A.N: Surprise! HAPPY HALLOWEEN! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Whether you went out trick-or-treating or just passed out candy while wearing a costume (I spent the entire night dressed as a greek goddess and passed out candy :3 Anyway, Here's your treat, hehe :) So yeah, this chapter is unfortunately not a Halloween one...bummer :I also it took over a MONTH to post. I am SO sorry...school...blech! This chapter is actually just a Kailor chapter that includes an event that was never brought up much and the ending of this does kind of come out of nowhere but it was something that was requested and I had an idea for it and I think I can put it in now and I've had this idea over for a while...another fair warning, the writing isn't the best but PLEASE! Please please please please please PLEASE! Don't hate me by the end of the chapter! Okay, let's get started...
"Skylor...Wake up Skylor..." A soft voice said, Skylor mumbled in her sleep as her eyelids tightened and immediately shot open. There she saw Eve standing right in front of her.
"Yeah?" Skylor said drowsily, "Come on, today's the big day. You don't wanna sleep through it, do 'ya?" Eve giggled.
It was a big day today. Today was Kai and Skylor's wedding day. The subject wasn't really talked about due to the planning of Jay and Nya's wedding which was also why they decided to keep it small. They were in Eve's room because Eve let Skylor stay the night due to the whole "bad luck for the groom to see the bride before the ceremony" superstition. Skylor took Eve's bed while Eve took the couch. Eve, Eliza, and P.I.X.A.L, were all proud to be the bridesmaids while Nya was the maid of honor since Skylor didn't have any sisters.
"The girls should be here any minute." Eve said, "I'd better go wake Dylan up." Eve then left the room. Skylor groaned and sat up in Eve's bed and looked down at the red ruby ring on her finger. She remembered the time when she and Kai first met. It was a moment she'd never forget in her whole life. Now she was going to marry him, that same guy who she met over almost two years ago. Now she has had a baby with him and now marriage. This was a huge moment in Skylor's whole life. She wasn't going to let anything screw it up.
A few minutes later the others arrived and helped Skylor with her makeup and hair. While each of them took turns helping Skylor get ready, the others would take the time to slip into their bridesmaid dresses. They were bright red tops that had orange and yellow sequins sewed into them and small sparkles on the deep red knee length skirts. Their hair had to be in a loose braid and their bangs had to be pulled back by a clip that had a fabric flame on it. Skylor's dress was a strapless one that had silver sequins on the top part of it and a small train at the back. Her scarlet red hair was styled up into a fancy bun with a bang left hanging out on the right side of her face which was covered in light powder, blush, and lipstick. She looked at herself in the mirror with an odd face. She wasn't the type of person who wore makeup much so she thought she looked odd, but the girls didn't seem to think so.
"You look so beautiful!" Eliza awed, "You look great!" Eve smiled, "I don't know, girls. Does the makeup really suit me?" Skylor asked, still looking at herself unsure.
"Are you kidding?! You look amazing!" Eliza said, Skylor forced a smile.
Nya put a hand on Skylor's shoulder. "Hey, you take good care of my brother you hear?" She asked, Skylor beamed back, this time for real. "Okay Nya, but I can't promise that he won't get into danger with the guys." She joked. Eve looked at her smartphone to check the time they should leave. The white letters on the phone read 6:30 a.m, the ceremony wasn't supposed to start until 10:30 but they wanted to get there early to make sure everything was in order. "We'd better get going." She said, "I'll go get Dylan and Brody, you girls head out to the car." The three girls left the room and went to the living room to take some pictures. Eve walked down the hall and entered Dylan's room where she saw him and Brody wearing tuxes and playing a video game on Dylan's XBrick.
"Come on! Come on! Kill that zombie!" Dylan said, rapidly pressing buttons on his controller. "I am, I am." Brody replied doing the same.
"Boys, come on we gotta get to the monastery by 9:30 and it's a three hour drive." Eve said, leaning against the doorway.
Dylan pressed the pause button on his controller and selected the "save and quit" option and turned off his console.
"Oh mom. We were just about to defeat the boss zombie!" Dylan whined, the two boys stood up and they walked past Eve out of the room. "Yeah, we've been trying to get to that level for months." Brody continued.
