cole sighed.

"Yeah. We don't want you getting ill." Jay said nodded his head.

Zane nodded in agreement.

Nya just stared.

Kai had worry in his dark red eyes. "Cole your normal yellow eyes look more grey. You need sleep."

Cole sighed. "Fine." He stumbled out of the room.

The other exchanged looks. "What has happened to him?" Jay asked.

"This isn't like him at ALL!" Lloyd exclaimed.

Kai stared off into space. Worried about his friend.


It was about two o'clock in the morning. Kai walked past a door which had a light shining from it.

He stopped and took a few steps back. He peered through the round window. He slowly opened the door.

He frowned. He put the cup he held on the bedside table he walked by.

"Cole?" Kai said quietly.

Cole slowly spun around on the chair, his hair was a mess and his glasses where crooked. He has tired eyes and just looked up at Kai.

Kai sighed. He couldn't be mad at him. "Cole...you said you would sleep."

Cole yawned. He chuckled. "I can't..." Cole spun back around of his chair and saved his work.

He then spun back around to Kai.

Kai was staring at Cole's messy desk. "Jesus."

Cole yawned.

"Cole got to sleep." Kai said.

"No..." Cole yawned.

Kai kneeled in front of him. "Cole please. You're worrying me."

Cole kinda leaned forwards his eyes drooping. "Mhm..."

"You can't even keep your eyes open." Kai sighed shaking his head.

Cole yawned. "Huh...?"

Kai stared at Cole in silence. He then felt full body weight fall onto him. Cole leaned to far forwards and fell onto Kai. Kai frowned in confusion. "Cole?"

Kai could hear quiet snores. Kai sighed. He awkwardly moved his body so he could pick Cole up bridal style.

As Kai stood up to put Cole onto his bed, he felt Cole grip his shirt. He mumbled a little. Kai put him on his bed. He pulled Cole's blanket over him, he then took off his glasses and put the besides Cole on his bedside table. Kai stared at Cole's work for a little. He smiled, before saving it again and closing down his computer.

Kai pushes the office chair under the desk and left the room.
