(I suggest you check out parts 1-11 if you haven't already)

(With Sandy) Sandy woke up and stretched he looked towards the side of his bed expecting to see Mo there. It took him a moment but he realised his cat wasn't there quickly. "Mo!?" Sandy called out instantly going into a state of panic due to not having his precious kitten with him. The gentle giant began going through his boat house lifting up couches checking high and low for his cat.

Eventually after around 30minutes of searching he decided to go over to the noodle shop. "What's up with Mk?" Tang said to Pigsy inside the shop, "Don't know maybe h-" Pigsy was cut off by Sandy rushing into the shop. "Sandy! Geez trying to give us a heart attack" Tang shouted before slowly calming down. "I can't find Mo!" Sandy exclaimed his voice full of worry. "Wait what? Are you sur-" Pigsy asked before getting cut off again, "Yes I checked around the whole boat house!" Sandy replied knowing what the rest of the question would be.

Pigsy let out a sigh, "Maybe he just managed to escape and went somewhere?" He spoke out quickly not wanting to be interrupted again. "Where would he go?!" Sandy replied, "Sandy don't worry, Mo is a smart cat he's probably safe and is trying to get back here" Tang said in an attempt to comfort his worried friend. "Yea Tang is right he probably is sa-" Pigsy was cut off a third time by Mk rushing back in. "Sorry! Forgot a few orders....Sandy? Why are you here?" The noodle boy asked as he quickly noticed Sandy. "Mo is missing" The gentle giant replied sadly, "Wait actually?! I'll keep a look out for him while I'm delivering and when I'm done I'll go around" Mk replied making Sandy smile.

(Meanwhile with Red Son) The fire demon teleported into Megatroplis and had Mo on his shoulder. "You're one lucky cat..." Red Son said to Mo who meowed happily in response before nuzzling against Red Sons' cheek. "And you're cute..." The fire demon mumbled before putting on a hoodie and walking around. "The noodle shop was this way, right?" The fire demon asked the cat, Mo gave him an 'idk' look. "How can you not kn-...never mind I can't be mad at you.." Red Son said before continuing to walk.

"Well...here we are..." The fire demon said before looking through the window, "He should be gone by now..." he added noticing Mk in the window, from his time with him he quickly learnt what times Mk had work. Mo meowed happily once he saw Sandy in there. "There he is...you can go now..." Red Son said, Mo hissed in protest wanting the fire demon to take him in. "Really like being treated like royalty..." Red Son mumbled as he listened to Mo.

The fire demon hesitantly went in covering his face with the hoodie and looking at the ground. Mo suddenly relaxed in Red Sons' arms. "Oh hey a customer!" Mk said out noticing the person aka Red Son come in. "I-I'm not a customer...j-just came here to return someone I found..." Red Son responded before Mo jumped onto the ground. "Mo!" Sandy exclaimed happily.

Mo nuzzled against Sandy happily, the noodle boy looked at Red Son finding his voice sort of familiar. "Weird...so what's your name?" Pigsy asked, as he stared at Red Son clearly not knowing who it was, "I-I umm my name?" The fire demon responded clearly not expecting this. Pigsy nodded, "W-well" Red Son really didn't want to tell them his name and couldn't think of one on the spot. Mo suddenly climbed back onto Red Son and pulled back his hoodie. "Shit..." The fire demon mumbled.

"Red Son?!" The group exclaimed clearly not expecting this. "Maybe you're the one that kidnapped Mo!" Pigsy hissed angrily before he was ready to through and ladle at Red Son. "R-Red Son did you really?" Mk stuttered out, "No I didn't you noodle brains!" The fire demon responded as he tried leaving. Sandy looked pissed at the thought of someone kidnapping Mo, just as Pigsy was about to Mo stood in front of Red Son and hissed at the others.

Willow finished eating a got up, “I’m gotta leave now” she sighed out, causing Vinny to look up at her sadly. “Don’t look at me like that I already feel bad” she chuckled.

“If I don’t get to see you again before I leave here I will die” The cameraman spoke, earning a louder laugh from the nature elemental.

“Don’t worry I’ll come” She answered, “Someone just needs to tell and if he doesn’t I will never forgive him” she continued as she stared at her brother, clearly talking to him.

“Very well…”Shancai sighed as he continued eating.

“If anything happens tell me” The cameraman spoke to her.

“Obviously” Willow laughed out, “And you need to tell me stuff too…I need relationship updates” she added, receiving a soft nod and chuckle from Vinny. “I’ll see you all in a few days” she spoke as he began walking off.

“Bye” The cameraman spoke as he waved, while Shancai just waved. They watched Willow slowly disappear and then just ate in silence. Shancai finished eating first though and got up, approaching the training equipment, “Whatcha doing?” Vinny asked curiously.

“Just fixing this” The prince answered as he tightened something on the spinner equipment. the cameraman nodded as he finished the rest of his food and drank some water. Shancai signalled for him to get up which he did. “You’ve seen this right?”

“Yep, they have a lot of this stuff in the monastery” Vinny answered as he watched the prince do some stuff that the cameraman had no idea about.

“You know about about fighting?” The prince questioned.

“I can punch and kick things that’s it…I punched Enji once” The cameraman answered, he smiled at the memory of punching Enji.

“Let’s start with this” Shancai spoke as he went to the spinner equipment, it’s that one thing Nya broke in Seabound when Kai was worried about her. The cameraman paid close attention as the prince, spun the equipment. “When it spins around you’re gonna hit here and here” he pointed to two of the wooden logs pointing out.

Vinny nodded in response, “You’re gonna block with your arm for this one, only way you can hit it is if you’re fast enough” the prince added, as he pointed to another small log. Shancai did a demonstration as it spun around, he punched the logs and blocked one.

As the cameraman watched, something shiny caught his attention from the corner of his eyes. As he looked at a box filled with weapons…but there was something a mix of gold and silver. Vinny walked over to the box and looked in it. He pulled two matching things.

