Chapter 36: An Invitation

(Y/N) would never admit this in her life but Kai had the right idea with the whole underground fighter thing.

Kai finally walked into Mr Chen's Noodle House. Lloyd waved at him.

"Kai! Over here!" he called out. I watched as the other consumers ate at their meals. Cole was basically dying to eat.

"Jay? Cole?" Kai asked. "Ha, you too?" Cole asked. "The runt tricked you both." Jay snorted he wished he hadn't come.

"(Y/N)?" Kai asked looking around. "Smart enough not to show up." Jay pointed out and Lloyd sighed.

"We talk first, then eat." Lloyd instructed as Kai went to grab a piece of sushi off of the buffet bar.

"Ugh, trust me, Do you know what kind of restraint I've had to have, staring at all this noodle goodness? You're late!" Cole pouted looking to the hothead.

"Make it quick." Kai responded. Lloyd explained how he knew it was hard not having Zane around anymore. Since his death, the boys had been separated for what felt like years.

They continued to listen to Lloyd until he said something that made them want to slap him.

"Maybe we should...add someone new to our team?" he suggested.

"A new ninja?" Kai asked brows furrowed. Jay shot out of his seat. "Are you crazy?" he exclaimed. "Come on! Zane's irreplaceable!"

Lloyd tried to handle the matter calmly. "I care about him too, but now it's time to care about this team." he replied.

"Maybe, without Zane, there is no team." Kai snared, crossing his arms, looking away.

"We weren't much of a team, to begin with." Jay sighed and Cole bites his tongue things were still tense between them which is the only reason Nya wasn't here with them right now.

Cole watched as someone pinned the cashier against the counter and made the cashier hand over money then went to stuff his face at the buffet bar.
