(Go check out part 1-14 if you haven't really gives an insight also go check out my other book if you're interested in Mk x Red Son from lego monkie kid also Zane can still eat human food it's like the beginning of the series he still ate and i just kept it the same but it isnt needed)
Vinny grabbed his shirt and put it on, "Well looks like I need to wear my jacket" Vinny said staring at the hickeys that wear peeking from his shoulders, "Sorry.." Garmadon said out with a hint of guilt in his voice earning a soft kiss on his forehead and a quick affirmation from his lover. "Wanna go see if anyone's awake?' Vinny asked receiving a nod from Garmadon. The two got up before Garmadon gave Christofern a splash of water and the going out.
"Who do you think is up?" Vinny asked staring at his lover with a curious look plastered onto his face. "Mhm...probably my brother and the ice ninja" Garmadon replied, "Yea I agree, but I also think that Lloyd may be up" the smaller added, "I don't think he'll be up yet" The larger replied earning a smug smirk from Vinny, "Well if I get it right I get to kiss you" Vinny said smugly, Garmadon blushed before staring at him, "Well I certainly wouldn't mind that" the oni replied confidently before grabbing Vinnys' wrists and pinned him against the wall . Vinny turned bright red, "Well I'd like to add one more thing to this deal between us" The larger whispered into his ear. "R-really what's t-that..?" Vinny stuttered out embarrassingly, "Winner gets to do what ever they want with the loser for a day~" Garmadon whispered out seductively . "O-ok!" the smaller responded quickly hoping that he would be the one winning this bet.
"Now let's go before someone comes and sees us" Garmadon said before letting go of Vinny and starting to walk. Once Vinny recovered from the embarrassment of being pinned to the wall he quickly caught up with Garmadon. They both walked and eventually saw Wu drinking tea and Zane making breakfast probably for everyone. "Morning brother" Wu said before Garmadon done the same. The larger stared at Vinny with a smirk on his face. He lost the bet and he could only hope this went well. "I am making breakfast would you like it now or do you want to wait for the others" Zane asked as he flipped pancakes, "We can both wait just wanted to be out early" Vinny replied politely before sitting down with Garmadon.
"Did you both sleep well?" Wu asked earning a nod from Vinny but not Garmadon, "What about you brother?" Wu asked again, "Hmm? Yea I slept well" the oni responded. The four began talking about random things and eventually each ninja came one by one except Nya and Jay cause they share a bed so they come down at the same time. Lloyd was the last one to come to the kitchen and don't worry the kitchen is pretty big so they all fit. "Morning Lloyd!" Kai said out energetically, followed by the rest saying morning, "You're up later the usual sleep late?" Nya asked, Lloyd let out a soft chuckle, "I guess you could say something like that" the green ninja said before smiling at his father. "C'mon bud come take a seat" Kai said patting the chair next to him before drinking some coffee. Lloyd sat down next to kai who was sitting next to Cole. "Did ya at least sleep well?" Cole asked, "Haha yea honestly that was the best sleep i've had for a while" Lloyd replied he wasn't joking he just felt a lot better knowing that his father was happy.
Zane handed out plates of pancakes to everyone, "Oooo pancakes my favourite!" Jay said out excitedly earning a soft chuckle from Nya before starting to eat. The group began eating and talking about their plans for their day while cracking up jokes. Eventually one of the jokes made Garmadon laugh out loudly and honestly everyone stared at him surprisingly and their was this awkward silence. "Well, well, well I bet you guys didn't know the former oni warlord was capable of laughing like that!" Vinny joked sarcastically breaking the silence, relieving Garmadon of the stress and making everyone laugh, "Vinny you really did wonders to help him" Kai laughed, Kai didn't really like Garmadon but he didn't hate him he understood the feeling of being corrupted just the tournament of elements he was corrupted by the staff and almost ended up hurting Lloyd so he couldn't blame Garmadon he at least put effort on changing and honestly seemed like a pretty cool guy.
"Honestly Garmadon I would've never thought of all of us being at the same table ever since we found out Lloyd was the green ninja like forever ago" Cole chuckled with his mouth half full, "Don't talk with your mouth full you idiot" Kai said gently bonking his head, "Yea but honestly Cole has a point and I'm honestly happy we don't have to fight you again" Jay said out nervously. "Jay you sound like the most nervous wreck right now try to sound a little more confident" Nya chuckled out, "Nya is right your blood pressure increased meaning you are nervous" Zane added, "H-Hey! don't out me like that!" Jay said out embarrassingly before hiding his face. Wu and Lloyd let out a sigh at everyones' stupidity, "What they're trying to say is that we're really happy with the progress you have made since well you were brought back" Wu said. "Couldn't have said it better myself" Lloyd said.
To be honest Garmadon was a bit overwhelmed with the compliments and Vinny could tell, "Okay okay everyone, enough with the compliments Garm here seems a bit overwhelmed, he's never had so many compliments before" Vinny laughed and so did everyone the group continued eating and laughing.
They all finished and everyone had an hour before they started doing stuff so Vinny and Garmadon talked where it was all alone, "Don't think I forgot about our little deal~" Garmadon said out in a seductive voice before pushing Vinny up against the wall and kissing him, "You'll get the rest of the deal later~~" Garmadon added before kissing Vinny again and then they began making out.