“What you looking at?” Shancai asked as he walked over crouching next to Vinny. The cameraman held it up, “Arm bracers, I don’r use those” the prince answered, the arm bracers were pretty nice, a nice leather with a mix of gold and silver as well as a red gem that definitely wasn’t ruby.

“It’s nice” The cameraman spoke, as his eyes practically lit up and he admired it.

“You want them?” The prince asked cashing Vinny to look at him surprisingly.

“I-I couldn’t…” the cameraman spoke, he felt a little guilty at taking so much.

“I don’t use them and neither does anyone else” Shancai spoke as he took the arm bracers and Vinnys’ arms as he began putting them on. “And you clearly hurt your arms a lot” he added, causing the cameraman to blush embarrassingly.

“N-not my fault” Vinny defended himself, as he allowed the prince to put the arm bracers on. “They’re really nice…” he spoke up.

“They are…I’ve never been able to wear them without discomfort” The prince answered, receiving an understanding nod from the cameraman. “You’re welcome in our kingdom you know that?” Shancai asked curiously as he continued putting the arm bracers on Vinnys’ arms.

“Y-yea?” The cameraman answered confusingly.

“You have guilt when you’re given stuff…” The prince spoke, “My mother and sister trust you…I trust you, and you’re not seen as a guest to us, you’re seen as family” The prince added, Vinny smiled softly hearing that, he saw them as family just as much.

“Thank you…” The cameraman sighed, “You’re all just constantly giving and I have nothing to give back…” he confessed.

“You’ve helped us…knowing what Rida and Enji are doing where we can’t see them is more than enough…especially after what you’ve been put though…” the prince answered, as he soothed Vinnys’ concerns. Shancai tightened the arm bracers, “Done…”

The cameraman stared at his arms, he really liked how they looked and they felt really nice, “I like it” Vinny spoke happily as he smiled at the prince.

“Good, now they’re yours” Shancai answered, as he watched the cameraman turned his arms and admire the arm bracers.

“Thanks” Vinny spoke happily, if he had a tail it would be wagging.

“You like the cloak?” The prince asked, as he brought up the topic of the makeshift cloak.

“Yep! It’s really comfy and the pin keeps it together” The cameraman answered, as he stood up with Shancai.

“That’s good…” the prince sighed, “How’s your wound?” He questioned once more.

“It hurts a little, but it’s just like stinging pain nothing much” Vinny answered, “How’s your stomach?”

“Fine” Shancai quickly answered.

“Don’t bullshit me” The cameraman spoke.

“It’s a little swollen…” The prince confessed.

“Show me” Vinny spoke, causing Shancai to sigh as he lifted up his shirt and undid the bandages. The cameramans’ eyes widened as he saw the bruise, it was a large bluish, purplish bruise than covered most of his stomach. “Fucking hell…that looks painful…”

“It’s fine, I’ve had worse before” The prince answered.

“Yea well that doesn’t change the fact that it definitively hurts” Vinny sighed as he rubbed his temples.

“Are we training or not?” Shancai spoke, as he lowered his shirt, he clearly didn’t like talking about his well-being.

“Alright alright” The cameraman sighed, as they went back to where they were training before, Vinny trying his best to lessen his concern for Shancai. The two kept secrets from others, more specifically when they got hurt. The cameraman didn’t tell Garmadon while Shancai didn’t tell his family.

They were an interesting dynamic, but got along. As Shancai continued to demonstrate the actions to the cameraman, he eventually gave Vinny a turn.

(With Vinny)

The cameraman had barely gotten any sleep last night, guilt was eating at him for snapping at Tenshi and his conversation with Rida just circled through his mind. What was he meant to do? He was really tired and he definitely wasn’t getting any sleep now, the sun was up.

Some people were awake, Nyssa was sadly still sleeping, but Tenshi was awake. Not like Vinny could approach him without something shitty happening. He groaned to himself and stared out the cell bars again, resting his forehead against them.

There was hardly any chance Tenshi would go along with the plan now. But there was a chance for tomorrow which was good…he could get Tenshi and Nyssa out if the plan actually worked.

He missed Garmadon…he should’ve told him all about this when it first started. He should’ve told someone, anyone! Sure Deity, Shancai and Willow knew, but that’s different…they’re aware of who Enji and Rida are. And now Wu and Jay knew, not his ideal choice of people but something at least.

“I’ll get back to you…” he whispered to himself as he stared out the bars. His eyes and body felt heavy as they began to droop, he can’t be falling asleep now. More and more people were starting to wake and falling asleep would be stupid.

“Fuck…” he muttered as he struggled to stay awake, exhaustion was catching up to him. Maybe…just a little rest.

As his eyes drooped shut and his breathing slowed while his body slowly went limp.

However this was short lived as he was jolted awake by a hand on his shoulder, he almost immediately grabbed the persons’ arm and threw them towards the ground, emitting a pained groan from them.

Vinnys’ eyes widened as he recognised the person, “Fuck! Nyssa, I am so sorry!” He immediately apologised as guilt crawled up his back and he immediately rushed to her and helped her up.

“It’s fine” Nyssa chuckled, “You’re on guard, I’ve done the same thing to a few people” she sighed as she eased his worries.

“A-are you sure?” The cameraman asked as he checked her for injuries.

“I’m fine I swear” Nyssa laughed as she patted his back, “Are you fine though? You look exhausted” she spoke bluntly.

“I’ve been better…” Vinny confessed as he rubbed the back of his head awkwardly.

“Hungry?” She questioned, the cameraman shook his head once more. “You sure? You haven’t eaten since yesterday morning…” she spoke with concern as her expression softened.

“I don’t have much of an appetite at all in here…and I’d rather starve than eat that food again…” Vinny sighed out, he felt sick at the mere thought of eating. It was much like how he felt after Rushifa forced him to eat- He shuddered at the thought and looked at the ground.

“C’mon, don’t starve yourself just yet…you’ll eat eventually” Nyssa sighed out.

“How’s Tenshi?” The cameraman questioned.

“He’s fine I guess…moody but fine” She answered, “If he doesn’t go with the plan today we still have tomorrow and you can try whatever you want” Nyssa added.

