Authors Notes: If you haven't read Distant Land you won't understand this Fic at all. This was supposed to be called Typsy Angel, but it just didn't feel right.

Red Lantern Light

Chapter 1

New Years

Hooping and hollering could be heard up on the cliffs. It would echo along the caverns, which would start to make a ghostly noise upon the valley where the Ninja called home.

Nya sat with Ty on her lap and her fine hair being brushed over her back. The young daughter of a nindroid looked on at the pink sky as the last signs of the last day of the old year left them. All she could do is stare out over the valley below them. She wasn't to sure about this party. She had seen them during Christmas and it was slightly scary. Ending with Lloyd having to tell them to go to bed because they were being to rough. Mostly because they agreed whomever was strong enough got the last piece of Christmas Pudding. Ty ended up getting it while they were fighting. Their loss.

She looked up at Nya who was humming a tiny tune she herself was unsure about. She was asked by Zane to reflect over the past while getting ready. She was to tell them what she was most thankful for during that year. Ty smiled to herself and looked back out over the valley where she was growing up. It had been a solid year now since she had came to live with them.

"You ready?" Nya asked putting a bit of make up on the young girl. She looked down at herself and then nodded her head. Nya had put a thick winter Kimono on her, and put her hair up. It was New Years Eve and they were going to the festival. She walked out onto the porch with Nya. Ty watched as her female figure walked over to her brother and Jay who were fawning over how beautiful she was.

"Wow...pretty..." Someone said. Ty looked around surprised at the exclamation. She wasn't to sure about beauty, or what it really meant to be pretty. She was always wearing armor, or thick clothing to keep her body out of the harsh sun, or fridged cold. She had never wore anything like this before. So when she turned around she saw herself in the window and realized that she was in fact looking at herself in the reflection. The bathroom mirror was up to high for her to see.

"You think so?" She asked turning to see who spoke those words. Her blushing face probably went fully crimson when she realized it was Lloyd. She had a crush on him, and he had a crush on her. It was as far as they've ever gone. She was pretty sure it was love anyways. Or another feeling similar to wanting to eat chocolate at break neck speeds to see just how much you could eat.

"Yeah." Lloyd said holding out his hand to escort her to the festival. Zane had met with Pixal and Mr Borg down the hill a little so Lloyd got to escort her down the hill with Cole.

Ty gasped when she felt someone shift her hair a little and put a pin in it. Ty looked around at the reflection again and saw the golden pin with a bright blue flower on it. It sat in her hair so perfectly. She looked around at Cole.

"Thank you." Ty said

"His mother had one quite like it." Lou said smiling down at the young girl who knew to be more a grand daughter then just a niece. They all doted on her as if she were theirs.

"We all ready?" Kai asked looking up at the people on the porch as they made their way down.

The lights lead the way toward the festival. It left the streets in a red hugh, but it was soft light so it didn't hurt the actual spectrum of clothing.

Zane looked up when his family came into view. He looked up to see his young child talking feverishly with the others about dinner. Echo had made dinner with Zane and Ty. Tys cooking at improved greatly all except the cake. Much to Coles disappointment, was dropped on the floor accidentally. Ty ended up with cake from her hips down. It had fallen through the plate and ended up all over the floor. The young girl just stood there having heard Coles gasp of horror. She had made the cake just for him.

"You should have seen her face dad. I had never seen her look so disappointed. She looked up at me with her bottom lip sticking out." Cole said his large hand was holding hers. Her hand was so small in his.

"Yes if it weren't for the second surprise cake I had made just in case of fault Im sure she would have cried." Echo said looking down at his niece. His smile disappeared however seeing that she wasn't smiling at all at this mention.

Zane saw the same thing knowing perfectly well that the reason for this face was because she showed an emotion she wasn't able to control. She never cried...never. He was slightly confused as to why she wouldn't show emotion like other people, he knew she didn't really know what love was, she didn't hold back when displaying displeasure about someone, or even pain. But heaven forbid if she was supposed to cry.

"Zane...did I say something wrong?" Echo asked watching Ty quicken her pace to stand beside Mr. Borg. She tended to remove herself from anything she didn't want to hear.

"I think Tys having a teenage moment." Zane said looking at the others for hopeful confirmation. Kai shrugged his shoulders and nodded.

"Yeah Nya had these moments a lot." Kai said

"Yes and I felt very alienated because of those moments. I didn't exactly have anyone other then Kai to talk to about it, and you see how he is."

"Hey!" Kai exclaimed, but with a huge smile on his face.

Ty sighed looking down at her hand, it rested on Borgs hand. Borg looked around at his grand daughter understanding almost instantly that it had nothing to do with the cake at all, it had everything to do with being able to make someone happy. The exclamation that Cole made must have made her feel very bad about dropping the cake. Borg overturned his hand and took hers in his.

"I'm sure he would have enjoyed the cake Ty. Did it at least thank you for making it for him?" Borg asked. Ty took a deep breath and shook her head. "Shame." Borg turned his head to glare at Cole. The first time Cole ever seen any kind of glare out of Borg. the man seemed very determined to always be happy.

"So it was my mess up." Cole said and looked on at his niece. "I know...as an apology I'll take you with me on my hick this summer. We'll go toward the peaks of destiny!" He pointed to a mountain. "Its easy going, and will help you with leg work." Cole said making Ty smile.

"Zane? Have you heard Ty laugh lately?" Jay asked of course he'd be concerned with that. Zane shook his head at his comedian friend. Jays shoulders slumped. He felt something was a bit off about her at the moment.

"I suspect she's holding something in." Zane said looking at his brother.

"Perhaps it would be best if she did have a good cry?"

"Not tonight though...tonight is for fun." Lloyd said walking past everyone and smiled at Ty holding out his hand. She took it and kept walking and gasped when they rounded a corner. They could see the many stalls selling foods, and merch.

Lloyd watched Tys face break into the biggest grin he ever saw on it. Which was saying a lot since she was hardly ever surprised, and very often doesn't smile to much. It was almost like she didn't know what her facial features were supposed to do. She turned to Lloyd and giggled. Lloyd felt his heart flip flop at the sound. To him they sounded like bells.

Zane watched the Green Ninja and his daughter walk down the festival street. Long since giving up on the fact that he was mad about those two liking one another. Specially after Borg told him 'at least you know who he is, and that he's a good kid' She could have liked a bad boy who was out for trouble. Zane sighed and looked at Pixal who was holding onto his arm. She had a purple and white kimono with an orange flower on the bottom. Her hair was done differently too. She looked at him and blushed. He leaned down kissing her cheek.

"You look beautiful again." He said

"Oh? Perhaps I should stop that." She said playfully. Zane shook his head playing her game.

"No, I think that would be impossible." He said and looked ahead for a second and realized that he couldn't see where Ty had gone. Pixal caught onto his panic and looked around too.

"Ty?" She looked around and then at the others. "Have any of you seen Ty?"

"Does she have her cell?" Cole asked

"No...we don't exactly have a place to put it with these things." Nya said

"Shes with Lloyd isn't she?" Kai asked dialing Lloyds phone. It began to ring...and ring. Kai finally got his voice mail and grumbled.

"Its to loud out here. I don't think he'll hear." Jay said running forward. "Lets just fan out here and come back here in an hour." He ran ahead with Nya on his tail.
