As the night went by Willow stirred awake, she quickly remembered what happened last night and sat up, one of her legs were sprawled across her brothers’ body while Vinnys’ arm was sprawled against Shancais’ chest. Shancai just had his arms wrapped around the two in a comforting way.

“He’s still sleeping…that’s a first…” she chuckled to herself quietly as she looked at her brother. She turned her attention to the window and squinted her eyes as she was hit with a dull ray of sunshine. She quickly turned away and rubbed her eyes. Willow grabbed her phone and checked the time, “8:53…” she muttered before working up the energy to get up.

She made sure to be careful not to wake up the other two, as she made her way out of the blanket fort. She stood there for a moment wondering what to do before a devilish smirk appeared on her face as she ran like a gremlin to her room and gathered a bunch of things into her arms.

She rushed back to her brothers’ room and closed the door behind her. Willow threw the stuff she grabbed into the bed and picked something up…lipstick…she sat next to the two, moving Vinnys’ arm from Shancais’ chest. She did their makeup…being extra cautious on her brother due to his cautiousness.

As the Shancai began to stir awake, he attempted to sit up, but was weighed down by Vinnys’ leg. He looked around and noticed Willow awake on her phone, “Morning” the prince spoke to his sister.

“Morning sleepyhead” Willow replied, “You slept in, it’s 9:45” she added as she teased her brother.

“It is…?” Shancai looked surprised hearing that.

“Yep, no one else is awake though, other than mama though she’s busy with something” Willow replied, as she smiled at her brother.

Vinny began to stir awake, his eyes fluttering open as he stared at the blanket roof and blinked. “Morning…” he spoke as he continued to lay there.

“Morning, sleep well?” Willow asked, Vinny nodded.

“Yea….” He answered, “Sorry…” the cameraman spoke to Shancai as he moved his leg from his body, allowing the prince to sit up.

“All is well…it was fairly comfortab-“ Shancai cut himself off as he looked at Vinnys’ face, Willow however was biting her lip holding back a laugh.

“What…?” Vinny asked curiously, as he looked back at Shancai and his jaw dropped.

“Your face…” Vinny and Shancai spoke in unison, the prince immediately looked at Willow, who was snickering to herself. Vinny however grabbed his phone and went into the camera.

“Holy shit Willow…” Vinny laughed out as he saw his face, Shancai looked at Vinny, who turned the phone towards the prince allowing him to see his face.

Shancai took a deep breathe as he looked at his face, “You can’t deny it’s funny” Willow laughed out.

“It definitely is funny” Vinny confessed as he held back laughter.

“How much did you put on?” Shancai questioned as he touched his face, only to have some foundation pressed onto his hand.

“I have no idea! But you were sleeping so I did it” Willow admitted as she fell back onto the makeshift floor bed and laughed out, kicking her legs.

“Can we take it off?” Vinny questioned.

“Yep! I already took a photo of both of you” Willow teased, causing Shancai to sighed and Vinny to chuckle. “Off to my room!” She added as she stood up, the two men stood up and followed her out of the room.

“You both gotta admit that was a hell of a good sleep” Willow spoke.

“It was unusually comfortable…” Shancai confessed.

“Definitely, it was so comfy an-“ Vinny was cut off.

“What the fuck?!” It was Nya who was bursting in laughter as she saw Shancais’ and Vinnys’ face.

“I-I can explain?” The cameraman spoke awkwardly, Shancai however immediately went into Willows’ room and dragged Vinny in.

“I have pictures! I’ll show you later!” Willow called out to Nya, who gave her an approving nod. The nature elemental went into her bedroom and laughed seeing her brother, he was clearly embarrassed by this.

“Did you use all that?” Vinny questioned, as he noticed a bunch of makeup products scattered on her bed.

“Obviously” she spoke as she playfully rolled her eyes and pushed the two into the bathroom and handed them a bottle. “Wash that on your face, scrub it in like really really well” she added.

Shanghai and Vinny nodded as they turned on the water, wet their faces and began using whatever cleanser they were given. “Never do this again…” Shancai sighed.

“Normally I would agree, but it’s fucking hilarious waking up and seeing my face covered in makeup” Vinny spoke.

“See? Someone gets me” Willow spoke as she wrapped her arm around Vinnys’ neck.

“Yes yes…” Shancai rolled his eyes, “We’re all getting dressed…correct?” He added, receiving nods from the other two.

“Then we’re eating, I’m starved!” Willow spoke, “Then I have pictures I need to show Nya” She teased the two.

“She’s never gonna let me live that down” Vinny whined, as he dried his face with a towel he was given by Willow.

“Neither will I!” The nature elemental teased, as she watched the two begin to leave her room, to change their clothes.

Shancai sighed as she closed the door, “She’s nice” Vinny spoke to him.

“Yea…” the prince admitted, “She is, isn’t she…?” He added.

“You two balance each other perfectly…” Vinny replied, receiving a nod from Shancai. “See you for now…” he added as he went into his room, the prince just waved goodbye and went into his room.

Vinny closed his door and stared at the closest, there was a bunch of clothes. The kingdom must’ve had guests a lot, he didn’t really know what to wear, everything was so modest. Maybe the others were wearing clothes that modest? He saw Nya wearing something definitely from here.

He eventually settled on something, it wasn’t too complicated, but it was blue, his favourite colour. And to say it wasn’t comfy would be a lie. All the clothes were so soft and flowey. Vinny was happy when he realised it had pockets and he shoved the dagger into there, then he put his shoes on.

