Wrong Place, Wrong Time
(I had time and I finished this in less than two days. I stood up past midnight to finish it. So you better appreciate what I do. Anywho, enjoy!)
After the whole Grundal incident and me getting my arm some new scars, things have been progressing well. With Lloyd now older, he is now better able to wield his power. Though, him calling me 'sis' has definitely made our bond stronger. The others have told me to get some rest, but I still was a part of Lloyd's training and other activities. My arm was placed in a sling for a while so that I wouldn't over use it until it got better. The guys have also been a little too helpful, but I remind them of how I can handle myself. But that hasn't stopped them. Jay was worried if my injury would start bleeding again, Zane would often check on my arm with Nya to make sure I was healing fine, Kai has been helping me with some chores, and Cole, especially, has been a bit overbearing. I got frustrated but in the end, I know that they were only looking after me.
We are all currently on the Bounty. My arm is now free of the sling and I was currently standing beside Master Wu as we observed from the sidelines as Lloyd was surrounded by the guys. "Your new body is a fighting instrument. Listen to it." Master says as Lloyd was in a meditative trance. Cole then swung his scythe at him but Lloyd kicked it away. Jay then tried to hit him with his nunchucks but Lloyd grabs them and tosses Jay aside. Zane then throws his shurikens but Lloyd jumps and avoids them, and thank goodness Nya had that watermelon in her arms. "Since he's grown, he's learning faster, Sensei." I hear Nya say. "But will it be enough to challenge Lord Garmadon? Only time will tell.
I roll my eyes at Wu. He is already doing the best he can. I want to ensure Ninjago's safety too, but come on. I watch as Kai unsheathes his sword. Kai thrusts it at Lloyd, but Lloyd caught it by the tip of the blade. They standoff for a bit until Lloyd summons his powers and a small green orb forms on the tip of the blade. But Kai was able to pull his sword back, causing Lloyd to fall forward. "Ha, ha, ha. You're getting pretty good, but that move you fell for was basic 101." Kai says, helping Lloyd up. "Yeah, if had focused more when I was little, I would've seen that coming." Lloyd says. "We cannot change the past, but we can improve for the future. Again, and this time do not hold back." Wu says.
I look at the floor from Wu's order. "You already are working so hard, you need to be ready. But don't beat yourself up for falling for a simple trick." I tell Lloyd. He gives me a smile then the guys get ready again. After a while, training was done and I was currently doing a handstand to get my right arm back to fighting shape. It was still wrapped up in bandages. I was on the deck to get some fresh air, but then I hear cawing and drop my feet on the floor as I stand up and see the falcon. I walk over to Zane as the bird lands on his arm. "He has found some. And it is not good." Zane says.
We gather the others and meet in the bridge. "The Flacon has returned with troubling news. What did you see my mechanical-feathered friend?" Zane says, opening the bird's chest-plate and takes out a piece then inserts it into the dashboard. We look at the big screen to see Serpentine in the- "The Lost City of Ouroboros!" Yeah, what Nya said. "Garmadon had returned to the Serpentine home base, but why?" "Because after we took back the Bounty and it was the only place to go to along with it being the capitol city of Serpentine culture?" I sass Kai, crossing my arms. "It looks like they're preparing for a final battle." Cole says. "Nya, change course. We'll head straight for them." Wu says. Nya sails us to Ouroboros and I go get ready.
I equip my fans and tighten my braid then join with the others. But when I meet with the others, they give me this look. I give them a n unimpressed one and cross my arms, feeling their hesitation with my powers. "Whatever it is, spit it out." I state. "Well... Now, it's not like we-" "Okay, stop." I hold my hand up and Jay shuts up. "I'm not sitting this out." I state. "But, (Y/N), your injury-" "Has been healing just fine. I'm not sitting out on this." I cut off Cole. "You guys would react the same." I state and they all look away. I can feel their guilt. I admit, I was hurt that they wanted me to stay behind, but I have looked after myself for a long time before meeting them. I hear Wu sigh and look at him. "Very well." He says.
