Lloyd POV

As the doorbell gonged, the five of us cried, "MAIL!" and ran up the the hefty red doors of the rebuilt monastery. Cole pulled it opened and we stared in anticipation at the mailman. He seemed reluctant, but rifled through his bag, grumbling about stairs and ninjas attracting trouble. I have no idea what he was talking about.

"Alrighty, Cole's got a letter from his father, Jay has a package from his parents, Zane has a letter from his father, Kai has a fan letter and . . . a letter for Mr. and Mrs. Garmadon," the mailman recited, handing out the packages and letters.

"I'll take my parents' letter," I offered, taking it. It was very official looking, with a seal and all that jazz. I looked around at the others; Zane's joyful smile, Kai's boastful smirk, Cole's disappointed sigh and Jay's groan, as he pulled a knitted blue sweater from his package.

I carefully opened the seal on my parents' letter. Yeah, yeah, I know it's wrong, but my parents never ever got mail like this. I unfolded the crisp paper and . . .

After reading the letter twice to make sure, I dropped it. "What's wrong, Lloyd?" Jay asked, now wearing the sweater from his parents. "You look sick." I wordlessly picked up the letter and handed it the him. His eyes widened as they flickered across the page.

Soon the others had crowded around, all with aghast looks on their faces. I reread the letter, just to be sure.

Dear Garmadon and Misako,

Silver Garmadon was kidnapped many years ago, as you very well know. We've found her last known location. The sea of sand. I suggest you find her tout suite. She's your daughter, after all.

Sincerely, Miss Francine, Orphanage Mistress.

I had to tell my parents.

Garmadon POV

Lloyd burst into Misako's study, a letter in his hand. "I have a sister?!" I glanced at my wife. She snatched the letter from him and read it quickly over. I read it too. Silver had been found?!

"Lloyd, we've got some explaining to do," Misako admitted, as the rest of the ninja filed in the room. "Silver was our first child. When she was very young, we sent her away, for protection. When I was pregnant with you, we received a letter, telling us she'd been kidnapped. Soon after, your father turned evil and you were born, so we had given up hope. But if this letter is real, you'll be getting a sister."

All the ninja looked surprised. I picked up a photo and gazed at it longingly. It showed a young couple, holding a baby. The man with dark brown hair and purple eyes was me. The woman with light brown hair and green eyes was Misako. The baby with jet black hair and deep purple eyes was Silver. Our beautiful baby girl.

I handed it to Lloyd silently. "That's my sister, huh?" He asked quietly, handing it off for the others to see. I nodded trying not to cry. I wouldn't cry.

"My parents live in the sea of sand. We could ask them if they'd seen her," Jay suggested. "It's not much, but we don't have much to go on either."

"Thank you Jay," Misako whispered, looking at me. I'm sure she could tell I was holding back tears. The ninja, who could tell we needed alone time, left. "Hey Tough Guy. It's okay to cry," my wife told me, pulling me into a hug. I silently cried for a few moments. We were going to find Silver, whether or not she wanted to be found.

Nya POV

At first, I was confused. Mostly because everybody tried explaining all at once. But then, after Garmadon came in and yelled at them to shut up, I learned about Silver and why we needed to take the Destiny's Bounty. Starting up the Bounty, I set course for the sea of sand.

"H-hey Nya," Jay greeted nervously. I rolled my eyes. I loved Jay, but he really needed to stop being nervous around me.

"Hi Jay," I replied, planting a kiss on his cheek, making him blush. "How are you?"

"Fine, I'm a little worried that we won't find Silver or worse . . ." he admitted. "I mean, it was hard for Lloyd growing up alone, then having to fight his father. It's worse that he might have a long lost sister, who probably has no idea who he is. He must be stressed. I just wanna help the kid."

"I understand," I sympathized, then glanced back at the GPS. "We're nearing your parents house now. Why don't you go tell-" I was cut off by the engine spluttering and the ship doing a sudden nosedive. "BRACE FOR IMPACT!" I screeched, grabbing hold of my boyfriend.

There was a giant crash and everything went black.


GUESS WHO?! It's Mariah and I'm back with my new story! This one stars- well, you'll have to wait and see ;)

Oh, yeah. Moon told ya that I'm learning to drive, right? Well, I GOT MY L! Yay! I can drive with someone 25 or older (who's not drunk and knows how to drive themselves)(AKA my aunt/uncle)(AKA Moon's parents) between 5 am and midnight. And I can only have myself and that adult, so I can't drive Moon or Gracie around.

Okay, Mar is out. Except I'm posting the second chapter immediately after this. :D
