(I suggest you go check out part 1-7 if you haven’t already before reading this and if you could can you check out my other book❤️)

Garmadon woke up to a knock on the bedroom door he was honestly top tired to get up and answer it so he just stayed there and he would probably wake Vinny up if he tried moving. Garmadon lied in bed as the knocking continued. Eventually the knocking stopped and the door opened slightly, it was Zane. The ice ninja stared at him, “My apologies for waking you up, but I came to inform you that breakfast is ready”Zane said. Garmadon nodded and with that Zane left.

He sat up the turned to Vinny who was still fast asleep, Garmadon gently nudged Vinny trying to wake him up, this just caused him to roll over and pull the blanket over his head. “Vinny..wake up…aren’t you hungry~?”Garmadon said out in a soothing tone. “Mmm…no..”Vinny mumbled causing the larger to sigh out. “Alright…I’m hungry so I’ll eat then come back okay?”Garmadon said out in defeat. Vinny sat up then gave his lover a kiss before retreating back into the abyss of blankets. Garmadon chuckled before getting up and going to eat.

“Nice of you to join us brother”Wu said as his brother sat down. “Where’s Vinny?”Kai asked curious as to where he was, “He’s sleeping, tried waking him up but he ignored me”Garmadon replied, he wouldn’t have responded if it wasn’t a question about Vinny and he was honestly in a good mood. “Still sleeping?Wow, that’s surprising, I thought he fell asleep while Lloyd was in the middle of training and he’s still tired I wish we could do that”Jay laughed, Garmadon stared at him for a moment, “Usually when he doesn’t go to work he wakes up at 2 in the afternoon and tries to get as much sleep”He continued, the others stared at Garmadon surprisingly, “Wow he’s lucky, Master Wu would never let us sleep for that long”Cole said causing Wu to sigh While Lloyd was contemplating his life choices and how well his father gets along with Vinny.

The whole time they ate was making jokes or asking Garmadon questions which most had answers and others didn’t. “I think it is best you take some food for Vinny when you go back” Zane said to Garmadon which Wu agreed to. Garmadon finished eating then went back to Vinny with a plate of whatever food. He carefully walked in and gave Christofern a splash of water then sat on the bed. “Vinny..l got some food for you to eat”Garmadon spoke calmly. Vinny carefully peeked from under the covers, “I told you I wasn’t hungry?”Vinny replied, Garmadon nodded, “Isn’t better to eat now and sleep more?”The larger responded even though he knew the smaller was hungry and was just too tired to get up. Vinny sat up then smiled at Garmadon before giving him another soft kiss. “I’m pretty sure the ninja like you, they were quite curious to where you were”the larger spoke to Vinny as he ate. “I told them how you like waking up late when you don’t have work and honestly they asked a bunch of questions it was overwhelming”he continued earning a soft giggle from Vinny.

Garmadon continued to tell Vinny about what the others were asking and how it was. The smaller eventually finished eating then sat on the largers’ lap before showering him in kisses. This made Garmadons’ cheeks bright purple as he blushed. “Stop it..”Garmadon mumbled out embarrassingly. “Aww why should I? I love it when you’re embarrassed”Vinny giggled out causing Garmadon to hide his face in Vinnys’ chest. “I’m sorry am I interrupting something…?”Nya said as she was standing at the door. The two immediately turned toward her both of them blushing harshly. “Y-you saw nothing!”Vinny stuttered out earning a chuckle, “Relax I could’ve sworn there was something going on between you two than just being roommates and relax I won’t tell anyone” Nya laughed grabbing the empty plate from the bedside table. “You two do make a good couple”she added smiling at the two well mostly Vinny because Garmadon had his face hidden in Vinnys’ chest again. “I-is it really that obvious?”Vinny stuttered out embarrassingly, Nya nodded, “If anyone has caught on its probably Zane or Master Wu they probably just don’t talk about”She said, “And anyway I was gonna tell you that Master Wu wanted to speak with Garmadon and Vinny I have so many questions for as long as it’s okay with you”Nya said which Vinny nodded to. “Bye”She said as she left.

“That was so embarrassing..”Vinny said to Garmadon staring down as him. “Yes…yes it was…”He responded. “Relax she said she wasn’t telling anyone and I trust her enough”Vinny said comforting his lover. “Anyway you should go see your brother”Vinny said as Garmadon got up placing a kiss on Vinnys’ forehead before leaving.

Overwhelmed(Vinny x Garmadon) Part 97

(I suggest you check out parts 1-96 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)

(With Deity)

Deity paced around her bedroom. It had been 2 days since Vinny went missing and safe to say everyone was worried out of their minds. Shancais’ reaction to coming back from patrol and finding out he was missing was as expected, he was worried and immediately offered to go back and see if the cameraman was in the kingdom.

Willows’ reaction however was more than she anticipated, “He’s what?!”. Those words rung in Deitys’ head, they were all worried. She hated this. She wanted him to be safe. Enji didn’t seem to know where Vinny was. Perhaps Rida did? It’s not like she could ask him, Rida despised her.

She let out an exasperated sigh and she fell to her knees and rested her head on the windowsill. She was tired. But she couldn’t sleep. Not now. Vinnys’ disappearance was all too similar to her husbands’ and it ached her heart.

Perhaps if she sent the ninja back to their city and have them check around there? There was a chance Vinny somehow could’ve accidentally found a way back to Ninjago. It was smart, she could be in contact with them and they could have regular updates with the travellers tea.