He looked in a mirror and sighed in relief, he was looking so much better. He liked it here…

Vinny took a sip of water from his water bottle which was given by Shancai the previous night. He eventually left his room and saw Willow and Shancai leaning against the wall. Shancai was wearing his armour and his hair in that singular bubble braid while Willow was a shirt with shorts and her hair in a loose braided bun. It was a clear contrast between them all.

“Looking good” Willow spoke in a singsongy tone as she ruffled Vinnys’ hair.

“So are you both” Vinny replied as he laughed and tried fixing his hair.

“I suppose your friends are waiting for us” Shancai spoke to Vinny.

“Would be a shame to keep them waiting” Willow teased.

“I know…” Vinny sighed, he wondered how Garmadon was doing at the moment.

“Oh right! Forgot to tell you, I saw mum talking to your lover yesterday afternoon, after she spoke to you” Willow spoke, as they all began walking.

“T-they were? Did you hear anything?” Vinny questioned, he desperately wanted answers.

“Not really, though I heard love in their conversation” Willow smirked as she nudged Vinny, causing him to blush.

“That’s…sweet?” Shancai spoke awkwardly, causing Willow to laugh.

“What’s funny?” Vinny questioned.

“Sunshine here doesn’t know anything about relationships, he knows basic stuff, but can’t take hints!” Willow teased her brother, “He’s never dated someone, hell he’s never kissed someone!” She continued to tease as she poked her brother.

“Seriously?” Vinny asked, Shancai reluctantly nodded, “How!? Everyone should be fawning over you!” He added, the prince looked a little surprised.

“That’s what I tell him” Willow said, “It’s so painfully obvious when someone flirts with him, he’s smart, but not relationship smart” she added, a hint of sympathy in her voice.

“Enough you two…” Shancai sighed as he rubbed his temple and walked ahead.

“Hey! Slow down!” Vinny called out as he caught up with him, followed by Willow.

They continued to walk down hallways before entering what was most definitely a dining room. Vinny smiled to himself as he saw his friends all sitting there. Most waved, other than Garmadon who just gave him a nod of notice.

The three sat down, Vinny next to Lloyd on one side and Shancai on the other, while Willow was next to Shancai.

“Who cut your hair?” Kai spoke up to Vinny.

“Is it that obvious?” Vinny chuckled, quite literally everyone nodded, “He did” he added as he pointed to Shancai.

“Well you look so much better than recently” Lloyd spoke, Nya however was smirking at Willow who was signalling for her to come over. The water ninja sat next to Willow and laughed out as she saw a photo of Vinny and Shancai, sleeping with makeup on.

“What’s up?” Cole questioned, Vinny and Shancai stared at the table with pure embarrassment as Willow held up here phone. Everyone burst out laughing, hell even Zane and Pixal let out a small snicker.

“That was this morning?” Lloyd asked, receiving a nod from Willow. Garmadons’ expression softened as he saw the picture, it was weird…Vinny was so close to Shancai…he felt weird…he didn’t like it…Wu seemed to have noticed his brothers’ distress.

“Were you all sleeping in the same room?” Wu spoke, but silently speaking on his brothers’ behalf.

“Yea, we were all awake in like the middle of the night, and I suggested we have a sleepover! So we did!” Willow answered, Garmadon felt a little relived hearing that…Wu let out a sigh of relief noticing his brother.

“Any plans for today?” Nya asked.

“Might show you all around the kingdom” Willow suggested, “Though maybe you can spar with my brother? I’m curious about your powers, I haven’t really met another elemental” Willow spoke, it was partially a lie with Enji in the question.

“I don’t see why not” Wu spoke.

“Sounds like a plan” Vinny spoke up, receiving nods from the others.

(Just so everyone knows, Willow is dark-skinned and has white hair like her mother, while Deity is extremely pale and has white hair as well, Shancai is a mix of both, his vitiligo is dark-skinned and pale-skinned with black hair)

(I suggest you check out parts 1-63 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)

(With Garmadon and the others)

They all just followed Willow, she occasionally brought down tree branches and ate fruit from them. Her was a white and silver like colour with black tips.

“The Ivory Kingdom has never been mentioned in any of my scrolls, it sounds a lot like Shintaro” Wu spoke, as he broke the deafening silence.

“Shintaro? I think I’ve heard that before…but the Ivory Kingdom’s is in it:s own secluded area, my mum’s said it’s been a secret place for years” Willow replied as she looked back at them.

“Your mother…she sounds like an important woman, and you said she could get us back, does she possess of any powers?” Garmadon questioned, he did seem quite curious about this place.

“She’s amazing! Power wise she does magic, and it’s where me and my brother got our eyes and the mark” Willow replied happily, she seemed to love her mother a lot.

“Magic? Dark magic?” Zane questioned.

“No silly! Normal magic, she doesn’t do anything bad unless it’s for a good reason” Willow laughed.

“What’s her and your brother’s name?” Pixal questioned.

“My brother’s Shancai while my mum is Deity” The nature elemental replied as they all continued walking.

Wu and Garmadon were exchanging thoughts through their expressions, still silently talking about the magic part.

A shiver ran down their back as they passed a darker area of the forest…vines blocking the entrance…dead shrubs and trees while a repulsive smell caused slight nausea. It was like night and day between the sides…the lush and lively side compared to the dark, and rotten side.

“What’s…there?” Wu hesitantly asked as he pointed to the area, Willow’s expression hardened as she stopped walking and stared into the dark side. Vines began to cover more of the entrance as she let out a shaky breathe. The change in her behaviour created uneasiness in the others.

