Father's Love-Leaving You Chapter 2, a ninjago fanfic

Chapter 2-Definitely NOT what I was planning.

Jay's P.O.V.

I was flying. Gliding and soaring over the clouds. Weaving my way between buildings. My arms were stretched out like wings. I could feel the wind brushing past my cheeks. No weapons to weigh me down. And best of all, no lessons to crowd up my day. I felt a light tap on my shoulder. And suddenly, I was hurling toward the ground, the sky growing darker until...

BAM! I hit my head on the desk above me. What was I doing here? The memory of the day before crashed into me. Zane, power source, tree, cave. Of course, I was an idiot and decided to sleep under a table.

"Jay? Are you awake yet?" I heard Nya's voice coming from above. "Yeah," I yawned. "What time is it?" I called up. There was a pause. "About 8:00."

"Phew," I breathed, swiping a hand across my forehead. I raced up the steps. All that flying made me hungry! Upstairs, the others had gotten on the Destiny's Bounty. I had wanted to stay behind, and of course, sleep under a table. I scratched the back of my head, why did I do that?

Lloyd, Cole, and Kai were siting on one side of the dinner table while Zane, Nya, and I sat on the other. Sensei Wu and Misako had left us to go shopping. "What took you so long?" Lloyd asked, lightly punching me in the side. "Had a great dream," I yawned again. "Was it about Nya?" I heard Cole snicker. I glared at him. "No, I was flying. And nothing was holding me back!" Nya tilted her head. "Sounds like your true potential."

"Well, I for one have something to say," Kai stood up. "Those crystal things yesterday were great! I even took a piece back." I gasped as he held up a part of the glowing rock. "Uhh, those could have hurt you! Weren't you careful?" Kai tossed his piece to the other hand. "Of course I was! When have I ever done something impulsive?" Silence. And I swore that I heard crickets chirping. Kai snorted and sat down. "Don't worry, it's safe," he mumbled as he passed the rock to Lloyd. We all shared a good laugh and Kai began to sulk.

When we finished eating, we went our separate ways. Kai and Lloyd went further south to look for Zane's power source while Zane and Cole went to the west, and Nya and I went east, toward Ninjago City. Sensei and Misako went together to the north.

"Sunset?" I asked. The others nodded. "Dinner would be even better," Kai suggested. I shared a glance with Nya, we both shook our heads. "Sorry, I can't go for dinner. I wanted to eat at Skylor's place tonight. Besides, we are going to Ninjago City," Nya nudged my arm as she spoke. I got her message and glanced at Kai. He was flustered and was turning red. "Hey Kai, why don't you go tonight instead?" Nya continued slyly. We laughed again. "F-Fine. I'll go," Kai muttered and he nearly jumped out of the room. Lloyd rolled his eyes and went after him.

"I should go as well," Cole said. "Zane's outside." He stepped out the door. Nya and I glanced at each other. "Are we still eating out?" Nya shook her head. "We should just leave Kai alone. Besides, I've always wanted to get him a girlfriend so that he won't bother me." I snickered. Kai was so overprotective of Nya, but at least he was getting better. "We should probably go as well."

On our way to the city, we stopped about every five minutes to check for something. A sign? A clue? A symbol? On our first stop, we found another tree with Dr. Julien's symbol on it. We continued on our way, and on the second stop we found the same thing. "We should probably stop moving and just find the trail," Nya suggested. We left our dragons and continued on foot.

We trudged through the white snow, the wind blowing in our faces. It was hard to see anything else, apart from the tall trees. Suddenly, I thought I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I tapped Nya's shoulder. "Hey, you go on ahead, I'm going to look at something." She had a worried expression, but agreed. The dark spot grew into a small hut. Somebody lives out here? I got closer and gasped. Zane needed to see this.

Wow! A horrible cliff-hanger! I probably won't update this very much until October. (you know when that is!) I also go through writing moods. This is posted during the school-year though. Anyway, thanks for reading and staying with me!
