Okay, so apparently you guys want a second chapter for this. Will do.
I apologize for my absence on FanFic, but long story short life has not left any time for me to be on the computer for longer than five minutes. :(
So, since I'm just doing this right off the bat, I hope this is good and not crappy...guess I'll find out.
I don't own Ninjago (and I guess I should also add that I do not own FMA)
It was the day right after his dream...or more precisely, nightmare. (His childhood fear would never leave him; it would haunt him for the rest of eternity.)
"What was all that screaming about last night?" Nya wondered at breakfast, reaching for the maple syrup to pour over her waffles. Kai felt his face warm as he received pointed stares from Cole, Zane, Jay, and Lloyd. Nya raised an eyebrow and looked at her brother.
"I hate spiders, okay?" he stated in a semi-loud voice. "I had a dream about one and the rest is history."
Nya shrugged her shoulders and returned to her waffles. "Well, at least it's something legit and not weird."
"What do you mean by that?" Kai leaned forward so that his right elbow was on the table with his hand in a loose fist, and his other hand gripped the arm of his chair. Nya shrugged again.
"Well, I know how you get after playing some kind of creep game, and so I assumed that you had seen some kind of shadow that looked like one of those creepy characters from whatever you were playing. Or watching," she added in a knowing voice, turning her head so that if she had been wearing glasses she would have been looking more so over the right lens than the other one. Kai shook his head, sighing.
"Am I that easy to read?" he asked, and Nya responded with a large smile.
"No, it's because I know you just that well," she said before brutally stabbing her fork into a slice of kiwi.
They finished breakfast in silence, which proved to much for Jay, because about a minute after the two siblings quit squabbling, he quickly finished up and headed into the game room.
"Alright, training time!" Cole announced. "It'll do Kai some good to get his mind off of his sneaky spiders"-at this Kai scowled at Cole, who ignored it-"and besides, Lloyd's not flexible enough for my liking." The Earth Ninja dragged the small Green Ninja out of his chair, one hand firm in the back of the collar of Lloyd's green shirt.
"Help me..." Lloyd said, and Kai just stood there thinking, Cole looks like a kidnapper. Kai and Zane exchanged looks and shrugged before following, leaving Nya to clean up the kitchen, dishes, and dining room by herself.
Kai ducked underneath Lloyd's right hook before popping back up and spinning on the ball of his left foot before bringing his right leg out to attempt a kick at Lloyd's temple. As small as he was, Lloyd had a really good leg reach, and his calf collided with Kai's.
"What do you mean 'he's not flexible enough for you,' Cole?" Kai shouted as he jumped backwards to avoid a hard lash to to his stomach. Off to his right he saw Cole shrug. Jay was crouched close to the ground, looking at something of great interest on the wooden paneling of the deck.
"Hey, Kai, I need to show ya something." Jay stood up with his hands folded in the way that kids do whenever they're holding onto a grasshopper and they don't want it to fly away.
"Do I have to see it now, Jay?" Kai went in for his own attack and knocked Lloyd on his back.
"Uh-huh." Kai gritted his teeth.
"Hey, Zane, take over for me!" Kai backflipped backwards while Zane did a handspring forward before engaging Lloyd in another battle. Ninjas just never walked away without doing some kind of backflip or something else.
His shirt was soaked with sweat and sticking to his chest and back, so Kai pulled his shirt off and tossed it to the side. Cole put his hands up, saying, "Whoa, flasher."
"At least I'm not like Major Armstrong," Kai said as he reached for a water bottle. Cole and Jay looked at him odd. Kai swallowed and added, "You know, from FMA? Fullmetal Alchemist?" When he continued to receive blank stares he groaned and face-palmed. "The thing that I'm reading right now."
"Oh, that thing! What about it?" Kai shook his head helplessly at Jay.
"Forget I said anything. Now, what is it that you wanted me to show?"
Jay got a large grin on his face and yelled, "Surprise, Kai!" as he threw his hands towards Kai's face and opening his hands. Something that was the size of a quarter flew towards his face and landed squarely on the tip of his nose.
"Jay! You jerk!" Kai screamed as he flailed backwards while swatting at his face to get the spider off. Jay was doubled over laughing like crazy, and Cole was snorting with laughter.
"Watch out for the spiders, Kai! They'll come after you in the middle of the night and bite you all over the place while injecting their venom that turns their victim's insides to mush and then begin drinking your liquified organs. Now how's that for a Kai Innards smoothie?" Jay was doing what Kai called an "Envy Creepy Grin," and thought, That's it; Jay's demented.
While Kai began the quest to find a broom to kill the spider with, Jay was still laughing hysterically. Five minutes later Kai was chasing Jay around the deck, waving a broom in one hand with a meat cleaver in the other yelling as loud as he could, "Don't make me go all 66 on you, Jay! 'Cuz I will or so help me!"
And all the while Sensei Wu just stood back with his staff in hand and just watched the whole scene with interest.
It sucked, didn't it? I know I didn't really talk about spiders, but I tried, guys!
There's am FMA Envy Motivation that has a picture of him doing this really large smile with the caption saying "Creepy Smiles...Envy is doing it right!" That was my reference for Jay's smile. Trust me, find it and put Jay's face overtop of Envy's and tell me how that looks.
Um...I think that's it. So remember, review below and no flames, and...yeah.
Till next time, this is Gray and I'm signing off. :)
