No One's POV: (The POV will mainly be Kai, Jay, and Cole)

Zane walked inside of the restaurant about 10 minutes early. He sat down at a table. A couple minutes passed by, and Zane saw Nya walk in the door. "Early as always huh Zane?" Nya said. Zane chuckled. "Yes, it would be more formal to show up before your guests." Zane said. Nya laughed. "Still a walking bookshelf too."

Zane and Nya chatted for a while, just catching up and talking about their day, when the door opened 5 minutes later, and Cole and Jay walked in. "I told you not to walk on the road at that moment! But NO! You just had to go and nearly got us BOTH killed!" Jay ranted at Cole, who was dazed. "What happened to you?" Nya asked. "Yes, I am curious to know how you nearly got killed." Zane said bluntly. "Cole walked in the road thinking no one was driving down, and we nearly got run over by a semi-truck!" Jay shouted. "Please stop shouting! We are in public!" Nya said, there were people staring. Some were even whispering. "Hehe, I knew that." Jay said that making everyone facepalm except for Cole. "Cole, Jay, sit down." Zane said and the two sat down. "I'm hungry, we haven't eaten dinner yet." Jay said.

One minute passed by until 8:30 and they were still waiting for Kai. "He might not come; he's been doubting himself as a ninja ever since...you know." Nya said, looking at everyone who looked down. A minute passed and Kai walked in. "Sorry I'm late, I ran into some traffic." He said and sat down next to Nya. "It's alright but now whe-" CRASH! The loud noise of plates breaking warned the ninjas of trouble. They all turned their head to the source of the sound, and they didn't take long before jumping into action. Cole was fighting and eating at the same time, Jay was shocking thugs who tried to run off with stolen goods, Nya was drowning a few people before Zane had to ruin her 'fun', Zane was freezing people in ice while Kai fried them. The thugs all left, and Nya shouted, "After them!" They ran out and didn't find them, so they all turned around to head back inside and assess any damages. Kai picked up a poster that was lying on the floor near a lit candle with a bowl of fortune cookies with a sign. It read, 'Elementals get one for free!'. Kai looked at the poster and gasped in both horror and outrage and lit his hand that was not on the paper, on fire. "What is it, Kai?" Zane asked. Cole took the poster from Kai. "A poster for Master Chen's Tournament of Elements? It says here, 'participate in the Tournament of Elements, and win it all! Use it or lose it! Your main prize will be a certain prophecy ninja in green who you thought was dead! You might not believe this so here is an attached picture'!" Cole read, his eyes widening. We all looked at the photo and gasped. "That's Lloyd!" Jay said. Lloyd was clearly awake and uncomfortable when the photo was taken, one of his green eyes was open and they could see anger blaze in it, his other eye is what made them gasp in horror. His once left green eye was a blood red, but there was a large bruise, burn, they couldn't tell what it was, but it was horrifying to look at. "We need to save him!" Nya shouted. They all nodded. "Lloyd is in danger! He saved us multiple times, it's our turn to repay him for it." Cole said. They all nodded. "Let's get packing and head to the fairy first thing tomorrow!" Nya said and they all left to pack.

Cole and Jay packed everything they owned because they were moving out. Once they brought Lloyd back, they were moving back into the monastery to their old rooms. Once they moved their packed boxes into the monastery, which wasn't that far from their old apartment, they turned in their keys to the desk lady and left. They grabbed a lot of necessary things, put them in their bags and left.

Kai walked into his rented home. He didn't have many things really, so he honestly just had a chair, a fork, a spoon, a knife, and one of everything else really. He packed up and also moved back into the monastery, but just put his stuff in his room and left with hair gel, food, and water. He was leaving his ragged old apartment behind. And when he returned, it would be to the monastery, with Lloyd right behind him.

—

Nya already lived in her old Samurai X cave, so she didn't need to do much. She just grabbed some gadgets and tools, and then grabbed food and water, packed it in her duffle bag and left, locking the base's secret door. She could have sworn that she saw someone watching her, but it was probably her just being paranoid, considering the whole situation.

—

Zane already lived in the monastery, he had nowhere else to go other than Borg Tower, but he'd rather live where he truly felt at home. Though, he knew if things got tough, he could always go and help out Borg and Pixal.

"So, who do you think is leading the tournament?" Cole asked. "It said Master Chen's Tournament of Elements, so maybe someone named Chen?" Nya guessed. "Wait, you mean, as in Chen's Noodle House?! The guy who makes the most delicious ramen?!" Cole practically shouted out, earning them looks from other elemental masters. "Why do you think they're using Lloyd as leverage?" Kai asked. "Probably because we wouldn't go somewhere for the treasure or the glory." Zane said and they all nodded. He did have a point.

They all boarded the ferry and someone in an orange cloak came by and started staring at Kai. (No Kailor, Kai only sees the tournament as a way to get Lloyd back, so he isn't interested in Skylor). "Back off redhead, I'm only here for my little brother. Whatever you want with me, better not be trouble." Kai snaps. The girl scoffs and leaves. "I guess this will be a rough ride." Nya said. They all nodded. There was a lot in store for them.

I hope you liked Page 2, it wasn't my best, but then again, I couldn't make it long enough. I have to make 3 'pages', you know.
