Winds of Change
(Alright! Season 5 has begun! This is gonna be a whirlwind of fun. Now, onto Possession!)
So, it has been a long while. Around a couple of months have passed since the defeat of Chen and his followers as they were banished to the Cursed Realm... Along with Garmadon having sacrificed himself to do so. The team is back together and things are looking up. I also told everyone else about what had become of my parents, Lloyd and I both grieved together as we share the lost of parents. Now, Master Wu is set to retire and open up his own tea shop. This will certainly be a change of pace. But... I had other things to attend to. And after a lot of delaying, and encouragement from the others, I'm finally doing it.
I stop and get off my motorcycle, taking off my helmet and set it on the seat, I grab the basket I brought with me then smooth out my clothes. I inhale deeply as look at the beautiful tree. It stood tall and petals fall from the blossoms that bloomed from it. It had flowers of various colors and standing in front of it is a tombstone. This is the place where Wu told me he and Garmadon buried my mother. (Wait and you shall receive. 😏) I inhale deeply then exhale slowly as I walk up to the tombstone. I sit down on my knees and set the basket down as I look at my mother's tombstone. '(M/N) (L/N): Master of Life, Friend, Sister, Wife, Mother.' I open the basket and take out a plate of cookies, Wu said she loved them, and place the down. I then take out gemstones and place them around the tombstone.
I close my eyes as I inhale deeply, preparing myself. I open my eyes, "Hi, mom." I speak. I look down at my lap, "Wow. With how often I heard your voice in my head, it really does feel weird finally talking to you." I start. I look at her tombstone again, feeling tears build up in my eyes but wipe blink them away and continue, "Things have been... peaceful. And while I was alone for a long while, I have a family now. I met Wu and he taught me the ways of the ninja. And I met the guys: Kai, Jay, Zane and Cole. They have their own quirks, but I have come to really care about them. And there's Lloyd, my little brother. He is also Garmadon's son, who got free of the evil from the Devourer, but ended but having to sacrifice himself to stop the Second Serpentine War." I explain. Man, I thought I would be more nervous. Looks like the words of the guys really helped
Especially Cole. After he told me about what happened to his mother and how he and his father still had each other which made it easier. Cole has always been a great friend, but I have always felt like my relationship with him is... different. (Different how~? 😊) I shake my head and focus, "Chen can't hurt anyone else now. You and Dad have been avenged. I hope you two are happy together and relieved to know I'm doing good." I talk with her for a while. Telling her about how I have gotten better with my powers and how things are okay. But then I think back to that voice I heard during Garmadon's memorial. I shake it off, "Anyway, I think it is long overdue we had a talk. And I want you to know that I will continue fighting to maintain the balance of Ninjago, but also to fight for my family." I state.
I reach into the basket and take out a folded piece of paper. I smile as I unfold it then place it against the front of the tombstone. I stand up and grab the basket, walking over to my motorcycle. I put away the basket, put on my helmet and get on. I drive off as I feel a lot lighter now.
Third Person P.O.V.
After (Y/N) drives away, the gems decorating the tombstone shine for a brief moment. The paper leaning back against it has a drawing of (Y/N) standing between her parents. Wu provided a picture of (M/N) to (Y/N), and the picture shows (M/N) and (F/N) wearing long, white robes with smiles as they stand on either side their daughter. (They will always love her. 💞)
Kai's P.O.V.
Fish caught, mission accomplished. We stand on the docks now and I look to see a man rent a fish pole for a little kid. I turn to face Lloyd, "Looks like we made this place safe to fish again. If your father was still here, he'd tell you he's proud." I tell him. He frowns and I step forward to place a hand on his shoulder. "You've become a great leader, Lloyd." I tell him. "No, we're a great team." I nod at his words. "Can't say I don't miss him." He says. We then look to see the giant fish be lifted out of the water and place in a giant tank, water splashes onto Cole, Jay and Zane. Heh. "With my dad gone, sometimes I question where I'm going." I listen to Lloyd as he steps forward. "Sometimes I worry about... who I might become." He says.
