The First Ones
(future setting)
X- Everyone is in for a surprise when Bunny and Zane have something to confess. -X
Bunny bit her lip as she paced back and forth, her loose blonde-brown hair swishing beside her ears. How long had it been since she had met the man she fell in love with and...Oh now they had something even more than just love. She, much like everyone else, had brown taller by about a foot...Yet she was still underneath everyone (but her sister's) height. She had become more dainty it seemed, to where people would say that she was a frail porcelain doll. Her hair was still in beautiful curls, her eyes were as bright as ever maybe even more!
Footsteps were heard in the hallway, her breath feeling more and more strained. She had invited people...Well they weren't really just people...But still, to her boutique to talk about...Well...Her and Zane's situation.
"Are you ready?" a velvety voice asked from the door frame Bunny turned around and smiled lovingly at her Zane. Oh how she was always happy to say that; her Zane.
Zane had grown a bit more pale yet also seemed to have grown stronger and looked a bit more...Well...Alive. But to her, he was always alive. It was evident in his eyes. He was wearing a snug white yukata as opposed to Bunny's mint green kimono that had cherry blossoms on it. Both were wearing their white gold wedding bands, with Bunny also wearing a thin white gold engagement ring that had a cherry blossom made of star sapphires on it.
"Are you ready?" Zane asked, extending his hand out to his wife, who timidly took it.
"No...But with you by my side, everything is...Easier." Bunny replied with a small smile, before being kissed lovingly by her husband.
"The others are waiting for us." Zane whispered as he gently caressed Bunny's face leaving a trail of goosebumps in their wake, Bunny smiled a bit more.
"Let's not keep them waiting." Bunny responded, before following Zane out of the room.
Mayhemb; Sorry to interuppt, but we have some news to tell ya!
Today is Grace's birthday (Grace; Yaaaaay!) so in honor of this we're going to start back up the short stories...But with a new option! You guys remember/know what songfics are right? Where you use a song to either inspire, take part of, or is being sung for the chapter. Well in honor of Grace's birthday, we're opening up a special songfic section! Stay tuned and request songs, we'll see what we can do! Ciao!
Bunny grinned as she saw all her friends and teachers in the room, squeezing Zane's hand happily.
The first she noticed was Cole, who had grown a bit more tanned and buff over the years it seemed. His clean face that had a scar on his right cheek going down to his chin. He was wearing a black yukata, an arm holding his wife and 1 of Bunny's best friends turned sister-in-law, Grace.
Grace had grown beautifully since when they were first ninjas, her form filling in all the right places while still keeping her bright baby blue irises that held a million stories, slightly pale skin, and dark purple hair. Right now she was wearing a lovely ocean blue dress that Bunny had made her as Grace's wedding gift. Both Cole and Grace were happily sporting golden wedding bands, and Grace had her engagement ring on.
Kai was beside Grace and also had grown up, he too was a bit more tanned and looked only slightly stronger. He was wearing a dark red yukata and a chrome wedding band, his wife Kim-Ly sitting in his lap happily.
Kim-Ly had grown just as much as Grace. Her hair was not as stiff and flowed a bit more, her eyes still those happy golden hazel eyes and bright smile. She was wearing a silver kimono, a chrome wedding band, and her chrome engagement ring that seemed to have a flame or ember on it.
Next was Jay, who kept the same skin tone yet was also buffed up a bit more. He was wearing a better form of his old ninja uniform with a golden ring on his finger, and his hand intertwined with Nya.
Nya had grown up in a similar state to Kim-Ly, but she was still a bit shorter. Nya had grown out her hair, so now it fell down to mid-shoulder length. Her face was still as beautiful as ever, and she was wearing a fire-red t-shirt and black jeans. Also on her hand was the wedding band and a metallic engagement ring that had a dash of bright blue on it.
Leaning against the wall was Bunny's brother-in-law Lloyd, who stood beside his wife (and Bunny's sister) Charlotte.
Lloyd had grown up a lot, keeping his hair and childish face, but the rest of him would have made any grown woman quiver at their knees. Yet he was forever faithful to his Charlotte. Lloyd was wearing a loose dark green yukata and a dusty yellow engagement ring.