Deity was snapped out of her thoughts by a soft knock at her door, “Come in!” She called out tiredly as she stood up and dusted off her clothes. The door opened and her expression softened, Garmadon. She knew the pain of losing a lover like this and could feel the pain his soul bared.

“Is everything alright?” Deity spoke up softly as she rubbed her temples, staring out the window.

“Where could he have gone?” The oni asked, his voice quiet as he shut the door and walked over to her.

“I am…unsure” Deity confessed, “However, there is a chance that the way you all ended up here might’ve sent him back somehow” she added, trying to ease Garmadons’ worries.

“Where would he be? Back in Ninjago? Or could it have possibly sent him to another realm” Garmadon sighed, he was definitely overthinking this.

“Most likely Ninjago…” Deity spoke, “Also I’m able to send you all back there now…it would be better if you all look around your city while we search around here for clues”

“I suppose that would work best” The oni sighed, unable to hide the worry that tainted with his voice.

“We’ll find him…” She spoke, attempting to comfort him.

“I hope” Garmadon whispered, “Would it do well for us all to leave now?”

“If you wish to search longer, it would be more convenient to leave now” Deity answered with a soft smile.

“Very well…I’ll go see my brother” Garmadon spoke, as he gave her a soft nod before leaving. Deity watched him leave and let out a sigh, best she prepare the travellers tea.

Garmadon walked down the halls, expecting to find his brother in the library of the palace. The palace did have some peculiar scrolls. As the oni entered the library he found Wu seated, engrossed in a scroll. “Brother? Is everything alright?” Wu asked as he looked up.

“We can leave the kingdom…Deity said there’s a chance that the way we got here might’ve taken Vinny back to Ninjago” Garmadon explained. “Though we’ll remain in contact with them”

“I suppose it’s best we leave, I’ll go and tell the ninja” Wu answered as he put a scroll back before getting up. The oni nodded at his brother and watched him walk off. Garmadon walked a separate way, not to his room, but to Vinnys’ room. Maybe there was something he could find.

Garmadons’ hands landed on the doorknob, he had checked here before, countless of times, hoping there would be some hint as to where Vinny was. As the oni gently opened the door with a creak, he let out a shaky sigh. The room was dark as expected, the lights were always off.

The oni began looking around, there had to be something, anything! It was the same result as the other 10 visits over the past 2 days. Nothing. All of this was useless. Vinny just vanished into thin air!

Garmadon groaned in annoyance as he rubbed his temples, clenching his fists as he punched the wall, a purple flame forming around him. He let out a sigh as he control himself, anger wasn’t the best at the moment and destroying the palace wouldn’t help either.

He should’ve pressed on with Vinny, maybe, just maybe then would he have some hint as to where he went. But no…this is what he gets for respected peoples’ choices.

The oni rubbed his temples before sitting on the bed and resting his head in his hands. He was gonna find Vinny. He kept telling himself that. He didn’t know what he would do if something bad happened to Vinny. What if he was k-

Garmadon shook his head, he really shouldn’t be thinking about that. Vinny was alive and they were going to find him. He repeated that in his head as he fidgeted with his hands. He was snapped out of his thoughts by clattering from the bathroom.

The onis’ eyes widened as he quietly stood up and walked towards the bathroom, there was a chance it was Vinny. And a chance it being some random stranger. Garmadon hesitantly peeked in and saw a man going through the drawers. He recognised this man as the one the ninja had to fight in the catacombs.

The oni snarled as he slammed the door opened and grabbed the man by the collar, and pinning him to the wall. A wince of pain was heard from the man, he was clearly caught off guard. “A-asshole!” The man hissed out as he rubbed the back of his head.

“What did you do with him?” Garmadon growled, he was fully ready to gut the man right there and then.

“Do with who!?” The man hissed as he tried escaping Garmadons’ grasp.

“Don’t play dumb” The oni snarled, the man paused for a minute trying to think.

“Ohhhh!” The man eventually spoke up, “Your little boyfriend? I don’t have anything to do with him!” He laughed out.

Garmadon growled in annoyance, he was so close to digging his claws into this mans’ throat and tearing out his esophagus. However he didn’t have the chance as he heard someone behind him. He turned his head slightly and saw the prince.

Shancai was shocked when he saw this sight, Enji, his lov- I mean enemy was here and judging by the sight Garmadon was about to kill him. “What’re doing here?” The prince spoke as he walked over to the two, silently coercing the oni to release him.

“I left my chain here” Enji grumbled as he dusted himself off when he was released. “And I swear on my life I have nothing to do with his disappearance!”

“How can we trust you?” Garmadon snarled, resisting the urge to lunge at him. “And how do you two know each other?”

“Enemies” Shancai explained.

“Enemies? I’m hurt Shanni!” Enji sighed out dramatically, causing the prince to roll his eyes.

“Don’t care and he’s right…how can we trust you?” Shancai repeated Garmadons’ question.

“Shanni you know me! I don’t stoop as low as to kidnap someone like that” Enji sighed out.

“Why were you up in Ninjago?” Garmadon asked.

“Pretty obvious, had to get something. Enough questions though! I mean it, I don’t have anything to do with his disappearance but…” Enjis’ words trailed off as he fidgeted with his hair.

“But?” Garmadon snarled clearly wanting an answer.

“I’m not sure about Rida…I’m friends with him, but he won’t tell me everything…” Enji sighed out, receiving a confused look from the oni and a nod from the prince.

