Next chapter! For this chapter, I won't do the whole episode, cause I'm afraid that this is just going to turn into a re-writing the show fanfiction. Anyways...
Prompt: I'd love to see how Zane and Kai's interactions with the geckles in season 13 would have gone with Zane and Kai dating. Zane seeing how annoyed Kai is getting at the geckles and gives him little kisses on the cheek to distract him and later on Zane teases Kai to get Kai to chase him by calling him My Chancellor before giggling and running off.

Zane landed gracefully beside the Mino as he took off the Vengestone armor. The Mino licked Zane as Kai walked up to it. "From my analysis, Minos are not naturally aggressive animals. I surmised that her amor was angering her."
"So we're friends now. And friends help friends." Kai pet the Mino, cause her to rumble happily. Kai smiled softly, before returning his attention to the Geckles in front of him. "Which translates to not-skeletons help not-skeletons!"
Zane walked up to Kai and places a hand on his shoulder. He could already tell that his boyfriend wanted to get out of here and find their real friends. Kai tried to smile, but he still felt uncomfortable with the beings staring down at them. Still, Kai found himself leaning into Zane's touch, almost going in for a hug, before they realized they should be listening to the conversation in front of them.
"-And if they are Elemental Masters, perhaps they know Gilly."
Zane scanned the Geckle and saw the necklace around its neck. "Kai, look. That Geckle appears to be wearing a necklace. Like the one that Cole claims to have seen around the neck of the creature who was in his chambers."
Kai felt his anger rise slightly. "That must be the Geckle that Cole saw!"
The two were interrupted by another Geckle. "Do you know the one called 'Gilly?'"
"No, we do not." Zane responded.
"But we are Elemental Masters." Kai reminded the crowd.
"Our friends also possess Elemental Powers. We were separated and are trying to find them."
The most recent Geckle to speak to them stepped up. "There are more of you?" They nodded. "Then we will try to help you in light of the dishonor we have brought. upon ourselves with our suspicions. I propose you, Red-Ninja-Who-Is-Not-A-Skeleton, be elected the new Chancellor!"
Kai froze. Chancellor meant he had to lead. And Kai hated having to lead. He had tried it before and it never worked out. "What? No, no no. I-I don't want to be-"
"I second!" The Geckle from before shouted.
"All in favor?" The rest of the Geckles pick up rocks and throw them at Kai, some bounced off him softly, other hit him harshly, most likely causing bruises. Zane stood shocked at the violent display and found himself immobile as Kai hunched down to protect his head.
Kai let out a yell, almost sounding like a groan. "What are they doing?"
Kai stood tall again, about to go over to Zane, before he was interrupted. "Congratulations, Chancellor Red-Ninja-Who-Is-Not-A-Skeleton."
Zane took a step near Kai, as he felt the temperature rise in the cave, despite the Vengestone still mostly cancelling out their powers. "Okay, fine! My first motion as Chancellor, is for everyone to stop throwing stuff at me! Got it?"
"All in favor?"
"Aye!"
Kai immediately braced himself as he saw the Geckles pick up more rocks and hunched himself over agin to protect his head. The rocks were thrown harder than they had the time before. "What? Ugh, no! I just said no more throwing!"
"It would appear Geckles express their approval by throwing objects at each other." Zane said. Kai stood behind Zane slightly.
"What is your next order of business, Chancellor Red-Ninja-Who-Is-Not-A-Skeleton?"
Zane turned and gripped Kai's shoulder, barely refraining himself from blasting all the Geckles with ice as Kai winced from the gesture. "Are you alright?" It was spoken softly, to keep the beings in the room from hearing. At Kai's slight nod, he continued. "Perhaps the Geckles could tell us something about the origin of the Skull Sorcerer. Something that might help us defeat him?"
"Okay, sure. What do you guys know about the Skull Sorcerer?" Kai asked the people he now was supposed to lead.
As the Geckles lead them to the "story cave," Zane went to kiss Kai, but he pulled away. At Zane's hurt face, Kai looked nervously at the Geckles. Zane then realized why Kai was acting different towards them. Kai smiled slightly and poked his boyfriend. He tapped his cheek and Zane kissed where he tapped.