Charlotte had grown much like Grace, her figure making even the most strongest men bow to her. Her body was now rippled with curves that made any sane man's eyes look over her...Until they got glared at by Lloyd that is. Charlotte's hair was now in cute ringlets down to her waist and her eyes were as beautiful as ever. She was wearing a crème colored yukata, a dusty yellow wedding ring, and a silver engagement ring that had a green dragon wrapping around it.
Beside Charlotte was Kim-Ly's brother, Kyle. Kyle had grown up in a similar state of Lloyd, but not as much. His hair was now to his ears, his eyes held many stories, and that ever-present grin on his face never faltered. He was wearing a dark purple yukata.
"Thank you all for coming." Bunny told everyone, Grace quickly got up from her seat and gently walked over to her best friend.
"Thank you for inviting us." Grace stated before she hugged Bunny, Grace blinked in surprise when she felt something poke her stomach. Pulling back Grace looked down to see a mound where Bunny's stomach laid, but it was hardly noticeable...Grace looked into Bunny's eyes and smirked, she had figured it out.
"Congratulations." Grace whispered to her sister-in-law, who gave her a happy smile before letting her go. Grace couldn't help but feel a small pang of jealousy, but she was still happy for her sister.
Grace and Cole had been the first to marry. Karishma and Garmadon got remarried. Then Zane and Bunny. Misako and Sensei Wu after them. Afterwards Jay and Nya, then Kai and Kim-Ly. Then just recently was Lloyd and Charlotte.
Grace, nonetheless, ruffled Bunny's hair before hugging her brother-in-law.
"Uh...Explain please..?" Jay asked, his voice ringing out from the silence. 'Why did Grace congratulate Bunny..?' everyone wondered.
Bunny face flushed a bit, her voice caught in her throat. She...She couldn't do this! Maybe if Sensei Wu o-or Mrs. Karishma was here..! But...But they were still traveling with Misako and Garmadon to find more of Sensei Wu's immortality tea (Mayhemb; that's what I think it is! I mean, how old is Sensei Wu anyway..?)
Suddenly Bunny felt gentle arms wrap around her waist, she gently turned her head to see it was Zane. Zane smiled down at the Nature Ninja, who's flustered and confused emotions were evident to him after many years of experiencing them. Zane kissed Bunny's forehead, reassuring her she wasn't alone...No, she never had been.
Taking a deep breath Bunny straightened herself up, her eyes and cheeks still showed bashfulness, but she had to do it..!
"...I...I'm..." Bunny's words were almost choking her now.
"You're..?" everyone but Zane, Bunny, and Grace asked.
"...I'mr pregnant.." Bunny finally said, a small smile on her face along with her heavily flushed cheeks. Silence overwhelming the room as the information sunk in.
...
...
..
"OH MY GOSH!" Charlotte yelled as she ran away from the wall, pushed Zane out of the way, and hugged her sister. Zane fell to the ground with a "omph" before he was dragged back onto his feet and got encased in a bear-hug from the strong Earth Ninja (Cole) who was happily laughing.
"Congrats big guy!" Cole exclaimed as he patted his brother-in-law's back, Zane could feel his back breaking it seemed.
"Frosty! You're gonna be a dad!" Kai exclaimed as he took Zane from Cole, hugging him also.
"OHMYGOSH!WHENDIDYOUFINDOUT? (Oh my gosh! When did you find out?)" Nya asked Bunny, who was brightly smiling as her hand instinctively went to her stomach.
"I'm about 2 months in...We found out in the 2nd week, but we just didn't know...How to tell you all." Bunny explained before she was hugged by Kim-Ly.
"Oh sweetie, we would have noticed when we would see you eating instead of working." Kim-Ly joked, pointing out Bunny's work-a-holic attitude. Bunny gently smiled at her friends.
"I'm actually gonna take it easy, docs orders." Bunny replied, before suddenly 2 arms were strung over her shoulders. She saw it was both Grace and Charlotte holding her.
"And their our orders to!" Charlotte exclaimed, a grin on her face.
"Zane knows who to call if he sees you overworking yourself ya know, so watch it!" Grace jokingly warned before ruffling the blonde's hair.
Bunny and Zane both smiled at each other, the distance of 7 feet meant nothing to them. They were the first ones to know this excitement, the excitement of a new life and so much more...They were the first ones.