“And! This won’t be the last time we’re meeting!” Enji laughed out to Garmadon, before running back into the bedroom and jumping out the window. Garmadon and Shancai followed him and stared out the window. Enji was gone. Shancai knew why of course, enchanted mirror. Garmadon though was really fucking confused.

“Who’s he?” The oni asked the prince.

“Enji…and enemy of the kingdom, insufferable…but not heartless” Shancai answered as he stared out the window, “He speaks the truth…he wouldn’t go out of his way to kidnap someone like that”

“And the other person he mentioned?” Garmadon asked once more.

“Rida, he’s…more likely to do something like that” The prince sighed, “He’s heartless…he enjoys making his prey suffer…”

Garmadon let out an exasperated sigh, “I can deal with them some other time…I need to get back to the city and find Vinny…” he spoke up, receiving a nod from the prince.

“My mother is ready for that and so are your friends” Shancai spoke, the oni nodded in response and the two began making their way. But not before Garmadon took one last glance at the room.

“I do believe we’ll find him…and hardly injured” Shancai spoke as they walked down the halls. “He’s smart, he’ll find a way to get back”

“I know…one the day he disappeared, I saw you two training for a bit” Garmadon began, he wanted to ask about the hallucinations Vinny had before that caused him to attack Shancai. The prince seemed to see where this question was going as he let out a sigh.

“Hallucinations were what we thought at the time…however it was Enji” Shancai spoke, causing Garmadon to look at him in shock, “Enji’s the elemental master of illusion…he used it for the worse, sometimes the better though”

Garmadon remained quiet, on the day where Enji attacked the ninja in the catacombs, Vinny had been the one to suggest that Enjis’ powers were like an illusion. Did Vinny know this man? Was Enji the cause for all these problems?

“We’re here” the prince spoke up, snapping the oni from his thoughts as he entered Deitys’ room. As expect all the ninja were there and so were Willow, who had wanted to say goodbye too and Deity obviously.

“So we’re remaining in contact to find him?” Lloyd spoke to Deity, who nodded in response.

“That’s good…” Nya sighed.

“We’ll find him, I’m sure of it” Deity spoke as he allowed the steam of the travellers tea to float in the air to make a portal.

“Well whoever took him I’m gonna kill them” Willow spoke with a smile as she hugged Nya, they had bonded over making fun of that picture with Shancai and Vinny were sleeping and wearing makeup, more so in a sibling way obviously.

Garmadon remained quiet, he didn’t know what to say. He was worried, angry, and sad…he hated it. He should’ve protected Vinny more. He couldn’t remember anything else that had happened there, he didn’t want to remember. They were back in Ninjago, thankfully in the monastery.

“Home!” Kai sighed out in slight relief as he rushed to his bedroom, Jay and Cole following close behind as they went to their own rooms. Pixal and Zane went their own way though, leaving Lloyd, Wu and Garmadon outside.

“Da-“ Lloyd began but was cut off.

“I’m gonna rest” Garmadon spoke as he just walked off inside, Lloyd wanted to go after him, but Wu held him back.

“He needs to be alone” Wu sighed to his nephew softly, Lloyd nodded softly letting out a sigh.

Garmadon entered his room, not the room that he had when he was giving Vinny space, but the room that they first shared together when they first came here. He felt so much closer to Vinny, he missed him.

The oni crashed onto the bed, letting out an annoyed groan. He wanted to destroy something, but chose against it and laid on the bed for a while before he eventually passed out.

Where could you be Vinny…?

Overwhelmed(Vinny x Garmadon)Part 100

(I suggest you check out parts 1-99 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)

Vinny bounced his leg anxiously as he brushed a hand through his hair, he looked back at Tenshi, who was still laying on the couch. It made the cameraman smile, it was nice Tenshi was free. He deserved it.

Though Vinny was torn out of his thoughts by Nyssa coming out, wearing a spare white shirt and shorts, she had her old clothes in her hands. “That was the best thing ever!” She spoke up, her eyes shone with happiness as he fixed her hair.

“Nice you enjoyed it” The cameraman chuckled, as he put a hold to his leg bouncing, he didn’t need anyone noticing that.

Vinny got up and went to the fridge pulling out three cold bottles of water, “Here you go” he said as he threw one to Tenshi, then one to Nyssa. “Figured we all need something refreshing” he chuckled as he opened a bottle and drank from it as he sat back down.

“Thanks…I forgot how much I enjoyed freedom” Nyssa whined as she slumped back down on the couch next to Tenshi, who was now sat up, and drinking water.

“Is it that good?” Tenshi questioned as he stretched.

“Even better!” Nyssa replied with a large smile as she drank water and looked over at Vinny, though her expression was somber. Was something wrong?

“You should go now” the cameraman spoke to Tenshi, who nodded as he got up. “You wanna deal with that?” He added as he pointed to Tenshis’ very unkept beard.

“I suppose so” Tenshi answered as he rubbed his chin.

“Should be a razor is the drawer” The cameraman answered, Tenshi nodded as he headed for the bathroom. “Take as long as you need! Once you’re out I’ll order us food!”

“Sounds good!” Tenshi called out as he shut the bathroom door.

“Food sounds amazing” Nyssa confessed as she melted back into the couch, she clearly was happy at the thought of different food.

“Makes sense! I can’t imagine surviving a week eating whatever food that was, how’d you last for 2 years? How did Tenshi last for 25 years?” Vinny laughed out as he unclasped his cloak and put it on the edge of the couch, before doing the same with his arm bracers.

