"Take positions," Sensei orders as we all get into our spots. I create my elemental dragon and fly next to the Bounty as Morro attacks it.

"Port side," I shout, dodging an oncoming attack. "Come on, baby," I murmur to my dragon. I still haven't gotten used to the way it flies, still stuck on Alastair.

As Morro's dragon get close to mine I turn sideways, hoping to run into his. He jumps off his dragon, making it disappear, and jumps onto mine, shoving me off.

Morro follows right after, pulling out his weapons and laughing. "Cole, (Y/n), and Jay, will keep him busy," Zane says, running away with Kai and Sensei.

They pull out their own steel swords while I surround my body with darkness. Cole gets flown into me, interrupting my focus. "Crap, sorry (Y/n)."

Before he attacks Jay with his swords, Nya uses her own weapons to stop him. As he shoots lighting at Nya, she dodges, but it hits the ship.

She gives me a worried look. "That's not good." I yelp when the ship suddenly turns sideways, throwing us to the side.

"We need to stabilize the bounty," Cole shouts. Nya grab my suit and flings me and herself up to the steering. "Pull up, she orders, grabbing ahold of the wheel.

As I grab on, Nya loses her grip, leaving me to hold it myself. The Bounty leans sideways more and I lose my grip.

Cole and Jay joins up, helping me pull up while Nya hits buttons to help us. We get throws back and forth as the Bounty tips itself.

"Hold on!"

I yell as the Bounty crashes into the ground.

———————————————

"That was terrible," Kai yells, throwing his hands into the air.
"It could've been worse," I point out. "Sensei made an imprint," I continue, leading the others to where Sensei made the print.

"These symbols will lead us to the tomb of the First Spinjitzu Master." I jump down after the others and walk along the ground.

"We'll set up camp and wait for Misako."

—————————————

The others listen in on Sensei's story on how he found Morro. I carelessly pick at my suit, already knowing how the story went.

When Sensei found me under the hands of my father, he took me in and told me everything he knew, so I'd be ready for anything. I guess it was enough up until now.

"Wait, you're saying, Morro, the master of wind, was going to be the green ninja?" Jay cuts in, stopping my thought process.

I chuckle, knowing they're in for a long ride. I grab another log and toss it into the fire. Cole grabs my hand. "How did you know about Morro? How are you not freaking out about Lloyd?"

I sigh, the truth was, I am terrified of Morro with Lloyd, he's a ghost and Lloyd can't fight against him. "Sensei tought me, and I guess, I know that Lloyd will survive."

The wind blows, causing the fire to blow with it. "Um, yeah, I don't like ghost stories," Cole mourners, tightening his grip on me.

"You must find the tomb before he does. We are at an advantage: we have (Y/n)," Sensei says. "She is his sister, and the closest to him anyone has been, if it all come down to it, (Y/n), must be the one to fight him."

I lower my head with a sigh. I knew that Sensei was telling the truth, I just didn't want to believe it. "Yes, Sensei."

The others sense my sadness, but don't push it. "Well, that means we need to get to Morro and stop him."

———————————————

Misako has finally arrived and we all wait for instructions. She hasn't been able to find what the last two symbols mean, but the first one is Airjitzu: the ability to temporarily take flight.

Zane has said that it was recently stolen by Ronan. "Ugh, that dude again?" Nya asks who he is, but we dismiss her.

"It means we need to head to Stiix is Ronan is there."
Cole helps me up onto my Walloper. "Wait, Sensei. Why can't I use my elemental dragon, it would be so much faster."

"We don't want to show Morro where you are." I sigh and nod my head. This is going to be a long trip. I giddy-up and stay in a line behind Zane.

I reassure Nya with a smile as I ride away. She isn't too happy about staying behind.

The boys have counted down from one-hundred-thousand. They keep singing the song over and over again.

I chuckle, finding the song quite funny. "Enough," Kai shouts, stopping them. "I'm really thirsty, so we don't have to keep singing about tea."

"Hey, Kai, we should be riding away from the sun, Stiix is on the eastern coast," I give a heads up. Jay stood abruptly and yells. "Why did you tell us that?"

"'Cause Kai wanted to lead," I shrug as Cole, Jay, and Zane all turn around to go the others way.

Kai catches up after also turning. "Argh, I really hope we get Lloyd back." I scrunch up my face as Kai says that. I get that he's close to Lloyd, but Lloyd's my brother.

"Yeah..." I trail off, not knowing what to say. Zane speeds up, seeming to find train tracks. "They must lead to Stiix," Jay says.

"Ugh, fine," Kai groans.

——————————————

"No more bottles of tea on the wall," they sing, finally finishing off the song. We all chuckle, Kai also joining in.

"Uh, I wish Lloyd was here for that," Jay says. I squeeze my eyes closed and flinch slightly. I prickle of fear rubs down my back.

"We'll get him back," I sneer, not noticing my tone. Cole sends me a smile, brightening my mood.
"Let's take a break here Zane says as we stop at a abandoned small hut.

I hear low cackling and tense up. "What was that?"
"I don't know, but be on guard," Zane replies.

Suddenly, a large vehicle pops up and revs straight towards us. Zane throws his shurikens while I throw balls of darkness, but they both go straight threw him. "It's a ghost!"

We all dodge when he runs into the house, breaking it. "We can't hit him, but he destroyed that hut!"
The ghost's weapons wraps around Cole's walloper, turning it into a ghost.

It then, wraps around my food and drags me with it, much to my relief, not turning me into a ghost.
"Guys," I yell, the ground rubbing against my back.
Zane throws his shuriken as it unleashed me. "Thanks."

Cole somehow grabs the weapons and ties it to the water container. As the ghost stands up, the train comes.

"Ha, that's how you kill a ghost," the boys cheer. "Guys, ghosts can go through things," I gulp.

Just as I predicted, the ghost shows back up, laughing. As he pulls his weapon, it pulls the water and it covers him.

His figure shakes before exploding in green goo. We all stand in shock. "Wha-what j-just happened?"

"I guess, water can stop a ghost." I freeze getting an idea.
"The train! It leads to Stiix!"
