"Mommy? Mommy? Daddy? Where are you?" The little boy shouted into the huge crowd. Pushing and shoving, people falling to the ground in efforts to obtaining something that the little boy didn't understand. 

Slipping through the long legs of the group of people he could see the 'bad men' surrounding civilians with glowing sparks swirling out of their hands. Their efforts to hold them off were very low odds, but the little boy's eye caught the attention of  a lady with long, blonde, wavy hair in a blue kimono. 

Her sparks from her hand electrified some of the bad men making them fall to the ground. Fighting position took a toll on her as she didn't notice a man behind her with a very long stick raising the weapon. Only to have is take action in the back of her head. 

"MOMMY!" 

Jay rubbed his eyes to his temples as he was walking into the facility. He always known he had nightmares, but it was usually repetitional. This time it was different ,however; it felt like it took place where his nightmares end off on. He would always wake up in cold sweat from his nightmares, even though they're all the same it always gave the young man such a fright.

The man in uniform sprinted through the doors passing all the other employees whether they were security or not and stopped himself at the front desk. "Pixal, what's the status of the Master of Water's cell last night?" The burnet asked the lady.

With a few clicks on the keyboard she responded with a nod, "Everything from 12:00 AM to 5:30 AM were all quiet. The Elemental was asleep for the most part it seems."

The freckled boy smiled, "Thank you for informing me ma'am. Hope you have a nice day." He said before running down to the corridor onto the lower area. It's been about a couple weeks since Jay started the job and the Ninjago Elemental Facility and all has gone smoothly. 

The only thing that disappointed the boy was the fact that the Master of Water never replied to he questions or greetings. He knew the warning Ronin gave him was probably for the best, but she could've at least told him her name. Then maybe she wouldn't feel so much like a prisoner. 

Anyways, Jay pushed through his fellow guards from the lower area all the way to the very last cell he guards for almost seventeen hours a day. It might be a longer requirement, but the man in blue didn't mind at all since it meant shorter nightmares for him. Just as he was getting to the cell though, Jay noticed it was slightly opened. 

How could that be? Only he had clearance to open up her cell, who opened the cell? Jay scurried down the hall and into the cell to see a man in his late 80's caressing the prisoner's cheek. Her face said it all, scared and afraid, tears rolling down her face as he pulled the chain that was around her neck closer to him. It wasn't until he noticed that the old man's hand that was once caressing her cheek was going down her body to the end of her hospital gown attempting to go underneath it when Jay knew that this wasn't a prisoner check. 

"HEY!" Jay yelled at the pervert. He turned around with a big snarl on his face, looks like his devious plot just got spoiled. "I'm going to have to ask you to leave, sir." The young Gordon demanded. 

The old man with the frizzy brown beard whispered something in the Master of Water's ear before dropping the chain that surrounded her neck forcefully. The creep walked out of the cell were two other security waited for him. They took ahold of both of his arms and forced him out of the lower area never to enter the facility again. 

Jay sighed and walked into her cell to make sure that he didn't unlock any of the chains around her body. Before he did anything though he looked up to her face still covered with wet tears on her cheeks. He could see the hurt in her ocean eyes, even in the dark he could see right through her. 

Jay looked down at the ground, "Look I'm sorry for that intrusion. That should have never had happened. It was completely revolting to even go through." He apologized to her. 

Like the usual she didn't respond to his apology, or even made a sound. Jay knew he had to check the chains, but he didn't want to scare the woman more. "I'm only going to check your chains, okay? Once I check them all, I'm going to stand outside of the cell and won't bother you. Is that okay?" He asked her. 

She nodded silently shaking up the chains a little from the sudden movement. "Okay." Jay said tracing his fingers on the cuffs along her wrist. Locked. Then he checked the ones on her ankles. Locked. He brought his hands onto the chain on her waist. Flinched. The man in uniform pulled his hands back from the pale girl's waist and looked up at her. 

"I'm sorry, did I hurt you?" he asked her, concern taking over his body. The girl's eye shut closed, her lip quivering as she trembles. Jay wanted nothing more then to make her stop feeling unsafe. It broke his heart that this is the life she's living. Why couldn't he had gotten there sooner, maybe that old creep wouldn't have ever broken into the cell. 

He sighed, standing up from in front of the girl and walked out of the cell locking it behind him. Turning his back against the cell door, staring at the brick wall like he does every day. Everything is always quiet, and sometimes it felt off, but at times it's necessary. 

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Ronin walking towards him. Clipboard in hand, the older employee looked in the cell from the distance and then made eye contact with Jay, "I heard that there was a problem this morning. What happened?" He questioned.

The freckled boy rubbed the back of his neck, "Some old man in his 80's or something broke into her cell. From what I can only infer, the goal was to pull off a nooky." He informed him. 

"You know, this isn't the first time this has happened. A couple times the crooks pulled it off." Ronin explained to the young man. 

Jay looked back over at the prisoner he guarded. No wonder his father told him about some of the prisoners getting taken advantage of. He knew it was going around. Wonder if this happens in the upper area as well. "Oh. So it's happened before?" Jay queried.

Ronin scratched his head, "It has. Never really happens in the front of the lower area, but because her cell is at the very end, no one really comes down here, so it's perfect opportunity to mate." He explained, "I must get going now. I have to turn the attendance in and report actions from this morning." 

The boss soon left, and all Jay could think about were how he had already failed his job to patrol. How stupid is he, arriving late, scaring the elemental. Now his father will never promote him to the next level. He let his family down. Now they might disown him like they did with his mother-

"Thank you." A feminine voice murmured. 

Jay's eyes widened quickly turning over to the woman in the cage. She spoke. She SPOKE! He sat down in front of the cell, his jaw completely in awe as she stared deep into his electric blue eyes. 

"I'm Nya, Nya Smith."
