A Meeting
Today was the day the team will be whole once again, but not what they would like. Non have spoken to one another since they split and many have some beef with one another. It's bad enough most broke one rule, but about half of the team has broken two.
As the host of the gathering, she has to make sure that everything was in perfect harmony. The main thing for her though was to hide her mistake, or shall she say someone else's. The raven's home was quiet small, but perfect size for her to handle and a lot less cleaning as of her other so called friends.
She knew they were going to have the meeting in the living room and she needed to hide multiple things in order to keep her secret. The young eighteen year old picked up blankets, cups, and cleaning supplies and put them in the rightful place. The door bell rang and before the girl opened it she walked over to her bedroom and closed the door quietly.
She then went to her front door, took a deep breath, and opened it. There it reveled a boy not much older then her with dirty blonde hair that covers part of his face with emerald green eyes, and wore a denim green jacket with white destressed pants. "Hi Nya, long time no see" the boy spoke as he gave her a quick hug.
Nya smiled at her old friend, "It's good seeing you too, Lloyd" she responded. They pulled from their hug and right behind him was her own brother himself, "Don't I get a hug?" The spikey burnet asked with a tint of sarcasm. The Master of Water rolled her eyes and gave her brother a hug and pecked him on the cheek, "How would I ever forget my own brother, Kai" she giggled as she released him from the hug.
"Please, come inside. We have to catch up with each other over our hiatus" Nya insisted as Kai and Lloyd entered her small home. Much different to what the Master of Fire's oboe; it had white brick for walls with gray interiors for baseboards and ceiling. The floor was a nice soft brown color and many furniture's were either a baby blue, or marron.
The three had a seat on the marron colored couch as they chatted on what life has been for them during the break. Then the doorbell rang again and Nya went up to answer leaving the two boy on the couch. She came back in with a man with long black shaggy hair with hazel eyes and wore a loose black tank top with brown sweatpants. And lets just say he must've had many work out session to look that muscular.
"What's up me homies" The figure known mostly as Cole teased as he plopped down on the couch next to Kai. The Master of Energy grinned, "It doesn't look like you aged a bit! While the rest of us look like crap" Lloyd laughed. Kai and Cole joined along in the commotion as they could barely breath once they finally calmed down.
While the boys were caught up in there laughter, Nya greeted her most honored friend as his icy blonde hair stick up in place, had icy blue eyes, and wore a dashing white sweater vest with jeans and a pair of sneakers. "Hello my dear friend, it has been quite some time I presume" Zane addressed.
"It truly has been, Zane. You go on to the living room, the boys are already there, I have one more person to accompany me" Nya told her dearest friend. The Master of Ice simply nodded and went over to the living room. The only female sighed and closed the door as she was now on her front porch.
It wasn't long until a nice blue Mercedes parked in the drive way. And she knew exactly who was in the car and what first happened in it. A man with dark chocolate hair and electric blue eyes with specks of brown upon his pale cheeks with a dark blue sweatshirt and black destressed pants. She knew him all too well. The man walked up to the women.
"Hello, Walker" Nya welcomed. Jay looked at the women in awe, she didn't change one bit since he left. She still had her raven hair tied in a high pony with a little mole on her cheek, she wore a gray blouse with white high waisted jeggings. Her ocean eyes filled with mixed emotions that the Master of Lightning knew she would have. And he knew very well why she hates him.
"Hi Nya, you look stunning" Jay admired as he tucked his hands in his front pockets. The Master of Water tried not to show any emotion, but a slight pink arose upon her cheeks, "Thanks the others are inside, we were just waiting for you" Nya told him. He nodded as he walked off letting his shoulder bump into Nya's, and she knew it was on purpose too.
The two walked back into the living room and sat down far away from each other. The room was awkward and silent, no one knew what to say or what to do, but stare into each others eyes. The silence then broke, "I have something to tell you guys about" Lloyd spoke getting everyone's attention.
"The Creator knows. He knows everything about us breaking his rules in his game. We need to fight back before he finds us and possibly kill" Lloyd announced. "How exactly would we do that my friend? We haven't fought together in a very long time" Zane informed the Master of Energy.
"He knows that Zane, but we are running out of time" Kai told him, "If we don't do something now then we are all going to lose something important to us or even ourselves." The boy in blue sighed, "How can we trust each other though? We all know that we broke at least one of the 6 rules, so how can we cope with it?" Jay asked.
Cole sighed and stood up from the couch and said, "Then we tell each other what we did. We will revel what rule we broke and hope that it will separate our differences." They all looked at each other with concerning looks, but came to the agreement. "That'll work" Lloyd said, "So who's going first?"
The Master of Ice straighten up from his seat, "I shall go first. I have broken Rule #3, working with the enemy. It was a bad time already and I didn't know what to do. It wasn't until an old friend of mine named Cryptor came along and asked if I wanted to work with him. I said yes and left the team. I helped with scanning our captives, hacking into police scanners, and so much more. But then one day we had to break into a house and there was a family there. My collide was about to kill them as they were all on their knees begging for mercy, but before he was about to shoot I stepped in front of the family and protected them from harm. I was shot about ten times before the police arrived and took my friends away. They left me there since I had a change of heart, it was also the day that I realized something else. I'm a robot" Zane explained.
Everyone's mouth's dropped to the floor on his last sentence. A robot? They have known him for years and they didn't know he was a robot? What friends they were. "I would have never guessed. For both the crime thing and being a robot. You look so human though, that's just scary" Nya said astonished. Zane chuckled a little, "Took me by surprise as well, but I'm better now" He told them.