“I know…fuck” he groaned, “I really shouldn’t have yelled at him” he whined.

“You’re aware” she chuckled as she patted his back comfortingly, “Was kinda funny though, I expected him to lash out but he seemed really surprised considering that you’re not really…intimidating”

“What’s that meant to mean?” Vinny asked.

“You can hardly fight and well some of the best fighters in here wouldn’t even dare as to glare at him in the wrong way” Nyssa explained, “So you lashing out was really unexpected”

“Guess that makes sense…” the cameraman sighed, as he watched her get up.

“I’ll see you later” she spoke as she waved, Vinny just nodded and watched her walk off.

Time went by quickly as he was quickly dropped from the sky back into his own singular cell. He groaned in pain and rubbed his back before sitting up. He really hoped he wasn’t fighting again.

Everything seemed to be going fine, he hasn’t fought yet but Tenshi has and he won by a landslide almost immediately killing his opponent.

“I can’t believe I yelled at that man…” Vinny spoke to himself before chuckling softly as he realised who he was dating, a former warlord. Why was he so scared of Tenshi then?

More people fought and just as Vinny thought he was going to fight today his gate opened. “Fuck” he immediately spoke out loud, his eyes darted to Nyssas’ cell. She was staring at him with worry.

“Please fight” she mouthed to him, Tenshi was watching too. Though less concerned as the previous day, but he looked grumpy. Vinny couldn’t blame him, 25 years trapped does that to a man.

The cameraman took a deep breath as he exited his cell, his was fighting that guy that worked with Tex, what was his name? Chris? Vinny had no fucking idea and nor gave a fuck either. He just wanted to survive.

He held his dagger tightly as he stared at the man. “The is gonna be fun” Chris laughed as he grabbed a spear off the ground.

The cameraman rolled his eyes, how was he meant to fight? Chris attacked first and tired punching him, Vinny managed to thankfully block it. Thanks to some training from Shancai. Wait. That was it! Just as Shancai said while they trained, he should think of the person he hated the most.

It wasn’t Enji anymore, but Rida. He had to think of Rida. Think of how badly he wanted to kill him.

Vinny slashed his knife against his opponents’ leg, emitting a cry of pain as he pushed Vinny away. “Little dog!” He hissed.

“Save it for someone who cares” the cameraman answered in annoyance, as he pushed Chris to the ground and held the knife against his throat, this was going better than expected. Probably because Chris hadn’t expected this.

Vinny was kneed in the abdomen as he winced in pain, the dagger falling from his hand as Chris tried throwing him off, only to have two hands wrapped around his throat.

He was in a bit of a delusional state, much like how Enji did an illusion last time, except Enji wasn’t here and Vinny was very much thinking of killing Rida.

Chris thrashed as he tried tearing the cameramans’ hands from his throat, the colour slowly draining from his face as he gasped for the air that was torn from his lungs.

Vinny hadn’t realised what he’d done until the body laid limp beneath him, face blue as his eyes hanged open. “H-holy fuck…” the cameraman whispered as he let go of the mans’ throat, there were marks around his neck.

“Shit shit shit…” the cameraman’s repeated as his hands trembled, he hadn’t meant to do this. Though his gaze darted to Nyssa and Tenshis’ cell. They both looked shocked yet somewhat proud.

“Go back to your cell…” Tenshi mouthed, Vinny reluctantly nodded as he grabbed his dagger off the ground and rushed back to his cell, ignoring the calls from the others in their own cells.

Why did he do that? He wasn’t a murderer. This shouldn’t have happened. Those thoughts rung threw his head as he entered his cell and immediately dropped to his knees. “Fuck…” he whimpered as he felt tears pricking in the corner of his eyes.

He was so tired. Mentally and physically. He wanted out. He wanted to go home. He missed it when he was in his apartment. Just him and Garmadon. One of the only good things that happened recently is him meeting Deity, Shancai and Willow. He couldn’t decide about Tenshi and Nyssa…

Time seemed to fly by as more people fought, Vinny paid hardly any attention. His mind somewhere else as the image of the dead body stayed in his mind.

“Fucking hell…” he sighed out as he brushed a hand through his hair exasperatedly. “How I wish that was you Rida…” he muttered to himself.

As nightfall drew closer Vinny fell through the ground and back into the larger cell with all the other people. He immediately felt someones’ gaze blaring a hole into his head. It wasn’t Nyssa or Tenshi, but Tex. Great.

The cameraman didn’t acknowledge him, but instead just slumped down near the cell bars as of yesterday. He liked it there. He could see the stars. It was comforting.

“Hey…” Nyssa spoke as she walked over and sat next to him.

“Hey…” the cameraman quietly responded.

“First kill always gets to people…” she confessed, “Chris was an asshole, he deserved it…”

“I know…” Vinny whispered as he looked away.

“Not hungry again?” She asked, he just nodded. “Sleep…you need it” she added as she watched him nod slightly before his eyes slowly drooped shut.

Nyssa had a comforting presence and he was able to sleep pretty well.

Overwhelmed (Vinny x Garmadon)Part 52

(I suggest you check out parts 1-51 if you haven't already also if you've seen my other post about my own characters,Deity, she hasn't been added yet, but I changed my mind, she isn't 45 and Rida lied about his age in the last chapter, their ages will be revealed in future chapters)

"S-so anyways...what does Enji want from me? He appeared one day and turned my life into living hell" Vinny spoke as he avoided eye contact with Rida, clearly a little startled from his words before. "I think I mentioned this before...but you'll find out in due time...we don't plan on hurting you as long as you don't mess with our plans" The orange eyed man spoke as he returned to his calm state.

The cameraman sighed, "What happens if I do tell someone? Does the ninja know about you two? What about Garmadon or Wu?" He asked Rida, who chuckled softly at the questions, "No no...the ninja don't know about us...and I'm not sure about the other two, they might've heard about me before but not Enji" the orange eyed man replied as he and Vinny continued to walk.

