If You have tried to relock and run into the "Boot image destroyed/corrupted" with a big red triangle on it. Then

Head over to Giovix92's guide relock section. It explains how to fix it. In a nutshell you need to unlock your bootloader again and flash the stock boot.img. If you have locked your bootloader, then to boot into fastboot press vol up + down + power button.