“I don’t know either! But can you imagine how Tenshi looks without a beard?” She questioned with a laugh. “And what do I do with these?” Sen asked once more as she held up her old clothes.

“No idea! But probably better, than now” the cameraman answered as he walked over, “And I’ll go wash those” He added as he took her old clothes.

“Thanks” Nyssa sighed as she walked him go to a different room and came back empty handed.

“Wanna watch something?” Vinny questioned as he slumped back down on the couch next to her.

“Yes! I haven’t watched it in so long!” Nyssa answered almost immediately.

“Figured” the cameraman chuckled as he turned on the tv and went to a random channel.

Nyssa watched eagerly, she just seemed happy that she could do things she couldn’t while she was trapped.

Vinny sat there, watching in silence, his mind still consumed by overwhelming thoughts of what Rida was planning. His leg started bouncing again as he tapped his finger against the couch.

Rida was probably looking for them. He was probably always watching. They weren’t safe. Not here. Not anywhere. Though Rida probably didn’t know where they went. But he knew where Vinny would go.

The cameraman was stressed, tired and hungry. He was gonna go to the monastery tomorrow and hope the others were back. Then if they could, he would find a way to the kingdom. He had to talk to Deity. Vinny buried his face in his hands and groaned.

Someone had to know why Rida was trapping people, it couldn’t just be some sick source of entertainment. Deity probably knew the most, or maybe Enji? Speaking of Enji, did he know about this? Was he sort of this? Was-

Vinny let out a squeak as he felt a hand on his shoulder. “You okay?” Nyssa questioned softly, her face painted with worry as she stared at him.

“Y-yea, why do ask?” The cameraman answered with a soft smile, as he sat up straight and stilled his leg.

“Seriously?” Nyssa chuckled, “It’s obvious, what’s on your mind?” She questioned as she put a hand on his back.

“Do you know a guy named Enji?” The cameraman asked, he had to know if Enji played some in this.

“Enji? Never heard of him, why?” Nyssa answered.

“He works with Rida…I just don’t know if he’s involved with us being trapped” Vinny spoke with a soft sighed as he anxiously brushed a hand through his hair.

“Weird, never heard of him” Nyssa said, “We can ask Tenshi, he knows a lot”

“Alright…” the cameraman whispered as he leaned back against the couch.

“Hey, c’mon…relax a little, I know you’re worried” Nyssa whispered, “But loosen up, you need a break…and you deserve a break…” she added softly.

“You sound like Tenshi…” Vinny painfully chuckled as he rubbed his eyes, he had very obvious eye bags. “I’m gonna order food now…get it in time for when Tenshi finishes…any requests?”

“Uhhh…chicken! And sushi!” Nyssa answered with a large smile, the cameraman smiled softly and nodded before getting up and going to the landline. Every house had a landline at this point, with all the problems, it was safer this way.

“I need to get a new phone” Vinny whispered to himself, it was just then he realised he lost his phone ages ago.

“What’s up?” Nyssa questioned, hearing his mumbling.

“Nothing, just trying to remember something…also, what do you think about getting a phone?” The cameraman asked her, hearing tried his best to not sound like he was asking a teenager if they wanted a phone, but it didn’t work.

“Not now, we both have more issues than phones at this time and I think with whatever Rida might be planning, it might break before I get to properly use it” Nyssa laughed out as she fixed her hair.

Vinny just nodded before going back to the landline, he ordered the food, but didn’t sit on the couch and just went back to sit on the chair near the kitchen counter.

The cameraman grabbed a paper and pen from a rack of books. He began writing names, Deity, Willow and Shancai friends. Rida, enemy. Enji, enemy? Friend? None.

The bathroom door opened as Tenshi came out, same outfit as Nyssa, white shirt and shorts. A clean shaven face and long, curly, untangled hair.

“Oh wow! Someone’s looking fresh!” Nyssa laughed out, it was true. Tenshi suddenly didn’t look like he’s been trapped for 25 years.

“She’s right, you don’t look like a trapped homeless man” The cameraman laughed out, as Tenshi walked over and sat on the couch.

“Well I no longer feel like it either” Tenshi chuckled softly as he brushed a hand through his hair. “And you were right, that was the best thing ever” he added as he looked at Nyssa.

“I told you!” Nyssa said happily as she looked back at Vinny. “I will never be able to thank you enough”

“Like I said, it’s fine” the cameraman answered, “You both deserved freedom and that place was hell”

“Fine my ass” Tenshi joked as he playfully rolled his eyes, he was so much more livelier than when he was trapped.

“Vinny ordered food” Nyssa told Tenshi, who just nodded. “I can’t wait to eat! I never want to taste that food again, also because you were gonna starve yourself instead of eat it” she added as she looked at Vinny with as teasing smile.

“It was disgusting!” The cameraman whined.

“Yes it was…” Tenshi sighed out.

“You should go shower” Nyssa told Vinny.

“Later, after we eat” The cameraman answered with a weak smile, his body ached. He had no energy to move. Yet he couldn’t sleep even if he wanted to. Fearful thoughts of what Rida could be planning, plagued his mind and tormented him.

“You sure? I’m sure if the food comes we can get it” Tenshi joked softly.

“Yep” Vinny answered with a soft nod.

“Alright then! We’ll make sure you do it later” Nyssa said as she stretched back and stared back at the tv.

