Okay. Let's get this story on the road. Had this idea for a while, and now its out. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own Ninjago.
It was a dark and stormy night in Ninjago City. A small, hooded figure walked quickly down the sidewalks, clutching a bundle. Every now and then, the bundle would squirm.
Once the figure reached an alleyway, they turned and started walking into the dark, wet alley.
"Misako," a quiet voice said from a back entrance into a restaurant. She whirled around, one hand clutching the bundle closer to her, the other drawing a knife.
"Wu," she said, relieved, as he stepped out of the shadows. She sheathed her knife. "I can't help it, but it has to be done. I have to give him up," she said, crying, as she gently pushed the bundle into Wu's hands, "for the sake of the future of Ninjago."
Wu's eyes misted over as he accepted the bundle. "I'll do my best to raise him well. My son will become his first trainer when the time is right. Lloyd will never be alone."
"Thank you, Wu," Misako said. She removed a piece of cloth from the bundle, revealing the sleepy face of a newborn baby. The Destined One slowly opened his emerald green eyes. Misako leaned down, kissed Lloyd's forehead, than gently whispered in his ear, "I will always love you."
She came upright, and then turned to leave.
"Will I ever see you again?" Wu asked Misako.
She turned around. "When the time is right," she replied simply. With that said she turned around and left, leaving Wu to gaze down at the newborn baby.
Such a big destiny for one so small, Wu thought, will he ever understand why he was left by his mother? He shuddered at the image of what would happen if Lloyd failed in the task that he was assigned. And with that thought in mind, Wu turned and left.
Well? What do you think? Tell me in the reviews!
