Tiny Troubles

Part 12

....I'm updating on a Monday. WHAT'S GOING ON?!?!? XD

But seriously. I just had a really big test Friday, a really big test today, and two more during this week. But hey, I survived the first two so I DESERVE TO CELEBRATE!!! So, you guys get an update of Tiny Troubles. :D

Also, quick warning for this chapter: there is a scene in which I kinda poke fun at the stereotypical  fangirl. In no way do I actually think that fangirls act or talk like how I have written them talking and acting. I don't want to offend anyone, this is just me poking some fun(because let's be honest, we've all acted like these fangirls at some point)

Previously on Tiny Troubles... 

The little ninja still didn't reply and he was nowhere to be seen. Now severely worried, the red ninja spun to face Lloyd. "Where's Cole?!" he demanded.

"I-I don't know!" Lloyd sputtered. "We came straight here from the bathroom!"

"Was he beside you?" Kai asked. "Did you hold his hand?"

"No, why would I--?!" Lloyd blinked as he suddenly remembered what Zane had mentioned earlier. "Aw, son of a--!"

Part 12

Five minutes of trying to weave through a crowd of people was enough time for Cole to come to the conclusion that he was completely lost.

In hindsight, it wasn't completely his fault. If Lloyd had just slowed down and made sure that he didn't get too ahead of the little ninja, then this wouldn't have happened!

And now, he had no idea where he was, no idea where anyone was, and he was stuck in a five-year-old body with a height befitting a five-year-old.

Cole aptly summed up his situation with two simple words.

"This. Sucks."

The little ninja groaned as he wandered aimlessly through the mall, trying his best not to get stepped on by the crowd of people surrounding him. "I hate being a kid," Cole complained for what felt like the hundredth time. "I hate being this short, and I hate having really short legs, and I hate not being able to catch up to everyone else...you know what? Screw it, I just hate my life in general."

Cole let out a sigh. "Okay, Cole, focus. How are you going to find your team and/or let them find you?"

Stay in one place and hope that the others find him? But that might take forever though. Wander around the mall and hope to stumble upon on of them? Slightly better, but the chances of him finding his friends was still kinda slim. Ugh, what was he supposed to do?

Cole groaned again and pouted. "This really, really sucks," he complained again. Sighing heavily, the little ninja looked around and tried to see where exactly he was. Let's see...there's a coffee store there...a pretzel stand over there...oh, there's a sign saying the food court is to the right...wait a minute, didn't Kai tell Zane that we were going to meet up with him and Jay there?

Cole grinned and started walking in the direction of the food court. His teammates might not be there now, but they would be there eventually. He could wait.

...and then he'll get revenge on Lloyd for making him get lost.

Jay was going to die.

Admittedly, he was very disappointed with this realization. He would have preferred living to an old age(with Nya by his side, of course) or dying heroically in battle.