The cameraman smiled to himself softly as he watched Tenshi look at the tv as well, this was nice.

“Hey, Tenshi…Vinny said that there was this guy named Enji that worked with Rida” Nyssa spoke up, “You heard of him before?” She continued, as Tenshi looked at her.

“Enji…no, never heard of him” Tenshi answered as he thought, “As far as I knew Rida worked alone”

“I was thinking that too…never heard of Rida working with some” Nyssa said, “How’d you find about him?” She asked Vinny.

“He stabbed my hand and foot” The cameraman answered bluntly, “Also met Enji before Rida…Enji is like a pawn”

“Strange…” Tenshi whispered, “He and Rida, are they acquaintances?”

“Friends from what I’ve seen” Vinny answered.

“Well now we have more than one problem…” Nyssa sighed out, “but as we said before that’ll be a tomorrow problem” she chuckled.

“Agreed” Tenshi and Vinny spoke in unison as they both nodded. Then there was silence as the three sat there.

Time went by quickly as there was a ring from the door, all three of them perked up as Vinny got up and opened the door. Nyssa and Tenshi watched like happy puppies, eyes shining as they stared at the door.

The cameraman shut the door quickly and held two bags. “That smells good” Nyssa whined as she melted into the couch.

“Sure does” Vinny chuckled as she sat on the couch and put the food on the table in front of them.

The cameraman took the food out and smiled to himself when he could feel Tenshi and Nyssa patiently waiting happily. “C’mon you two, I’m not stopping you…eat” Vinny laughed as he leaned back into the couch.

Nyssa listened first and took a bite of a burger, “Fuckkk…I never wanna be trapped again” she sighed out in relief as she savoured the food.

“I don’t think you wanted to be trapped to begin with” Vinny teased, causing Nysaa to playfully nudge him. The cameraman just laughed out before it faded when he saw Tenshi sitting there, unmoving, just staring at the food. “C’mon eat…you deserve it” Vinny whispered as he handed a burger to Tenshi.

Tenshi just blinked before taking a bite of the burger, he melted into the couch. “I am killing Rida for trapping me…” Tenshi muttered as he stuffed his face with the burger.

Nyssa and Vinny laughed together as they both continued eating. The three made jokes and happily ate, “I swear I’m gonna start crying…” Nyssa laughed as she rubbed tears of happiness from her eyes.

“If you cry I’ll cry” the cameraman said with a soft smile, “And I was there for like three days”

“Three days…compared to 2 years…and then to 25…” Nyssa whispered as she leaned back, throwing her head against the couch. “Wow…how’d you handle…?” She asked Tenshi.

Tenshi sat there for a while, before lowering his head, his semi wet hair falling down and covering his face.

“Hard at first…killing was terrible” he began as Vinny and Nyssa listened intently. “Though…you realise emotions were useless there, sympathy and mercy weren’t getting you anywhere…”

“Well…i guess it worked in the long run…” the cameraman whispered.

“Yea…but hey! Sympathy is good! It got us all out of there!” Nyssa spoke u with a large smile, Tenshi smiled sombrely as he leaned into the hug he and Vinny were pulled into.

“Let’s finish eating…” the cameraman sighed softly, the two nodded as they all continued eating.

Awhile later they all finished eating and Vinny was back sitting near the kitchen countertop, he didn’t seem to like siting on the couch. The cameraman was once again absorbed in his overwhelming thoughts as he buried his face in his hands once again.

He had to tell Garmadon about this. When he made it back to everyone there was no way he could keep this a secret! What excuse could he come up with for disappearing for three days? He just went on a walk? Oh fuck no…he had to tell them…

Would Garmadon take it well…? Would he be upset at not being told sooner? Maybe Vinny could have Nyssa and Tenshi explain while Wu and Jay explain what they know so far? Maybe if they make if back to the Ivory Kingdom Shancai, Willow and Deity could help?

Fuck…this was so difficult. He wanted to tell them. He really did. But it seemed like his voice was just sucked out of him. The words were always stuck in his throat. Asking for help was hard…it shouldn’t be this hard, but it was.

“You should go shower now…” Tenshi whispered from the couch as he turned around to look back at Vinny, the cameraman blinked for a moment before his expression softened as he recognised Nysaas’ sleeping form on the couch.

“Later…” Vinny muttered out.

“No…now” Tenshi repeated, “You deserve it the most…and plus Nyssa said she was gonna get you to shower one way of another…” he chuckled quietly, causing Vinny to smile before giving in as he got up.

“Alright…don’t burn the place…” the cameraman quietly joked as he entered the bathroom, he could feel Tenshis’ worried eye staring him down. Was he anxiousness that obvious?

Vinny let out a sigh as he stared at the mirror, he looked terrible. Dirt covered his cheeks, more prominent eye bags and an expression that read he looked like he was in hell.

The cameraman rubbed a hand down his face, no wonder Nyssa was staring at him like that before…Tenshi probably was as well, he just hadn’t noticed. “Shit…” he muttered to himself as he rubbed a finger against a scab on his cheek, with dried blood around it.

He let out another sigh before pulling his shirt over his head and throwing it to the side. His muscles ached. His body dirty. Did Nyssa and Tenshi feel like this too? He would ask…he wanted them to be comfortable. Wanted them happy…

Vinny stripped the rest of his clothing before entering the shower and turning the knobs. Water fell down his aching body. Somewhat soothing him. He enjoyed being here. It wasn’t as nice as the monastery or kingdom, but it was familiar. And the familiar place was comforting.

