"I wonder why the ninja want to meet us at this large house?" My partner Nikki asked as the two of us walked up the driveway of a large house. Above the door was a sign that said; "ONHQ"
"What in the world is ONHQ?" I thought aloud as Nikki rang the doorbell.
"Jump up, kick back, whip around and spi-"
Cole opened the door, cutting off the Weekend Whip doorbell.
"Hey, Cole." I smiled as Cole brought the two of us into the house.
In the house, we walked into a large living room. Kai, Lloyd, and Jay were playing video games in front of the tv. Zane was laying on the couch reading a book.
Nikki almost instantly ran over and sat next to Kai and watched the video game.
I just stood next to Cole until the doorbell rang again. Cole left to answer the door.
A few minutes later, Brianna and Maddie ran into the room. Brianna sat next to Jay and watched the video game with Nikki. Maddie pounced on Zane, startling him and sending his book flying. Maddie quickly stood up and and dusted herself, trying to hide the fact that she was blushing.
The book suddenly stopped flying midair, right before it hit Lloyd on the back of the head. Maddie and I stared in amazement as the book twirled and flipped in midair.
Lloyd turned his head and smiled at the floating book.
"Alright, bro," Lloyd called to the book, "Stop messing with these girls heads and making them believe the book is flying."
"'Bro?'" I wondered about who Lloyd was talking to. "Will?"
A boy with chocolate brown hair and green eyes appeared out of thin air, holding the book in one grey gloved hand.
"Will? Never heard of him."The boy smiled and looked at me. "The name's Kyle. Kyle Garmadon."
I looked at him like he was crazy. "Um, Garmadon has only two sons."
"I know." The boy still smiled. "I'm surprised that a pretty little lady like you knows too."
"Pretty little lady?" I questioned. "I'm a ninja."
"So am I."
"Of what? Invisability and annoyance?"
"Wow. That was so funny, I forgot to laugh." He stepped closer to me, one hand reaching for a large hammer that hung on the boy's belt. "I'm the Ninja of Phantoms, leader of the apprentic team."
"The apprentice team?" I just glared at him, "Apprentices of who? The Overlord?"
The boy's face turned angrier. In a flash, he had me pinned to the wall, a gun held at my head. "Don't EVER mention that heartless creature around me. And, trust me, you don't want to mention him around my girl or her brother either." He let me go and put away his gun on the opposite side of his belt from the hammer. "They're very sensitive about it."
Kai had gotten up from the video game to see what was going on. He and Cole started whispering to each other while watching us.
When they finished talking they looked at us.
"Um... Anyone know where Mikaela is?" Cole asked right before the doorbell rang for a third time. "Spoke too soon." He left to answer the door.
"Nikki, Brianna, Maddie, Allison, and Kyle, can you all follow me please?" Kai asked as he headed towards the hallway. I'm guessing I wouldn't get a choice since everyone else was following.
Kai led us to a large room with a large screen. On the screen were pictures of nine teens about our ages. One picture was of Kyle.
Kai pressed a button on the keypad and pictures of Brianna, Nikki, Maddie, Mikaela, and me appeared.
Mikaela rushed in to see the pictures. "Whoa! That's us!"
"Yes, it is, Mikaela." Cole told her as he entered the room and stood next to Kai. "The five of you have a very important mission..."
