I got the idea for this story when I was playing Minecraft with my sister, and I was reminded of a story I read kind of like it. So I read the story again and then decided to write a NinjaGo version of it. I'm not sure how Minecraft gave me the idea for this story…its so weird.

Summary: While on a mission in the Frozen Plains the ninja find themselves stuck on thin ice above a freezing lake. Trouble occurs.

Pairings: Lava, Techno, and some Forgiven

Warnings: Not much I can think of… Yaoi, Fluff, near-death experience. Not much. This will get fluffy so watch out!

Enjoy!

"Awww Sensei Wu…Do we have too?" Lloyd whined lightly before he sat aside the chopsticks he was using to eat his noodles. Sensei Wu rolled his eyes. He had just assigned them a mission to go retrieve an ancient scroll that was hidden somewhere in the Frozen Plains. Of course Lloyd and Cole immediately protested. Lloyd, because he would rather stay at the Bounty with Brad. And Cole, because he hated the cold.

"Yes Lloyd. You have too. You will need all the help you can get. No, that doesn't mean Brad and Nya can join you. The five of you can handle it just fine." Sensei Wu told them in his raspy voice. He then excused himself from the table to go meditate. Cole groaned.

"I don't want to go the Frozen Plains. Its so cold there…" Cole complained and shivered involuntarily. The Earth ninja subconsciously moved closer to his lover who was next to him. Kai wrapped his arm around Cole and pulled him closer.

"Don't worry Cole. I will keep you warm. I promise." Kai tells his smaller lover and he received a 'hum' and a nod in response. The others weren't complaining beside Brad and Nya not being able to accompany them.

"I wish I could go." Brad told Lloyd as he dragged the Green ninja away from the dining area. Lloyd shook his head and pulled away from his smaller lover and instead took him in his arms.

"No. You could get hurt. You need to stay like Uncle Wu said." Lloyd commanded Brad, though the younger didn't like it, he would have to do as he said. They shared a quick kiss before Lloyd left to get ready along with the others.

Soon, they were all dressed up in several layers of warm gear. Cole, unlike the others, had on a thick fur coat. Zane had told him over and over that the coat would weight and slow him down but Cole was not caring. Eventually Kai got tired of Zane 'annoying' his lover and told them both to drop it. Jay defended Zane and told them that Zane was right and soon an argument broke out. The argument ended with Kai getting mad and almost hitting Zane, it was stopped when Cole calmed him down and apologies were exchanged. Soon they set off.

After several long hours of tracking through snow covered fields on the way to the temple, the ninja were faced with crossing an ice covered lake. Zane had suggested they go individually so that the ice wouldn't crack but Kai insisted it was safe enough. Lloyd went across first to test out they ice. He told them it was safe enough for the rest to cross all together.

"I guess its safe enough. Follow my lead and step lightly." Zane commanded and began to carefully step across the frozen lake. He was followed by Jay, Cole and then Kai.

"See? I told you it was safe." Kai bragged lightly. He was shushed by Cole so that another argument wouldn't break out. They had made it halfway across the lake when Cole told them he had heard some cracking noises.

"I'm sure it was nothing Cole. Quit being so paranoid." Jay said from in front of them. He had also heard the cracking but did not want to alarm Cole or Zane, so he said nothing. Cole stepped forward cautiously, making sure the ice could hold him. Suddenly when he stepped down, a loud cracking noise could be heard.

"Uh Cole." Kai tried, he began walking closer but Zane called to him to stop moving all together. All four of them stood unmoving as the cracking continued. Soon it stopped. Jay sighed loudly.

"Come on Cole its safe now." Jay told him to encourage him to move forward but Cole just shook his head no. "Its safe. Come on." Jay tried again but Cole still refused. Finally Jay lost his temper and reached to grab Cole and pull him forward, but another crack was heard.

Just then, the ice under Cole gave out and both of them fell into the water. While Cole fell all the way in and was completely unseen, Jay had turned enough to were he would land halfway on the ice and only his lower half went into the freezing water.

"Cole! Cole!" Kai called and attempted to jump in after his fallen boyfriend but he was stopped by Zane. Lloyds calls could be heard lightly in the

"Stop. We don't need you to get sick too. I assure you Cole will be okay. Come on we need to get Jay out so he don't get sick as well as Cole." Zane said and moved to help Jay up.

"Need I remind you that Cole is not the best swimmer. Jay you need to dive in there and help him or so help me I will make you regret living." Kai growled out the order. Zane was no for Jay diving in any further and risking hyperthermia but he knew that Cole had to be save. Jay looked up into Zane's gray eyes almost for permission to help Cole. The Ice ninja shook his head and instead pulled Jay out of the water. Kai was about to protest when Zane jumped in himself and helped Cole out of the water.

