Chapter 6 ~ Backup

Jay's POV:

As we started our vehicles, Pixel spoke from the communicators, "I have updated Harumi's current coordinates. be careful ninja" "We will pix" Lloyd reassured her. "We'd better get going. NINJA...GO!"

Lloyd's POV:

*I don't know why she's doing this. i loved her, i just wished she'd love me back-* my thoughts were interrupted by Kai, " uh... lloyd? You ok?" he asked consernly. i smiled. I'm so lucky to have my team. "yeah I'm fine-" I had a sharp pain across my forehead, *I hated feeling weak! especially in front of my friends. everyone thinks that the green ninja is the strongest of the group and that he can withstand anything. I'm not that* "its- its just some of cuts acting up. I'm ok" I muttered as a fought through the pain to keep my focus.

We arrived at the coordinates shortly. All i saw was destruction and fire. i cursed under my breath. "where is she?" i questioned as i got out. the others did too and kai put on this hood and spoke, " come in Nya? come in Cole? can you here me? it's kai" he said desperately into his communicator. Jay also put an effort though his device, he sighed as he too gave up "something is interfering with signal guys. it's like there's a bubble blocking our communication" he concluded. "thank you mister obvious" Kai smirked sarcastly. I stepped between them in frustration, "quit it you two, we must find harumi and the others before it's too late. i suggest that we hide our vehicles and so stealthy" kai and jay nodded in agreement.

Kai's POV:

I respect lloyd and all but he's plan didn't seem right, *something's botherng him, i can feel it. i hate when i can't talk to nya. i hope they're ok. i hope.... cole's ok.* a loud bang interupted my thoughts. we jumped in surprise and we went to investigate, hidden of course.

We hid behind a dumpster and jay groaned in protest, "lloyd, why couldn't we find a better scented place than a dumpster?" Jay complained. I shut jay's mouth and whispered, "it's only temporarily jay, and be quite" i hissed.

I saw to my horror, Nya and Cole get thrown against a light pole by some powerful force. Zane came soon after. i couldn't bear to see them get beat up like this. Before Lloyd could stop me, I jumped out of my hiding spot and took out my sword to face harumi head on. I saw Lloyd slap his forehead in annoyance, so what? at least i get some action. Harumi crackled menacingly, "you think you can stop me fire ninja?" "yes?" I said as if to convince myself. "I bet Lloyd and the other one isn't far behind?" Harumi smirked, "i came ALONE" I said to drove her off jay and lloyd's scent.

"k-Kai?" Nya coughed. I ran to her and hugged her tightly, "it's ok sis, i'm here" I said to her warmly, "And i have backup, don't worry"

I turned to harumi, my eyes brazing. "you can't get away with this harumi, i will have you locked up in kryptarium in no time" I said brightly. Harumi's eyes went cold- i knew she was scared of me- but she managed to speak but her voice crackled slightly, "seems like i already have Kai. anyways, let's face reality, you against me? ha. I have my army-" a dozen shadowy figures emerged from the ground, as i turned, my shadow was gone! i guess she took mine to her aid-" what about you?" she put on a sad face," you and what army Kai Smith?" I started to sweat. Sure I can defeat some shadowy things, you can do this kai. but i was beginning to lose confidence. but to my relief a warm hand squeezed my shoulder, i looked to see, "Cole?!" I exclaimed. Cole smile made my legs feel like jelly. i could see cole's face go a little pink too. *focus Kai, remember: you just went on a date with skylor and most importantly: Cole's..... Straight* my heart didn't seem to agree. my thoughts were once again shattered by cole's Confident voice, "let's do this" I smiled at him and he looks more pink.

Cole's POV:

Sure I got thrown and hit many times by our generous harumi, but i always get up, for kai. i have to admit, i have feelings for him, i always did. i just gotta find a way to confess to him. what if he rejects me and liked skylor? my heart says painfully. but what if he really likes me back for who i am? who i truly am? Not that strong, powerful master of earth everyone else sees, but that cake loving humorous guy on the inside that nobody cared to see through?

i guess my smiled made kai blush-did he have feelings for me?- "Let's do this" i grin, harumi laughs "ha! you call that an army ninja? two against all this" more shadows emerged. I was almost about to give up but, "we're with you brother" was nya. Zane, Jay and Lloyd were right behind. "we may be only six harumi, but we have defeated the overload himself and many enemies-" lloyd started but was interrupted my harumi, "oh finally, lloyd! you showed up. yeah well, hate to break it to you but i need you and someone else for my plans. the others won't be much use." she snapped her fingers and shadows attacked us.
