He yelled desperately, "Pixal, you have to stop this!"
"There is no Pixal, only the Quiet One." The Samurai replied ominously.
Lloyd stared at her in confusion but replied angrily, "Sorry about this. But you aren't exactly in the right frame of mind!"
He began to slash and stab at the mech, just as the girl had done. How amusing. They both had the same mindset. Incredible. Scratching the paint was going to do something. At least now, Lloyd was making little sparks appear, but it was nothing special. He had managed to stab his sword into the little crevice finally. Electricity began to buzz as the sword made contact with the wires. Harumi shrieked at the sudden jolt, and I found myself gripping onto the metal hand which grasped me. We were falling even faster, with smoke coming from the mech. A fast death was better than a slow one. However, Samurai X, now known as Pixal had concluded that it was suicide if she decided to stay in the mech and ejected from it.
"I did not think that through," Lloyd said out loud and watched Pixal fly to the Bounty.
I laughed crazily and replied sarcastically, "No you did not. Thank you for coming to our rescue."
He glared at me, and the girl held gazes with me. Remarkable. The girl shrieked as we fell to our immediate dooms. I could already see the tears falling down her face. It was incredible really, and somewhat ironic. Every night, I would hurt her on the days with thunder and lightning to drown out her screams of pain. It would work just like a charm. No one was ever allowed into my quarters, and the girl and I slept on the same floor. So I could walk into her room just as I pleased. I still remember how she cowered in fear upon seeing my face as the thunder struck. No one was ever able to hear her screams over the thunder. Each time, I would leave her with even more bruises. One time, there was blood pooling from under her, and she was on the brink of unconsciousness. I thought she would pass that day, but unfortunately, she did not. It was amazing how she was to die on the day when the thunder was roaring over her screams once again.
Lloyd moved to the girl first and began to use his strength to free her from the clasp of the metal hand. She was very unstable, even with him holding on to her.
"We're...we're...we're gonna—" She cried out as her mind began to grasp that she was going to die.
The green ninja held eye contact with her and yelled, "Look at me! We're gonna get outta this! You hear me?"
"The map! Maybe we can use it to parachute down!" She yelled as the tears still fell.
I found myself laughing uncontrollably at her words, and asked, "How'd you even get the map? Wasn't it on the baby?"
"What is this, a cartoon? That's never gonna work!" Lloyd yelled, cutting off whatever she was going to reply.
He then carried her and placed the girl inside the mech's cockpit.
He stared at her while shutting the breastplate on her, "The suit should break your fall."
"What? No! What about you?" She yelled in horror as she realized what he was going to do.
Lloyd replied shortly, "Sorry. Only room for one."
"I'm here as well everyone. But of course, let me fracture my skull so that the little girl will be safe first. Not like Ninjago needs their Emperor," I said sarcastically.
They both ignored me, much to my anger. How could they ignore me? Their rightful ruler? How ignorant.
"No! I need you!" The girl shrieked as her voice cracked.
She tried to move her arms to grasp onto the green ninja. Her arms were stuck in the seat, all she could move was her head.
He stared at her with pained eyes, "And I need that map."
