A/N: Hello there! If you are just joining us, please read the first two books so as to understand some inside jokes/ persistent questions that will come up at some point in the story. Also, thanks to RandomDragon who has agreed to let me use a title idea she had (also known as Jay suggested it!) anyways, we will actually be meeting a really cute new OC in this book. Not a she is mention in passing, an actual we meet her.

This prologue takes place a few months after the Overlord is defeated and Ninjago is still rebuilding itself. The school hasn't opened yet.

Disclaimer: I own Nothing! Except for any OC names that might be mentioned! I also own the cutie!

Prologue: Meet Koko!

~Three Months after the Final Battle~

I shifted slightly, glancing around Dr. Smith's waiting room. Misako lately has been feeling off, and had arranged a doctor's appointment to figure out why she felt ill most mornings. This is fine, except that Sensei insisted that we all go as well to support his sister-in-law and brother. Lloyd was sitting next to Garmadon on the left side, while I was stuck on his right. Sensei, Cole, Jay, and Zane were sitting across from us, while Nya sat on my other side. Garmadon suddenly cleared his throat loudly, a guilty look on his face. "Kai? About what happened back at the Temple of Fire when we first met…I was bluffing. I knew about your amnesia and wanted to get a rise out of you. Sorry."

I blinked at the sudden unexpected apology. Before I could accept though, Nya snapped. "YOU WERE BLACKMAILING MY BROTHER OVER NOTHING!?" Launching herself forward, she tried tackling the former evil lord.

Garmadon yelped as he scrambled backwards, his eyes widening in horror as he realized that Nya was just as protective of me, as she claims I am to her. Wrapping my arms around her waist, I tried hauling her away from him. Unfortunately, she was thrashing, trying to get to Garmadon. Oh well. I know how to counteract that quite easily. "Guys! Help! She's gonna hurt Garmadon if we don't do something!"

Jay responded immediately, quickly wrapping his arms around his girlfriend. Zane stood up, uncertainty dancing in his eyes. Lloyd was pulling his father behind him in a vain attempt to protect him from Nya, while Cole tried pushing himself between them. Sensei was dozing quietly in his chair, oblivious to what was going in the room.

The door leading into the different offices swung open has Dr. Smith, a middle aged brunette with sharp intelligent blue eyes, and Misako walked out. Dr. Smith froze as she stared horrified at the scrambling fight that was taking place in her waiting room. Misako didn't blink an eye as she floated over to her husband. Throwing her arms around her husband's neck, she cried out with joy. "We're having a baby!"

Thud. Garmadon fell backwards, hitting his head against the magazine rack. Of course, he wasn't the only one that fainted. Lloyd had also passed out with that announcement. Zane calmly turned to face Dr. Smith. "You don't mind that you have two new patients today, do you?"

Dr. Smith rolled her eyes skyward as she vaguely wondered why she even signed up to be the Ninjas family doctor. "Hold on. Let me get two nurses to help carry them."

~Two Months Later~

I was going over the practice book Zane gave me to help with my illiteracy when Lloyd slipped into my bedroom at our new home. Without glancing up, I attempted to write his name down. "Yes? Can I help you kid?"

"I don't want a new sibling! I like being an only child! Why does this have to happen to me?" Lloyd dramatically cried out as he flopped onto my bed.

I looked up at that, puzzled about why he was coming to me about this. Garmadon had already accepted the fact his wife was expecting and was basically doting on her, panicked that she was going to do something that will harm the baby. "Why are you asking me?"

Lloyd peeked up through his rather long bangs up at me. "Because…you know what its like to be an older brother."

I folded my arms, pushing my chair back away from my desk. "Your dad is the oldest in his family."

Lloyd scoffed. "That's different; he doesn't know what it's like to be our age."

I pinched the bridge of my nose, annoyance flaring up inside of me. "Kid…he understands. He's been our age before. Just chill alright?" Looking up to where he was chewing his lips, I sighed in defeat. "Look. It's not the big deal everyone keeps making it out to be. Just watch, your little brother is gonna ask you to teach him everything you know one day about fighting bad guys."

