A.N.:PEOPLE LIKE THIS! Right as soon as the first person liked this story it made my hole year! Then more people liked it and it made my life! I was about to give up on writing, but since people like this... I'm going to keep on going! I don't own Ninjago. Enjoy chapter 2!

-Normal P.O.V.-

The queen did not look back for fear of going back herself and helping her husband. She ran through the corridors with the five teen fire warriors joining her and surrounding her. "Turn here," The queen said quietly.

They turned and were soon out of the castle and running. "Look out!" Kaito yelled at his mother who moved to the side.

"Hide," The Queen was looking at the fire warriors, "And protect us from the shadows."

As soon as they disappeared a figure came from the sky shooting fire out of their hands trying to hit the Queen and her son as they ran across the bridge. "Marine," The figure now identified as a girl by her voice said, "You can't hide from me," The girl threw a huge fireball in front of Marines path. Luckily for Marine, she was off the bridge by then.

Marine turned around to face her, "Emily, why are you here?"

"I thought it was obvious, now give me the fire heart and I will let you go."

"Never," Marine put Kaito on the ground behind her.

"Always mom and dad's favorite. Now if you give it to me now I will spare both of your sons and raise them as my own."

Marine bent down making it look like she was going to agree but whispered, "Kaito, run. Find Uncle Ray and tell him what has happened, but don't tell him everything."

"What about you?" Kaito asked, "I already lost daddy. I don't want to lose you too."

"I would love for it not to be this way, but it must. Just remember that Mommy and Daddy love you with all their hearts and more."

"I love you too mommy." Then Kaito turned and ran. Not willing to look back until he reached the flame forest.

He heard his aunt shrieking, "YOU FOOL! You should have accepted my offer. Now you will pay," With that said Emily created a fireball twice her size and shot it right at Marina who could do nothing as the fire came closer and finally consumed her.

Kaito cried, now knowing that he was an orphan, and ran into the forest. He faintly heard his aunt order her soldiers to find him, but he didn't care. He didn't know how long he ran for but when he looked around he saw snow covering the ground. 'I must be in the Birchwood forest,' Kaito thought. He started running again when he accidentally ran into a tree branch that was hanging low to the ground. Kaito collapsed on the ground and saw a man with whitening hair before passing out.

-Kai's P.O.V.-

"Is he going to wake up soon?" Jay asked. I heard him, but kept my eyes closed, hoping beyond hope that everything that happened before was a dream.

"I hope he wakes up soon," Cole replied, "He's the only one who knows anything about what is going on."

I debated on whether or not to open my eyes when Zane said, "He is awake, but I'm guessing he has a nasty headache."

I sighed and opened my eyes, "Zane's right. It feel like my head is getting pounded by a hammer."

"Could you tell us what all of this is about?" Lloyd asked.

"Not here, but right now you guys should be concentrating on getting out of here."

"What about you?" Zane asked.

"I will get out when I can," I slowly sat up. I looked around and saw that I was the only one in a separate cage while everyone else was in the same one. There were no guards in the room, "Can we use our elemental powers?"

"We can't really try without hurting someone," Jay answered.

"Ok then," I lit my hand on fire without much difficulty. I touched a bar and it melted. I quickly melted the lock then hurried and did it for the others as well.

"I feel much better now that I'm not stuck in that cage," Jay got out first. Followed by Lloyd, Cole and lastly Zane.

"Do you know where we are Kai?" Cole asked.

I looked around and realized that we were in the dungeon of my old home, "I know exactly where we are," I said sadly, "Follow me," I started walking toward the one wall that didn't have a door.

"Um...Kai," Lloyd said, "There isn't a door over there."

"Yes, there is," I responded, then pushed on a small square with a flame on it. It popped out of the wall. I grabbed it and turned it ninety degrees to the right then pulled. The secret passage opened up, "Hurry. We need to get out of here before they come back."

"How did you know this was here?" Jay asked as he walked through the door followed by Lloyd, Cole and Zane.

"I use to live here," I closed the door behind me and quickly went to the front of our small line to lead the way.

"Really?" Zane asked as he grabbed a torch and held it out to me, "I thought you lived at four weapons your entire life."

I lit the torch on fire, then did the same to another one, "I lived here when I was born all the way to my fifth birthday. Ever since then I have lived at four weapons, until I became a ninja."

"Why didn't you tell us all of this before?" Cole asked.

"I couldn't, I promised my father that I would only tell the ones that would help me. I had to know that none of you would tell anyone else about what I am going to tell you later." I turned left with the others following me.

"So," Lloyd asked with a mischievous look on his face, "How many times did you use these tunnels?"

"Too many times to count," We turned right, "They soon became the only way I got around the castle and my parents learned their way around quickly so they could find me when it was time to eat or something like that." I smiled remembering all the times I used these tunnels.

We stayed silent until we got outside and heard a siren going off along with someone shrieking, then yelling, "GET THEM BEFORE THEY GET TOO FAR AWAY! WE NEED KAI TO TELL US WHERE IT IS!"

"Kai what are they after?!" Cole asked.

"The Fire Heart," I started running, "Come on. We can't let them get it."

The others started running, "Kai the Fire Heart is just a legend, like the Fire Kingdom."

"Both of those are actually real, the castle that we were just in belongs to the rightful heir of the Fire Kingdom."

"Are you saying that you are Prince Kaito from the legend?" Jay asked.

"Yes."

I realized that we were found when we heard, "There they are! Hurry! Do anything you can to get them back here! ESPECIALLY KAI!" Kyle screamed.

"I'm guessing you guys didn't get along," Jay said as we ran.

My terrible luck seemed to not want to give me a break. I was behind everyone, making sure that no arrow was hitting them, when one came and embedded itself in my left lower leg. I cried out as I collapsed on the ground. "Kai!" Cole, Jay, Zane and Lloyd yelled as the looked back.

When they started to turn around I screamed at them, "Go! Just leave me! I can get away later!"

"But-," Lloyd started.

I interrupted, "GO! You have to get away or we're all done for!"

They didn't look happy, but they left knowing that it was for the best.

A.N.:Sorry it's not as long as the last chapter. So I'm giving you a bit of a warning right now... it may be a month before I'm able to upload the next chapter(stupid school), but I'm going to try to do it earlier.
