Summary (Requested by jojobinks01): Prank War
Note: I know you requested Katty from squria130 to be part of the story but I don't want to use someone's OC without their permission so I hope you understand.
"IT'S APRIL FOOLS GUYS! WAKE UP!" Both Jay and Lloyd screamed on the top of their lungs. Kai jolted awake and got his face smashed with pie by Jay.
"Ha! APRIL FOOLS YOU F-"
"LANGUAGE JAY!" Cole shrieked at him.
"EMO PARTY POOPER!" Jay screamed back at him. Then he magically took out a cake slice and threw it out the window.
"CAKE!" Cole yelled jumping out the window after it, but then he fell into a puddle of orange paint.
"Ha! Got ya!" Lloyd laughed. Cole glared at him and grabbed Lloyd's head and pushed it into the paint.
"Gah!" Lloyd spitted out black paint.
"Sorry, my hand slipped," Cole smirked, "Did I mess up your beutiful blonde locks?"
"Why you!" Lloyd yelled pushing hair out of his face. Then Zane walked up to them with a tray of cookies.
"Did I miss something?" Zane raised an eyebrow. Lloyd just sighed.
"Just, hand me your apron," Lloyd grabbed Zane's pink apron and wiped his face, "What kind of cookies are those anyways?"
"Chocolate chip," Zane simply replied and watched stoically as Cole and Lloyd took one each. Then they both took a huge bit from the cookie but spit it out.
"Oh, gross! Ah, my tongue!" Cole ran to the edge of the island and barfed. Lloyd did the same.
"What was in that thing!?" Lloyd coughed.
"It had toothpaste filling," Zane stated, "And I believe this is the scenario where I say, 'April Fools'"
"You got that right Zane," Cole muttered. A crash was then heard from inside the temple.
"KAI, YOU SON OF A-"
"LANGUAGE JAY!" Cole yelled.
"SCREW YOU COLE!" Jay yelled back, coming out of the temple with flour all over him and Nya.
"Really Kai? This is the best you came up with?" Cole raised an eyebrow to the master of fire.
"Don't worry, it gets better," Kai jumped behind a tree. A sprinkler then popped out of the ground and sprayed red paint all over the place.
"Ack!" Lloyd yelped but Zane had grabbed a umbrella conveniently near him to shield them. However, he couldn't save Nya and Jay. Now the couple looked like candy canes.
"I thought you hated Christmas, Kai," Nya glared at his brother who could barely stand up straight due to his laughing.
"First of all, I do like Christmas, just not ginger bread men," Kai laughed, "Second, I was really trying to think of somehow getting you two to look like Kabuki but I figured it would be incredible hard and decided to just spray you guys for the heck of it." Nya placed her hands on her hip.
"Do it Skylor," Nya tilted her head up.
"Wha-" Kai was then tackled and on the ground with Skylor on top of him.
"Oh, hey Sky," Kai flirtied, "Didn't mean to wake you up this early today,"
"First of all, it's like 9am. Second, I was awake when you were still in bed hugging your pillow and drooling on it. But really," Skylor grabbed Kai's shirt and brought his face close to hers. "Why would I not want to spend time with my lover," Skylor then slowly closed the distance between them for a kiss. Kai then closed his eyes and did the same.
"SURPRISE HOTHEAD!" Skylor yelled and sprayed Kai with whipped cream.
Kai made an inhuman noise and seemed to chock for a second before pushing skylor off of him and whipping the cream off his face. Everyone around him laughed.
"Girl power!" Skylor and Nya high fived each other.
"What's all the commotion about," Seleil mumbled rubbing her eyes.
"It's April Fools, dear," Cole went to greet her good morning and hugged her.
"Oh, I know Cole," Seleil giggled when Lloyd's phone started ringing.
"Hello?" Lloyd responded.
"Konichiwa! Is this baka?" A male voice said on the phone.
"W-wa, uh. I think you have the wrong number,"
"No, no, this is za wight one!" The voice continued to say.
"If it's about my credit card, I don't have one," Lloyd groaned.
"Nuh, nuh," The voice laughed, "I am here to call about you pet snake, Snakey, who escaped from his cage this morning!"
"Snake? I never owned a-" Lloyd felt something poke his back and whirled around to be face to face with a snake. Lloyd screamed and fell backwards backing up as best as he could from it until he saw that it was a harmless garter snake hanging from the side of the temple.
"I can't believe I fell for that," Lloyd groaned, "But still, nice one Zane!"
"That was not me," Zane replied back.
"Then who?" Lloyd looked at the rest of his friends but they all shrugged their shoulders in confusion.