Considering Zane was a robot and couldn't get sick, he decided it was best if he went it. He found Cole sinking to the bottom and grabbed before he touched the ground. Zane pulled the Earth ninja back up to the surface. Once both of them were above the water, Zane handed Cole over to Kai, who took him in his arms and held him close. Zane did the exact same thing with Jay.

"Cole. Cole babe are you okay?" Kai asked almost frantically as he ran his hands over Cole's cold, wet cheeks. Emerald eyes stared up at him. Cole could only nod weakly. They had settled only slightly before moving the rest of the way across the lake. Lloyd met them ready to sacrifice his jacket to either of them. Zane had instructed Lloyd to find a cave for shelter. Once a cave was located, the soaking ninjas were directed into the safe cave.

"Come on. We have to get the wet layers off of them. So they don't get sick." Zane instructed and proceeded to help Jay out of his wet clothes. Leaving him in his underwear in which Zane took off his jacket to cover Jay's legs. When Kai had began removing Cole's clothes he came to a shocking discover that the last layer of clothing Cole was wearing was not wet. He had on a pair of sweats that was still dry. Kai assumed the massive amount of layers Cole he was wearing prevented them from getting wet. Kai was not complaining though.

Kai set the wet clothes aside to dry and took off his jacket to give to his lover. Lloyd was fuming around attempting to find anything to help keep them warm. Zane had told him to find materials to make a fire, and Lloyd disappeared from the cave. When he came back he had lots of sticks and some coal. No one questioned where he got it from since no one cared.

To help keep Jay warm, Zane had switched himself to 'heater mode' and held Jay in his arms. Kai was doing the same thing, practically wrapping himself around his shivering boyfriend. He was willing to do anything to help his freezing lover. Though he didn't have much elemental power in him since they didn't bring their weapons, he still focused all the fire in him into warming his lover.

"I got the fire started. How did this happen?" Lloyd told them and then asked. From afar, all he could see was them fall. He wasn't able to hear the cracking ice or the panic that occurred when the ice gave way. Zane explained what had happened, and that the carelessness of all of them had caused this.

"Hey. It wasn't Cole's fault. It was Jay's for stepping to close and causing the ice to break." Kai growled out pointing an accusing finger at the Lightning ninja. Jay didn't look defensive since he knew it was the truth. Zane didn't defend him either since Kai had a valid point and there was no use arguing.

"I-I-I-it's not J-jay's fault-t. Don't b-blame him." Cole managed out behind his chattering teeth. He was border lining unconsciousness and ready to sleep. Kai only nodded and placed a kiss on Cole's blue lips.

"Its okay now Cole. Just sleep. When you wake up we will be on the nice, warm bounty and I will bring some hot chocolate. You would never have to leave our warm bed ever again. I promise. Now sleep, and promise me you will wake up." Kai told Cole, who nodded and response and finally lulled into sleep. It sat quiet in the cave for quite some time, before Lloyd broke the almost peaceful silence.

"Uh Kai. I don't think you will be keeping that promise after all. Its starting to snow." Lloyd told the Fire ninja while pointing to the cave entrance. The snow had already packed up to about three inches taller then when the first arrived. Winds around them was getting strong and colder and it was getting harder to see outside the cave.

"It's just a little snow. It will pass soon anyway." Kai tired to reason though he felt like it wasn't just a little snow. Zane shook his head.

"According to my readings, this is not a 'normal snow'. The winds and the fogginess following the snow indicate blizzard conditions. We can leave in these conditions, and I believe we will most very likely be snowed in." Zane pointed out in a matter-of-fact tone. Jay groaned.

"That's just great Zane. Keep up the optimism." Jay told him sarcastically. Zane just shrugged at the Lightning ninja's comment.

"Don't worry guys. We'll get out of here soon enough. We just have to sit tight and wait for help." Lloyd tells his friends and fellow ninja. The nod absently and stay silent from there. The only thing on there minds was a simple question.

What help?

!~!~!~!~!~!~! ( End ) !~!~!~!~!~!~!

Cliff-hanger. Originally I was gonna make this a oneshot, but I decided to make a two-shot instead. I wanted to give you the suspense of what will happen next while I figure out what happens next. You see, I have no idea on how I plan to finish this two-shot so I am open for ideas.

Also, I'm looking for a Beta. I'm not sure if I want one, because the Beta for my sister completely messed up her story and I don't want that to happen to me. So I need someone I can trust with my story. If you are a Beta and you are interested, PM me and we can talk. I'm not sure if I even need a Beta. What do you think? Aside from grammar and spelling mistakes its not that bad.

I'm dyslexic, but I am getting better!
