I don't know when I'll start up the series again. But here's a little start to being again

XxXxXxXxXx

"You've been here this whole time?" Cole asked his son.

"Yeah." CJ nods. "After what happened … happened. I thought I was alone. I couldn't find you, or mom or Lily, not even you Grandpa."

"How did you find Borg Tower, Junior?" Lou asked.

"I wandered the city, got lost. And then one of the people that worked with Grandpa Cyrus found me. And brought me here, and I've been here ever since."

Cole looks around. "The place looks." He trails off.

"The weird use to be the weird, and now the weird is normal." CJ replied. "Most of this stuff is Lily's ideas, I just built them. Lily gets the full credit."

"Where is your sister and mother?" Cole asked. "Where's Cyrus and your aunt?"

"Like you care." CJ huffed.

"Junior!" Lou scolded.

"What?" CJ scuffs. "It's not fair!"

"I know it's not." Cole replied. "But my job is to protect the innocent. Ninjago and everything was being threatened. I had to do my job! I'm sorry I wasn't there for my family. But."-

"You only care about being a Ninja!" CJ accuses hotly.

"Cole Junior that is enough, young man!" Lou scolds

"At first I use to believe that you only cared about Lily and mom." CJ continued, giving Cole a look.

"Junior!" Lou scolds.

"Now that is hitting below the belt." Cole told his son. "CJ, I'm sorry I wasn't there for my family. I tried to return home. I woke up someplace far away from Ninjago, I tried my best to return home. Do not blame what happened to the world, all on me!" He said sternly. "Our family is not the only one effected by this!"

"I know that!" CJ yelled, tears shined in his eyes. "We needed you more! Where were you when mom." He pauses, struggling to not break down. "When mom." He trailed off. "And then Lily." He couldn't continue.

Cole's shoulders slump. "I'm sorry we all disappeared on you. But yelling at me won't bring our family back together."

Up at the Monastery Of Spinjitzu.

Raya stood in the courtyard, standing in front of Master Wu's shrine. "I wish you were here Master Wu, I'm sorry for everything I've done while growing up. If you were here, then maybe it'd be easier in finding my mom."

The day is rarely quiet.

Nya slowly walked up to her niece. "Raya?"

"I miss Master Wu."

"I know you do." Nya said gently. "Especially Lloyd."

"Do we really know what happened to Master Wu?" Raya asks, turning to her aunt. "Is there any advance at his whereabouts or mom's whereabouts?" She asks hopefully.

Nya shook her head. "No. If there was any, then you know that Lloyd would be obsessed in trying to bring his uncle home." She took Raya's hands. "And we all know what your dad is like when it comes to your mom. If there's any chance, any at all, your dad would be annoyingly obsessed with bring her home."

"I'm not that obsessed." Kai huffed as he walked over to them, making them look at him. "What are my favorite girls doing?" He asked gently.

"What Master Wu tells us not to do. Dwell in the past." Raya answered, fully turning to face him. "I'm sorry I wasn't a better daughter."

That shocked both Kai and Nya.

"What?" Kai demanded. "Where did that come from!?"

Raya wipes her tears. "After all the stunts I pulled? Getting into trouble with Master Wu while you, Aunt Nya and the others were on missions. Getting Lily into trouble too, and it was always my idea."

Kai wrapped his arms around his daughter, holding her close. "Honey, you're my daughter. I'm a natural hot head, and your mom's father." He trails off.

"He and mom use to be bad guys." Raya nods against his chest. "I know."

"You do?" Kai asked in shock, he turns to Nya. "Sis."

Nya shook her head. "I never said anything. That was your and Skylor's department."

"Master Wu told me." Raya said softly. "It was for a school project. You guys were busy, and so was mom."

Kai held his daughter more tighter. "You were also being a kid. And kids like to get into trouble."

"I really want mom back. I miss her so much!"

Kai kissed the side of her head. "We all do sweetheart."

From the open entrance of the building. Wyldfire and Zane stood as they watched the Smith family, Zane was smiling softly.

Wyldfire huffs as she folds her arms. "That man is annoying. But he does care deeply for his young."

Zane turns to her, his smile gone. "You still have a lot to learn from him." With that, he leaves, leaving Wyldfire standing there and watching the Smith family.
