Cole's P.O.V.
I meditated on the edge of the cliffside, the waterfall roaring beside me. I floated in the air, listening to the sounds around me. He voice echoed in my head. Two friends, two lovers, united as one. There shall be nothing that will leave us undone. Tears slipped from my cheeks, remembering her. I knew no one else remembered her, nor ever will.
"Nothing will leave us undone, huh Dash," I whispered to myself. "Nothing except fate."
I sighed and floated to the ground. I stood up and looked at my reflection in the pond. I felt someone with me, but no one was there.
"Cole, look at me," a voice said.
I spun around and Garmadon stood behind me.
"How did you?" I asked, speechless.
"I only came to tell you that Dash is coming back, but not to this world," he told me. "One of my ghosts has been able to use the same spell and somehow saved her, for you. She's trapped forever in the Cursed Realm though. She won't be able to leave and return here."
"Can I see her?' I asked, eagerly.
"Not yet, she's still weak and will need time to fully recover, then I will return for you," he smiled.
He disappeared from our world and I turned back to my reflection.
"What she said was true," I smiled, "nothing will leave us undone."
Lloyd's P.O.V.
I landed at Chen's Noodle House, and Skylor was waiting outside in an burnt orange dress. Kai was drooling over her. I rolled my eyes, nudging him. Skylor climbed on with him and he smirked at me.
"Lloyd," Ali whispered to me, "I hope you understand what this is all about."
I nodded, feeling her head on my shoulder. "It's you parents, I would do the same if I were you."
I gave her kiss on the cheek. She blushed and I turned back to my dragon. I saw her island up ahead. I looked to Kai and he nodded at me. I started to descend to the island, Kai followed. One my feet were on solid ground, Ali looked different. She wasn't serious, nor sad. She seemed more, angry.
"Ali, is something wrong?' I asked.
"Skylor?" Kai questioned.
I looked over and saw Skylor in the same transe.
"Lloyd, what's going on?" Kai asked.
"I honestly don't know," I replied.
Kai looked worried, waving a hand in front of Skylor. She pushed him aside.
"Get behind me," Ali ordered me.
"Ali, what's going on?" I asked.
"Someone else is here," Skylor said. "Someone who isn't suppose to be here."
I looked at Kai, who was worried. He took a fighting stance, ready for whatever came at us. I prepared to fight, but something was telling me not to attack. Or someone.
"Stop, there is no need to attack," a voice cried.
"Whoever is there needs to leave," Ali cried.
I moved out from behind Ali, staring at the door. I saw it, something flying at Ali, and I jumped in front of her. In my right arm, was a sleep dart. Almost as soon as I saw it, my eyes drooped and I collapsed.
"Lloyd!" I heard Ali's cries as I blacked out.
Kai's P.O.V.
Ali kneeled beside Lloyd. I looked up and saw two terrified kids in the doorway, with one of Ali's servants.
"Please your highness, is it you?' he asked.
"Alexander! Why would you even shoot at me!" Ali screamed.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know for certain and you always say take…" he started.
"Extra precautions," Ali sighed. "I know, I know."
"Let's get him inside, we can't wake him until the dart wears off," Skylor said.
I nodded and lifted him up. I followed the two sisters inside, Lloyd sleeping soundly in my arms. Once inside, I took him up to the bedroom he normally used, setting him gently on the bed. He stirred and opened his eyes at me.
"Kai," he moaned.
"Your Ok, Greenbean," I smirked. He really hates it when I call him Greenbean.
"Not funny," he laughed, giving me a small hit. "What happened?"
"Eh, a servant was being overprotective," I shrugged. "Ali and Skylor are downstairs."
"I think I'll wait a couple minutes," he told me. "That is, until I gain feeling i my legs again."
We laughed and I turned for the door.
"Oh, and Lloyd, Ali says thanks for taking the shot," I smiled at him.