"Tis I who did it!" A man with dazzling short black hair in a purple outfit that almost looked like a ninja suit appeared out of nowhere. The ninja all heard the music usually played when some kind of almighty character comes out in movies.
"W-wah, where did they sound effect come from?! And how they heck did you come all the way up here without us noticing?" Jay sputtered.
"A magician never tells others his secrets, you'll have to figure out yourself. It gets the reader's something to wonder about. As for my name. I am-" A dramatic sound effect played, "Mr. P. Master of pranks."
"Again with the weird sound effects," Skylor muttered.
"Mr. P? Phhh" Jay laughed, "What does it stand for?"
"Simple, the 'P' stands for 'Pranks'!" Mr. P replied.
"Oh come on! Just tell us what your actual name is!" Kai said.
"I will," Mr. P teased, "If you guys win against me in a PRANK WAR!" Then a soundtrack for dark foreshadowing played and the ninja looked around.
"Ok will someone PLEASE tell me where the heck all these sound effects are coming from!?" Jay yelled.
"Don't think about it too much," Mr. P laughed, "Just think of it as some special effect for our viewers."
"Viewers? What are you talking about," Kai narrowed his eyebrows.
"Can you not see them," Mr. P turned away from the Ninja, "Helloooo readers! Hope you're having a wonderful day! I'm sure you'll just enjoy all the pranks I have set up for the ninja!"
"I still don't get it," Cole mumbled.
"I think he's crazy," Jay whispered to Nya.
"Behold, the powerful strength of words!" Mr. P posed heroically, "Author! Make me look… dramatic!" The ninja looked at each other, once again confused.
As Mr. P puffed out his chest, hands on his hip, looking towards the horizon. His smile showed his teeth, so white that they shined brighter than the sun. His purple cape that appears magically out of nowhere, just for this scene, waved perfectly behind him. Mr. P then turned his perfect face to see the ninja and said, "Let the pranks begin!" and then poofed away into golden dust, leaving a thick, purple book.
"What was that all about?" Jay coughed, "Zane, could you tell?" Poor Zane was twitching on the ground, unable to comput what just happened.
"Guess not," Skylor shrugged.
"You heard what Mr. P said," Nya smirked, "We're now officially in a prank war, and we're gonna win!" Everyone else cheered.
"Let's not waste our time then!" Lloyd pushed everyone to get moving. He picked up the purple book, "Huh, it says… 'Open me'" Lloyd flipped open to a random page and purple smoke came out and surrounded both Kai and Skylor.
"I have a bad feeling about this!" Kai gulped. The ninja were blinded by all the smoke and saw Kai and Skylor turned to Anacondrai when it cleared.
"Ah, LLOYD!" Skylor tackled the green ninja.
"I'm sorry! I'M SORRY!" Lloyd yelped, wiggling out of Skylor's grasp, but then Kai made him trip with his tail.
"Zane, please tell me this isn't permanent,"
"Don't worry Mr. Hot-head! It'll only last for a couple of minutes!" Mr. P's voice rang out magically. The ninja all went back to back and tried to find the mysterious man, but couldn't see him anywhere.
"I'm not where you guys are," Mr. P laughed, "But you should have seen your own faces! And btw, APRIL FOOLS!"
"B-T-W? What's that supposed to mean?" Nya called out.
"I believe it represents the words 'by the way'. An internet slang," Zane responded.
"That's right, nindroid," Mr. P's voice rang out again, "I'm sure a couple readers just read it 'by the way' subconsciously in their head. I know the author did!"
"Again with the readers!" Lloyd mumbled.
"You guys better step up your game ninja," Mr. P said, "Cause I'm winning as of right now. Keep the book. It shows where I am, makes it more fair you know," The ninja could literally imaging Mr. P smirking as he said that. They took a glance at each other and all jumped off on their dragons to get started.
"Where is he now, Lloyd?" Cole asked.
"At the bottom of Borg Tower,"
"Zane, think up of any pranks we could set up around that area," Cole turned to his fellow nindroid.
"Already on it," Zane closed his eyes for a second, "I've sent a list of possible pranks to our phones."
"Ok, guys," Lloyd huffed, "Let's do this!" And the ninja split to gather necessary needs and set things up.
Back in the city, a group of villains were outside of Borg Tower, examining Mr. P setting up traps and messing with people who walked past him.
"I never knew 'prank' was an element," Morro muttered.
"It's not an element, stupid," Chen replied, "He's probably just a very skilled magician,"
"I've heard of the ninja of surprise before from Master Wu," Morro lifted an eyebrow.
