Amnesia

Jay's POV

"Jay! Behind you!" a voice cried to me. I turn around to see Nya, her arms flailing and features filled with worry. What's going on?

I'm too stupid to turn around and see the flying giant piece of road hurling towards and hitting me fully on impact.

I slump to the ground, my body feeling weak and numb. I'm starting to feel unconscious; my vision tunneling in in me.

And then everything goes black.

Beep...beep...beep

I wake up, gasping and panting as if my life depended on it. I look around to check my surroundings, wondering what the heck happened to me, running a hand through my tousled hair. I'm in a hospital, an infirmary to be exact. There is a heart monitor right next to me, the numbers increasing and decreasing by the second.

What happened to me? Why am I here? What's going on?

"Ah, Mr. Walker, you're finally awake," an unfamiliar, professional voice says. I whip around to find the doctor standing before me. She's a middle-aged woman with old-fashioned looking spectacles hanging on the bridge of her nose.

"I'm sorry, miss, but who is this Mr. Walker you're talking about?" I ask confusingly. I don't know her. Or where I am. Or who I am. She looks at me with pure pity, like something tragic happened. I look up at her again and ask a simple question. "Who am I?"

"Your name is Jay Walker," she replies, "son of Ed and Edna Walker, the owners of the junkyard near the city. That is not your only identity." I look at her confusingly. What does she mean by that?

"That means, Mr. Walker, that you are also known as something else," she continues. Whoops. I said that out loud. "You are also known as Jay, the ninja of lightning. You have helped in the defeating of the Great Devourer and in the defeatings of the Overlord. You are quite well-known across Ninjago, I may add. Everyone panicked when they saw you get hit. Your family was worried."

"My...family?" I ask curiously, "I got hit? By what?"

"There was another attack to the city; you and the others were trying to help out. Apparently, the young lady that brought you in here along with the other ninja claimed that you got hit by a giant piece of flying road thrown."

"How come I don't remember anything?" I ask.

She sighs, "You are suffering from a severe case of amnesia, causing you to forget everything and anything. You took quite a hit there. It caused your brain to become damaged in the area that involves memory, but you can still walk, talk, and function like a normal human being."

"Will I ever get my memory back?" I ask.

"The statistics and brain scan show that you might be able to get your memory back. I'm guessing if your friends can jog your memory enough, you could get it back," she informs. I nod my head at her, gesturing I understand. She turns around and walks towards the door.

I peer behind the blinds of my hospital room, finding a bunch of people out the door waiting to see me. From the angle I can see from, I spot four other boys around the same age as me, five elderly people, three men and two women, some sort of humanoid robot, and...the prettiest girl I have ever seen in my life.

She must be the girl that brought me in here.

I feel my cheeks heating up. Now I'm embarrassed. A girl brought me into the hospital; it should have been the other way around. But hey, girl power...right? I look away before I can start drooling. Man, she's beautiful.

Her long, black hair cascades down a bit past her chin, framing her face perfectly, her chocolate-brown eyes full of concern. She has a petite, curvaceous, figure with just the right amount muscle, making my eyes about to pop out of my head. A ruby-colored dress draped around her, almost down to the floor. And the most intriguing thing- her plump, red, kissable lips that I wanted to capture with my own. I really hope she's my girlfriend.

"...I wouldn't try to alert him in anyway," I hear the doctor murmur, "He's still quite in an emotional and unstable state."

A man and a woman rush in first, both wearing soiled jumpers with oil stains and safety goggles hanging from their necks. They both stare at me for a moment, whispering amongst themselves before the woman is the first to speak.

"Jay...Oh, my baby, you didn't deserve this at all. If there's anything you need, and I mean anything, come to Mom, alright?" she consoles, probably trying to comfort herself since she's hugging me and kissing my forehead. My mother. I have failed them as a son.

But still, I have this urge to tell her to get off me and yell 'Mom!'. I look to the man who is supposedly my father, sorrow in his eyes, and I pull him into the hug too.

We sit there, hugging each other and not saying a word, as if the silence was comfort for us enough. I sigh. Things were not supposed to turn out this way. I wish I could remember them, I really do...but I can't.

"Well, son, I guess we'll leave you to your friends now," my father says, tears welling in his eyes, "Come and visit us."

"I will," I mumble, my mother kissing my cheek before leaving. If only I knew where you lived. Where I lived in the past.

They walk towards the door, my mother bursting into tears after they exit. I look to the window again, seeing my father put his arm around her, leading her out of the hallway. I really hate this.

-X-

"You may go in now," the doctor says to the four guys. The red one with brown, spiky hair rushes in first, pushing his way through the others, running into my room.

"Oh my gosh, Jay, buddy, are you alright?" he asks, his words rushed.

"I think I'm fine-" I start before the others chime in as well. This is really odd.

"Do you feel alright?"

"Do you need anything? "

"Is there anything else wrong with you?"

"Lloyd!" the red one exclaims loudly, "Don't say that!" I look to the blonde one in green. So he's Lloyd. Alright, I'll remember that.

"It's not my fault I care, Kai!" he shoots back, making the one known as 'Kai' glare at him intensely, making me nervous. They continue to bicker as I start to get less interested by the second.

I look to the one in black with the matching hair. He looks at me with great sorrow and concern. What's wrong? What happened? He looks as if he's done something terrible to me and I have not forgiven him, or he just takes great pity on me, which I hate, or both. His emerald eyes seem to almost bare into my soul.

Okay, so Lloyd, Kai...uh...

"I'm sorry, but could you please introduce yourselves. I'm kind of lost right now," I say curiously. The red one clears his throat before speaking.

"Jay, I'm Kai, one of your best friends and teammates. The one in green is Lloyd, the green ninja who has the power of all four of us combined; the one in white is Zane, ninja of ice and a great cook, and the one in black is Cole, the ninja of earth," Kai informs. I raised a brow when he hesitated, as if he wanted to say something else about Cole. Did I like him? Or did I not?

Cole. He looked down at the floor at the mention of his name. What did he or I do?

"Cole?" I call, his head snaps back up.

"Yes, Jay?" he asks.

"Are you alright?" I ask. He nods his head repeatedly before speaking.

"Yes, Jay, I'm fine. I wish the same for you," he replies, giving me a genuine smile. He doesn't seem bad at all.

"Your time is up," the doctor informs, peeking her head through the doorway.

"See you later, Jay," they say in unison.

If only I could remember.

Author's Note: Sup! Yeah, so uh, I got the idea for this when my relatives came over for the fourth of July and everything. I remember my aunt just loves these kind of movies and everything, and I've watched a couple.

I plan for this to be a short story...or not, depending on how I feel. I mean, really, here I am, it's almost midnight for me, and I'm still typing away. Surprisingly, I finished this chapter pretty fast. I was planning to have Nya be the one with amnesia, but screw it! I've never done anything with Jay yet as the main character. I hoped I've portrayed him well enough. Plus, Nya's been getting kinda obnoxious lately. I mean, seriously? Who takes two boys on a date at the same time to a movie theater? Just choose Jay already! (Sorry, Cole x Nya fans)

So what? Did you like it? Hate it? I would appreciate it if you leave a review. Bye for now!