It was night by the time we arrived to Ouroboros. We actually parked a distance from the city so that we wouldn't be seen. The guys, Nya and I slide down the chain of the anchor. Once we landed on the ground, I take a deep breath and focus on my powers. I summon a crystal disk that was shaped-like a shield. I then walk to the back and then shoot purple flames from my hands, propelling us to the city. "Ya know, in hindsight, having someone with powers on the team is a soothing thought." I smirk at Jay's comment. That made me feel good. We went on for a while. "Okay, this is good enough." I hear Kai say. I stop then I make the shield disappear and we all flip and land onto the sand. We all share a look then ran into the city.
We jumped across the buildings, avoiding Serpentine. We then make it to the center. "Ninja-Go!" Wu exclaims, performing Spinjitzu and getting Garmadon's attention. "Oh, brother!" Was that annoyance or an intentional pun. I check with my powers. Huh. It was both. "It's time to we finished this." The guys, Nya and I then stand with Master. Weapons in hand and ready to fight. "Bring it on, fools." And right after Garmadon said that, Lloyd appears and shoots ice, freezing the head of the Mega-Weapon. "Argh!" Garmadon then looks at Lloyd. "Lloyd? Is that you?" I remained stoic as Garmadon said that. "Yeah. I've grown a little since the last time you saw me, Dad." I can just feel the turmoil in Garmadon as he backs away. "Stop him!" He runs off and some snakes approach us.
To put it simply, they were no match. Nya kicks down the door of the building Garmadon went through but there was a large portal. Garmadon was nowhere to be seen. "He used the Mega-Weapon again!" "Oh, swell! Every time he uses that thing, something really bad happens. Now what?" And just our luck, the ground starts shaking. "What's going on?" "Is the city sinking?" I look down as sand starts to fill the area. "Worse. The city's returning back into the desert, as if it had never been found in the first place." Zane explains. "Uh. What? What does that mean?" And then it clicks in my mind. "Garmadon's gone back in time and changed the past!" I exclaim. "He's making so that Lloyd never becomes the Green Ninja!" Zane adds. "I can't... I can't feel my hands." No. If Lloyd doesn't become the Green Ninja then that means we... never... I clench my teeth. "Not on my watch!" I jump into the portal with no second thoughts.
Third Person P.O.V.
"(Y/N)!" Everyone shouts as (Y/N) disappears in the portal. "We have to go in!" Kai exclaims. "If he changes anything, he changes everything! Protect the future, Ninja!" Wu tells them. The guys then jump into the portal and they scream as they travel through it.
They then landed in a muddy marsh and groan as the dizziness from the portal-traveling wears off. "Remind me to pack a helmet next time we time travel." Jay complains. "Where are we?" "You mean when are we?" Zane corrects Cole. "Four Weapons. Ha! My parents' shop. Nya and I used to work here." Kai answers as he realizes they have landed near his and Nya's parents' shop. "Took you long enough." The guys then look to see (Y/N) leaning back against a boulder.
"(Y/N)! Oh, thank goodness. Do you know where Garmadon is?" Jay asks as he and the guys get out of the marsh and wipe away the mud. (Y/N) shakes her head no as she uncrosses her arms and pushes herself off the rock. "No. Though, I have sense Past Kai's frustration of not being able to make a sword properly." She answers. "Wait a minute... This is the day Garmadon ordered the Skeletons to take my sister!" Kai realizes. "We need to warn them-Ow!" Kai groans as (Y/N) whacks him on the head. Hard. "Do you not understand the concept of time travel?" She questions as she crosses her arms.
Kai rubs his head but does not say anything back. So, (Y/N) continues, "Time is a very fragile, but complex thing. There are some different kinds of how time can be affected. One: It could be a fixed timeline. As in every thing that happens has already happened and that no matter the action, the result will always be the same. Two: A split timeline, as in one event and a decision made in it could go down different paths and result in those timelines existing simultaneously with what choice was made and the actions following after it. Three: a completely new timeline. If something were to be changed in the past, even just one little thing, the future existing now would be erased as a new one is made and replaces it." (Y/N) lectures. The guys were impressed by her knowledge. (I hope that was a decent explanation.)
"Well, Sensei said: 'We change anything, we change everything.'" Cole says. "Ah. Then it's a new timeline ordeal." (Y/N) states, placing her hands on her hips. "And that means?" Jay asks. "It means, Jay, that our world is a result of past events that have already happened. If for whatever reason, events in our past fail to happen, then the future could radically change." Zane explains. "Er... so what you're saying is we gotta stop Garmadon from changing anything." Jay summarizes. "But of all the times, why did we land here?" He asks. "'Cause this is where it all started." Kai answers. "Today I met Sensei Wu for the first time, and I began my training as a ninja. Somehow, Garmadon is gonna try to prevent that, but how?" Kai says.
