Chapter 5

No one's

After what happened with Kai in front of Zane, they told the others and Kai stayed quiet. Kai was embarrassed and scared. The image he got when he was with Zane was a man with a whisper in his ear.

The man in the image was pale and wore a black shirt that was tore on the ends. The man had a creepy grin burning into Kai's skull. His hair was a dark brown almost black and cut short. He had bushy eyebrows and a goatee. The whisper he heard must have been his name.

Charlie

Two hours after what happened, Kai spent time by himself knowing something would happen soon. Kai sat at the sail and leaned on it. He thoughts jumbled like a bounce house. At times his chest would ache and he would lean forward and hug himself. When the pain was gone he would sit back like nothing happened. That was only the beginning.

"Kai?" A voice called from behind Kai and the sail. Kai recognise the voice as Zane's and relaxed a bit.

"Yeah?" Kai answered not turning to him. Zane walked next to Kai and sat next to him.

"You know I am not mad at you from early." Zane stated and Kai nodded.

"Yes but I still feel bad. Do me a favor. When I ever try to hurt you guys or everything changes don't hesitate to stop me." Kai said and Zane tilted his head.

"When you looked in the mirror, what did you see? It is obviously affecting you." Zane put a hand on Kai's shoulder. Kai did want to answer but didn't want to replay the image in his head. He didn't want to mess the future. If only... "Kai?"

Kai still was silent and pulled his knees to his chest and hugged them. He put his head on his knees. "If only it was that easy Zane... to end it all. But no one will listen. I am suffering, Zane. I want it to stop. The whispers gone and the horrible things out. The terrible screams of... you guys and it is haunting me. I can't sleep with the fear of him coming back. I am losing my self in my mind Zane. I can stop it but I need help. The mirror needs to break. . . I am dying in this torture of my own life."

Zane was taken back at what Kai said and crawlsed to sit in front of his friend. Zane was on his knees in front of Kai and put a hand on his chin. Zane lifted his chin and looked in his eyes. Zane moved his hand on his knee and Kai kept his head up.

"Who is him?" Zane asked and Kai shivered and looked down again.

Kai sighed, "All I can say is his name is Charlie." Kai gasped at the pain in his chest and he hugged his chest.

"Kai!" Zane said in surprise and put his hands on his shoulders.

Kai growled, "No Zane!" Kai jerked his body away from Zane and lied on his side groaning in pain. Zane stood up and didn't know what to do. "Zane... kill me before it is to late!"

"I would never do such a thing Kai!" Zane shouted to him and Kai got off his side. The pain stayed but lessened.

"Then tie me!" Kai shouted back and stood up, crossed his arms over his aching chest and leaned his back against the sail. Zane hesitated. "WHAT DID I TELL YOU ZANE! You can't hesitate!"

Kai moaned after the shout and his head dropped and eyes closed. Kai laughed creepy and Zane walked back away from him. Kai's arms fell to his sides and his head shot up. Red eyes and pale skin took Kai over.

"Kai.." Zane whispered in regret and Kai laughed.

"It is too late for him.." Kai smiled and walked to Zane. Kai's ssmiled faded and eyes closed. He dropped to the ground and groaned. "Zane..tie me before I am gone.."

Zane was mixed with emotions and didn't hesitate this time. Zane ran a grabbed a spare rope at the rail. He ran to Kai who stood up against the sail now. Zane tied Kai to the sail and tied the ends tight.

"Thanks Zane.." Kai said barely above a whisper. Kai dropped his head and moaned. "Get Sensei.."

Zane nodded and ran to Sensei Wu's room. Zane knocked quickly and didn't wait from a answer. He opened the door himself and went up.

"I am sorry Sensei but we have a big problem." Zane bowed slightly and ran out the door. Sensei Wu followed Zane out and Lloyd caught his eye on the two running and followed. Sensei Wu and Lloyd saw Kai tied to the sail.

Lloyd gasped, "Who tied Kai to the pole?!"

"I did what was necessary. Kai?" Zane called and Kai didn't. Kai had his head drooped and eyes closed. "Kai?"

Zane kneeled in front of Kai and looked up at his face. Kai suddenly gasped and his head shot up. He breathing was quick and his eyes darted around. Kai turned his head to Sensei Wu.