"Why wouldn't they know about Enji?" The cameraman asked as he looked at up the taller. "I have a few things written about me in scrolls" Rida spoke causing Vinny to look at him in curiosity and surprise, "Why? He asked Rida, who chuckled in response and put a finger on his lips, "There is a limit to what I can say" The orange eyed man spoke in a singsongy voice as he gave Vinny a big smile.

The cameraman now confused, whether he should or shouldn't trust Rida. On one hand he seemed kind and trustworthy, but on the other hand...if he didn't want Vinny ask anyone about his past then there clearly is something to hide. "Anyway...should we go to my apartment? I've had enough outside for one day" The cameraman asked, in which Rida nodded.

The two walked to the apartment and made it there eventually. Vinny sat down on the couch and so did Rida. "Nice place you have" The orange eyed man spoke, Vinny smiled in response, before his phone started ringing and he picked it up. "Hey Lloyd...something up?" The cameraman asked.

"Uhh yea... so me and the others and going on a mission, Pixal discovered a high energy frequency so we're all going to check that put, Pixal, my dad and uncle are both staying here in the monastery" Lloyd said over the phone, the cameraman's expression softened hearing Lloyd mention Garmadon. "Alright then...I'll see you later" Vinny spoke before hanging up the phone.

"What did he need?" Rida asked curiously as he looked at the cameraman observing his behaviour. "They're just going on a mission, found some energy frequency" Vinny replied as he fidgeted with the dagger in his pocket. Hearing this caused Rida's behaviour to change, "Energy frequency..." The orange eyed man spoke quietly as he thought.

The cameraman looked at him curiously, "Something up?" Vinny asked, noticing the change in Rida's behaviour. "Nothing...I need to go do something...I'll see you later..." The orange eyed man replied as he got up and left the house, leaving Vinny confused. "Weird...I really shouldn't trust him..." The cameraman mumbled to himself.

Vinny sighed and leaned back against the couch, before looking back down to where Rida was sitting before and noticed a shard...a shard of glass, the cameraman remembered once that Rida told him that he gave Enji a mirror shard that teleported him anywhere. "What the hell...?" The mumbled to him as he looked at the shard and noticed trees in the background.

The cameraman caressed the shard before it starting to swirl. Vinny jumped slightly and dropped the shard, he looked back down on it before picking it up again. He grabbed the dagger from his pocket and carefully attached the shard to it. the shard definitely had some significance and could maybe give some answers later on.

He relaxed slightly and stared at the roof for who knows how long before drifting off to sleep.

(I suggest you check out parts 1-93 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)

(With Vinny)

The cameraman stirred awake as a bright light shone against his eyes. That sleep sucked. It wasn’t the worse sleep, but it still sucked and his body was aching. He looked around, right…he was in this place.

There were some people awake, but the only people, he really cared about was Tenshi and Nyssa. Nyssa as laid on the ground, her legs propped on a bench while Tenshi was resting against a wall, his hand on the axe firm. Vinny noticed the people he was warned about were awake, more specifically this guy named Tex.

There was nothing out of the ordinary with this guy, he just had massive asshole vibes radiating from him. The cameraman probably would’ve avoided him even if he wasn’t warned. Vinny let out a sigh as he rubbed his head. He had a migraine. Of course he did.

The cameraman just sat there for a while, he didn’t want to talk to anyone. He didn’t even know if he could fully trust Nyssa or Tenshi, but he hoped he could trust them. Most people seemed somewhat scared of Tenshi, and for good reason too. Surviving 25 years in this place has got to fuck someone up mentally and physically.

“Hey new guy!” Someone called out to Vinny, catching his attention as he looked up from where he was sitting. “Come join us!” The guy spoke, the man had dusty grey hair and black eyes, he was also sitting with that guy called Tex.

“Nah, I’m fine here” The cameraman answered, he had trust issues at this point. Rida ruined his trust in anyone.

“Nonsense! Just a quick conversation, we wanna get to know you!” Tex spoke as he walked over and harshly grabbed Vinnys’ arm, dragging him off the ground and onto his feet. The cameraman tried protesting, but was dragged over to the group with the other men. “I’m Tex, that’s Chris and that’s Jun” he spoke as he swung on arm over Vinnys’ shoulder.

“I’m Vinny?” The cameraman awkwardly introduced himself as he tried pulling Tex’s arm off him.

“Nice name” Jun spoke, though it was clearly a lie hidden between honeyed words.

“What’s a guy like you doing here? And that fight yesterday was entertaining as Nyssa said” Chris chuckled out as he sat next to Vinny.

“How the fuck am I meant to know?” Vinny grumbled as he rubbed his forehead, he was not in the mood for this. These guys were annoying.

“It’s strange that the fight was ended before anyone died” Tex spoke, “You know anything about Rida?” He questioned.

“No” The cameraman answered bluntly, he didn’t want to tell anyone what he knew about Rida, mainly because he hardly knew much about Rida.

“This is really nice” Tex snarked as he lifted Vinnys’ arm and stared at the arm bracers. “Where’d you get em’ from?” He asked, as he watched the cameraman pull his arm away.

“Wouldn’t you like to know” Vinny hissed as he tried getting up, only to be pulled back down on the bench.

“Why so harsh?” Jun asked with a smile, “We’re trying to be friendly”

“I didn’t ask you to nor do I care” The cameraman answered as he knocked their hands off of him.

“What happened to your hand?” chuckled Chris as he grabbed Vinnys’ hand, he still had stitches in his hand from when he had Zane and Pixal stitch up the stab wound from Enji.

“Why don’t I represent it on?” The cameraman scowled, pulling away his hand once more as he stood up trying to walk away, only to be threw against the table.

“Your face is awfully plain” Tex chuckled as he grabbed the dagger from Vinnys’ pocket and pressed it against the cameramans’ cheek, not hard enough to pierce.

“Get off me asshole” Vinny hissed, he was not in a mood for this. Everyone he met now seemed to be assholes, he still wasn’t sure about Nyssa and Tenshi.

“Shh, wouldn’t want to wake up those two” Tex chuckled as he pointed to Nyssa and Tenshi who were sleeping on separate sides of the cellar. “I’m sure if we tried hard enough we could kill Nyssa, so it would be smart to stay quiet” he added.