Cole sighs, "If only Sensei were here to guide us." He says. But then Wu of the past appeared as he walks towards Four Weapons. "Oh, look! There he is! Maybe he can!" Jay says, pointing at Past Wu. "We gotta tell him what Garmadon has done." Cole says. "But we can't let the old Kai and Nya see that we talked to him, or else it will affect the future." Zane states. "Wu knowing could benefit greatly." (Y/N) comments. "Hm. I know exactly what to do." Kai says.
The Ninja then made their way to Past Wu while being stealthy. "And the shop is called 'Four Weapons,' not 'For Browsing.' Either but something, or go peddle your insults somewhere else." Past Kai says to Past Wu. "Ha! Too bad. Thought I'd find something special here." Past Wu comments then leaves. But the Ninja were hiding behind the side of the building. Kai then appears behind Past Wu and covers his mouth to keep him from gaining attention. "Sensei, we need your help!" Kai whispers. He then moves them to stand with the group. "Whoa, whoa. Wait a minute. If we're trying to stop Garmadon from changing anything, wouldn't talking to Sensei kind of be like altering the past, thus changing our future?" Jay questions as they all take off their hoods. "That would be correct. I believe a big 'uh-oh' is in order." Zane agrees, Past Wu looking at them in shock. "Uh?" Past Wu says in confusion. "Well, we can't undo what we've already done." Kai states.
(Y/N) rolls her eyes but then gets serious as she walks up to Past Wu. "Listen, Master, I know this must be very confusing, but we need to warn you." She starts. "All... five of you." "Yeah. We traveled back in time to stop Garmadon from changing the past and the only way he was able to go back in time was because of his Mega-Weapon that he made through forging the Golden Weapons together." (Y/N) quickly explains to him. "Yeah, impending doom soon to be on the way." Cole adds. "Can you help us?" Kai asks. "I don't understand, but I can try." Past Wu says. "Okay. Any moment now, the Skeletons are gonna attack, and we think Garmadon may try to hurt me. I mean, past me." Kai explains.
"Garmadon?" Past Wu whispers in shock. "We have to do everything in our power to protect my past self!" Kai states. And right after he said that, dark clouds then appear and cloak the sky, resulting in the land to be covered in darkness. Roaring was heard and the Skeleton Men appear on their vehicles. Past Wu walks forward but Kai stops him. "Let me go first! Please, oh please, I'm dying to go down there." Nuckal begs Samukai. "You nitwit." Kruncha insults. Garmadon groans as he sits in one of the vehicles. "Why'd did I ever trust these numbskulls?" Garmadon asks himself as he puts on a Skeleton mask to blend in. "Attack!" Samukai orders and the Skeleton men charge ahead. "Move!" Samukai shouts at the villagers. They scream and run away to safety.
"What are they?" Past Nya asks. Past Kai wearing some armor and wields a sword, ready to fight. "I don't know. Stay here." Past Kai says to Past Nya. He then walks out and confronts the Skeleton Men. He fight backs against some skeleton. "Well, can we help or not?" Kai asks. He, the guys, (Y/N) and Past Wu watching from afar. "Don't look at me. I'm wise, but not that wise." Past Wu says. "Technically, since the past has already been altered, I don't see why we can't fight a few skeletons, just as long as your former self never sees you." Zane states. "Ha! You made my day, Zane." Cole comments. (Y/N) then feels unwanted presences behind her and so she takes at a fan and uses her powers to send a wave of purple energy at them. They ended up being sent back and ending up in pieces. "Well, they saw us and was about to attack us. So, I think that gave us our answer." She says.
Jay then stands next to her as he takes out his nunchucks. "I missed beating up these guys." He says. More skeletons appear and Jay attacked this time. He jump-kicked one then whacks another with his nunchucks, "Ninja-Go!" He does Spinjitzu and sends another flying. "Ha-ha!" He stops, laughing as he feels the nostalgia. "Watch for when Samukai throws his daggers. A-And don't forget to save me." Kai tells Past Wu. "Huh?" The bearded man breathes out in confusion. "It'll all make sense when it happens." Kai states.
