The Truth

Chapter 1

It had been a whole month since it happened. He occasionally still felt guilt but it quickly went away upon realizing that he rescued Scott. The conversation with he had with Unagami still stuck to him. Bringing up that he had been abandoned by his parents helped Unagami make up with Dyer. It made him wonder about his biological parents.

Suddenly Jay's thoughts were interrupted by a football hitting him dead center in the nose.

"Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry Jay I thought that you were paying attention" said Lloyd apologetically.

Jay sat up but felt red blood drip onto his hand. "It's okay lloyd. I'm gonna go clean up. You keep playing".

The rest of the ninja had gathered around to make sure jay was okay. He waived them off and then went to the public bathroom.

When he saw his reflection, there was blood pouring out of his nose and no amount of pressure was doing anything to stop it. He sighed and went out to tell his friends he'd have to go back to the monastery.

"Guys! I think I'm gonna head home. My nose won't stop bleeding" said Jay as he pinched it shut.

"Aww. That's too bad. Now you're gonna miss me beat Kai" smirked Cole.

"If anyone here is going to be beat it you Cole" said Kai as he stuck out his tongue.

They playfully punched each other before Zane asked worriedly "would you like me to take you for an x-ray? It may be broken".

"Nah. It's not broken. It just takes forever for it to stop bleeding. I've had enough inventions blow up in my face to know. I'm gonna head back and get some rest. See you guys later. Also...Cole, Kai....you do know that Nya could beat you with one hand tied behind her back" smiled Jay.

"Now now, we don't want to upset the children" laughed Nya as she gave jay a kiss goodbye.

He started the long walk home wishing that he could still form a dragon. By the time he got home, his nose had already stopped bleeding which didn't stop misako from freaking out any less.

"Jay?!? What happened. Are you okay? Let me get you some water" yelled misako.

Jay just chuckled and let her help him. We walked in but he never could stand blood so after making sure he was okay, he quickly left.

By the time he was all cleaned up and showered the others including skylor and Pixel came home.

"Oh man! That was the best game ever. Did you see my touchdown?" Yelled Kai.

"Yes Kai for the hundredth time. Now I'd appreciate it if you didn't make me go deaf" said skylor.

He rolled his eyes and they all headed to the dining room for dinner.

"Wasn't is supposed to be my night to cook?" asked Cole.

"It was but don't worry. We'll figure something out" said Lloyd excitedly. 

Before they could debate on who was going to cook, jay walked in with several boxes of pizza.

"Heard it was cole's night to cook so thought I'd save our stomachs" smirked Jay.

They all gleefully sat down and devoured it.

"How's your nose? Nothing too bad I hope" said Lloyd as he stuffed pizza in his mouth.

"I'm totally fine" laughed jay.

They spent the next hour eating with an occasional eating contest between Zane and skylor with Zane being the winner.

"Man. That was great thanks jay! We don't we all go watch a movie? I'm feeling jumanji" said Kai.

"Ugh. We just escaped from a video game and now you want to watch a movie about it?" asked jay exasperated.
