Cole X Kai

Dungeons

The Destiny's Bounty was decked and the guards promised to fix it as a apology for not mentioning the bat monsters. The ninja looked around in awe at the Ivory City and so were the triplets who Kai pushed along in their three seater pram. "Wow it is awesome," Jay said in awe. "I will admit I did not think it would live up to the legends, but it is even more beautiful than they say," Nya said. "I must say out of all the grand mythical cities I have visited and seen this is the grandees of them all," . They got to the castle that was just as grand as the rest of the beautiful city. On a throne high above the ground was who the ninja assumed was the king of Shintaro King Vangless. He had a light purple diamond in the middle of his forehead like the rest of his people and he wore a royal white and blue robe with black hair and no crown the ninja could see, but the air around him clearly showed him as the king. Hail-mar introduces them to the esteemed king. "King Vangless I introduce to you the honoured guest the ninja of Ninjago," Hail-mar said as they entered and bowed.

"Ninja I am glad you could honor us with your visit. I am King Vangless of this grand city of Shintaro," King Vangless bows in respect. The ninja copy the motion. "The honor is all ours your highness. I must say out of all the cities I have seen Shintaro is easily the grandest that I have set my eyes upon," Sensei Wu said. King Vangless smiles at their manners. "Please I am a mere figure head. The people of Shintaro are the heart of this fair and grand city," Vangless spoke with passion putting his hands on his chest for emphasis. A new excited voice joins in and everyone's heads turn to the source of it. They see a girl about their age in robes similar to the king that had flowers embroidered on the bottom and a pale blue belt around her waist, with gold hair braided around her head like a crown, white skin like the rest of her people, gold wings on her back, and the expression that can only be described as child like excitement. "They are here they are here!" She says in joy landing with two guards behind her taking her golden wings off. "And please meet my daughter the royal princess Vania," Vangless said as his daughter came up to the ninja in excitement. "I am such a huge fan. I have read all about your adventures," She said walking down the line of them. "It was my idea to invite you all here to Shin-taro for my birthday celebration," Vania said proudly pointing to herself looking at them all as she spoke. She looks at the triplets and squeals in delight quickly moving to get a closer look at them.

"Awww they are soooooo cute! Which one is which?" Vania asks in total awe as when you usually see a adorable baby times three. "Well that is Lilly, Onyx, and Oscar," Cole points to each as they are introduced. Vania waves at them and giggles at the slightest movement they make. "It is a honour for us to all be here princess. If you like you can hold one of them," Cole said getting a questioning look from Kai. They never let just anyone hold their babies especially random over eager fan girl princesses from mythical kingdoms. Vania does not notice this look though instead looking excited. "Really? That would be a honour to hold one of them. I have held babies before so no need to worry about me dropping them," Vania jokes with the last part. Cole continues to smile and looked at Kai who dropped the look only because he did not want to look rude since he is a guest. "Which one of you want to be held by the pretty princess?" Cole asks in his baby voice. Oscar and Onyx were fairly uninterested, but Lilly was looking at the girl in her version of baby awe and reaching her meaty hands out to touch her. Cole unbuckled Lilly from the pram and hefted her out and handed her to princess Vania who gracefully took the baby girl who smiles and plays with a few loose strands of her golden hair.

"Aww well aren't you a pretty princess?" Vania coos to the child rocking her back and forth while Kai grits his teeth feeling very over protective. "So is it true you have been to Herisho's labyrinth?" Vania asks still holding Lilly. "Affirmative," Zane confirms with a smiles and a nod of his head. "And competed in the tournament of elements?" She continues. "Ha ha yeah that was quite the story," Jay chuckles remembering it. "And that Kai spent forty years in a block of ice?" Vania asks and Kai darkly chuckles at the memory. "Fifty actually, but hey who was counting? Not me," Kai darkly said his tone over looked. "We have quite the stories to share," Lloyd said. "I want to hear them all," Vania said with a small excited squeal making Lilly baby laugh. "Where should I start?" Cole asks reaching his hand out with a kind smile. Before Vania took it the king interjected. "You can start by following me. It will be a busy day for all of us tomorrow and we must get our sleep. And rest assured we have very capable nanny services and guards for your children if they need to retire for their sleep schedule. I too know how important it is for a infant to have the proper amount of sleep," Vangless said with a warm knowing smile. The ninja followed ahead and Vania quickly walked too the front where Cole was with Lilly still in her arms playing with her golden hair, but she did not mind.
