I'M BACK! and may I add I had a wonderful trip into the US. Yellowstone was cool. Anyways, I have upto chapter 45 of this story and a few chapters of Elementalists Book 2. I will update every half an hour or so.
Kai's P.O.V
After the weirdness of the chipmunks saving us and apparently one talking to Lloyd, we returned home. I sat on the couch with Nya, my little sister as she slept in my arms. The reason she wasn't with Jay is because Jay's gone to Ninjago hospital with Sensei while everyone else was gone.
I brushed the strands of Nya hair back into place as they fell back into her face. I smiled at her.
"Kai," someone whispered to me.
I looked up and saw Lloyd standing in the doorway. He motioned for me to come with him. I nodded and slowly stood up, lying Nya down on the couch. Luckily I didn't wake her in the process.
I snuck over to Lloyd and we began to walk to the training room.
"What's up?" I asked him.
"Ali is wanting to figure some things out and it involves us so," Lloyd gulped as we walked past the training room.
He stopped and pushed me into another room and the door closed behind us. Ali stood at the door as she locked it.
"Ok, Kai," she smiled. It wasn't evil but more mischievous. "Did Lloyd explain anything to you?"
"I didn't want to," Lloyd replied to her.
"Ok then," she sighed. "Kai, with the element in you being fused with your sisters it could create dangerous consequences. I would just like to take it for a few hours to examine it."
"I'm sorry but you do know that your sister almost killed me doing that," I replied, defensively.
"Kai it was the venge stone that nearly killed you," Lloyd said placing a hand on my shoulder. "I'll be watching you while she examines the element. Nothing bad will happen."
Lloyd was on my left and Ali stood to my right. I looked between them and sighed.
"Fine."
Ali smiled at me and motioned to a chair. Just a plain old chair. I sat and Lloyd looked me in the eyes.
"Im here for you," he said. "Ali knows what she's doing. Linda was just messing with things she didn't know about."
I nodded, taking deep breaths in and out. Ali looked at me.
"You ready Kai," Ali said. I nodded nervously. "You'll be fine. If anything starts happening to you, I can simply return the element."
Ali began an pattern with her hands and I watched a red a blue aura flow from me. It didn't hurt like when Linda did it. I did feel tired though. She held the element in the hands and I watched as it swirled it her hands. Lloyd was in awe.
"That's incredible. The two elements are actually fused together."
Ali nodded. "I've seen the elements so many times and never has the been one like this."
She left to examine it as Lloyd helped me up. I wobbled a little bit but Lloyd helped gain my balance. He helped me to the living room where I noticed Nya had gotten up. I wondered where she went to but I pushed the thought aside.
It was close to noon. Jay would be back with Sensei and Misako. Dash, Nicki, Roy, Zack,Tylor and Stan were still out. They aren't going to be back till this evening after dinner. Zane's most likely making lunch and Cole was somewhere. I don't know where he is actually. Lloyd sat beside me and placed an arm around me as I started shivering.
"Ali said you may feel cold," he chuckled.
I smiled at him and moved closer to him, since he was warm. Eventually,I fell asleep with him on the couch.
Nya's P.O.V.
I woke up to Jay standing over me. He smiled and moved a piece of hair from my face. I sat up and he pulled me to my feet.
"Where's Kai?" I asked.
"He went with Lloyd down the hall," Jay replied. "It seemed urgent. What do you want to do?"
I shrugged. I just woke up from a nap and I am still a little woozy.
"Well what time is it?" I asked him.
"11:55," Jay replied.
He lead me out of the living room and towards the backyard. He reached and grabbed my hand as we walked. He lead me towards the pond and then sat on the sandy shore. I chuckled and pulled a wave onto his legs.
"Hey!" he cried with laughter.
He splashed me as I chuckled.
"Do you really want to challenge the master of water to a splash fight?" I asked him.
He then got me in the face, laughing hard afterwards.
"Oh you asked for it," I told him.
I was filled with determination, wearing a large grin on my face. Jay grinned back at me ready for this. I created a large wave behind me. He stumbled backwards in surprise. I released it on him as he screamed in terror. I laughed as the wave disappear revealing a soaked blue ninja. He gave me a look. It was his you want to play that way look.
"If I'm going inside soaked, so are you!" he yelled, tackling me and pulling us both underwater. We came back up and my short black hair hung in my face as we laughed. Jay moved it aside and kissed me.
He backed away and I looked into his blue eyes. I smiled at him and he returned it.
"Shall we go in and dry off before lunch?" he asked.
I gave him a look and nodded, only to slip and pull us both under again. After a few more slips on the wet surface under us we made our way back inside. I then realized all my clothes except for what I'm wearing are in the wash or were on the Bounty. Those would be destroyed.
"Great," I sighed to myself.
Then someone knocked on my door. I answered it to see Jay in a fuzzy sweater and jeans. I smiled back.
"Zane said lunch will be ready in about five minutes," he told me. "Are you dressed?"
"No, not really," I sighed. "I don't have any clean clothes."
"You wanna borrow one of my sweaters?" he asked.
Knowing that even though Jay is the shortest of the boys and that he still had about half a foot on me, I agreed. He disappeared and returned moments later with a blue hoodie. I took it and slid it on over my wet clothes, still taking off my shirt.
