Jaya- Is Water Wet?

(Seabound or S15, as Nya's powers are beginning to act up.)

"For the last time, Jay Edward Walker, WATER IS WET!" Nya thundered.

"But water makes things wet, and because it is already water, there's nothing to make wet," Jay asserted.

Before Nya could make her point, however, an alarm began binging. All the Ninja and P.I.X.A.L. flooded into the command center. 

"Another Miss Demeanor sighting?" Kai guessed.

"A bank heist?" Cole asked.

"The Mechanic wreaking havoc?" Zane questioned.

P.I.X.A.L. placed a hand to her temple and ran some code. "I cannot isolate the source of the alarm. I can only assume that it was either a false alarm, what one of the boys would call a 'butt dial,' or a system error."

Nya threw up her hands and stormed off to the Samurai X Cave as a rumbling began to shake the command center. Then the plumbing began rattling.

P.I.X.A.L. spoke up, "I believe I have isolated the source of the-"

Water pipes and sprinklers exploded, drenching the group. 

"I have isolated the source of the alarm," P.I.X.A.L. sighed defeatedly.

Zane looked around. "Does anyone possibly know what upset Nya?"

Jay avoided Zane's eyes.

"Jay?" Zane asked, "Do you have anything to do with this?"

"All I said was that water isn't wet! And it's not because water is itsel-"

Lloyd cut him off. "Jay, we're supposed to be a team. We can't spend our time on pointless internet arguments when we still have a city to protect! And we can't do it in wet gis, they'll chafe. So what you need to do is fix it with Nya. Surely no bickering is worth this much trouble."

Master Wu smiled. "It appears the student has become the teacher."

Jay sighed. "I guess you're right. Nya- and our team, of course-"

The Ninja exchanged smirks.

"... Is worth more than dividing us all."

"I'd toast to that," said Kai, "but I think we've gotten a big enough drink already."

With his friends' "encouragement" Jay made his way to the Samurai X Cave.

"Go away," said Nya.

Jay didn't leave. "I came to apologize... I didn't mean to upset you, and I've come to the realization that nothing is worth more than you. Even being right. I should've seen it before, but it took me too long. Can you forgive me?"

Jay heard a sigh. So she'd at least heard him.

"Of course I do," Nya eventually said, coming up and taking his hand, "on one condition."

"What do you have in mind?"

"Dinner and candles, and a fusion dragon flight... oh, and NO more talking about water being wet," Nya smiled.

That's what Jay loved to see. Her smile could power New Ninjago City, and then overload the power grid. "That sounded like more than one condition, but I'll allow it. You have a deal."

Jay and Nya returned to the command center where everyone was mopping, toweling, and drying everything. With a flick of her hand, Nya dried up all the water, then left to change for her date.

After she left, Jay slumped in a chair, relieved.

Zane looked up. "You know, as I was studying information on hydrodynamics, I read that the state of being wet involves touching a molecule of liquid. Because water is highly cohesive, that is to say, sticking to itself..."

"I know," Jay laughs, "Water is wet."

And with that, Jay left to dress for his date.
