Kai searched around, until he finally found Sensei Wu in one of the buildings where he would be staying with Dr. Julien, Garmadon, and the rest of the guys. The building had three floors, so Sensei Wu, Garmadon, and Dr. Julien took the third floor rooms, Kai and the other ninja took the second, and Terrin took the first floor, since he wasn't much of a sleeper at night. Kai stood in front of Sensei Wu's room, as he knocked the slightly opened door.

"Come in," Sensei Wu's voice was heard on the other side, as Kai entered the room and closed the door.

"Ah Kai, what brings you here?" Sensei Wu asked.

Sensei Wu was in a pretty plain room, with a small table and tea set in the middle, a few pillows on the ground to kneel or sit on, and a window with orange curtains that were pulled to the sides. Kai sat in front of Sensei Wu and said,

"Sensei Wu, I... I really need your wisdom."

Kai looked down, as Sensei Wu asked, "Of course. What is it you need guidance on?"

Kai swallowed a small lump in his throat and said, "It's about... me and Flare."

Sensei Wu was in the middle of drinking his tea, when he choked a bit, but he was able to keep his composure and tea down his throat, as he said,

"Um, eh hem, yes, continue. Did you get into another fight?"

Kai shook his head and said, "No we didn't. I've just been getting these feelings around her lately, and they've grown stronger the longer I've been around her. I can feel it on the inside, like there's a fire inside of me, and it's been growing the longer the time I spend with her. I've never really felt this way for someone before, and I don't know what to do."

Sensei Wu listened intently to Kai, and then he looked up at his brother, who had just entered the room.

"Well, it seems like your heart is telling you something Kai," Garmadon said, as he sat on one of the pillows adjacent to Kai and Sensei Wu.

"Uh, Garmadon," Kai said nervous.

"It's alright Kai. I won't speak a word to anyone else," Garmadon said reassuringly, as Kai nodded.

"Yes, and I believe what my brother says is true. Your element is fire Kai, and if you feel the fire inside your heart growing, then your heart is indeed telling you something," Sensei Wu said.

Kai thought about it, and then he said, "Wait a minute, then that means my heart is telling me... that I have feelings for Flare."

Sensei Wu nodded and said, "If you feel it is, then it is."

Then Kai said, "But I don't understand. Flare and I have been bumping heads since day one, and we still do. Well, way less then before, but still! I don't understand. How can I feel this way for her? It's so strong, it's driving me crazy!"

Then Garmadon said, "Kai, your feelings for Flare is natural. Opposites can attract. Although I do sense a fire within her heart, it isn't like yours. She was destined to have the power over shadows, and I believe that form of dark fire that she has fuels the shadows she possesses."

Sensei Wu pondered this, and then he said, "Fire and Shadows are not so different though. A fire is a source of light, and with that light it creates shadows. Both aren't the same, but they are formed together. A spark starts a fire, and as that fire glows brighter, the shadows grow larger as well."

Sensei Wu took a sip of his tea, as Kai pondered this.

"We're not so different after all, Flare and I," Kai said, and Sensei Wu and Garmadon nodded.

Then Kai thought, 'I'm the fire, she's the shadow. We're not exactly the same, but we're meant to be together... Flare...'

Kai stood up, as Garmadon and Sensei Wu looked up at him, wondering what he was up to. Then Kai looked up at both of them with a smile of relief and a new light in his eyes.

"Flare... we're meant to be. We're really meant to be! I'm the fire and she's the shadows... I have to see her!" Kai said, as he turned and hurried out of the room.

"Kai, what do you plan on telling her?" Sensei Wu asked.

"How I feel!" Kai yelled back.

Sensei Wu and Garmadon turned towards one another, and they smiled.

"Cup of tea?" Wu asked Garmadon.

"If you please," Garmadon said.

Flare was wondering around the City of Ouroborus, just examining and exploring the new place.

'This is where the snakes used to live before... tsk, no wonder the Viporeons left, there's no ACs here,' Flare thought, as she stood in front of an interesting building.

She looked inside, which had no door, and saw that they're was one ceiling four floors up, and that it was like a long spiral staircase that went upward to a ladder that led to the roof. They're was metal scraps, broken machinery, and boxes of metal parts stacks around the first floor, and up the wide staircase.

