#and not only that but lloyd started out as a wannabe villain for garmadon before being the green ninja

[blursed-ninjago-ideas]

Didn't you mention something once about a cookie scene for Kat's Miraculous AU? With Kai snd Chloe? Or something? (LNPE)

Half done, lost it all in the crash. Lemme rewrite.

--

Chloe didn’t know how she got herself talked into housing the red ninja, but she was regretting it. He had spent the whole day making rude comments and judging her. He didn’t have an ounce of prestige in his body and Chloe was tired. She was so happy to be going to bed and not have to deal with him until the morning.

She whined when she saw him sitting on her bed.

“What are you doing in my room!?” She demanded, stomping her foot.

“Cookie?” he said, offering the plate he was holding.

Chloe stared at him.

Kai shrugged.

“It worked with Lloyd, course you’re a bit old than he was. Worth a try though.” He said as he absently started to munch on a cookie form the plate.

Chloe wondered if he’d lost his mind.

“What ‘worked’ on Lloyd?” She demanded yet again.

Kai ignored her though.

“You’re a lot like him, you know?”

“Me? I’m like Lloyd? Ple-lease! That’s just ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous!” Chloe said

“He’s my little brother. I know him better than anybody, and you two have a lot in common.” Kai said as he finished his cookie.

“What could I possibly have in common with…” Chloe struggled to find the right word “him!”

“Lloyd doesn’t like to talk about his past, but do you know how we first met him?”

“Why would I?” Chloe sassed.

“He was threatening a town in order to steal candy.” Kai deadpanned.

“Wait…” Chloe started.

“Lloyd grew up at a villain’s boarding school. When he got out he was determined to make an evil name for himself.” Kai explained.

“Lloyd was…bad?” Chloe asked.

“Oh man, he was awful! He would go on rants about how he was the ‘super evil Lloyd Garmadon!’ and everyone should ‘fear him or face their doom!’” Kai said, throwing up some air quotes. “He tried to kill us a few times too.”

Chloe sat down on her bed next to Kai without thinking about it.

“He….did?” she asked, “But he’s so….”

“Good?” Kai asked.

Chloe nodded.

“Yeah, he is. But he didn’t start that way. He was mean and rude and tried to make everyone fear him for a long time. It wasn’t until we picked him up and started taking care of him that he started to shape up.”

Chloe stayed silent.

“Lloyd changed. That’s something he doesn’t talk about, but he’s really proud of. He tried to push people down and it didn’t make him happy.” Kai explained.

Chloe bit her lip.

“Thing is, Lloyd only ever knew pushing people and trying to make them fear him. It was the only thing that had worked for so long in his life. It was learned behavior, and he didn’t unlearn it until we started to teach him how to be good instead. He found out pretty quickly he preferred it.”

Chloe looked up sharply. Kai’s eyes seemed almost kind. Too kind. Far more kind than she’d ever seen looking at her before. And there was a hint of nostalgia.

“You don’t like being mean do you?” he said.

Chloe choked. She almost wanted to sob.

“You only do it because nobody ever stuck around and taught you how to be nice. Nobody protected you or supported you while you learned, did they? People gave up on you, and you let yourself believe you were a lost cause.”

Chloe’s eyes were dropping tears now.

“I know a thing or two about helping little blonde brats figure out how to be good. I’m sort of an expert.” Kai said, handing her a cookie.

Chloe took it softly.

“If Lloyd can turn from a little wannabe-super-villain, then why can’t you change too?”

Chloe stared at the cookie he’d given her.

“That’s why I wanted to room with you.” Kai said.

Chloe looked back up.

“I could tell. You needed someone to protect you if you’re ever going to feel safe enough to change for the better.”

Chloe did sob at that.

“You….you thought I was special?” she blubbered.

Kai blinked back. It wasn’t the word he would’ve used, but he knew a trigger when he heard it, and that one had neon lights on it.

“Of course your special Chloe!” he said.

She threw herself onto him in a hug while she sobbed her eyes out. Kai pet her hair gently, remembering when it was a small blonde head in its place.