"Really?"

"Really." I went back to my worksheets, determined to finish them before Jay could get another chance to tease me about my lack of literacy.

"Thanks Kai!" Lloyd jumped off my bed, quickly leaving me alone once again.

~One Month Later~

I wondered vaguely if Sensei would slow down if we tell him that the hospitable didn't allow visitors to come in for another two hours. A cry of dismay escaped him suddenly as he crumbled to the ground in front of the hospitable. Never mind, he knew. Groaning, I walked over to him. "Sorry Sensei. But um, I kinda knew this was going to happen. Dr. Julian is in one of the rooms, remember? Zane told me what the visiting hours are. We can come back with him in two hours to visit her and the new baby. Come on. Nya is waiting for me back at the Garage she works at. Has something to show me apparently."

Sensei sighed as he stubbornly sat on the ground in front of the hospitable. He folded his arms as he glares at the doors. Groaning, I took a step back, before taking another step towards him. "Sensei…people are staring. Come on, we can go find Garmadon and Lloyd, see if they need any help loading the new car seat into the van. Sensei? Please? People are staring…" I glanced around nervously noticing how everyone was staring right at us.

I was about ready to just leave him, when Garmadon suddenly appeared right next to me. "Brother…you are drawing attention to yourself. And not the good kind. Come on. We'll be back later. Let's get a nice cup of tea shall we?" Garmadon pulled Sensei to his feet, gently leading him away from the hospitable.

Stepping up to him, I quietly thanked him for his help. Garmadon smiled as he slipped his arm around Sensei's shoulders. "You're welcome."

~Two Hours Later~

I must have been more excited than Sensei and Garmadon since I bolted past them to the room Misako was staying in. Pushing the door open, I rushed inside to find that Lloyd had somehow beat us here and was sitting next to his mother holding a pink bundle. Wait. Pink?!

Misako turned her head to see who was entering the room now. Brightening, she reached her hands out to Garmadon. He quickly moved past me to grasp them, a smile on his face. She nodded her head towards Lloyd, smiling. "He is your son. He used his celebrity status as the Gold Ninja to get here earlier than allowed. Have you thought of a first name yet? The nurse isn't impressed that we only have a middle name for her."

"Wait…her!?" I squawked loudly.

Lloyd immediately shushed me, a scowl crossing his face. "Kai! Quiet! You're gonna wake my new sister!" Lloyd hissed at me.

Garmadon pulled the blanket down so as to look at the sleeping girl's tiny face. "Hmm, why not Misako after her mother? She certainly has your beauty."

Misako blushed at that, not sure how to respond to the obvious attempt at flirting. Lloyd looked down at his sister, a smile crossing his face. "Koko. I'll call you Koko for short. And your gonna be safe long has I have a say in it."

Sensei walked over to meet his new niece, smiling like a maniac. I bit my cheek, wondering if maybe I shouldn't be here. Garmadon suddenly spun around to stare at me. "Kai! Whatcha ya doing over there? Get over here and meet Koko!"

I laughed quietly to myself as I moved over and peered down at the sleeping girl. She already had a small tuft of blonde hair resting on top of her head, her fingers curling into tiny fists as she slept soundly in her brother's arms. Wrinkling her tiny nose, she gave off a big yawn as she turned her head towards Lloyd's chest. Snuggling closer to her big brother, I could tell that she was going to be very close to Lloyd growing up. Reaching one finger out, I gently stroked her head. "See? Siblings are the best."

Lloyd nodded his head in agreement, his eyes faraway as he looked to his new sister. "Yeah…they are."

A/N: Done! Her full name is Misako Annabelle Garmadon. Koko for short. Also, Lloyd likes having a baby sister and everyone that it was going to be a boy until they met her and realized she was a girl. The name Koko comes from Ninjago the Movie, it's his mom's name in it. But she looks more like an older sister to me… so now she's inspiring a baby sister for Lloyd! We will see her a bit in the story, don't worry! Till next time!