"W-what do mean?" Red Son stuttered out to Macaque while blushing. "Kid don't you be in denial, I know you like Mk" the shadow monkey said as he floated around the fire demons' room. "I-I don't like him! Why would I ever like a peasant such as him?!" Red son shouted becoming a bit defensive of himself. "Kid it's fine if you like him, I have nothing against it" Macaque responded as he bit into a plum. "We both know why that is..." Red Son said, "H-Hey! We're not doing this again, I don't like Wukong!" Macaque said as he blushed realising what Red Son meant.
The fire demon chuckled out before groaning, the shadow monkey instantly became worried, "Red, you okay?" he asked Red Son who nodded and clutched his chest. Macaque became more worried, "Is it the scars from last time?" the shadow monkey asked as he grabbed some bandages. Red Son shook his head and hesitantly took off his shirt. "Holy fuck! Red Son what the hell happened?!" Macaque said as he saw fresh scars on the fire demons' body. "I...well last night...I sorta did it to myself...but I don't even remember doing it but I know I did!" Red Son replied.
"Geez kid...who the hell wrapped these bandages on you?" Macaque asked as he began changing the old bandages. "The noodle boy, why?" Red Son replied as he flinched at the bandages being changed. "Well that explains it....he did a shitty job but...it's good enough" The shadow monkey said continuing with the bandages. "So...you did this to yourself, but you were like delusional and not in the right mind?" Macaque asked, he was trying to understand what Red Son meant.
"Yea...from what I remember I got up for water next thing I know I'm in pain...then there's a broken glass shard in my hand...then the noodle boy is there calming me down..." Red Son said, his voice was small and quiet. Macaque stared at him worriedly, "You're probably overworking yourself.....you need to take a break.." the shadow monkey said as he became more gentle with the bandages. "Must everything that happens to me be used to tell me to take a break..." Red Son sighed out. Macaque chuckled out, "C'mon kid you do need a break" the shadow monkey said as he ruffled Red Sons' hair.
"You're the last one to be talking about breaks to me...you look like you haven't slept in centuries" Red Son joked. "I'm so offended" Macaque said joking with him. "How about this I have a lazy day and you have a lazy day where we do nothing at all" Macaque offered, "I.....suppose that sounds nice...what about my parents..?" the fire demon said. "Don't worry kid...I'll deal with them" the shadow monkey responded as he finished with the bandages.
(With Mk) Mk let out a yawn as he stretched, he looked around for a moment, "Holy shit! Where's Red Son!?" Mk panicked as he immediately got up to look around. The noodle boy found a note and read it. "He left...that's sad..." Mk thought, "I hope he's alright.." Mk said out loud. Mk looked at the note again, "Why's there a heart..?" the noodle boy thought, as he thought about it more his face heated up, "It's just a heart he's just being friendly for my help don't over think it.." Mk said to himself as he covered his face embarrassingly.
"Guess Macaque was right about him leaving soon..." Mk said before looking at the time, "SHIT I'M GONNA BE LATE!" Mk panicked quickly getting dressed and going to the shop. "Got here just in time Mk" Pigsy said as he packed orders. "Haha yea I know" Mk chuckled out. "Unlike yesterday you came here pretty early" Tang said as he ate.

Hello again! Here's a doodle of these two ithaca brother. (Telemachus and Malachi my oc.) Malachi have pointy ears which are covered by his hair. I forgot to add his scars in his face cause I got lazy-
Yay Telemarket design! (??)
I like the trope of younger bro (tele) is taller than their older brother. (Malachi.)
Also sandal warning and Malachi being that Demonic protective brother, this is just a scenario I had listening to Little Wolf.
Bro's about to track down and murder Antinous with a le chancla. Antinous better run faster than Hermes cause Mal is gonna appear at him any minute.
Telemachus has the power of a pissed-off Malachi..
Bonus a drawing of Malachi fingers:
AAAAA TELEPHONE LOOKS SO CUTE I WANNA HUG HIM
Malachi is very creative with his threats and now I’m scared, Amphinomus is a lucky man.
also if it isn’t much to ask send asks to my sideblog @criollastar it’s where all my epic stuff is.
Ayyyy happy new year 12:19am in Sydney Australia I wish everyone a happy new year no matter where you are in the world

“We can continue in an hour” Shancai spoke up as they began walking down the halls, “You’re not in the best mood at the moment” he added in an understanding voice.
“T-Thank you…” The cameraman answered quietly as he leaned closer to the prince, who was Jay gonna tell? Nya? Wu?
“Enji wanted to be found, he clearly knew Jay was there…if he didn’t want to be found he would’ve told you sooner” Shancai spoke comfortingly as he watched Vinny stare at the ground.
“I’m scared…” The cameraman managed to squeak out as tears began rolling down his cheeks. The princes’ expression softened as they stopped walking and he stood in front of Vinny, placing his hands on his shoulder comfortingly.
“I know…” Shancai began as he tried making the cameraman look up at him, “You have every right to be scared, you don’t need to pretend with me…” he added.
“Why do you do it…?” Vinny whispered as he looked up at Shancai, his eyes glistening with tears. The prince let out a shaky breath hearing this, he hadn’t expected a question like this. There was silence for a few minutes and it was deafening as tension filled the air.