Pats Nya gets into the fight as she uses a staff to knock away to Skeleton men. "I thought I told you to stay back?" Past Kai scolds her. "And what? Let you have all the fun?" Past Nya quips as they stand back to back. They separate and Past Kai then stands against Samukai. The skeletal general chuckles darkly as he then shows his four arms, each with a dagger in them. "Oops." Past Kai backs away from the extra pair of limbs. Samukai then Past Kai blocks them. However, Samukai disarmed him and was pushed onto his back. Samukai stares him down as he twirls his daggers. "Sensei!" "I'm on it." Past Wu runs off at Kai's urgency. "Ninja-Go!" Past Wu exclaims, performkng Spinjitzu and knocking Samukai away.
He gets some hits on Samukai then stops as he confronts him. "Sensei Wu, your Spinjitzu looks rusty." Samukai insults. "Nothing like bone to sharpen its edge, Samukai." Past Wu retorts. Kai watches from the side as he watches his past self and looks up at the water tower. Samukai chuckles then tosses his daggers at Past Wu. But as the long-bearded man dodged them, they hit a leg of the water tower and this causes it become unstable and fall down towards Past Kai. "Oh no." Past Kai says as he backs away. "Ninja-Go!" Past Wu exclaims, performing Spinjitzu and saving Past Kai before he could have been crushed.
"Lord Garmadon says take the girl." Samukai orders, back on the head vehicle. But Garmadon appears and knocks out Kruncha. He then angles and shoots the claw, missing Past Nya. "You fools, you missed! Retreat!" Samukai orders, the Skeleton Men doing so as they drive off. "Huh?" Nuckal looks in confusion as he sees two Kais. "What is it?" Kruncha asks him. Past Kai shakes his fist at them while Kai stands next to Past Wu behind the water tower. "Uh... Nothing." Nuckal says.
Kai's P.O.V.
This is bad. This is not what happened.I see my past self hug Nya. "Oh, this isn't good." "Why? We saved you and your sister." Past Sensei said. "No, the skeletons were supposed to get away with Nya. The only reason you convinced me to become a ninja in the first place was to get her back." I explain. "Oh, I see." Now what? "Sensei, no matter what, you need to convince Kai to go with you." I look over at Zane as he said that. "Why? Ow!" (Y/N) smacks Jay's head. "Because if Kai doesn't become a ninja, the world as we know it won't exist. The five of us will never unite. We'll never train-" "The one chosen to be the Green Ninja." (Y/N) said before Zane would say Lloyd. She gives Zane a look. I don't need to read her mind to know what she is thinking. "Right. And Nya will never fall head over heels for Jay." Zane said. Jay gasped then shook Past Sensei. "No matter what, you need to convince him to go with you!" He shouts.
(Y/N) then grabbed him and pulled him away from Past Sensei and slapped him in the face. I winced at that. "Past Kai and Past Nya are not that far so be QUIET." She seethes. But then she perks up a little and signals us to move. We do and we watch as past me walks over to Past Sensei. "Thank you for your help. It it wasn't for your 'twist-itzu' or your 'tornad-zu,' my sister might have been taken." "Spinjitzu." Oh, yeah. I cringe then look back to see the others give me looks and I smile nervously as I scratch my head. "That's the best you could come up?" I don't need your sass right now, (Y/N).
"Come, we must train. You must become a ninja." I look back down at past me and Past Sensei. But past me laughs. "Sorry, but I got a blacksmith shop to help for back on its feet, so I-" "No. You must come. It is very important that you become a ninja. Because, uh... We must harness the fire within you!" Past Sensei insists. "Hold on, Kai, maybe there's a reason this man came into our lives. Father always said the world works in mysterious ways. I think it sounds kind of exciting." Past Nya says. Past me sighs, "Okay, if you want to become a ninja, fine by me, but I'm only going 'cause you want to." Thank you, Nya. "Ah, great, he's going! We saved the future." I look back at Jay. "Not so fast." The Zane speaks. "We still have to make sure he becomes a ninja in order for everything to get back on track." He states.
