Chapter 2: A Day At The Bounty

NOBODY'S POV

It has been 4 years since the ninja have destroyed the Overlord & thanks to Borg he was able to rebuild Zane after sacrificing him self for his friends they wanted to return the favor ( except for the dying part ), so it was a usual day in Ninjago, but it was also quite different, there were no bad guys, no snakes, no evil period so things were at peace, for now. Sensei Wu was meditating in his room on the Bounty like most days, (they managed to get it repaired and back in the air ), but for now they landed in the middle of the ocean so that ment Zane was under water meditating Kai & Cole were timing him on the upper deck, Nya was in her room tinkering with her Samurai X suit, and Lloyd, Garmadon, and Misacko got a house in Ninjago City so they were nowere near the Bounty.( Now i bet your wondering [were in the world is Jay?) well since Cole is the team leader, everyone knows that there has to be a co-team leaded just in case Cole gets hurt and can't go on missions and the co-team leader ended up being Jay. It couldnt be Kai because is anger will cloud is perception, and Zane couldn't because even though he could run a long distance with out stopping he was not that fast or strong and plus he was actually the Wu sent Jay off on the Dark is land for special training and now that the Overlord is not there it became a part of Ninjago so people built a small village there, but Nya was really worried about Jay, he left 3 years ago and was supost to come back 2 years ago. Everyone was worried about Jay except from the looks of it Kai was not that worried. Nobody knows this but he is actually jealous that Jay was given a better responsibility than him.

Nya's POV

It' been 2 years since Jay was supost to return and still hasn't so over the years I have been in my room everyday about crying because I miss him SO much. Can you blame me? He's my boyfriend and has gone missing, so I told everyone but Kia that tomorrow I was going to the dark island to go look for Jay. Every day for about 3 weeks I have been working on my Samurai X suit to make the journey to the Dark Island. I just HAVE to find out what happened to Jay. I dropped the wrench I was using I sat on my bed and started crying again. I miss him so much.

"Oh Jay*sob* were are you?"

Cole's POV

"28 minutes," Kai yelled

"He is only 3 minutes away from breaking is record," I replied, then after I said that I noticed a white blur in the water,

" Zane is coming up" I told Kai, once Zane hit the surface of the water and got a breath of air he asked

"Did I break the record?" Then he started climbing the ladder onto the Bounty

"Zane you were 3 minutes away what happened?" I asked while Kai was helping him off the ladder. Then he responded with

"possibly this." Then he opened his secret chest panel and water came pouring onto the deck. I then handed him a towel and said

" Well at least you didn't short circuit."

"Ya that would been bad." Kai said then Zane took the chance to say,

"Yes indeed, if I malfunctioned I dont know what could have happened." Then there was nothing but silence, usually Jay would be the first to speak , but ever since sensei Wu sent Jay to the Dark island to train its been quiet here, and the whole team seems to have fallen apart. I think Nya is taking it harder than any of us after all she loves him and he was supost to return 2 years ago and didn't, but Kai is really starting to anger me, it looks like is is actually happy that Jay is gone,I keep asking him why he does not seem upset or worried but he keeps saying that he is"yeah right" I keep telling myself. Now im not so worried, because Nya is going to the Dark Island to find out what happened to him. She told us not to tell Kai because last time she told him she was going to find him Kai stopped her and said

"Jay is fine he is probably coming home tomorrow, he will be home before you know it, he will be at that door as talkative as ever." But that was a year ago now Nya is really going to find him weather Kai liked it or not. I was snapped out of my thoughts when out of nowhere Nya came out and said

"Hey guys."We all turned around because we didnt hear Nya come. Her eyes were red and her kimono was wet, I think she was crying again.

"Hey Nya"I said

"Hi sis"Kai said walking up to her and putting an arm around her shoulder to comfort her.

"Good afternoon Nya"Zane said drying him self off

"So Zane did you break the record?"Nya asked taking Kai's arm off her shoulder.

"I am afraid not, I beleave my bolts need to be tightened. Water has managed to get through."

"Oh well I guess I'll have to take a look at that later on."Nya said then she walked back to her room.

"Is it just me or does she seem upset?" Kai asked.

"No I thought she was parfact- OF COURSE SHE IS UP SET"I yelled at Kai. I mean how could he not notice how sad Nya is? Granted I am still a little sad she picked Jay, but he is a brother. Nya loves him and now that he has gone missing she his heart broken, stupid. I think I must have said the last sentence out loud because Kai said

"I know she loves him, but I thought she was stronger than this. And I'm not stupid!" Thats were for some odd reason I snapped.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU THOUGHT SHE WAS STRONGER! JAY IS MISSING AND YOU THOUGHT NYA WOULDNT BREAK DOWN ABOUT IT! WHATS THE MATTER WITH YOU? ITS LIKE YOU DONT EVEN CARE THAT JAY COULD POSSIBLY BE HURT!"Even though I didn't want to do that it felt good to get it off my chest. Kai didn't answer for a good few seconds then he said

"I thought Nya wouldn't be so upset about this! And I do care about Jay! I am worried that something bad happened to him. But I highly doubt that he has gone missing!"

