*Not Again*

Pam opened her eyes to find herself in her room and in her bed. But…what is she doing in bed when it's still daylight outside? She then started to crawl out of bed…only to be pulled back in by a pair of strong violet arms.

"Not so fast, pretty girl," a male voice purred.

Oh, no…not again…

"Pythor, let go!" the girl groaned, struggling to get out of Pythor's grip as he wrapped his coils around her while still holding her.

"Oh, but I just got you in my embrace," he playfully whimpered as he nuzzled his cheek into hers.

"I gotta get ready for training," she protested. "If I'm not out there five minutes after the guys get there, they're gonna come in here to make sure I'm alright. And let me tell ya…it won't be pretty."

"Oh, you're worrying too much," he chuckled, giving her a loving squeeze with his arms and coils. "Especially when they're out for the day."

"Say what?"

"Sensei gave them some time off at the last minute; has to go out for more tea."

"Great…" she groaned with sarcasm. "What a time for him to run out…"

"Let's just enjoy our time together," Pythor purred before kissing her neck and squeezing his coils to massage her body.

*Meet Shawna (after Truly Blessed Uncle)*

Everyone stood up when the door finally opened. And out stepped Kai holding his new niece Shawna in his arms. He then looked up at them with a smile.

"Everyone," he said to them, "meet Shawna." He then lowered his arms a bit so that they would see her sleeping face.

"Aaawww…" the Generals cooed when they saw the baby.

"She's so beautiful," Pythor said softly. "Oh, who's eyes does she have?"

"Her father's," Kai answered.

"Ha! I knew it!" Cole chuckled before turning to Skalidor and holding out his hand. "Pay up."

"Last time I'll ever bet on babies," the Constrictai grumbled before handing him a twenty.

"Kai, I am so proud of you, Jay, and Nya," Garmadon said to the Fire Ninja.

"So…will she be considered my niece or my baby sister now?" asked Lloyd since the ninja are considered his brothers.

"I'm computing you're more of her potential role model," Zane answered.

"Cool." Kai just smiled before looking down at his niece. He can understand why they've mentioned the role model part; Shawna's got quite a future ahead of her as the daughter of the Samurai and the Blue Ninja of Lightning. Who knows…she might inherit their smarts.

*Alura's Personal Bodyguard*

"Hey, Alura," Lloyd said to her as they sat in the snow together to look out at the mountains. "I couldn't help but notice that your brother seems a little…edgy whenever a male Hypnobrai approaches you or tries to talk to you. Why is that?"

"Oh, he's just trying to be a good big brother," she answered casually. "Ever since our parents passed away, he's been protecting me from all those other males wanting to woo me. I guess it's because my heart belongs to another."

"Another Hypnobrai?"

"Serpentine, yes. Hypnobrai, no." Lloyd arched his eyebrow in confusion.

"Huh?"

"I…I'm in love with this other Serpentine outside of the Tribe," she explained nervously. "Don't tell anyone I told you this, but—"

"Lady Alura!" The two of them turned to see a Soldier Hypnobrai approaching them. "I apologize for disturbing you, but—"

"HIII-YAAAAAH!" The Soldier was cut off when Skales jumped out of nowhere and kung fu kicked him to the side. Seeing that, Lloyd's eyes went wide with surprise.

"Wow…just…wow…" Skales then brushed his palms together before turning to him and Alura.

"Everything alright, little sister?" he asked calmly. "He wasn't bothering you or anything?"

"No, I'm alright, Skales," she answered with a smile. "Thanks." He returned the smile before walking away, and Alura turned back to the shocked Lloyd. "What can I say? He's my personal bodyguard."