I sympathize with his words. "I know how that feels." I walk up and place my hand on his shoulder, "After I lost my dad, I lost my way. But I was lucky to have my sister watch over me. And you were lucky when (Y/N) found you." I tell him. After everything that has happened, I see Lloyd in a whole new light. He still needs guidance, losing a parent, or both, can be hard to move forward from. But I'm gonna support him as best I can. I then smirk, "And to add more assurance for you, I'll watch over you from now on too." I pull him down to give him a noogie. "Hey. Hey, no one messes up my hair." He smiles, and that lets me know I am successful. (Brotherly love.) "Hey, you two gonna get in the picture?" Jay asks us.
I let go of Lloyd as he walk over and stand in front of the tank with Cole and Zane. He all pose and Zane asks the camera man to step back. But he ended up stepping off the dock and falls in the water. Whoops. "Ha, ha! You guys!" Oh, he's fine. "Oh-Oh, great! Who's gonna believe us now?" Jay says. But then we get splashed by water from the fish. Ugh, I hate water.
(Y/N)'s P.O.V.
I drive for a while until I arrive at Wu's tea shop. I park my bike then get off and take off my helmet. I see Wu and run over to him. We greet each other as we enter the shop. Nya then appears as we make it to the entrance. "(Y/N), Hi! So, how did, umm, visiting your mother go?" She asks. I give her a smile, "Surprisingly, relaxing." I answer. She gives me a smile back. "Oh, here, let me give you a hand with that." She says to Wu and I step aside as he moves the bucket away from her. He tosses it to his other one then passes by Nya. "I am old, not weak." He says. I giggle softly. "Don't have to tell us twice." I comment, walking up to the counter to meet with Misako.
"Well, it's nice to see your visit went well." She says. I give her a smile, "Yeah. I'm surprised I wasn't a wreck like I was when meeting my father." I admit. She smiles at me then looks at Wu, "You look after ninja. I look after you." She tells him. My powers flare up as I feel her care for Wu, but then I notice the picture in her front pocket of her shirt on the left. It's the one I saved back when the Stone Army invade Ninjago City. I gave it to Misako a while back, when we were on the Dark Island. She now keeps it close as it reminds her of the good times before Garmadon turned evil. (Ever wondered what happened to that picture? Now you know. 💡) "Well, Steep Wisdom is starting to look like a real tea house, except for one thing: customers." Nya says.
"Good things come to those who wait." Wu says. Then I smile as feel five familiar presences and look to see the guys arriving on their Elemental Dragons as they land outside. "Oh, who am I kidding? I'm tired of waiting. I'll put the Ninja to work." Wu says, picking up a box. "Happy to be of service." I joke, holding a hand to my head then follow Wu as we walk out to meet with the guys. "Ninja, you need to find customers." He states. "No 'Hello, how's it going, glad to hear you saved the day... again?'" Jay says as he makes his dragon disappear. "Yeah, Sensei, we're all a bit tied. You mind if we handle this tomorrow?" Cole says. I give him a smile and walk up to him, "Never put off tomorrow what can be done today." I tell him, tapping his chest. Then lean forward, "And he said that he is tired of waiting." I whisper.
I then walk back over to Wu. "We all have a share of this business succeeds. How else do you expect me to be able to afford all your new uniform? Which reminds me, your new ones arrived." Wu says, placing down the box. He opens it and pulls out a shirt. "Aww, cute." I comment. It is a short-sleeved, mainly white with aqua-blue at the edges with the logo on the front. A blue teapot with a dragon on it. "Those do not appear to be a ninja uniform. The resemble work attire." I hold in my laughter when Zane asked that. "That's because they are work attire. We're working in a tea shop, not running a ninja academy." I clarify. "Very observant, Zane. And precisely, (Y/N). We must focus on furthering brand new awareness." Wu says.
He then takes out fliers that are also in the box, "And here are the fliers I want each of you to pass out in the city." He gives me a stack then goes to give out the guys theirs. "Uuugh! If I have to pass all these out, I may be the one passed out!" I roll my eyes at Jay's drama. We then put on the uniforms and they come with cute teapot shaped hats. Even cuter! "Aren't we going to look kind of dorky flying up on our elemental dragons with these things on?" Kai complains as we all enter the shop. "You won't be flying on anything. We're selling tea, not magic. Besides, you all have been relying a little too heavily on your elemental powers lately. Real powers comes from the inside." Wu says. He may be retired but he has not lost that wisdom. (He is old.) "It would be our honor, Sensei." Lloyd tells him as he places a hand on his shoulder.
