Lloyd POV
Don't panic, Lloyd.
I tried to tell myself to stay calm.
We're surrounded, Kai's injured, and I think we're about to be killed. Don't tell me to not panic!
It didn't work.
I was freaking out. I stared at the assassins surrounding us. That girl who had found us, she looked familiar. As if I had seen her somewhere before. I couldn't quite put my finger on it though.
"Everyone, come examine the ship with me. Silver, tie them up and guard them," Crowe instructed, ushered the Crows away. Wait, Silver?! No wonder she looked familiar! I saw her picture. Kai and my parents seemed to realize too.
Silver grabbed some rope and bound my hands behind my back. "Silver?" I asked. She didn't answer, just tightened the ropes. "Silver, do you remember me?" I tried.
"That's a strange question to ask, seeing as we've never met," she remarked sourly. She seemed satisfied with the ropes, as she moved on to Kai. But I saw her hesitate and move to Mom instead. She felt sympathy for him! I realized, Because of his shoulder!
"Silver," Mom tried, looking pleadingly into Silver's deep purple eyes. "I'm your mother. Please tell me you remember."
Silver dropped the rope. She seemed to be considering the possibility. Then she quickly regained her composure. "You lie," she growled, picking up the rope again. "Silas took me off the streets, saving me. He saved the two year old girl, wandering alone, and turned her into a strong eighteen year old."
"That's not true!" Dad cried. "You were in an orphanage for protection until you were eight, then Crowe kidnapped you! I'm your father, I should know!"
"I suppose that you're my twin then?" She asked me sarcastically.
"Close; I'm your little brother. Ten years old. Well, sixteen at the moment," I explained, hoping she would believe us.
Silver shook her head as she finished tying up Mom. "You all think you can take advantage of me. Trick me into letting you go. But you're wrong! I'm smart enough to know who's trustworthy or not." She moved to Dad, starting to tie him up now.
"We're doing the complete opposite, actually," Kai muttered. "We're trying to save you from these lunatics. They're the ones taking advantage of you. They probably put a spell on you or something, so you'd forget your parents."
"Shut up," Silver hissed, not making eye contact. Kai shakily stood up, and carefully walked towards her. Her eyes narrowed the closer he got. Once she was satisfied with Dad's bonds, she turned to face Kai. "Sit down. The only reason you're not tied up is because I felt pity for you, but that'll change in a second."
"You know you won't do that. You said it yourself, you felt pity. Assassins don't have feelings. You're not meant to be a Crow," Kai said, quietly.
"Shut up!" Silver screamed, and suddenly Kai was floating off the ground, struggling in midair. Before he could manage a 'What the?!' Silver had cringed and he dropped back onto solid ground. "I- You saw nothing!" She demanded, then swiftly strode out of the room, locking the door behind her.
Kai POV
I stared at the Garmadons. "What. In. Ninjago. Was. That?!" I asked, frantically. Three shrugged shoulders. I sighed. "Well, whatever it was, I think that's why the Crows kidnapped her in the first place."
I struggled to my feet, using my good arm to steady myself. I then attempted to untie Lloyd's bonds with only one hand, but it wasn't that easy. I finally got it, and he untied his parents. Misako rubbed her wrists. "Okay, we need to get the others. I don't think we have an advantage here."
"We could take em!" Garmadon cheered. But after a glare from Misako, he mumbled, "Or not. But we can't all leave! If any of them come back, it'll be too obvious." Garmadon fixed his eyes on me. Oh no. "Kai, I think you should stay."
I opened my mouth to protest, but Lloyd said, "I'll stay too. You guys go." I gave him a weak smile. At least I wasn't alone. But I was also pretty useless. I glances at my left shoulder and sighed.
Misako and Garmadon pulled open the window. Garmadon hopped out first, then caught Misako when she jumped after him. Lloyd and I watched them dart away, across the desert. I slumped backwards, onto a chair. "So, what'll we tell em when they see your parents gone and you untied?"
Lloyd thought for a moment, then snapped his fingers. "I got it! Okay, tie me back up! We'll say they untied themselves and left without us because you were injured and they didn't want me getting hurt!" I nodded. For a kid in a teen's body, he was pretty smart.
*squeals* I'M GETTING GOOD REVIEWS! *does happy dance*
Also, Moonie and I recently watched the A Very Potter series (Musical, Sequel, and Senior Year) so expect references XD We also watched Holy Musical B man and Twisted, but the Harry Potter ones were our favs.
Ummmm . . . Gracie isn't back yet so her story won't be updated for a while . . . Moon is working like crazy on hers . . . My old story (Spinjitzu and Secrets) is still up for grabs if you want to continue it, but that is just optional, so nobody has to, just if they want to . . .
Andddddddd yeah. Later!
