CHAPTER 5

(A/N Sorry took so long to update coz it takes time to come up with some big ideas, It takes time to come up. Anyway this one is all about Jinmay and her companions only, so that you might know the secret to jinmay's origin)

MEETING AN OLD FRIEND IN STIXX 

Vatu's POV

We arrived at stixx in the morning and it was a long ride, Jinmay also mentioned her dream and it was exactly like the ones she described; a village built on water. That means that's where the preehiminent will strike. We just hope we find the scroll of airjitzu. We were walking across the dock, looking around. "Welcome to Stiix!" A villager greeted us from the top of a support beam."Watch your step. Oh! I caught one!" The villager said as he pulled his fishing pole towards him.We looked at each other."It's a big one." The villager said as he was about to fell but luckily Vatu was fast as he saved the villager before he was pulled into the ocean.

The villager was surpirsed by his speed as I turned to the fishing rod and forcefully reeled in the fish. The villager said to me, "Uh....wow gee thx for catching it. Man, For a boy, you sure are strong." I said with glee, "Gee thx." Rava pulled me away from there as we hastily entered the village. "Vatu we musn't attract any unnecessary attention."Rava said softly. JInmay said, "Its a shame that these people doesn't know it's going to happen here." I said, "Let's hope not, for a thief he sure picked the place to be. I mean look at it who would wanna live in this dump."Jinmay shrugged and whispered, "Vatu i wouldn't speak out loud if i were you, their looking at us." I looked around to see they are some men were staring at us.

I understood what she mean so i mentally speak through teleapathically to her, 'Let's find this Ronin guy before these guys do.'

Jinmay's POV

We searched around and avoid any attention however things don't go to well. Four men were flirting with Rava's figure and the 6 women were fawning over Vatu's face. I guess it is they're both attracting themselves. It would have been better if they disguise into their animal form. I asked the locals if they knew Ronin but no one knows. We searched every houses and shops until I stumbled a shop that was familiar. Vatu said who barely escaped from the ladies, "Phew, I can't avoid them, hey what you find?" Rava looked up and read, "Shop of Wonders, hmm....it would seem its an antique store."

Vatu wondered, "Do you think Ronin might be hiding there?" "I don't know maybe if we ask the scroll of airjitzu, we might get it."I said. As we step foot on the shop, we saw the one guy who was so desperate in buying the artifact plate. The man said, "I'll give 450 bucks how's that? Now pls let me have that ancient plate."

We turned to see that the owner of the shop was actually a girl. She has short orange hair with a spiral on one side, with goggles on her head. She's also wearing black tactical jacket on top of a light colored camouflage jacket, light colored camouflage trousers, black combat boots, And Fingerless gloves. For an owner of this shop, she sure wear outstanding outfit where all the boys fall for her

"Hmm.....an ancient plate that's worth a lot. Ok you got yourself deal."she replied as she shake his hand. He gave her a cheque and left the shop, we turned to her as she was counting money and placed into the cashier. I was impressed how she treat customers however looking at her she seems so familiar, almost like i've seen her somewhere before.

Vatu went over the counter as the girl said, "Welcome to Shop of Wonders. Can i offer you with artifacts, scrolls and weapons?" Vatu replied, "No thx we're just traveler, we were asking if you happen to know where we could find Ronin."As vatu asked, I notice the girl's eyebrow raised as if that name bothered her. She slammed her fist on the table and said, "RONIN?! YOU MEAN THAT GOOD FOR NOTHING THIEF!"

We were surprised by her frustration when we mentioned that. She turned to us, "Listen, that Ronin is a thief and i can't believe why does anyone asked me that. He's been a thorn on my side, one time I brought back a vase that was found in the forgotten temple. I was about to sold that when i notice it was gone, I looked through the security system that he stole it from me. Belive me I am not friend of his OK"Vatu said, trying to calm her down, "Woah dude chill we get it, you two don't get along and hate each other. Well, if you don't know then can you tell us where he might be."

"Sure but it'll cost you; give me 200 bucks"

"What! We don't have that kind of money. We need to find him, its important."

"Hey my shop my rules, that's a thing."

Rava reasoned, "What if we told you if the fate of the world is in danger?"

"Huh? That'll changes everything.....Make that 450 bucks."

I couldn't believe that she raised her price in exchange for information, that was crazy. "How can you say that? WE're in a very important mission right now and yet.....you still insist in price."Vatu complained. She smirked at him and said, "A price is a price, Got it memorized?"My eyes blinked when i heard those words.

FLASHBACK

"Sheesh, next time don't get caught. I told you before, didn't i?" she reached out her hand to me. "Got it Memorized?"

END OF FLASHBACK

I began to realized who she is. SOmeone who i known a long time ago, an old friend. I have to be sure if its her.

"Look if you don't want to buy something then leave my shop"She said. Vatu said, "MAYBE we will, C'mon guys let's leave this place."I went over to the counter and Vatu gave me the what-heck look. She turned to me and said, "I know what your thinking, if your trying something to change my mind. THink again, I don't do take backs"

"I guess your still the same as always, don't you think?....Haru"

Vatu and Rava were anxious when i called her name, even the girl. She demand, "OK who told you that and where did you hear that? Just for the record, I am the greatest master retriever. Who retrieve artifacts, relics, and scrolls. They call me....."

"Hunter Blaze.....yeah you changed your name a long time ago."

"who are you exactly and how did you know me?"

"Simple.....you told me that Haru, remember? "

"I don't believe you.....I don't know who and where you hear that. If your not here to buy then get out."

As she turned her back at me, I knew she doesn't remember me so i thought maybe this will refresh her memory. I took a deep breathe and sang a song.

(chorus)

When the sky is a bliss,

I'll spread my wings and fly up high.

when the ocean waves, beneath the shore.

it was a beautiful wish on that blue island then you will find

the world is filled with love and hope.

Na na na na na

na na naahh naahh

She stopped when she heard that song somewhere from her memories. She turned to me and said, "That song......" I answered, "That's a song i sang to you back in Iona Village. Remember? I sang this song when your feeling down."She looked at me carefully at my face then her eye's widened when she finally recognized me. "No freakin way Ji--JInmay, Is that you?"

"Hey Haru long time no see, It's been awhile."

She gave me excited look, "OMG! JINMAY!" she yelled. "woah wait---oof" I said as she ran over to hug me which made us fell onto the ground."It's good to see you again," I happily greeted, returning the hug. She pulled away from the hug, "I can't believe it's you and Wow look at you your big, how did this happen?" Hunter said who was speechless. "It's a long story actually. Haru" I assured to her. "Hey I still have time, HOld on let me close the shop first and FYI its HUnter to you I told you many times to call me that."She said as she get up and closed the shop. I explained everything to her about my journey and my mission. "So that's explain.....you were caught by the tomorrows tea which made you big and what's with the outfit. oh wait...let me guess your the purple ninja" Hunter said. "Actually she's a shinobi." Vatu corrected her

"ANd I see you got new friends....since i wasn't around. What happen to your crow and the wolf"Hunter said. I sighed and explained to her that those two are actually spirit guardians and they were the animal forms. Hunter gave me a disbelief look and said, "NO way those two were.......no wonder why they're attached to you so that would mean...."

"Yeah.......I'm a master of spirit or rather a Spirit master."

"that's why you have the ability to sense spirits, I thought it was just legend of the spirit master who travels many realms but this....it came true. I can't believe your the master of spirits so what else can you do?"

"Oh you know......control elements like water, fire, earth, air, lighting and ice."

"So that makes you an elemental master, right?"

"Well......probably."

Rava reminded, "It was a nice reunion but for now we nee to get down to business. Do you know where Ronin is? Hunter"

"UM yeah about that......you see I lied."

Vatu said, "What!? I thought you know where he might."

"I only said that just to peeved the customer whenever they asked me where ROnin is. Beside, He and i don't get along very much, we're rivalry."

I said, "That would explain but we need to find the scroll of airjitzu before the reckoning. Even the ninjas might be looking for it too."

"Airjitzu? Isn't that a forgotten move similar to spinjitzu? The abilty to give you flight."

"You know about it?!"