“That…is where my enemy lives…” Willow eventually replied, her lively and friendly expression gone replaced with a cold, and fearful expression.

“Your enemy? What’s this enemy like?” Garmadon questioned.

“A snake…part anacondrai and hypnobrai…but she’s blind so can’t really use hypnotism” Willow confessed, her voice feigned with malice and annoyance for this snake.

The rest of the group looked surprised, anacondrai and hypnobrai…that’s a dangerous combo…”This snake…is there anything else important about her?” Zane spoke.

“She has the voice of a siren…listening to it is basically just as worse as a hypnobrai…” She grumbled, “Blind as a bat…her name’s Rushifa…”

“She sounds…interesting…” Pixal spoke.

“But don’t worry! All you have to do is stay out of that area and cover your ears if you here singing…she will eat you” Willow spoke a little awkwardly.

“She doesn’t come out from there?” Wu questioned.

“Not really…she stays in the forest that’s for sure, but there’s idiots so she gets a free meal…” Willow spoke before she began walking again, expecting the others to follow. The others did follow and quite quickly as well.

“I don’t know how I feel about this place…” Garmadon whispered to Wu.

“Me neither…on one hand it seems nice and then there’s places like that…” Wu responded.

“Let’s just hope the others landed somewhere safer than us…” the oni sighed as he thought about Vinny.

“Agreed…I’m sure Vinny’s safe, the others have taken quite a liking to him” Wu spoke in an attempt to comfort his brother. It was true though, the ninja really did like Vinny, who could blame them?

(With Vinny and the rest of the Ninja)

As Vinny trudged next to Shancai, occasionally looking back at the others, who were staring at him worriedly wanting to pull him away from the man, but didn’t. Shancai seemed like a strong person, one that they didn’t know the full potential of yet.

“I’ll have a look at your arm at the palace” Shancai spoke to Vinny, there was no emotion in it, he seemed good at remaining stoic. The cameraman just nodded, he seemed a little relieved to have his arm taken care of.

“Lloyd tell me you have a bad feeling about this guy…because if you had a bad feeling about Vania and not him then there’s something up with you” Cole shouted in a whispered.

“Geez okay, I really don’t like him…” Lloyd confessed quietly.

“He scares me…” Jay whispered.

“He looks…very unique…in a good way” Nya spoke, “But what does he want with Vinny?” She added.

“How are we meant to know? Vinny happens to have the worst luck ever…” Kai sighed, looking at the cameraman with sympathy.

“Which is sad cause he’s a great guy…” Cole chimed in, receiving nods from the others.

They continued walking down a path before entering two large gates…made out of an interesting stone. “Woah…” Vinny spoke quietly as he stared at the gates that towered over them.

A man looked over the gates, “You’re back early Shancai!” The man spoke from above as the gates began to open.

“There’s some people that need to see my mother” Shancai plainly replied as he walked through the gates followed by the others.

“Must be important if you decided to accompany them” Another man spoke from above the gates as well, Shancai just nodded before he continued walking.

They walked through an area which seemed to be the slums, young kids and elderly people waved towards Shancai, and he gave them a warm smile and nod, the only emotion he seemed to show so far.

“So he can show emotion…” Jay muttered, receiving a gentle hit on the head from Nya.

Vinny seemed surprised as they walked through most likely the markets, stalls upon stalls stood next to each other as people held out their merchandise while buyers attempted to bargain with the owners.

Everyone seemed to have some jewels with them, whether it be diamonds, emeralds, sapphires or rubies, everyone in the market seemed to have one…though there was something that was used to buy merchandise…is was a red gem…not quite a ruby. But it was a currency, and it seemed familiar reminding Vinny of the gems on Shancais’ spear.

The cameraman was a bit surprised as he bumped into Shancai’s arm which was in front of him, stopping him from walking. Vinny was going to question him before he saw a bunch of kids run by with what seemed to be a new kite.

“This place is amazing…” Cole spoke happily as he laid his eyes on a food stall, only then did he realise how fucking hungry he was, so did the others. Especially Vinny, he regretted skipping breakfast this morning.

“Once we get to the palace and inform my mother of your predicament, I’ll have some food prepared” Shancai spoke as he continued walking.

“A-are you sure? We couldn’t possibly, it’s nice enough you’re helping us” Lloyd spoke, as Cole, Jay and Kai glared at him, they really didn’t want Lloyd ruin their chances of food.

“It isn’t necessarily a problem” Shancai spoke, “I am unaware if my mother can even help you get back, though the palace would be open for you all to rest” he added.

“T-thanks…” They all spoke.

Shancai reached a palace…and hell was it pretty…large black tinted windows occasionally placed, multiple guards protecting the place and as they entered long hallways, with white and red curtains draped across the windows while the same colour palette for the carpets. Rooms upon rooms, as what seemed like servants chattered happily as they worked.

“This place is huge…” Kai spoke in amazement, his voice echoing in the halls.

Vinny was just as amazed and occasionally looked up at Shancai, he would sometimes receive a nod of acknowledgment before his eyes flicked back down to Vinnys’ arm.

“Does it hurt?” Shancai questioned Vinny as they walked.

“A little…only when I move it, I can’t really straighten it without pain…” The cameraman responded.

“Most likely a fracture then, keep it still just incase, if it snaps then it’ll be much worse” Shancai responded, receiving a nod from Vinny.