"Thank you. I'll let him know right away." I hear Misako say, "Let who know what right away?" I ask her. "Is it a big order?" Nya asks as well. "It's the police. They've asked for Lloyd. There's been a break-in at the museum." Misako informs. The guys gasp and I roll my eyes, "It's not that serious." I mutter. "Go on. I'll take your share." Cole says to Lloyd. "Thanks. I owe you one." Lloyd says then goes to leave but I grab his arm. He stops and looks at me. Something about this is off. "Hold on. They asked only Lloyd? And it's a break-in at the museum. Surely the police can handle that on their own." I voice my thoughts. "(Y/N), I can handle myself. You just go with the guys and hand out some fliers. I'll be back before you know it." He says, giving me a smile. I sigh and let him go, giving him a small smile, "Okay. Just be careful." He nods his head. "Aren't you going to kiss your mother goodbye?" Misako says. My smile widens at feeling Lloyd's embarrassment, (Pfft! 🤭) "Mom, we-we've talked about this. I-I'll catch you on the way back." He says. The others laugh as Lloyd runs off, "Be sure to keep your word, Green Ninja!" I call out. "I will!" He calls back.
"Remember, no powers." Wu states. The guys groan but I roll my eyes as I smile, "Come on, you guys. Let's stir up business!" I try to encourage them. "Since when are you excited to hand out fliers?" Jay asks. "Do you want to ask stupid questions or get to handing out fliers so you can rest sooner?" I ask him as I lay a hand on my hip and give him a raised brow. "Second option, please." That's what I thought. (She knows them too well.)
Lloyd's P.O.V.
I change out of the uniform and into my ninja one then summon my Elemental Dragon. I fly to Ninjago City then make it vanish once I make it to the museum. I put on my hood, run up the steps then stop at the police tape. "Well, lookie here, the Green Ninja. Feel safer already." An officer says. I jump and land on the tape the front flip and land on the floor. "I got your call there was a break-in?" I say to them. "The night watchman over there had quite the scare. Doesn't remember a thing." "Hasn't been too helpful. Maybe you'll have better luck." "Thanks." I tell the officers and take off my hood as I walk over to the watchman.
"So you were on guard when it happened?" I ask him. He pants softly, but doesn't answer. He wears a blanket and holds a cup of tea. He must have been spooked big time. "Can you show me what was stolen?" I ask again. But he doesn't respond. Again. I walk up to him and lay a hand on his shoulder. "I'm here to help you." I tell him. But then he glares at me and grabs my arm, dragging me somewhere. We enter a room and he lets me go as he closes the doors. I look around the room, "I was knocked out. When I came to, I found the only thing stolen was something that wasn't even on display." He explains. I walk over to the open crate to only find sand coming out of it. "Just a worthless, old armor brass plate they call 'The Allied Armor of Azure.'" He explains.
I walk over to the crater and grab the door to it, "Why would a thief leave these priceless relics and take just that?" I ask, opening the crate to see trail marks in the sand. "Oh, I don't know. Maybe because when you're in trouble, they say it's got the power to summon allies, Wether they be friends, foes, even spirits from the Cursed Realm." He answers. But the last part gets me thinking, "The Cursed Realm? My father is there..." I look back but stop talking as he holds a hammer and I jump to avoid it. (Hammer! 🔨) I sit up and he comes at me so I move again. I stand up and step away from him and he takes off his blanket to reveal the, "Allied Armor. You stole it?" Why would he steal it?
"So, Wu chose you to be the beloved Green Ninja? Silly old man." What is he saying? "How do you know Sensei?" I ask him. "And if you've got a bone to pick with me, maybe we can discuss things without weapons?" I try to reason with him, but he gets ready to swing at me with the hammer. I duck to avoid it, but hear noise and look back. "Hey..." The crates move and I cover my head as they fall. But I don't feel anything and look to see the night watcher get buried by the crates. I jump over them and move them off him. "I don't want to hurt you." I tell him. He grunts at me but then stops and passes out. However, a shadow leaves him and enters a portrait of Chen. It looks like he's coming out of the painting. "What's going on? Someone was in my head." The watchman wakes up, but I focus on the portrait as it laughs.