Hunter explained, "Of course, From i read about it that was an old teaching that belong to a master; Sensei Yang. I heard that his teaching were strict he even teaches his students in a harsh way just to sharpen their skills." "Woah that's some strict teacher, remind me of Rava."Vatu said humor however Rava disagree by his sarcasm. "May i ask? Who are the ninjas and why do you need it?"We explained about the ninjas whom we are helping them secretly without letting them know and the reckoning of the preehiminent coming to Stixx pretty soon. Hunter thought we were kidding but we weren't kidding around. Hunter said with disbelief, "This is serious.....If that happens, it'll be the end of the world. No wonder you've been helping the ninjas without letting them know who you are."

"Yeah i can only tell them when that the time comes but not yet coz I'm not ready to reveal myself."

Hunter lowered her head and pondered why is my face looked depressed until Vatu interuppted, "I hate to say this but.....we haven't got time, right now we should find the scroll and save Lloyd."Hunter question with a curious look, "Who's Lloyd?"

"He"Rava replied, as she created an illusion. Jinmay looked away, she couldn't see it, not now, it was a perfect replica. His blonde hair, his skin, his eyes, and that innocent smile of his. "Wait.....isn't he the green ninja who defeated the dark lord. Unbelievable!! What happened to him?"Hunter asked. JInmay replied, "He's been possessed by a ghost from the cursed realm "

"Wait.....did you say ghost from the cursed realm? Isn't the cursed realm is a realm filled with bad sinners."

"yeah, that's why my duty as the master of spirit is to prevent the preehiminent from cursing all 16 realms."

"Cursing 16 realms?! That's diabolical.....So who is this ghost anyway?"

I was about to say it but Rava said it for me, "Morro.....the master of wind." She also showed the image of the possesed lloyd. Hunter looked closely and recognize the amor he's wearing. "Hey that armor.....Isn't that the Allied Armor of Azure? Shouldn't that be in the museum?"

Rava questioned, "YOu know about it?"

"Know it? I was the one who retrieve that artifact from another ruin. The museum currator hired me to retrieve that and sell it."

"You sold that to the museum......you do know it can summon his allied ghost from the cursed realm, It was a dangerous artifact"

"How am I suppose to know?! that the armor can do that......"

Vatu said, "Which is why we need to find Ronin and get the scroll." "I wish I could help more but i had no idea where he's hiding....."Hunter said, which gave us a disappointed look. "But there is another way......"she added. We stared at her as she continued, "Do you remember when i talked about Sensei Yang? There is a chance to get another scroll. THere's this temple that belong to him maybe you might find it but there's a catch.....it's haunted."

Vatu stuttered, "Did you say.....Haunted?"

"yeah, they say his spirit still lives on inside the temple, roaming and waiting for someone whoever enters the temple. No one has ever left the temple or seen anyone inside."

Rava said, "WHat do you think happen?"

"Well, i do know is that there's a curse, if don't leave the temple till dawn......you'll turn into a ghost."

We were aghast when she mentioned the cursed. I turned to my guardians, sine they were already cursed so maybe they might be immune. I mean Vatu was a ghost before but for Rava's case....she said she has seen that symbol and yet she can't recall her other memories, I wonder it has something to with airjitzu. I said, "OK then we must head to the temple of sensei yang for his wisdom." Vatu said, "Woah woah there didn't you hear what hunter said? Anyone goes there becomes a ghost. Not only that you weren't able to unlock your true potential or even summon a power dragon."

"I know but its the only way we might obtained another scroll, its better than finding the crook."

Vatu and Rava stared at each other and had no choice as they agreed to her. Rava said, "very well then however we know that the preehiminent might strike here so....leaving stixx unattended might be defenseless. We need a place to stay here if we were able to come back."I never thought about that until Hunter thoughtfully said, "If your giong to save this world, I can let you stay here in my shop until your return."

"Really HUnter?"

"of course your my best friend, remember no matter what happens, i'll always be at your side. That's what best friends are for."

"Hunter i don't how to thank you..."

"Ahem.....I'm not finished. However, i need one of you to remain here to help me in my shop. After all, you guys are heading to the temple, you can't all go together i need one here to be with me and don't bother choosing. I'll be the one to decide who stays....."

"Huh?! Since when...."

"My rules, my shop......Got it memorized?"

I was kinda peeved by her behavior yet she is my best friend from a long time ago and i owe her my life for being with me. "Ok whatever you say take your pick...."I asked when hunter turn her eyes on Vatu. "I'll take......the white wolf. He's strong, fast and attract other customers so he stays."Hunter declared. Vatu said with a disbelief, "What!! No way why do i have to be the one? Why can't Rava?"she replied, "Simple, she's too quiet and her cold glare might scared off the customer."Vatu was about to protest however Rava advises, "It's ok Vatu I think its best that i should go with mistress. This sensei and the scroll might be the key to my answer."

"What made you think that temple might be answer?"

"BEcoz i might discove who i am and why do i recognize the airjitzu symbol."

Vatu and I thought about it, Rava was begining to discover who she is and regain her memories so for that Vatu gave up. "Alright alright fine.....but you guys have better be back coz i don't want to be stuck in the village of water with a thief girl."

"I heard that."Hunter barked. "Actaully i'm not a thief......i am called the Master Retriever. Once a thief before now a retriever."i gave an optimistic look and said, "Since when did you became....a retriever."

"Ever since I stopped being a thief and was banished from Iona Village."

"Oh......Sorry I didn't mean to...."

"Don't be......beside i found my own interest; that is retrieving treasures around the world. I get to travel and have many adventures, including dangers"

"You always like extreme dangers do you?"

"That's right."

I smiled at her that she has changed a lot, well partly that is. Rava said, "MIstress we must go, Our path has been set."I nodded as i raised my arm and opened a portal. Hunter was amazed by my ability, "Woah i heard about this.....you can open portals and travel to any realms or places. If that's true, maybe you and I can go on a business together."She complimented.

"Thx but i have one noble duty and a mission to fulfill, I can only portals for teleporting."

"i understand....I was hoping we go adventure but you have a destiny to fulfill."

We hug each other for a minute then pulled away. Hunter said, "Take care yourself."I turned to Vatu and said, "Vatu, make sure you stay and help hunter."Vatu groaned, "YEah i know i know the fate of the world is in trouble and i get to be stuck with her."

"C'mon Vatu It'll be ok when you get to know her."

"Whatever you say jinmay......oh and pls be careful in there and don't become a ghost. And make sure we keep in touch."

"Uh vatu I'll be fine and believe me.....I won't become a ghost, I'll keep in touch."

Rava and I turned to the portal, Rava notice i was shuddering a bit. She placed her hand on my shoulder and spoke telepathically, 'do not worry mistress, i assure you you'll be alright. I will be right beside you i promise.' I took a deep breathe and smiled, 'Thx Rava and don't you worry I'll get your memories back.' As we proceed into the portal heading to Sensei Yang's Haunted Temple.

VAtu POV

As they left, I stayed with hunter helping the shops and i guess she choose me wisely coz i did attract everyone's attention, even the girls are fawning over me. After that, I turned to see Hunter fixing the machine in her shop which i did not notice that. I looked around and i hate to admit.......she really is good at hunting treasures and artifacts. She even had a trophy and awards too....I guess she must be busy. While i was looking till it caught my attention; I saw a picture of Jinmay who was just a kid before while Hunter was older than her. I stared at it and smiled until Hunter spoke behind me, "You know its not polite to stare at someon's belongings." I was startled as she chuckled at me.

"haha very funny.....you two look happy together."

"yeah it was my happy times then all those time has passed since i was exiled. I was so adventurous girl who happens to love thrilled excitement and danger."

"huh.....i can relate that.....So what's your story between you two?"

"EVer since my father passed away, he left me this grapple gun as a memory. I was homeless and have no place to go so I began stealing things for my survival."

"Woah wait you were stealing.....man you sure commit a crime for a thief."

"yeah i know i was caught by officers many times but now i don't know what to do until i heard rumors about the Valley of the Mist that is beside Hiroshi labyrinth after my father. They told me it was sacred place however people disappear when anyone enters the fog becomes spirited away. I was wondered if i might find something valuable in there to steal so i venture there. Many people told me not to but i couldn't take the chance. It was so foggy and hard to see when i try to search further until i tripped and twisted ankle. I couldn't move as i was on the verge of losing hope."

