AN: First off, if you haven't yet read "Summoning Gone Wrong," read that before reading these bonus scenes that go along with that story, or these won't make sense. This scene came about from a reviewer on Archive of our Own who thought it would be funny if Garmadon actually tried to call his son, while Garmadon was in Show Ninjago and Movie Lloyd actually answered. Beta'd by Sunny Lighter and she also helped with ideas and some dialogue here. EMPFangirl02 also wrote part of this too. Enjoy!
"Look here, Luh-loyd. This is my caller history and it clearly shows that I called you," Garmadon was saying.
"But that's not my number," Lloyd insisted. Though it was really strange to see his name on the caller list, knowing he had not been called by Garmadon.
"Well, I don't believe you and I'll prove that it is your number." The warlord preceded by pressing re-dial on the phone. He held up the phone in front of Lloyd to further prove his point. But Lloyd's phone didn't ring, much to the warlord's surprise. He glanced at the phone, making sure he was calling the right number. Yep. That was Luh-Lloyd's number alright. But Luh-Loyd was right in front of him. So who was he calling?
Movie Lloyd was lying in bed, dreaming of another Garmadon attack when he heard his ringtone of "Weekend Whip." He groaned and held up the phone, which read 'unknown number.' This again?
"Urgh, Dad, did you butt dial me again?" he asked sleepily, when his father's face showed up on the screen. The warlord looked startled to see him, which was kinda disappointing, but not really surprising.
"Speaking of which, where have you been lately? You haven't attacked in—" he trailed off as he caught sight of someone standing next to Garmadon who looked just like him. What the heck? He blinked a couple of times to make sure he wasn't seeing things.
Show Lloyd had no idea what was going on either. There, on the phone was a teenager who looked just like him. How could there be someone out there who looked just like him? "No, no, no. There's no way that's me. There can't be two of me! Where'd you get that number?" he demanded to Garmadon, trying to hide his building panic.
Garmadon just glanced from the Lloyd in front of him to the Lloyd on his phone, when the phone Lloyd starting shouting at him.
"What are you doing, Dad? Did you clone me? Is that why you've disappeared off the face of Ninjago? Was I not good enough for you? What's wrong with you?!" Movie Lloyd shouted, his face red and his eyes blazing.
For once, Garmadon didn't know what to say. "Luh-Lloyd, I— I thought I was calling you!" he said, looking at the Lloyd standing next to him. He was so confused at this point. Had Koko really had twins, but didn't tell him and hid one? But he was there when Luh-loyd was born! This was making his head hurt. Then a darker thought occurred to him.
"Did Koko have another kid while I was gone?" Garmadon growled at the screen, which only made Movie Lloyd angrier.
"What? No! She hasn't been with anyone, not even for a date! I don't know why, since you left us and she's been treated like dirt because she was married to you once!"
"Whoa, whoa—"
"And I don't know why you even care about what happens to us! You haven't been in our lives for 16 years, you destroy our city, and you don't even bother to call us!"
"Luh-Lloyd—"
"You have a lot more issues than I thought," Movie Lloyd snapped and then promptly hung up.
Garmadon stared at his blank phone for a moment, Show Lloyd looking over his shoulder, both wondering what in Ninjago was going on?
"That was—"
"Yeah."
"Do you think…?"
"I don't know."
The two stood in silence for a moment, trying to process what just happened.
"Maybe… maybe you're from another realm, a realm that's like ours but slightly different, and that's why none of your memories line up with ours, and that's where this other Lloyd came from," Lloyd wondered out loud.
Garmadon considered it for a moment, then shrugged. "Nah. That's crazy."
AN: Sorry this was short. Calling another realm may not really be possible, but this idea was too funny to pass up, so suspend your beliefs that it's not possible to make this call. Also Movie Lloyd was a bit harsh with Garmadon but here's why: he had just woken up, he was dealing with the stress of wondering what was going out with no Garmadon attacks, but still feeling it could come at any time, and he's in denial that he has been worried about his dad's disappearance. Also, seeing his dad with another version of himself that he can't explain, makes movie Lloyd feel even more confused and hurt, and so he just lost it. Garmadon of course, is still in denial, but show Lloyd is starting to see the pieces come together. Stay tuned for more coming! Thanks for the reviews!