“I…” Shancai spoke as he lowered his gaze, the cameraman clearly didn’t mean to ask that question, but he did and wanted an answer. “I haven’t opened up to someone in years…last time I did was Enji…” he confessed quietly, as guilt and shame tainted with his voice and expression.
“You said you were friends before…how close were you two actually…?” Vinny hesitantly pressed on as he listened intently, while rubbing tears from his eyes.
“Close…I was closer with him than anyone, I trusted him and I lo-“ the prince cut himself out, as his voice quietened.
“Can we go to that room I told you about?” Vinny spoke up, receiving a nod from Shancai, as the cameraman began leading the way. It was a fairly long walk, Vinny hadn’t realised how much he ran after Jay till now. As they reached the room he could practically feel the princes’ guilt grow.
They both entered the room, still as dusty as before. “Why would he come in here…?” Vinny asked curiously as he looked around.
“I am…unsure…” Shancai answered, though it was a lie, but the cameraman didn’t push on as they both searched the room. Vinny noticed a picture on the ground, must’ve fell from the photo book, he grabbed it and shoved it into his pocket, he didn’t know how the prince would react.
“Can we leave…?” Shancai asked shakily , discomfort evident. The cameraman nodded as they both left, closing the door behind them.
“Sorry…for changing this up so quickly…” Vinny apologised, he felt bad, Shancai tried comforting him before, but he just flipped the whole conversation into an interrogation session.
“Hey you two!” A familiar voice called out, Kai? They both turned around, instantly changing their attitudes.
“Hey Kai!” Vinny answered as a smile, plastered its way onto his face, the fire ninja came over.
“What you two up to?” Kai questioned.
“Wandering” Shancai bluntly answered.
“Yea pretty much it, he’s also helping me fight a little” The cameraman added.
“Cool!” Kai answered, “You think one day I can spar you?” He questioned curiously.
“Unless I have a death wish, no” Vinny chuckled, causing the fire ninja to fake pout. “Anyways what are you up to?” He asked.
“On my way to the dinner hall, everyone else is going since it’s like lunch or something” Kai answered, the cameraman looked up at Shancai, they were both silently communicating. The idea of everyone being there made Vinny uneasy.
“Have you seen Jay?” Shancai spoke up.
“Uhh yea…I saw him running, though he didn’t even talk to me” Kai answered, with confusion.
“Right…” The cameraman sighed out.
“You two should come eat” The fire ninja added, Shancai was about to say something, most likely a protect, but was cut off.
“Sure” Vinny answered, causing the prince to look at him curiously.
“I’ll see you two there” Kai answered with a smile as he ran off.
“Are you sure?” Shancai asked the cameraman when Kai was out of hearing range.
“No…” Vinny whined, “Better now then later…Enji wants something from me and I won’t let the others get hurt, because I’m keeping secrets…” he added, guilt continuously gnawing at him.
“Very well…but what he told everyone?” Shancai asked.
“So be it…” the cameraman answered, “They’ll know the truth, they’ll know why I’m fucking crazy” he added as he clenched his fists and stared at the ground.
“What if they don’t ask?” Shancai questioned.
“I’ll try to push off the questions, avoid them, but if it’s more persistent then I’ll tell…” the cameraman replied, as they both began walking down the halls.
“I miss my sister…she’s better at this…” the prince sighed.
“I don’t mind…you’re good at this too, if I want more emotional talks she would be better, but right now I need someone to keep me calm…either way I enjoy talking to you about this stuff…” the cameraman answered with a smile, Shancai looked surprised for a moment.
“Thank you…” The prince spoke up as a small smile appeared on his face.
“Alright then, if Jay hasn’t told everyone and he tries asking me questions I’ll tell him later, explain everything and try making him keep it a secret” Vinny spoke as he tried reassuring himself.
“That sounds like it could work” Shancai answered, receiving a soft nod from the cameraman, “Best we be off then?” He asked, receiving another nod as they continued walking.
The two eventually made it to the dinner hall and entered, thankfully the room didn’t go silent when they saw Vinny, only Jay and Wu were quiet, and they were sitting next to each other. It would make sense for the lightning ninja to tell Wu about this. The cameraman could only hope that Garmadon doesn’t know.
“Hey you two!” Cole spoke with a smile as he signalled for them to sit down next to him. Vinny smiled in response and sat next to him, Kai was on the other side of Cole. Shancai obviously sat next to Vinny, who was trying to ignore Garmadons’ eyes that were fixated on him, with worry and curiosity.
“Where have you two been? I haven’t see you around the palace?” Nya asked as she ate.
“I’m teaching him how to fight” the prince answered, causing the group to look surprised.
“Really?” Lloyd asked curiously, receiving a confirming nod from Vinny.
“Yep, just was a bit curious, and it won’t do anyone harm if I learnt how to defend myself properly, especially in our city” the cameraman chuckled out, it wasn’t a lie, Ninjago was very dangerous and it seemed like there was a new villain every month.
“That’s cool” Cole laughed, “Hey Shancai, I’ve been wondering something” he added as he turned his attention to the prince.
“Go ahead” Shancai responded with a nod, while Vinny tried to ignore the fact that Jay was staring at him, while talking quietly to Wu.