"What a weird place," Flare said outloud, and then she heard a voice call her name.

"Flare!"

She turned, with an arched eyebrow, and saw Kai entering the building.

"Oh, hey Kai. What's up?" Flare asked, as Kai walked towards her and stood a few feet in front of her.

"Flare, I want to tell you something. Something important," Kai said seriously, and Flare just put her hand on her hip and said,

"Well, go ahead, what is it?"

Kai took a moment to breathe since he was running. Flare just looked at him plainly, until he started walking closer to her.

"Flare, I know we weren't on good terms at first, but the longer time I've spent with you, the more I realized how cool you really are, and well uh..."

Kai was about a foot away from Flare when he stood still and started rubbing the back of his head with one arm, as Flare looks at him questionably.

"The thing is Flare, I think I really, well I know I do, but I think I know that I really, you know. Uh! Why is it so hard to tell you?!" Kai said, flustered and then frustrated, as Flare looked at him with a little annoyance, since she thought he was being rude, and she asked,

"Tell me what Kai?!"

Kai looked away from Flare, and tried to speak, "I just want to tell you, you know-"

"Tell me what?" Flare interrupted.

"Y-You know, I just wanted to tell you-" Kai was interrupted by Flare again who said,

"Well I don't know, and I can't read your mind Kai."

Kai become more frustated, and then he said, "I know that, but it's hard-"

Flare interrupted again with a more annoyed expression, "Can you just tell me straight out."

Kai was more aggravated, but then he immediately went and grabbed Flare by her shoulders and said,

"Flare I like you a lot and it's more than just a friend!"

Flare's expression became full of surprise, with her eyes widened, and her mouth a little opened.

"W-What?" Flare asked, to be sure of what Kai just confessed.

"Flare, during our journey, I've really grow to like you a lot. At first I thought I was kidding myself, but I'm more sure now than I was before. Flare, I lo-"

"No. This can't be," Flare interrupted, as she put her hands on Kai's hands and lifted them off of her shoulders.

"Flare, I really do." Kai said.

"No, this can't be possible. You can't really feel that way for me. Not me. I-I'm not nice like other people are. I'm not-" Flare was interrupted by Kai this time, who said,

"Flare, you don't have to be nice like other people, or anything like someone else. Your you, Flare, all the time, everytime. You taught me that. Your the best you, and I lo-"

Kai was interrupted by Flare, who backed away from him as she said,

"Kai, don't play around with me. Don't lie to me!"

Then Kai said, "I'm not playing around and I'm not lying! I'm telling you the truth, from my heart."

Flare started backing away up the stairs, as Kai followed her.

"Your heart... No. No! You can't really feel that way for me! You can't be serious," Flare said with confusion and avoidance.

"I am serious Flare. I wouldn't be telling you this if I wasn't... Hey! Where are you going?!" Kai called out, as Flare started running up the stairs, and then he ran after her.

"I'm not finished talking to you yet Flare, hold on!" Kai called out.

"How could you feel that way for me?! I was mean to you! I played pranks on you! I indirectly called you a dog! I called you 'fire boy!' What do you see in that?" Flare asked, and transparent liquid began to build up in her eyes, as she continued to run upward.

Then Kai replied, "Flare, I was a vampire jerk at that time, and I wasn't welcoming to you when you first joined us so I understand why you were like that. I wasn't so nice to you either, and I'm sorry about that."

Flare started listening more intently to Kai, as she continued running up the stairs.

Kai continued, "Also, I don't mind if you call me 'fire boy,' although I wouldn't mind being called 'fire man' or 'fire guy.' But most importantly Flare, what I see in you is a special kind of light, and that light can be hostile, or really helpful... and very beautiful. Just like you are."

Flare continued running, but she turned her head towards Kai, as he continued running after her. Then Kai smiled at her and asked,

"Flare, would you give us a chance?"

Flare looked at Kai in surprise, but then she looked forward and saw the ladder that led to the roof and quickly climbed up.

Flare was able to open the hatch easily, and jump up on the roof. She looked around real quickly at her surrounding, and she stopped when she noticed an extra room on the roof that was suppose to be the roof access, but the building was being remodeled from the inside first. Flare walked closer to it, and before she had a chance to flee, she heard feet landing behind her. She spun around and saw that Kai was standing there, with a facial expression that showed determination, passion, and confidence.

