Just an Illusion (A Ninjago Reader Insert)

Versus

Lloyd huffed. "Well I know what we are being served- a whole bunch of baloney! This tournament isn't about glory. It's about Chen stealing out powers!"

"First, keep your voice down you idiot! Second, why is he doing it anyway?"

"Ugh, isn't it obvious? Chen wants to destroy Ninjago city!"

"Uh I don't know Kai. From what Sensei G's told us about him, I have a feeling its something far more sinister."

"And may I remind us, we still don't know where Zane is. Which is why we all need to take care of our first rounds to give us more time."

The ninja were stunned by Jay's attire. Instead of his gi, he was still in his pajamas.

"Uh Jay, what's with the outfit?"

"Ha, it's my day off! Extra creamy biscuits, and don't skimp!" he laughed, walking away with a tower of biscuits.

"Day off? And I thought ninja never quit!"

"And I thought ninja wouldn't steal your girlfriend!"

Cole and Jay glared at one another, while Y/n watched on in confusion.

"Say what?"

"Whatever you have to say to each other say it now." interrupted Garmadon. "There's no use in holding onto a grudge."

"I dropped it first!"

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

The former friends started fighting each other, sending Jay's tower of biscuits and Cole's juice to the floor. Garmadon sighed.

"This tournament will test them Lloyd. Find a way for them to be at peace, or they'll both lose."

"What's wrong with those two anyway? I thought you said they were friends."

Kai groaned a little. "Basically, Jay was dating my sister Nya, until some stupid love game thing told her she should be with Cole, she got all confused, Jay found out, and n here."

"So, a pointless love triangle?"

"Yeah."

"Fricking excellent." she finished sarcastically.

Just then, Chen's voice came over the intercom. "Would the following fighters please prepare and make their way to their designated arenas: Speed, Gravity, Nature, Mind, Ash, and finally-"

"Huh, maybe we all got the day off."

"Fire!"

Kai gasped. He panicked internally. He knew it was coming, just not so fast. Y/n look at

**

Kai had bade his friends goodbye and gone with Chen's soldiers to his arena. He had hidden his fear well, but it was there none the less. Y/n now followed the others to the first fight, until Cole stopped her.

"Oh, hey Cole. Everything alright?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Listen, Kai asked me if I could help you with your training...in case anything were to happen...y'know?"

Y/ n stopped in her tracks. "D -do we really have to? Right now?"

"Well it would help us get a head-start on things, but if you don't want to -"

"No no, it's fine, I-let's just get it over with. If we're really doing this."

He nodded slowly, before leading her to one of the palace courtyards. The place had been cleaned out of any other competitors earlier, leaving them with full access of the area. Cole suddenly caught Y/n off guard, charging towards her. She quickly dodged past and steadied herself. Cole smirked lightly. She was faster than she looked. The two began fighting, first with hands only, then with more karate-style combat. Y/n struggled to keep up at first, but soon fell into a rhythm of attacking, blocking and dodging. Finally, Cole ended it by flipping her onto her back, before helping her stand again.