Eve giggled, "Well, you two can finish it later. We gotta go to the wedding now." She followed the boys down the hall and out of the apartment. They took the elevator to the lobby and went out to Eliza's car.
"Alright, we got everything we need?" Eliza asked, "Yeah, we're good." Nya replied, "Okay, so where is the monastery?" Eliza asked again. Eve pinched her temple. "Eliza, I gave you the directions to the monastery last week. They're on your phone." She explained. "Oh yeah, right." Eliza nodded, she reached forward and turned on her phone's GPS. "I'm sorry, usually I'm not so incompetent, it's just work and Brody and-"
"It's okay, it's been a rough week for all of us." Nya assured her. Eliza then smiled and turned the ignition on and they were off.
Meanwhile:
"Hey you!" Jay yelled, the man whom he was yelling at turned and his face immediately displayed a scared look.
"Yeah you! The theme is 'Burning Love' not 'Burning World'! It's a wedding and you're making it sound morbid!" The man shrieked and ran away scared.
"Geeze Jay, you didn't have to snap at that guy." Cole said, surprised by his friend's behavior. "Maybe making you the wedding planner wasn't the best idea."
"Hey! It's our friend's wedding. It has to be perfect. We're losing our brother today and we should make this wedding a good send off." Jay explained,
"Yeah I guess you gotta point." Cole said, with a shrug. "We want this day to be memorable. We probably won't see Kai and Skylor much anymore when they move out so we should make this something we'll remember them by along with our other memories."
Just then Garmadon along with Sensei and Zane walked into the room.
"How's Kai doing?" Jay asked shrugging, "Not well I'm afraid." Sensei said, "It appears that Kai has the term, 'Cold Feet'." Zane explained, "I don't blame him. I was terrified the day I married my Misako." Garmadon said.
Jay sighed. "Let's go check on him." He said,
Kai was in the dressing room looking at himself in the mirror with Lloyd at his side for Lloyd was the best man. They saw the guys enter the room in the mirror's reflection.
Lloyd turned to face them. "Hey, what are you guys doing in here?" He asked, "We heard Kai was not himself, we think he has cold feet." Jay explained, "Must be, he's been quiet all morning." Lloyd responded. "It's not cold feet." Kai spoke up, "It's just...this is gonna be one of the greatest days of my life...What if something goes wrong?"
"Kai relax." Jay said, with a wave of his hand. "All of our worst enemies are either dead or gone, what could possibly go wrong?"
Meanwhile:
Luke, Star, and Clouse approached a rather volcano-like hill. Star and Clouse stared up at it seriously while Luke stared up at it with slight fear.
"Star? What is that thing?" Luke asked frightened, "It's our only way back to Ninjago…" Star replied, "Come on, there's no time to lose!" She began to walk up the mountain with her father following. Luke just stood there stunned.
"Are you crazy?!" Luke yelled, "I am NOT going near that thing!" He folded his arms and looked away angrily.
"Look, do you want revenge or not?!" Star scolded, "Man up!" Luke looked back at her, she did not look like she was in the mood for his attitude at the moment.
"Okay, let's go through." Luke said then giving in,
"Okay then..." Star said seriously. They walked further up the mountain keeping a sharp eye out for anything that could stop them. Suddenly out of nowhere mud monsters began popping up all around them.
"Whoa!" Star yelled, Luke ran up to one of them and kicked it's mud head clean off.
"Star! Keep close my child!" Clouse ordered, dark magic began to form in his hands. "Dad, I'm not a little girl anymore!" Star yelled, she whipped out her golden gun. "I can take care of myself!" Star began shooting the mud monsters with her gun while Clouse used his dark magic and Luke used his strength.
"How are we supposed to beat them all?!" Luke asked, "Just keep fighting!" Star yelled,
Eliza's car pulled up to the rather large monastery. All of the girls stared at the old mighty building with pride and respect while Dylan and Brody just stared up at it amazed.
"Why are you having the wedding here again?" Eliza asked, "Shouldn't you have the wedding somewhere more...traditional?"
"This is traditional." Skylor explained, "Our parents got married in monasteries, so we're doing that too."
