Set during the movie
Lego owns Ninjago
She was at work when she heard the explosions and screams. The sounds echoed around the office block, drawing the attention of every worker. Looking to the large windows on the east side of the building, Koko saw the almost common sight of Garmadon's soldiers marching though the city. Their crab mechs clambered over cars and pedestrians as they headed for the Mayor's office. As she watched, the Earth Ninja's mech drove into view and began destroying the fish soldiers.
"Alright everyone, back to work. No more distractions!" Koko's boss shouted, standing in front of the windows. Koko just sighed and got back to work, while her colleagues argued with the boss.
As much as she tried to focus on her work, her mind remained fixated on the battle outside. Every attack on the city always ended with casualties, and Koko feared that one day her son would be involved. Though she hoped that Garmadon wouldn't kill his own son, she had no idea how evil he'd gotten when she left him. And even if he didn't mean it, accidents happen.
Though she had no real, thought out opinion of the Secret Ninja Force, she appreciated their work. They definitely helped the city, protecting it from Garmadon's attacks. And if they were ever defeated, she wasn't sure Ninjago city could to cope without them.
After a few minutes without any new information on the current attack, Koko got back to work. She was just beginning to ignore the pained screams that echoed from the city, when one of her colleagues screeched.
"Garmadon has conquered the city!" The hysterical woman exclaimed. Everyone jumped up and began running to the window. Koko followed, squeezing between two people to reach the view of the city.
The ruins and rubble from the attack were littered everywhere. Some building were on fire, while others had just collapsed in on themselves. As she looked towards Ninjago tower, Koko was shocked to see a massive shark mech stood on the top, holding a flag.
As the office watched, the Green Ninja landed his dragon mech in front of Garmadon's. Some of her work colleagues cheered, but Koko squinted and saw that the ninja was carrying some strange, metal stick.
Without audio, Koko had little idea of what was going on between them, but suddenly a strange red light shot out of the metal stick. Koko gasped, expecting Garmadon's mech to explode or melt, or something! But it just seemed to slightly annoy the evil man. The Green Ninja looked equally confused.
"What's the Green Ninja doing?" A man asked, but no one had a reply for him. Slowly, Koko became aware of a slight tremor in the ground. An earthquake?
As everyone became conscious of the movement, screams sounded from the city. Out of the corner of her eye, Koko saw Garmadon attack the Green Ninja and claim the weapon. Koko held her breath as the sound got closer, till the cause of the shudders appeared. The huge, grey cat towered over the office block. Koko watched in horror as the Earth mech was targeted by the red light and the monster leaped at it, smashing it on the road.
The carnage went on for ages, as Garmadon used the strange weapon to target and destroy the ninja. When they'd been removed, the lord of evil turned his attention to the landmarks of the city. What do we do now? Garmadon has won.
The office released the workers early, due to many people wanting to find their families. Koko quickly jogged to the local school, intending to find Lloyd. But when she got there, the teacher told her that Lloyd and his friends had left the class for the toilet and never returned. Panicked, Koko ran home.
But when she arrived, she saw that the whole apartment had been destroyed, like a hurricane had torn though it. On the door, there was a note.
Dear Koko,
If you read this note, please go to the Mayor's tower, ( Now my tower!) and meet me there.
Lord Garmadon
Koko snorted with disgust. Why would she want to see him again, after all of his attacks on the city she had grown to love.
Koko searched the ransacked apartment, but saw no sign of her son. She began to fear that he'd been taken to Lord Garmadon by force. With this crippling fear, the former Lady Irondragon set off towards Ninjago tower.
The true extent of the damage that the monster cat had caused became even more apparent as Koko ran through the streets. Building had collapsed on every road and civilians were huddled in their homes, or running around in terror. She past an ambulance, and sickened to see the broken and battered bodies of victims of a collapsed apartment block.
By the time she reached the tower, she was sick with worry for Lloyd. What if he wasn't with his dad? What if he and his friends had been caught in the attack? She didn't know what she'd do if that was true. But she'd definitely blame Garmadon.
Marching up to the top of the tower, Koko stewed with rage. She had hoped that she'd never have to see her ex-husband again, but if he had any information on their son's whereabouts, she was willing to face him. She gritted her teeth and continued the climb to the top.
When she reached the top, she found herself inside of a small volcano lair. She'd never been inside Garmadon's real base, but she recognised his decor style, which consisted of gory, detailed painting and carvings. She hurried to the exit, where she could see a rooftop party was happening. Garmadon is probably there.
"Sorry lady, you can't enter unless you're on the list." The guard, with an octopus hat on, told her, blocking her path.
"I'm Garmadon's ex-wife! Now let me past!" Koko snapped, not in the mood to be stopped.
"Look lady, you're not on the list!" The guard replied sternly, showing her the clipboard. Koko knocked it out of his hands. "My clipboard!"
As she walked past the guard, Koko saw Garmadon coming towards her. He grabbed a random soldier as he went and tried to act like she'd arrived for the party.
They talked, and when Garmadon revealed that Lloyd was the Green Ninja, she didn't know how to react. First, she felt disbelief, Lloyd wouldn't hide something like that from me! Then she felt anger, how dare he hide this from me!
In the end, she just felt worried. Her beautiful boy had been fighting dangerous battles without her knowledge. What if he'd been hurt, or worse? She thought back to the last time the Green Ninja had been seen. Was he still in the city? Had Garmadon hurt!
She exploded at Lord Garmadon, almost pushing him into the pool. But when he tried to flirt with her, she lost her temper.
"I've always tried to get Lloyd to see that he doesn't have to be ashamed of who his father is. But now, I think he might be right!" She snapped at him, then marched away.
As she made her way down the tower, Koko wiped tears from her eyes. She looked out over the city from a window, wondering where her son was. She didn't care about the lying, her anger could come later, she just wanted to see him safe again.
Wherever you are Lloyd, please come home safe.
AN: I don't know if I did your request right, Rainbowaly03. What do you think? I was writing this from pure memory, so I didn't include all of Koko and Garmadon's conversation.
I don't know when my next oneshot will be posted. I'm finding that, surprisingly, I can still do lots of oneshots during the school week, so updates will be random.
Please leave requests and review and follow.
Bye