We then carefully follow as we make our way to the Monastery. When we finally make it, I take a moment to look at it. It's been so long since we had even seen it. Or the remains not it. I see Past Sensei, me and Nya walk up the stairs and I move to follow but then I get pulled back. I look to see (Y/N). "What?" I ask her. "I was hiding and watching all of you when you came and started your training. We have to be careful so past me doesn't see us." She says. Oh, right. "So, where is you?" Jay asks her. She closed her eyes and we waited for a moment. She opens her eyes, "Follow me." She says. She then jumps away and we all follow her.
We then get onto the roof of the Monastery and stay low on (Y/N)'s request. "There." She points and look to see Past (Y/N) watching the training ground. "Wait?" I look over at Cole after he spoke. "Wouldn't past you know that something isn't right if she can feel us?" He asks. "No. My powers were still dormant back then. So as long as we are careful, she won't know about us and the future will still be less altered." She explains, keeping an eye on her past self. Okay. Now to watch and hope things work out.
Third Person P.O.V.
It has been a day since Past Kai and Past Nya went with Past Wu to train. "You must harness the fire deep within you, Kai." Past Wu says to Past Kai, but the spiky-haired man got knocked back by a punching bag. He sighs as he stands up, "Yeah, yeah, yeah." Responds, sounding bored. But Past Nya was really getting into it as she was on one of the tracks.
The Ninja watch and Kai cringes at his past self. "Oh, I'm worthless." He groans. "It's like you don't even want to be a ninja." Jay comments then goes back to keeping an eye Past (Y/N) for it was his turn to keep watch of her and warn the others before she notices them. "Look, I told you: The only reason I became a ninja was to rescue Nya." Kai states. "If Kai doesn't learn to be a ninja, our future will be destroyed." Zane reminds the group. Cole scoffs, "Even when Garmadon does something good, it's always evil!" He complains.
"Well, there is one thing we can do to get Past Kai on the path to being a ninja." The guys look at (Y/N) as she said that. "What is it?" Jay asks, looking at her. But (Y/N) turns his head back to look at Past (Y/N) without looking at him. "Master Wu can only do so much, but with how stubborn Kai can be, without an actual reason or drive, the future we know is as good as done. However, we can still fix this by giving the Skeleton Men what they failed to obtain." She proposes. "What do you mean?" Zane questions her. "We kidnap Nya and deliver her to the Skeleton Men." She answers. "I'm with (Y/N). We need to take matters into our hands now." Cole agrees. "Wha- But I thought you guys said not to get involved. 'Change anything, change everything.'" Jay argues. He then sees Past (Y/N) perk up. "Duck!" He says. They do so as Past (Y/N) looks to where they are but do not see them. She then shrugs her shoulders then move and make her way into the Monastery whilst avoiding notice from Past Nya and Kai. She watches from behind the doors.
"Okay. We're good." (Y/N) says. The guys sigh in relief then get back onto the roof. "Anyway, continuing from earlier, that was before Garamadon altered the past and changed the future. Now we gotta clean up the mess." Cole counters. "They are right. The only way to save our future is for Kai to find his fire. And that requires Nya to be taken and deliver her into the hands of the Skeleton Men." Zane concurs. Kai lowers his head as he sighs. "If that's what it takes." He agrees reluctantly. "Okay, but if it's all right with you guys, I've got an idea on how I can talk some sense into myself." He adds. "Fine by me. Just make sure past you stays busy while we get Nya." (Y/N) says.
"But wait, what about past you?" Jay asks her. "Relax. I was asleep. I only woke up because of you guys duking it out on the courtyard." She says. "Now, let's save the future." She states.
Later at night, (Y/N), Cole, Jay, and Zane were on the roofs. They were all wearing plain black clothes to blend in with the night as per (Y/N)'s request. They soon made their way to Past Nya's room. They walk up to her and see her sleep peacefully. Jay gently caresses her head, not liking what is about to be done. "Time to play our parts." Cole states. He then gives Jay and (Y/N) Skelton masks and they put them on. "We'll have to act quickly while Kai is keeping himself busy." Zane informs, he too putting on a mask. (Y/N) then looks down at Past Nya and feeling something above her she wakes up and gasps but (Y/N) covers her mouth. "Shhhhhhhh." (Y/N) shushes her. Then the guys shove Past Nya into a bodybag.
