"Dr. Jennings, please report to the OR," a voice on the intercom said. Skylor winced at the loud voice, wondering where it had come from. It sounded like it came from the ceiling. Nya chuckled. "That was just the intercom," she told the girl. "It speaks to let other people know what is going on."

"Where did it come from?" Skylor asked. Nya pointed towards the speaker in the ceiling. Skylor laughed at herself for being so timid. "Sorry," she apologized. "I'm just not used to this kind of stuff yet."

"You'll get the hang of it," Nya assured her new friend. "It's been a while, and I know it's still tough." There was a long silence, so Skylor decided to change the subject. "How's Kai doing?" she asked.

Nya shrugged. "He's great. He just needed some rest and some treatment. He'll be better in a few days. You want to see him?" she asked. Skylor nodded shyly.

The Water Ninja led the way into Kai's hospital room. He was lying on the bed, flipping through a magazine, honestly a little bored. Skylor walked in. "Hey," Kai said while she sat down in a nearby chair. She smiled but didn't say anything. "I'll leave you two alone for a minute," Nya said, winking at them both before closing the door behind her.

"How are you doing?" Skylor asked the Fire Ninja. He shrugged. "Better. I haven't felt like I thanked you enough for what you did for me back in the forest," he said.

Skylor laughed. "It was all I could do," she admitted. "Still," Kai said, "the doctors say it was a lot easier to help me with you doing your previous work. So I'm not the only one that personally wants to thank you." Skylor blushed, turning away. She couldn't breathe with him raining down on her with compliments.

"You know," Kai started. "There's a lot for you to learn about the city. Maybe, when I'm discharged, I could show you around." Skylor looked up, curious. Kai smiled as he stared into her brown eyes. "I'd like that," she said. It was in that moment that Kai knew this was the very start of a wonderful relationship.

There we are, everyone! I am done with this story, but I started on Not About Numbers, so be sure to check that out! If you ever want to know, Kai did tell Skylor about Morro, but it helped them grow closer. It was not good for him to keep it from her, but I wouldn't blame him. He didn't know how she would react, and he certainly didn't want to make her upset. Ardhoniel out once again!
