"Skylor, master of amber versus, Jacob, master of sound." I tune out the fight as they begin. My thoughts quickly catching my loss of attention.
What if we never find Zane? What happened to Cole? I am worried. I really am worried. "What do you think happened to Cole?" I lean over to whisper to Jay.
"I don't know. I don't think I want to know," he gives me a sad look. I get a blast of sound that makes me cover my ears.
"Master of sound has gotten stronger since the last time I saw him," my father speaks, removing his hands from his head.
Skylor touches Jacob, gaining his powers. "Oh sorry," Kai says as he joins up after stepping on everyone's feet.
"Maybe we shouldn't be sitting together. I mean, the more they think we're a team, the bigger targets we put on ourselves."
Before I can agree Lloyd looks over to us. "Don't say that, we are a team. Sure we just lost Cole and still can't find Zane, but we're a team."
I direct my gaze back to the fight. "Her power is fire?" My father looks at me. "No, it's amber. She can emulate anyone's power after she's touched them." Kai goes in a rant about how he's not related to her. Poor Kai.
"Good thing she didn't touch me." I shrug my shoulder. "She can't handle the power." Everyone cheers as Skylor wins, holding the Jade Blade in her hand.
"Since this is all entertaining, I wanted to give you fancy jewels," Chen says once Jacob has fallen through the hole. "But, Jay and Cole tried to trick me. So, you will not get any, and your fancy quarters will be taken away, and you'll all be sleeping in the same room." He cackles evilly.
"Jeez, ain't that great."

I could hear the boys talking from their beds before the doors open, in coming thugs. "Hey, What are you doing? It's the middle of the night!"
The place the things on my feet. I only recognize them as roller skates when I stand and almost lose my balance. "Let me guess, another one of Chen's battles?"
I nicely skate over to Lloyd. Him and I know how to skate. Jay surprisingly skates over to me. "I love roller skates!" He seemed to know what he was doing. Kai on the other hand was seemingly struggling to even stand.
"Master Chen wants everyone of the Royal Arena." We all skate around to Clouse, others being faster. "If most of us have already fought, why are we all in skates?"
Clouse places his hands behind his back. "Only two of you will be fighting, but the rest of you will have a chance to...affect the outcome."
"Who's fighting?" Griffin skates next to me. "The Green Ninja versus the Master of Form."
I stand next to Kai as he begins to speak, doing strangely well at standing on his own. "You haven't heard? I hear she can look like anyone. She'd be right under your nose and by the time you figure out, she'll know all your weaknesses."
"Well, aside from a sore back, not many," Lloyd replies. Kai walks away. "Skates...why'd it have to be skates?"
"Kai," I yell as he slowly walks next to us. I hear Camille laugh as she changed from Kai back to herself. "Watch your back, green ninja."
—————————————
"I don't like the look of this," Lloyd sighs. I skate up to him and put a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry, we got your back."
As I say that, Kai falls. "Well, some of us."
Everyone skates in the skating rink. "Welcome, to my favorite event. Thunderblade!"
Chen skates towards us on his own pair of roller blades. "A Jade Blades for you, Lloyd, master of Power. And another for Camille, Master of Form." They each get thrown a Jade Blade and colored helmet.
"Rules are simple. Complete a lap with your Jade Blade in hand, a point. Most points before time ends, you win."
"Woah, what about us?" Griffin steps forwards.
"You get to help anyone you wish, or hurt for that matter. You're free to chose sides."
Everyone except for Jay, Kai, and I grab the color Camille has.
"And we said we didn't have targets on our backs," I heavily sigh, grabbing a helmet the color of Lloyd's, Kai and Jay soon following.
"Alright, most laps with Jade Blades when time runs out wins, loser is out." Everyone glares is Kai, Jay and I as we stand behind Lloyd. "Go!"
Lloyd and Camille stay neck and neck as our horn blows, signaling everyone else to start skating.
I watch as I let Jay in front of me, and Kai behind me. A ding signaled a point for both of them.
"Crap," I shout as everyone gathers together, stopping Lloyd from coming through. Camille pushes me out of the way. If it weren't for my excellent balance I would've fallen.
"Make room for Lloyd." As Jay shouts and idea he shocks everyone, allowing Lloyd to get through.
As Lloyd goes through Kai grabs into them and makes both of them fall. As Camille as her team get father ahead of us, Jay stays back to help Kai up.
"Lloyd, here!" I get up behind my brother and grab his shoulder, using my speed to add onto his. Just when I thought I could have him caught up to the other team, I get knocked off my feet by Paleman.
As I catch up to Lloyd again, Camille is ahead by two points. Lloyd gets ahead of Camille's team and he jumps when the track suddenly lifts up.
Camille's teams fails to do so, so they all fall. "What," I question seeing Camille change back from her disguise as Lloyd. "Strike his back, shadow."
I sneer and try to catch up to the Master of Shadow, who disappears. Suddenly Lloyd flies forward, Paleman grabbing the Jade Blade from his hand.
I trip Shadow as Jay grabs the Jade Blade back. I skate up and pick Kai up from the floor. "Easy there, hot head," I smirk, setting him back on his feet.
Shadow tries to disappears once more but I stop him. My hands go out and grasp every darkness around the track and keep it in a ball in between my hands. Jay knocks shadow down.
Griffin turner falls into Kai, both of them tumbling down. "Watch our for that poison cloud!" Before I get hit, I dodge the cloud of poison directed towards Lloyd.
"Lloyd!" Jay tackles Lloyd before he gets his by a buggy. I grab onto it and try to knock off Camille, who grabbed on.
Jay gets sped around the track and thrown into Lloyd by Griffin. I get knocked from the buggy by Neuro. "We're so not loved."
Kai suddenly shoots forward with his power and tackles Camille from the buggy, causing her to drop her Blade. Jay grabs it and tosses it to me and he gets hit.
As Camille tried to grab the Jade Blade from my grasp I trip her, her teams falling onto her.
As Kai grabs onto my suit, I lose balance, allowing Camille to grab her blade.
"A spell," I hear Paleman ask as I catch up to him and the others who are surround Kai. "We don't know, but we have to stay in the tournament to find out."
"This isn't about Lloyd winning. It's about all of us stopping Chen," Jay adds in. "Why are you telling me this now?"
"Because it's never too late to do the right thing," I conclude, speeding up to help Lloyd. Just when Camille knocks everyone but Lloyd and I down the buggy stops next to us. "Need a lift?"
"Huh," I ask looking to see Skylor and Kai have taken the buggy. "Here take the wheel." I let Lloyd hop in, grabbing the back as he speeds.
Chen was trying everything in his power to win, but nothing was working. Camille didn't seem keen on the idea of all of us winning when she pulled Lloyd out of the vehicle.
I give him a boost and they begin fighting with their blades. They both fall, Camille loosing her Blade, but they keep going.
The bell rings and Lloyd doubled over to catch his breath. Camille smirked. "Winner is...Lloyd!"
Camille gasp as she hears that Lloyd won. "You forgot something," I smirk, holding up her blade.
Kai grabs onto me as we all cheer for Lloyd, Camille screaming as she falls down a hole.
"No, no, no! He cheated! Lloyd loses!" Chen begins to win and argue. "No way, he won fair and square." I allow griffin to rest on my shoulder.
I sigh, "well, if Lloyd's out, so am I." Everyone stands up for Lloyd. "If Everyone is out, then what tournament would you have?"
"Fine, Form loses."