I harden my face and hurry over, grab it then run over and smash it onto a pedestal. It breaks into pieces but then the shadow enters the Serpentine statue on the pedestal. "Your powers are useless. You think you can hurt a ghost? I can possess anything!" Crud. It traps me in the tail. I try to break out, but it tightens and it's too strong. I see the ghost leave the statue then it goes into the sand. It shapes into his form, and I see that he has green markings around his eyes. (Tis him! 👻 💚 💨) "When he was in my head, I saw his thoughts, the world. The world will be cursed!" I hear the watchman state.
I try to get out again, but I'm stuck. "You're a ghost from the Cursed Realm, but how did you escape?" I ask the ghost. "When your father opened the door, he should've been more careful what came out." He says. He flies at me and I hold my hand to protect myself. Sand is blown all around me. Shoot, I shouldn't have gone alone. (Y/N) was right, I wish she was here. Wait...The armor! "Hurry! The Allied Armor, give it to me!" I shout. He runs over and gives it to me, but then I'm thrown and land on the ground. At least I'm free. "Behind you!" I sit up and glare at the ghost, "You can't have the armor." I tell him. He appears as he wears the armor. "The armor's nice, but it's not the only thing I want to possess." He says. "What else do you want?" I ask him. "YOU!" (Eek! 😱)
What?!? He flies at me. "AAAAHHHHH!!!" I scream. Everything goes dark. I can't... I can't feel anything... Guys... (Y/N)... Help... me..... (Lloyd...)
Third Person P.O.V.
Elsewhere in Ninjago City, the guys and (Y/N) stand in in a small area reserved for a small bit of nature as they hand out fliers, or try to, to people walking by. "Uh, Steep Wisdom. Enlightenment in a cup." Kai offers to an elderly woman. "Steep Wisdom? Never heard of it." The lady says, throwing the flyer away. "Best little tea shop in Ninjago." Cole says, though people pass by him on the sidewalk. "First cup is free, with a flier." Zane says to try and get people interested. "Take... Why won't you take the flier? Just take the flier!" Jay yells at a woman that brushes off the flier offered by him.
However, (Y/N) is not having much trouble as a a boy and girl came up to her with their mother. "Wow! You're the Purple Ninja!" The boy says in excitement. "You're my favorite!" The girl says. (Y/N) smiles down at them. "Thanks. And perhaps you might find out your favorite tea over at Ninjago's newest tea shop owned by Master Wu. First one is free with a flier." She informs and offers the mother a flier. She takes it and looks at it. "Hmm, it doesn't hurt to try. What do we say, kids?" She says. "Thank you!" They say to (Y/N). They then walk off as (Y/N) smiles at her success. (Such sweet kids. 🥰) But then frowns as she feels the guys' feelings and looks over to see them join together.
She walks over to meet with them. "Oh. I see no one else is having any luck." Kai says. "Actually, I manage to get one woman and her kids interested." (Y/N) informs. "Correction: One lucky." Kai says. Jay sighs heavily, "It's as if they think I'm passing out a communicable disease. I mean, sure, I have a cold sore, but it's hardly contagious." Jay says. (Y/N) looks at him with her mouth opened slightly and with a raised brow. "Gross." She comments then steps away from him along with the other guys. "What? What?" Jay asks. "Maybe if we can use our powers, we can get this over with?" Cole suggests. "Now, hold it right there, Tiger, Master Wu said NO powers." (Y/N) argues. "Indeed. Sensei gave us strict instructions not to use our elemental powers." Zane agrees with (Y/N).
