Next chapter... And sorry to all my readers I don't have much time to update with school and basketball... I hardly have any time to myself. But I shall update when I can :D
Kai's P.O.V.
I couldn't shake the feeling that I knew that one girl. Lloyd felt it too, so we decided to ask our father.
"Maybe it was just a bad memory," Dad told us. "Someone you hurt you in the past. But she doesn't seem familiar to me."
"A bad memory?" I asked.
"Yes."
I shrugged my shoulders. There was something he wasn't telling us...
"Ok, thanks Dad," I said, walking out with Lloyd. On the TV, we overheard Zane watching the news.
"Ninjago City is under attack! Serpentine are running lose, robbing banks and destroying everything in sight!" And for some reason, Lloyd and I both impulsively ran outside to go fight off the Serpentine.
Lord Garmadon's P.O.V.
Damn. They met the Serpentine Kids. But how do they already know one of them...?
Jojo's P.O.V.
At Aaron and Ashley's house, we had set up an alarm system to warn us of any evil. When we got there today, the alarm was already going off. "Let's go!" I shouted, and we all ran to the location of the trouble.
"Wait a second," Brian said. "Aren't those two of the new kids?!"
"Yeah... WHY ARE THEY FIGHTING SERPENTINE?!" Ashley shrieked.
"Who cares! We gotta clean this up!" I commanded, turning myself invisible. The other four spread out to kick snake butt, while I went for Pythor.
I was almost behind him when he turned invisible, too. "I can sssssee you now," he hissed. Damn.
"You really think I give two fucks?" I replied.
"CAPTURE THE KIDSSSS!" Pythor shouted to his followers.
"We're gonna beat your asses again, so you won't be takin us prisoner any time soon."
An evil grin spread across his face. "Who said I wanted you?" I looked over to see the two boys being held captive by a group of Constrictai.
"Shit," I muttered as Pythor yelled "RETREAT!"
Aaron saw the snakes' plan, and attacked the Constrictai holding the boys. Even though they were born with the tribe's powers, Aaron was still stronger, saving the boys before the Serpentine ran off.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" Rebecca shouted at them when we regrouped.
"Calm down," Brian said to his sister. "They were just trying to help."
"They only made things worse!"
"Too bad, it's over now," Aaron snapped. That shut everyone up.
"You're Kai and Lloyd, right?" Ashley asked. The boys nodded. Looking at each of them, I got that strange feeling again.
"Do I know you?" Lloyd blurted out. He was talking to me.
I glanced at the rest of the group. "Um, can I talk to you two in private?" Suspicious looks were thrown my way as my friends walked away.
"How do you know me?" I asked.
"We don't know," Kai said. "You just seem really familiar, and Lloyd thinks he even knows your name."
I raised an eyebrow, but Lloyd said "It's Josephine, right?"
"How did you know that?!"
"It just came to me," Lloyd said, shrugging.
"Look, we really need your help," Kai said. "Our dad isn't telling us something. We were in an accident and went into a coma, and now we can't remember anything. When we asked about you, he seemed to be hiding something. He just said you were a bad memory, but that was it."
"Interesting... What's your father's name?"
"Garmadon," Lloyd replied. He must have seen my horrified expression. "What's wrong?"
"Garmadon... As in LORD Garmadon? The dark lord, destined to battle his own son - the green ninja?!"
"What are you -" Kai started, then a look of recognition flashed in his eyes. Lloyd obviously felt it too, but they both shook it off. "You're probably thinking of the wrong person."
"There's only one person named Garmadon in all of Ninjago." Silence.
"Hey Jojo! My mom's calling, so we gotta leave!" Ashley called.
"I'll be right there!" I called back. I turned back to Kai an Lloyd. "I gotta go... bye." Then I turned and sprinted towards the others.
**The Next Day...
I was sitting in History, when I noticed Lloyd was in my class. While the teacher was lecturing about the French revolution, I shot Lloyd a note.
This class is so boring.
A couple seconds later, the note returned.
I've noticed. And this is only my second day. How do you put up with it?
Me: Music
Lloyd: Won't that get you in trouble?
Me: Only if you're not careful.
I didn't tell him that I could make it invisible.
Lloyd: I take it you're careful?
Me: Very.
Lloyd: Are you sure my dad's evil?
Well that was random.
Me: I'm almost positive... You said you were in an accident. How did that happen?
Lloyd: According to my dad, we were trick-or-treating in ninja costumes, then got hit by a car. We all went into a coma for a couple months, and here we are.
Wait - ninja costumes? And there were five of them... THEY MIGHT BE THE NINJA! And Garmadon might have done something to them to make them forget! Then, I remembered something that proved they were the ninja...
**Flashback - 5 Years Ago...
They were gaining on me. I had nowhere to run. "There she is! GET HER!" Samukai shouted. I tried to run, but I was trapped. The skeletons took slow, steady steps towards me. My heart was racing as fast as I wished I could be running right now.
"Leave her alone!" a firm voice shouted from behind the group.
"It's the ninja! RETREAT!" I guess they thought they had no chance or something.
"Thank you so much!" I said once the skeletons were gone.
The ninja walked up to me. "Josephine?" said the red one.
"Ummm... Do I know you?"
He flipped off his mask, and the other guys followed. "We only met, like, once. I'm Kai - your cousin."
Kai then went on to introduce me to the other ninja.
The faces of the ninja - they were the same as the faces of these five boys. I was about to tell Lloyd, but the bell rang before I could do anything.
Jojo already cracked the case! But how will she stop Garmadon's plan? How will her friends and the ninja react to this? Why do I always feel the need to ask these questions? Maybe it's my mental issues...
Anyway, don't forget to review!