“Would there be anyway to come back to the kingdom after we’re sent back to Ninjago?” The earth ninja asked, “It’s just this place is amazing”
“I suppose there could be a way, though it might take some time to actually make it properly” The prince answered.
“Like what?” Kai asked.
“You may have heard of it, travellers tea” Shancai spoke, receiving an understanding nod from the others. “I can ask my mother if you wish and I doubt this would be the last time we see each other” he added.
“That would be great” Wu spoke up, “Does the kingdom count as a realm?” He asked curiously.
“Not necessarily, it’s just isolated and I assume your city isn’t close” The prince answered, receiving another nod.
“Does the mirror Enji has work?” Vinny muttered, he knew it probably did, but he just wanted to confirm his suspicions, Shancai silently nodded to the cameraman.
“Hey Vinny…?” Jay spoke up, his voice full of reluctance. The cameramans’ heart dropped, try to play it off was the only thing he could do.
“Yea?” Vinny answered shakily, while the others listened intently and Shancai stared at the cameraman with worry.
“Who’s-“ Jay was cut off, by Vinny kicking his leg under the table, desperately trying to signal for him to stop. The lightning ninja looked at the cameraman looked like he was on the verge of a panic attack. “Who’s taking your place at work? You’ve been gone for awhile” he thankfully changed the topic, catching the hint.
“Not sure…” Vinny answered, as he let out a soft sigh of relief.
“Won’t you get fired?” Lloyd asked.
“Maybe, maybe not…” the cameraman spoke, “I’ve worked there for years mainly for Gayle, she’s really pushy and others don’t really stay with her, i’ve done a lot of things that would normally get me fired but didn’t” he added.
“That’s funny” Kai chuckled, “Why don’t you quit?”
“Finding a job when living in a city that gets destroyed every other month is hard” Vinny answered, receiving an understanding nod from the others.
The rest of the time was spent with making jokes and eating, nothing too serious. Eventually Shancai and Vinny left and hanged out in the halls, it wasn’t late but not early either. Afternoon.
“That went better than expected” the prince spoke to the cameraman.
“Yea…I kicked Jays’ leg under the table” Vinny answered, “And thankfully he understood what I meant and changed the topic”
“Your work life sounds interesting” Shancai confessed.
“It is…” the cameraman chuckled in response as they began strolling down the halls.
“Vinny!” A familiar voice called out, right…Jay really wanted to have that talk…the cameraman and the prince stopped turning around. Jay and Wu were coming over, so the lightning ninja definitely told Wu.
“Hey…” Vinny spoke awkwardly as he balanced on the balls of his feet, and rubbed the back on his neck, avoiding eye contact.
“An explanation would do well” Wu sighed out as he watched the cameraman slowly be eaten up by anxiousness.
“Right…” Vinny sighed out.
“I suggest somewhere more private” Shancai spoke up, receiving a nod from the others as they began walking, following the prince.
(I suggest you check out parts 1-98 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)
Morning came quickly as Vinny was once again awoken by the blinding sun, it took him a minute to realise that Nyssa was still next to him, awake as well.
“Morning…” the cameraman yawned as he stretched.
“Mornin’ sleepy head, sleep well?” She asked as she stared out the bars.
“Yea…” Vinny answered, “Best sleep I had in a while, strange though considering I killed someone yesterday”
“Exhaustion caught up to you I guess” Nyssa chuckled, “Also you’re gonna eat, I don’t care what to you, you haven’t eaten in a while”
“Alright” the cameraman sighed out, he was too tired to protest and watched her get up and go to find some food.
As Vinny looked around the cell, he saw Tenshi in the same spot as al, the others day. He really like that spot. Though the cameraman looked away, he didn’t want Tenshi think he was prying.
Once again Vinny found himself staring out at the arena. The plan had to work. If it didn’t work…well, let’s say he would have no idea of how to escape and they would all die. He was drawn out of his thoughts by Nyssa coming back and sitting back down next to him while handing him a bowl.
“Tenshi’s in a mood” she spoke up, “but whatever plan you have must be good, right?”
“Yea…if I’m right it should take us out of this place” the cameraman answered as he stared at the bowl of ‘food’.
“Well, I don’t have much hope for it” Nyssa laughed, “but it’s our only option and I trust you, anyone who has the guts to yell at grandpa over there” she added as he pointed at Tenshi.
“Thanks…” Vinny sighed out as he reluctantly ate, just as bad as he remembered.
“So it’s gonna be groups of three, the three people you’re closest too when were sent to those other cells” Nyssa said, “Like it or not, but we’re gonna have to sit with Tenshi for a while”
“It’s fine, all I can hope is that he won’t kill me” The cameraman chuckled half-heartedly as he anxiously brushed a hand through his hair.
“He won’t, like I said, he’s just a grumpy old man” Nyssa laughed as she put a hand on his back. “Up you get, it’s best we sit close to him now” she added as she standing up.
“Alright…” Vinny sighed out as he stood up and followed her.
“Don’t kill him” Nyssa spoke to Tenshi as she slumped down against the wall, the cameraman sitting next to her, trying to avoid being near Tenshi.
“Don’t have a reason to” Tenshi muttered under his breath as he very obviously rolled his eyes.