Elsewhere, Past Kai is brushing his teeth. He then gurgles and spits into the sink, unaware that the mirror was taken off and set down as Kai, dressed in pjs stands opposite now. He then copies his past self. A cliché mirror act follows until, "Hey, dummy!" "Argh!" Kai surprises his past self. Past Kai steps back from his 'reflection.' "Yeah, I'm talking to you." "Me?" "Would you get your head on straight sand start listening to Sensei? The fate of the world kind of rests on it." Kai tells Past Kai. "Huh?" Past Kai tilts his head in confusion.
Meanwhile, the guys and (Y/N) were walking across the roof. Jay looks down with guilt as he carries the bag that Past Nya is in. "Unhandled me, Skeletons!" Past Nya's voice was muffled by the bag as she tries escape. "Oh, I'm sorry, Nya." Jay apologizes. "How'd you know my name? Oh! When my brother finds out about this, you'll be sorry!" Past Nya threatens. "Actually, he'll be quite relieved." Cole counters. "And the reason why we know your name is because we are Plan B. Once Plan A failed, we were sent to keep an eye on you and your brother and once the opportunity came, we would capture you and deliver you to the rest of the Skeleton Men. Also, if you don't want to lose that tongue, cease your screeching. AT ONCE." (Y/N) threatens back, improvising the situation. The guys look at her with surprise but she smiles at them, "I'm not going to rip her tongue out. Just playing the part." She states as Nya was now grumbling but not saying anything.
"Uh, guys, we've got company." Zane says, looking down to find past him, Cole and Jay. Jay stutters as they then look up at them. "Isn't that, uh, us?" "Masks on." (Y/N) says. They all put on their masks. "(Y/N), take Nya. We'll deal with, uh, us." Cole says. (Y/N) nods her head as she hoists up the bag and hold on her shoulder as she then runs off while the guys deal with their past selves.
(Y/N)'s P.O.V.
I made sure to use my powers to sense myself and thankfully, I was feeling groggy so I had plenty of time. I then smirk as I decide to try somethings I concentrate on my powers as I then super jump. "Woo-Hoo!" I cheer. I keep doing it until I eventually make it to the forest and feel the Skeleton Men nearby. I stop using my powers and travel through the trees until stand right above their campsite. "Okay, I have had enough! Put. Me. Down!" Past Nya says. I smirk then hold the bag out. "As you wish." I reply then drop her. She lands in front of a skeleton. I then vanish before he could see me. But then I feel a familiar presence. Heh. Nice try, Garmadon.
I then head off and soon feel the guys close in. I perform Spinjitzu and change back into my usual Gi and got rid of the skeleton mask. I soon see the them and wave at them. They meet up with me and Kai stands in front of me. "Is it done?" He asks. I nod my head, "The Skeleton Men now have your sister." I confirm. He nods his head. "Now we must ensure everything goes as it did before." Zane says.
And so, we watched as pats us went on our journey to gather the Golden Weapons. It felt nostalgic seeing our first adventure and I felt myself smiling a lot from it. We then made it to when we were having that dance party and I watched from a distance as my past self started playing the drums. "(Y/N)." I look back to see the guys with their hoods off. I turn to face them and take off my hood. "Yeah?" I acknowledge them. "Well, we've been talking and..." Kai starts. "We're sorry." They all bow as they apologize. I blink in surprise. "Huh?" I raise a brow. They stand up straight. "We didn't mean to imply that you would slow us down." Cole starts. "We were just worried because you got really hurt." Jay says. "But we wouldn't be where we are without you." Zane states. "You are strong, and it was silly of us to think you couldn't take care of yourself." Kai says.
I blink a few times as I take in their words. I look down at the ground as I think about their words. I close my eyes as I take a deep breath. "I get it. Really, I do. I guess I'm still getting use to people." I reply. "Also, it's not the first time I got scarred." I add, opening my eyes as I pull back my left sleeve and reveal the small scars on my left arm. I look to see guys look in surprise. "How did-" "Accident. Complete accident. Some jerk back when I was in the orphanage was saying some insults to another kid and one thing led to another. Got into a fight and I end up hitting and shattering a mirror. After that, the other kids avoided me. Thought I was trouble." I explain. I was weird before that but after that incident, I was seen as someone that was to be avoided.