"Oh, okay." Eliza nodded, she turned off the ignition and the seven of them scrambled out of the car and headed into the monastery. When they entered the deserted dojo and were surprised to find that some of the guests had already arrived. All of the elemental descendants were there as well as the serpentine. They managed to catch Darreth in the crowd along with the boarding school kids.
"Come on, the wedding starts in an hour." Eve said, they sneaked behind the crowd so they couldn't see Skylor in her dress. They slipped down the corridor and into the dressing room reserved for her.
"I'm gonna miss you guys." Kai said to his brothers, Cole, Lloyd, and Zane were all somber while Jay looked like he was on the verge of tears.
Jay sniffed, "We'll miss you too." Lloyd put a hand on Kai's shoulder. "Go...be happy." He told Kai, at that moment, Kai let a smile crack on his face. Just then, Sensei and Garmadon walked into the room.
"We are ready to begin...Kai? Are you ready?" Sensei asked,
"Yes Sensei." Kai said, bowing for his Sensei. The seven of them left the room and went out into the center of the monastery where everyone was now sitting and waiting for the ceremony to begin.
After a few minutes the music began to play and everyone turned and stood up to witness Skylor's big entrance. Skylor came out holding a bouquet of red and orange flowers and everyone gasped at how beautifully different she looked. Kai smiled when he saw her and she smiled back, tears pooling in her eyes. She slowly began to walk down the aisle. She beamed at all of the faces smiling back at her. She continued down the aisle and past some of Nya's friends and Misako who was cradling Serafina. She finally reached the altar and handed the bouquet of flowers to Eliza.
"You look beautiful." Kai said, "You do too-I mean! Handsome!" Skylor said blushing, Kai took both of Skylor's hands in his and they both they all waited for Borg to begin.
Star, Luke, and Clouse were all still fighting the mud monsters with everything they had. The monsters were really putting up a fight and they were running out of strength and ammo.
Star shot one of the mud monsters down and saw the way to get to the vortex was now free of obstacles.
"Come on, while the monsters are down!" Star yelled, Luke and Chen ran further up the hill with her and they all quickly reached the top. The mud monsters saw that they were about to escape and clamored up towards them.
"We have to get through now!" Star yelled, she shot three more bullets out of her gun and jumped through the vortex with Luke and her father following.
"Dearly beloved, we have gathered here today in the eyes of the first Spinjitzu master to join the master of fire and the master of amber in holy matrimony..." Borg said happily, he looked over to Kai. "Kai you may begin your vows."
"Skylor, when I first laid my eyes on you, I thought you were a vision and that you were way out of my league." The crowd laughed. "I didn't want to see you as a rival and I didn't want to give up on you...and I never will...I vow to protect you forever and not just be your husband, but also your friend."
Borg looked at Skylor. "Skylor?" Skylor took a deep breath. "Kai, from the moment we first met, I knew you were a kind, loving person. There's not a day that goes by where I regret the fact that I once played you for a fool, at the time, I thought you were a narcissistic and self-absorbed...but...after I got to know you I realized that I was actually in love and I didn't want to hurt you. And now...what we have are real feelings. . My feelings for you are real I love you more than you love me...I vow to always stick by you through thick and thin and to everyday feel honored honored that I will now have the privilege of being your wife..."
"Kai, do you take Skylor to be your lawfully wedded wife? To love and to cherish her in sickness and in health, for richer to poorer until death do you part?" Borg asked,
"...I do." Kai responded, Borg then turned to Skylor. "And Skylor...do you take Kai to be your husband? To love and to cherish him in sickness and in health, for richer to poorer until death do you part?"
Skylor hesitated. Was this really happening? Was she really about to do this? Was she really about to become Kai's wife? Skylor remained silent and looked down towards the floor. Everyone was now on the edge of their seats waiting for a response. Kai's face got worried.
"Skylor?" Borg said, Skylor looked back up. Suddenly her blank look turned into a smile.
"I do." She said beaming, Kai's face showed relief and she could hear everyone in the audience heaving sighs of relief as well.
"And it is now my duty to ask if anyone in this monastery has any cause for objection to this union, may they speak now or forever hold their peace." Borg said, everyone remained silent.
"Then by the power vested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may now kiss the bride." Kai put his right hand on Skylor's cheek and leaned in and kissed her. Everyone in the audience stood up and clapped loudly for the young newly weds. Then everyone knew it was time for the party.