Vinny growled in annoyance before bringing up his fist to greet Tex’s jaw, earning a pained hiss form his as he dropped the dagger and stumbled back. “Little bitch” the cameraman spat as he picked up his dagger from the ground.

The three didn’t have a good reaction to this as Chris and Jun lunged forward and held Vinny against a table and just as Tex was about to punch him, someone stopped him. “Are you fucking insane?!” It was Nyssa, the cameraman let out a sigh of relief as he saw her holding back Tex’s arm.

“He deserves it” Tex spat as he rubbed his sore jaw, and tried bringing his fist down to meet Vinnys’ face. Nyssa kept trying to stop him, but Jun distracted her and Tex managed to get a punch on Vinny. Other people in the cellar began waking up and witnessing the fight as the cameraman managed to dodge one of the punches, before kneeing Tex in the guts.

Vinny managed to scramble away before watching as Jun and Nyssa fought, Nyssa was trying to get over to the cameraman, she knew Vinnys’ defensive abilities and safe to say they weren’t ‘good’…

Tex and Chris tried attacked Vinny again, pinning him to the ground. The dagger was grabbed by Tex and he was about to stab it into the Vinnys’ throat. “Fucking hell! You’re so short tempered!” Nyssa hissed at Tex as she tried pushing Jun off her.

“So what” Tex hissed as he lifted the dagger, Vinny writhing around trying to push them off and escape. Tex was distracted by a hand on his shoulder as he was thrown back. “Who the hell!?” He hissed as he looked up at the person, his voice trailed off as he saw Tenshi standing there holding an axe.

“Let him go” Tenshi spoke to Chris, who was still holding Vinny down. To say that Vinny was let go of quickly would be an understatement, Chris removed his hands of Vinny faster than the speed of light. “You let her go” Tenshi added as he pointed the axe to Jun who was holding Nyssa down.

Nyssa was let go of quickly as she rushed to Vinnys’ side, helping him up. “He is right about you…you all are little bitches” Tenshi muttered to Tex and the other two. His voice was low and scarily calm yet threatening. Did Tenshi hear what they were talking about before?

Tex and the other two rush off into the other corner of the cellar, while Tenshi just scoffed as he went back and sat down against the wall. “When the fuck were you on his good side?” Nyssa whispered to Vinny, “He’s never protected anyone like that”

“I mean, we talked last night?” The cameraman confessed as he dusted himself off. They both heard murmurs from all the other people in the cellar.

“You two come here” Tenshi spoke as he dropped the axe down onto the ground next to him. Nyssa exchanged looks of wordy with Vinny as they went over to Tenshi and reluctantly sat down when he patted the ground.

“You’re not gonna kill me right?” Nyssa bluntly asked, she was very clearly nervous as he bounced her leg repeatedly.

“Kill you? No, if you so as betray my trust I will torture you, same as you” Tenshi spoke to the two as they nervously nodded.

“Fair” Vinny sighed out as he stretched.

“What even happened for you to get them so pissed?” Nyssa questioned as she leaned back.

“They wanted to know me better, and I didn’t want to know them” the cameraman began, “Tex took the dagger and was gonna scratch my face so I punched him” he continued.

“You forgot to mention something” Tenshi muttered.

“Like what?” The cameraman asked as he cocked his head, Nyssa seemed confused too.

“They told him to be quiet so he didn’t wake you up, and they said if he woke you up they would kill her…that’s when you punched her” Tenshi answered, causing Nyssa’s eyes to widen as she looked at Vinny.

“Aww thank you” Nysaa thanked the cameraman with a smile as she hugged the cameraman.

“I-I don’t like it when people talk about or hurt my friends…” Vinny muttered, it reminded him all too well of Rida and Enji.

“I’m your friend?” Nyssa asked receiving a nod from Vinny, “How long do you think we’re all gonna survive this?” She sighed out.

“Vinny has more things with Rida than he lets on…we talk about this last night, which is why I’m helping you” Tenshi spoke, “He thinks he can find an escape”

“Seriously?” Nyssa asked, “You’ve been here for years Tenshi and haven’t found a way to escape and you’re helping him because he knows somethings about Rida? What do you even know about Rida?” She spoke.

“It’s stupid I know” Tenshi sighed, “But Rida definitely didn’t want me killing him yesterday meaning there’s a chance we can escape this place”

“I’m not that dumb Nyssa” Vinny chuckled out, “And yes I do know some stuff about Rida…he annoyed me outside of this place”

“I understand Nyssa, but I’m only telling you this, because I know you want this just as much” Tenshi sighed out.

“So you in or out?” The cameraman asked her.

“I’m in” Nyssa immediately chuckled out, “Where’s the fun here either way?”

“Alright then! Now we just don’t need to die” Vinny spoke.

“You don’t need to die…Tenshi’s been here for 25 years, he’s the champion in this place” Nyssa laughed out as she leaned back.

“That doesn’t mean I can’t die” Tenshi spoke.

“No one’s dying!” The cameraman spoke up, receiving a laugh from Nyssa. There was this silence for a while before Nyssa looked out at the sky.

“I say we have around 20 minutes till we’re fighting” she spoke.

“What?” Vinny asked as he cocked his head.

“We’re sent back to those cells from yesterday and people are chosen to fight” Tenshi explained, before handing the axe to Nyssa.

“Don’t be afraid to kill” Nyssa spoke to Vinny, “it’s either your life or someone else’s life, so best it be someone else’s life” she sighed out as she took the axe.

“Can I see your hand?” Tenshi asked Vinny, he reluctantly gave him his hand. “I can get rid of the stitches, the wound is closed…how did you even get this?” He spoke.

“Alright?” The cameraman answered, “Someone stabbed me…works with Rida and is quite literally one of my least favourite people, but sometimes my favourite person when I meet someone worse than him” Vinny explained.

“Dagger” Tenshi spoke to the cameraman who handed him the dagger. “That’s strange…what’s this persons’ personality like?” He asked as he took the dagger and began gently slicing the stitches.

