Previously...
They both were at a weakened might state, so they had no control over their own actions. Acronix gently put his hand on the wheelchair. His eyes now a softened pastel-golden color, staring right into a gorgeous pastel (grayish) blue color ones. Their lips were inches apart when...
Now...
Artwork above belongs to me ^^ and yes I keep changing his eye color because I have no damm idea what color Cyrus's eyes would be-
Their lips were inches apart when Acronix finally realized what was going on. But practically it was too late when they gave in and both fell into a small kiss. Though it didn't last long when they heard familiar laughter and footsteps. Acronix quickly parted and merely fell backward. Yet he landed on the armor and let out a small yelp in pain as it hit his side. That one side that became sensitive after the last time he was hurt badly enough.
Though when Cyrus did wish to see if he was ok. He knew he would get yelled at for not working. So he attended back to his work, feeling a bit guilty. Yet his cheeks flared up with a crimson color from what had happened. Acronix did put the armor back on before he ran back over to the table he was at previously. Though he ended up tripping. Thanking the armor for partly blocking his fall. The door opened and Krux walked through with a small frown. "Brother! Those ninjas have taken the time blade by the time we got there, these two nitwits can't simply keep the ninjas off!" He barked at the two orange snake commanders.
Acronix quickly got up and acted as nothing happened. Though he walked around and to his brother. "It wasn't our fault! The blue one came over on this supersonic bike, I definitely want one", one said. "Oh and me too! And we did the whole time bubble thing-" the ragmunk said with an amused smile. Which Krux's eye twitched from, Acronix sighed quietly, knowing where this was going, and that he had to act what his brother would expected. "We had the time blade-" "but you lost the time blade-" "now we DON'T have the time blade-" "and you used the time blade!" "You were not given permission to use the time blade" "because you didn't know how to use the time blade. And if you did--", Krux stopped his sentence to gain blunk's attention. "WE WOULD HAVE NOT LOST THE TIME BLADE!" He yelled in anger.
"Okay- maaaaybe we didn't use the time blade-" "yeah- we totally didn't-" the snake commanders said, looking nervous. Krux clearly was getting more mad. "First you lost the time blade, then lose the time blade, and LIED about using and losing the time blade. Do you not know how bad you are sounding?" Acronix said in a ticked-off voice. "Okay- how about-- we lure them there and tell them we would give Cyrus borg for the time blade?" Blunk said in a questionable tone. Both time twins looked at Cyrus, who was nervously working.
"But we NEED Cyrus borg for our master plan!" Krux barked. Which blunk had to quickly rethink about this. "Okay-- but we take the time blade and- don't give Cyrus borg!" He recorrected himself. "Doublecross!" Ragmunk added. Krux rubbed his temple. "Has it occurred to you that IF we do that, they would know where our secret headquarters is, see our master plan, AND take the time blade?!" He barked. Though Acronix looked to Cyrus again, who was tormented by Machia. Never really noticing how much Cyrus actually bites his lip when nervous. He faintly blushed but looked away from him when she turned back around and walked over.
Though Acronix came back to the smake commanders explaining about some plan dealing with chocolate ice cream. Though Krux had enough and pulled Acronix to the side before he would do something rash to the snake commanders. Just letting Machia do the work for him. "So tell me brother, what has gotten you to become so flustered?" He asked to Acronix, which Acronix stuck out his tongue slightly, looking confused. "What you mean brother?" Acronix questioned. Though Krux couldn't help but give a small smile to how innocent Acronix looked.
"Do you got a small crush?" Krux did tease, which Acronix stuck out his tongue more, giving an innocent smile. "Noo-", Acronix said nervously. "I know that look anywhere, and I bet I know who it is." His older brother teased. Acronix panicked slightly, hoping he was in time to where he didn't see what he and Cyrus did. He quickly shifted away with an innocent smile. Only to have Krux laugh in amusement. It slowly warmed his heart to see Krux like this. Though as he couldn't help it, he hugged him tightly. Which shocked Krux a bit. But no doubt he returned the hug.
"Krux, Acronix, due to the temporal scanner on the borg watch. The plan is simplified of retrieving both time blades. We just have to go and get it." Machia said, driving the two apart to look at her. "Ah, a brilliant idea I have to say, Commander Machia. Well put" Krux praised. Acronix glanced at Cyrus, who just now meet eyes with him. They both blushed at each other before they parted their eyes away. Though knowing he would have to go with them this time, he wished he would have talked to Cyrus of what happened.
