Okay, so this is a little bonus chapter. A guest reviewed a suggestion and I though why not? It's fairly short, though. Anyways, I thought I'd give it a shot. The ending comes a bit erupt but if I continued it then the story would have ended up being over 2,000 more words longer.

So, I thought I'd just let your imagination see how they end it - you'll understand that when you get to the end. I really hoped I wrote out what you were looking for! I'll stop taking now - go read the story!

"I'd love it if you did a one-shot where Nya has a nightmare and Kai comforts her! I'm really missing their sibling moments! Maybe it could be set after Hands Of Time and the dream is about Nya losing Kai because her parents are back and she's scared Kai will stop protecting her or something like that? I'd love it if you could do that! You seem the perfect writer for it! Xxx"

Nya Smith was ecstatic when she realized her parents were not dead. She was jumping with joy when Kai - her hotheaded brother - finally picked up his head and was out of the dumps. He was always bringing up how their parents were terrible, leaving their kids alone at such a young and vulnerable age. Yet, he didn't know the reasoning behind it. Nobody did. And now they have the answer and he was all over there long lost parents.

But then he seem to grow...distant from Nya. Yeah, he was most likely just making up for lost time. Deep in her bones she knew that Kai would come back to her - that he would save her if need be - even if she could take care of herself. He always did. It was just who he was. And now Nya's got friends - gosh she's even got a boyfriend! She isn't alone.

But it really isn't the same as her older brother.

I guess you could say she got...jealous. Kai was spending all of his off-ninja time with their parents. And, well, and Nya had things to do. She couldn't just drop everything to go visit - she had to spend time with Jay and help Lloyd feel like himself again. Nya also had to fix the microwave one time, too, because someone thought it was a good idea to put metal in there.

She was a busy girl and when she slept the idea of losing her brother followed her. She just knew that Kai wouldn't do that to her, but he always seems so real and her nightmares.

Almost every night in her dream she was lost. Nya was lost and she was losing her brother. She hated losing. It was not how she lived. But in the dream, no matter which way she ran, there was always a daring cliff in front of her wide, terrified eyes. Even if she look behind her at the dark green nature engulfing her and ran somewhere else, it always lead to the same place. The sky was always dark and the mood was naturally killed. And every time she looked off the cliff in curiosity she felt the comforting hands of her brother on her back.

Yet, before she knew it, the wind picked up and her hair flip this way in that; her feet came out from under her; and gravity took its way. In other words, she was falling. And she was pushed.

Nya always managed to see her brother's classical smirk right before she was about to hit the ground. Although she never did; instead, she was promptly woken up by fear itself. Her forhead would be drenched in sweat and her breath was always upbeat. Yet, even if betrayal was what Kai did in Nya's dreams, he was still good ol' vanilla Kai in the real world. This made her feel somewhat better, knowing that he wouldn't try to stab her with a butter knife during breakfast.

A couple nights, Nya was ripped out of her dreams by none other than Kai himself. He would rub her arm and tell her everything is okay, that it was just a bad dream. Then, Nya presumed, he tells the other in the morning.

Of course she notices the way Jay looks at her now. He has never been good with when and when not to or how to express his feelings. It showed so clearly that he was debating whether not to ask Nya about what happened. Kai ever did, so the only person who knew about the cliff was Nya her self. And it wasn't like she could go ask Master Wu about what to do, considering he's gone.

Nya just doesn't want to feel weak. She doesn't want to feel like, well, a girl. She know she strong, and so do the others. But if they found out that some little nightmare she knew was fake was eating her up, then what would they think?

That didn't matter as much is how the nightmares were affecting her. A few nights ago, she started to believe that the nightmare couldn't get to her if she didn't sleep. So, of course, instead of catching some Z's, Nya would work on something to keep her mind busy. She went out for midnight walks and even tried baking cookies in the early morning. She was high on coffee and sugar. Her vision was always full of fluorescent lights to keep her awake. Nya denied the need to lay or lean on anything, yawn, or blink for more than two seconds. And it took a toll on her. She's quite a stubborn one - and she thought no sleep is better than watching her brother push her off a cliff to her death.

Everyone noticed. Everyone stared during breakfast and they clearly were taking it easy on her during training.

Nya had just headed to her room after dinner. It has been three sleepless nights. She tossed herself on her bed and rubbed her face. She just needed to clear her mind and not think about Kai. She needed to be alone and try to get some time with her parents. She really just wanted silence and some sleep-

"Nya?"

Now her own brother was knocking at her door.

"Nya?" he repeated. "Can I come in?"

Nya rubbed her eyes and replied with a small yes.

Her bedroom door creaked open and in walked in a red gi. Kai softly sat down on her bed. He let the silence drag on a bit too long. Nya though it was because he didn't know what to say or do.

So she broke it. "If you wanted to know how I'm doing, I'm fine."

"Oh, come on, Nya, we all see the bags under your eyes," Kai started. "You need to tell me what's eating at you."

"Nothing."

"I'm worried about you, all of us are. You've been closed off and I know you're not sleeping."

She sat up and confusion took over. "How do you-"

"I'm a ninja, I know everything," Kai insisted, smirking. "And for the record, you aren't very quiet."

"Well then you should know why I'm not sleeping, and why I've been ignoring you and why I've been trying not to seem so weak-" Nya was cut off. She choked on her tears. They came fast but they were expected. She's had so much inside for so long.

"And now you're spending all your time with Mom and Dad and I'm stuck on the Bounty. So, I've just been thinking that you moved on-" Nya sniffled. She wiped her nose on her sleeve wearily as Kai moved closer and wrapped an arm around her. "-and that I was alone; that you wouldn't be there for me. And, Kai, I'm scared to go to sleep because it haunts me-"

"Shh," her brother said and she complied. Kai rubbed his sister's hair and eventually her tears turned into sniffled. "Your okay, Nya, I would never leave you." Kai leaned his chin on her head and continued to soothe her. "I love you more than ever. And you're one of the strongest human beings I've ever seen."

He paused and turned to look into his sister's eyes. "The others are watching a movie. Lloyd picked it so it's probably some boring Fritz Donegan film, but do you want to come watch it with us? Then tomorrow morning we'll leave and go visit Mom and Dad, okay?"

Nya nodded and silently brushed away the tears. Together, they walked into the main room where the rest of the ninja were squeezed onto the couch. No body questioned what had happened; Jay hit play on the remote. Only Nya had no idea what happened in the movie because the moment it started, she was out like a light.

Quietly, Kai stood up. He smiled and placed his hands on his hips. "Thanks for picking such a boring, Lloyd - the plan worked perfectly." He reached down to pick up his sister. "Oh, and whatever plans we have for tomorrow, me and Nya are out."

"But we have training tomorrow?" Cole asked.

"Will you be back in time for dinner?" questioned Zane.

Kai shrugged, scooping Nya into his arms. "Maybe?"

"I will go all out anyways," Zane concluded.

"Aw yeah!" Jay pipped up. "Dinner's gonna be great. Now c'mon Lloyd, play the movie!"

"I actually think we should just go to sleep," said Cole. He stood up and turned off the tv.

Kai didn't bother hearing the small agurment that continued as he placed Nya in her bed and tucked her in. He placed a small kiss on her forehead before standing by the door and softly closing it. By the look on her face, she wasn't having a nightmare. And that made Kai sleep better as well.

Nya woke up in the morning feeling refreshed. She slept peacefully and started the day with a warm shower. Her and Kai had breakfast before leaving and heading to their childhood home for the afternoon.

And it was worth the wait.