"Well, Sensei's not here, and what he doesn't know won't hurt him. I'm in, is everyone else?" Kai says. "Yes!" "Yeah!" The guys cheer then run off to get attention for the business. (Y/N) groans as she rolls her eyes, "What would be the point?" She asks herself then walks over to sit on a bench. She sets down the fliers she had then caress her necklace under her shirt. "Did you ever had to deal with this, Mom?" She asks out loud. "Probably did." She says, leaning back as she watches the guys. (Yeah, she had to deal with Wu and Garmadon. Imagine that. 😮💨)
Cole runs across a street but then a car swerved to stop before hitting him. "Phew!" Cole breathes in relief. "Hey, young man. Watch it!" The driver yells. But then Cole ducks down and lifts the car above his head, "Oh! Oh, no. Oh, no. Put me down! Put me down, I say!" The driver yells, but the screams as Cole spins the car. "Feeling tired? Out of strength?" He says, a crowd forms as they applaud his display of strength. "Yeah! Then get a pick-me-up at Steep Wisdom." Cole informs. A performer blows on a lot torch and gives the illusion of him breathing fire. Kai walks up next to him, "Care to pass the torch?" He asks the man. "Sure. Let's see what you've got there, Mr. Teapot." The man says, handing the torch to Kai. "If this isn't your cup of tea, how about this?" Kai says, he blows fire and uses his powers to have a it shape into a teapot on the ground. The crowd awe at the stunt then crowd around Kai. "Steep Wisdom. The hot new place." He informs them.
"Ha! You think that's a crowd? Check this!" Jay says then grabs onto cables of a nearby power box, electricity cackles as Jay uses his powers to feature the logo of Steep Wisdom on the screens hanging on the buildings. The crowd gasps in amazement and Jay jumps on top the box and tosses out fliers then jumps and the crowd catches him. "I know. It's shocking, right?" He jokes. "If we're going to use our powers, you may as well do it right." Zane says next to Kai, then hurries off and jumps into the air as he summons his Elemental Dragon. He flies up into the air and the dragon roars as he then commands it to dive down then halts it, having it breathe out an ice to form a giant teapot. The crowd cheers and Zane tosses fliers down at them.
(Y/N) shakes her head, but smiles at the guys antics. "Ah!" But then she gasps as she leans forward and holds a hand to her chest. Feeling something very, VERY wrong. (Uh-oh. 😨) At the same time, a strong wind blows as it carries off the fliers. It also puts out Kai's fire, the screens go back to normal and Jay tries to channel his powers but nothing happens. The crowd awes in disappointment as the show is over. Kai tries blowing out fire on the torch, but nothing happens. "You're such an amateur." The performer comments as he walks off. "My powers... they're not working." Kai says in shock. "Mine neither!" Jay adds. "What do you mean your powers are..." Cole asks but then the car becomes heavier, "Uh-oh. Gya-Ow!" He grunts then groans as the car lands on him. (Oh! 😣)
(Y/N) notices and hurries over to him, the crowd laughing at Cole's misfortune. "Ouch. Somebody give me a hand." Cole groans out. (Y/N) places her hands under the car then lifts with her legs to lift it up. Kai and Jay appear and grab Cole's hands to pull him out from under the car. Once he is, (Y/N) lets go and the car lands with a thud. "If our powers are gone, that means..." Kai trails off, he and Jay helping Cole stand before looking up. "Oh, boy." (Y/N) mutters, looking up as well along with the crowd of people. Zane flies on his Elemental Dragon in the sky, but then it vanishes and Zane screams as he falls down. "He's kind of fast." Kai says. "Wait, won't he-?" (Y/N) closes her eyes upon Zane hitting the ground. But opening her eyes and looking at where he landed, more like through the ground as a holed made by his body is seen. "Huh. Titanium... strong alloy." She comments. (Indeed. 😐)
"Whoa. I think her just broke the sound barrier." Kai comments. Zane reaches his hand out of the hole and (Y/N) grabs it and helps him out of the hole. He groans as he still feels the force of the impact, "I told you we shouldn't use our powers." He says. "What powers? Where did they go? We gotta go see Wu." Jay says. (Y/N) holds up her hand and summons her powers, purple whisps emit from it. Her vision changes as she looks at the guys, seeing that their elemental auras have diminished greatly and only have it surround their bodies in a thin line. Her vision returns to normal. "I can still use mine. Come on!" (Y/N) says. She then summons her Elemental Dragon and the guys hop on. Once they all got on, (Y/N) then snaps the reins and the dragon flies off towards Steep Wisdom.
However, she could not help but worry as the wind that blew is very familiar. "Something really bad is going on. I hope Lloyd is okay." She thinks, then commands her dragon to go faster as it soars quickly through the air as the sun sets.