The cameraman yawned as he rubbed his head with shampoo. Nyssa and Tenshis’ shower must’ve been heavenly. He washed his hair out and went to scrub him body. And gods it felt good. Just from the water alone he felt a hundred times cleaner.

“Fuck…” he groaned as he splashed his face with water, his eyes stung. Not from anything this particular, they just burned. They were blurry ears tears streamed down his face. He didn’t know why he was crying. Pathetic…couldn’t even last 3 days in there…

His eyes were drawn to his hand, a faint scar from when Enji stabbed him. Faint pain lingered. Pained memories. He put a hand out in front of him to steady himself as his legs trembled beneath him. He felt dizzy. Why? No idea. Exhaustion was catching up to him quickly.

Vinny clutched his head and slid down the shower wall till he was sat on the ground. Dried blood from his body dripped down alongside the water. Slowly cleaning him. He needed to finish here. Before Tenshi came and grew suspicious.

Slowly but surely he got up and finished washing himself. Once he exited the shower he stared at himself in the mirror. He hated mirrors. It reminded him of Enji. He clenched his fists and took a deep breath. He eventually dried himself and threw on some clothes. And staring at the mirror once more.

Staring at a mirror felt like Enji was mocking him. Silently laughing. His breathing quickened as he clenched his fists tighter, shutting his eyes tightly. All he could hear was Enjis’ mocking laughter. It was sickening, thought…there was Ridas’ voice there as well….

He hated it. He hated it. He hated it. It was suffocating. He hated being mocked. He covered his ears. Tears pricked in the corner of his eyes. The noise was killing him. His ears rung. He bit his lip before there was a sickening crash as his hand met with the mirror, causing it to shatter into pieces.

Vinny blinked, his tears coming to a halt as he stared at the shatter mirror. Then at his fist…glass shards had embedded themselves in there. Soft stinging pain. Though it felt numb.

The cameraman stayed quiet before his legs gave out and he dropped to the ground. He didn’t cry. Didn’t speak. Just sat there. Hands dropped by his side. He felt numb.

He was drawn out of his thoughts by a knock at the door. “Vinny…?” A soft voice called out, Tenshi.

Vinny wanted to answer, but he couldn’t. His voice got stuck in his throat. He couldn’t get up either. He couldn’t feel his body. There was another knock and Tenshi calling out again.

Tears slowly fell down his face, a blank expression. Just tears. Of pain? Of sadness? He didn’t know. He didn’t know. He didn’t know.

He could hear another voice from outside the door, probably Nyssa. He woke her up, how selfish of him. All because he couldn’t get up. All because he let his emotions gets the better of him. Pathetic. This was pathetic. He was pathetic.

There was banging on the door. They were trying to get in. It would be easier if he just got up and opened it. But he couldn’t. Or could he? Did he want to open? Was he lying to himself? Did he even want to see them? He didn’t know. He didn’t know anything anymore!

The door swung opened as a worried Nyssa and Tenshi stood there. Nyssa immediately crouched down next to Vinny and held his hand. “What happened?” She asked worriedly.

Vinny stayed quiet, he didn’t know what happened. “Stay with him, I’m sure there’s bandages somewhere in here” Tenshi said as he left the bathroom.

Nyssa pulled Vinny into a hug and comforted him. “It’s okay…you’re gonna be okay…” she whispered as he rubbed her finger against his bloody knuckles.

He should’ve felt pain…but he didn’t. It was numb. Everything was numb! He wanted to feel something. Anything! Pain! He wanted to feel pain!

Tenshi came back sooner than expected with a little bag. “Found some” he said as he sat on the ground and gently took Vinnys’ hand.

He didn’t flinch when he felt alcohol wiped on his cut knuckles. It didn’t hurt. Nyssa and Tenshi seemed to have noticed this as they exchanged looks.

Eventually Vinny ended up with bandages around his knuckles. Not a word came out of him as he was helped off the ground and out of the bathroom onto the couch.

“Drink…” Nyssa whispered as she handed him some water, he slowly took it and drank it. His lips were dry and chapped, yet the water soothed it.

“Sleep…” Tenshi said softly, his expression was pitiful. Vinny hated being this weak. He watched to curl up in a ball and die. But they were right, he was exhausted. And eventually leaned back into the couch, before his eyes drooped shut as exhaustion overtook him and his blacked out. No feeling at all…

What a strange day…

(Haven’t updated in a while and I apologise, so i decided to come back and give Vinny more trauma and this is a long chapter, also I love how this is chapter 100 dedicated👍)

Overwhelmed(Vinny x Garmadon Part 5!)

(I’m working on a new story as well though I’ll keep trying to post a new part everyday)(You should check out part 1-4 if you haven’t already)(Also the monastery has an elevator now they made one after Crystallisation cause why not)(small notes throughout the chapter are in red while at the end or beginning it’s is in green also in italics and bolded)( this is an edit my new story is out Cyrus x Acronix)

The group of four left the apartment as soon as Vinny packed his things, if he was gonna stay there for a while he’ll need some clothes. Vinny luckily managed to get out of work mainly because Garmadon yelled at the guy on the phone. The only thing Garmadon took was Christofern which pissed off Lloyd.

