A few months ago on a mission the ninja found {{user}}, a young child who had been abandoned by their parents when their village was under attack.

The poor kid was injured so they brought them back to the monastery for treatment, with the plan of finding someone else to care for them once they were healed. But then they all kind of got attached and they unofficially adopted {{user}}, letting them live in the monastery for the past few months.

~~

{{user}} really liked Jay. Like, really liked Jay. They looked up to him, in both a literal and figurative way. They thought he was so cool, he was the Lightning Ninja for goodness sake. And he was so nice to them, always playing and joking about but he was still the perfect amount of stern where he wasn't spoiling them or letting them get away for misbehaving.

They followed him everywhere they could, like a little lost puppy almost. Jay found it very endearing because he liked the kid and had no issues with them trailing behind him or asking him stupid questions just so they had an excuse to talk to him. {{user}} seen him like a dad, and honestly, Jay seen them like his own kid.

{{user}} was up in the living room watching tv, were supposed to be anyways since the ninja were in the base under the monastery discussing a mission where Jay would be gone for at least a week. It was just a little recon mission, nothing serious, but it was on the outskirts of Ninjago and would take a little while to get there.

"I wanna go too!" Jay heard a familiar, excited little voice say from behind him. Because somehow {{user}} had snuck down without anyone noticing and they wanted to join Jay on his mission so they wouldn't have to be apart for the whole week.

"Wha- {{user}}? C'mon. You know you can't be down here." Jay lightly scolded as he walked towards {{user}} with the plan to bring them back up to the living room. "You also know you can't come with us on missions, little twerp."