In Steep Wisdom, Misako pours tea leaves in a bag then closes it. "I added a little something extra." She tells the woman and her daughter. "Sensei!" "It's an emergency!" "We need you!" "It's important!" The guys exclaim as they enter the shop. "Boys, not so loud. Can't you see we have our first customers?" Misako tells them. "Wow, the real ninja! Oh, can you shock me?" The little girl says an asks Jay. "Uh... not now, kid. Maybe later. Okay?" Jay says. (Y/N) then walks over to the counter and places her hands on it. "Misako, this is little more important than tea. Something has happened and the guys cannot access their elemental powers." She tells Misako. "What?" Misako says in surprise.
"Sensei!" Kai says in relief at seeing Wu as he appears. "Yes?" Wu replies as he meets with the Ninja. "We were getting the word out..." "And then there was this wind..." "And our powers disappeared." Kai, Cole and Zane explain to him. "You were using your powers?" Wu says in a disappointing tone. "Yeah, I know, we're terrible students, but what happened to our powers?!" Jay exclaims. (Y/N) looks down as she recalls the feeling from earlier and the wind... along with... "Lloyd gave you the rest of his golden power so that you could summon your elemental powers without aid of a tool." She starts. The others look at her, but she looks at the ground as she continues. She caresses her necklace to calm her, "But something happened to Lloyd and that wind... it... it's not natural." She says. (Nope. More like... supernatural~)
Outside, as the moon is full and shines bright in the sky, a wind blows and makes a windmill turn. "(Y/N) is correct, for your powers to be gone something must have happened to..." Wu halts as he becomes worried. (Y/N) gasps as she feels something approaching. Wu equips his staff and holds onto his hat from blowing away as he looks out and sees someone appear in the courtyard. They take off their black hood to reveal it is Lloyd. "It's Lloyd!" The little girl says. But (Y/N) shakes her head as she feels something else... something familiar and NOT friendly. "I know that wind." Wu says. The guys and (Y/N) walk out of the shop, "That's not Lloyd." Wu states.
"Step aside." 'Lloyd' demands, his voice different as it is lower with a bit of a growl. "Lloyd, what's wrong with you?" Jay asks him. "I want a word with your master." 'Lloyd' replies. "Whoa, Lloyd's gone through puberty." Jay comments at hearing his voice. "What's gotten into him?" Cole asks. "I sense some kind of foreign entity has taken over his body. So the question isn't what, but who's gotten into him?" Zane informs. "Whoever you are, whatever beef you have with Sensei, you have with us. Give us back our friend." Kai states. 'Lloyd' crack his neck then laughs sinisterly. "How are we supposed to fight a friend?" Cole asks. "Let me SHOW YOU!" 'Lloyd shouts, his skin becomes ghostly pale along with his hair becoming black and some dark grey markings appearing around his eyes. (I don't think Lloyd's home right now.)
He charges at the Ninja and (Y/N)'s powers flare up as she then backflips away in time for 'Lloyd' to jump and hover in the air then send blast wind at the guys which blows them back. 'Lloyd' cackles at them as (Y/N)'s vision changes to see the entity possessing Lloyd has grey aura but a sickly dark green overshadows it. Her vision returns to normal as she steps forward and takes off her teapot hat. The guys get up after the rough landing. "Great! We don't have powers, but he does?" Jay complains, but he and the guys charge at 'Lloyd.' "Guys, wait- Uuugh!" (Y/N) groans as they do not listen to her.
'Lloyd' stands his ground then uppercuts Cole into the air, hits Jay with a side kick, punches Zane away then kicks Kai away. 'Lloyd' glares at Wu, but (Y/N) steps to block his view. "Out of the way, lady. This doesn't concern." He tells her. "It does concern me since you are currently possessing my brother." (Y/N) states. 'Lloyd' scoffs then charges at her, jumps then goes to kick her. (Y/N) slides her foot across the ground then grabs his foot, spins and throws him back. 'Lloyd' grunts as he lands on his back and quickly stands up as he glares at her and she gives one back. Cole then stands up, "We may not have powers, but we still know a little thing called Spinjitzu! Ninja-Go!" Cole exclaims as he performs Spinjitzu at 'Lloyd,' but he merely blows wind at him that breaks his spin and flies back.