Lloyd getting out of control due to his Oni blood and the ninja being scared?

oH ITS ON (sorry for any typos btw it’s about 1:30 am but i really felt like writing)

warning for violence btw

-----

Lloyd normally wasn't the type to lose control over his emotions. He really wasn't. All the years of keeping his feelings to himself had made it easier to just not let others see what was going on inside him.

But this-

This was different.

Because if there was one thing Lloyd despised over everything it was being compared to his father. And when this wannabe-criminal told him that he was just as bad as his father and that they were both failures - Garmadon for losing against his son and Lloyd for just simply existing - something inside of him snapped.

Something dangerous.

The Green Ninja had never experienced anger like this before. It was like it completely consumed his body and mind and his vision was blurred.

"I am not like my father!", his voice came out louder than he had intended but under his blurred vision he could see the criminal taking a step back from the Ninja in shock at his sudden outburst and that made him almost crack a smile.

"Woah, Lloyd calm down.", he could hear Kai's worried voice behind him and the Blonde was about to scream because if there was one thing he was not going to do it was to calm down.

He had done so much for Ninjago. Saved it so many times, sacrificed basically everything for it and he was still being compared to his evil father? Was that his thanks for everything he went through for this shithole of a city?

'If they want evil they will get evil.'

Lloyd felt a sudden urge to just grab the man by his throat and break his neck right now and there. Ending his life in mere seconds. But what would be the fun in that? No, he had to make him suffer for even thinking that he was the same as his father because he was not. He was good!

He barely noticed how his legs carried him over to the slightly smaller and in tattoos covered male until he was standing right in front of him, grabbing him by the throat just staring into his terrified eyes. A smirk crept on his lips.

"Dude, chill out!" Cole called from behind him and Lloyd turned around to face him, not letting go of the criminal.

The face's his teammates made were priceless, he found it hard not to chuckle. Taking a few steps towards him but being held back my Nya, Jay spoke to him.

"What- what is happening to you?", his voice was full anxiety and panic and Lloyd snorted.

"Stop bothering me and let me do what I need to do right now.", he drew his attention back to the man he was still holding and threw him to the ground, wincing in pain because of the harsh contact with the floor, making Lloyd's smirk only grow wider in response.

"You- you're a bloody ps-psychopath!", he stuttered crawling slowly away from him but the Master of Energy was having none of that.

"Oh, already want to leave the party?", he pulled out his katana from the bag on his back and eyed it for a second. "I don't think so.", he said coldly crashing the sword down on the man's shin, piercing him to the ground.

He heard his friends calling out to him in shock and despair but their words were completely buried by the sound of the man's screams.

It sounded like music in his ears. And he was currently dancing to it, not wanting it to end.

He kneeled next to him and just watched him cry for a second. It made him feel happy in some sort of way.

"This is what you get for comparing me to Garmadon.", he growled, now taking out a dagger. "So don't. You. Dare. Do. It. Again.", he growled again, placing cuts on the lawbreakers body in between each word, his voice not sounding like his own anymore almost like it was demonic.

The man kept on screaming and begging for him to stop, pleading for the Ninja to help him but none of them were able to move, too shocked at the sight of their little brother behaving so- so vicious. It was terrifying.

This wasn't Lloyd, they knew this wasn't him, couldn't be him. Lloyd was a good person. Kind-hearted, loving, selfless, loyal and most definitely not an evil psychopath.

This was the boy they had raised together. Their little baby brother. But right now they couldn't recognize him- couldn't see him.

“But it's not like you could do anything like that again anyway.”, Lloyd mumbled to himself shrugging a bit while letting the dagger draw softly over the criminal's face without cutting it. “Since you won't be doing anything ever again. Because you wanna hear a secret?”, the Blonde's mood changed suddenly as he tilted his head a bit and looked at the man with almost completely innocent and curious eyes.

The man bit his lip in pain but managed to get a silent 'what?' out.