“C’mon! Have some faith in him” Nyssa said as she gently elbowed him, “It’s worth a shot either way, you’ve been here for 25 years! Anything’s worth a shot”
Vinny smiled softly, he enjoyed having someone here believe in him. Nyssa had the welcoming energy Willow, and the love of Deity with wits of Shancai.
Tenshi was only much like Shancai, quiet, brave and strong, emotions well hidden. It wasn’t something that Vinny minded, sure Tenshi was on the grumpy side, but 25 years trapped in this hellhole? He couldn’t blame Tenshi at all.
“Keep eating” Tenshi just grumbled to Nyssa, who just laughed and kept eating.
“Honestly best out come for this is that we fight near the end” Nyssa spoke up, Tenshi nodded while the cameraman looked at them with curiosity.
“Beginning is when the more entertaining ones fight, near the end is the weaker ones” Tenshi explained.
“I don’t think we’re gonna go near the end” Vinny confessed.
“Why’s that?” Nyssa asked.
“Have you seen us? We have a man who’s been here for 25 years” the cameraman explained.
“He’s right, but if your plan works and it better work then it won’t be much of a problem” Tenshi spoke up as he glared at Vinny.
“Then we’ll just have to hope his plan works” Nyssa said with a smile as she tried comforting the cameraman.
The two just nodded as they sat in silence for a few minutes, the tension was thick yet no one wanted to break. No one knew what to say.
“Let’s say we do escape…” Nyssa began, her voice soft as she rested her head against the wall, “What are we gonna do?”
Silence. Before it was broken once more.
“Find my wife and kids…” Tenshi whispered as he caught both of their attention.
“That’s sweet…I never knew you were married…” Nyssa chuckled, “You?” She asked Vinny.
“I…” the cameraman spoke, his voice quiet. He didn’t really know what to do. He wanted to find his friends, he wanted to find Garmadon. But then what? Rida was still gonna go after him. Rida wanted something from him, but what?
“You okay?” Nyssa asked, it was obvious Vinny had a lot on his mind.
“Y-yea sorry…” the cameraman answered, “I need to get back to my friends and deal with something when I’m out of here”
“What about you?” Tenshi asked Nyssa.
“Me? I don’t have much planned” she answered though it was vague.
“Family or friends?” The cameraman questioned.
“None that would particularly care, as for family there’s none” Nyssa awkwardly confessed as she rubbed the back of her neck.
“Oh” Tenshi and Vinny said in unison, it was as if they were hit by a truck.
“Well! You can stay with us, right Tenshi?” Vinny asked, he was more than welcome with Nyssa staying with him.
“I mean…sure?” Tenshi answered awkwardly.
“You don’t have to do that…” Nyssa said as she smiled softly.
“Oh please! Yes I do, so you’re staying with me when we do get out” the cameraman reassured her.
“Thanks…” Nyssa sighed out, this was nice.
The three sat there for a while before they were dropped in a cell. “Great” Vinny sighed out as he fell on the ground, he was never gone get used to that.
“Well whatever you have planned better not get us killed” Tenshi said as he got up and stared out of the cell, two different cells opened as 6 people were released.
“At least we’re not fighting first” Nyssa spoke as she tried lightening the mood.
“I guess…” the cameraman answered as he stared out the cell too, his hand reaching for his dagger in his pocket.
“Don’t fight, whatever you have to do, do it while we distract them” Nysaa spoke as she pulled Vinnys’ hand away from his pocket.
“She’s right, if you’re right with your plan it’s best you do it while we make sure you survive” Tenshi added.
“Alright…” the cameraman sighed out, protesting against them was useless and well it’s not like he wanted to piss Tenshi off more.
Slowly but surely, their gate opened. Vinny was nervous. And so was Nyssa. Tenshis’ expression was unreadable as they walked out, his hand holding onto the axe.
They were going against Tex and 2 other people, Vinny couldn’t remember anyone else and didn’t want to.
Quickly they started fighting, Vinny dodged attacks the best he could, but it was tough. One person had an arrow and was constantly shooting while the other two were close combat.
But Tenshi held them off well and it was impressive. Fighting alongside him was when Vinny could really appreciate his strength.
Nyssa was good too, defending herself with ease. Though the cameraman turned his attention, trying to find the mirror shard on the ground.
“What’s up?” Nyssa questioned as she came closer to Vinny, she was curious if he was trying to do whatever he was planning.
“Trying to find something…” the cameraman answered as Nyssa continued defending herself.
“Take as long as you need!” Tenshi hissed as he tightened his grip on the axe before swinging it, a sickening shriek as a hand fell to the ground.
Vinny ignored it the best he could as he continued scanning the area, thought he sound of grunting and weapons clashing against each other was quite distracting. His eyes caught on a shine, across the whole arena, perfect…right past the enemies.
“Nyssa!” The cameraman called out, she snapped her head towards him. “I need you to cover me!”
“Where to?” She questioned, Vinny pointed the way and she just nodded.
“Tenshi! Help me cover him!” She called out, a nod from him as well as he came closer.
“Be quick” Tenshi said to Vinny.
“I’ll try!” Vinny awkwardly chuckled as he ran out, arrows flew by, but they were knocked away by Nyssa while people were kept away from Vinny.
