Chapter 14
Smoke

This chapter was written with the help of my utterly amazing, wonderful and nice friend Minnie. I was too lazy to write this chapter since I needed to work on the others so I made Minnie do from the bit once they get onto the bounty.

(Jay's POV)

As Blaze turned into his darker self, Cole woke up from his beauty rest.

"Nice to have you back because we need you," I stated as he stood up holding his head.

"What happened to him?" Cole groaned… His head must really hurt.

"Long story but come on bud, we need you," Kai stated as he stood up with Nya in his arms.

"Kai, don't push yourself, just sit down and look after Nya," Zane told the fire Ninja and lightly pushed him down by the shoulders. Kai puffed while I chuckled. As Cole, Kiara, Zane and I stood in a defensive position we watched as Fire Blaze floats in the fire and around him , there was fire creating a sphere over him.

"Zane, create a thick ice force shield over us and kai and Nya," I heard Kiara demanded. We all looked at her. She had a serious facial expression on. "Do it now! If not we'll get burned to death!"

(No POV's)

Her shouts slightly scared Zane and he fumble to hold his shurikens right. Once he did, he created a thick layered ice shield around them. They all watched as the sphere around Blaze grew and the fire became fiercer and looks a bit more lava. Suddenly, the sphere burst making fire or lava fly everywhere hitting trees making them burst on flames. As it hit the icy shield, it turned into steam. Zane tried his best to keep the shield up and repair but the fire was very hot.

Once there was no more fire flying around. Blaze floated down. He looked around admiring the burning trees, bushes but the water underneath his feet. He took in the smell of smoke and grinned.

"I'll see you next time ninja," he smirked and a bright light was left behind as he was gone in a blink of an eye. Kai helped from the inside to melt the ice but only wetting them all in the process. Once they were out of the shield, they had another problem to deal with.

"The forest…" Zane stated as he looked to the forest that went up in flames and the smoke that filled their nose.

"Zane, put it out!" Cole ordered which Zane did but the fire spreading from tree to tree.

"It's going to be hard to put out all of this amount," Zane complained as continued to use his shurikens of ice to put out the fire. Jay reacted quickly and changed his weapon into his jet with Zane in it. As the two flew above the forest, Zane made it snow making the forest return to its icy state.

Hours Later At The Bounty (Minnie's work from here)

Cole was sitting on a fluffy beanbag. He had open a book about dark ninja's, trying to see if he could find anything about Blaze or his weaknesses. Kiara walked in and plopped herself on the beanbag next to him. "So, what are you up to?" she inquired.

"I'm trying to find out anything I can about Blaze, or any of his weaknesses. But so far, nothing… just nothing," he groaned, and buried his head in the book once again.

"Alright then, Mr Sensible, but… you see… Ummm…" she stumbled, her face as red as Kai's ninja suit.

"Yes…" Cole was suddenly quite interested as to what she had to say.

"Well, you see, I… sort of like you. And, it's awkward for me, being around you all the time, with you not having any idea," she sighed, got up, and started to slip out of the door.

"STOP, wait, Kiara, its ok, I like you too,"

"You do?"

"Yes, now, come here!" he ordered. She turned on her heel and made her way towards him. He wrapped his arms around her waist, and pulled her in towards him. Kiara could feel the warmth of his body as she went with the flow. Cole put some music on, and they slowly began to waltz. He was there, with his arms around her waist, and Kiara with hers around his neck, when Lloyd came in.

"Oh, I'm sorry, did I interrupt something here?" Lloyd questioned, with an evil grin on his face. Kiara and Cole were startled by the young boy's sudden arrival.

"Uh, no," Kiara replied, and jumped out of Cole's grip.

"Oh, of course not," Lloyd snickered, and left the room, chuckling to himself, leaving the two older kids with red faces.

(Nya's POV)

I lay on my bed in my room, staring at the ceiling, and wondering what we had done so wrong that Blaze had decided to release his wrath on us. It was just plain unfair. Kiara entered our room in silence, closed the door and started screaming excitedly.

"What, what is it?" I asked, jumping at the fact that she was screaming.

"Oh my God, I just told Cole I like him, and he likes me too!" she squealed, and ran and practically jumped on her bed, sending pillows and feathers flying.

"Oh Kiara, that's fantastic!" I cried.

"Yes, but we were there dancing, and Lloyd came in and busted us, we both went so red..." her sentence was interrupted by the door opening, it was Jay.

"Um, Kiara, can Nya and I please have some privacy?" Jay asked, and motioned towards the door.

"Oh, of course," she smirked and looked at me. I scowled at her, and she just poked her tongue out. She truly is immature sometimes. Just as she was leaving the room, and Jay's back was to her, she made a little heart with her fingers. I grabbed a pillow, and pegged it at her head. She shrieked and slammed the door, running down the hall as fast as she could.

"What is it Jay?" I asked, curious as to what he wanted to ask me.

"Well, I was thinking, you see, I like you a lot, and I was wondering…"

"Yes,"

"Doyouwanttogooutwithme?" he stammered. I could tell he was nervous as it all came out as one word.

"Of course I will Jay!" I exclaimed. He picked me up, and started whirling me around. Oh God, I have been waiting for him to ask me out for ages, and he finally did it. I'm so excited!

(Blaze's POV)

I looked through the crystal ball – it had taken me months to finally acquire it, but let's just say, the sacrifice was worth it... I could see the ninja's on their stupid precious Bounty. They thought that they were so cool, and that they were safe. Like hell they are. I'll soon get them, and their precious little cat girl too. And they'll never know what hit them…

Ok, so this is Minnie. I wrote from once they got onto the bounty for Grace or ZaneLoverFan88, so what do you think. Are Cole and Kiara gonna hook up? And what do you think the sacrifice Blaze made was? Please tell us what you think of this chapter! 3
