Chapter Five: When Your Child Calls For You
Zane, Pixal,and Cole were all sitting by the dimensional mirror contemplating who to talk to next. Zane wanted to talk with his adoptive parents so that's who they decided to speak with. The view on the mirror changed to the inside of the dragon palace.
" Wow Zane that is where you lived for three years?" asked Cole in slight awe of his brother. Zane saw his adoptive parents sleeping with one of the many pictures they had of Zane. Zane felt bad for leaving his parents like he did and he knew they missed him more than the ninja did.
" Mom…. Dad…. I'm here. Can you hear my voice?" said Zane through the mirror. His parents woke up at the sound of the disembodied voice calling to them. Glacia felt a cold wind brush by her scales as if her son was crawling into bed with them after yet another nightmare. Glacia hugged the picture ever closer as tears ran down her face. She missed her son more than anything.
"Wow Zane your parents really miss you" says Cole.
"I know Cole that is why I'm doing this." replied Zane. He commanded the wind to swirl around his parents in a manner that clearly said
" Mom, dad I'm here" Titan felt the comforting breeze and said
" Zane, my boy is that you?"
" Yes dad It is" spoke Zane. He may not be able to be with them in person but he could still speak with them. Glacia was grinning because her child was trying to talk with her.
"Zane how long can you speak with us, are you on some kind of limit or not." asked Titan anxiously
" I can speak with you as long as you would like or until it stops snowing" replied Zane
"Son why did you have to leave us so soon, can't you have waited till you got home or something instead of leaving right then and there" asked Titan
"No dad I couldn't have waited because there would never have been another time when both the ninja and the whole dragon nation was present in the same location and the ninja needed to see that I had no choice but to leave as well as the fact that Wu needed to know just who I became when I defeated the overlord, an all powerful being with a mind and conscious, and huge heart. I am the king up here and I can control both your world and mine, Cole is up here with me because it was not right to leave another immortal trapped in Ninjago with no way of escape" explained Zane.
"Wow son you go from a ninja to a dragon prince to the king of heaven talk about moving up the ranks" said Titan
"Oh yes that reminds me, My creator wishes to thank you for taking such good care of me and treating me just like he used to." said Zane
" Tell your father that it was my pleasure " said Titan
"I love you Papa, and Mama." said Zane
"Love you too son" said Glacia. Zane smiled from behind the mirror and Pixal hugged him. Zane's real father came up from behind them and hugged his son as well. Zane relaxed in the loving embraces of everyone close to him.
