After Lloyd explained everything, I nodded, processing it. After a while, I sighed.
"So...I have powers? I'm a ninja?" I said.
He nodded,, "Yes, and yes."
"Does this mean I'm special?" I asked.
He thought about that, his face showing concentration, "Yea, I guess you could say that..."
I frowned, I knew I wasn't special, maybe this was just a big mistake. Maybe I wasn't this special ninja, they had the wrong person. I was an outcast, a loser...
"I think you've got the wrong person..." I whispered, looking down.
"Why is that?" He asked, looking at me.
"Well...I'm an outcast, I've been bullied, called names...I'm not special..." I said, tears forming, my throat felt like it had a knot in it.
"Kylie..." He sighed, "I don't know what to say, but you're wrong. Get some rest, you'll need it for tomorrow," he said, giving me a hug.
I nodded, hugging him back, before heading back to the room I had been in for God knows how long... I layed down, wondering how long I'd been out... I shake it off, closing my eyes, sleep covering me like a warm blanket...Or, was an actual blanket placed on me...? I couldn't tell, my mind had already been lost in the soothing waves of peaceful sleep.
My dream was different from normal, I saw a black figure in front of me. It looked smokey, and I couldn't really make it out, but I knew, somehow, I was in a bad place. The figure somehow seemed to grin evilly at me, and I found that I couldn't move. I looked down, realizing I was chained, I looked up at the figure.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"You...and the one they call Lloyd..." The figure said, it's voice booming, seeming to come from everywhere.
Shadows surrounded me, swallowing my body, "You will be mine..."
I awoke with a jolt, sweating, and breathing quickly. I saw that I did have a blanket on, it was black and fluffy. I was in full fight or flight mode right now, my heart going crazy in my chest. Who was that...? I thought, my mind whirling. After a while I calmed down, wiping away my sweat with the back of my hand. My mind then wondered to the blanket. How did it get there? And who put it on me? I looked over the color of it, remembering the black ninja. What had they called him? Cole? Yea, I think that was the name, or was it Kyle? I couldn't remember that well, it seemed fuzzy, distant. I sighed, calming my thoughts, just then my stomach growled, making me realize how hungry I was. How long had it been since I'd last eaten? I didn't know at all. The door creaked, alarming me that someone was coming it, I snapped my head up, looking at the door. It was just the black ninja, I sighed, relaxing. He smiled.
"Hey, you're finally awake!" He said, shutting the wooden door.
I nodded, "Yes, I am..."
He sat in the wooden chair beside my bed, and I realized he had a plate of food in his left hand, a glass in his right.
"Hungry? Kai cooked breakfast, he told me to deliver it to you. Oh, and I'm Cole, by the way," he said, giving me the plate.
My stomach rumbled, answering for me, as I looked at the plate. He chuckled at my stomach's reaction, leaning back in the chair. The plate had two sunny-side up eggs, accompanied by two triangle shaped, buttered, pieces of bread, three pieces of bacon, and a sausage.
"I'll hold your drink for you," he told me, holding a clear glass of what looked like apple juice.
I nodded, digging in, flavor filling my mouth with each bite. I heard him laugh, but I didn't care, I was hungry. After I finished with the food, my stomach was satisfied, and I took the drink from him, chugging it. After I was finished, he spoke up.
"So, I never caught your name," he said, raising an eyebrow, "I presume you have one?" He grinned.
"Oh, sorry, I'm Kylie," I said shyly but politely.
He nodded, "I hope you get settled in soon, then we can begin training."
"Cole...I don't think I'm the one you want. I think you have the wrong girl," I said, frowning.
He scrunched his bushy eyebrows together in confusion, "Of course you're the one we want, you proved it, don't you remember when you first encountered me? I don't follow people's orders that easily, Kylie."
I shrugged, "I don't know..."
"Listen," he said sternly, "Kylie, why do you think that?"
"Because, I'm the outcast, the loser, the one in the back of the classroom, the one who never speaks, the one who sits alone at lunch. I get chosen last for any sport, I don't get the solos I try out for, I'm the one with no friends...I can't be this special ninja with powers, Cole, I just can't," I said, feeling tears well up.
He nodded, not hesitating, "Kylie, maybe you were chosen because of those things...Because you're different, you're unique. Yes, maybe, you do get made fun of, maybe you are the shy one. But guess what? That's not bad. Maybe you were chosen, because deep down, you still had one thing you never let go of. You had love." He said, now looking at me like I was some angel.
I nodded, smiling, "You're right...Thank you, Cole..."
"No prob, but just promise me something," he said.
"What?" I asked.
"Don't tell anyone that I helped you out, it would ruin my image..." He grinned sheepishly.
I laughed, "My lips are sealed!"