I jolt a little as I feel a hand on my shoulder and look to see Cole with a comforting look. "Hey, they couldn't see how amazing you are. And you showed that jerk his place." He says. The others join us and I feel tears threatening to fall. I close my eyes and wipe away the tears. "Stop! You're making me emotional!" I whine. I hear the guys laugh and I pout at that.
After that, we watched our past selves from the branches of a tree above them. Past Wu joined us after they passed out. "Ah. What are we still here? I thought everything was back on track." Jay says. "Yeah, but we have to stay and make sure all goes as planned." Cole states. And if it does, Lloyd will still be around. "So what exactly happens next?" I look at Past Master as he asks that. "Our former selves have most of the Golden Weapons. Shadow Garmadon now should have my sister, and in about a minute, I get woken up and tricked into taking the Sword of Fire that will eventually unleash the greatest nemesis onto Ninjago." Kai explains and I look down to see Past Kai run off after his 'sister.' "Nya! Wait up!" He says. "And I remember that I woke up and chased after you." Right after I said that, past me wakes up and follows after Kai.
We then follow after them with Past Master as we make it to the Fire Temple. We rush into the place and hide behind some pillars to watch. "This is when I steal the Fire Sword and cut my sister down. Then I got attacked by my own shadow." I hear Kai say. "And I remember how I jumped in and saved your butt." I add. Past Nya screams as she is lowered down. "Tick tock. Tick. Tock." Past Garmadon says. Just like how I remembered it. Past Kai then obtained the sword, performed Spinjitzu and save Past Nya.
I watch as Shadow Garmadon appears. "You can't hurt us! You're only a shadow!" Past Kai says. "This time, I'm actually much more." What? "Wait, he never said that before. Something's different." I hear Kai say. I then gasp as I feel... "Garmadon?" I hear my past me look in shock at Four-Armed Garmadon. "G-Garmadon? You're suppose to be trapped in the underworld." "Oh, there's so much more you don't know." Garmadon informs Past Kai. "Go, future me. Destroy him!" Shadow Garmadon orders and Four-Armed Garmadon charges at Past Kai, but then past me appears between them and kicks Four-Armed Garmadon back.
"(Y/N)!" "Who?" At least that stayed the same. Past me then glares at Four-Armed Garmadon. "So, the only reason why you would travel back into the past is because you can't handle losing so many times." Past me says. Man, have I always been that sassy? "(Y/N), you need to leave! This is my mess-" "But we're a team. And we fight together." I smile at past me and Past Kai's conversation. They then stand together against Garmadon. "Ah, we have to do something! Even together, we don't stand a chance against Garmadon's four arms." I hear Kai say. "You're right." I agree. "Wait. That's it!" "What?" I ask him. "Our past selves have four arms together, but how about eight?" Kai says. I smirk under my hood at his idea.
I then hear Garmadon laugh and look to see him overwhelm past us. Then knock the Sword of Fire out of Past Kai's hands. But it lands right in front of Kai. We share a look and I take out my fans. "Let's go." He nods and grabs the sword. We jump in front of Garmadon. "There's two of each now?" "Yeah!" "Out-armed." I smirk at Past Kai and past me's comments. Four-Armed Garmadon charges at us. "How about dealing with eight arms." Kai says then dodges the Mega-Weapon. He then ducked and Past Kai rolls on his back and delivers a kick in Garmadon's face. Past me and I move to be behind and we shared a look as we then spin and kick at Garmadon together then stand back to back as we toss our fans and they knock him down. I use my powers to return them back to us. "I have powers?" I look at past me. I smirk at her under my hood. "They rule. But a pain at times." I tell her. Then we separate as Kai then charges at Garmadon, who stood up and tried to attack us.
Zane then jumps in front of us and Garmadon backs away, only to end up bumping into Cole. "Now, I've got you." He tries to take the Mega-Weapon. But Garmadon rolls onto his back and sends him flying. I use my powers to make a curved shield and Cole rolls and ends up on his butt. "You good?" I ask him, making the shield disappear and we all jump onto a some rocks to think of a different angle. "Yeah. But I think it's safe to say the past has drastically changed." He says. I hear laughing and look up to see both Garmadons do some kind of lame handshake. "I was thinking about that. It could be possible to erase the events that have transpired so far by destroying the Mega-Weapon that brought us here in the first place." Zane says. "You mean, if we destroy that weapon, everything goes back to normal?" I look down in thought as Kai said that. "It's only a theory. But what else do we have to lose?" I say to him. "But nothing can destroy the Mega-Weapon. Only a weapon of equal power has any chance of stopping it." Cole states.