"Oh yeah that would explain why you were found lying outside the gate. Which turns out people weren't spirited away but taken in. I remember we found you and take you in with us. When you discovered the valley has a hidden village that will never be found."

"YEah the people in Iona Village looked at me as if i was an outcast. They put me in the cage to ensure that i am a threat or not. I told them that I was homeless and had no place to go. The elder came and let me remained there until they decide to let me go. I was trapped like mice and i couldn't get out. Most of the kids were making fun of me and they even toss tomatoes at me. I was a bit saddened that nobody accept me.....nobody except one."

"You mean......jinmay huh."

"Yeah when i first met her, I notice the kids were treating her as though she was an outcast and were afraid to go near her, she was the same as me unlike the others. I was surprised that she was the first person whoever speak to me and not only that she generously give me food. No one has ever treated me before when i was back in Ninjago."

"I guess she was the one that changed your life....."

"When the elders saw this, he let me out of the cage and decide to let me stay. However, I was about to steal some in the village. Jinmay appeared and seem to attached to me. I realize she had no friends so I played along just know] more about the Village. Then i realize she has the power to see spirits and led me to the misty forest. It was amazing like fireflies. I thought i fooled her in becoming a friend when i stole vase from the elders. Until the villagers caught me and they were planing to give me a severe punishment."

"SO you lied to her just to be her friend...."

"I did...that's when something happen, Jinmay stepped in and defended me. They accused me for stealing but Jinmay said that the vase has a poisonous snake in there and i planned to get rid of it. Nobody believed her when I accidently dropped the vase, revealing a poisonous snake. Everyone was shocked when they saw the snake, even i did. The elder thanked me for saving him and everyone began to like me. Whenever i did something wrong became right everytime jinmay was around."

"Even though you did bad deeds but.....jinmay can see good heart from you."

"Yeah thats why I realize she's been protecting me and helping me. She knew from the begining i was pretending but deep down she wanted a friend. I was glad that I was happy she was there for me and that's why I gave up in stealing. So here i am, I'm a master retriever searching for adventures."

I stared at her when I notice she was smiling proudly that it was Jinmay's kindness that changed her. Now i know why she cares for jinmay coz both of them felt the same way. "I'm glad she's been there for you.....Maybe your not so bad after all."I said to her. Hunter turned to me and said, "Reall gee thx I appreciate it. Now, do me a favor and help me carry these boxes to the room. All of them."I looked at the boxs which is too many. I said disbelief, "What I can't carry all that its too many. Can't you help me?"

"Sorry.....if you want to stay here, you need to get things done. Got it memorized?"She said as she happily start counting her money. I rolled my eyes and threw my arms in the air as I started carrying the boxes. "I stand corrected.....she has a bad side."I groaned 'I hope you came back soon JInmay.'

AT THE TEMPLE ON HAUNTED HILL

(A/N Just to let you know, The ninjas were still in Stixx trying to steal the scroll from Ronin while Jinmay and Rava were in Sensei Yang temple ahead. They got there first before the ninjas.)

Jinmay's POV

We arrived at Sensei Yang's temple which is already night time. I'm kinda bit scared when i stared at the temple and how creepy it is. Looking at it made me chilled I wondered if the curse is real or not, I just hope we get out of there safely. I turned to Rava which surprises me, she looked so calm but her eyes somehow was filled with fear. Could it be she frightened?

I asked, "Rava are you ok? You look kinda pale." Rava shook her head and answered, "Forgive me mistress its just that.....I had a feeling whatever inside is making me feel......uncomfortable. I do not know why im feeling it."

"Maybe this place might be connected to you somehow. Whatever it is, It might help us find the scroll."

"Or regain my lost memories......Are u sure mistress? Once we enter, can't turn back."

"*Deep breath* Well.... here goes nothing are you ready?"

"As ready i am, MIstress."

Rava placed her hand on the doorknob and chanted,

By the power of the wind and the sky

Bend my will and become my strength

UNlock the Door so we can through

The door was opened as we entered inside, it was a bit dusty and yet so empty. Once we were inside, the door closed behind us. I shrugged that it scared me that it must be probably closed by itself. We wandered through the Temple, looking around and i hate to say this but now i know whats it like without dusting. We opened the room that led us somekind of room where there's the clock and some books, even the creepy picture of Sensei Yang. Rava said, "this must be his study room where likes to read book?" I turned to her with surprised, "How do you know about that?"

"I.....just do, Mistress." as she stared through the book shelves. I wondered could it be Rava really been to this temple before. She must have a purpose/ a promise somehow just like how Vatu fulfilled his promise. WHat did she promise anyway?

While my mind was wandering That's when Rava walked next to me, holding a book. "Listen to this!" She said and cleared her throat as she read it to me."It says here, though many believe Sensei Yang's unusually strict teachings drove his students away, others admit to never seeing any of them leave the temple grounds." Rava read. "Suggesting a more sinister plot." SHe said with a curiosity."How strange is that?"

"Not strange, not even a little. I wondered why no one has ever left the temple." I stated."There's more....Yang was hard on his pupils for a reason. For in his words, as iron sharpens iron, Sensei sharpens student." rava continued."Hm...I wonder what it means by that." I said. "I do not know mistress, i think those words has something to do with a test."Rava assured.

"I guess....now there's a problem how are we suppose to find Sensei Yang in here? He could be anywhere"

"Mistress, Why don't you try sensing him? You can locate him."

I took her word for it as I used the eye to help me find him however I felt an eerie spirit then my eyes flashed green a bit when i sense Sensei Yang was around us or rather evrywhere. I clenched onto my head feeling pain that he essence was too strong for me to locate him. Rava asked worriedly, "Mistress are you alright?" "Yeah Somehow Sensei Yang able to hide his presence and he is somewhere around here."I said.

"Be wary mistress we do not know what he's capable of."As We went out and wandered through the hallway.

Rava's POV

We walked around the hallway and I notice that every rooms looked farmiliar almost like I've been here before. I do not understand then i realized i might began to recalled everything just like how Vatu recalled his about the anacondrai. I stared at her to see that she seems troubled by her mission and whether she can handle it.

She doesn't seem to be ready when she's going to face the reckoning if I can't find out her weakness. She hasn't awaken her true potential since the past days, at this rate she won't be able to be a full-fledge master. As I looked around, I caught sight of a mysterious figure in the shadow. I glanced at jinmay, Seeing that I continued to move forward, I silently headed over to the figure."Hello?"

"Why, hello I'm glad to see you again."

"Lady Zecora?! Is that you?" I asked, surprised recognizing the voice.She didn't respond and suddenly dashed away."Zecora, wait!" I called out as I ran after the figure.

JInmay's POV

I heard rava's voice as I turned around to see that Rava ran off. I went after her, wondering what she saw. As i turned to my left, I notice she's gone and I was left alone. I glanced around if i can find Rava again, I felt scared being left behind almost like shadows were about to get me. I shook my head, 'C'mon JInmay snap out of it, don't let them get to you. Your not a kid anymore'I thought to myself. Then, I saw the doorknobs began to move behind me. I grabbed my shimu staff to ready myself as i slowly opened the door to reveal...an empty room. Well, almost empty. "Hello mistress!" Rava greeted happily from inside. "Well, that was anticlimactic. What are you doing here? Were you the one moving the doorknobs?" I asked puzzled as i walked inside.

Rava laughed a bit. "Yes, that was me. I got lost and ended up in this room. I tried to get out by I guess it was locked." I nodded at her with a strange look as I looked around the room. "This must be Sensei Yang's Dojo...... So This is where he trained his pupils." Kai observed. "Or...got rid of them.." Rava added, a bit eerie. I stared at her and wondered why is she talking like that, not only that she's smiling. Too creepy smile. Its just I never see Rava so happy before......She's suppose to be calm and open-minded where nothing distracts her. I had a feeling that something is not right about this. As I continued to look until a voice was heard. "As iron sharpens iron, Sensei sharpens student."