Though merely everything was going according to plan, to Krux that is. Acronix however, felt bad for having to watch the warriors fight off the ninjas on the floating island. "Say- how can that temple float? Do they have some sort of magical spell on it?" Acronix asked though Krux shrugged. "Those ninjas always messed around with magic and elements," Krux said with a small huff. He crossed his arms. Though Acronix watched as a dragon flew down. His eyes widen in shock, never knowing one could do that.
Though with looking up, noticing blades coming down towards them. He stood over to the side slightly and two manage to miss him, Krux, and Machia, though blunk and ragmunk ran around like idiots due to it. Though Acronix looked at the blade and his eyes widen. Having a small flashback to his past. He backed away from the blades quietly, though Krux noticed. He frowned and step back to him. "Remembering about what happened?" He questioned like he forgot that he-himself actually did hurt Acronix as well.
Acronix nodded silently, hoping to get Krux off his back a bit as he remembered about the time that Krux hurt him after they finished with their parent's funeral. Krux was upset at the time, Acronix knew that, so as much as it did hurt, he still forgave him. Acronix was the one to forgive easily, mainly because he didn't want any conflicts with anyone. Let alone live with knowing he upset the person. But he always had believed with 'Second Chances', but of course, he had given Krux many of chances. Mainly because he was his twin, even if a lot don't think that. But of course, they don't know that Acronix was stuck in a Temporal Vortex for 40 years when it felt like it was way much shorter to him.
Acronix was pulled out of his thoughts when he noticed the green one plummeting to his death. He wanted to do something so bad, which his quickest reaction was stepping forward in a worried pose, arm barely lifted. Though he sighed in relief when a Mech swooped him up just before he actually hit the ground. Though Krux was about to have enough of this delay. He quietly walked to the ship and got on. "Come." He simply said, which Acronix followed, the snake commanders included. Acronix felt uneased with this, he knew Krux had some sort of plan.
But everything felt like a blur...
One moment that Acronix remembers was that he was face to face with the Earth ninja. Even if he didn't want to fight him, he had no other choice. Though he did miss the adrenaline from fighting hand to hand. Since Krux had the Time blade, Acronix had no other choice but to use his hands. Swiftly kicking the Earth ninja off his feet and onto his back, he had to dodge a sudden ice streak that shot right in front of him. "And here I thought that robots are unable to have elemental powers," Acronix said as he dodged a fist from the Ice ninja. "That would be an understatement, Acronix." The Nindroid said as he glared at the male, using his ice to make Acronix fall to the floor.
Though Acronix did not stop there, he took out a sword and swung it at the Droid, who dodged it just in time, but barely. Then came to another swing, which got the droid to accidentally fall on top of the Earth Ninja. "Gah! Zane get off me!" The Earth ninja barked, "Sorry Cole--", the one known as Zane muttered as he got off. Which gave Acronix enough time to assist his brother against the Fire ninja. Who was pretty enraged at him.
But the next moment he knew, Krux was thrown on top of him by the one known as Lloyd. Pretty much he learned all their names by their small celebration. "Now how are you going to rule Ninjago without ANY of the time blades?!" Lloyd asked with an amused smile. Though he turned to his team. Krux didn't look at them, knowing he was in defeat. Though Acronix stayed on the ground on his hands and knees. As much as he was glad they had the time blades than his brother, but he was a bit upset that those time blades was his very own set of powers. Rather half of the element he was born with.
Though Acronix looked to the weakened Spinjitzu Master, who tried to call out to his team to watch out for Machia. Who she swiftly took the time blades and had them in a slowed time bubble. "As promised, the time blades is yours to keep!" She said as she handed both time blades to the time twins, one each. Acronix moved his hair out of his face, he frowned upon that his hair tie had snapped during battle. "Good, and let's take HIM with us", Krux said as he pointed to Wu. Acronix was about to protest, but Machia already was ahead of him. He headed to the ship with his brother as Machia followed after with Wu.
Acronix looked back a the ninjas and frowned. But there wasn't anything he could do. All he could do was be a pawn in his brothers' game.