"Who is Charlie?!" Kai shouted and Sensei Wu mouth dropped. Then Jay and Cole walked out on deck.

"Looks like someone got tired of Kai's attitude." Jay commented and Cole high fived him. Kai glared at the two and switched his attention back to Sensei Wu.

"Who is Charlie?!" Kai shouted and everyone but Sensei Wu was confused.

"He lost his marble..." Jay whispered to Cole who smirked. Kai's eyes flashed red.

"I swear to god I'll you two first!" Kai gasped when his eyes turned to normal. "Sensei.."

Sensei Wu sighed, "A long time ago back to the time of the First Master of Spinjizu a man named Charlie was friend with the Spinjizu Master. They were rivals at everything as friend are. One day Charlie grew jealous of the power his friend had and tried to take it. Charlie failed and was banished to the underworld. Numerous times he tried to escape the underworld but died trying."

Kai panted and looked in his Sensei's eyes. "He's in my head."

Nya On Bounty

Nya was off in the boys bedroom cleaning up their mess. A mountain of dirty sticky clothes in front of the buck beds. Nya felt she needs a gas mask to just go near it. Nya sucked in a deep breathe and walked near it.

"Nya! Come quick!" Jay's voice stop her just in time and Nya took a big step back. Nya breathed in the cleaner air and walked out of the bedroom. She then felt something off in her heart. The words Jay said repeated in her head.

Nya ran through the hallway and to the deck. Her eyes immediately landed on Kai tied up. She felt her heart drop and all eyes were on her. Kai looked upset and Nya noticed everyone backed up to give the siblings space.

"Kai what-" Nya was cut off.

"Nya, I don't have much time. I need you promise me you will not put yourself into any kind of danger and listen to what Zane says, I don't trust you with Jay or Cole. I-I'm sorry." Kai said quickly and Nya shook her head.

"What the heck is going on?!" Nya shouted and ran to Kai. Zane and Lloyd grabbed Nya's arms and pulled her away from Kai. "No! You can't do this!"

Nya struggled in their grip and Kai dropped his head. Everyone was about three yards away from Kai. It was clear to all eyes that Kai was shaking, Kai closed his eyes. Kai's breathing was scratchy and his body slumped under the ropes.

"What is happening to him . ." Nya whispered and Zane leaned close to Nya as she stopped struggling and they let go of her.

"Kai's mind and body is being taken over by evil." Zane whispered to her and she let out a cold breath. The wind started to pick up and Kai with everyone else's hair blew with.

"Can't we stop it?!" Nya shouted and took a step towards Kai. Zane grabbed her arm.

"I am sorry Nya." Zane said and pulled her back to him. Zane hugged her and shield her head from looking at Kai. Lloyd stood in her view just in case. Cole stepped towards Kai to get an update.

"Kai you there?" Cole said softly and Kai didn't move but Kai opened his mouth.

"I...will kill you all!" Kai's head shot up and exposed his blood red eyes. Cole stepped back quickly. Kai tried to lunged at everyone struggling in the ropes. Nya looked up from Zane's comforting hug but only saw Lloyd's back.

Kai dropped his head again and closed his eyes. He stopped struggling and moaned. He brought his head up slowly and opened his eyes to reveal the still blood red eyes. "Nya.. untie me." Kai's voice was convincing but off.

"Do not do it Nya. It is a trick." Zane whispered in her ear and Nya rested her head on Zane's shoudler again.

She cried, "It sounds so real." Nya whimpered and tears ran down her cheeks onto the Titanium Ninja. Zane hugged her much like Kai would do for the brother sister bond. Zane was not her brother but they were family and he was given the task to protect her.

"It will be alright Nya." Zane rubbed Nya's back and Kai's rolled his eyes.

"If you take me to the mirror I will return your friend." The fake Kai said and Sensei Wu glared at him.

"Who are you?" Sensei Wu ordered and Kai laughed evilly.

"I am Charlie."

I want to start off by saying sorry for the late update. I got sick and I am very busy. I have been typing this right before school and any second I get I type. Friday after school I have a dance so I will not be able to post then. I decided I would post every Monday and see how that goes. I would have the weekends and weekdays then boom every Monday would probably be better for my schedule. That is all for now, thank you for reading.
