"The Ninja and the Housekeeper"

Author's Note: Hey guys, RegularGir927 here and this is the first chapter of my Ninjago fanfic, "The Ninja and the Housekeeper." I just watched the latest episode of Ninjago and I have to say, I liked the ending and yet, it made me confused...So anyway it inspired me to make a fanfic for this show…Don't judge me...I'm a cartoon Freak! Also I do not own the ninja and the other characters...I only own my OC, Eve...This takes place after the previous season of ninjago...Okay, here we go…

It was another beautiful day in Ninjago and the entire city was celebrating the defeat of Master Chen and his Anacondrai army. The ninja, however were having trouble celebrating. Kai was lovesick for Skylor, Cole and Jay were still fighting over Nya, and Lloyd was still mourning the loss of his father, Lord Garmadon, when he was sent to the cursed realm. Everyone was still a little down and the boarding school was becoming a mess, everything was falling apart.

Kai was laying in his bed staring at the framed and signed photo of Skylor in his hand. Ever since Chen was defeated, Skylor went on to continue the family business and run the restaurant chain. It had been three months and he was still missing her. But his thoughts were broken when Cole, Jay, and Zane walked in.

"I'm just saying, It's not my fault that Nya thinks I'm more mature than you, you do tend to overreact a little bit…" Cole said,

"I do not!" Jay yelled, "Well, it's not my fault that Nya thinks I'm funnier than you, It's not my fault that you're so serious all the time!" "Oh, you wanna go buddy?" Cole asked getting all up in Jay's face, "After you, Rockhead!" Jay said, "Zip Zap!" Cole insulted, "Stone face!" Jay insulted, Zane stepped in between them. "Please, let's be at peace with one another...Let's not let anger and jealousy cloud what's really important." The two friends stopped fighting, They were still getting used to Zane's "New Look."

Kai sat up, "Can't you guys go one day without being hopelessly lovesick?!" he yelled, "Oh, we're hopelessly lovesick?!" Jay yelled looking at Kai, "Look at you! You've been moping over Skylor for over three months now! It's time for you to move on." "You can't expect me to just move on!" Kai yelled in retaliation, "Skylor was the only relationship I had that actually went somewhere. Besides, she's a descendant of an elemental master, just like you and me…She's different...She's special…" Just then, Nya walked in.

"Hey, I'm going to pick up some dinner, what would you guys want?" she asked, "I'll take Chen's noodles from 'Chen's Noodle House...It's the closest thing I'll ever have to Skylor.'" Kai moaned laying back down in his bed, She looked at the other three ninja and she shrugged and they shrugged back and she left the room.

Nya walked into the room where she saw Lloyd just sadly looking out at the sun that was setting over the horizon through one of the windows. She walked over and put her hand on his shoulder, "You still miss him, don't you?" she said, Lloyd tried to avoid eye contact with her and was trying to hold back tears. He wasn't going to cry, a ninja never cries.

"I don't know what I'm going to do Nya…" He said, He began to walk around the room, "I mean, I know that what he did was good and honorable, But...I still don't think that it was worth it to stop an entire war…" "Don't let your father's sacrifice be in vain…" Sensei Wu said putting a hand on Lloyd's shoulder, "Let it be honored and a reminder that sacrifice, takes a lot of courage…"

Nya got off of the bus destined to go to New Ninjago City and went to the noodle house to get the dinner. When she entered, she saw Skylor working the register. She walked up. "Hey Skylor!" she waved, "Nya! good to see you!" Skylor waved back, "What are you doing running the register?" Nya asked, "I thought you owned the business…" "Eh, Business has been slow…" Skylor shrugged, "I had a Number 2 combo for 8 to go…" She said, "Oh…" Skylor said, she pulled up a full bag from behind the counter, "Here it is…" She said, Nya dropped the coins into Skylor's hand, "Thanks." Nya said,

"So, how are Kai and the other ninja?" Skylor asked, "Oh, you know...We're just flying around right now, doing our own thing...and...Kai is very depressed about you...He always mopes about you…" Nya said, "Really." Skylor said a little surprised, "Yeah." Nya replied, "He talks about you, he thinks about you, and he's always staring at that picture of you…" Skylor began to blush, "I'll have to come and visit you guys some time. She handed Nya the bag, "Yeah...sure…That would be great…" Nya was struggling with the very heavy bag. She walked out the door, "See 'ya later, Skylor!" Bye Nya!" Skylor waved.

