A/N: If you used to read Back in my Days… there is going to be an interesting helpful change in Kai starting next chapter. It will be a gradual change, not suddenly there is something different about him. Like last time was… We probably should continue on with this story though.

Chapter Nine: Who needs rescued again?
~Ninjago City~
Police Officer Smith sighed as he waved the van through. He had just checked it for the missing band, and it had came through clear. Glancing over at his partner, who was shaking his head and letting another car pass through. "Dude…it's been over a week. I'm not sure we are ever going to find the missing band. Whoever kidnapped them are clearly long gone by now."
His partner shook his head, before checking the next car. "Come on. We don't get paid here to not check every single car for them. You're clear Ma'am."
Officer Smith shook his head as he checked the trunk of his one hundredth car that morning. This was going to take forever to find the missing teens.
~Jamanakai Village~
Garmadon clenched his fists as he walked away from yet another dead end. No one in any of the villages, or Ninjago City for that matter, have seen his young son at all since the Monastery burned down. Make that, they didn't even see him then. No one even knew the lad was missing until they asked if they've seen them. Shaking his head, he walked over to the candy store that Lloyd frequented a lot. They had to find him…and Spin Harmony so that they can talk to Cole and figure out if Jay is one of them.
~Middle of the Endless Sea, Aboard the Destiny Bounty~
Lloyd yelped in surprise when the large flat screen TV he was using suddenly turned off. Jay, who was sitting next to him on the couch watching him play the new video game, glanced up at it lazily before lifting his hand up. "I've got it." Lightning shot out of his hand and quickly powered up the TV again.
"Thanks Jay…how did you do that!?" Lloyd suddenly registered exactly what he just did.
Jay shrugged nonchalantly. "Not sure. Been doing it for years. Ma and Pa reckoned it probably has something to do with my biological parents, but we're not entirely sure. You should see what the others can do."
Puzzled, Lloyd decided to do exactly that. After he beats Kai's new high score.
~In the Bridge~
Sabrina stared at the navigation computer as if it were speaking a foreign language. Groaning, she turned and walked over to the hot cocoa machine in the middle of the room, quickly filling herself a mug. Walking back to the massive computers in the room, she pushed the button that would allow her to see what her guests were up to at the moment. She rolled her eyes upon realizing that Jay and Lloyd were in the game room playing games, and Zane was in the library reading one of her many scrolls. Nya was in the bathroom fixing a leaky faucet, while Cole and Kai were in the training room, well, training.
Turning around, she noticed a picture of the Overlord in his truest form. A frown slipped in place as she walked over to it. "You are going down Uncle…once they realize that they kinda need to train and learn more about their history and things."
~Back at Borg Industries~
"Thank you for your efforts Officer. I will gladly have Borg Industries looked over. However, I am telling you that I am not holding them prisoner. I consider Spin Harmony some of my closest friends." Mr. Borg, listening to the voice on the other side of his cell. "Of course. I will see you then. Good bye sir." Mr. Borg sighed as he hung up his cell, slipping it back into pocket. "P.I.X.A.L., please call Dareth and tell him to prepare for the police to investigate him. I really don't want them to find his supplies for the Dragons."
"Right away Mr. Borg. I take it there still is no sign of them?" P.I.X.A.L. sounded depressed. She really missed the members of Spin Harmony, especially her boyfriend, Zane.
Mr. Borg forced a tight smile at that question. "I am sorry P.I.X.A.L. The police still don't know where or who has taken them. This is taking far too long in my opinion. I am afraid that the only ones who can find them, are the Dragons. And they are the Dragons. So we can't ask them for help." Mr. Borg placed his chin into his hand, worry and frustration crossing his features.
"We'll find them Mr. Borg. Preferably soon, but if we have to wait for later, then we find them later. Either way they will make it home safely. They always do." P.I.X.A.L. turned and left the office, leaving Mr. Borg to reflect on how they had gone from basically five strangers to a small, tightly knit family unit…one through bond rather blood.
~Back at the Ship~
"Seriously? You want to know if we all have powers or something similar?" Kai looked at Lloyd with disbelief. Of course, it was hard to tell what the disbelief was for, Lloyd wanting to know about his powers, or the fact that the kid had beaten his impossibly high score.
"Yes!" Lloyd bounced on his toes looking Kai right in the eye.
Kai groaned, running his hand over his face. "Fine." Kai lifted his other hand, lighting it on fire.
"Impossible. Ray Smith of the Fire Bloodline was killed before he could have any heirs." Lloyd whispered in a combination of awe and shock.
Kai immediately went from grumbling about Lloyd's request to tense, extremely tense. "How do you know about Dad…or that he was murdered?! Did you recognized his one murderer when we were stuck in that tree!?" Kai was just about hyperventilating, something Nya noticed and groaned at.
Lifting her hand up, Nya quickly sprayed her brother with her water power. Lloyd once again began freaking out. "No. No. No. Maya Wellkeeper of the Water Bloodline was murdered same time that Ray was… and she didn't have any heirs!"
Nya stared at him, wondering if he knew more about their actual families than what they realized. "Lloyd…that's our Mom you're talking about. Only her last name is Smith cause she married Dad. Does the name Chris Julian sound familiar, like not a famous ice skater familiar."
Just then, Zane walked into the room carrying a frozen Jay. "Why are you asking Lloyd if he knows Grandfather? Also, Jay was annoying me and Cole seems to think that Kai needs to defrost him before he catches hypothermia."
Kai eyed the frozen teen, before looking up at Zane, eyebrow shooting upwards. "Do I want to know what he did? Since you typically don't get annoyed with anyone."
"He took Falcon apart." Zane spoke with a serene calmness, though fury flared in his eyes.
Lloyd looked from Jay, who was still frozen, then back at Zane, amazement crossing his face. "Your grandfather was Chris Julian, head of the Ice Bloodline…making you his heir. Wait. That makes all five of the lost Bloodlines are onboard this ship…if Cole can control the earth."
"Oh I can. And looks like we have a new Bloodline expert that ain't the Smith siblings." Cole spoke loudly, drawing everyone's attention to the fact that he was leaning against the doorframe.
Lloyd gulped loudly at that, glancing back at Kai and Nya. Both of them just shrug, signaling that he wasn't joking about that. Kai cracked a smile, a smirk crossing his face. "Hey, who knows maybe the kid knows more about it than us. I mean, we sure didn't realize that you all having powers meant that you were in different Bloodlines."
Lloyd smiled weakly, wondering what all exactly he needed to teach them…and what all did they know.
A/N: Done! Hmm, Jay really shouldn't have touched Falcon. Review!