"Flare," Kai said, as he walked towards her, and as Flare backed away until her back hit on the wall of the roof access.

She stood with her back pressed against the wall, with nervousness in her eyes. Kai noticed her nervousness, and he remembered a similar situation. After realizing this, Kai smirked as he slowly walked towards Flare and said,

"Funny, huh Flare? We're in the same situation like in Fountain Falls. Remember, when you found out that I liked you and you were flirting with me just to make me uncomfortable. I never thought we would be in that same situation again. Of course..."

Kai stood in front of Flare, as he leaned his hand on the wall next to her, and placed his other hand under her chin to make her look up at him. Then Kai said with a smirk,

"The tables have turned haven't they, my shadow princess."

Flare blushed vivdly, and gritted her teeth nervously, trying to think of how to escape from Kai, but there wasn't a way she could think of.

'Darn,' Flare thought, more angered by how nervous she was around him then her thoughts of escaping.

Kai noticed that Flare was nervous and getting angry, which made him lower his hand from her chin and back up by a few steps, especially since he didn't want her to attack him or something.

Then he said, "Flare, I really do like you a lot. Even if you think it's impossible, nothing is impossible. I should know, I'm a ninja for crying out loud. Who would've thought that I would've become a ninja... Anyway, I want to tell you how I truly feel, even if you reject me. I want to tell you that..."

Flare was less nervous since Kai backed up, and her expression was calm and intrigued by what he was going to say.

"Flare, I love you," Kai said, as Flare gasped with widened eyes.

Kai looked away after a moment, because he wasn't sure if he was ready for rejection, and he knew that Flare might slap him around afterward. Flare was stunned for that moment in time, and she thought,

'He... Kai, you fool. You really love me? Well, I guess we're not so different huh? Because to tell you the truth...'

Flare walked towards Kai, who was still looking away, and she placed her hand on his face to turn him towards her. Kai was surprised by not getting smacked, but he was mesmerized in that moment of looking into Flare's eyes, as she was looking into his. Then Flare smirked and said,

"Kai your a fool, but your not an idiot. Now give me a kiss you stubborn jerk."

"Wha-hmm," was all Kai could say when Flare gave him a quick kiss on the lips.

Kai's face turned bright red like his gi, as Flare smiled at him and said,

"I love you too, Fire guy."

Kai was even more stunned by Flare's confession, but then he signed and smiled.

"Flare," Kai said and added, "Your one in a million."

Flare smirked and said, "Hm, well, your one in a lot."

Kai laughed a little, and then he asked, "Sooo, are we, you know, going out?"

Flare put her hand on her chin to think, and then she replied, "Sure thing Kai, but of course, there's one thing you'll have to do first."

"And what's that?" Kai asked.

"You'll have to talk to my parents of course! I just hope my mother is in a good mood," Flare said playfully, as Kai's face became paled by remembering who Flare's mother was.

'Oh no. I totally forgot about Queen Malentha... Aw man she's going to skin me alive... probably,' Kai thought.

Then Kai shook it off and said, "Well... then... let's just hope that her highness is in a good mood."

Flare was impressed by Kai's bravery, as they gave each other a side hug and moved towards the ladder to exit the roof.

"Why is this building weird?" Kai asked.

"I have no idea," Flare replied.

From above, Lloyd and Raven we're riding the Golden dragon and looking around the city, when they noticed Kai and Flare on the rooftop. When Flare and Kai kissed for that moment, Lloyd and Raven's jaws dropped, and they both stood in more shock when they saw them side hug one another.

"What? What just happened?" Raven asked.

Lloyd shook his head slowly and said, "I really don't know."

Then Raven laughed a bit and said, "And they called us 'love birds' huh?"

Lloyd snapped out of his shock and turned towards Raven. They both started to laugh, and then Lloyd said,

"I know right? They were bothering us about being 'love birds'."

Then Lloyd thought, 'Well, that's one way I could get Kai back for telling Flare about what happened in Fountain Falls.'

Lloyd continued flying around with Raven, as they looked at more sights and saw something not too far from them...

These chapters are going to be a little more calm, but soon that will change...