As they entered a room…a woman…sitting on the ground…scrolls thrown across the floor as she read over things. She was quite beautiful…floor long white hair that flowed down before fading away at the ends, black scleras and silver irises just like her son, she had the Yang sign on her right cheek, while she worse a robe with clouds and stars on the end of it as her hair covered her body.

“Mother…”Shancai spoke softly, affection and worry tainting his voice as he bowed down.

Enji exited the mirror because that has become a signature move for him. "W-what do you want...?" Vinny stuttered out as he rubbed tears from his eyes. "I...I didn't tell him.." He added as he stood up. "Well...you almost did~! But no worries, you're practically destroying yourself~!' Enji responded as he sat on the dresser. The cameraman heard that and tensed he was going to say something then stopped, he knew that black haired menace had a point.

Enji smirked realising Vinny knew he was right, "You know it's true too~!" He chuckled out before pulling out the blade from last night. The cameraman tensed seeing the blade and backed away. "Geez I'm not gonna hurt you wasn't supposed to yesterday and I don't want to be scolded at" Enji said noticing how tense Vinny was. "Y-you weren't supposed to? W-who even is telling you what to do? I mean I know it's probably that cape guy but what is his name?!" The cameraman asked.

"Honestly I think I should tell you~! His name is Rida~! Tall guy really shady, dark grey hair scars on his face" Enji responded as he began describing this guy. "Rida...? W-wait why are you t-telling me this so easily?!" Vinny asked thinking there was some catch or problem to this. The black haired menace smirked, "Like I said...you're destroying yourself, you're not telling anyone about me, and this is all so much fun~!" Enji laughed out menacingly as he twirled the blade around.

"Plus...you're way to valuable to just kill and Rida is sorta allowing me to mess with you~!" Enji added as he stood up, Vinny looked at him before sighing and laying on the bed, he wasn't in the mood for his bullshit today. "Geez what's up with you? You're so miserable today! That's no fun!" Enji whined out as he looked down at Vinny. "You know what's wrong with me dickhead!" Vinny responded as he held up the middle finger.

"Oh right, I do! You're running on 2 hours of sleep, was tormented last night and got into a fight with your fucking boyfriend~!" the black haired menace laughed out, "Fucking pathetic~!" He added as he rubbed a tear from his eye from laughing so much. "And you have such an attitude today~" he added as he sat on the bed. "C'mon! You're no fun to be around when you're tired~!" He whined out when he heard Vinny groan in annoyance.

"You're no fun to be around at all..." The cameraman responded. Enji mumbled something before grabbing Vinny and throwing him off the bed. "The fuck was that for!?" The cameraman hissed in annoyance, The black haired menace held the blade tightly and used his foot to push Vinny back down when he tried to get up. "If you're gonna be a moody bitch today...I think I'll find it better if you're screaming in pain instead~" Enji hissed as he pushed his foot harder against Vinnys' chest.

Vinny tensed and tried pushing Enjis' foot off him but failed miserably only making Enji pushed down harder to the point it hurt and began tracing the blade against Vinnys' neck. "Maybe I should shut you up..." The black haired menace whispered as he pressed the blade softly against the cameramans' neck. Vinny tensed and flinched slightly, this only empowered Enji to continue and pressed the knife harder against his neck. Vinny winced in pain and just as Enji was going to press the knife harder, " Enji..." A voice said, which instantly caused the black haired menace to stop and move away from Vinny.

"Heyyyy Rida...didn't know you were coming here!" Enji awkwardly said as he snapped the blade out of existence. Vinny looked at the figure apparently Rida, he had a distorted voice and looked towards Vinny, wearing the 'bird' mask which its eyes flashed orange.

(I suggest you check out parts 1-89 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)

Vinnys’ eyes widened as he saw Rida, he hadn’t expected this and reluctantly let go. He wasn’t aware of what Rida was capable of and didn’t want to know either and he also didn’t trust him. “Why so tense?” Rida spoke, the cameraman could practically feel the smile forming behind his mask.

“No reason…” Vinny muttered as he put the dagger back in his pocket and stared at Ridas’ now, slightly cut arm. He turned around, facing his back to the taller man.

“Now now then, that’s not how you treat friends” Rida chuckled as he took off his Phoenix mask and placed it to the side.

“We’re not friends…” the cameraman’ grumbled as he sat on his bed and avoided staring at Ridas’ face, he was intimidating. Those bright orange eyes would burn holes into Vinnys’ head.

“We’re not?” Rida asked with feigned curiosity as he turned his head to the side. “I heard about your little run in with Rushifa, fun was it?” He chuckled, the cameraman felt sick at the thought.

“Why are you here?” Vinny suddenly asked, he was curious. Rida was an enemy of the kingdom and a pretty well known one so he definitely wasn’t up to any good. “Wasn’t sending Enji here enough?”

“I wish it was” Rida groaned as he rubbed his temples, “However he won’t tell me anything, in hopes of protecting the prince…quite pathetic if you ask me, but he does most of what I tell him” he confessed with a smile.

“So Enji really does care about Shanni? Or Rida’s fucking with me…” Vinny thought to himself.

“Now then, how have you been?” Rida questioned as he began looking around the room.

“Fine I guess…” The cameraman muttered, he didn’t want to talk to him, he didn’t trust him at all. “And answer me, why are you here?” He repeated in a more assertive tone.

“Trying to control the situation doesn’t suit you” Rida spoke as he touched the bandage on Vinnys’ arm from the day before. “Who did this?”

“You’re smart, figure it out yourself” the cameraman hissed as he pulled his arm away, Enji definitely kept secrets.

