Jay's P.O.V.
Nya and I unpacked some of Kyle's boxes in his new apartment. Neuro had joined us, since he was a few doors down. We put things away in the kitchen, as Kyle and Neuro worked in the bedroom. Tylor and Stan did work moving larger bits of furniture into the living room.
"So Nya," I say. "When are we going to have our wedding?"
"Whenever you want," Nya replied, joyfully.
"Ok, How about next month," I suggested. "October 15th."
"Why that day?" Nya asked.
"It's next month, the same date you proposed to me. Only it's three months later," I replied.
"That'll work, unless a villain decides against that," Nya laughed.
Yeah, gotta keep that in mind. I think to myself. A ninjas work is never done.
"Hey love birds!" Tylor called. "Make room!"
I looked at the door and saw Tylor and Stan helping the movers bring in some of the appliances. I moved to the side as they put the oven in place.
"That's the last of it," Stan sighed in relief. "Everything is out of the moving van."
"Ok, everything is set up here," I smiled.
"No Neuro not there!" Kyle cried out in worry.
It was followed by a loud bang and a moan. We ran to the bedroom and saw Neuro on the floor, under a pile of boxes.
"Neuro, what happened?" Nya asked as I helped him out.
"My bad, I tried to move a box and I knocked these ones," Neuro laughed nervously.
We smiles, Kyle laughing. Neuro nudged his brother.
"So, is everything done?" Kyle asked.
"Yup," Tylor said.
"Great, Nya and Jay, you can get going," Kyle said. "I was hoping Tylor and Stan could help me a little more."
"Sure," Tylor replied.
"See you later," Nya hugged him.
With that we walked outside and I saw Two dragons flying overhead.
"Looks like Kai and Lloyd are heading home," I said.
"Its almost five, you know," Nya told me.
I was shocked at first. Time flies while you're having fun.
"Come on, Ali's suppose to make dinner and she's going to make mac'n cheese," Nya grabbed my hand as we ran the streets of Ninjago.
It was later that night, after dinner. We all sat outside on the sand by the pond. Kai, Nya, Ali and Skylor practised using the water element. I chatted with Zane and Lloyd. Nicki, Roy, Tylo, Stan and Zack played tag. Cole sat on the cliffside by himself, meditating.
"You worried about him too," Zane said.
"Yeah, he's grown quite distant from us," I sighed. "I tried to talk to him about coming to help Kyle, but he literally closed the door in face."
Lloyd shook his head. "I'll go see if I can talk some sense into him."
Lloyd got to his feet. I watched him walk off, approaching Cole. He sat, but Cole never moved. Then I became soaked.
"Come on, Jay," Kai called. "Have some fun."
I glared at him, then allowed myself to smiled as I pulled my shirt off and ran into the moonlit water. Zane followed me in. We splashed around, laughing and having fun. Nya tackled me, taking us both under. It was unfortunate that I fell into a deeper part and couldn't find the bottom. Nya got to the top, but something was pulling me down. I looked and saw a bunch of plants wrapped around my leg. I saw trapped.
Cole's P.O.V.
I heard everyone laughing and splashing around, and I knew Lloyd was beside me.
I sighed. "What is it?"
"I know it's hard for you to move on with Dash, but everyone is worried it's something else," Lloyd whispered.
"Does it look like I care," I nearly shouted. "She's gone and no one remembers her."
I know she's not completely gone, but it feels like it. Lloyd looked at me. He was silent for a couple minutes. When he opened his mouth to speak, someone screamed.
"Where is he!"
It was Nya.
"Where's Jay!? He should have surfaced by now!" Nya cried in fear.
Ali and Kai brought her to the shore and I ran to the water. Skylor dove under, but came back up without any luck. I stood on the cliff, looking for the blue ninja in the calm water. Then I spotted his red hair. No hesitation, I dove of the ledge of the cliff, swimming deep for him. His eyes were closed, slowly sinking deeper in the water. I freed his leg, placing my arm around him. Then, with all my power, I swam to the surface with him.
Reaching the surface, I gasped for air and dragged Jay to the shore. Nya cried in Kai's arms while Ali, helped me bring him onto land. Jay started coughing like nuts, water and spit flying everywhere. His eyes opened and looked around, lost and confused.
"Jay, don't scare me like that ever again," Nya cried.
She hugged him tightly, causing him to smile. Then he frowned.
"You took me under," he said. "It's you're fault."
"Jay, I'm sorry, I really am," Nya sobbed.
Jay hugged her, wiping away her tears. I smiled. They were cute together. Lloyd and Ali started hugging. Kai and Skylor too. All around, everyone was hugging someone they loved, even if it were brotherly love like Tylor and Stan. Zack was in a group hug with Nicki and Roy, but I just wished I could hug Dash again.
"Hey guys," Lloyd said. "Dog pile on Cole!"
"Wait, what!" I cried as everyone piled onto me.
We were in a tangled mess of arms and legs, laughter erupted everywhere. Even I was laughing. And you know what, this is a moment I will always remember. Me and my family, laughing and having fun, outdoors in the moonlight.
Only a couple more chapters, to end it on a sweet note. More weddings coming up. Who's excited? Review!
