The Destiny of the Pink Ninja

Chapter 39: Old Friends...

Jay's P.O.V.

We were on the living room and we once we discovered Paty was from Mexico, well we have a million of questions.

— And how's Mexico? —Kai asked.

— Cute, I loved it.

— Do you miss it? —Lloyd asked.

— Barely

— Have you ever been here in Ninjago? I mean before moving definitively —I asked.

By the look of her face, yes and I have brought up something really personal.

— Once, when I was 7, I came here to see Borg. But since he had a cold I had one day to go to the park. That day I... —she blushed.

— What? You what? What happened? —Cole asked.

— I met a boy, the guy was about half year older or less than me...

Flashback Paty's P.O.V.

I was walking in the park, thinking about the poor Cyrus who had a horrible cold. I went to play in the swings, I played there for a while. But when I wanted to go to another game, I tripped and fell to the ground, hurting my knee. Since it hurted horribly, I began crying. When I felt a shadow, I looked up to saw a boy about my age. He had a scar on his eyebrow, ginger hair, and electric blue eyes.

— Are you alright? —he smiled.

—My knee hurts —I said softly.

—Here let me help —he said.

He grab a piece of white cloth, he got it wet and put it on my knee. I smiled, it didn't hurted anymore

— Feeling better? —he asked. I nodded. —Hey want to see a trick? —I nodded again.

He got something out of his pocket, a silver butterfly. It flew until it was meters above us and it explode into a blue little firework.

— Pretty cool huh? —he smiled filled with proud.

I nodded, still fascinated for the sparkles that end up in my hair. We played a every afternoon that week, but the last day until my aunt came for me, but I convinced her to let me stay enough to say goodbye. The boy and I made a pact. But my aunt dragged me in the car, and due to my resistance, I ended up leaving crying like hell, the last thing I remember of him was that he was standing there at the verge of tears.

End of the Flashback

All of this sounds terribly familiar. Paty was blushing and smiling of the memory.

— A pact? —Lloyd asked.

— "With tears, blood, or colds, no matter the distance or time. We'll always be friends" —she said and I muttered along.

— Something else? —Nya asked with dreamy smile.

— He gave me a bracelet —Paty blushed more.

— You still have it? —I asked.

It can't be her, can it? The first girl I fall in love for... But the girl I met had a pale skin tone, and dark blue eyes. Paty have a lightly tanned skin and light green eyes. I still remember when we played, in just one week, to be a princess and knights, superheroes, aliens, or just run around.

— Actually... —she left for a few seconds.

She came back with something in her clenched fist.