"Guys! Lunch is ready!" I heard Zane call as I opened my door up.
Jay's eyes sparkled at the thought of Zane's food. I knew he enjoyed Zanes food. Everyone did. I reached out and took Jay's hand as we walked together. What surprised me is that Lloyd nor my brother were there. Along with Ali. I shrugged it off knowing a lot has happened and they might not be hungry. And with that, we ate.
Lloyd's P.O.V.
I woke up and it was almost two. I didn't even realize I had fallen asleep. I looked to my right and saw Kai snuggled up to me. I remember Ali took his powers so Kai is most likely using me for warmth.
"Lloyd," Kai whispered.
"What's up?" I replied.
He looked up at me, like a little kid at his parents, and smiled. I smiled back at him. He seemed different without his powers. Less tempered.
"When will Ali return my powers?" he asked.
"I don't know," I replied.
I was starting to worry about him. He was pale and cold again. Also very tired from the sound of his voice. He didn't seem like the Kai I knew.
"Alright," Ali said walking into the living room with a ball of red and blue energy floating in her hands. "I'm finished and I can return the elements to Kai."
I stood up and moved beside Ali. She released the energy to Kai and it formed a flame around him. It flickered as Kai smiled. Once the flames died down, Kai's face was regaining its colour. He created fire in his hands and grinned at me. I smiled back.
"Good to see you smiling," Ali told him.
"It feels good to have my powers back," he replied joyfully.
I laughed along with them as Kai walked over to me.
"It's just us here,"Ali informed us. "Everyone left after lunch. What do you wanna do?"
"I don't know," Kai replied.
I was about to suggest swimming when a knock came at the door.
"Who's that?" Ali wondered.
She walked to the door, Kai and I followed her. Ali opened it to reveal a cute, young girl with wavy, blonde hair and a loose flowing, pine green sun dress. She smiled brightly at Ali.
"Is Mr. Wu Garmadon home?" she asked.
"No but he should be back shortly from collecting his tea," Ali answered. "Would you like to come in and wait?"
"That would be delightful," she replied politely.
Ali stepped aside allowing the girl to some in. Kai and I lead her to the living room and she sat on the couch. Something about her seemed familiar. I just couldn't put my finger on it.
"So what's your name?" Kai asked.
"Lillian, but you can call me Lily," she smiled.
I looked at Lily closer, trying to figure out why she felt familiar. Her wavy blonde hair fell loosely down her back with some strands falling over her shoulders. Her pine green dress had long sleeves that hung from her arm with red tassels hanging on the ends. They almost looked like berries. The sleeves had a lighter green vine pattern flowing down them, coming from around her neck in swirls. They dress was tighter around her waist and chest, with acorns and little leaves along the waist. Then it fell loose again as it fell to her knees with more red tassels around the bottom. Her shoes were the same pine green as the dress, flats with pinecone and berries in a bundle on the toes. She had a little satchel attached to her waist, which was a Maroon colour. But her eyes were what caught me off guard. A bright emerald green.
"Lillian," Ali repeated, snapping me from my thoughts. "What's your last name?"
"I don't know actually," Lily sighed.
"Don't know!" I repeated in shock.
"Yeah, Wu was my guardian most of my life," she explained. "I trained with Morro, the master of wind for a few months. Then he left and it was just the two of us. He trained me to control my element for many years. Then said that the rest I must discover myself and set me off on a journey of my own."
I shivered at the mention of Morro. I never wanted to hear him again. Ali and Lily looked at me.
"Bad memories of Morro," Kai told them. "Probably scared Lloyd for life."
"Right," Ali agreed.
"So, you are the ninja, I presume," Lily said.
"Yeah, I'm Kai, the red ninja. That Lloyd the green ninja and Ali the Elemental Princess and the purple Ninja," Kai introduced us.
"It's nice to meet you," Lily smiled.
I smiled and nodded. That's when Kai thought something was up. It's because he said that he and I needed to step out for a minute.
"We'll be right back," he told them
He grabbed my arm and pulled me into the kitchen, which was across the hall.
"Whats up with you Lloyd?" Kai asked me in a serious tone.
"I feel like I know her," I explained. "She seems so familiar to me. I just can't figure out why."
I sighed and placed my hands on the island. I didn't know what was happening to me.
"Maybe Sensei will know when…" Kai started.
"We're back!" Sensei called from the door.
I saw Jay, Nya and Zane walk in carrying groceries in their arms. They placed them on the counter as Sensei started some tea. Cole was still nowhere to be seen though.
"Where's Cole?" I asked.
"Visiting this kid he met," Jay answered. "He said he'll be back before dinner."
Then Ali and Lily walked into the kitchen together. Sensei turned and saw her, smiling.
"Lily, my pupil, it's been awhile since I've seen you," Sensei greeted her.
"Indeed Sensei," Lily replied, giving him a little curtsy.
"Students, this is Lily, the master of nature," Sensei introducer her.
Ali and I made eye contact, shocked. Is there some sort of relationship between us.
"Sensei," Lily added. "I have returned for some help. I seemed to have unlocked a small portion of another element that one of your current ninja use."
"Who and which element?" Sensei questioned.
We stared in awe as she performed the new element. I was the most in shock. It couldn't be. Everyone turned to me and I passed out on the floor.
