While I was writing my 1st fan fiction, I got an idea for another. Basically it's placed after the ninja defected the time brothers (I'm making it that Wu isn't lost in time and Pixal is still around since I only watched season 7 while I was writing this) (I haven't finished season 6 and I haven't been able to watch it and I've only seen up to the part where Ronin betrays them) and if you've read my 1st fanfic 'The Pink Sister' you would remember Crystal, well she's in this one too but this time, she's 6 years old (she starts 5 but she has her birthday in the story) (so there's no Crystal x Lloyd). Basically, Lou gets cancer (sorry) and now it's up to Cole to look after his little sister. Hope you enjoy.
Chapter 1:
Cole's POV:
It was a calm day in Ninjago and we decided to do some training,
"I wonder what the next threat will be." Jay said to the group,
"Well I hope it's not too soon, I do want a break." Nya commented back and the group agreed. Soon, my phone started to ring,
"Who's that?" Kai asked,
"The hospital." I answered, confused as I pressed 'answer', "Hello?"
"Hello Mr Brookestone." The person on the other end of the line greeted.
Kai's POV:
Cole stood off to the side and talked on the phone. I tried to listen in but I could only here Cole's side of the conversation,
"Is he ok? Yep. Ok. I can do that. Yeah we got a spare room. I can handle it. Afraid not. Yep. Yep. Yep. Got it thanks. Thank you and please take care of dad. You too. Bye." Cole said as he hanged up the phone,
"Is your dad ok?" I asked,
"No. Dad's gotten…cancer." Cole admitted with is his head hanging,
"I'm sure he'll get better." Nya reassured Cole with a kind smile,
"Yeah, I hope." Cole answered as Sensei Wu walked out and Cole walked over to him, "Um Sensei. Is that spare room still available?" he asked,
"Why?" Wu asked back and for some reason, Cole explained his reason quietly so none of us could hear, "Of course. It is your responsibility. You can also do the grocery shopping while you're out, Kai you will assist him." Wu instructed,
"Yes Sensei." I responded,
"Thank you Sensei." Cole said while Wu ducked inside to grab the shopping list and money,
"Why do you require the spare room?" Zane asked,
"You guys will see why later." Cole answered.
Wu gave us the money and the list and we headed off on our dragons.
Cole's POV:
After we headed off, I turned to Kai,
"We need to head somewhere before we hit the shops." I called to him,
"Where?" Kai called back,
"You'll see." I called and we headed off.
Soon we were at the front of Ninjago Primary School,
"A school?" Kai questioned but I said nothing in return. We walked to where the grade 1 classes were and walked to room 2.
"Hello. Cole am I right?" The teacher spoke to me,
"Yes. Are we in the right room?" I asked,
"Yes. The hospital called me, I'm sorry to hear what happened but no one has told Crystal yet." She explained,
"It's alright, I'll tell her later." I replied and the teacher turned to the class,
"Crystal!" she called. I guess that was her system to make sure all the kids were safe.
Kai's POV:
I had so many questions, why were we at a school and who is Crystal? After the teacher called out Crystal's name, a little girl with blonde, curly hair and blue eyes came from around the corner. She had pink and white sneakers, blue jeans and a pink t-shirt that had a cat on it and said 'check meow-t' on it. Jay would like that shirt. Her hair was pulled into a high ponytail and she also had a silver chain with a pink heart pendent and a big beaded bracelet. As soon as she saw Cole, her face lit right up as she gasped,
"COLE!" she called as she ran over to Cole and jumped into his arms and Cole hugged her tight,
"Hey little dancer." Cole replied so I guess this was Crystal,
"Is that your daughter or something?" I asked,
"I'm not his daughter. I'm his sister." Crystal giggled,
"You have a sister?" I asked, as Cole has never told us of having any siblings, "Why didn't you tell us?"
"Because it no ones' business." Cole replied, "Go and grab your stuff, you're staying with me for a while." Cole explained,
"AWSOME!" Crystal exclaimed, not even thinking about it, before grabbing her stuff.
"Is that why you wanted the spare room?" I asked,
"She does need her own space." Cole explained,
"I'm ready." Crystal announced then Cole grabbed her hand and walked out of the classroom, "Where's the car?" she asked and Cole just had a smirk across his face,
"You know how you always wanted to fly?" Cole asked Crystal and I could already see what was going to happen,
"Yeah." Crystal answered, still bouncing with exciment to see her brother, boy she as allot of energy Cole summoned his dragon and Crystal's face lit up, "A DRANGON?" she called as Cole helped her up as I summoned my own.
Cole's POV:
We flew up and Crystal stuck her arms out like she was flying on her own but of course I had a good grip on her.
"We need to head to the shops 1st ok." Cole told her,
"Ok." Crystal replied. I love my sister, she may only be 5 but I could never imagine life without her. We landed at the supermarket and headed in after our dragons disappeared, which Crystal thought was amazing.
"What's 1st Kai?" I asked, for I gave Kai the list before we headed out,
"Milk." Kai read,
"Chocolate milk?" Crystal asked, she does love chocolate,
"Sorry sis. Normal milk." I told her as she did a fake pout, which I laughed at which made her smile. We were almost done with the shopping when we passed the dessert aisle,
"Cole. Can we please get cookies?" Crystal asked, giving me a great big grin, cookies do sound good, then I remembered,
"You know, one of the people who lives with us, Zane, he is baking cookies tonight and trust me, they are delicious." I told her,
"Of course you remember what's for dinner and dessert." Kai rolled his eyes,
"What? Zane makes good food." I replied,
"And Cole as a big belly for eating lots of food." Crystal stated as she slapped her hands on stomach multiple times as she stuck it out. Me and Kai laughed at her as she looked at me and smiled,
"Yep." I confirmed and Crystal smiled at me.
We finished up the shopping and headed back home.
We got home and the others were still training outside and when they saw Crystal, they started to asked questions,
"Cole, Kai. Why do you have a kid with you?" Lloyd asked,
"I'm not a kid. I'm a child. I kid is a baby goat." Crystal said and she and Jay laughed,
"Nice one." Jay commented as he gave my sister a high five, "Nice shirt too."
"Thank you. I love puns." Crystal explained and Jay smiled and we all knew what that meant,
"Jay. If you pun, I'll knock you out." I threatened,
"Why?" Crystal asked,
"He puns too often." I explained,
"So what you're saying is that if he puns…you'll pun-ish him." Crystal smirked, clever kid, and Jay started to laugh and scowled at him,
"She said it, not me." Jay said. I went to put the shopping away, and Crystal was helping me.
"I see this is our new guest." Wu stated as he entered the kitchen,
"Yes Sensei. Crystal this is Sensei Wu, Sensei this is my little sister Crystal,
"Hello Crystal" Wu greeted,
"Hello Sency…Sency…Sency. ARG!" Crystal tried to say 'Sensei' but was getting frustrated with herself,
"You may just call me Wu." Sensei explained for she wasn't one of his students,
"Ok. Hello Wu." Crystal grinned,
"I'm sure you'll take care of her." Wu stated to me,
"Of course Sensei." I replied as he walked off.
"Why do you call him that?" Crystal asked,
"Because you know how I'm a ninja?" I started and Crystal nodded, "Well a ninja's teacher is called a Sensei and Sensei Wu is my teacher so I call him Sensei. We all do."
"So if I was a ninja, I would have to call him that." Crystal stated,
"Yeah." I confirmed.
