Chapter 2: The Ambush
Hey everyone just as a heads up I wanted to say that I don't own Ninjago or the following characters : Kai, Cole, Lloyd, Jay, Zane, Sensei Wu, and Nya . Now enjoy chapter 2 cause this chapter is a roller coaster of delight!
Keiko's P.O.V.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!"
I woke up to the sound of my alarm. I almost pressed the snooze button when I remembered that Nya and the ninja would be here at 8:00 a.m. To help me unpack stuff. I glanced at my clock. "DARN IT! IT'S 7:30 A.M.! NYA AND THE NINJA WILL BE HERE IN 30 MINUTES!" I yelled to myself silently not wanting to wake up my sister if she was still asleep. In nearly ten minutes I got dressed, brushed my teeth, combed my hair, and ran downstairs to start eating breakfast. Surprisingly when I got downstairs, I saw my little sister (who isn't really a morning person) already eating breakfast. "I hope you didn't eat all the Cheerios already, Sarah." I joked. "No there's still some left for you." Sarah said completely missing the point of my joke. Sarah looks like me except she has hazel eyes and more blond steaks in her brown hair. She's also 3 years younger than me which means she is 14 years old. Pouring myself a bowl of cereal, I asked Sarah if mom and dad wanted to tell me anything. "Nah, they just said that they had to work overtime at their store." Sarah reported. I sighed, they were always working overtime at their store. Putting Sarah's bowl and my bowl in the dishwasher, I heard the doorbell ring and ran to the door. "That must be Nya and the ninja." I thought. Oddly, it was my sister who opened the door."I don't remember her being a fangirl of the ninja." I thought amusingly. Lloyd must've rang the doorbell because he was in front of Nya and the other guys. Another surprise was when my sister actually smiled. She never really smiles, unless she fake smiles and I know when she fake smiles! Sarah then said,"Hey guys! Come on in."
Soon we all started unpacking boxes and everyone was was asking me where things were supposed to go. By the time we finished I was exhausted. "Hey, Keiko, now since we're finished unpacking stuff, I was wondering -I mean we were wondering- if you wanted to go to the arcade for lunch." Kai seemed to stammer. "There's an arcade here?" I questioned. "Yeah! It's awesome!" Jay told me with a grin. "Jeez, Jay is almost always smiling." I thought,"and it definitely looks like him and Nya are dating or something..." "Sure! I'd love to come! You wouldn't mind if my sister came too, would you?" I asked concerningly. "Not at all." Cole said.
At the arcade, I saw Kai look at an air hockey table then he looked at me and said," I bet I can beat you!"
"I bet not!"
Eventually, the score became 7 to 2 and I had beat Kai's $$. "Oh yeah! Oh yeah!" I chanted while I did my victory dance." Hey, you two! The pizza is done!" Cole yelled. When we all sat down at the table I realized that Sarah was sitting next to Lloyd and when Lloyd whispered something to her she giggled.
After we all finished eating, Nya said," Hey, Keiko, remember that one time Kai got that sticky ball stuck on your ceiling?" I nodded my head.
(now imagine)
Ten-year-old Kai is throwing a small, sticky ball up and down in his hands in Keiko's room. Nine-year-old Nya says,"Careful, Kai, that ball is really sticky." Then nine-year-old Keiko says," Make sure you don't hit anything with it." "Don't worry I won't hit any- oops!" The sticky ball gets stuck on the ceiling. "Don't worry I'll get it down!" Kai runs out of Keiko's room and comes back with a broomstick. Kai starts to prod the ball with the broomstick. The ball falls down and gets stuck in Keiko's hair. Keiko screams.
(Back to Keiko's P.O.V.)
"-And then my dad couldn't find any scissors to cut the ball out of my hair so your dad had to come over and cut the ball out with a samurai sword. My hair looked horrible after the ball was cut out!" Keiko finished for Nya. Everyone laughed except Kai and Keiko, who were both blushing. Turning to me Sarah said,"I think I'm going to walk home now." "Okay." I told Sarah. "Bye, Sarah, it was nice meeting you." Lloyd says. "It was nice meeting you too." Sarah smiled back at Lloyd.
Kai's P.O.V.
"Bye, Kai." Keiko told me once we got to her doorstep. I had escorted Keiko to her home an hour after Sarah left. "Thanks for inviting us to the arcade." Keiko continued,"It's so hard moving to a new village." "It sounds hard enough." I reassured her," Well I guess I'll see you around. Bye." "Oh! Wait! I almost forgot!" Keiko dug her hand into her pocket and pulled out a blue piece of paper and then handed it to me."It has my phone number, e-mail, and address if you ever want to talk to me." "Thanks." I said with my heart welling up with joy because she actually gave me her phone number," Well I better leave now. Bye!"
"REEE! REEE! REEE!"
I was jerked awake by the serpentine alarm. I looked at the other guys. They were also awake. I looked at the dimly lit clock. 11:30 p.m.! "Why are snakes attacking 11:30 friggin' p.m. !" I thought. "Hey, Nya! Where did trouble strike this time?" Jay asked Nya when we got to the control room."They're at 1089 Manson street." Nya responded. "That's where Keiko lives!" I gasped.
After we got to Keiko's house we actually had to knock the door down. When we were inside, I saw about ten snakes cornering Keiko and Sarah. Keiko was in a fighting stance trying to punch and kick the snakes and kept on yelling to her wide-eyed sister to stay behind her. I quickly rushed over to the snake that was the closest to Keiko. The snake tried to hit me with his spear but I swiftly sidestepped, hooked my foot under his and flipped him over. "Thanks." I heard Keiko mutter to me. I knew I shouldn't look at her at the moment but I just couldn't fight the urge to look at her, she looked soooooo beautiful. "Kai? Ummm... Kai?" Keiko said confusingly. "What?" I asked. "I thought you were just staring at me but... nevermind." Keiko told me. "Oh..." I blushed and quickly turned around so Keiko wouldn't see me blush. Soon, we killed five serpentine and then the other five serpentine got scared and ran away. Sarah, still crouched in the corner, looked as if she were just about to faint. Then I realized she was staring at all the blood splattered on Cole's uniform. Lloyd must have realized that Sarah was looking at Cole because I heard him whisper something reassuring to her. "Th-thank you." Sarah stammered while standing up shakily. "Holy cr p! This place looks terrible. I'm going to call my parents and tell them about this. Sarah, do you want to come and talk to mom and dad?" Keiko asked. Sarah nodded looking a bit queasy.
A few minutes later, Keiko came back. " My parents wanted to ask you if Sarah and I could live with you guys for now." Keiko explained to the ninja with a hint of disappointment in her voice. "Sure." Cole said,"We have an extra spare room." "Great." Keiko said flatly,"I'll go tell my parents."
Keiko's P.O.V.
"They don't even like us. For god's sake, the won't even come to see if Sarah and I are okay!" I thought miserably. "Sarah, pack your bag! We're going to live on the Bounty for a few days!" I shouted. "Well at least Kai and Nya will be there..." I muttered to myself.