He smiled at me as I closed the door and walked downstairs. I got to the main floor and saw William and a little girl play fighting.
"Hold up!" I told them. They turned and looked at me. "William, stagger yourself a little more. Your feet are too close and you'll easily lose your balance. And you, um…"
"My name is Abby," she smiled.
"Abby, Ok, turn yourself more this way, so you're more towards William," I helped her.
"Why are you helping us?' William asked.
"I saw you two doing this and thought that maybe, if you keep this up, you could be future ninja," I smirked.
They smiled at each other and started again as I turned and walked towards the basement. I heard soft crying. I hesitated for a minute, then walked down the stairs. Ali sat in the middle of room, crying into Skylor.
"They're wrong," she shouted. "They lie to me! They're full of lies!"
She threw a box, barely missing my head. I looked up her, tears forming in her eyes with streaks of them on her cheeks.
"Kai, go get Lloyd, now," Skylor ordered.
I nodded and ran for his room. They lie to me! They're full of lies! Ali's words, who was she talking about. Her parents? And what are they lying about? I meet Lloyd at the staircase as he came down.
"Kai, what wrong?' he asked.
"Ali's having a melt down, hurry," I say.
Lloyd's eyes widened. He ran with me as we sprinted back down the stairs. Ali stood on the far side of the room, back to us.
"Ali, please, let's talk about this," Skylor begged.
"There's nothing to talk about," Ali said. "Mother is a lying, no good.."
"Ali! Why are you talking like this!' Lloyd snapped.
Ali spun around to Lloyd and me. Her face was mixed with surprise, concern, anger and sorrow. Lloyd walked over to her, placing a hand on her shoulder. Their eyes locked onto each others.
"What happened?' Lloyd whispered, soothingly.
"My parents," Ali hiccupped. "They...they...they said that….that we weren't to marry. That we weren't to have kids."
She cried into Lloyd's arms. Lloyd looked at me, shocked.
"I won't listen to them, Lloyd," I heard her say. "I will never listen to them. Not now, not ever."
"Ali, it's not up to others to decide your destiny," Lloyd curled her hair behind her ear. "It's up to you. We love each other, and that's all that matters, isn't it."
Ali nodded. Lloyd kissed her on the cheek, causing her to blush.
"Let's give them a moment," Skylor took my hand.
She lead me upstairs and outside. She sat gently on the ground, her hair blowing in the ocean's breeze. I smiled at her and my hand fell to my pocket. It's now or never.
"So, Sky," I said, sitting beside her.
"Kai, I wanted to ask you something," Skylor said.
"What's on your mind?' I asked.
'Well, we've known each other for a while now," she sighed. "Since the tournament, and you've helped me through a lot."
"Yeah, with you're evil father and everything," I smiled, remembering those days. It feels like years ago.
"Anyways, I thought we should take our relationship to the next level," Skylor looked at me, locking our eyes together.
"I was thinking the same thing," I looked down at my pocket.
I got to my knees, pulling the box out. "Will you marry me?"
Her eyes watered, pulling me down for a hug. I toppled on top of her, leaving us in that awkward position. She chuckled as I blushed. I felt her arms wrap around me, pulling me in for a kiss. We made contact and neither of us wanted to stop. When we did, she replied.
"I was going to ask you the same question," she smirked. "Yes, Kai. I'll marry you."
Hoping to have this finished by Chapter 60. My poll is up for the next Alternate ending. I also have a story that will follow my OC Ali after her parents death and what happened leading up to her meeting with Lloyd and Kai. The main points that is. Both stories will happen once this one is done, since they'll be smaller stories. Elementalists Book 2 is creating some issues for me (writer block type of thing) and may take a little longer to update than normal. And school isn't helping with this issue. I try my hardest, but somethings are more important that FanFiction, as you should know. Weekends are the easy update point for me and I hope everyone understands that I'm sorry if I don't update a lot now.
I hope everyone understands.
