Chapter 23: Samurai Revealed
(Nya's POV)
My rockets started to malfunction and we ended up in the dessert after crashing. "We have to go back," Mag said clearing sand from her face. "We are out matched Mag. We need to be patient," I said trying to calm her down enough to listen to reason. "We can't just leave him!" she yelled. My helmet was on the fritz and I took it off. "We aren't leaving him," I said in my real voice "we're waiting to strike when the moment is right." "Nya?" I heard another voice. No! It was Kai! I put the helmet back on. "Stay away ninja! Don't… look… ," I sighed and realized my secret was blown. I took off my helmet, "Huh, at me." "You're the samurai? And you all knew about this?" Kai asked the others. "You'd be surprised what we do when you run off without us," Ally said. "Like what?" Kai asked probably thinking he shouldn't have. "Remember when the fish guts and oil got smashed and mixed with your hair gel?" "You didn't," he said crossing his arms. "Yeah, we actually did," Ally said smiling. "A Seagull Chased Me Around The Ship For 45 Minutes! It Kept Pecking My Head!" "That's why we did it," she said "because it was funny." He shook his head. "Are you mad?" I asked him. I never meant for him to be angry. I only wanted to prove that I wasn't just his younger sister. I could kick butt. "No I'm not mad. It's just, all this time I've tried protecting you and you don't need it." I smiled. "You better get the weapons and girls back to the bounty before they ask questions," I said handing him the wrapped up weapons. "How are you gonna get home?" he asked. "Oh, I have my ways," I pressed a button on my sleeve and my suit returned to me. I waved good bye as I left.
(Kai's POV)
"He just took off with a word," I lied to the guys "just handed me the weapons and 'poof' he was gone." "Poof, he just 'poofed' away," Cole said sounding annoyed. "It doesn't make sense Kai, if he had his hands on the most powerful weapons in the world, why would he just give them to you?" Jay asked. "I don't know maybe she… I mean he isn't such a bad guy after all."
(Mag's POV)
I failed. That was just it, I failed. I couldn't protect Lloyd. I can't believe I've lost him from my grasp again. I hate Pythor! When I get the chance I'm going to rip his lungs out and use his intestines as rope to hang him. I will kill him. "Hey," I looked to see Cole in the door way to my room. I was the only other one in there. "Hi," I said weak and timidly. "It's ok you know," he said sitting with me on the bed "we'll get Lloyd back unharmed and breathing." I felt like I should curl into a ball. Instead I buried my face into his shoulder and cried. He stroked my hair and it felt very nice, like new born baby's touch it caused me to smile and cry. "It's my fault," I said "I don't deserve to be a leader." "Don't you say that! You're a great leader who will get her brother back." I looked up at him and kissed his lips. He always made me feel safe. But I still couldn't believe I didn't save Lloyd.