I shuddered when I heard the voice, I knew it was the ghost of Sensei Yang. " what does he mean by sharpen?" I asked myself as I looked back to see Rava swing her sword at me which I manage to doge. I looked at her and saw her black, soulless eyes staring at me with a smile. She held a sword in her hand. "You wanna find out?" She asked evilly. I said, "Rava what are you doing?"

"Nothing I just want to see you beg for life."

I ran out of the room while Rava chased me down. "Aw...come on, I just want to play with you guys! Would you like to check out my sword? It's really nice and sharp~!" I don't know whats gotten into her, she would never hurt me. I continued to run until I found a shut window. Rava was getting close to me followed by bats. 'great I'm caged in like animals!'I exclaimed as I tried to open the window but i t won't budge. I turned to Rava now stood a few feet in front of me. Her dark soulless eyes looked directly at me along with a sinister grin. Her sword that looked to have blood on it was raised, ready to strike. "There you are my precious little toy~"

"Rava why are you doing this to me?"I asked trying to hide my fear. "Why? Simple I hate you coz you couldn't find your inner self."She answered with a crazy laugh. My inner self? What did she mean? I looked around to find another way until I saw a dumbwaiter so I hastily went over there and head down. Rava took a step forward, looking as if she was going to follow me but was stopped when a figure appeared in front of her."Don't go after her. I want you to go back to the room where she first at." Rava nodded and bowed. "Yes, Master..."

______________________________________________________________________________

JInmay let out a sigh of relief. She finally made it back inside after discovering that was trapped inside a ethereal inter-dimensional realm. "So, there's no way out of the Haunted Temple but at least all the commotion has died down. Well only one thing to do."Jinmay said as she head back to the room. "I can do this, I'll just to get through the night. Show Yang I'm not scared but without Rava I feel alone, if only Vatu is here with me."

Rava chuckled quietly as she watched her from the shadows."HUh...what was that?" Jinmay asked, looking around. The psychotic guardian immediately went quiet as the sound of a bell was heard, causing the her to let out a frightened scream."I-It's just a clock. I'm not afraid of time...but I'm afraid of not getting out in time. NO stop I can do this, I'm not a child anymore. I have to keep my emotions steady."JInmay said. She took a deep breathe hoping to let go of her fears. She thought about her situation the time she was in trouble and her companions rescued her but now no one will come and save her. She wondered if she ever find her true potential, since she's has no idea what's holding her. Then she noticed the painting was moving, walked over to the painting and looked closely. To her surprise, the water from the painting began to pour out from it. She head to the door and was now trying to open it. "Great It's locked!"SHe exclaimed.

"As iron sharpens iron, Sensei sharpen student."

"Oh great, back for round two!" Jinmay cried out as the room filled with water as drown underwater. She resurface and currently holding onto a plank in an attempt to stay over water. "I thought it might be my head but this water taste so real."JInmay said. Suddenly, Rava appeared on the plank. "Aw, why thank you. I try!" Jinmay let out a scream. "You're doing this?!"She stared at Jinmay with her soulless black eyes. "Of course I am. I want to see you drown."she responded. She couldn't let water stop her from getting the airjitzu. So she took a deep breathe and went underwater as tried to open the door but it wouldn't budge. She was about to used her water power until she saw her past self the time where Lloyd was sinking underwater (from enter digiverse) trying to save him then she noticed her past self was staring at her in spiritual state as she created a water wave at JInmay causing a whirlpool. Luckily, she managed to open the door before she was pulled in and was pushed outside.

Rav growled as she watched the jinmay flow away with the water. "She got away, Master..."

"Don't worry my servant, we will get her soon but there is another way for her..."

JINMAy gasped for air and wondered why she is seeing the version of herself in spiritual state. She remembered the time where she couldn't control her powers since she was a child. One time she almost destroyed the buildings and people around her. Not only that having the thought losing Lloyd would have been frightening, it was horrified for her to make mistakes. Right now, she failed to save Lloyd from being possesed she had no idea whether if she is ready to be a spirit master. She was scared that she might not be able to do it. She began to doubt herself if she is worthy to be.

Rava was watching her as she began to cast an illusion around the hallway. Jinmay notice the background began to changed as she turned to see Rava who has a sinister smile. She saw was about to be engulfed inside the illusion. Rava said, "enjoy your blast from the past"As she disappeared in the abyss.

JInmay regained conscious as she was standing in the mountain, around her is filled with rocks and boulders. She looked for a way out but she never felt alone all her life and scared too. Suddenly, she saw someone she called out to the person when the figure attacked by tossing a sharp blade. Jinmay saw it as she dodged the attack, the blade was plunged into the air and went back to its attacker. Jinmay recognized that weapon as it morphed back into a staff, "Wait a minute...thats the silver staff that i used before but why is it?..."As she looked carefully until her face drained when she saw the figure; her shadow but her eyes were glowing like in spiritual state. "wait...that's me?! Why was i...?"JInmay said.

Her shadow charged at her and blast her with fire. She flinched as she used water to deflect it when her shadow appeared before her. She was kicked ad skidded on the ground. Jinmay looked at her shadow as she put away her silver staff and used strong wind which Jinmays shielded her arms. Somehow the image appeared in her mind recalled the time where Pythor and Scale try to take control of her until she used her power went out of control. JInmay felt her chest was beating in fear, she doesn't want to go through that. She did Spinjitzu to defeat her but her shadow manage to dodge it. Jinmay stared at her when her eye's widened; her double did spinjitzu as well. Jinmay thought, 'She can do Spinjitzu too!!' she was hit by her attack as she struggle to stand up.

"Tell me......"

She heard a voice as she looked it was her shadow was speaking to her. "Tell me.....what is it your afraid of?"her shadow questioned. She had no idea what she meant but for some reason it's the shadow wanted find out about herself. Her shadow then used earth to grabbed Jinmay. She struggled trying to break free, again she saw another image again this time where Chen gave advice to her. Telling her that let power control her before she control it. Last time she let her bloodlust get to her when she tried to harm two guards. She shooked her head and shouted, "Stop it.....that's in the past, a past I won't make."She used her earth power to break free from its grasp. "I'll find the scroll......then save Lloyd."Jinmay said. Her shadow looked at her with serious look.

Her shadow replied, "Liar.....you don't care about him or Ninjago. You cared about only yourself. "Jinmay blinked at her and said, "What?.....what are you talking about? Of course I do."

"You were just lying to yourself, I know you.....coz I am you and you are me. Your dark mirror self. I know your thoughts better than you do."

She was surprised of what her shadow said to her. Her shadow morphed her staff into a sword and Jinmay did the same thing in order to defend herself but she was pushed back. They clashed their sword at each other, they stared at each other on the face. Her shadow said, "EVerything we fought for the things we did and yet.....Its never an ending. No matter what we do......It won't change a thing. We may be a spirit master but to them we're still a cursed witch and always will be. We always keep running from reality and refused to accept it."SHe was taken back by her shadow until her shimu sword was slipped onto the other side. Her shadow then wrapped her in water and began to freeze her from bottom to top. Jinmay couldn't move and she tried to break free until it reached her face. "Tell me....what is it your afraid of?"her shadow asked repeatedly.

Jinmay was floating in the darkness, she wondered what she was afraid of. She curled into a ball and couldn't bear to hold it in. SHe realized she was trying to be brave but deep down she was scared. Until she recalled back all the past events and it was tragic. She was called as a cursed witch, couldn't control her powers when she had gone to spiritual state, used her bloodlust to harm others, trying to save someone but couldn't save one of them and finally she failed to help lloyd even when he was in despair. Jinmay's memories really pains her.

"Tell me....what is it your afraid of?"a voice echoed through the darkness until it grew louder and louder until JInmay had enough and admittedly shouted, "I'm afraid of......making mistakes and losing someone."Jinmay eyes widened realizing herself as she stood up finally figure it out. "I was afraid of making mistakes......I try intervene fate but turn the outcome for the worst. I couldn't bear to lose anyone even my friends."Jinmay said to herself. "All this time I've been running and been calling as a cursed witch all my life. However, I'm no longer that person I know who I am. I am Jinmay ENder, the master of spirit."Her body began to glow as she was freed from the ice. Her shadow was surprised when she got out safely. Jinmay panted heavily as she looked towards her mirror self.

