Chapter Text
The wind felt comforting on his skin. He flapped his wings to keep himself up in the air.
The clouds, the stars and the coldness of the night was like a safe place. His tail kept him steady. Zane the elemental master of ice was free from training for the night, after everyone went to sleep he snuck out. Well kinda. Sensei wu saw him, he was slightly disappointed but let him be, guess having him as a step dad was some privilege. The moon was high, 1 hour past midnight. The ice ninja soared through the skies for a while, losing track of time.
__________________________________________
Dawn rolled around, the ice ninja finally landed back at the bounty. He made a loud thud while landing. Seems like wu heard that by the way he came out and greeted him.
“Welcome back zane, you were out far longer than i expected from you.” Wu stated rubbing his beard. Zane looked down, “I'm sorry dad, I lost track of time. The wind was so nice last night.” I looked back up at Wu. he nodded “Well we are gonna start training soon so wake up the others for me, and if u want u can start cooking breakfast for everyone. I know Lloyd has been craving pancakes for a while, you can cook that to make him quiet for a while.” I laughed a little at the comment, his cousin has always been like that. He's been training more recently so I think Lloyd deserves a reward for that.
I walked to the sleeping chambers, once I got to the door I opened it slightly. Lloyd was already up looking at his phone when he turned to look at me. Lloyd waved at him and started to sit up. “Morning zane, where were you last night? I heard you leave.” Lloyd turned off his phone and sat it next to him. “Oh um, i just went out to get some fresh air i guess” i responded quietly. Lloyd looked at the wings that were on my back. “Lucky, could have invited me, I've been wanting to get out of this cramped place for at least a night.” Lloyd complained, his green and blond tail moving slightly, the bracelet on it jiggling slightly. I sighed “i'll tell dad that you and i are gonna be out late tomorrow i guess” getting up i looked around the room and at the other 3 ninja in the room, then i looked back at lloyd with a smirk. “Wanna wake them up?” Lloyd looked up at me smiling back. “Of course brother” he replied with fake innocence.

The five of them walked out of the room, Kai glared at Zane melting ice dripping off of him “couldn't wake someone up normally huh” Lloyd laughed and Zane joined in “we did nothing wrong!” Lloyd said looking at kai with a innocent child like look on his face.
Cole and Jay walked behind them, still waking up, but they might wanna shower after Lloyd poured some juice on them to wake them up. It was a calmer wake up then they usually did but hey i works. At least they didn't have to fix a hole in the wall of the bounty again. They arrived in the kitchen and Zane immediately started working on pancakes. Lloyd came up behind him, jumping on his back carefully to not hurt the wings Zane had. He could hear Lloyd sniff the air “ Ahhh pancakes missed them so” Lloyd laid his head on Zane’s shoulder. He usually did that everytime he would cook…which was a lot so he got used to it. His gray tail keeping lloyd from falling.
Once he was done Nya came in. ah he forgot to get kai to wake her. Guess kai forgot too, but that's probably for the better. One time I woke her and I think I almost lost my tail…never again.
“Morning Nya, sleep well?” I asked while passing out plates to everyone. Lloyd climbed off my back and sat down immediately downing a pancake. Nya looked at me and nodded “surprisingly did, guess not working on stuff makes u not tired the next day” Nya jokes. Everyone else greeted Nya as she sat down.

I was laying on the deck of the bounty, Lloyd napping in his dragon form next to me. It was weird how they could turn into dragons. Fms i was a robot that could turn into an organic ice dragon, its weird…i still don't understand how. It was kinda explainable how Lloyd could, he was the grandson of the first spinjitzu master, But me, i'm just a robot who was built by Dr. julien and his husband. But ever since i started to be alone in the forest for a while…i started to grow them,then i could use ice as i was one with it, then i could turn into an ice dragon.
He looked at Lloyd, his whiskers flowing in the wind, he looked peaceful. I wish I could do that as well. I sighed looking at the sky, I wished I could be alone again,but that was the worst thing to happen to me. Wu found me when I was injured, my tail and wings were somehow bleeding. Staining the snow I walked on. Once it was dark everything was blurry. Not noticing Wu was close, blending in with the snow. Once he found me I passed out, and woke up in the monastery with bandages wrapped around my tail and on my wings.
It was scary to wake up in a new place, I laughed quietly remembering that I accidentally froze the room I was laying in. Wu walked into the room holding a teacup that he still has and uses. He looked shocked at what happend but quickly shrugged it off and walked towards me. Handing me the cup and said “it has healing properties, it will help with the wounds but the tail might be scared from how deep the wound was” I remember drinking it and getting tired after a few minutes. I think Wu said I was asleep for 2 days. I closed my eyes and breathed out, I spread out my wings, letting the wind hit against them. The coldness of the wind was comforting, yea being this high up was cold, but not cold enough. I was used to freezing temperatures ,and snow.
I guess being the elemental master of ice was fitting for him. Folding my wings back and standing up I looked at Lloyd, still asleep. I jumped off the top of the bounty onto the deck. Jay, who I didn't know was there, jumped with a slight scream. ‘Zaneee!! Stop just appearing out of nowhere!!” he whined. I turned around and looked at Jay “sorry, but be quiet Lloyd is napping up there” I said. Jay looked up at the spot I jumped down from, and saw a green and yellow dragon napping. “Coool” Jay said aloud.
“Well I'm going to fill the shower with ice and make it become an ice bath. I'm craving to feel the coldness of laying in snow or more. If the others ask, just say I'm in the shower!” I said to jay quickly before running off inside the bounty. I heard Jay yell “MAKE SURE EVERYTHING MELTS THIS TIME!!”. I was not letting it melt.
__________________________________________
After what probably was 3 hours of just sitting in icy water I finally got out, I could have stayed in longer but hey I already took way too much time in here, and the ice was melting a little…sadly. It's still enough to bother kai tho so that's a win. After getting dressed I walked to the kitchen. It was around lunch time so I should start that. After preparing and putting the pizza in the oven I waited. After a few minutes Cole walked in and looked through the fridge, upon finding nothing he closed it. “Do we have anything sweet? Im craving something rn” He whined before sitting down next to me, butting his head on my shoulder. I sighed “i can see if dad will let me go shop for some snacks later, or now if u ask him” i said to cole
Cole raised his head off my shoulder and looked at me “Do u think i have a death wish?” he asked jokingly…kinda, Wu was always harsh on them “wasting” money as he liked to call it. “I'll let you get ice cream cake and ice cream” I offered. Cole stood up immediately and dragged me along with him. We found Wu wondering about the bounty, Cole went up to Wu and asked if they could borrow some money for snacks, annnnd there it was…Wu bonked Cole on the head. I sighed before saying “ I'll get you some tea you are running out of”. Wu stroked his beard at that before saying “Fine, just be back quickly. Lloyd stole some of my sugar and I think he is about to go wild…also get some sugar. I ran out. “Thank you dad, and can you watch the oven? There's pizza cooking and I don't want it to burn, "I replied to Wu. Dad nodded before grabbing some money and handing it to me. I don't know how or where he gets the money from but I would rather not question it.