“A lot like Tex actually…but Tex is just worse for some reason, don’t like him” Vinny explained.

“So if we get out of here I’m gonna kill him” Nyssa chuckled.

“You remind me of this one friend I have…you would get along with her” The cameraman spoke to Nyssa as he aloud Tenshi to keep slicing the stitches.

“Really? What’s her name?” Nyssa asked, her eyes lighting up happily.

“Willow” Vinny answered with a smile, though he and Nyssa looked confused when they saw Tenshi bristle at the name.

“You ok?” Nysa asked curiously.

“I’m fine” Tenshi bluntly answered as he let go of Vinnys’ hand.

“I’ll go get food” Nyssa spoke as she got up and walked away.

“Your hand should be fine” Tenshi spoke to the cameraman.

“Thanks” Vinny sighed out as he watched Nyssa, quickly come back with three bowls of whatever this food was.

The three ate in silence, there wasn’t much to talk about. Once they finished they talked about random stuff till they all fell throw the ground in into separate cells. “Great…” Vinny grumbled as he stared out the bars of the cell.

He could only wait and see if he was gonna fight. He hoped he didn’t have to fight though, he was tired.

Overwhelmed(Vinny x Garmadon)Part 61

(I suggest you check out parts 1-60if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)

Vinny turned his attention to the door as Pixal walked out, Zane quickly noticed her, “Is something wrong?” The ice ninja asked, as everyone came around,

“Sadly yes…the key from yesterday is missing, I’ve checked the cameras and the man you all met as well as a masked accomplice were on it” The female nindroid spoke, Vinnys’ eyes widened hearing that, they were bound to find our eventually, but it still scared him.

He did feel some relief when Pixal said to was a masked accomplice, that meant Enjis’ illusion worked. “How’d they get in? The scanner only has a few people registered” Nya spoke as worry creeped on her face.

“I am unsure…perhaps a mask or some sort” Pixal replied.

“Well this is great…we have to deal with that guy and someone else” Kai groaned before receiving a comforting pat on the back from Cole. The cameraman felt terrible, but he constantly reminded himself this was to protect them.

“Did the cameras show anything else?” Wu questioned, the others looked at Pixal, curiously.

“Yes, the man seemed to have vanished after he used a mirror of some sort” She spoke, causing everyone except Vinny to turn their heads in confusion.

“A mirror? Most likely enchanted then” Garmadon spoke, hearing this made Vinny take a sharp breathe. He knew the others were smart, but he didn’t want them to guess it so accurately.

“That would make sense” Pixal replied.

“What time was it when it happened?” Vinny questioned, he needed to ask questions, would be less suspicious that way.

“Around 2:30” The female nindroid replied.

“I got up for water around that time…didn’t see anyone” Lloyd spoke, catching the attention of the others.

“Perhaps they hid” Zane spoke, receiving nods from the others.

“This sucks…” Jay groaned in annoyance.

“Agreed…as much as I enjoy battles, this is too much, that chest and key seem pretty dangerous” Cole added.

“Pixal, is there any chance you could track the energy signal of the chest again?” Wu asked.

“I have already started that, though the odds of finding it again are low” The female nindroid reply.

“I say we train…nest time we see that guy we can defend ourselves better” Kai spoke as he formed a fireball in his hand. Wu nodded and pointed the ninja to the training course, they all went back to training except Lloyd, he sat next to Vinny.

The cameraman let out a shaky breathe he didn’t even know he was holding, when he saw the others leave. Though anxiety returned when Lloyd sat next to him.

“This is a bit crazy, eh?” Lloyd spoke as he leaned back, Vinny just nodded. “Man…this guy’s annoying me…” he added.

“Agreed…causing problems for everyone…” The cameraman replied.

“I’ll go train a little then come back, alright?” Lloyd asked, receiving a nod from Vinny.

The cameraman was left alone again, he reluctantly took the wrapped mirror shard out of his pocket and observed it again. He made sure Wu and Garmadon weren’t looking, they seemed more focused on criticising the ninjas fighting ability and seeing what they could work on.

He continued to stare at the shard, turning it to stare at its sides, it was definitely broken off something due to its sharp and jagged edges. Though it did have a nice colour tone to it, a extremely light orange and red with a sort of metallic finish.

He took a shaky breathe as it began to warp again, the orange and red becoming darker as it spun around instead turning to a blue and purplish colour. He was curious as to what would happen, when it happened last time he dropped it on the ground and it went back to normal.

The warping continued before it zapped Vinny slightly causing him to drop it in the ground…but when he did…it didn’t stop like last time, it kept going causing Vinny to throw the cloth on it to try and hide it.

To the cameramans’ surprise…the ground beneath everyone turned the same purple and blue colour…“What the fuck!?” Kai shouted as he stared at the ground, everyone was confused and slightly terrified, Vinny was freaking out. If the others found out this was his fault he was fucked.

Without warning…they fell through…they all shouted as they fell from the sky…Garmadon, Wu, Zane and Pixal weren’t there…but they did fall through…that was the least of his worries as they free fell from the sky, Nya managed to hold onto a tree branch before she plummeted towards the ground.

She caught Jay’s hand and held him up, while Cole formed a rock ledge beneath him and Kai…Lloyd on the other hand got it easy and just landed in a bunch of vines.

Vinny however was not so lucky…he wasn’t close to the others so he just fell…and fell and fell…hitting against tree branches as he groaned and winced in pain, before he got stuck in some vines.

“Holy fuck! Vinny are you alright!?” Cole called out from above as he stared down from the rock ledge at where Vinny fell. The others were just as worried as Nya pulled Jay onto the tree and they slowly climbed down all together.

“Yea…” was all Vinny spoke as he just laid in the vines…his left arm hurt…Kai immediately ran over to Vinny as they made it to the ground. He and Lloyd began tearing the vines that trapped him away.

“What the hell happened!?” A very confused and pissed off Jay spoke as he clutched his shoulder which was just hit very hard.

“You okay?” Cole asked the cameraman, he just nodded as he winced and clutched his arm.