"I wanted to change my fate but I don't want to change for who i was I scared that you'll forget who you are......is it not wrong to change?"her shadow said looking scared.

Jinmay said breathing heavily, "I know your reason....but there are people who changed. I know your scared to change for who you are but it will still hurt."

"Then.....tell me do you want to change? Even if it means abandoning the past and the mistakes. Will you shine?"

"I do.....but Those memories, those feelings, those mistakes and through hardships it is what made us of who we are. Everyone is part of it as well, even Lloyd and It's ok to be afraid even I'm lying to myself or pretend. Someone once told me walk the path you believe in and live your life to the fullest, and i know you will not go astray. I believe I will shine brightly within me. I won't run anymore I'll just keep on going into the future"

There was silenced as Jinmay walked towards herself and extend her hand. "I may be different today.....but those memories will always be a part of me. Even you"Jinmay said with a smile. Her shadow smiled back at her and said, "I won't disappear but I'll still live on..."Jinmay nodded as her shadow made the silver staff dissipate and took her hand then all of sudden the shadow began to glow. The energy went into Jinmay's body as she was glowing as her eyes show bright purple. She summoned all the elements; water, fire, earth, wind, ice and lighting. It formed around her then finally she convert the elements into spiritual lights summoning  her very own POwer dragon. SHe had finally found her potential.

JInmay's POV

After that, I opened them till my powers were calmed, I was no longer in the mountains I guess I broke through the illusion. I stared at my hands that I couldn't believe I've awakened my own power dragon. I noticed I wasn't in the hall way anymore I was in some sort of attic. I turned around to see Rava facing the wall and stood there as if she was waiting for me. I went closer to touched her when I jumped back due to her sudden disappearance. Out of nowhere, Sensei Yang appeared before me not only that I saw him holding a barely unconscious Rava. "As iron sharpens iron, Sensei sharpens student. You have passed the test..." I was about to asked about Rava as he answered, "At ease child of ender, Your friend is safe.....I only needed her to be part of it as well."He placed her into my arms as I caught her.

"Then those tests.....you...?"

"Yes.....you have found your true potential by admitting yourself to be afraid, you've been holding onto your burden for too long. When you reached your lowest point, you were opened to one mind and faced it."

"That's why....you were trying to help me. T-Then you'll teach me how to do Airjitzu?"

"Those who see things through we meet their benefits of their reward...however I cannot give it to you"

"What? Why? How am i suppose to learn airjitzu technique?"

"You already had.....*he pointed at Rava* the technique lies within her."

I gasped as I stared at unconscious Rava wondering that she knew airjitzu. I looked up and asked, "You know Rava?" Sensei Yang stared at her and said, "Rava? So she had a new name unlike the previous one."

"Previous?.....You know Rava's true name."

"I cannot give you the answer but I can give what you need."he held out a strange white big feather and gave it to me. "Give this to her only when she wakes up."all of a sudden he began to glow. I don't know why then I remembered what hunter said, its almost dawn."The new dawn is upon us...get out before the clock's chime if you can that is!"

I was about to leave the attic before I hear Sensei Yang said something else, "I'm so glad I get to meet my favorite student and my old friend......Farewell spirit master."Later, I manage to got out of the temple before the last chime and it was dawn already. I dropped on the ground causing Rava to fell out of my arm. She opened her eyes when she felt something hit her. She sat up and looked around then at me confuse. Rava wondered, "Mistress.....what happen? How did we end up outside?"Poor Rava she had no idea that Sensei Yang was controlling her. 

"Perhaps we should explained somewhere else right now I want to be away from this scary temple."I said feeling spooked. We moved far away from the temple (A/N thats where the ninjas arrived at the temple by tour bus, they had no idea Jinmay and Rava already left) and entered the forest. I explained everything about what happened in there and revealed a white feather to her. "He said 'the technique to airjitzu lies in you.' I don't know what he meant but he told me to give this. I have no idea what it was and why he wanted me to give this to you."I said.

Rava stared at it for second then her eyebrow raised as if she recognized it. "Mistress, that is no feather...that is a quill." I blinked at her, "Uh quill?

"It is used for writing with an ink, it was meant for books or scrolls."h

"Wow i had no idea, but don't you think its way past modern."

"Strange where have I seen that somewhere before?..."She said curiosity as she reached for the quill then all of a sudden it began to glow. My eyes are getting heavier all of a sudden so was Rava. I tried to keep myself awake until consciousness has slipped away

Glimpse of the Past

Flashback  

I opened my eyes and notice that I was no longer in the forest or Ninjago, I was in the clouds on the sky. Not only that I was in astral form where no one can't see me and Rava was nowhere to be seen. I looked up ahead and saw not only clouds but there were watchtowers everywhere, there's even a floating boat and they're people dressed in somekind of robe I think. Its a good thing I'm in astral form as I had look around and searched for Rava. That's when I found Rava standing on the chained bridge, I was relief to see her as I run to her.

When I got closer, I notice she looks different that she wasn't in her archer suit but in some kind of white tunic robe and her hair was hair braided crown with a quill on the left side just like what sensei yang gave me. 'Is that Rava? But why is she dressed like that? ' I wondered. The monk in robe who was walking passed by and saw her, "Oh still staring at the sky, you know you won't get merits for that apprenticeship ,Sinha."I said surprised, "Sinha, so that's her true name.....huh its much similar than Sahone. Why is it showing me this....unless this quill must be Rava's memories? Maybe if I watched a bit longer, I might find out how it happened and the technique of airjitzu."Rava/Sinha turned around and smiled, its my first seeing her gentle face. "My apologise, I wasn't staring at the skies I was recalling all the studies to understand more about realms."

"Oh ho ho ho I see I'm glad you are learning and I believe you might pass this."

"Yes I'm proud to have a great mentor to be his apprentice even though I'm the only female here in Cloud Kingdom."

"I see......Oh that reminds me, you better bring those scrolls to the master writer. You don't want him to keep him waiting."

Rava/Sinha eye's widened as she took the scroll and head to the tower. I didn't know she was the only girl in Cloud kingdom, I guess they're all men here. I followed her to the tower coz I wanted to know who is this Master Writer. We head to the stairs and entered inside, they're so many scrolls everywhere and there so many writers too. I was so amazed they were people here. I saw a man in white robe along with another man beside him. The young man said, "Well sinha pleasure to see you again."Rava/Sinha replied, "thank you Fenwick" (FYI Fenwick was young before he became the new master writer) the Master writer stared at them and she said, "here are the scrolls, master writer."He said, "Good pls place them on the shelves."They said unison, "Yes, Master writer."I watched as they placed them in order. The master writer reminded, "you must be careful, remember these scrolls contains fate and destiny of all realms. Where we writers of the cloud kingdom must write the people's destiny"I said curious, "So this is called Cloud Kingdom.....and scrolls contains people destiny. So they're job is to write and alter people's destiny. Then, this must be one of the realms."

The monk in robe whispered to the Master writer as he nodded and turned to them, "My apprentice, come you have other things to do."They bowed as they followed the master writer. I watched Rava/Sinha how she worked hard, studying and how people trusted her. She was so self organized, hard-working, calm and discipline. I was geting bored watching all these scenes. After that, she was on the boat sailing across the sky much to my surprise. She was reading a book that came from the library when interrupted by Fenwick. "Still reading....aren't you?"he said. Rava/Sinha turned to Fenwick, "Yes I'm inspire how they were other realms than here. I need to learn and understand more about fates and destiny. I suggest you do the same thing it might help, Fenwick."

"Who needs learning and understanding where you can think for yourself? If I'm going to become the next master writer, I should think about getting merits."

"Fenwick, theres so many things to discover, without understanding all knowledge will be lost."

