Cole

Cole was surprised, but relieved when Jay didn't freak out when he was hugged, and actually hugged him back.

"It's okay, buddy." Jay yawned when Cole told him that. "Why don't we get back to the school and you can go back to sleep, okay?"

Jay shook his head. "No, I don't want to sleep."

"He woke me up at midnight," Lloyd snitched from where he was being fussed over by his father.

The Green Ninja received an angry glare. "I can throw the box again."

Lloyd raised an eyebrow. "How? I'm the one who has the box, remember?"

Jay let out a strangled sound as he fought to get away from Cole to try and get to Lloyd. "Give me the box so I can throw it at you!"

Jay wiggled until Cole had no choice but to let go of him.

Thankfully, he didn't go flying at Lloyd, as Cole feared, but he did plop down on the ground and sigh. "Okay, it's bedtime. I can walk. Don't worry about me, I can get back by myself."

"Jay, there are Nindroids in the woods, and we don't want one of them to get either of you," Garmadon said in his dad-voice."

Jay sighed again. "Okay, but I can walk."

"Obviously. Lloyd didn't carry you all the way out here," Garmadon told the ninja lying in the dirt.

"Don't pick me up," Jay said as he clumsily pulled himself up using Cole's arm. "I'm… very… fragile."

Jay flapped his arms, as if that would help prove his point, then he blinked at Cole. "I'm an egg."

Okay…

"We should still get back to the school, egg or not," Cole told the others. "Nindroids, remember?"

Cole took Jay by the arm and started walking, but he didn't take that very well.

"Egg! EGG!"

Lloyd and Garmadon came running after.

"Jay, if you don't stop screaming, the Nindroids are going to hear us, and what do you think happens then?" Garmadon asked. "We'll all get locked up again!"

That made Jay turn white and shut up.

He quietly ran alongside Cole, but he also seemed to be moping, so Cole wasn't sure if it was better.


Wu

Wu struggled for a while to get the cybernetics out on himself before Cryptor got frustrated, told him that he was going to kill himself like that, and helpfully removed the metal from the aged sensei.

"You know what I didn't have in a long time?" Wu asked the Nindroid after all of the cybernetics had been removed from him. "Tea."

The machine groaned and punched a nearby tree.

"What's the matter?" Wu wiggled his toes in his boots and started walking in the direction he believed might contain a plant capable of producing tea. "Do you not like tea?"

"No, I do not."

Blamesphy.

"Have you even tried tea?" Wu asked, picking some delicious-smelling leaves to prepare for tea. "It's very goo- What was that?"

Wu could hear someone franticly screaming something about eggs in the distance.

"We should just get out of here," Cryptor told Wu. "You do not happen to know of a safe place to keep away from the Overlord, do you?"

Wu nodded. "The Destiny's Bounty is plenty safe."

Cryptor rolled his glowing red eyes. "The Overlord keeps it in the Museum, which is in the city. How do you propose we get it without me getting in range of the towers and you getting captured?"

Wu smiled. "The little one didn't fall back into his programming when he returned into range. I have a feeling that you should be safe. And I did not get to be this old by being feeble, now did I?"


Nya

Nya woke up to half of her hair gone and a horrible pain in both her head and her ribs.

It was as if someone threw a car at her or something, and then left her to deal with the pain without any painkillers.

When she put her hand to her head, she found that someone put staples in her skull.

Ow.

Looking around the room, Nya decided that it was clear that the Overlord didn't win in the battle earlier, since he would not even bother taking care of someone who betrayed his "cause", he'd just kill them on the spot and move on to the next sucker. She'd seen him do it.

But just in case, Nya dragged herself out of the bed and observed her surroundings.

Four walls. A window: prisoners don't get windows. A door: Open. Not for the prisoners.

"Ash, I'm okay, I just passed out," a vaguely familiar voice said from outside in the hallway. "Anyway, if anything, I'm the one who should be worried about you."

Nya grabbed on to the wall as she managed to remember who Ash and his friend was.

They're those two guys that Lloyd and Jay brought with them. What happened after the attack?

The last thing she could remember was something large and grey flying at her, and then…

Nothing.

Careful, just in case she was just being tricked, Nya walked out, through the door, and passed out in the middle of the hallway in front of two men who screamed the moment she hit the floor.


Jay is an egg, Cryptor learns the wonders of Wu, and Nya just woke up. Fun day.

I think you're right about the bird, lol. Today he screamed at my toes, tried to bite my grandmother and great-aunt, and flew into the neighbor's yard to go sit in a tree, which nearly gave me a heart-attack. Fun times! (he's grounded, my great-aunt heard me screaming in the shower on the other side of the house)