The cameraman ran, faster than ever. He ignored everything around him and just fixated on the stupid piece of mirror that could be his way out of here.
As an arrow almost hit him, he lunged forward towards the ground, dodging it and grabbing the shard off the ground. He took a deep breath. He wasn’t dead, yay.
Staring at the shard, he got back up and stared at Nyssa and Tenshi who were looking at him with curiosity. Vinny ran to them again, trying his best and managed to dodge attacks again.
“Vinny what-?” Nyssa was cut off by her arm and Tenshis’ arm being grabbed by Vinny as he ran dragging them along.
“Just run around, I need to fix this!” The cameraman answered as he stared at the mirror shard, reluctantly the two listened following him and still managed to fight back.
Best thing would be if they were taken to the monastery, Ivory Kingdom or his apartment. Any would be good. He didn’t mind going anywhere. He just wanted out of here.
“Hold onto me!” Vinny said, the two listened and grabbed Vinnys’ arm as he threw the mirror shard in the air, he was just copying what Enji always did.
The mirror shard came back down, instead of hitting them in the head, they were instead engulfed by it and dropped into a house. The three laid on their backs as they just blinked, the mirror shard on their ground.
Slowly, but surely Vinny sat up and looked around. He was at his apartment. “Yes! Fuck yes!” The cameraman shouted as he got off the ground and slumped down on the couch.
Nyssa and Tenshi laid on the ground for a while before Nyssa got up first. “Where…are we?” She asked, cautiously as she looked around.
“My apartment! And I told you it would work!” The cameraman answered happily, he had never been so relieved before.
“So we’re…free?” She questioned, Vinny nodded and pulled her down to sit on the couch. “Wow…” she whispered as she looked at the roof.
“You ok?” Vinny asked her.
“Y-yea…I don’t know to process this!” She chuckled.
“What about you?” The cameraman asked Tenshi, who was still laid on his back on the ground, staring at the ceiling.
“I don’t know…” Tenshi whispered.
“C’mon! Get up, this couch is soft!” Nyssa laughed out as she pulled Tenshi up and onto the couch.
“I’m not as dumb as I look” Vinny chuckled to the two.
“Clearly!” Nyssa laughed as she ruffled his hair, thought Wh two were distracted by Tenshi standing up and going out to the balcony. It was midday, the sun was gonna set soon.
Nyssa and Vinny exchanged looks, they hadn’t been stuck in that hellhole for as long as Tenshi…they couldn’t possibly imagine what he was feeling…
The two stood up and stood on both sides of Tenshi, wind hitting against their faces. It was the best feeling.
“I told you I would get us out, I meant it…you’ve been trapped there long enough…” Vinny said softly as he tried comforting Tenshi. “You were right to doubt me though, it was a stupid plan…”
“A stupid plan indeed! But it worked and we’re free!” Nyssa sighed out.
“Pinch me…” Tenshi spoke up, the two looked confused, before Nyssa pinched him.
“It’s not a dream…we’re free” Nysaa said softly.
“Yea, and none of us will ever get stuck b-“ Vinny was cut off by two arms wrapping around him and hugging him.
“Thank you…” Tenshi whispered as he hugged the cameraman tightly.
Vinny stood there for a moment before returning the hug, “No problem…” he whispered.
“I want a hug” Nyssa spoke, the two laughed and hugged her two.
“What now?” Nyssa asked as she smiled at them.
“Right now? We’re all gonna shower and then eat” the cameraman answered, Tenshi laughed out.
“I suppose we all are due for a good shower” he sighed out.
“I think I can find some spare clothes for you two, just for the timing being in case you want to wear your old ones, I’ll wash them” Vinny said, receiving a nod from Nysaa.
“I don’t have much clothes either way, these are long over due to be thrown out” Tenshi sighed out.
“You wanna cut your hair?” Vinny asked him.
“A brush is fine, I’m better off detangling it” Tenshi answered.
“How so?” Nyssa laughed, as they followed Vinny who went back inside the apartment.
“Wouldn’t you like to know” Tenshi answered.
“You two decide who’s showering first, I have things I need to do” the cameraman spoke up as he sat on the chair near the kitchen bench.
Tenshi and Nyssa decided that she would go first, she’d be finished quicker.
Vinny had a lot on his mind, Rida was bothering him. “Calm down kid, you need a break…you got us out of that place” Tenshi spoke up as he sat next to him.
“I know…but Rida won’t leave us alone right?” The cameraman answered.
“Yea…” Tenshi sighed out, “But, that can be a tomorrow problem, I shouldn’t have doubted you…”
“It’s not your fault, it was a stupid thing” Vinny sighed, “Some random person shows up and says he has a plan to get out of here, that sounds stupid”
“I guess it does” Tenshi chuckled, “But thanks…it’s nice you got Nyssa out of there, she’s young…doesn’t deserve to rot in there like me…”
“She’s nice, and you didn’t deserve to stay in that place either…” Vinny said as he smiled softly, Tenshi just hummed in response. “Go sleep on the couch if you want, I’ll wake you up when she finishes”
“Alright” Tenshi sighed as he got up, “Thanks again” he repeated as he patted Vinnys’ back before laying on the couch.