"She's right y'know..."the voice said. They turned to the 3 monks with robe and one of them was a young monk said, "Beside it is part of being the writer....." Rava/Sinha looked and greeted, "Hello shiro, good to see you."

the 2nd monk said, "You should take her example, Fenwick."Fenwick humped, "right, I have you know that I'm better than she is. Beside the more she keeps learning about realms, she might get distracted. She'll never get merits for that just becoz she's the only girl here. She'll never become a Master Writer, only a man can" I was gaped by the fact that Rava was the only female in that realm. As we landed, she watched as Fenwick left the boat before the monks got off. Rava/Sinha sighed whether Fenwick was right that she spend so much time reading and learning all about the realms. Shiro assured, "Don't listen to him I i believe you can do it after all your hard work inspired us to do our best becoz you have faith." Rava/Sinha said calmly, "Thx shiro but I wasn't trying to reach merits, I was only fulfilling my duty."The 3 monks stared at each other and understand her as they left. Shiro asked, "Where are you going now?" 

"I'm heading to the towers to arrange them, they're lots of things to do."

"I see.....don't worry I'm pretty sure you'll get the hanged of it. You'll do a great job."

"I appreciate that shiro...."

Later, Rava/Sinha were looking through the scrolls arranging them in order. She finished as she was about to leave when accidentally bumped into tower of scrolls. It was scattered as she picked them up so it won't get mixed up. That's when I couldn't help quite notice that Rava/Sinha saw something that is not like the other scrolls and it said 'spiritual worlds.' She picked up and unrolled it revealing two spiritual realms; the cursed realm and the spirit realm.

I peered over Rava/Sinha neck to see that they're 2 pictures; it looked liked a female with butterflies from the spirit realm while the other looked like a green blob with tentacles i think from the cursed realm. Then, it jumped me to conclusion and said to myself, "That must be Zecora and the other must be the preehimenent, I wonder if every scrolls contains destiny then why there's no Zecora's name in it."I felt someone is behind me and turned to see that the Master Writer was behind her. The master writer said to Rava/Sinha, "Ah.....still curious about other realms." Rava/Sinha was startled when she saw him as she stood up holding the scroll. "Master Writer....I didn't know your there, you must forgive me.....I didn't mean to."

"No need to apologise, I know you wanted to learn them but these scrolls are not meant to be read. However, I am inspired how you worked hard. May I have that?"

"Here sir......May I ask? I don't want to be rude but Who is this spirit master?"

"Oh a very observant question.....Why do you want to know?"

"Its just they're 16 realms and yet there's the spirit realm, shouldn't that make that 17? And I wanted to know who was that lady?"

The master writer stared at her and saw a curiosity look on her face. He was inspired that how she wanted to learn more about realms and destiny. He gave a demure look and said, "Very well....you must promise that you won't tell anyone that I told you."Rava/Sinha nodded at her and he explained, "its true they were 16 realm but this one is special you see two realms are like yin and yang, light and shadow. The cursed realm was ruled by the preehiminent for those committed crimes while the spirit realm was ruled by the very first existence....Zecora, The spirit master."

"The spirit master?......I never heard of her but she looks similar to the spinjitzu master, the one who created Ninjago."

"yes....however the spinjitzu master and the spirit master shared attributes. You see not only Zecora has spiritual power but she can travel through 16 realms."

"How...was that possible? Wouldn't that affect her destiny and the other realms if she left the spirit realm ?"

The master writer notice Rava/Sinha curiosity raised and said, "Sinha....would you mind grabbed that empty scroll, quill and ink?"Rava/Sinha was confused why he requested as she did what he instructed. "I want you to write her name."the master writer said. She wrote Zecora on the scroll until it was burned. I was shocked that the scroll just burned itself. "She had no destiny, she creates her own destiny and it was her duty as the spirit master to guide the lost souls. The spirit realm is the source of our life and the other realms"The master writer stated. She was astound about the spirit master. "where do you think the spirit master might be?"She asked.

"No one knows they say they often saw her visiting Ninjago and she often visit here."

"She came here? Master writer.....what did she come here for?"

The master writer gestured to follow him as they started walking out of the temple. I followed them wondering where they're going. We went into the tallest watchtower and I saw golden sword which is similar to the fire sword. "Master Writer, That's...."she said when she knew that sword. "Yes this is the sword of sanctuary that enables you to see your enemies movement which is similar to the eye of ages."

"The Sword of Sanctuary?....."I said.

"The eye of ages? The ability to see the future, I heard that it lets you see many realms even spirits."

I touched my left eye and said disbelief, "see through realms huh I had no idea It can do that, I wonder if i can do it too?"

The master writer said, "Yes that's not all she came to me just to give her.....I gave her the shimu staff which was made by the wisdom and the knowledge of all brave heroes. We made it just for her as a gift becoz she is worthy to wield it "

"You mean the silver staff....that can morphed into 100 weapons. I heard those with a pure heart can wield it"

"Indeed"

I said with surprised look, "So thats where the shimu staff was made.....I remembered that my uncle said to me that his father had it so if that belong to Zecora then....why did it end up there?"I wanted to know that answer I guess it had to wait.

After they're finishing their conversation, they left the watchtower and head to the library. "I'm amazed master writer of what you told me, if only i want to see her."she said. The master writer said, "Yes but we shouldn't meddle with her, after all it is her story to tell."

"her story?"    "yes everyone has their own story even destiny"

I was kinda surprised that she was so fascinated about Zecora even though I don't know her. The master writer smiled at the interested girl who never thought that she was so curious all about realms and was inspired. The master writer placed her shoulder, "Sinha I'm so inspired that you took reading even though you weren't studying."

Rava/Sinha stuttered politely, "Oh....master I...."

"do not worry yourself, however when I saw you worked so hard and did your best was inspiring. You may not be perfect as Fenwick but I believe you'll do incredible things."

"Thx master writer...... I don't think I won't be able to be a better writer. I wasn't getting any merits, all i did was assist everyone instead of studying. After all, I'm just an apprentice"

"Ah....but your not just an apprentice, i think you'll become a great master writer than me."

"Me....the master writer oh no I can't be.....I'm not good as you. Fenwick is better than me, I am discipline, hard-working and sometimes get curious. I'm just the only girl in this kingdom."

"Yes, Fenwick maybe calm and discipline however I don't whether if i can trust his responsibility. Sometimes he paid attention but i don't know if he is destine to be. It doesn't matter what you are and who you are. You maybe the only girl but I believe that you will achieved many things and i know you will take responsibility."

"You really think so?...."

"I know so...for now continue what your doing, I'm looking forward to see you story begins."

"My story? What do you mean....?"

"You have to figured it out yourself *was about to leave* oh shiro told me so much about becoz he always looked up to you just like how you looked up to me. He said he wanted to be like you, it seem he was attached to you."

Rava/Sinha watched as he left her side and she was surprised that the he told her she might become the next master writer also she never thought of having him attached to her. She was walking along the chain bridge, I can't help but wonder what he meant Rava's story begin. Shiro called, "Hey Sinha, wait up?"  She greeted, "Oh shiro I didn't see you."

"Listen I saw you talking to the Master Writer, Its my first time seeing you had conversation and led you to see the Sword of Sanctuary. No one has ever been there before, your lucky you get to see it."

"Yes it was wonderful..."

"So what you talk about?"

She explained everything to him but leave out the spirit realm info. coz she was told not to tell since everyone know her. Shiro said, "Amazing....you know i think you'll make a great master writer."

"Indeed....but i don't know if i'm worthy to take responsibility to be the Master Writer."

"I think you can do it after all you respect him so much as i do. Everyone was inspired by your work, so i think you might achieved your destiny."

"Hmmm.....maybe i'll think about it."

"As you wish, i better go now anyway see you later."

  Rava/Sinha smiled at the little monk as he left her side. She was still thinking if she wanted to be the Master Writer. I said even though she can't hear me, "If she was going to be the master writer then why did she end up becoming a guardian instead? " That's when I saw Fenwick on the boat coming towards her when i notice he had a strange smile on his face. Fenwick said, "Sinha I need a favor to asked, if your willing to help."  She replied puzzled, "Why of course? after all we are the apprentice of the Master Writer"

"of course....There's something i want you to see, Come this way."

We followed him on the boat as we were riding through the clouds. While riding, she can't help quite notice that the tower were farther away from her. That's when we reached there, I saw there was a big hole in the middle of the cloud kingdom. I wondered why he brought her there as I turned to see Rava/Sinha looking over the boat when she saw it. "You know what that is, don't you?" Fenwick said.

