Chapter 3

(Destiny's Bounty)

Lloyd's pov

I walked out onto the deck. I stared up into the sky. The only one left in my family. A tear formed in my eye. I knew I would be forever alone. I closed my eyes. "Stay strong Lloyd, ninja don't cry" I said to myself.

I went over to the rail and looked down to see Jay, Nya and some sexy girl come towards the bounty. She was breath taking, her eyes, her hair, her lips; I think I finally know why Jay acts the way he dose around Nya now. I helped them up onto the bounty. The other three rushed out of the bridge to see what was going on. "Who's that?" Cole asked pointing to the most beautiful girl ever. "My name's Sonja Walker" she replied to him. I couldn't keep my stare off of her. My heart pumped blood all around my body, over a thousand miles per hour. The feeling. I could see a hint of a smirk on Jay's face. Oh crap.

Kai's pov

"I-I need the-the bathroom" Lloyd said as rushed off to it. "What's that all about?" Cole asked. "Well, when Lloyd seen..." Zane said but I intruded him "It was a rhetorical question, Zane" he replied. "Are you guys always like this?" Sonja asked. "Yah, they're pretty much are" Nya replied to her. Sonja gave a small smirk for a few seconds and it disappeared like it was never there to begin with.

"What's wrong?" I asked her. "He's back" she replied. "Who's back" Cole asked. "The thing that gave me this" Jay pointing to the scare over his right eye. "I thought you said you got from an accident in your parents junkyard" Cole question. "Well, I lied" he snapped back. "Then what happened?" Nya asked him in the most censured voice I ever heard from her. Jay looked at Sonja. "Tell them everything" she replied. "Everything?" he asked. "Everything" she replied back to him without hesitation. Jay gave a heavy sigh. "Ok, then" he said.

Jay's pov

"I was around eight at the time, Sonja six. "Edna, Jay, great to see you again" Aunt Fiona said as she saw us come. "Sis, great to see you again" my mom replied to her as she gave her sister a hug. "Where are Sonja and Edward?" I asked my aunt. "In the forest" she replied back. "Go play with them, Jay" my mom said to me. "Ok" I replied to her."

"I ran off to the back of their house and into the forest. I saw them playing in the trees. "Hey, bro, bet you can't climb this far up" Sonja boosted. "Can too, just watch me" he replied cheekily to her. He started to make his way up the trees. "Hey, what are you two doing?" I yelled at them from the ground. "Hey, cous" Edward said to me "didn't see you there". He jumped down from high up in the trees, Sonja fallowed his actions. Edward was fourteen at the time. He had light brown hair, just past neck level."

"Then I started to hear a voice calling me. "You two hear that, someone must me lost in there" I said to them. "I didn't hear anything, cous" Edward replied to me. The voice was pulling me towards it. "C'mon this way" I said to them and ran off deep into the forest. "Hey, wait up" Sonja yelled at me."

"My two cousins ran after me until I stopped running. There was this enormous bowler about the size of a car. The voice said to push and so I tried but fail. "Help me push this" I asked. "Fine" Edward replied. "Well do, cous" Sonja replied. We pushed the bowler aside, revelling a dark passage way."

"We began to make our way down it. "Maybe we should go" Edward said censured. "Why, all I want is a little company" a dark evil voice said. We turned round to see this thing. He was wearing sliver armour with purple lining, his face was as back as evil it's self, with red eyes and purple marks. "What is that?!" I yelled in fear. "I am Cynder. Let me show you why" it said as its hand lit up in this purple fire."

"He grabbed sense I was closes to him. "Put my cousin down!" Edward yelled. "Make me" he replied. I was shaking with fear. He put his fiery hand closer and closer to my face. Then Sonja tripped him, only letting the fire just touch my face, leaving the area around my eye burned. I fell with the pain of it."

"Now he had a hold of Sonja. "Leave my sis alone!" Edward yelled at Cynder and charged at him. He grabbed Sonja and helped me up and we ran up the stairs to the exit. Cynder was hot on our tails. We were near the top when Edward looked at me. "From now on you're her brother" he said and handed me Sonja."Wait what?" I questioned. He pushed me out of the passage way, out into the forest."

"Then the temple thing collapse with that thing and Edward inside. "Edward" Sonja said weakly. Tears filled my eyes, hurting the burned side of my face. I started to feel weak and fainted. When I woke up I was in a hospital, looking over me was my family".

"I never forget that day" I said to them. The look of shock on everyone's faces. I saw tears form in my cousins eyes which I knew my own copied.