Kai tensed, "Well then since we're on the 'crime' them I'll share my story. It was on our very last mission as a full team and we were fighting that snake gang. I was fighting off he dude named pythor and he started to taunt me. He started saying insults to me as I was fighting him. He started to bring up what he would do to my family and friends if I let him escape. His words got into my head and instead of turning him in, I took my katana and beheaded him. I was overwhelmed with emotions and I didn't know what else to do so I left. Took some therapy here and there, but in the end I broke rule #1 and the most important one too" The Master of Fire confessed.
"The scream. That's what it was in the alley?" Lloyd questioned, "Kai, you knew killing is never the answer!" That shout took everyone by surprise, "If it was you in the situation you would've done the same thing" He murmured which Lloyd heard loud and clear, "I'm sorry, but I'm smart so I don't make those kinds of choices."
You could see the rage filled in Kai's eyes, "When someone starts threatening your only sister you have left then of course I'm going to react! I'm protecting my family from getting hurt again!" He yelled making Nya frighten. "AT LEAST YOU HAVE A FAMILY STILL!" Lloyd screamed getting the whole room quiet.
The Master of Fire looked down at the floor, "Someone else go before I blow up" He pleaded. Cole sighed, "Mine isn't as bad as that, but I broke code #5. My father was getting suspicious about my whereabouts and practically whipped me to death until I said anything. I told him what I was doing, who I was working with, and telling him multiple locations. The next day he called the police and put me back on house arrest for seven months for doing something without government consult" He said.
"So you told him all our secrets?" Jay asked. Cole nodded, "Even the police" He added. It truly wasn't as bad as the killing, but now they got the government on their trail now. "Jay how about you go next?" Cole insisted.
Jay smirked at looked directly over to Nya, "So would you like to tell or do you want me to spill the beans?" He asked her. All Nya did was glare at him she didn't say one word, "Fine I'll spill. I broke Rule #2. I had the affair with no other then the Master of Water herself. It lasted for over two years until we started to hear rumors that the Creator was out for blood so I left for Nya's safety and my own" He finished with Nya using the same rage as her brother, but more calm.
"That's not how it went, Walker" She hissed at him with venom filled in her voice. Jay stood from his seat and walked in front of his ex, "Really cause if I remember correctly that you have lied to me multiple times Ms. Smith or should I say Ms. Cheater!" he yelled.
At this point steam was coming out of Nya's ears, "No I didn't you dingbat! Listen! You ran off like a coward when I told you one simple thing and you got scared and ran off leaving me behind!" She yelled back getting into his face. "I am not a coward!" He yelled back, "You were the one who got the abortion! Not me!" He yelled.
Slight cries were heard from another room making Jay's eyes widen, "You didn't do it did you?" He asked shocked and scared. Nya took in a deep breath and went into her room, she came out of it a second later with something wrapped in a light blue blanket as she calmed whatever was inside, "This is what you left behind" Nya said in a quiet tone.
Jay felt like he was about to bawl on his knees and cry, but he didn't. He looked into the blanket to see a little boy with dark brown hair and a notch in one of his eyebrows. "I shall tell my part of the story" She growled as she got a fresh bottle of formula and came back over to the couch and feed the little bundle.
"It happened over two years ago when Jay and I first became best friends. We always thought that of each other until nice song came on and we sang to the lyrics. As the song got more quieter we looked at each other differently until we kissed. We then decided to keep our relationship a secret. So we continued with it and one night we went a little too crazy and wounded up making love. Two weeks later I felt horrible and took a little test and it said positive. I then I told Jay that I was going to have his baby and he said he doesn't want to take care of a child at age nineteen. He said he would stay if I got an abortion, so I never gave him an answer and he left the next day. Then three days later I got worse I could barely do anything and decided to leave. I spent a full nine months alone and scared of what could go wrong with me having a child, but once I had him I never wanted to let go of him" Nya told the group.
"What's his name?" Jay asked a lot more kindly then forcefully. Nya looked back down at her buddle of joy, "Cliff Jason Smith, or C.j for short. It was in honor of the fathers before him" She exclaimed as a tear fell down her face before quickly wiping it away.
Kai looked like he was about to have a cow, "Why didn't you tell me?" Kai asked. "I tried calling you, but you never answered so I assumed that you weren't at a good place either" She told him. "Well then how old is he?" Lloyd asked a bit more excited. Nya giggled, "About 5 in a half months or so."
"First off congrats, and second hope Jay can get his act together, and third, Lloyd what rule did you break?" Cole asked. Lloyd sighed, "Rule #6. Everyone left and I didn't want to face our enemies alone, so I quit and broke our code NNQ" He explained.
"Ninja never quits" Kai repeated. "Then we shouldn't quit" Zane encouraged as he stood from his seat, "I say we know our down falls and we should put them aside and fight! If the Creator is after us then I say we fight for our freedom, fight for our homes and families, fight for our rights!"
"Then what are we waiting for?" Jay asked, "We'll leave everything tomorrow at dawn and start training." The Master of Lightning looked at his son and smiled, "Nya, I know you don't trust me anymore, but for C.j's safety let him stay at my adoption parents junkyard" Jay told Nya.
She looked down at her sleeping child and nodded even though she still has doubts. "Alright then let this journey begin!" Lloyd announced.
