My father never told me I had a twin brother, so when I found him stealing in Jamanakai Village from a candy vendor I immediately walked over to him and started to pick pocket him to give some back to the vendor, but keep most for myself. When I saw he was done I had gotten more than the majority of his candy/ I told the vendor of the candy cart that the kid tried to steal some of the candy, which I said was only five pieces, when it was actually more around twenty-five. I was walking away when I hear an annoying screech of a little kid,
"HEY! Where'd my candy go?!" I turned around to see the boy checking his pockets thoroughly. I felt a connection with this kid, even though I don't know him.
"Hey shorty!" I called over to him and he turned upon hearing my voice, "Here ya' go!" I chucked a couple king sized Twix bars at him. I saw him come after me so I ducked into an alley and climbed up to a roof, but sadly he saw me and climbed up after me.
"Hey wait up! I wanna talk to you!" he shouted to me so I stopped and turned around abruptly which caused him to bump into me and stumble back almost falling off the roof, but I grabbed his hand and hoisted him up. I smirked under my mask,
"Careful kid, don't want you goin' splat now do we?" I asked while he looked at me confused. I tilted my head, which caused my hood to fall off, exposing my H/L H/C hair. I opened my eyes and he backed away once he saw them, I sighed, knowing that the only chance I had at making a friend was gone.
"What's with your eyes? They look like a blazing fire in a black abyss. They're beautiful!" he said getting louder towards the end, describing my very interesting eyes. I got them from my father. I sigh and look down,
"I got them from my father, he abandoned me at Darkell's School for Bad Girls when I was six, I haven't seen him since..." I said trailing off near the end while I thought about him and the stories of my mother he told me in the six years he had me... before he ditched me. I looked back up to see Shorty look at me in shock,
"Well you're not alone on the abandoning part, my mom abandoned me a Darkly's School for Bad Boys when I was six," he explained extending his hand, "I'm Lloyd Garmadon, son of the Evil Ruler Lord Garmadon and future dark lord! What's your name?" Lloyd asked, but when he looked at me he looked worried at my rather shocked and confused face.
"That's impossible! I don't have a brother! My name is Y/N Garmadon, daughter of the Evil Ruler Lord Garmadon!" I exclaimed looking at him, as I looked closer at him I could see some similarities to him and my father, but they weren't very noticeable. I only saw that his eyes were the same as dad's before he was bitten by the great devourer, forest green. I walked to the edge of the roof and jumped down to the ground, but when I landed, I didn't see Lloyd next to me. I looked up and saw him looking down at me with shocked eyes,
"You comin' Shorty?" I called up to him but he just looked at me like I was crazy, which I am, but that's beside the point. Lloyd shook his head.
"Are you crazy?! I can't jump down there, I'll break something!" he exclaimed. I sighed and rolled my eyes.
"I'll catch you, just come on!" I said holding my arms out ready to catch him, I saw him gulp and jump down, and once he landed in my arms I set him down. I noticed his eyes were closed so I snuck up behind him and picked him up from his waist causing him to scream and flail around, which caused me to put him down and fall on the dirt alleyway, laughing my ass off.
"Not funny, Y/N! You really sca-startled me!" he said, he was scared but didn't want to admit it.
"Sorry bro! I didn't mean to scare ya'! I just wanted to mess with you before we left." I said, laughing. Lloyd looked at me, confused.
"What do you mean by "before we leave"?" he asked.
"Well you're my brother, and I don't know where you're living so I'm gonna take you to my home base." I explained to the confused boy in front of me. He still looked confused and I sighed, I grabbed his hand and started to walk with him to my base. I felt him leaning forwards so I turned to see him half-asleep. I sighed again and picked him up.
"Go to sleep, Lloyd, I'll carry you till we get there." he nodded and got comfortable, I started to walk to our base.
~~~
Once we got there, I set Lloyd on my sleeping bag, but he was freezing cold. I don't blame him, though, it is pretty cold in the mountains. I don't get cold, though, so I'm fine. I got Lloyd a blanket and draped it over him. I smiled, he was able to sleep so peacefully. I wish I could do that, but I have to keep watch most nights for animals and bandits that live up in the mountains. I sat down next to him and put his head on my lap, then started running my fingers through his hair. I know I just met him, but he's my long lost brother, I want him to know that he has someone to come to and who will listen to him, I also want him to know he's protected from danger when he's with me. Lloyd started to stir awake, he sat up and rubbed his eyes,
"Have a nice sleep, Lloyd?" I asked him, smiling. He jumped slightly, I guess he thought I wasn't here or that I was just a pillow, once he got his bearing he nodded.
"Yeah, but where are we?" he asked.
"We're at your new home, Lloyd, you're gonna stay with me, ok?" I asked, softly.
"Oh ok, but why are we up in the snowy mountains and not a sheltered cave?" he asked. I simply smirked in return.
"Who said we weren't?" I said getting up and walking towards a tall pile of leaves. I pulled it back and it revealed a cave, "Come on in, Bro!" I said holding the curtain of leaves open for him, he immediately ran in and looked around. I chuckled,
"Woah! This is so cool! I have the best sister ever!" he exclaimed. I walked up to him and put my hand on his shoulder,
"Welcome home, Brother."
