Finding the Truth

Chapter.14

Cole POV:

It was the next day, the same weather as yesterday, and while the others were off working around the ship Me, Lloyd, and Kai were sitting below deck eating sandwiches and talking about recent events.

"You think we'll really find Jay's real Mom?" Lloyd asks before taking another bite of his sandwich.

Kai hums "I honestly hope so. Imagine how heartbreaking it'll be for him if we don't."

I nod in agreement while getting lost in my own thoughts.
Jay's my best friend, and we have always been there for each other. I care about him and dont wanna see him hurt. But I've got this bad feeling something will go wrong and it keeps festering.

"If we don't find her then...all we can do is do our best to be there for him." I say while getting up and walking out of the room to the kitchen and getting my stress eating cake out of the fridge.

Let's hope everything will be ok.

Nya POV:

I put the ship on auto pilot so I can relax a bit. It is a long journey to 'Cascada' and I hope  who we're looking for is actually there.

I walk down the steps to see Jay leaning over the railing looking of into nothingness. I take a moment to admire him from this distance and in this moment. His bright blue eyes, wavey amburn hair, endless amount of freckles, and small barely visible smile. Hes content, but troubled deep inside. He looks relaxed but I know he's freaking out. I can see right through him.

I make my way over and wrap an arm around his waist. He jumps a bit before looking over and seeing it's only me and relaxing.

"How you feeling?" I ask.

Jay takes a moment to respond, probably trying to r huh ink of a lie to cover up his true feeling. Yet, he knows I know when hes lying and gives in.

"I'm just so nervous. I mean what if shes not even there, what if she doesnt wanna see me? I know what the letter says, but her feelings could have changed over all these years. I just-...I just don't want to get there and- and find out that this long journey and all these feelings were for nothing. Only to be disappointed and hurt." He rambles on, getting out my hold while pacing on the deck. You could practically see the wheels turning in his brain.

I step towards him and take his hands in mine to stop him from continuing "You always say to think positive. Keep a smile on your face. And in these situations all you can really do is hope." I start "We dont know what's put there and we don't know what will find but you know that no matter what you have me and the team right behind you the entire time. We're not going anywhere. No matter where we're going all you can do is keep a smile on your face and hope everything will be ok."

Jay looks down at me with a smile, I know I got through to him. He takes a deep breath and pulls me into a hug, burying his face in my shoulder while I hug him back.

"Thankd Nya." He says, but its muffled by my shoulder.

I smile and rub his back "Anytime."

The moment was amazing but soon cut of by the bounty slowing down.

Looking over the side we see a village in the distance, I walk back to monitors and see that we made it.

"We're here!"

Nadakans POV:

I poofed everywhere in Ninjago and eventually ended up at my desired destination. Cascada.

It was a small town with old looking houses and a good amount of people. It looked peaceful and honestly it disgusted me that these people were so happy.

I'm not gonna ask for directions, but I will search till I find someone with the last name Gordon. Libby Gordon. That's what the letter says and I dont want anyone getting in my way of finding the desired prize. Jay will pay and I'll get my revenge when I kill his mother infront of him.

He won't know what hit him. The lights going out of his eyes and the smile dropping from his face, I can only dream of such an amusing and satisfying sight.

I walked down the many dirt roads, unknown people were looking at me but I was to set on the task at hand to care much. Walking past the mailboxes of the houses I spot one that says Libber. It's not the women I'm looking fo last name but it is her name. It's a start and if it is the women in the pictures I saw through Jay's eyes then my plan will be set into motion.

The house was small and held many different shades of disgusting blue. I knocked on the door, and could hear a faint 'coming' from the other side. Whe t he door swung open it was a blonde haired women that had blue and freckles. I found her.

"Excuse me but can I help you?" She asked and I can clearly see the fear and hesitation in her eyes.

This will be fun.

I smile evily and pounce.
I knocked her unconscious and smiled down at my prize.
But before leaving I grabbed a paper and pen? I think that's what it's called from inside the house and left a note for my burden.

'Hello Jay.

You must be wondering where you sweet mother is and I have the answers. I'm an old foe you defeated a couple years ago and I have returned to take my revenge. Scrap and Tap ring any bells?

I've taken your mother away to a cliff in  Ignacia where I plan to slowly kill her. I want you to go there so I can witness your reaction when shes gone.

Theres no way to save her and her fate will alrady be sealed by noon tomorrow.
I'm gonna enjoy destroying your last real family member after you destroyed me.
I'll be waiting.'

After writing it down and leaving it on the door step I pick up the women and poof to a cliff side where I will wait.

'Till I can exact my revenge.'

(#1065)

Another chapter out for y'all after 2 months and I'm so sorry that I couldn't get one out sooner but I can never be sure when I will get a new one out now because of school.

All the assignments, and work is piling up and becoming difficult to manage while also managing my stories, but the show must go on and it will. Just not in an orderly fashion.

Anyways.

POSITIVE

Adios!