“Ah…so he came here yesterday as well?” Rida chuckled to himself.

“Answer me now” Vinny repeated for the third time, “You shouldn’t even be here, you’re not allowed in the kingdom, you’re sure as hell lucky I haven’t ran out” he added as he began fidgeting with the dagger.

“Just taking a look and making sure everything’s in check” Rida answered as he pressed his finger against the cameramans’ cheek, digging his nail in.

“The other day…when you said Enji was getting something that was rightfully yours, it was that chest right?” Vinny asked as he harshly grabbed Ridas’ wrist and pulled it away from his face.

“Enji was right…you have become more short-tempered” Rida chuckled, the cameraman looked at him in annoyance still waiting for an answer. “Yes yes, it was that chest” Rida sighed out as he rolled his eyes.

“Are you even royalty?” Vinny questioned as he cocked his head.

“Wouldn’t you like to know” Rida teased as he pulled his wrist back, “I take it that insufferable woman told you about this?” He hissed, clearly annoyed when talking about what was most definitely Deify. It reminded the cameraman of how Rushifa spoke of Willow.

“Yes she did and she’s not insufferable” Vinny scowled at him, he didn’t like someone badmouthing Deity, she was sweet.

“She’s trapped you in her lies as well?” Rida questioned, laughter threatening to exit his mouth.

“Lies?” The cameraman asked, he knew Deity had some secrets, but she definitely didn’t hide anything that would be too serious. He couldn’t blame her for having her own secrets.

“Oh you silly silly person” Rida spoke with feigned empathy as he bent over to Vinnys’ height and cupped his cheek. “You couldn’t possibly trust this kingdom more than me?”

“I can and I will” the cameraman answered with a hiss, “Since you and Enji showed up my life has been hell!” He hissed as he looked up a Rida, before going quiet as he shivered as if a gust of wind had brushed over him. His eyes had gone dark…with just bright orange eyes no emotion to them.

Vinny had only seen Deity, Shancai and Willow with those eyes, how then? How did Rida have them? And how did he hide them? Maybe he was being delusional maybe Rida was using some magic to fuck with him. The cameraman wanted to say something, but he felt his words get stuck in his throat.

“You have grown quite a tongue” Rida eventually chuckled out, breaking the silence and only seeming to make it more tense. “I suggest you distance yourself from here, would be a shame if something were to happen to this place…”

Vinny didn’t know what to do or say, instead he stared at the ground. He wanted to cry. He didn’t know why. He just always had pent up emotions now, either anger or sadness. “Now now then, tears don’t suit that face of yours” Rida spoke clearly mocking him as he lifted his chin up.

“What the hell do you actually fucking want from me?” The cameraman hissed as his gaze darkened and he gripped Ridas’ hand tightly, catching him off guard.

“You’ll know in due to time” Rida replied as he tried pulling his hand back, only to have Vinny tighten his grip. “Let go” he ordered.

“I want a fucking answer and I want it now” The cameraman threatened.

“Is that a threat?” Rida spoke, as a sadistic smile formed on his face. He was intrigued by this.

“It’s whatever you think it is asshole” Vinny responded as he gripped the dagger with his free hand.

“I don’t respond to threats well, there’s a reason that snake is blind” Rida confessed as he used his free hand to grip the cameramans’ wrist.

“Maybe she’s the reason you’re fucking scarred up eh?” Vinny mocked as his pupils constricted. Saying that seemed to get a rise out of Rida as anger flashed in his eyes before dying down.

“Perhaps I should take you down there? First hand experience as one would say?” Rida replied causing the cameraman to take a shaky breath. “Nothing else to say?” He asked smugly.

“I should fucking slit your tongue, you’re just as much as a snake as he-“ Vinny was just off by being thrown across the room. “F-fuck…” he groaned as he rubbed his back that hit the ground harshly.

“Would you like to repeat that please?” Rida hissed, “The only reason she didn’t tear you limb by limb was, because of me…perhaps I should let her eat you?” He asked.

“Better than seeing your fucking face!” The cameraman scowled back, before groaning as he felt hands wrap around his throat.

“Perhaps I should’ve let Enji kill you, no?” Rida chuckled out though clearly forced. “Or maybe I should let him kill your friends with you watching?”

Vinny growled hearing this before knocking Rida off of him, which took a lot of effort, he’s tall and much stronger. The cameraman grabbed the dagger which was sprawled across the floor and before he could think otherwise he drove the dagger into Ridas’ shoulder, earning a pain cry.

“Why don’t I fucking kill you?” The cameraman threatened as he pulled the dagger out and held it against Ridas’ neck.

“You wouldn’t” Rida painfully chuckled, as blood gushed from his arm.

“How would you know?” Vinny hissed as he threatened to press the dagger in.

“You’re too pathetic, imagine what your friends would say!” Rida answered, “I haven’t done anything too bad so you’re practically killing a man for more than his crime, for yourself!” He cackled out.

The cameramans’ eyes widened as he began to think what the others would say. Rida was right…this was wrong, he shouldn’t do this. But he deserved right? While Vinny was distracted by his thoughts Rida knocked him off of him and onto the ground.

“Try not to lose your sanity, this is beginning to get fun” Rida chuckled as he stood up, ignoring his arm which was profusely bleeding as he grabbed his Phoenix mask and put it on.

“Go fuck yourself” Vinny hissed, it was the first thing and the only thing he could say at the moment. His hands were covered in blood as he wiped his face accidentally rubbing it on his face.