“So Vinny back to my question” Lloyd said as they started walking to the monastery. Vinny turned red, “What question?” Garmadon asked oblivious as he was asleep when the question was asked. Wu bonked Lloyd on the head with his staff, earning a pained groan. “What was that for?”Lloyd asked and he put his hands on his head. Wu let out a sigh, “Questions such as that are for later not now” Wu responded obviously noticing Vinnys’ face turning a bright red and using his staff to point towards him. It took Lloyd a moment to realise what he meant but when he it was quite obvious, because his eyes widened the he immediately stared towards Vinny and his father.

“I’m still curious what’s the question? Vinny do you know the question?” Garmadon asked turning to Vinny. Wu let out a sigh, “It is best that we continue walking otherwise we’ll be here all day” Wu said. “Y-yea we should get going”Vinny said out in an awkward laughing tone as he tried his best to shake off the question. Sure the two literally confessed their love for each other yesterday he still found it a pretty embarrassing this to talk about especially with 2 people that haven’t got a clue about their relationship.

Garmadon let out a sigh then continued walking along with the other 3. “Brother you and Vinny don’t mind sharing a room as there isn’t that many rooms for the two of you. “I don’t mind it isn’t that much different from the apartment” Garmadon replied. Lloyd stared at his father realising what he meant, “Wait wait wait, you two share a bed??”Lloyd asked he was flabbergasted at the thought of those two sharing a bed. Vinny nodded, “Vinny wouldn’t let me sleep on the couch and I wouldn’t let him sleep on the couch so we both agreed on sharing a bed” Garmadon said.

“Well that is quite a shock to hear that you would share a bed” Wu said as they all kept walking. “Honestly I had to sew 2 blankets together just so he could have his entire body covered” Vinny chuckled out. Garmadon stared at Vinny before saying, “I did not tell you to do that you did just did that out of kindness”.

“Here we are” Lloyd said out in a sigh of relief glad to be home. Vinny looked up at the stairs, “I’m not walking up all that..”Vinny said.“That’s why we installed an elevator” Lloyd said as he went towards the elevator. Vinny let out a sigh of relief and went in the elevator along with the others.

“Brother you should try your best to teach Lloyd properly and Lloyd will listen”Wu said he didn’t want a repeat of last time.”Very well I’ll try as long as Lloyd listens” Garmadon responded. It took a few minutes to reach the top of the monastery but finally they made it up. “Lloyd go tell the others that these two are staying with us I’ll take them to their room” Wu said as to which Lloyd obeyed.

Wu led the two towards their room and opened the door, the wall and a bit of a space theme there was small stars on the wall painted, there was two closets, a draw, a desk with a chair, a bedside table and there was a king sized bed(they deserve the best)which Vinny immediately jumped on, they took their shoes off outside. “I love this bed” Vinny giggled out loudly as he snuggled into the bed. Garmadon stared at Vinny and a small smile appeared on his face along with his cheeks having being covered with blush, Wu noticed this and smirked.

“Brother may I speak with you for a moment while Vinny unpacks?” Wu asked, Vinny nod nodded as he signalled his lover to place Christofern on the table next to him which the he obviously listened. Vinny gave Garmadon a thumbs up as he left the room closing the door. “What did you want to tell me?” Garmadon asked his brother. Wu walked a little bit far from the room, his brother following, as he didn’t want Vinny to hear him. “What do you think of Vinny?”Wu asked it was just like Lloyd said but with more meaning Lloyd wanted to know if Vinny thought Garmadon was a monster while Wu wanted to know if he actually liked Vinny.

Garmadons’ face lit up with bright purple blush but he attempted to hide it, “I don’t understand” Garmadon asked trying his best to act oblivious, “I’ve seen the way you look at him brother you were smiling before that is something I’ve barely seen you do”Wu replied. There was no answer what was he meant to say to his brother just fully on tell him the events of yesterday?Hell no he wasn’t going to do that, Wu would never stop bettering him about it.

“It’s alright if you do not feel like telling me, but you can always ask for help”Wu said as he left his brother be. Garmadon let out a sigh, “Is it really that obvious?”He thought to himself before going back to his room where Vinny was laying on the bed waiting for him. “Hey Garm! Isn’t this place great, I mean look at how big this bed is it’s bigger than me?” Vinny said out happily as he did a star pose showing how his limbs didn’t even reach the corners. Garmadon let out a chuckle before he kneeled down and gently kissed Vinnys’ head. This sudden affection made Vinny turn a bright red as he rolled over onto his stomach and shoved his face into the bed.

(Ayyyyy hope you enjoy this chapter. btw my next book is Cyrus x Acronix don’t you come and judge me for this I think it’s a cute ship)

perfection

Overwhelmed(Vinny x Garmadon)Part 80

(I suggest you check out parts 1-79 if you haven’t already, also my ao3 and wattpad for the chapters more organised)

Shancai and Vinny both stared up at the ledge, their expressions souring as they heard and saw Enjis’ voice. “Looks like my two favourite people have met!” Enji laughed out as he sat down on the ledge swinging his legs.

“Are you here to fight or talk?” The prince hissed as he held onto his spear, standing in front of the cameraman’s protectively.

“We both know I would love to talk to you, sunshine…but you are sooooo mean to me dear” The black haired menace spoke with fake offence as he stood back up, his hand gripping onto his enchanted mirror shard. Vinny had no idea what was going on, Enji was acting a little different.

“Whatever you do stay close” The prince muttered to Vinny, receiving a nod, what else was he meant to do? He couldn’t protect himself and definitely couldn’t outrun Enji, but the cameraman was torn out of his thoughts as Enji used the enchanted mirror to teleport behind him and rests hand on his shoulder.