"Why that's the Blind's Man Eye, I heard it leads to Ninjago but Why did you brought me here?" She said back turned. 

"That's a simple question....becoz you were always his favourite."He said harshly as he pushed her off the boat. I was shocked that he pushed Rava/Sinha, I watched as she disappeared into the eye. Fenwick said pleased, "I cannot believe you have faith on everyones lives. I'm not going to let some girl become the Master Writer.Now no one will ever find you, my destiny is secure." I couldn't believe that he betrayed her like that, I wanted to punched him when the scene changed.

I opened my eyes and notice i was no longer in the clouds anymore. As a matter a fact, I was in middle of the ocean and on a boat, I turned to see it was a fisherman who was catching some fish with a net. Then, he notice the cloud was blackening (the eye) out of nowhere he saw something fell from the sky. He steered the boat directly to where it fell. He was shocked that turned out to be a girl (Rava/Sinha) floating unconsciously so he scooped her up and head for shore. As the scene changed again, I was inside a cabin. I saw her she was on the sofa beside the fireplace.

Rava/Sinha slowly opened her eyes and observe the surrounding. She didn't know what happened then she recalled that Fenwick was the one who pushed her off the boat. She cannot believe it but she was tricked and betrayed by her fellow writer. She was about to get up when someone came in which turned out to be a man and a woman. She stayed firmly at the man and woman in case they are harmful. The man said, "oh you're awake, phew that's a relief." "Shhh....its ok dear we mean you no harm. My name is Mara the wife and you are...."she said politely, as she gave warm tea. Rava/Sinha stared at them and gently drank the tea which is very good. She said calmly, "My name is Sinha." "Sinha....What a nice name, my name is Gen the fisherman and her husband its a pleasure to meet you."He said with a smile. She smiled bit back at him, "The pleasure is mine, May I ask where am I?"the couples stared at each other confusedly. Gen answered, "Where do you think you are......your in Ninjago, and right now your in Jamankai Village (where Kai and Nya lived before)"

"I'm in Ninjago, Oh dear I shouldn't be here. I must return back."

She tried to get up but she felt wobbly as she stumped back at the sofa. Mara said, "Take it easy, you can't get up right now you need to rest. My husband just saved you from the sea."

"The sea?"

Gen said"Well, yeah I was out fishing for supplies when all of a sudden, I found you drifting from the sea. I know it sound surprising but you fell from sky. I want to know how that happen and where you came from."

Rava/Sinha explained to them of where she came from and why she fell from the sky even though she's not allowed but had no choice. After that, the couples were stunned by her story. Mara said, "Your from the....Cloud Kingdom? I've heard many places in Ninjago but never heard of that place."

"That's becoz its from another world where I from. I am an apprentice in becoming writer., Our job is the write everyone's destiny."

Gen said surprise, "Really? Does that include us too?"

"yes. Including you and your wife"

"Wow.....so you were the ones who writes our own destiny. That's truly amazing and grateful."

"Which is why I must return to my home."

"What, Can't you stay for a bit?"Mara said to her. Rava/Sinha replied, "I cannot my people need me and I must fulfilled my duty."She was about to leave until she was stopped by a fisherman.

"Um.....listen before you go, May I asked....do you even know how to take care of yourself?"He asked curiosity.

"Well....yes however I have no knowledge about Ninjago so I think I can handle."

"I don't think so.....you won't be able to take care of yourself when your defenseless. They're might be pack of wild animals or thieves out there and not only that you don't even know the first thing about surviving. You may be a writer but you need to learn how to defend yourself when you encounter obstacles."

"I never thought of that.....I guess very well then I will stay in exchange you must teach me everything you know about Ninjago and survival."

Gen stared at her as he rubbed her hair with a laughed. "Ha ha ha I like your confidence. Very well, we'll start learning tomorrow for now get some rest." 

A few days, I watched Rava/Sinha learn much of the Jamankai Village surrounding which made her amazed that she never seen so many stuffs in her life ever since she was in the cloud kingdom. Not only that he also showed her bout his surviving skills. She was impressed about fishing, hunting, cutting some firewood and medical skills like herbs or berry. As for the wife, they keep preparing food for them. She smiled at Rava/Sinha who was eating.

Later, they were walking through the shops to buy some supplies. He met one of his friends at the shop. They were chatting about how they're going on their life. Rava/Sinha was staring at them quietly, it reminded of the time when shiro treated her nicely that way than fenwick. She doesn't know whether to trust anyone who was pretending or not. "Hey, Gen.....you never told you had a daughter...."the man said pointing at her. She blinked at the man, 'daughter? '

Gen said, "You think so? Actually she's just a guest to our home. I was buying some survival kits and a map for her."

"Oh I see.....I remember you had a daughter before but too bad she left this world."as they left the shop. Rava/Sinha asked, "What did he mean? Gen"Gen sighed, "I used to have a daughter who was around your age however she had a weak heart and passed away. She always wanted to see many places but you know something she reminded of you."

"Oh I'm sorry....."

"Ah that's ok.....all i know is that her spirit will live on in our memories. Now then, Let's head to the forest its time for your training."

"Training? For what....."

In the forest, they were standing far from each other and they were holding a bow and arrow. "Have you ever use a bow?"He asked. She shook her head and he added, "Today I'm going to teach you how to shoot an arrow. Here's one thing; Always focus on your target"He stretched his bow and try to shot the arrow at the tree instead it shot only at the ground. She comment, "You are not good with a bow, are you?"

"Well my daughter was very good at it, anyway here you try. Aim carefully, relaxed your shoulder and released it"

Rava/ Sinha stretched the bow as she try to focus her aim. She closed her eyes and felt the wind was passing through so she used that advantage as she shot it. Not at the tree but at the tallest tree. Gen was speechless at first when she shot that arrow. He said, "I thought you never learn how to use a bow, Your really good at this."

"Actually It is my first time......"

I said to myself when they can't hear me, "So that's why Rava learned how to shoot an arrow perfectly, Not bad."Gen said, "Ok up next I'm going to teach you some defense skills, here's an advice; When facing an enemy, you must find the weakness then turned it into strength."Rava/Sinha nodded and he added, "Good, Now *got into a fighting stance* Let's begin."After all that training, Rava was perfected in learning how to defend herself.

The next morning, She was wearing a cloak to keep her warm and backpack for her to survive through the wild. Rava/Sinha bowed her head and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, you have my gratitude."Gen said sheepishly, "Hey hey you don't have to be polite, just take care of yourself."Mara said, "If only you stay for awhile."

"I luv to but i cannot stay here any longer, I need to get back home."

"How will you get back there?"

"I will find another way to get back to my own realm. I'll just keep on searching."as she was about to leave when he stopped her. "Oh yeah before you I want you to have this."He said as he handed down the bow and arrow to her. She said, "But this is your bow."

"I think you should have it, after all your a better archer than me. Use it well and use it wisely. SInha"

She smiled at him and said, "I will take good care of it. Goodbye Gen and Mara, I will not forget it"As she put on her hood and embarked on her journey. She did what the map says, she searched many answers in hopes of getting back. The only place she can go back is the blind's man eye but it was too high for her not even mountains or trees can't reached to the top. She visited many places she never seen before. I also watched her survive out of the wilds that the fisherman taught her, she was very handy with her archery becoz she never missed a shot for hunting until later she has reached her destination. My guess this must be her first time exploring Ninjago right after she met Morro. She traveling to find some answers in hopes of getting back. Not I felt astonished that she kept on searching and looking. She head to the Library of Domu thinking she might find the answer there but to no avail. I can't believe she read so many books I watched her as she was about to leave until she accidental bumped into monk who was holding the books and scrolls.

She apologize to the monk as she helped him gather them for him. She was about to reached the scroll then notice something, she unrolled it revealing a picture of a person in somekind of tornado the one it looks exactly I saw in in my vision.

She asked him, "May I ask? What is this?"the monk answered, "Oh that's Airjitzu, it is forgotten technique taught by the deceased Sensei Yang."

"Airjitzu? What is it exactly?"

"It allows you to take flight...."

