Chapter I: Attraction

It was a lazy day up in the stratosphere of Ninjago, where Destiny's Bounty flew threw the clouds and the unfortunate birds that had their wings against the windshield right about now

Zane winced at the sight and sound of birds going headfirst against the thick glass. He carefully tapped the glass just to check if they're still alive.

. . .

"Ha! King me!" Jay said smug, his arms crossed over his chest as he leaned back into his chair, awaiting his eventual victory.

In a swift movement, Cole oh so proudly moved his checkers piece; deciding the fate of the match. Jay eyes almost popped out of his head as he realized he had lost to the Earth Ninja. He eagerly looked through every angle of the board to reassure if he's seeing right, but the look on Cole's face said it all.

The Ebony ninja ran his hand through his hair, a smirk on his face, "Why don't you just admit your defeat?" He dramatically suggested, taunt in every word that slipped his mouth.

Jay twitched; blood boiling and teeth gritted. "Don't you act like you do everything better!" He burst out.

"What? Me? I never…"Cole fake-sighed, pretending to feel hurt at the accusation, "Why would I need to do everything better… when I already do everything better than you? That's good enough for me." He paused, "Not that it's that big of an achievement or anything…" He further taunted, grinning wildly to the infuriated blue ninja.

Before an all-out war began in the main room, Nya and Kai had arrived.

Kai blatantly muttered out a "'Sup?" before making his way to the big screen to check up on Ninjago.

"Hey guys, what's new?" Nya greeted as she made her way to the two boys, a happy smile on her face.

Jay's anger seemed to melt away at the sight of the girl; as if she was the physical embodiment of his happiness.

That is, until Cole had to interrupt; "Oh you know; the usual. Me kicking Jay's butt." He finished with a wink in Jay's direction as Nya let out a chuckle.

Jay had mixed feelings; either to burst into a fiery rage or to dreamily sigh.

"Pardon my interruption," Zane began, as walked to the 3, from his position near the windshield, "But for the sake of the argument Nya, may I ask who you suppose is the most attractive of us, Ninjas?" He gestured towards his friends

"What!" Jay sputtered in a squeaky voice, utterly confused at Zane's inquiry. He shot a glance towards Cole who looked bewildered as well.

The Earth Ninja felt Jay's stare upon him as simply shrugged in his direction.

Nya on the other hand, had her hand to her cheek, a little bit embarrassed at the question. "I-I'm sorry, you want me to choose… the handsome one…?" She clarified.

"Affirmative." Zane ensured, "Upon observation on the male battles for dominance over the other; I have come to a conclusion that 94.03% rely on their physical appearance for their judge." He calmly explained.

Nya nodded slowly, breathing out a 'Oh, that's nice.', while Jay looked like he was still trying to translate the first few words.

The girl looked over the ninjas, careful eyes viewing them. The blue ninja, however, froze upon both realization and Nya's careful stare.

Jay screamed in his head; 'Oh, man! She's gonna answer? D-Do I wanna hear this…? Maybe she'll say she finds me the hot one… yeah… and I'll ask her out, and she'll fall in love with me and- … wait… WHAT IF SHE DOESN'T? What if she thinks someone else is better, and he'll smooth her over, aw geez! I can't-"

"Hmm… well, maybe Cole."

It seemed as if Jay's world has crumbled upon himself; and was quite sure he was ready to curl up and die.

"C-C-C-C-Cole…? COLE?" He stuttered out, in pure disbelief. His eyes were wide and his jaw nearly dropped to the floor.

Cole honestly looked surprised too, genuine yet subtle shock in his face.

Nya didn't seem to notice, as she still looked beyond, with a curious expression.

"Yeah, well, my brother doesn't count… 'cause… well, he's my brother. And Cole is pretty handsome, I guess." She shrugged and a look of nonchalance, unaware that Jay felt utterly heartbroken and was ready to burst into tears at his crazy visions of Cole and Nya babies.

"But you know…" She muttered out, a sly smile on her face,

The 3 looked curiously at her, especially Jay who was wondering what more she could add to that in fear…

Nya glanced at Jay, a slight giggle escaped her lips, and a cherry color warmed her cheeks. The woman merely turned on her heel and walked towards the exit…

"…It's the funny ones that I'm really attracted to." She finished with a short giggle.

And before she was completely out of sight; "Did I mention I love blue too? It's my favorite color."

. . .

At that, Jay felt his heart rise like a hot air balloon, a goofy grin and blush plastered on his face.

Cole gave looked at the lovestruck ninja; gleaming with hope. He shook his head, "Oh, Jay…" He breathed out in amusement.

However, Zane had a look of disappointment, he clarified;

"You mean… I'm not… then handsome one…?"

Aw, poor Zane! Don't worry; I'll always love you~

Anyways, thanks for reading; and leave a comment if you have any suggestions for future chapters. I mean, why would I even write if no one's gonna read? And of course, the more people who like it; the more I'll make it juicier.

But let's be honest; Cole is pretty handsome. Honestly; that was the first thing I noticed. You may not agree, but hey: He's decent, at the least. I couldn't decide anymore from that. 'Cause Jay is more of extremely cute than he is hot or attractive… Zane is just oh so lovable~ I just want to make him a sweater out of my love! Kai is a mystery to me though; I can't find the words to describe it.

Anyways, thanks again for readying, and please suggest for further topics.