(Y/N) watches him hit the wall of the shop and he gets knocked out. "So not only does he have powers, but he can control the wind too?" Jay says. "How else could he blow you away?" (Y/N) asks him with thick sarcasm in her voice. (I sense she is annoyed.) "Take the truck. Get them out of here now." Wu tells Misako as she and the mother and daughter hurry to the truck. 'Lloyd' laughs as he summons more wind. (Y/N) glares at him then readies herself, her powers respond to her wishes and she moves at quick speed and tackles 'Lloyd.' He grunts as he hits the ground, "What do you want with Wu?" She questions him. "None of your business!" 'Lloyd shouts, punching her in the face. But (Y/N) only grunts then pin down his arm. (Girl can take a hit.) He inhales deeply then blows a mighty gust at her.
(Y/N) ends up getting blown back and she rolls on the ground upon landing. She growls as she stands up and moves some of her hair out of her face which came undone from its braid as it blows widely in the wind. "Just stay out of my way, doll." 'Lloyd' states. (Y/N)'s eye twitches. " DOLL?" She growls. (Eep! 😨) And before 'Lloyd' could do anything, (Y/N) appears and punches him in the face. He grunts as he holds a hand to his face. "Don't... call me doll." (Y/N) states. (I won't. 😶🌫️)
In the shop, Wu packs some tea, "Nya, we need to leave too." He says. "But this is our place! Tell me, Sensei, what's happened to Lloyd?" She asks him. "There's no time." Wu tells her.
Meanwhile, (Y/N) and 'Lloyd' have a stand off as 'Lloyd' tried to punch her again but ended up with both his fists caught in her hands. "Ninja-Go!" Jay exclaims as he jumps and performs Spinjitzu. 'Lloyd' hears him and inhales deeply then blows a gust at him that makes Jay lose focus and be blown away from the standoff. He lands on one of his feet, but loses balance. 'Lloyd' kicks (Y/N)'s leg, making her lose balance and force her to kneel. "Just...Give... Up." He spats at her. "Don't know the meaning of that." She bites back and gives him a headbutt to his face . He grunts from the pain and glares down at her. "Our Spinjitzu is worthless against the wind." Kai says. Zane then appears with a shuriken in his hand. 'Lloyd' notices and smiles mockingly, "Shurikens? Cute. Try this on for size." He says, spinning rapidly which makes sends (Y/N) back.
He then holds his hands up as he summons wind that tears off the blades of it. The guys all scream as (Y/N) gets up quickly and summons a shield over them right before it is thrown down on them. The blades lay in pieces around them and (Y/N) sighs as the shield disappears. Her powers flare up and looks to see Misako with the mother and daughter still there. "Get OUT of here!" She shouts at them. "Ninja never quit." The girl says. She and her mother get in the truck as Misako gets in the driver's seat. She starts the engine and drives off. 'Lloyd' lets them go and he summons wind to pull Cole closer then give him a punch then sends him flying. "Cole!" (Y/N) cries out. She glares at 'Lloyd' with a furious expression.
'Lloyd' summons a wind that becomes a tornado as it lifts and gets all the guys caught in it. Once it disperses, they all land roughly on the ground and the winds force open the doors to the shop. Nya stands frozen as 'Lloyd' makes his way in, but then gets tackled to the ground. HARD. He grunts and he rolls over and pins down the one responsible, to find it is (Y/N). "You are the most stubbornest person I have ever met." He says. Then grunts as (Y/N) rolls them over and pins his arms down, "You possess my bother, marched in and make demands, attacked my friends, and you think I'm stubborn? I take it as a compliment. Now, GET OUT OF LLOYD!" She bellows. (I don't think I have seen her this mad. 😰) 'Lloyd' gets an arm free and delivers a hard punch into (Y/N)'s stomach.
(Y/N) grunts and 'Lloyd' pushes her off him as he stands up and looks at Nya. "Get out!" She tells him. "Go stock some shelves, before you get hurt." 'Lloyd' says to her. "I'll take you on anytime." Nya states as she glares at him. "Stay back, Nya. It's me that he wants." Wu says. "Not you, just your father's staff." 'Lloyd' clarifies. "I see you've found the Allied Armor, Morro, yet you haven't summoned your friends." Wu says. "Morro?" (Y/N) whisper, recalling that very name from Garmadon's memorial. "Your pathetic students haven't given me a reason to." Morro says as he gestures to the guys, panting and growing on the ground. "Hey, hey, hey! No one calls me pathetic." Jay shouts. Morro shuts the doors on them, a wind blowing at them to keep them away.
