Kai
It's only been a couple of days since he's been reunited with his sister.
She was his sister. Not someone else's sister, like he first thought once he realised how his powers worked.
Throw the butter at it.
Kai spun around, wondering what could've prompted Jay sending such a weird message to him, when he found that the guy was still sleeping.
So was Lloyd, who made a throwing gesture before mumbling something about missing it.
GREAT! Now we're dead! We're dead!
Jay started sobbing from under his covers. "We're dead!"
"No we're not!" Lloyd yelled, waking up Cole, who was apparently not dragged into Jay and Lloyd's shared dream. "I still got my blanket!"
Cole went closer to Lloyd in order to investigate, which turned out to be a big mistake, because Lloyd punched him in the face, then threw his blanket at him.
"I killed it! I killed it!"
We're going to live!
"It's time to wake up, little guy," Cole told Lloyd from under the blanket, gently shaking him.
You too, Jay.
Jay gasped softly and fell out of bed, while Lloyd was much more graceful and just apologised to Cole for attacking him, telling him that he had a dream about fighting a giant snake.
"So, who do you think the Green Ninja is?" Skylor asked someone outside their bedroom door.
"You could always ask your teacher," Zane answered, opening the bedroom door and just walking in.
Everybody greeted Zane when he was inside the room.
Skylor looked at where Kai had put his clothes on his bed, next to an unzipped bag. "So you and your sister going home?"
Kai shook his head. "No."
Cole rubbed his jaw. "We talked about it yesterday, when the five of you went out to fight the Serpentine."
"We decided to leave before we overstay our welcome," Zane told the Red Ninja. "Not that we felt unwelcome, but…"
"I know it was you, Kai," Skylor said all of a sudden.
Jay jumped up and grabbed Lloyd by the shoulders before Skylor could say another word. "I have a great idea for what we can do before breakfast," he exclaimed before carrying the boy out as fast as he could.
"What are you talking about?" Kai asked as Zane helped Cole pack.
"In the tomb. Three months ago."
Please don't tell me she's going to bring that up. Please, please, please…
"You were the one who stabbed Ash."
Cole dropped the bag he was holding. "Skylor, you don't know what you're doing," he warned.
"You're messing with things that shouldn't be messed with," Zane added with a low tone of voice, slowly backing away. Cole picked up a nearby candle-holder, just in case it needed to be used as a weapon.
Kai, focus. Your sister is right outside. Lloyd and I are in the kitchen. Where are you?
"The only reason I didn't tell Nya is because she's my friend, and you're her brother." Skylor apparently decided ignore the warnings of the two others in the room. "I guess it's a good thing that Nya didn't end up like…"
"Nyoom!"
Skylor was tackled by a bundle of black and grey before she could finish what she was going to say.
Flames started coming out of her hands as she tried to defend herself from her sudden attacker. "Let go of me!"
Lloyd came running in from the yard to see what the screaming and the cursing was for.
"What's going on here?!" Sensei Wu demanded when he came out of his room because of the racket. He dodged Jay's foot with mere seconds to spare and banged his staff on the floor. "Skylor! Let go of him!"
"He attacked me!" Skylor hissed, pushing down Jay so his face was mushed against the floorboards.
"It does not matter! You are the leader! You must set an example for the others!"
Jay was still kicking to be let go of.
His clothes and hair were singed from the flames and there was the smell of burning flesh in the air once Skylor did let go of him. Which was after Ash and Griffin had to pull her off of him.
Jay immediately started crying.
I wanna go home! I wanna go home to my mom and my dad, and then build things with them and I wish I never got these stupid powers in the first place! It's always so loud!
Cole ran over to try and calm him down, but he got slapped in the face for his efforts.
Then Jay did something that chilled Kai to the bone.
He removed the devices he wore to control his telekinetic powers, while Cole and Zane ran over to try and calm him down even more.
Cole got slapped again. Zane got a kick in the shin.
Things, and people, started getting thrown around as Jay kept crying about how he didn't even want to be there in the first place.
Nails were pulled from the walls.
Planks were ripped apart, splinter by splinter.
The glass windows shattered into millions of dangerously sharp shards.
Cole decided to just grab Lloyd and run.
Skylor was watching the scene in front of her unfold into chaos.
Kai knew that he could stop this.
He didn't know how, seeing as Jay shut down any telepathic link that may still be left between them, but he knew that he could stop it.
The entire building was being destroyed.
The entire mountaintop.
Kai took a deep breath before walking closer and removing one of his gloves once he was close enough.
Jay was surprisingly cold for someone who was just on fire.
Strange memories flowed into his head as he copied Jay's powers into himself within just a few milliseconds of contact.
Jay? It's me.
Jay continued to sob.
I know things get hard. I know your powers aren't easy to work with, but…
I want to go home.
I know, buddy. But is that really a good reason to destroy an entire mountain?
I want to go home.
A nearby portrait of the ninjas was ripped into tiny little pieces of fluff.
How about this: You put your devices back on, and we'll take you to your mom and dad.
You can't do that. You can't do that, they'll get killed!
Things started getting tossed around more while Kai tried using his copied powers from Jay to try and calm things down as much as possible.
You shouldn't have done that.
Before Kai could ask what Jay was talking about, his borrowed powers vanished and so did Jay's memories.
Everything dropped on the ground.
Jay allowed Kai to put the devices he removed back in, but his usually chatty friend stayed quiet, looking out into the sea of splinters and glass in front of him.
Kai couldn't believe that it was all a house just minutes ago.
Good thing Nya was in Ninjago City that day.
"I can't believe I did that," Jay whispered to himself.
Kai picked up his friend, as he couldn't (or wouldn't) move just yet, and walked down the stairs with him flung over his shoulder.
Jay was still breathing heavily.
He wasn't going to say sorry for the events of that morning.
The ninjas had it coming. Attacking his friend for no reason.
The only thing Kai regretted was not getting the chance to say bye to Nya.
Bold & Italics: Kai telepathicly speaking.
Italics: Jay being telepathic
Sir Chairsalot died in this chapter. He will be missed. Also, I think Cole may have kidnapped Lloyd. It doesn't matter. The ninjas aren't getting him after that little stunt Skylor pulled.
Poor Nya. She just got her brother back, and now he's gone again. And she didn't even get to say goodbye. :(
I will explain who's a robot in a future chapter. Thank you for reading and please comment!
