I opened my eyes and rubbed my aching head. I was laying on a back killing bed.

"Lloyd??" I whimpered as I sat up. "Lloyd are you there?? Where am I?"

No reply. I groaned as my aching head throbbed in pain. Just then the door opened and Clem walked in.

"Clem! You're here!" I smiled. "Where are we?"

"Hush! Don't think I'm here to save you or anything." She snapped.

"Huh? Clem what's going on?"

"You will be staying in this room till Mr C comes to get you. Which shouldn't be long so don't get comfortable."

"Y-you're working for Mr. C?!"

"Of course. Father and I have not choice."

"Yes you do. You do have a choi-"

"Silence! We were never friends! This all was a trap, and you fell for it!" And just like that, Clem ran out of the room, slamming and locking the door shut. I felt my heart sink down my chest. I curled up into a little ball in the corner of the room and cried.

"Lloyd, w-where are you?" I cried "please save me."

Lloyds pov:

I tossed a baseball up into the air and caught it as it fell back down. I was laying on my bed, trying to figure out just something to lead us to where Jade went.

There was a knock at my door.

"Come in" I sighed as I kept tossing and catching the ball. Kai and Jay walked in.

"Hey dude, we are going to go on another search, we were wondering if you'd like to come." Jay suggested.

"Yeah, we might actually find something this time." Kai seemed to be kind pumped up today.

"Alright. Seems better than just sitting here and tossing a ball to myself." I grinned slightly as I got up from my bed. Jay gave Kai a hive five and then we left to search Ninjago again.

><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

I kicked a pebble down the sidewalk and Jay nungged my arm with his elbow.

"Don't worry, it's just noon already, we still got the rest of the day to find him." Jay reassured me. I gave him a weak smile in return.

"Hey Jay?"

"Yeah huh?"

"...what do you think Jade is doing right now?"

"I have no clue. Probably studying the stars or drawing."

"Hehe..."

"Hey Jade where are you??" I whisper shouted, as I crept down the hall. My brother wasnt in his room when I went to go get a glass of water. Everyone was spund asleep in their rooms, but i still tipy toed down the hallway.

I saw the lader was pulled down from the ceiling, that lead up to the attic. I climbed up and used my energy to light up the attic.

Jade jolted up and spun around when the lantarns lit up.

"Jaddie, whatcha doin?? Its 12:03 am."

"Oh um well...I was looking outside....."

"...tell the entire story Jade."

"I was gonna sneak out onto the roof and look at the constalations."

I smiled and picked up Jade. Keeping ahold of him, I crawled out one of the windows in the attic. We sat down on the shingles and starred up at the glistening, purple sky. The soft white milky way strectched across the night sky. The moon creating a silver light that made Jade and I shine.

"Up there is the big dipper." Jade ppinted out to me.

"Over there is the little dipper." I showed to Jade.

"The big dipper is like you, and im like the little dipper!" Jades smile was brighter than the stars and moonlight.

*end of flashback*

I smiled imagining Jades childish, sweet smile. Ive decided to listen to my team and try to think positive. Its what Jade would have wanted from me anyways. I will find you, Jade.

><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

"No luck?" Cole looked at me as i walked into the control room on the bounty.

"Actually, I found this outside a candy store near an alley way." I mentioned as I held up Jades old, and now torn up purple scarf.

"Wow, nice find dude!" Kai patted my shoulder. "Anything else?"

"Nada, but maybe this scarf is some sort of clue." I suggested. "Zane can you scan this?"

Zane gently took the scard from me. His blue scanning beam ran over the purple, torn up fabric.

"These torns are pretty recent. He must have lost this either earlier today or perhaps yesterday. Either way, he could be close by." Zane analized.

"So if we keep looking in that area, we should be able to find him!" I felt my face lighting up. Im going to finally find Jade and I can apologies for the fight and he will come back home with me!

Just then Zanes falcon swooped down in through the window and landed on the control consol. Nya ran into the room.

"Guys, the falcon! It found something while you guys were searching and it took me to this place! You guys need to see it!" Nya motioned us to follow her. We bolted out of the room and flew away on our dragons.

><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

I couldnt believe my eyes at what I saw. Tucked away in a hidden forest, a tree house was built up. I jumped to the ground, off of my dragon and ran over to the ladder. I climbed up and opened the closed hatch.

There was a small kiddie table with two chairs. A couple of books were places in a small book shelf, and some comics were layed out across the floor. I climbed up into the fort and looked around. These comics were Jades. There were some blueberries, Jades favorite. Jades backpack! Filled with his clothes. He was here!

A piece of paper blew in from the balcony and hit my face. I pulled the paper off of my face and read it.

Dear Lloyd,

I stink at writing letter, but here we go. Im going to be as honest as ever, and say that I really miss you. I want to come back home. But the issue is that I dont know the way back home. I guess im a lost runnaway.

Anyways if you get this, know im at Clementines tree fort. She is taking care of me and helping me feel better, but I want you to come find me please. I want to come back home and be with the team, mom, uncle wu, and mostly I want to be with you.

Please find me soon.

~With all of my brotherly love,

Jade

I felt tears rolling down the sides of my face as I finished reading the letter. Jade wasnt mad at me. He missed me.

"Lloyd! Look at this!" Kai ran over to me and showed me a letter.

"Its too late to save him now, ninja. -unkown"

"It must have been Mr. C" Jay yelped.

"Well duh! Mr. C is the only bad person going after Jade, sherlock!" Cole crossed his arms.

"If Mr C has been here...then he must have kiddnapped Jade! We have to go save Jade!!" I yelled.

"We habe to figure out who Mr C is and where he is first." Jay noted. I sighed in defeat. I just want Jade back already!!

"We will save him Lloyd. But we just need more information." Kai placed his hand on my shoulder.

We flew away on our dragons. I had all of Jades things. Hopefully we will find more clues soon to where Mr C is so then I can kick his butt and save my little brother!

Dont worry Jade. Im coming for you.