“Also…I haven’t done anything bad yet, that is” Rida chuckled before another gush of wind brushed over Vinny as he shut his eyes before opening them and realising Rida was gone…The cameraman sat on the ground, not knowing what to do, or well…he couldn’t really move, his body felt numb.

“I’m really fucking crazy” Vinny eventually laughed to himself as he held the dagger tightly before wiping the blood off with his hand. Was all this worth it? He should just tell everyone and be done with it. “I’m not fucking short-tempered…” he grumbled to himself, he didn’t want to believe it, but he knew he’s slowly became more agitated.

The cameraman was cut off by a knock on the door. “Who is it?!” Vinny shouted out, presuming it was Shancai.

“Me” just as the cameraman expected it was the prince, Vinny sat there for a moment, he was covered in a blood and shirtless, but he couldn’t careless.

“Come in! Door should be unlocked” The cameraman called out, he ad forgotten to lock the door due to the events from before. The door opened with a creek as Vinny saw the prince stand there for a moment after he turned on the lights, he looked worried and was holding some clothes, clearly this old ones.

“What happened?” Shancai immediately asked as he put the clothes on the bed and rushed to crouch down next to the cameraman. “Are you hurt? Is it from your shoulder?”

“I’m fine, don’t worry” Vinny chuckled out, “Not my blood”

“That does not lessen my concern” Shancai spoke as he was about to grab the cameramans’ bloody hand.

“Don’t get yourself dirty, you just showered” Vinny spoke as he pulled his arm away.

“Then tell me what happened” the prince repeated.

“Rida came…he was a bit annoying and I may have well…sort of stabbed his shoulder?” The cameraman nervously confessed, causing Shancai to stare at him in surprise.

“Rida was here? What did he want? Are you sure he didn’t hurt you?” The prince questioned once more.

“He just was here like how Enji was…to be an ass” Vinny sighed out, “I sort of threatened him then he brought up he’s the reason Rushifa’s blind so then I asked him if she’s the reason he’s scarred just to mess with him then he threw me on the ground” the cameraman sighed out.

“Oh…oh wow…” Shancai spoke as he looked at Vinny who was chuckling softly. “You should go shower before someone sees you like this…”

“Yea…I was gonna shower, but then he came” The cameraman sighed as he stood up as put the dagger back in the sheath.

“I have to go though…I can get someone to clean your room though”the prince confessed.

“It’s fine, I’ll be with Deity” Vinny answered as he stretched. “And I guess someone cleaning the floor would be nice…I doubt I’ll be able to clean blood properly

“I’ll see you when I get back and I’ll find someone to clean this” Shancai sighed as he stood up, the cameraman nodded as he watched him leave, closing the door. Vinny locked the door and sighed, his life was fucked.

He went into the bathroom and grimaced as he looked at the mirror. His face was body was covered in blood. Who knew stabbing someones’ shoulder this much caused this? Vinny emptied his pockets and swore to himself as he had forgotten he had that photo he found when he was checking that room with Shancai.

As much as he wanted to inspect the photo now, his hands were covered in blood and he didn’t want to ruin it. So he simply put it to the side and glanced at it quickly. Vinnys’ eyes widened.

There were two kids in the photo, one looked like Shancai, but the other wasn’t recognisable, he had short hair, a large smile with a missing tooth as his hand was swung over who Vinny presumed as Shancai.

The cameraman took a deep breath, he can think of this later right now he had to shower. Vinny took off his pants, he had already taken off his shirt before. He entered the shower and turned on the water letting out a sigh of relief as the blood dripped down his body.

Vinny splashed his face with water, he couldn’t imagine how the others would react if they saw him covered in blood like this. And honestly he hated the way it felt on him. It was a quick shower nothing out of the ordinary other than a bunch of scrubbing.

Once he was done he wrapped a towel around his waist and went back into the bedroom, careful to not step on the blood as he began getting dressed. He had decided on wearing one of those old pants Shancai gave him, they were awfully comfy. He also just threw on some random shirt before he rubbed his hair with the towel.

After he finished with that he went back into the bathroom and began cleaning off the bloody dagger and cleaning the floor, it was best to clean as much as he could he didn’t want to annoy the person cleaning the bedroom. Vinny wiped the floor in the bathroom before sighed as he stared at the ground in the bedroom.

As much as he wanted to clean it he was afraid of ruining something so he grabbed the photo from the bathroom and just sat on the bed. The cameraman began to observe the photo, he wanted to know who the other kid in the photo was. Maybe it was Enji? Shancai and Enji used to be friends before…

They looked so…happy together. Shancai had a soft smile on his face while Enji had their cheeks pressed against each other. “What happened…?” Vinny spoke to himself out loud. Maybe he can ask Deity later, for now he was snapped out of his thoughts by a knock on the door. So he quickly got up and opened the door.

A woman stood there, a soft smile on her face with a mop and other. She had a blue and brown eye, with light skin and black hair. “You’re the one with the blood right?” The woman asked softly.

“Uh r-right” Vinny spoke awkwardly, it was a bit embarrassing as he stepped the the side and let her in, she didn’t seem fazed by the blood. “Sorry for the mess…” he apologised as he sat on the bed.

“It’s no issue, the prince is no different from this” she chuckled in response.

“He is?” The cameraman asked.

“Yep, I don’t mind it” she answered.

“Right…” Vinny spoke, there was this awkward silence, they both clearly didn’t like conversations and didn’t want to introduce themselves.

“You can leave if you want” She spoke up, “I enjoy being alone”

“A-are you sure? I feel bad about the mess…” Vinny answered back.

