This is in honor of New Year's Eve and Day. Enjoy.

I do not own Ninjago.


(Cole's POV)

"Hurry up, Sis!" Jay yelled, "It's thirty seconds to midnight!"

"I'm coming!" Emily snapped, staggering into the living room, her arms laden with chips and sodas. I plucked a Diet Coke out of the pile, popping the lid open. She scowled at me, but just then, everyone else swarmed her, arguing over soda and chips while snatching random bags of junk food.

"Five...four...three...two...one...HAPPY NEW YEAR'S!" the people on the T.V. screamed as the multicolored ball that had been suspended by a thick cable from the news center shattered into a million shards on the pavement below.

"Happy New Year!" Kai shouted, throwing his head back and shaking it. I rolled my eyes, grinning, while Emily, Sam, Jen, and Nya started singing Auld Lang Syne.

"What's this year going to bring?" Lloyd wondered, wrapping his arm around Rachel's waist, pulling her into him.

"New enemies?" Jay asked before letting out a huge, loud belch from drinking Mountain Dew too fast. Emily beat him by drinking two Coke Vanillas and waiting for a few seconds before letting out the loudest belch I ever heard. It echoed around the entire Bounty. I'm surprised that the people on T.V. didn't ask, "What was that?"

"What? Excuse me," Emily said.

"Probably new enemies." Lloyd replied to Jay's question.

"For 2014, I do hope that you will all train harder," Sensei Wu said. Once again, we all looked at Emily, who shrugged.

"I train hard enough already," she began, "and...what the heck?" She ran to the window, looking out for a few seconds before turning around.

"Fireworks," was all she said.

"If they start a forest fire, they will hear from me," Rachel said threateningly. Jen rolled her sea blue eyes.

"Relax," she assured the Nature Kunoichi, "besides, I'll put it out."

"But the animals and plants!" Rachel protested.

"Relax," Emily said, "besides, there isn't going to be a..." Just then, there was a big explosion. Jen sighed.

"Well, Happy New Year," she said before leaping out the window towards the new fire. Kai rolled his eyes before taking off after her.

This will be an interesting year, I have no doubt about it.


Happy 2014, guys.
