Change (A Ninjago story)

Realizations and Regrets

Cole's Pov

The police took Ronin, The Mechanic, and the bird guy into custody. We drove back home to the Monastery in complete silence. I couldn't take the quiet. What's with Jay? I haven't seen him that angry since I honestly can't remember when. He looked like he'd gone through with taking Ronin out. I understand his anger well... for the most part. How could Ronin do that? I guess it's naive of me to think he changed. Some things never change. Why can't bad things change and good things stay the same? Unfortunately, life doesn't work that way; if it did Nya would be back and our team would be happy again. 

Jay's Pov

What the hell was I thinking? I can't let my emotions take control of me; not again. Forget and go on living. Separate my life from being a ninja. Who am I kidding? I have no life outside of being a ninja. If I was anything my identity has been stripped away as an individual. I shouldn't pity myself anymore. I shouldn't have in the first place I signed up for this and I'm going to stick to it; to the bitter end. For Nya that's what she would do, right?

Kai's Pov 

Jay why didn't you tell me. F*cking *sshole. No, Jay is just upset. So am I. Does he not trust me? God, why is everything so messed up. Come to think of it when has it ever not been messed up. My parents gone for most of my life and all of Nyas growing up. All these battles we won but at what cost? Skylar leaving. My fault again; I seem to mess up every time. But Nya leaving that hurt the most. I know it's selfish I know she's happy I can feel it. I just miss her. She's been there every moment I needed her but now, she's not.  The team is broken and I can't help but blame myself. 

Lloyd's Pov

I know I'm supposed to guide my friends to the right path but who will help me. I can't seem to fix anything lately or ever; I just temporarily fix things. Every time I think we are done, everything's peaceful. No, I couldn't be more mistaken. Just looking back how many times have I failed. I can't count. The only reason I've made it this far is because of the ninja. Without them I'm nothing. They fix problems I create and they get sh*t for it because it doesn't fit the standard everyone expects them to meet. I'm more of a weight than a leader. My father and Harumi are perfect examples. It was my fight and the guys along with Master Wu almost died trying to stop them. Nya was the only one left. I have my mother and yes I do love her but... Nya she raised me. My mother wasn't there and I can't help but resent her for it. Nya took up that burden. I was a difficult child anyone who says otherwise is just a liar. Nya helped me onto the path that I was meant to be on. She may be Kai's biological sister but she's my sister too. I miss her every day. The team is deteriorating around us slowly without you. Please come home.