“I’m sure” she chuckled, “You even sound like the prince, don’t worry” she comforted him.

“A-alright” the cameraman sighed, “I’ll be with Deity if you need me just come get me” he reluctantly spoke, as he shoved the dagger and photo in his pocket, she nodded and watched him leave.

Vinny felt a ton of relief now he wasn’t in the room, so he decided to make his way to Deity, he had questions…

Overwhelmed (Vinny x Garmadon)part 40

(I suggest you check out parts 1-39 if you haven't already) (UIHDHJKSKJ PART 40 ALREADY!!!!!!!!!)

"I instructed you to go keep an eye on him...not to harm him again..." Rida spoke out, his voice sounded distorted and he was speaking fairly calm. "S-sorry..." Enji replied as he stood up straight, Rida looked down at Vinny who was on the floor slowly backing away from the two. The masked figure let out a sigh clearly noticing Vinnys' lack of sleep and puffy eyes from crying. "Don't do it again...unless I tell you..." Rida said as he looked back at Enji who nodded in response. Vinny looked up at Rida and holy shit was he tall he was like Garmadon, but just a bit shorter.

"What the fuck, what the fuck, what the fuck...!" Vinny screamed internally as he brought his knees to his chest. "Enji give me the blade..." Rida instructed which the black haired menace obeyed instantly giving him the blade he was harming Vinny with. Rida took the blade and crouched down in front of the shaken cameraman who tried to squirm away. "I won't harm you..." The masked figure spoke, his voice was oddly calming yet....unnerving...

Vinny was still tense but stopped trying to get away, "What do you two want with me...?" he asked his voice breaking slightly as he held back tears, he's had so much things happen in the span of less than a week he was tired and sick of this. "Nothing too much....but...you won't be telling us anything about it anytime soon..." Rida replied calmly as he placed the blade down in front of Vinny, that was the first time he had a clear view of the blade, it was made with a black crystal which had black spots to it through it and the handle was wrapped in what looked like leather. "It's quite a beautiful dagger, isn't it?" Rida asked breaking the silence.

Vinny hesitantly nodded, he didn't like how friendly Rida was being, it was unnerving and gave Vinny mixed feelings about how to feel about the guy. "It's made out of red obsidian" The masked figure spoke out as he reached out for Vinnys' hand. The cameraman flinched away when Rida attempted to grab his hand which was wrapped in a bandage, it was weird enough he just met the guy but the bird mask was quite intimidating.

Rida could tell Vinny was nervous and let out a sigh before taking off the mask. Enji was right about him having his face covered in scars, his hair was dark grey though what caught Vinnys' attention the most was his eyes, he had dark orange eyes. "My mask does tend to intimidate people...though so does my appearance" Rida spoke out. The cameraman looked at him before looking at the bird mask, "W-what bird is that?" he asked curiously, "Ah, it's a phoenix" The orange eyed figure spoke.

Enji was looking down at the two annoyed at the interaction, but he trusted Rida. Rida signalled for Vinny to give him his hand, the cameraman hesitated for a moment before giving it to him. The orange eyed figure picked up the blade and Vinny instantly froze, he was scared to move his hand knowing very well the two of them could kill him. Rida then carefully cut off the bandages and inspected the wounds, The orange eyed figure signalled for Enji to come sit next to him, he was hesitant but sat down, this made Vinny jump slightly he was much more scared of Enji at the moment.

"Fear and pain....are both powerful things...." Rida spoke out as he began cleaning the wound on the cameramans' hand. Enji and Vinny looked at him paying close attention, "Us humans tend to...use it against others....everyone fears something...anyone who says they don't is a fool and liar..." He continued, Vinny was really curious, he knew there was some truth behind those words. "People use pain...to force people into obeying, otherwise.....they'll get hurt" Rida added before squeezing Vinnys' hand tightly as he said the last part, this hurt Vinny and caused him to attempt to jerk his hand away.

"Tell someone what you fear....and it will be used against you and you will become nothing but a weapon and object to them" the orange eye figure added as he grabbed Vinnys' hand and began wrapping it with bandages. "We all fear something...so tell me...what do you fear?" Rida asked as his eyes glowed slightly. Vinny was uneasy, he didn't to answer him but he felt like he had to. "I can tell you are uneasy, I'll go first then you" Rida spoke out, Vinny hesitantly nodded.

"I fear...the ocean, being forgotten and loud noises..." Rida spoke calmly before looking over to Enji who seemed very curious as to why Rida was saying all this, Vinny was really curious about all this, he expected her to have fears but he didn't expect him to tell him. "Your turn..." Rida said calmly to Vinny, "I-I fear being trapped, being...left alone, being useless, h-hurting the one I l-love...l-losing the ones I l-love..." Vinnys' voiced broke slightly as he began thinking about Garmadon and how much he upset him.

Rida looked at him then at Enji, "You can go now..." Rida whispered to Enji who listened happily and left instantly. "Now then...that fight you got into with him was quite upsetting?" The orange eyed figure asked as he gently lifted up Vinnys' chin. The cameraman nodded, "I-I didn't mean t-to upset him, Enji s-said I can't tell anyone!" Vinny said as tears welled in his eyes. Rida nodded, "No one ever means to hurt the ones they love....and certainly not you, right?" Rida asked, Vinny nodded.

