Lightning flashed as it surrounded Jay, as if it was trying to send him a message of leaving Ninjago forever. Nya and Zane were beside him, laughing as if he was not even there.

"You are a disappointment to this family!!!" Ed screamed.

"I don't even know why we thought having you was a good kind of idea. You create a mess everywhere you go!" Edna yelled.

"Mom, Dad..." Jay tried calling out to them, but they wouldn't listen.

Jay was thrashing in his sleep. The nightmare that seemed so real continued on for what seemed to be forever for Walker. It was when the lightning danced outside and the thunder banged on the Earth as if it was commencing the sounds of war when Jay actually woke up.

Out of breath, Jay stumbled out of bed. The first week of school was bad. Everyone was asking why it was he was kicked out of several schools, and the sad thing was that Jay could never answer that.

He promised them that he wouldn't say anything about what happened. He wouldn't talk about his knack of intelligence or how he could never have friends because he was a disappointment to everyone. That was just his secrets that he wouldn't mind keeping to himself.

It was when Jay was eating in his room that he heard his parents calling for him.

"Jay, Dear, there are some people from school that would like to see you." My Mother called in her usual sweet tone.

Sighing, Jay came out of his room. He put his bowl in the sink and hand washed it. Then, he combed his hair into the best that it could with the knots that it formed, and then walked towards the door.

"I'm here, Ma." I told her as she was talking to the people outside the door.

"Ok, Jay dear. I am going to help your Dad with his electrical project for Mr.Borg." Edna said as she started walking away.

"Don't touch any wire's Mom! We don't need another incident like what happened last Thursday." I called after her.

"You worry about me with technology too much. If you and Dad can build, so can Mama!" Edna yelled before officially disappearing into the trailer.

I sighed before turning my attention to the people at the door. I saw Nya and Zane. Along with them were a kid with black hair, a kid with a weird looking porcupine hair style, and a kid with blond hair and emerald green eyes.

"Can I help you?" I asked Nya and Zane.

"Why don't you come hang out with us. We could show you around, and maybe we could all get to know each other a bit..." Zane suggested.

I looked back to the trailer and then back to them. I shouldn't get close to these people in case we have to move again, but I want to get to know them better as I am sure that they want to understand me.

"I guess we can go out for a bit." I told them as I stepped outside to join them.

"We don't like walking in the storms that we get, so we will be driving in my brother's car." Nya said as she pointed to the kid with the porcupine head.

"I never minded the storms. They are places where I can be myself." I mumbled as I followed them into the red sports car.
