Kai's P.O.V.

I struggled as Liam chained me to a wall. He punched me in the gut and I collapsed to my knees. I looked up at him, wanting to punch him back, but unable to.

"Stay here, I'll be right back," Liam told me.

I watched him walk out of the room. I moved in the chains, slowly getting to me feet. I looked around. I found myself in a bright white room. Almost like a lab. White panels were everywhere, and it was very bright in the room.

"Get in there," someone said.

I looked back to the door, only to see Linda forcing Lloyd into the room with me. He looked pale in the light. He fell right onto his knees. Linda forced him up and chained him across from me.

"Lloyd," I cried to him, trying to get to him as he lied on the ground, exhausted.

He looked up at me, pain in his eyes. Does he still not trust me?

"Where's that Liam," Linda moaned, walking out to find him.

"Lloyd, what did she do to you," I asked, concerned.

Lloyd watched the door close, then sighed.

"Ever since she became the princess," he paused, "she's been injecting me with vengestone."

"That's why you screamed," I said.

"Kai," he looked at me concerned.

"What?" I asked, worried.

"She's going to do it to you too," Lloyd said.

"No!" I cried, struggling in the chains.

"Kai, stop before you hurt yourself," Lloyd told me. "There's no way to stop it."

I stared at him. His hazel eyes stared into mine.

"Lloyd," I started.

The door flew open and Liam entered, pushing a cart with many tool on it. Linda followed him, grinning. She walked over to Lloyd and whispered something into his ear.

"No, you can't!" he cried.

"I can and I will," she grinned.

She walked over to me and lifted my chin.

"You are such a pain," she sighed.

"I get that a lot," I chuckled.

"More than you think," Lloyd added.

Linda stared at me, then to Lloyd.

"Whatever," she shrugged. "Liam, is it ready?"

He nodded. She walked over to him and picked up something from the cart. She fidgeted with a few things, then set them down and walked over to me.

"I guess Lloyd told you what's happening," she sighed.

"I did," Lloyd said.

Linda growled, "I'm still doing it."

I gulped. She walked over to the cart and picked up a needle filled with a blackish, substance.

"I assume you know what this is," she said.

"You can't be serious about this," I said.

"Oh, but I am," she smirked.

She walked right up to me, needle in hand.

"Now, where to inject," she wondered.

I looked to Lloyd, terrified.

"All I can say, Kai," he told me, "is to look away and brace for pain."

I bit my lip.

"I got it!" she smiled.

I looked to Lloyd, scared.

"Please," I begged.

"I can't do anything, I'm sorry Kai, face the facts," he told me. "It's happening."

Linda pushed me against the wall, pinning me there. Then I felt a sharp pain in my neck. I held back a scream for it was only the needle going in.

"Lloyd, anything to say before I inject it," Linda said.

"Kai, I'm here for you," he said. "I would help you out, but I'm in the same position as you."

"Ok, that was odd," Linda sighed. "Anyways, here we go."

That's when the pain struck. I screamed feeling the vengestone enter my bloodstream. She pulled out the needle and backed away, only so I would fall to the ground. It hurt, a lot.

"Kai!" Lloyd cried as I collapsed.

"Release the green one and give them a moment," Linda ordered Liam.

I heard the door close, then someone running over to me.

"Kai, how do you feel?" Lloyd asked.

He helped me sit on the ground.

"Cold," I replied. "Cold and in pain."

Lloyd sighed, "I felt that way too. You'll feel a little better in a few minutes, trust me."

I looked at him. He released my chains and sat beside me.

"What was it Linda whispered to you," I asked.

"Oh, ya, about that," he said.

"Lloyd," I said, concerned. "What did she say?"

"She said, she was going to slowly kill you," he mumbled.

"No, she can't," I said.

"You're right, she can't, not without my help," Lloyd sighed. "She weakening us with the vengestone. Our powers make us harder to kill than normal people. Since she's the Queen now, she just needs me to help her and she can do it."

"How?" I asked, but regretted it.

"She weakens you until you can't defend yourself, then takes your powers. The vengestone will then overpower you and kill you like that," Lloyd explained.

"No, she can't," I said.

"Not without my help. Before this all started, Ali gave me your element to protect," he said.

"Wait, what!" I cried.

"This," he said, pulling out a gold bracelet with a small red crystal. "My responsibility as King is to protect the people, including the masters, like you. She's starting me off with one element for now, so I chose yours."

"So, is my live in your hands then," I asked.

"Yes, it is," he replied, "and I won't let anything happen to you, I promise."

I looked at the bracelet closer and saw there were two stones on it. One red and one green.

"I guess since there's two, it's yours and mine," I smiled.

"Ya," he nodded. "We're both under my protection, so you can rest easily for now."

I smiled and hugged him. To my surprise, he returned it. Then Liam and Matt came in and took us back to the cell. If my life was in someone's hands, I'm happy it's Lloyd's.

Is it bad that I was smiling for some of this. It's a little Greenflame chapter I had to write. I thought it would be cute, not turn out like this. I went freestyle for this chapter, just to see what I wrote and this was just...WHY! I still don't believe what I wrote. Anyways, I hope you enjoy. I didn't really update last weekend because I was camping so two updates today and I hope you enjoy them both. I have another story being planned for after either this one or my Skybound Alternate ending. It's going to be a new generation of Ninja type story. I'm still trying to come up with a name. All I got is Ninjago: Elementalists. Tell me what you think in the comments or if you have any other ideas for a title. I'm open for ideas. Thanks. That's all for now. REVIEW!
