A.N: Ok, well besides the thanks for the reviews, not much to say except: CHAPTER 4! Oh and this chapter will be THE GENERALS VS. LLOYD! YEAH! XD I'm really bad at fight scenes though, so sorry but I'm just not very good at it. I'll try my best…but after that I added more GarmadonxLloyd moments…heehee. ON WITH THE STORY!

Garmadon's POV:

I sprinted as fast as I could to where we last saw the ninja. The thought that Lloyd could be in serious danger kept me going besides the fact that my lungs were protesting every step I took.

The ninja only had about a dozen snakes left to take on before they all were defeated. My brother finally caught up with me and he called them over.

They finished up with the clobbering and rushed over. The black one immediately asked: "Where's Lloyd? Is he alright?" "We don't know. He rushed in to get the fang blades and we came to get you all.", stated my brother. "Well let's go and see if he's ok" Kai blurted. In unison we nodded and rushed to the cave. Son, please be alright. Please…

Lloyd's POV:

Pythor went over to the other generals to discuss what to do with me while I sat there trying to regain my strength. That hit to the wall really took a lot out of me, plus I think it just made my arm's condition worse.

I took a deep breath and stood up slowly and quietly. They didn't even move a muscle. If I'm gonna take them on, I better have a good memory to remember all the things the ninja taught me. Carefully reaching for an arrow, I reviewed the things I've learned, which wasn't a lot, but still the things were useful.

I pulled back the arrow and shot at Skalidor's back. He yelled in pain and spun around to face me with a look of pure rage in his golden eyes. "YOU WILL PAY FOR THAT!". Oy vey this is gonna be hard.

Fangtom and Acidcus raced towards me while Pythor and Skales tended to Skalidor. Fangtom spun his tail to trip me but I jumped and kicked him in one of his jaws. When he clutched it I punched him in the gut. Clearly he was surprised by the fact that I could land a blow. Acidicus tried to punch me but I blocked it with my hand and flipped him over my shoulder.

When they were both distracted for a moment I scaled the wall to get to higher ground so I could shoot my arrows. "Show yourself little ninja so we can destroy you!" screamed Acidicus. I wanted to shoot him right away, but I looked around for the others. Sadly I didn't see them.

"As tempting as that offer is, no. I think I'll destroy you instead" I taunted. It was fun to mess with them. I fired some arrows at them, but they were faster than I thought they would be. However I did get Acidicus in the leg. I slid down the cliff and shot Fangtom in the tail. Then I ran like my life depended on it to the wall. "Tricking your enemy is one of the greatest battle strategies. Making them believe something and proving it wrong can definitely throw someone off guard." Cole's voice echoed in my head as I continued sprinting to the wall.

Right when I would have hit it, I put one foot on the wall, then the other, flipped over and pushed Acidicus into the rock. He instantly blacked out and hit the floor. Fangtom was close behind and looked rather scared as I turned to face him. I charged at him and he began slithering backwards. Stopping abruptly I shot an arrow right at his eye and shoved him on his back. "Leave" I said with as much scariness as I could muster. And he did.

Two down three to go. I turned to look at the other generals, all very angry with nothing but hatred in their eyes. Pythor backed up and watched closely. Coward.

Skalidor, now with a bandage wrapped around his torso, drew daggers and slithered towards me at top speed, which I noticed wasn't very fast. Wait…"Skalidor is strong, but slow. Speed is your key asset in beating him in combat. If you move faster than him, he doesn't stand a chance." Thanks Jay.

A dagger was launched at my shoulder, but I ducked and quickly punched Skalidor square in the shoulder. Rushing behind him while he clutched it in his hand, I readied and arrow and shot him in the back once more. For the time being he was down.

Skales took a different approach. "Look into my eyes ninja. I control you…" Reacting a little too late, I could almost feel my thoughts and control slipping away from me when I heard a voice yell: "SON! LOOK AWAY NOW!" I shook my head and my control was given back. The voice belonged to…DAD! A smile erupted across my face as I blocked a punch and kicked Skales in the kneecap.

The others looked like they were trying to reach me, but they were blocked by a group of hypnobri. Dang it. Well at least they were here.

Skales managed to kick me in the stomach and I staggered backwards. Groaning, I thought I would puke while Skales began to slither closer ready to deliver another blow. I regained my bearings and stabbed an arrow in his head. One left.

All eyes turned to Pythor. "You are stronger then you look little one. I almost feel sorry that I need you in my captivity." The question I have been dwelling on blurted from my lips. "Why do you need me anyway? What use would I have for you?" He chuckled and sighed. "Ah youth. So naïve, yet full of wisdom. I'm afraid that none of you ninja are allowed to know until my plan is already in motion. Until then just keep guessing and wondering my dear. All the pieces of the puzzle will soon come together."