"Ah-ha. Like maybe the weapons forged to create it in the first place?" I look at Jay and see him with the rest of the Golden Weapons. I smile, "Jay, you genius!" I exclaim. "No!" I then look up at Garmadon and smirk. "You thought teaming up with yourself would give you the advantage to win, but you keep underestimating us." I state. "Okay, no time on how you got these. We have to destroy the Mega-Weapon once and for all." Kai says. "Fire!" He points the sword and fire shoots out from it and at the Mega-Weapon. "Lightning!" "Earth!" "Ice!" The rest of the guys follow. "Oh! No! What are you doing?" I blink and my vision changes to see the Mega-Weapon react to the Golden Weapons. "Ninja-Go!" I hear Past Master as the elemental aura of the weapons become stronger as the Mega-Weapon then floats out of Garmadon's hands and the Golden Weapons circle it. It then stopped and shoots out of the temple.
The temple then starts to shake and collapse. "Nya!" I blink and my vision returns to normal as I look to see Past Nya vanish. "What's happening?!" Past Kai cries out. "The righting of time." Past me says. She looks at me and smiles before she disappears. And then a bright light appears and I close my eyes from it.
Third Person P.O.V.
Once it was over, the guys and (Y/N) look to find themselves back on the Bounty and it was now night. "Did we just..." Return to the future?" Kai finishes Jay question. "This feels familiar, but weren't we training Lloyd?" Cole says. "The future was altered, and there is no Green Ninja." Zane says. The guys look down with sorrow, but (Y/N) was smiling. The guys then gasp as they hear panting and look to see Lloyd enter the training room. "Sorry I'm late, guys-Huagh!" He gasps as (Y/N) hugs him and holds him up, giving him a very strong hug. "Uh, nice to see you too, sis." Lloyd says, his voice sounding strained because of how strong (Y/N) is hugging him.
"It's really good to see you, too." (Y/N) says then places him onto the ground and releases him. Lloyd takes a few deep breaths the walks to the center of the room, (Y/N) walking with him. "Are we ready to get training?" He asks. "Ha! You're still here!" Kai says happily. He and the guys hug Lloyd and (Y/N). "Yeah? Why wouldn't I be?" Lloyd replies, a little confused by what is going on. The guys part from them. "So when we went back in time and destroyed Garamadon's Mega-Weapon, that didn't change anything?" Jay asks. "My father has a Mega-Weapon?" Lloyd asks, surprised by the information. "Oh, wait a minute, you've never heard of it?" Kai says, holding a watermelon he found on the floor.
He tosses it and slices it into slices, one for each of the Ninja. "I-I think I would've remembered that." Lloyd says. "Only it never existed." (Y/N) says. "What do you mean?" Cole asks her. "When the Mega-Weapon was destroyed, it created a time paradox. Which means that everything we have went through up until now has all happened, but the Mega-Weapon was removed from it all." (Y/N) explains. She uses her powers to make her slice of watermelon float as she pulls back her sleeve and reveals her right arm to still be bandaged. She pulls her sleeve down and grabs her slice. "So, everything is fine." She concludes, taking a bite out of her watermelon. "Time paradox?" Lloyd asks, tilting his head in confusion. The guys laugh and Lloyd only looks at them with more confusion.
"You just had to be there to understand." (Y/N) pats his head. "Yeah, I guess so." He smiles as he grabs Kai's sword and tosses his smile up and cuts it up. He catches it and reveals he had craved a dragon. "Some things are best left in the past. Come on, let's just prepare for the future." Kai says and he and the guys laugh again. "I don't get it." Lloyd frowns in confusion and looks at (Y/N), only for her to shrug as she smiles at him then takes another bite out her watermelon.
Outside on the sitting on top the roof of the Bounty, Master Wu looks at the night sky as he sees one star shinning bright than the others. It then shines a little brighter and has a golden sparkle.
(I hope you enjoyed. The reason why I added the scars was because remember back in 'The Beginning' chapter? How she wore sleeves to hide the... So there's that question answered. Hope you enjoyed. I have something planned for next chapter.)