Nya gently grabbed Vinnys’ arm and lifted up the jacket sleeve. All their clothes had cuts in them. “If you broke your arm, then so help me” The water ninja sighed, as she squeezed Vinnys’ arm causing him to wince.

“Take off your jacket…we don’t know if it’s broken, but we can make a temporary sling to somewhat help it” Lloyd spoke, Vinny nodded and took off his jacket. Lloyd carefully wrapped it around the cameramans’ neck and kept his arm in there.

“Now we have that done…” Nya spoke, “Where the fuck are we?” She questioned as she and the others looked around, trees and mountains stood tall around them as birds flew by.

Vinny couldn’t careless where they were…he wanted to know if Garmadon was safe…

(I suggest you check out parts 1-95 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)

The rest of the day was spent watching random people fighting, Nyssa didn’t fight though, but Vinny didn’t mind. He was scared of seeing her get hurt. Time went by painfully slow, before the cameraman fell through the ground again back into the large cell with all the other people.

Vinny quickly went to Nyssa and Tenshi, who already were together. “Dumbass” Nyssa sighed out to the cameraman, clearly talking about his actions while fighting.

“I know” Vinny whined as his cheeks flushed in embarrassment.

“You can’t expect to leave this place if you’re dead” Tenshi spoke as he sat down against the wall, Nyssa sat down next to him.

“I know I know…” the cameraman repeated as he stared out the bars of the cell walking over to it.

“What are you looking at?” Nyssa called out as she cocked her head. Tenshi was just as confused, especially when Vinny didn’t answer. The sky was a little dark, but the cameraman could see faint shimmering in the distance underneath a body.

It was reflecting, a mirror. It didn’t seem like a normal mirror. Could it be? Maybe it was a mirror like Enjis’…if it was then that was their way out. If it was a normal mirror then he was fucked. He really hoped it was that mir-

Vinny humped when he felt a hand on his shoulder, Shit! Sorry sorry” Nyssa chuckled as she stared at the cameraman who almost had a heart attack.

“You scared me…” Vinny sighed out as he rubbed his head.

“Clearly…whatcha looking at?” She questioned as she stared out of the bars.

“Just seeing if there’s a way out…” the cameraman answered, it was half a lie and half a truth, he didn’t want to give them false hope.

“Good luck with that” Nyssa sighed out.

“Is there…any chance that we would all be out of the cells one day, me, you and Tenshi?” The cameraman questioned.

“I uh…yea? Should be like after tomorrow” Nyssa answered, very clearly confused.

“Any chance we can get our tomorrow?” Vinny asked as he stared out the cell, his attention back onto the mirror shard.

“Not really…the only way we can is if you fight again and stay out of your cell, Tenshi can break the bars for himself and me” Nyssa awkwardly answered as she looked back at Tenshi on the ground, who was looking at them with curiosity.

“Good…if I fight tomorrow can you do that?” The cameraman asked, his voice eerily calm as he provided no explanation.

“I can ask Tenshi?” Nyssa answered as she cocked her head, “What’s all this for?” She eventually spoke up.

“I have a plan…it could fail, but it’s probably our only way out” Vinny answered, causing her eyes to widen.

“How? There’s no exit. And we’re in a giant pit. Not like we can climb out” Nyssa sighed out as she rubbed her head.

“I can’t explain it yet…” the cameraman spoke, “I just need you to trust me…”

“Trust is a hard thing to earn in a place like this…” she spoke, causing Vinnys’ expression to soften. “But…if you have a plan then it’s worth a shot” she chuckled out as she patted his back. The cameraman smiled at her softly.

“Can you tell Tenshi?” Vinny asked, receiving a nod from Nyssa as she patted his back once more before walking back to Tenshi, who was trying to interpret the conversation.

The cameraman didn’t bother listening to the conversation and kept staring out the cell. Squinting his eyes harder as he desperately tried confirming that it was in fact a teleportation mirror.

He still couldn’t quite tell, the sky was getting darker by the minute. Vinny groaned quietly as he held onto the bars and rested his head against them.

This plan had to work. How else would he get out? He need to get back to the kingdom. Poor Deity, being the first to notice he’s missing. He had to get back! He had to get back to his friends! He had to get back to Garmadon-

“Fuck…” he whispered to himself as he lifted his head before knocking to back down on the bars. Didn’t hurt as much as he expected.

When he lifted his head once more, his heart dropped and his breath caught in his throat. In the blanket of darkness he could make out two bright orange eyes staring not at everyone…at him…

“Rida…” Vinny spat out with pure malice as his grip tightened on the bars. He was scared of course. But angry too. This whole time he thought Rida was somewhat better than Enji…but no Rida was worse. Enji was his coverup. His scapegoat.

The cameraman grimaced as the eyes kept staring at him, teeth now bared at him. It was too dark to make out the silhouette of a body. But he knew it was Rida…

He squinted his eyes, but the bright orange eyes staring back at him slowly faded away til nothing was left…other than the vivid memory. Vinny clenched his fist in annoyance. What did he want from him? What has he done to deserve this? Why can’t be al-

The cameraman jumped when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He expected Nyssa, and it was her. “I-I uh…Tenshi wants to talk to you…he doesn’t seem happy about the plan…” Nysaa awkwardly spoke as she looked at Vinny with worry, “I calmed him down the best I could”

“Thanks…don’t get yourself into trouble for me” the cameraman answered as he smiled at her before walking off to Tenshi, who was now standing in the far corner of the cell. Vinny could feel the worried eyes of Nyssa on him and tried to ignore it the best he could.

The cameraman took a deep breath, “What’s up?” He asked, nonchalantly.

“Don’t play dumb…your plan is fucking stupid” Tenshi hissed, as quiet as he could. Vinny was gonna speak up, but was cut off. “You can’t just say you have a plan and not tell us!” He scowled.

“I know I know…” the cameraman sighed, “But please trust me” he begged.

“How!?” Tenshi asked with annoyance, “What plan is possibly so good it could get us out of here!?”

“Listen-“ he tried talking.