"Master Wu?" Chen smirked. Morro widened his eyes in surprise.
"Gah! I-I'm just so used calling him that," He whacked his head on a nearby wall.
"Oh, you actually miss him, don't you?" Pythor teased.
"Shut up!" Morro pushed Pythor to the building wall and wind whipped around them.
"Calm down, boy! You're going to get us found!" Chen hit the Master of Wind on the head with his staff. Morro glared at him but released Pythor.
"Back to what we were talking about before," Morro crossed his arms, "According to our spies, he's doing some kind of prank war with the ninja. Perhaps we could trick him into setting a trap for us to finally defeat them!"
"Interesting," Pythor hissed, "How are we going to talk to him without causing suspicion?"
"Leave that to me," Morro lifted his hands and spilled the can of oil Mr. P had out.
"Oh, what a catastrophe!" Mr. P dramatically cried out, "I'm going to need to get some more now!" He stepped towards the nearest hardware store, but Morro sent a strong gust that cause Mr. P to slid on the oil towards him.
"Oh, very smart, ninja! I had thought you wouldn't go as far as to using your powers!" Mr. P stood back up and ripped off his clothes to reveal clean ones underneath.
"Oh, pardon me. You aren't the ninja," Mr. P said when seeing Chen, "But are you not a ninja?" He looked at Morro.
"Don't even try to compare me to them," Morro growled. He grabbed Mr. P's shirt and slammed him against the wall.
"My do you have some temper issues," Mr. P laughed, "I see now that you are not one of the ninja. But you were trained by the same Master. One you fear yet want to see again." Morro gasped and took a step back.
"H-how did you," Morro clutched his head, "You're not Neuro."
"I am not," Mr. P replied, "I just know because the author told me."
"Author? What are you talking about?"
"Some concept apparently no one in this world is aware of," Mr. P grabbed Morro by the shoulders and turned him away from Pythor and Chen, "Listen, I can give you what you want. The author is a powerful being. She can even turn you back into a human."
"You liar," Morro pushed Mr. P away, "You can't bring a ghost back from the dead. The only exception was during the rift Yang opened on the Day of the Departed."
"Alas, you are wrong," Mr. P smiled, "I'll show you what kind of things she can do. Dear author, please make it rain candy," The air was silent for a second before a chocolate bar bounced off of Pythor's head.
"What madness is this!?" Pythor exclaimed. Soon Ninjago City was covered with candy, with more still falling from the sky.
"T-this is the kind of stuff this 'author' can do?" Morro said.
"Of course!" Mr. P replied, "And she can do much more! But before we continue our little negotiation," Mr. P turned to face you, "We interrupt this story with Lloyd freaking out."
"OH MY GOSH!" Lloyd screamed on the opposite side of the city, "IT'S RAINING CANDY! WOOOO! CANDYYY! OH MY FIRST SPINJITZU MASTER! MY DREAMS HAVE BEEN GRANTED! CAAAAANDYYYY!"
"Dammit! Someone catch Lloyd before he runs through the four wa-" Kai heard the sounds of cars screeching and crashing. Then a maniacal laugh from his green friend.
"Never mind," Kai whispered into the comm.
"And that concludes Lloyd freaking out," Mr. P chuckled.
"Excuse me, what?" Morro glared, "I don't see Lloyd anywhere," Pythor and Master Chen were slowly getting suspicious as to why they couldn't hear Morro and Mr. P's conversation.
"Well of course you wouldn't have seen him!" Mr. P laughed, "Unless you want to?" Before the master of wind could reply, the green ninja appeared with a small 'poof' with five candy bars stuffed in his mouth.
"The green brat!" Master Chen yelled. Lloyd's eyes grew wide when he saw the three villains, "Morro, grab hi-" Time then seemed to come to a stop. Everyone had froze except for Morro and Mr. P.
"W-what did you do?" Morro gasped.
"Tis not I who did it," Mr. P replied, "And you still have not given me an answer."
"You're not trying to trick me here, right?" Morro poked Lloyd in the arm to get no response.
"I assure you, I'm not joking around," Mr. P smirked and reached out his hand that held a brightly colored handkerchief. Morro stared at the man one more time, then around him.
"I-I'll accept the offer," Morro slowly lifted his hand and grasped the other end of the cloth and the world spun. The master of wind felt his legs go out and he leaned on the wall for support.
"Ngh, you lying bastard!" Morro leaped forward to grasp Mr. P, but in his dizzy state he could only trip and crash onto the ground.
"Don't worry good sir," Mr. P smirked, "I'll let the author know to tell Lloyd of what's going on," The trickster then gave a fast twirl and disappeared with a cloud of purple sparkles.