This was nice…he was free, he had more friends and he wasn’t alone all the time…he still missed Garmadon…is that how Tenshi felt? 25 years away from his wife? The thought caused guilt to formed in Vinnys’ stomach…

(With Vinny)
The cameraman shivered as he felt the smaller snakes climbed onto him and licked his skin. “Now now…how are you in the palace? I’ve never sssseen you before?” Rushifa spoke as she grabbed a decayed corpse off the ground and tore off its arm before biting into it. Vinny felt like he was gonna be sick, if the smell wasn’t enough seeing that definitely would.
“I-I j-just me and my f-friends-“ Vinny was stuttering like crazy as he held back a gag. He hated it here, he hated everything at the moment…
“Oh you’re even more fun than I thought” Rushifa laughed out sadistically as she allowed a snake crawl up to her ear? Ear holes? Whatever snakes have. Vinny watched as it hissed into her ears, seemingly telling her something. She pulled her veil down before getting really up close with Vinny.
The cameraman was caught off guard by her appearance, she was blind? A scar across her whole face, while her fangs were sharp like daggers, that could pierce through the air. “Your friendssss are coming!” She says to him as her tail squeezes around choking the air out of his lungs while her stinger threatened to pierce his cheek.
“W-what?” Vinny asked worriedly, they couldn’t be here, maybe Willow and Shancai knew how to fight this snake. Rushifa took another bite of the torn arm, her teeth sinking into its rotting flesh before she threw it against the ground allowing the smaller snakes to go after it and satiate their hunger.
“You heard me” She circled around him, “Your ninja friendsss and SSShancai along with that inssssuferable Willow are here! In my domain” She giggled, her voice darkened when talking about Willow, she didn’t seem to like her, “But no worriesss! I’ll deal with them” she hissed, before throwing her veil back on.
“S-Say! We haven’t had proper introductions, w-why don’t we ask some questions about each other?” Vinny asked as he tried to squirm out, but failed miserably due to the tail wrapped tightly.
“Rida wasss right about you, you sssure care about your friendssss” she hissed as she slithered down to a rotting tree stump and sat against it, her tail grip on Vinny loosening ever so slightly, “I suppossse you can ask some questions” she added, as she put her hand up signalling for him to continue, her nails were sharp they were more like claws…
“Uhh r-right…h-how do you know Rida…?” The cameraman hesitantly asked as he took a deep breathe of relief as her grip loosened.
“Me and Rida both dissslike the kingdom, we are not friendsss neither acquaintancesss he asksss for the occasional favour, I decide if I listen or not” Rushifa spoke as she allowed the smaller snakes to climb onto her and wrap around her neck.
“S-so neutral terms?” Vinny asked, receiving a nod from the snake.
“Now I have a question for you” She began, Vinny hesitantly nodded in agreement allowing her to continue. “Why does Rida have his eyess set on you?” She questioned, as she stood up again and circled around him, stopped behind him.
“I…I don’t now…” Vinny sighed before taking a sharp breathe as he felt a sharp claw press against the back on his neck.
“Are you sssure?” She questioned once more as she rested her head on Vinnys’ shoulder while wrapped one hand around his neck.
What the actual fuck was going one? Was all that was going through Vinnys’ mind, he hated being touched like this, “Y-yes…” he shakily responded as he tried to pull away from her touch, knowing very well it was futile. He wanted to kill himself the moment he felt her hand on his thigh…he met some random fucking snake lady in the forest and was now being harassed, who has this happened too before?!
“Don’t be shy” she whispered into his ear, “You were an easy one to convince to come here” she added, as she turned Vinnys’ face to a lifeless body on the ground..the exact body of the servant he spoke to before. Vinny felt disgusted more specifically at himself, why couldn’t stop her? Why was he so weak!?
“L-let me go…” Vinny whimpered out, it wasn’t an order but a plea, he hated being touched like this.
“What would Garamadon think if he found you like thisss?” She asked her voice feigning with mock empathy, Vinnys’ heart ached at the thought of Garmadon, she was right, what would he think? Would he be mad? Disgusted?
He didn’t want anyone else see him like this…he wanted to curl into a ball and die, she chuckled before reached towards the ground and tearing a piece of flesh of a body and pressing is against Vinnys’ mouth, “Eat it” she ordered, Vinnys’ heart dropped and his stomach twisted…he kinda missed Enji right now…
“W-what?” The cameraman managed to whimper our shakily, as he tried pulling his head away from the flesh being pressured to him, surely she must be joking? There was no way he would eat that…or so he thought…
“You heard me, eat it” she repeated her tone harsher as her hand entangled in Vinnys’ head keeping him in place and unable to turn away from the food?
“I-I can’t t-there’s h-how-“ The cameraman began stuttering again, he felt light-headed, where were the others? He couldn’t careless if they saw him like this…he wanted to leave he wanted to be free…
“You will eat it, whether you like it or not” She repeated, as she continued to pressure Vinny. “Eat it…and you and your friendsss may be able to leave somewhat unscathed”
Vinnys’ heart ached hearing that, he wanted to protect them, but what if she was lying? “S-swear?” He asked shakily, “Swear we’ll all leave a-alive? Hardly injured?” He added, desperate for an answer.