“How you doing buddy?” The black haired menace spoke with fake care as he smiled at the cameraman devilishly, Vinny let out a small yelp as he jumped slightly trying to pull from Enjis’ touch. Thankfully, Shancai knocked Enjis’ hand away with his spear. “Oh you wound me Shanni!” He spoke as he clutched his chest.

“Enough with your dramatics” The prince spoke as he rolled his eyes, Enji just smiled at him before teleporting away, but still in sight.

“Alright alright!” Enji laughed out demonically as he pulled out a bunch of small daggers, “We can have a conversation another time, right now…I wanna see how far you’re willing to go to protect my new friend” he added with a smile.

“Asshole…” Vinny grumbled, Enji referring to him as a, friend, made him sick. He knew he was being messed with, but he still hated Enji. Though seeing Enji was better than seeing Rushifa.

“I heard of Rushifa’s little act” The black haired menace spoke, causing Vinnys’ throat to go dry as his heart dropped. Enji threw a bunch of daggers, but the prince pulled Vinny under a market stall and pulled down the cover, which managed to block the daggers.

“Ignore him” Shancai spoke, “He’s messing with your emotions” he added, as he kept the market cover down, shielding them from Enjis’ sight and attacks.

“It’s a bit hard when I’m freezing and he knows exactly what upsets me” The cameraman answered, his voice slightly frustrated, he wasn’ frustrated at Shancai, but at Enji, he was so sick of him.

“You’re cold?” The prince asked, Vinny nodded, but was a bit surprised as to why Shancai focused on that.

“It’s no fun when you hide!” Enji called out as the sound of metal clanking was heard. The prince ignored him and grabbed a random cloth and wrapped it around Vinny like a cloak, he also grabbed this clasp that kept the makeshift cloak together, it seemed like it had a phoenix on it.

“Better?” Shancai asked, receiving another nod from the cameraman.

“Shanni!” Enji called out, “Seriously! You usually fight me! But now you’re not to protect him!? I’m kinda jealous~!” He added, with fake innocence as he scrapped a dagger against the metal polls.

“You see there?” Shancai spoke to Vinny as he pointed to a different side, the cameraman nodded, “I need you to run, while I keep him busy” the prince added.

“Are you crazy?” Vinny asked, “I’m not leaving you” he added worriedly, receiving a confused look from the prince.

“I can defend myself” Shancai spoke, before rolling his eyes as Enji made another dramatic comment.

“I-I know, but are you sure? What if he hurts you?” Vinny asked worriedly.

“I’ll be fine…if I get hit it’ll be nothing short of a bruise” The prince answered before peeking out from the market cover, throwing a spear towards Enji, while another one rejuvenated in his hand which his hit the ground three times, before the old spear exploded.

“Fine…” the cameraman sighed before at where he needed to run, Shancai gave him a reaffirming nod which Vinny let out a shaky breathe before bolting out of the cover, he just kept running and running, he could hear Enji cackling as he threw daggers.

The prince however lunged towards Enji, taking his attention off Vinny, “Hey sexy~” Enji spoke, his voice slightly shaky as he was pinned down by Shancai. As much as the cameraman wanted it be weirded out by how Enji was being, he couldn’t, he just had to keep running.

Shancai let out a shaky gasp as ‘Enji’ disappeared from in front of him, either a clone or he used the mirror. The prince immediately got up and ran towards Vinny. “Watch out!” Shancai shouted as Enji threw a dagger towards the cameraman.

Vinny flinched away, the dagger thankfully missing anything important, but he let out a pained cry as the dagger sliced his upper arm. Blood dripped down as he stared at the cut. “Don’t stop! Keep running I’m enjoying this game!” Enji laughed out as he played with a new dagger.

Vinny growled in annoyance, ignoring the very obvious blood that began staining his clothes. He began moving away only to have Enji jump up and get ready to kick him. Vinny noticed too late.

The cameramans’ eyes widened as he saw Enji, he shut his eyes expecting to get hit, but the impact never came, he hesitantly opened his eyes as he heard a soft groan. Shancai was in front of his, staring daggers into Enjis’ head. Vinny couldn’t help, but notice how surprised Enji looked, he didn’t seem to expect to hit Shancai.

“Shit! You okay!?” The cameraman asked worriedly once he recovered from the shock, as he went over to the princes’ side.

“Way to take the fun out of it princey…” Enji grumbled before he grabbed a pastry from one of the now abandoned stalls, before disappearing.

“Go fuck yourself asshole!” Vinny hissed out, just incase Enji was still there listening, he turned his attention back to Shancai. “That’s gotta hurt…”

“I’m fine” The prince spoke as he stood up straight, holding onto his spear tightly.

“Don’t give me that fucking bullshit” The cameraman hissed, in a more harsh tone that even surprised himself, Shancai seemed surprised being spoke to that way. “S-sorry…fuck you shouldn’t get hurt to protect me…” he sighed out shakily.

“We’re both hurt” Shancai spoke, as he stared at Vinnys’ bleeding arm.

“Right…” the cameraman sighed out as he rubbed his temples, the prince grabbed a small cloth and wrapped it around Vinnys’ wound to somewhat stop the bleeding. It hurt when Shancai tightened the cloth, the cameraman took a sharp breathe and winced slightly.

“We should go back to the palace…I can help bandage that” The prince spoke, receiving a defeated nod from Vinny as they began making their way to the palace.

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.