A large vortex opened up in the sky and Star, Luke, and Clouse came falling out. They looked around. They were in Kai and Nya's old village.
"Where are we?" Star asked, "The Hell should I know?!" Luke snapped, that's when they saw some villagers looking at them shaking in fear.
"Y-You'd better get lost! Our neighbor is the master of fire!" One of the male farmers warned them.
"Great." Star said, rolling her eyes. We're in Kai and Nya's old village…" "Well where are we supposed to go?" Luke asked shrugging,
Star grinned devilishly, "I think I know the way…" she said.
Everyone was now in downtown Ninjago City for the wedding reception. Everyone was just drinking alcohol and laughing while the kids all danced on the dance floor.
"Hey Junior, you're showing some pretty sick moves." Scalene joked, the young Hypnobrai was getting loose on the dance floor literally break dancing beyond anything the other kids had ever seen.
"Whoa Dylan, look at you you're bustin' moves!" Brody joked as well.
"Thanks." Dylan beamed, he then took Scalene's hand and gave her a twirl. Scalene just laughed as he did so and then the two looked at each other in silence for a split second before Brody performed a hilarious dance move gaining their attention again.
"Mom, dad I'm so glad you guys could make it." Eve smiled, she was talking to her parents with Lloyd at her side.
"We're glad to see you too, princess." Eve's father smiled, he looked at Lloyd. "Lloyd, good to see you too, son." He patted Lloyd's shoulder.
"You too sir." Lloyd beamed, "Please, just William's fine." "And you can just call me Christie." Eve's mother said smiling generously, "So how's your relationship going?" she asked, "Pretty good." Lloyd answered, "Everything's really working out for all of us right now."
"Well that's good." Eve's mother nodded, "I'm gonna go get a refill." Eve said, dingling her empty glass. She walked away leaving the other three alone.
"She really loves you, you know." Christie said, "Yeah, and I feel the same." Lloyd nodded,
Eve was at the refreshment table refilling her alcohol glass when she suddenly heard a female scream. She recognized the scream as her mother's scream. She immediately ran back to Lloyd and her parents worried they were hurt.
"Mom! Are you okay?!" Eve yelled, "Yes I'm fine Evie." Her mother said breathing heavily in and out. "I just thought I saw a spider on the wall." She explained, "Oh...okay…" Eve said shrugging. Suddenly they heard a clanking noise. Everyone in the room turned to find Kai standing up on one of the tables holding up a glass full of champagne.
"We would like to say something…" Kai said, he held his hand out to Skylor and she smiled and took it and he hoisted her up onto the table as well.
"We would like to thank you all for coming to our wedding and our reception...It means so much to us that we have so many people who care about us and how we feel for one another. We thank you all for all your love and support and I'm blessed that we finally got our happy ending...We hope that you all will get your happy endings as well…"
"Hey Kai…" Lloyd waved, walking up to the table. "Mind if I say something?" He asked, "Sure thing." Kai nodded, Lloyd heaved himself up onto the table and Kai handed him the mic.
"I have something to say too…" Lloyd said, everyone was confused as to where he was getting at.
"What we witnessed today was one of life's true miracles. I didn't just see a wedding, I saw two people who are crazy about each other promise to stay by each other's side until they die. Two people who promise to have a life together, to possibly have more kids together." Kai was holding Skylor close to him and the two looked at each other and then back at Lloyd.
"I want that...I want to always have someone to lean on me, someone who I can wake up next to in the morning, I want the light of my life by my side forever…The one I love..." He looked at Eve who had her mouth slightly agape and wide-eyed. He handed Kai the mic and swung down from the table. He walked over to Eve and took both of her hands in his.
"Eve...will you marry me?" Lloyd asked with a shy smile, everyone gasped around them, some of the females awed at the event. Eve was absolutely stunned. Lloyd, the most powerful ninja in the entire realm was asking her to marry him? Eve looked around. Everyone was waiting for her response. Her mother was smiling and wiping a tear away from her eye while her father just smiled and had his hand on her mother's shoulder. Eve then looked at Dylan and his friends who were waiting excitedly for a response too. Dylan's eyes were wide and his smile was HUGE! Eve looked down at the floor and back up at her boyfriend who was smiling hopefully waiting for her answer.
