Chapter 1
As I run down the endless red and brown halls of Destiny's Bounty I stop right after I turned around the corner of the hall, I stay there like the stealthy ninja I am, or well I pretend to be. I must not be a good one because not even one minute after I was there I was tagged.
"Tag! Your it!" Said my best friend.
I don't know what my mind is playing on me I am not even 10 yet and I have the 'like like' feelings about him. I don't know if it was his blonde hair or his calming ocean blue eyes that make me want to melt but still we were both 9 years old both too young to date.
"Hey no fair Lloyd I wasn't even here for what 30 seconds." I said with a mix of annoyed and anger.
"Ha All's fair in love and war. And this Lilly is war to me."
"To you maybe, but I'm tired for now let's go raid your freezer from all the ice cream with this awesome new game I brought." With not even 2 seconds after I said that he pulled my arm to the kitchen and living room to play.
While we were doing our ice cream video game combo rush Lloyd's Uncle Wu was sitting meditating in front of his smoke screen. He saw 6 ninja all different colors, a black, a blue, a white, a red, a green, and…a grey one. When Sensei Wu saw it, the green one was older and Lloyd is only 9 so he is years away from this from happening but Wu still paid attention. The red, white, blue, and black ninja where in a pile on top of each other looking injured and bleeding. While on the other side of the room was Lord Garmadon with a grin on his face, the green ninja was next to the four hurt ninja but unconscious. While the grey ninja was holding a Bo Staff determined to protect the ninja's friends. Standing there ready to fight whatever comes their way. Then the smoke screen ends without an ending.
He was sitting there thinking on what to do. Even if the event is in the far future Wu needs to have something set aside like a plan. Without just an extra minute to spare Wu called for a girl that was older than me.
"Nya!" Wu said with a calm but firm voice.
She ran in to the room with a face of concern. "What's wrong Sensei?"
"Have the ninja return from the mission yet?"
"…No sensei they haven't yet. I am beginning to worry a little."
"Then let's go find them. Let's have Lloyd stay behind for safety measures."
While we were playing video games we heard footsteps, Lloyd gave me a hand signal which means 'duck and hide' so I did behind the big TV system. There entered Lloyd's Uncle Wu and a black haired teenage girl in a red dress, I eavesdrop on the conversation to get a since of what is going to happen.
"Lloyd. Nya and I are going to look for the ninja in the city, we need you to stay here and watch the ship while we are gone." Wu said
"If anything happens just call me on my cell phone that is in my suit. Alright with you?" this Nya I guessed said.
Lloyd made a sad face because he never went on missions, but that quickly change when he realized I was still hiding. "Alright Uncle, see you soon."
After they left the room I sit there quietly behind the TV system until… "BOO!"
"Aaahhh!" I said scared.
"Ha ha ha ha ha. You should've seen your face Lilly; it was priceless with a capital P." Lloyd said while laughing. I punched him playfully on his arm as we laughed until Lloyd face suddenly changed from playing to his 'I have an idea' face.
"I have an idea… come on let me show you something." He said. Then he pulled my arm, I was hesitant for a minute before I let him take me to what he wanted to show me. We walked along the long hallway to a door, a closed door.
"I have wanted to show you this room for a while but when everyone is here there is someone always in there." He said a little happy. When Lloyd opened the door I saw a giant computer mound on the wall with a ton of computer boards along with the steering wheel, a table, and a few chairs.
"Whoa… this looks so cool, like you get to see this room every day." I said with a big smile on my face.
"Yeah I know. I wanted to show you this room for about, oh I don't know 2-3 months now, I knew you love the view of heights and to be around technology…" He didn't finish his sentence as his face grows a little pink and it looks kind of cute a bit. "So do you like it Lilly? I mean like the view of it." He said in a soft tone kind of like he is trying to please me on purpose. I feel my cheeks get a little warmer indicating that I am blushing just a little. As I pull a strand of light caramel brown hair back behind my ear as I lightly smile as he smiles back. The silence be came over whelming to me, Lloyd pointed over to the big window by the steering wheel. I walked over to the window and just stared out of it. It was wow I mean like a breath taking WOW. Two more minutes past of silence just staring out the window in awe when I finally got the breath to speak.
"This… is amazing Lloyd… just beautiful." I said in a whisper but loud enough for him to hear.
"It gets even better…close your eyes and take my hand." He said in a soft cool tone. I did as he said and when he grabbed my hand he slowly led me down one of the long halls filled with suspense and curiosity on where he is taking me. When we stopped he took me up the stairs, but I stumbled a little slowly one step at a time. "We are almost there Lilly; I think you will like what you will see." Another hall and two more sets of stairs then we stopped once more. "Now open your eyes." I did what he said and I saw a plain red door, Lloyd opened it and took my hand, and walked us through onto a deck.
The wind was strong and powerful and it wrapped around me just right, I always felt the greatest when the wind blows around me I feel happy, calm, at peace.
"Thank you…thank you Lloyd for showing me this spot it's wonderful up here with all the wind blowing around just right." I said in a calm and happy voice.
"It was my pleasure Lilly I knew you would like it." He said with his voice calm
"Now Lloyd do me a favor… close your eyes." I said calmly. He did as I asked and closed his eyes. I grabbed his hands and intertwined our fingers. I leaned in slowly and I was slightly hesitant but I followed through. I leaned in and slowly put my lips upon his cool cheek as I feel it get warmer slightly as he blushes and I slowly pull my lips away and I smile lightly as he opens his eyes he smiles not even two minutes later he kissed me on my cheek it was my turn to blush as he pulls his lips away that's when I found out he was not just Lloyd but he is my Lloyd, the boy I love.