"Alright, Kai. Take off your shirt and let me see how many bruises you have from the Geckles." Zane took off his own sweatshirt, hoping to ease Kai's discomfort by only wearing one layer of clothing, something Zane rarely did.
Kai sighed and grimaced when he pulled his jacket and shirt off. Small bruises littered his torso and arms, most of them a dark black and blue, others a greenish yellow color. Kai sat on the edge of the table and gripped his hands on the edge. Zane walked up and placed his hands on Kai's, silently telling him to look up at him.
When Kai did, Zane softly kissed him, Kai flinching slightly as Zane placed a hand on his bruised arm when he pulled away. "I have some cream to make the bruises less irritable. Would you like some, Smokey?"
"Yeah, Virus. That'd be great. Thanks." Kai sat as still as he could, trying not to wince and flinch in pain when Zane put the bruise cream on him. Zane made sure to only put it on the larger bruises, hoping to save Kai from some of the pain.
"There. I'm finished. Are you okay?"
Kai sighed again and leaned on Zane when he sat on the table as well. "I'm fine. I just-why would they choose me? You were the one that actually subdued the Mino and saved us from dying."
Zane ran his fingers through the smaller boy's hair. The fact that it was soft and not gelled up had caused concern for him, but after doing his best to heal Kai from the pain he went through, Zane realized he was just too exhausted and in pain to do so.
"Well, you did try and talk them down more than I had when they found us. I think they thought that you would be a better-maybe stronger-option than they had thought me." Zane responded. He looked down and Kai still looked troubled. "What else? I do not believe that that is everything on your mind. You must be concerned about something."
Kai pulled himself up so he was no longer leaning on Zane. "There is. Just-why aren't you mad at me? You should be angry at me." He looked near tears, though something like this wouldn't usually bring Kai to tears unless he had been feeling guilty about something for awhile.
"Why would I be angry with you? You've done absolutely nothing wrong." Even as Zane said this, he realized that Kai must have been the refusal to kiss him. "Do you mean when you refused to allow me to kiss you?" Kai nodded, and brought up his legs to make himself look like a ball. "I have to say... I was hurt that you didn't want to kiss me. But I know that you were nervous about the Geckles. You seemed very nervous about them. Were you scared they wouldn't accept us being in a relationship?"
"Yeah." Kai wiped his eyes to try and keep himself from tears. "We didn't-we didn't know if they accepted relationships of the same gender and I was terrified that they wouldn't help us and then they would try and hurt us more and then we-we-" Kai started shaking.
"Sh. Smokey, Kai. If they had tried to hurt us for being in a relationship, then we would defend ourselves. Eventually, we would have found a way back to our friends. I love you, Kai. Nothing could change that. You taking measures of protection certainly would not make me love you less or get angry at you." Zane moved closer to Kai, but didn't touch him. He knew that if Kai wanted to be comforted by him, then he would have to wait for him to feel sure enough in himself to accept comfort. It had been worse when they had first started dating, Kai had refused any and all comfort, not wanting to put any of his problems on his boyfriend, but now it was only when Kai was feeling stupid for his emotions, which never really happened much.
"Hey, Zane! Look, bruise free!" Zane laughed as Kai showed off his now healed body. Zane immediately grabbed his boyfriend and hugged him with all his might. Kai chuckled and hugged him back, then sighed. He had missed hugging his boyfriend.
"Are you up tp peek physical status now?" Kai smiled and kissed Zane.
"Yeah, I think so. I know you hid your hoodies and sweatshirts. Where are they?" Was Kai's first statement when they broke away from the kiss.
"Do you demand to know?"
"Uh, yeah. It is. I demand to know where your hoodies and sweatshirts are."
"Well, they're over there, my Chancellor~"
"What?"
"My hoodies and sweatshirts. They're over there, my Chancellor."
"Oh, that's how it's going to be? Come here."
Zane began ran out of the room as quick as he could, Kai chasing him.
"You won't catch me, my Chancellor!" Zane called to Kai, before he picked up speed, realizing that Kai was moving a lot faster than he thought he would.
"Hey! I told you to come here! That is also a demand, by the way!" Kai yelled back.
And just like that, Zane stopped, but Kai hadn't had the time to slow down and the two toppled to the floor. Kai panted to catch his breath. "Caught you."