(Y/N)'s P.O.V.
Morro... The wind... That's who that is. But his aura is that of a ghost... Garmadon's sacrifice. Shoot! He has been among us this whole time and is now making his move. "You want the staff? Try to take it." I look seeing Wu hop onto the counter and Morro yells, jumping at him and breaking the counter. I grunt as I stand up and watch as Wu and Morro fight for the staff. Morro pins Wu on a shelf. "You've gotten old. You used to be a great sensei. Now you're just a petty shopkeeper." Morro says. "With age comes wisdom." Wu says, then he kicks off the shelf and the staff flies in the air and lands on the ground. I went to pick it up but stop as it rolls over flour and reveals... "A secret message engraved on the staff." He sounds surprise. He didn't know. (Then it wouldn't be a secret.)
"The staff of the First Spinjitzu Master." Morro says then small tornado forms around the staff. I grab it before he could bring it to him, "And it is not yours to have." I tell him. "Don't make me hurt you... More." He says, I glare at him but then sees Nya sneaking behind him and to the shelf. I look at him, "I think you need to worry about yourself." I tell him. Nya moves the shelf and it lands on Morro. "I do more than stock shelves." She tells him. (Atta girl. 😌) I give the staff back to Wu. "Now we leave." He says. They run off but I stop and look down at Morro. That's still Lloyd-No! I need to focus. I run out the shop, "I am not running away from Lloyd." Kai says. I stop, shutting my eyes tightly. "We will not win this fight today." I hear Wu say.
I open my eyes as I hear wind blow and look to see Kai get blown back. I move my hair out of my face and run over to him. I help him up, but then the doors blow off the shop and Morro charges at us. I move and make my stand as Morro tackles into me. "Foolish ninja, why would you try and take me on all by yourself?" He days. "She's not." Kai appears behind Morro and puts him in a headlock, "And I promised to help look after Lloyd." He says. I gasps softly from that. He did...? "I know you're in there, Lloyd. Fight him." He says, trying to reach Lloyd. I then place my hands on Lloyd's face and force Morro to look at me, "Come on, little bro. Show me you're still there." I say to Lloyd. "The staff is getting away! Let go of me!" Morro yells. "Only when you let go of Lloyd!" Kai yells back at him.
"Lloyd! Can you hear us?!?" I shout. (Come on, little buddy.) Morro grunts to try and break free, but then he stops and I feel... "(Y/N)... Kai..." Lloyd. "Help me." He says. He's still there. "Lloyd? Is that you?" I shut my eyes and feel a tear fall down my face. I open my eyes then move and grab Kai. "What? (Y/N), what are you-" I hold Kai close and tight as I then summon my powers and super jump. "No! Lloyd! Let me go!" I'm sorry, Kai. But we will have to wait. No matter how painful it is.
Once we got on the Bounty, I collapse onto my hands and knees. He's still in there... but I can't help him... I hate it! But... I feel the Bounty get pulled back. I feel myself be helped to stand up but then I fall back as the thrusters activate. I pant as I lay on my back. It wasn't just wind... And now he has Lloyd. "(Y/N). Hey, are you okay?" I see Cole look down at me. I don't say anything as I hold my hand up. He takes it and helps me up as we head to the bridge. "Whew! That was close. The coast is clear." Nya says. For now.
"Spill it, Sensei. What just happened back there, and what have they done to my friend?" Jay asks Wu. We all look back at him. "Yeah, Sensei, who was that?" Cole asks. Wu sighs heavily, "You five were not my first pupils. There was one before you." He says. The guys all gasp in surprise from the news. "Morro, the Master of Wind."
"Okay, now those lights scare me." I walk over as Nya points at the monitor and I gasp as feel him approaching us. "We got something on our six. Looks like your Master of Wind just caught his second wind." She says. I hear roaring and become determined, "Then get moving! We got a storm coming." I state. (Indeed. ⛈️)
(Alright! Hope that was a good opening for the season. Now, it will be a while until the next chapter. Sorry to leave you in suspense, but I got stuff I need to get done. Until next chapter! 😊✌️)