"C-come back h-here y-" Morro felt himself fall and his eyes were forced closed.
"-ey! Du- Mor-" Morro heard. Everything hurt. His head felt like his brain was trying to break out of his skull by force and his feet felt heavy in the cold water.
What.
Water.
"OH SH-" Morro panicked and he hastily tried to get up, but his head contacted with something else and he felt his conscious threaten to leave him again. However, as fast as the pain came it was gone and he felt more water dropping onto him. Where was he?
"Oww… What was that for," Morro heard a familiar voice and opened his eyes. Lloyd was rubbing a small bump on his forehead. The master of wind immediately went into a defensive pose. Had Lloyd fallen to hell with him? Or did hell just give illusions of people he hated just to make him suffer? Morro guessed the latter.
"What are you doing here," Morro snarled.
"What!? I should be asking you the same thing!" Lloyd cried back, "I was randomly summoned here by that crazy magician!" Morro let out a bit of stiffness from his shoulders. This wasn't the afterlife? Morro looked to his left and saw Master Chen and Pythor tied up by a rope, dangling from a pole stuck to the side of a building.
"What are you gonna do?" Morro chuckled, "Tie me up with those two idiots?" He heard a squeak of protest from Master Chen. However, Lloyd stuck out his hand instead of punching him.
"Wha-"
"You wanted another chance… right?" Lloyd said, almost shyly, "I-I mean… That's what I heard from some weird voice." Lloyd used another hand to rub the back of his neck.
"Aren't you afraid of me turning?"
"Well, it's April Fools," Lloyd shrugged, "I dunno what to believe anymore… But, if you're willing to change. Just for one day. I'd let you, you know. I mean, heck, I screwed up in the beginning of my life too Morro. But the others gave me a chance."
"Sensei has already given me plenty of chances," Morro hissed back, "But I turned down all of them. What makes this any different."
"It's different if you actually accept the help this time," Lloyd softly replied. Morro hesitated once again. Shifting eyes from Lloyd's hands to the two villains hanging. Lloyd, getting nervous, bit down on his lower lip.
"I… accept," Morro finally grasped Lloyd's hand. The green ninja then gave off a wide smile and helped Morro up.
"Great! Now, let's get down to business!" Lloyd have a maniacal laugh and Morro took a step back.
"Uhhhh," Morro lifted his hands to protect him from a potential threat.
"Oh, sorry Morro," Lloyd laughed, "I meant going back to the prank war I have with the others against Mr. P" Morro let out a breathe he didn't notice he had been holding and laughed along.
"Well, what are we waiting for then? Let's do this!" Morro summoned his elemental dragon and Lloyd followed.
Nya and Jay are holding onto a bag of items from the hardware store. Nya is laughing at Jay's joke when Jay suddenly trips on his face. The contents from the bag roll across the street.
"Jay, what happe- Ah!" Nya also fell onto the ground onto Jay. The pair saw a super sticky, double sided tape wrapped on the ground. They hear a giggle from the building and look up to see Mr. P nearly falling off of the roof from laughter.
"Oh what a lovely couple you make!" He laughed and disappeared in a poof.
Mr. P is walking towards his car, that appeared just for this scene, and grabs for the handle. However, the door doesn't open and as Mr. P pulls on his hand that is now stuck on the handle he slips and slick oil that somehow rapidly spread from a fallen can.
"Smart use of powers," Mr. P smirked. He snapped his fingers and the area was cleared of any signs of a prank. Lloyd and Morro high-fived each other from far away.
"Cole, help me out!" Zane was dragging two big bags of flour.
"Sure!" Cole hopped over to help but his eyes say something mysterious.
"Is that a floating cake?"
"Oh no. Cole, you mustn't!" Zane yelled but it was too late. Cole ran after the floating cake. He jumped over a fallen log in the central park and recklessly jumped for the cake. However, when his finger tips barely touched the sweet, soft cake, it blew up into sparkles and Cole fell straight into the fountain.
The sun was setting. The ninja and Morro huffed and faced Mr. P on the Destiny's Bounty. The mysterious man also seemed tired. His shoulders slightly slagged compared to the start of the game.
"I'm impressed," Mr. P chuckled, "But it's finally time to see who won," everyone gulped as he took out the purple book. Tossing it out onto the deck, its pages flipped wildly, and a heavily gold light glowed. Everyone leaned in closer and their eyes widened as the winner was written out on gold ink.
Mimi: Aaaand done! I'll leave it up to you guys to choose who won :)
Thanks for reading!