"Then what do you call it, huh!?"Than Kai said nothing he just stood there looking down at the floor boards

"Yeah that's what I thought"I said walking into the Bounty.

Kai's Pov

"Then what do you call it, huh!?"Cole asked yelling at me. I didn't respond, I was hurt that he was yelling at me like that, but angry that we had to talk about Jay for the 100th time. I remember the BIG argument me and Nya had one day she tried to leave the Bounty and go look for Jay.

Flash Back Starts

I was in the game room with the others, playing Jay's favorite game. Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock. I never got to play this game when Jay was here because he would always hog it every night. I was doing my guitar solo when Nya walks in wearing her samurai armor I then pause the game making the other groan in anger and I walk up to her to ask her what she is doing

"Nya where are you going?"

"To go look for Jay"She says instantly, I didn't want Nya to leave the Bounty lets just say I was enjoying myself without the mouth of lighting being here. So I told her

'"No your not Nya, your staying here"

"WHAT WHY!" She yells at , WHAT she yelled at me. She has never yelled at me before.

"Why Kai? Why can't I go look for Jay he was supost to come back a year ago, I'm worried about him!" She says, I can tell she was trying to hold back some tears.

"Because I dont want you leaving the Bounty."I told her

"Why don't you want me to leave the Bounty. All the evil is go-" I didnt give her a chance to finish her sentence because I cut her off.

"I HAVE MY REASONS FOR THINGS OK! YOUR NOT LEAVING THE BOUNTY!" I can't beleave I did that I walk back to the guitar I put on the floor. I look back to Nya but she was gone and a few drops of liquid were on the floor.

Flash Back Ends

Nya still has not forgiven me for that. To be honest I love Jay he is really cool to be around, but lets just say, I don't thinks its fair that he gets better trust from sensei then me.I knock myself out of my thoughts to find out I was standing alone in the middle of the deck looking like an idiot. I run inside the Bounty. When I walk into the kitchen I am welcomed to the most horrible smell ever. ( Hmm I wonder who is cooking? ) I know that Cole had to be cooking. Usually Jay would cook today but now that he left Cole always volunteers to cook on Jay's night, which sadly is the night after Cole's. So yay Cole gets to cook for 2 days straight. That means the devil that's inside his food gets to mess with us longer, woo hoo. I walk into the dining room to find everyone wearing close lines on their noses. Nya's face was still red and she was looking a the ground. sometimes I wish I would have let her go to she could at least find out what happened to Jay. Zane tossed me a close pin and I immediately clip it on my nose. I sit next to Nya and stort to rub her back to confort her.

"DINERS READY!" I hear Cole call from the kitchen. He comes in with a big bowl of... WHAT IS THAT!

"Umm Cole what exactly is that?"Nya askes slightly moving away from the bowl of the unknown.

"Its my chilli"He said. THAT'S HIS CHILLI!? WOW his cooking got worse!

"Umm im not hungry"Nya said walking out of the dining room.

"Umm I have to... umm... bye" I said running out of the room. I then hear footsteps behind me so I guess Zane followed me. I walk into the room the four od us shared, with Zane close behind.

"So what was your excuse?"I asked him

"What do you mean?"

"I mean what did you tell Cole so you didn't have to eat that 'food'?"

"I simply told him I could not eat, because my falcon has returned."

"He did!?"I was a little surprised. Zane sent out his falcon to watch over Ninjago.

I was about to ask Zane how far away was his falcon but i decided not to. I looked at the clock that read 8:23, not that we defeated the evil I have been going to bed at 9:00 most days. I was really tired today so I decided to go to bed early. I got my pjs and when to the bathroom for obvious reasons and to change. Once I came out I floppes down on my bed and slowly drifted off to sleep.

Nya's Pov

It was 8:52 and Kai seemed really tired today so I decided to check my supplies to see if I have everything.

food, check

samurai armor, check

phone, check

I walked out of my room and go up to the guys to tell them im heading out. I make it to their bedroom and I softly knock on the door so I don't wake Kai up. Zane opens the door wearing his pajamas.

"Greetings Nya"He says to me (don't ask my why I made Zane sound like an alien it was the first thing that popped in my head)

"Hi Zane. I just wanted to come by and say goodbye for a while, I'm leaving now."

"Be safe Nya, be sure a talk to Jay and ask him to home home."

"Promise"I said and he closed the door and I walked to the deck. I pressed the red button on my samurai armor and the my exso suit came flying towards me. Once it lande I climb inside and set the coördinates for the dark island and then I take off. I'm on my way Jay.