“You’re gonna get us all killed and you’re dragging Nyssa into this!” Tenshi hissed, “She’s young! She shouldn’t be risking herself!”

Vinny tried talking once more, but was cut off as Tenshi continued rambling. The cameraman couldn’t blame him. It was a stupid plan. And Tenshi was right…he was dragging Nyssa into this, but he wanted to get them both out of here…not just himself…

“You can’t defend yourself! Whatever plan you have will only work if you kill someone!” Tenshi hissed, it was starting to get on Vinnys’ nerves. Or maybe it was just the pent up emotions over the days. He’s had a lot happen. “If we’re seen trying to escape Rida will kill us!”

“Listen! I fucking understand! It’s a stupid plan!” The cameraman snapped, “But we’re never getting out of here if we play it safe! I don’t fucking care about Rida! He can go fuck himself and suck up his ego! And that’s something you need to do!” Vinny hissed as he pointed at Tenshi.

The cell went silent, every conversation that was happening stopped. The cameraman didn’t care, he didn’t even notice. However he did notice the surprise on Tenshis’ face. Maybe yelling at the champion was a shitty idea.

“You’ve been here for 25 years! A little risk won’t kill you! Rida clearly doesn’t want you dead!” Vinny shouted, continuing his outburst. He was so tired. “But if Rida does want to kill us! I’ll fucking kill myself, cause I’m sick of him and this place and I would give up my life just to stab him in the fucking shoulder again! But I won’t let him lay a hand on you two!”

“You’ve what?” Tenshi finally spoke up, anger was evident in his voice though he was trying to control it. Thought it was obvious that Tenshi only processed one thing that was Vinny stabbed Rida before.

The cameraman grumbled in annoyance throwing his hands in the air exasperatedly, before storming off to the other corner of the cell, bar the bars. He ignored the murmuring of the there he walked by, he left Tenshi all confused.

Vinny muttered swears to himself before sliding down on the wall till he was sat. He anxiously stroked his hand through his hair, bouncing his foot nervously. “Fuck…” he hysterically laughed out as he swung his head back onto the wall, letting out a sigh. He was mad at himself, he understood why Tenshi was mad.

The cameraman was caught off guard, by Nyssa sitting next to him. “Do you have a death wish?” She asked quietly.

“Yes…” Vinny sighed out, “What are the chances he goes along with the plan now?” He chuckled out.

“Lower…” Nyssa confessed, “You shouldn’t have yelled at him…”

“I know…just tired” Vinny answered as he smiled at her.

“You’re crazy…” she sighed out.

“Aren’t we all?” The cameraman asked, receiving a soft nod and chuckle from Nyssa.

“Hungry?” She asked, Vinny shook his head. “I’ll give you some alone time you look like you need it…I’ll try talking to Tenshi”

“Thanks…” The cameraman whispered, Nyssa smiled before walking off. What a nice day. Vinny rubbed his forehead, he had a headache. He fidgeted with the Phoenix pin of his cloak, opening and closing it. Time went by quick, soon almost everyone was asleep.

The cameraman reluctantly laid down, using the cloak as a pillow. He wasn’t cold. Vinnys’ eyes grew heavy quickly and before he knew it he was passed out, deep in sleep.

Though maybe deep in sleep wasn’t a good thing, as his eyes fluttered open and now he was in a dark room. He growled and looked around. Where was he? The cameramans’ hand slid to the dagger in his pocket, but he realised it wasn’t there.

“I knew you would do that” a familiar voice spoke, one that made Vinny boil with anger as he whipped around and saw Rida…sat on a chair, fiddling with dagger and wearing the Phoenix mask. This was familiar…just like when Rida first violated his dreams.

“Get out of my head” The cameraman scowled.

“You’re quick to catch on this time” Rida chuckled, before snapping his fingers. A chair appeared behind Vinny as he was pushed down on it. “I must say…that was entertaining to watch, you and Tenshi? No one’s ever dared to speak to him like that, besides me of course” he chuckled out.

“It was an accident” Vinny muttered, he felt guilty about that.

“Sure…didn’t you snap at Garmadon once? I must admit you have quite a temper now!” Rida laughed out sadistically as he took off his mask. Vinnys’ eyes widened as he heard that, guilt crawling up his back.

“Why am I here? Why did you trap me here?” The cameraman asked quietly, he wanted out.

“Your precious Deity didn’t tell you?” Rida asked, confusing Vinny. “Or perhaps she hasn’t realised yet…or old age caught up to her and she’s stupider than ever” he chuckled as he threw the dagger at the cameraman.

“Don’t talk about her like that” Vinny hissed as he caught the dagger, he hated how Rida spoke of Deity.

“Would you stab me again?” Rida asked, “I must say you have quite a harsh stab, you drive the dagger in like you’re eating meat…you are quite experienced in eating flesh aren’t you?” He spoke, his voice silky and sly. Vinny felt a wave of sickness hearing this, he knew what Rida was talking about…Rushifa, that snake…

“Maybe I will stab you again” the cameraman snapped back, trying to sound intimidating but the nausea made his voice sound wobbly.

“Sure…you won’t escape from here” Rida chuckled as he stood up and cupped Vinnys’ cheeks. “I’ve been wondering how this would fit you…” he spoke as he grabbed the phoenix mask and put it on Vinnys’ face. The cameraman didn’t protest, not like he could. Ridas’ grip was strong.

“Take it off…” Vinny muttered.

“Why? It fits you so well…as if you’re meant to work with me” Rida spoke as he smiled sharply at him.

“You wish” The cameraman spat as he pulled his face away and took the mask off.

“Maybe you’ll understand someday…but you won’t leave anytime soon” Rida chucked before putting the mask back on before slowly fading away. Vinnys’ eyes shut before they opened once more as his body jolted awake, he sat up, breathing heavily and looking around. He was in the cell this time and now everyone was asleep.

He couldn’t fall asleep again, Ridas’ words stayed in his mind. Cycling over and over again as he stared out at the night sky.

(I haven’t uploaded in a while, I’ve been so busy and have writers block. But this is a pretty big chapter hope it’s good enough)