Lloyd grinned widely, showing his fangs and began to laugh. “Oh isn't it obvious?”, he leaned forward to his ears before whispering “I will kill you.” making chills go down the villains body.

He sat up straight again.

“Do you hear that?”, he asked him looking at his in blood covered dagger and then focusing right back on his face with wide and curious eyes.

“Hear wh-what?”

“The blood rushing out of your throat?”, before the man could choke out a word and before the Ninja could anything to stop their brother from making a huge mistake Lloyd had already rammed his dagger into his throat making blood splatter everywhere including his face.

Screams echoed through the entire alley.

And all of a sudden everything began to clear up.

His vision and his thoughts.

He felt reality hit him.

Looking down at his hands and then the man laying on the ground, dead, covered in blood and with the dagger Lloyd's father had given him on his 13thbirthday he felt like he was going to throw up.

Crawling away from the body he felt a wave of nausea hit him and couldn't help but release the insides of his stomach on the dirty concrete floor. His entire body began to shake as he started to cry both in terror and panic.

What had he done? This hadn't been him! He didn't feel like himself when he was doing all of... this. It was like someone or something had took control of his body but it was much different than when he had been possessed by Morro. Whatever it was he had killed a man. He had killed a man in a brutal way and he could remember the way he felt when he did it. He could remember the satisfaction he felt and- He threw up even more.

Turning around slowly - because he had remembered that he actually wasn't alone - he felt like his heart was being ripped apart.

His friends, his family, the only people whom he trusted with his life stood there just staring at him in fright. It took a few second for Lloyd to connect the dots and realized that they were afraid of him.

And he started to cry even more. He couldn't take it, losing the only people he thought would never leave him. And this time it would be his fault.

Hearing muffled voices in the back he did his best to ignore them. They were probably discussing leaving him right now, so Lloyd really did not want to listen to them.

He just wanted to drift away. He just wanted to die.

A light pressure on his shoulder made him look up and he was being greeted by the soft, yet terrified blue eyes of Jay.

“Let's take you home.”

Lloyd shook his head in panic. No- They couldn't do that! What if he would hurt them as well? What if he would hurt anyone else? They should put him into prison or just kill him now before he could do more damage and not take him home!

“No! You can't! I-I-”, his voice broke and he tried to move away from the redhead. “I'm a monster, Jay!”

“You're not. We- we know that it wasn't you. It was your Oni-Side.”, the way the Blue Ninja spoke to him felt very out of character. His voice was calm and collected while his own was frantic and loud. It was almost like they switched places.

“How would you know?”

“Your eyes were purple, Lloyd.”, the Blonde muttered a quiet 'Oh' in response.

Now that made sense. A lot of sense actually. But if Lloyd had just unlocked his Oni-Half but wasn't able to control it the last thing he wanted to do was go home and put the lives of his friends in danger. Besides he had killed a man. The police would never let him get away with murder even if he was Ninjago's greatest protector.

“Please, Lloyd. Come home with us, Wu will help us figure all this out.”, Jay held a hand in his direction.

“Bu-but the man-”, he stuttered looking over to the corpse, where Kai was already standing removing the dagger and katana with slight disgust on his face.

The Fire Ninja who had apparently been eavesdropping turned to his little brother looking him right in the eyes. “They won't find out.”

He walked towards him, kneeling down next to him. “The police I mean. They won't find out it was you. I- We won't let that happen.”, Lloyd looked at him with shocked and wide eyes leading for Kai to sigh. “What are Ninja friends for if they don't help you get away with murder once, I guess.”

“No- We can't-”

“Yes, we can.”, Cole spoke out this time and Lloyd turned his head to his direction. “That wasn't you, Lloyd. Whatever it was it's terrifying but it wasn't-”, he took a deep breath. “It wasn't you.”, he saw Nya and Zane nod in the corner of his eye.

He started to cry again.

“I don't deserve you. None of you.”

This time it was Jay's turn to sigh and the elder picked him off of the ground.

“I'm sorry to break it to you, Lloyd, but we are exactly what you deserve.”