"I...I can't…" Eve said sadly shaking her head, everyone at the party gasped at her response. Lloyd's face immediately showed surprise and depression.
"Lloyd, I love you too. More than you could ever possibly know but…...I can't marry you…" She let go of his hands and turned and ran out of the building crying.
"Eve wait!" Lloyd yelled, he ran after her out of the building where the party was being held. He looked around the empty street, the shops across the street from the building still had their lights on and people were coming in and out of them every ten seconds but Lloyd just kept his focus on Eve. He looked around again calling her name.
"Eve! Eve! Eve...come back…" He sulked,
Meanwhile back inside the building everyone decided to just shake off that little "awkward moment" and enjoy the rest of the party. The only people who were still in shock were Eve's parents, Eliza, the kids, and the ninja. They weren't expecting Lloyd to just flat out propose to Eve here in front of everyone. Sure it was a sweet thing, they figured. But maybe Eve said no because it was overwhelming for her, to be asked in front of all these people.
The wedding reception was just about to end and Skylor and Kai were standing on the table again. Skylor turned her back to everyone and tossed the bouquet of red and orange flowers behind her back and everyone began to jump and grab as the bouquet flew through the air.
"I got it! I got it!" Scalene yelled jumping up and down struggling to catch the bouquet, the bunch of flowers sailed over her head just a tad out of her reach and they were caught by someone not far behind her.
"Aww man." She sulked, that's when she felt a tap on her shoulder and she turned to see Dylan smiling and holding the bouquet of flowers.
"I caught them, I caught the flowers." He said happily, he then held them out to her generously. "Here, you can have them." Scalene looked down at the beautiful bouquet in Dylan's hands and then she looked up at the Master of Storms smiling at her sincerely. She reached out a hand and shakingly took the bouquet out of Dylan's hands and into her own. She looked down at them again and then back up at Dylan.
"...Thank you." She said in her high-pitched voice, "You're welcome." Dylan told her, then he turned and left to go find Brody so Eliza could take him home. At that moment, Scale's ife Selma walked up to Scalene and took her hand.
"Come on Scalene, let's-s-s-s-s go." She said,
Kai and Skylor ran out of the building and climbed into the limo they rented and everyone threw rice at them as they were leaving for their honeymoon.
"We'll be back in a week. Take good care of her." Skylor said, through the window of the limo to Misako who was still holding Serafina.
"Hey...don't have too much fun." Nya smirked, "No promises." Skylor laughed while Kai just blushed, just then they saw Lloyd walking up to say his goodbyes still looking rather depressed.
"You two have a good time." He said, forcing a smile. "Hey, we hope you make things better with Eve." Skylor said, holding the Golden Ninja's hand. Lloyd gave her and Kai a weak smile and the limo began to drive off. The couple waved goodbye once more to their friends and they all waved goodbye back to them and stood outside in front of the building until they saw the limo round a corner and out of sight.
Somewhere on a nearby hill three shadowy figures hiked to the top exhausted and beaten up. They looked ahead of them and saw Ninjago City glowing brightly in the distance.
"There it is fellas…" One of the figures said with their female voice, "The city that will be ours yet again."
"But what if the ninja try to stop us?" Another figure asked, "I feel a slight disturbance in the balance." The third figure said, he held out his hands and made a purple smoke ball that produced a projection that showed Eve entering her apartment slamming the door behind her and sliding down against it.
"It appears that the 'Master of Voids' has caused a little...commotion..." They then switched the projection over to an image of Lloyd in the ninja's room sadly sitting on his bed and suddenly covers his face with his hands and falls back on the bed. Then the figure stopped generating the ball of purple smoke and the projection disappeared.
"The Golden Ninja is weak...that means that our time has finally come!" The feminine voice yelled, posing triumphantly. She turned back to the other two figures.
"Come on! We got a city to conquer…"
Oh my god! First of all, Kai and Skylor got married! *fangirl scream* and then Lloyd proposed to Eve! *fangirl scream* But then Eve rejected him. *no fangirl scream :(* and now Star, Luke, and Clouse are back and they want to take over Ninjago. *no fangirl scream* So what will happen in the next chapter?