“I’ll hardly hurt them…I’ll attack if they attack firssst and have a little fun, but their injuriesss will be none too harsh, but a ssscratch of sssome sortsss” she answered, Vinny let out a shaky breathe as he turned his attention to the piece of flesh in front of him…what it worth it…?
“I-I…” the cameraman stuttered, out a snake hissed something into Rushifas’ ear.
“Time isss ticking, your friendsss are closse” She says to him as she pushes the flesh closer to his mouth, Vinny wanted to vomit, everything here was revolting.
“C-can’t I get s-sick?” He stuttered out.
“We’ll just have to sssee, I’ve done thisss to a certain someone nod she isn’t ill” Rushifa responded as she laughed softly, “Now eat” she hissed harsher than before, the grip of her tail loosened now Vinny was able to move his hands.
Tears welled in Vinnys’ eyes as he shut them tightly before opening his mouth slightly, Rushifa let out a sadistic chuckle before placing it in his mouth. It was disgusting…the coppery taste of the blood mixed with the salty tears of his, he held back a gag, “Chew” she ordered, “And make sure to swallow” she added in a playful tone.
He whimpered as he chewed, he wanted to throw up, he wanted to wash him out out. Eventually Vinny forced himself to swallow, before she fully released him from her tail, he dropped to the ground and sobbed staring at the ground, hoping he didn’t do this for nothing.
A small flicker of hoped burned in his chest as he heard soft muttering of a group of people in the forest and Rushifa noticed it too, staring a Vinny before lifting up his chin, “Best you smile for them” she says to him before planting a kiss on his cheek…that worsened Vinnys’ sickness as he tried rubbing away his tears…no one needed to know what he did…
Rushifa used the smaller snakes to hold Vinny down as she hid in the shadows. He didn’t fight back, he was tired and weak…his eyes widened as he saw Shancai and Willows’ figure followed by the rest of the group, their eyes instantly widened as they saw Vinny as they ran over and tried pulling the snakes away. “Shit! Are you alright?!” Willow asked with worry as she controlled the vines to throw the snakes all away,
“I-I’m fine…” Vinny answered, his voice was hoarse, it was an obvious lie…they all could tell, he was weak and shaky. The cameraman was helped up, everyone looked worried out of their mind, but he was drawn out of his thought, by a demonic echoey laugh, right…Rushifa was still here.
Willows’ eyes widened and she growled in annoyance, she didn’t seem to like Rushifa as much as Rushifa hated her. They all were on guard as they stared around. “She uses the smaller snakes to see us…” Willow spoke to them all, receiving a nod from the others as they drew their swords.
Vinny was surprised…because the moment no one payed attention, Garmadon pulled him as close as possible, Vinny looked up at him, he was so much more worried than the others…his heart ached…
“You made quite a bit of friendsss Willow” Rushifa spoke as she hanged from a tree branch using her tail, the nature elemental was about to attack, but was held back by her brother, “Sssoooo sssnappy”
Rushifa attacked first, hitting Jay with her stinger and falling into Nya’s arms. The rest of the ninja fought back, while Nya stayed with Jay who was slowly using his body function. Willow went over to the two before creating a berry, “Eat it” she spoke as she handed it to him, the lightning ninja did as told and his function was given back.
Vinny was just standing there, Garmadon was just standing in front of him…protecting him…his mind was numb…he couldn’t get rid of the coppery taste in his mouth, but he was drawn out of his thoughts by a loud hiss as Kai slashed his sword against Rushifas’ face tearing the veil and scarring her across her eyes…she was definitely gonna have another scar.
The group watched as the snake retreated into the trees followed by smaller snakes. As they determined she was gone they focused their attention on Vinny. “You sure you’re okay? She didn’t hit you with her stinger?” Shancai questioned.
“Yea…” Vinny responded his voice was monotone and his expression was blank, other than the slightly puffy eyes. The others noticed this, and it seemed to pain Willow the most. Willow began walking one way followed by everyone, he remained quiet he felt like if he spoke he would burst out in tears and throw up.
“Why’d you go here?” Zane asked, everyone looked just as curious.
“Some lying bitch convinced” Vinny grumbled, his tone was filled with hate, everyone seemed surprised by his tone, “I wasn’t going to! But then there were fucking wolves and I had no where else to fucking go!” He hissed, his anger was directed at himself.
“Are you sure you’re alright…?” Lloyd asked as they went back on the path, Willow waited till everyone got out and sealed that part of the forest again.
“I’m fucking fine…” Vinny answered as he walked past them trying to get back into the palace.
“Vinny seriously…what happened?” Nya asked, desperate for a proper answer.
“Nothing fucking happened! Drop it!” He hissed as tears began to well in his eyes again, they were caught off guard by his harsh tone and watched him walk into the palace leaving them jaw dropped.
“Show someone go after him?” Jay asked.
“No…he needs to be alone…” Willow sighed out as she rubbed her temples, the group nodded and slowly dispersed.
Vinny entered his room and fucking ran to the bathroom, he dropped to his knees in front of the toilet and almost immediately threw up, it was so relieving…he felt guilty for snapping at Nya, but they wouldn’t blame him if they found out what he did. He continued to throw up gagging and crying to himself.
Who the hell did he piss off for this to happen?
(I don’t know what Vinny did to deserve me to do this)

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…