I growled. I hated this guy. Charging towards him with an arrow at the ready, I was going to strike when he turned invisible. "Huh?" I looked back and forth, waiting for him to reappear, when pain exploded on my arm. I screamed and clutched it close, noticing there was another gash crossing over the old one. Now my arm was just a big bloody mess. Looking at it made me nauseous. Then he reappeared before me, holding a bloody dagger. Why that no good little son of a… I punched him in the gut. HARD. He stumbled backwards and doubled over. When he saw me running towards him, he disappeared. Again.

Stop doing that! Even though I knew he won't. I heard a hiss and kicked where I heard it coming and he reappeared. Instantly I shot an arrow at his tail. He squealed and glared at me. Slithering closer I began to run as fast as I could, but this guy was faster than he seemed. I felt him punch me in the back and I stumbled and turned around to see him glaring at me. He grabbed me by the neck and began to choke me. Air was slipping away and I tried to breathe, but it was so hard. He was squeezing me to tight. My lungs began to burn as he hissed into my ear: "Shame that I need you my dear. You seem to be troubled enough. Oh well." Pythor swung his staff at my feet, then he slammed his staff on my head.

Fireworks exploded in front of my eyes as I let out a "Gah" and fell to my knees. I could feel consciousness slowly slip away from me as Pythor began to chuckle. The last thing I remember seeing was Pythor glaring down at me with those cold magenta eyes.

And then the world dissolved into darkness.

Cole's POV:

I'm sure we all winced when Pythor hit Lloyd in the head. Poor kid. He's been through so much. Anger began to bubble up inside me when Lloyd passed out and fell to the floor. I would not let Pythor hurt him anymore. He would not have Lloyd again. Not this time.

I think everyone else had the same thought. Kai slammed his sword on one of the guards and I hit the rest of them with my scythe and rushed to Pythor and Lloyd. Lloyd layed motionless on the floor, but I could see his stomach rising and falling. Pythor glared at us and stated: "Well if it isn't the ninja and friends. About time you showed up. I'm sure your little friend could have used your help back there." He glanced at Lloyd and smirked. "You'll pay for hurting him." I growled. I slammed my scythe into the ground and he slithered away. Kai shot a fireball at his head and he yelped in pain in turned to face us.

"Grrr. Curse you ninjas. But I will have the boy. And you all will feel my wrath." He then disappeared into the tunnel.

We all ran over to Lloyd, who was still blacked out. I flipped him over on his back and checked for a pulse, which thankfully he still had. I looked up at the others and nodded, who sighed in relief. Garmadon was holding his hand and staring into his eyes, looking for some sign of him waking up. For the Lord of Darkness, he was a good dad.

Then I noticed something. He was breathing, yes, but it appeared that his breaths sounded strained and small, as if it was a difficult task to breathe. "Cole, what's wrong?" asked Kai, who sounded worried. "His breathing patterns sound strained and small. It appears he is having difficulty breathing." Sensei immediately put a hand to his stomach and listened. His expression darkened. "He's right. We need to get my nephew back to the bounty. He'll need some medical attention."

Garmadon instantly picked him up and held him close. We sprinted back to the bounty as fast as we could, following Sensei and his brother. I'm sure we were all thinking, please let Lloyd be alright.

Garmadon's POV:

I held my son close to me as we went back to the ship. He didn't even stir. When Cole told us he was having trouble breathing, panic took over me. I looked at him as we ran, and whispered: "Son. Please wake up. Please. You have to be ok. Wake up." Silence.

We finally got back to the ship, and Cole led me and the others to the sickbay. "My brother, Nya and I will take it from here. Go to the bridge and check for sightings. Zane, prepare dinner. Call us when it's ready." My brother ordered. "Yes Sensei." Kai took one last look at my son before he left the room with the others.

"Lay him down on the bed." Nya commanded. I did and gently placed him down and propped his head up with a pillow. I pulled up a seat next to my brother and held my son's hand. "Do you think he'll be ok?" I asked my brother. "I don't know, but we'll find out."

Nya came back with medical supplies. She brushed his bangs out of the way to reveal a large bruise on his temple. I winced along with my brother. Nya placed a bandage on the small cut on his forehead and placed a wet washcloth on his forehead and rolled up his sleeve.

As if the original wound wasn't bad enough, now there was another one equal and size, deepness and blood crossing over it. Nya carefully washed it and cleared the blood around it, but it just kept on bleeding. I then noticed how pale Lloyd looked. He did lose a lot of blood. She then grabbed some gauze and wrapped some around his arm, then placed a piece of foam underneath it. She saw my quizzical look on my face and said: "This will keep it steady while it heals." She then grabbed an ACE bandage and wrapped carefully around the gauze and foam. "There. That's as much as I can do. Now we'll see how he feels when he wakes up." She then stepped out of the room to wash her hands. I exchanged looks with my brother. His read fear and worry. That's how I feel. Huh. I turned my attention back to Lloyd. As if trying to send him a message, I thought: Please son. Wake up.