"Oh yeah, everything's going great with our group! We've got three lovesick guys, One's depressed about his father, and the school is just getting messier and messier!" Nya grumbled out loud to herself while walking down the street, "Those boys need to learn to pick up after themselves!" She then stopped when she saw a sign with a phone number that said,

"Housekeeping Business"

Charges: $55 an Hour

Traits: Hard-working, independent, friendly, family oriented.

Nya then got an idea.

The Next Day:

The Ninja woke up and were bummed to find out that it was Wednesday. Which meant, "Sunrise Exercise."

They walked into the training room where, Wu, Nya, and Misako were waiting on the deck smiling brighter than ever.

"Why are you guys so happy?" Cole snapped, "Nya has a announcement to make…" Wu said, Nya stepped forward, "Guys, I know that things have been rough lately and the school has gotten a bit messy...So I decided to hire her!" She stepped aside and the ninja saw a girl about their age with blonde caramel like hair and purple highlights. She was wearing a blue tank top with jean shorts and blue sandals. She approached the gang smiling and waving to them.

"Guys, this is Eve…" Nya said, "She's our new housekeeper…"

The ninja smiled back at the girl and Nya decided to introduce the Ninja to her.

She gestured towards Kai, "Eve, this is-." "I know you!" Eve said smiling, "You're Kai! The Master of Fire." Kai gave a nod and said, "Yes I am, Thanks for recognizing…" The two girls looked over to Jay and Cole. "You're Jay! Master of Lighting! and You're Cole! Master of Earth!" "Yeah, that's right!" Jay smiled, "Well done!" he and Eve fist bumped and she shook Cole's hand. Eve looked over at Zane, "That's Zane, You probably know about him…" Nya said, Eve just stared at the nindroid, "So the rumors were true!" The white ninja is back!" she smiled, "Actually, I'm the Titanium Ninja now…" Zane corrected her, "Okay then…" Eve said awkwardly, She finally saw Lloyd, "And you...you're Lloyd Garmadon, son of Lord Garmadon and the Green Ninja and The Ultimate Spinjitzu Master…" She gave one of those karate bows, "It is a great honor to be of your service." Lloyd bowed back, "Likewise…" He said, "I heard about your father…" Eve said frowning, "And I am so sorry…" "It's alright…" Lloyd said, "His sacrifice was not meant to be remembered in vain, but in honor…"

"Well said, Lloyd…" Kai said putting his hand on Lloyd's shoulder, "Well Eve, Shall I show you to your quarters?" Nya asked guiding Eve to the lower decks, "Yeah, thanks." Eve said, Then Sensei spoke up and the ninja turned to him, "Well, that's all we called you here for...You can go back to sleep now…" Sensei said, "Yes Sensei…" All the ninja said bowing together, they walked back to their room, "We get a new housekeeper and we don't have to do 'Sunrise Exercise?' This day just gets better and better!" Jay cheered, "So what do you guys think of Eve?" Kai asked as they entered their room, "I think she's cool!" Jay said smiling, "She's awesome!" Cole said jumping onto his bed, "She seems rather friendly…" Zane said, "What do you think, Lloyd?" Kai asked, "Oh, um, she's okay...I guess...there's not really much to say about her, we don't really know her yet…" "Yeah, you're right about that…" Kai said, The ninja went back to sleep and they thought it was nice to have a new member to the group.

There...Done...What do you guys think of Eve? and What do you think of this story so far? Let me know if it needs improvement and ideas are welcome. :)
