The sun rose over Ninjago and streamed into the temple on the floating island. The creaks and thuds of the temple household coming to life slowly woke Nya, then a sharp shout made her sit bolt upright.
'COLE!'
Was that Misako? She slid out of bed and peaked her head around her door. Misako was standing at Kai's door, the next on from hers'. Misako was facing down the corridor with her hands on her hips glaring towards a sleepy Cole. He had just emerged from his room having been woken by Misako's call.
'Cole, what is this?' Misako said exasperated, indicating the throwing star in Kai's door.
Nya slid out quietly from her room and started trying to distract Cole from his scolding. Spotting her, Cole tried to not to become distracted fearing he would anger Misako further.
'You can't just use the whole temple for extended target practice'
Nya began to saunter forwards silently emulating Misako telling him off.
'I mean, who is going to fix all these little bits of damage. Me probably'
standing right behind Misako's back, Nya brought her hands to her face feigning surprise and wagged her finger at him as if to say 'you are such a bad boy'
Cole folded his arms and held his face in a serious expression and tried not to look at her.
'Well?' said Misako.
'Well?' mouthed Nya.
'I... I'm sorry Misako, I didn't think, I'll fix it. I promise'
Misako shook her head.
Nya shook her head.
'Can you please be more considerate next time?' she finished and turned to continue down the hall.
Nya moved like liquid and turned her body silently in time with Misako's. Gone unnoticed she continued her cocky journey to Coles door and sidled up to him.
He looked down at her 'Good morning' he said.
'For some, maybe. You've been a very naughty ninja Cole'
'Haven't I. Are you here to teach me a lesson?' He said as dryly as he could.
'Oh I don't think that's necessary' she said 'I wouldn't mind a little kiss though' she added coquettishly.
Cole leant down and kissed her on the cheek.
Nya took a sharp, exaggerated breath in 'You drive me wild Brookstone' she said as she glided off down the hall towards the stairs.
Cole chuckled, shaking his head. He grabbed a hoodie and followed her 'You're in a funny mood this morning' he said.
'Sorry, I don't know what came over me. You just looked so comical, stood there all sleepy and sexy in your track pants... being told off. Hilarious'.
They reached the kitchen where Jay, Lloyd and Zane were having breakfast and deep in conversation about Jays' mystery. On the table sat the box and the disc. Nya sat down as Cole poured some coffee for them both.
Lloyd brought them up to speed 'Misako and Sensei Wu have been researching the properties of Amber and artefacts that use it within their structure. There are not many that exist. The majority are used for healing and for luck in talismans. Never has there been an artefact recorded as having such power as this box but there is someone that could hold some beneficial information for us'
Misako entered. Has anyone heard from Kai? It would be good to have you all here.
'No' said Nya. The others shook their heads also.