"Good...avoid them all..." Rida simply said, "W-what?" Vinny replied not knowing what he meant, "You need some space to breathe and think you also need to get some sleep because running on two hours of sleep isn't easy is it?" Rida responded quickly, "I-I....guess you're r-right..." Vinny responded, "Say...you have to go for work then just do what you want for the day" Rida added earning another nod from Vinny, "You both need some space from each other" The orange eyed figure spoke.

"Y-yea...you're right..." The cameraman responded as he looked at the ground, "Now then...this is yours then..." Rida said as he put the dagger in Vinnys' hand and closed it. "I'll see you some other time..." Rida said as he put the phoenix mask back on, "O-ok..." Vinny responded, he didn't know why but he trusted Rida so much he was much more tame and sane than Enji, why was Enji so obedient to him then. Rida nodded before standing up and disappeared into thin air.

Vinny looked at the blade and clenched it tightly, "O-okay...I do need some space from him...I'm just tired...never meant to upset him..." Vinny said to himself as he began thinking about Garmadon.

Overwhelmed(Vinny x Garmadon)Part 59

(I suggest you check out parts 1-58 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised: Criolla_Star)

(SOMEONE’S ON A ROLLLLL!!! Second chapter today btw, if you haven’t seen it I uploaded chapter 58 as well)

“Hey…what’s up?” Vinny asked awkwardly as he looked at Garmadon, he really hoped he wasn’t spotted by anyone.

“I heard someone up…wanted to see if it was you…” Garmadon replied as his eyes looked at Vinny, seemingly trying to find anything suspicious.

“Hmm? I just woke up” The cameraman lied as he turned his head sideways faking a confused expression. “You didn’t have to get up to check on me…”

“I heard a bang too…just wanted to make sure you’re here…” The oni replied, slight suspicion tainting with his voice, as he reached he hand and caressed Vinnys’ cheek.

“No…I’ve been sleeping the whole time” the cameraman replied as he instinctively leaned into Garmadons’ touch. Just, because they had a fight didn’t mean they still couldn’t show affection to each other. They loved each other after all…

“Did I wake you up?” The oni asked, guilt tainting with his voice.

“Yea…” Vinny replied as he stared at the other, noticing the guilt, “But it’s no problem! I’m a little hungry” he added, he’d already upset Garmadon more than enough.

Vinny came out of the room and closed the door, “I’m gonna find something to eat” he spoke, the oni just nodded in response.

“Do you…do you want me make you something?” Vinny questioned, Garmadon just shook his head in response, he wasn’t hungry.

The cameraman just nodded and took a deep breathe before walking to the kitchen, Garmadon didn’t follow thankfully, he watched Vinnys’ figure slowly disappear into the hallway.

The cameraman made it to the kitchen and let out a sigh of relief before realising that the kettle was on, someone else was awake, probably Lloyd from before.

Vinny ignored the kettle and made a simple sandwich, nothing too special, he sat at the table and ate in silence, his eyes landing on a stab in the table, he cringed from the memory of him stabbing the table.

As he continued to eat in silence as teacup was put in front of him as Wu sat down next to him. “Bit early to be up?” Wu asked Vinny, in a soft tone drinking from his own teacup.

“Could say the same for you…” the cameraman replied as he gave Wu a grateful nod for the tea.

“What woke you?” Wu asked as he looked at the stab in the table before ignoring it,

“Garmadon heard something and thought it was me…he came and checked on me…” Vinny replied, guilt beginning to creep up his back for worrying the oni.

“Ah…did he go back to bed?” Wu questioned once more.

“I think…I asked if he was hungry and he wasn’t so I just came here…” Vinny replied as he continued to munch on his sandwich.

“Is something on your mind?” Wu spoke.

“Something on m- N-no…I’m fine…” Vinny replied, it was an obvious lie and Wu wasn’t buying it.

“Has things gotten worse between you and my brother?” Wu questioned, Vinny paused before sighing and shaking his head.

“I don’t think so…last night he asked me a couple questions…just making sure I was taking care of myself” the cameraman responded as he rested his face on one hand and drank tea.

The tea was oddly calming, it was warm and comforting and the aroma was amazing, it was chamomile tea…Vinny was sure if it, he drank it a lot when he would have restless nights back at the apartment, mostly before Garmadon came along.

“That’s nice of him” Wu spoke, he made sure not to cross the imaginary border, he didn’t want to stress Vinny.

“Yea…it is…” the cameraman responded softly, not realising that the bandages on his hand was beginning to fall off.

“Were those stitches from the razor cut?” Wu questioned, noticing the stitches through the bandages, Vinny just nodded plainly. He had a feeling if he said anything, Wu would be able to ask more questions.

“I’ll give you some alone time now…if you want to talk you know where to find me” Wu spoke as he drank the rest of his tea and got up, walking towards the doorframe.

Vinny nodded and waved slightly before sighing to himself once Wu left. He needed some alone time…none of the ninja, no Garmadon, no Wu, no Enji and no Rida…he wanted to lock himself in a room peacefully.

As the only sounds heard was the buzzing of the fridge and Vinnys’ quiet chewing. Only one subsided as the cameraman finished his food and tea, he cleaned the plate and cup before going back to his room.

As he dropped back down on his bed he looked at the time on his phone. “3:27…” he spoke to himself, it’s been a little over an hour, but Vinny could still get more sleep. Though he’d doubt it’d be as good as the one before.

He stretched as he laid down on the bed, his arms wrapping around one of the pillows while his head was rested on another, the blanket was awkwardly sprawled over his body as his thoughts disappeared one by one till he fell asleep again. Not as well as before…but good enough…

UPDATE