'take flight....I wonder.'She said, "DO you have the scroll of Airjitzu?"

He shooked his head and explained the history of Sensei Yang which she was so interested on. She questioned, "Where can I find the resting place of Senesei Yang?"

"he has temple where Sensei Yang trained was, you can hitched ride on a bus but Why do you need it?"

"It might be important if I learned the airjitzu technique, I must obtained the scroll."She left in a hurry however the monk warned even though she didn't hear it, "Wait....if you enter the temple, you will be cursed becoz no one has ever left the temple."I remembered Hunter warned me about that, if you don't leave till dawn will turn into a ghost. So I followed Rava/Sinha into the bus.

At night, We arrived at Sensei Yang and she just went in without a warning. She searched every each room to find the scroll then she stumble a room where Sensei Yang is. Rava/Sinha knew she couldn't find it as she was about to leave.

'as iron sharpen iron, sensei sharpen student'

I blinked that it was exactly the same thing how it happened to me when i was tested and now she was tested too. She turned to see that swords were flying around however she wasn't scared at all in fact she was able defend herself. I never knew she was fearless when it comes to facing danger thx to the fisherman's teaching. She manage to dodge from the sharp blades. It stopped them but they started to aim directly at her. She ran out of the room through the hallway. She looked over her shoulder and still the swords were gaining on her. She reached to the entrance door and notice she couldn't budge the door.

She turned to see that the swords are coming for her, she thought it was the end of her. Then, she realized something that she had her bow; She shot arrows at the swords without missing a shot. She manage to deflect them very easily. I was kinda amazed by her shooting ability. She felt relief for now but it wasn't over she still hasn't found the scroll yet.

She searched around the hallway until she encountered some ghost ninjas even the ones behind her. She was surprised at first as she got into her fighting stance. The ghost ninjas began to attack her but she blocked them. She fought with all her might and elegant. She managed to beat two of the ghost ninjas when they disappeared. She run through the hallway and the ghost ninjas chased after her. She was so quick that she swiftly brought out her bow and shot at the two. I guess she knows how to handle the situation when she's so calm.

As she head to the attic, she notice it was empty and looked around to see a glowing green light; it was the scroll. She walks toward it and grabbed the scroll that when sensei yang appeared after she took it.

"As iron sharpens iron, sensei sharpens student, I am impressed how you come so far. I do not sense fear from you."

"You must be Sensei Yang the monk spoke of......I was however I learned not to be afraid. I have obtained the scroll of airjitzu." She asked calmly. I was surprised that she was talking to him upfront even though by his appearance.

"How brave you are, Now Tell me young one....Why do you seek it?"

"BEcoz I needed to get back home, now that I have overcome your obstacle I will take my leave."

"You really are truly amazing and very discipline, perhaps you would make a perfect student of mine."

"I'm sorry but I'm afraid I cannot be your student."

"Oh...its a shame, I'm afraid I cannot let you leave."

Out of nowhere the ghost chains suddenly appeared from her wrist while holding the scroll. She tried to wriggle free but didn't budge. Not only that she heard the clock bell and notice her arm is becoming transparent. Sensei Yang said, "I see you didn't heed the warning, didn't you? If you do not leave till dawn, will be trapped here forever." Rava/Sinha eye's widened when she heard the bell, it was almost dawn outside. She tried to get wriggle from her chains but to no avail as her body began to glow. Sensei Yang said, "Resistance is futile, you will now become one of my captives."

I was afraid something might happen, I wanted to save her but it was just only a memory, I couldn't do anything as I watched helplessly at Rava/ Sinha who was struggling. If she stays here, she will never be able to get back in hopes of seeing her people. She cannot bear to she lose as she tried to break free. "No....I wil not...Let me go."she yelled when without a doubt, the chains were easily snapped and She manage to broke free of herself as she ran away. Sensei Yang was surprised that she escaped from his grasp. "Impressive She is strong-willed girl that she was able to break my chains." one of the ghost questioned, "Do you want us to retrieve her?"

"No the dawn is already rising.....she may be free but *picked up the quill that she left behind* it is already too late for her."

I was confused at first when I was now outside, I saw Rava/Sinha came out of the temple until I was shocked of what I saw. Rava/Sinha sighed in relief that she escaped then she notice something wasn't right. Hair braid wasn't up but down instead she must have left her quill however that wasn't a case at all. She looked at herself until she gave horrified look. She was no longer a person anymore, she was.....a ghost. She felt terrified of what she has become.

I felt sorry for her that she is now turned into a ghost. She can't touch or feel anything. I watched her as she kept on going on a journey. She read the techniques of Airjitzu and learned to master it for 2 days. After that, she mastered the arts of Airjitzu. I said to myself, "So that what he meant, no wonder she knows airjitzu but I felt kinda ashamed that she turned into a ghost. I know how Vatu feels when he was trapped in the cursed realm and he was a ghost before."

I stared at Rava/Sinha who already know airjitzu but feeling discouraged. She head back to the Library of Domu, it was early morning and she saw the monk was about to opened. She went to the monk and he was surprised of what he saw. He thought he had seen a ghost but Rava/Sinha fooled him into thinking it just the sun messing with his eyes. She traded the scroll to the monk in exchange for supplies. Later, She kept on going and going further. I do not know why she kept going so i guess she wanted to go back so badly. When she reached Birchwood Forest, the winter storm is getting strong and she still kept going even she wasn't feeling cold. She reached out her map to find the closest village however it was gust away and she tried to grabbed but the storm is too hard to see. She was lost as she stayed by the Birchwood Tree where it had a hollow in it, She remained there trying to seek warm. She knew that it was hopeless for her, that she can't get back home. Rava/Sinha cope herself for unable to get back to the cloud kingdom in her ghost form even she learned airjitzu. They won't be able to sense her anymore.

She regret in trusting anyone who always believed her will turned into a devastated. Fenwick was the one to blame, she wanted to get back to him for doing this to her. It was no used for her. Her fate had been sealed, she tucked herself under her cloak and wished that she could changed her destiny. The scene began to changed again.

I opened my eyes and I notice the season has changed. Then, I saw a young woman just passing by until she was ambushed by a bunch of bandits. The man with a knife said, "Your money or your life."the lady was terrified that her money was about to be stolen until something shot them from the shoulder. The bandit howled in pain, the other bandits took a good look who ever shot their leader. That's when they a female holding a bow. I knew it was Rava/Sinha in her ghost form and her clothes looked different, I guess years must have gone by. She kept shooting arrows at the bandits as they ran away, the lady looked up and saw her. She looked scared when she saw a ghost. Rava/Sinha went closer to her and tried to gave the gold to her but the lady ran in feared.

She looked depressed that everyone saw her form and we all know that they're afraid of ghosts. I followed Rava/Sinha near the tree where she remained there before. She shot at the tree feeling furious of her appearance. I guess she holds a grudge on Fenwick for what he did to her. She cursed herself and the world who did this to her. She stayed at hollow tree as she tucked her knees and placed her head. "I thought trust might be the only thing to gained peace but in the end becomes a betrayal. I will not forgive you Fenwick. The Master Writer might have forgotten about me by now. I won't let anyone step foot here in the forest."She said in a bit anger. I guess she hated everyone coming to the forest where she was.

She was about to go for a hunt until she sense someone was coming. She hid at the top of the tree and ready her bow. She saw a strange boy wearing a strange clothes unlike she never seen. She jumped out of the branch and shot at the boy. However, he pulled out his katana and sliced it in half. My eyebrow's raised when I recognized that katana, the boy was Vatu before that's how he and her met in a unexpected way. The boy holding a katana on his right hand said, "Woah.....watch where your shooting that thing. You could have easily hurt anyone."Rava/Sinha glared at him, "Not unless your entering someone's territory. Leave this place or you won't feel the painful."

" Woah.....another cursed soul huh I guess you must be the ghost that terrorizing people whoever set foot to this place."

"So what if I am? What are you going to do about it?"

"Well, you are a cursed soul so...... I'll let Her decide what to do with you. So be a good girl and come quietly....."

"Sorry.....but I'm afraid I don't trust anyone's word, especially you."She spat as she shot another arrow at him He saw it as he grabbed another katana and sliced it. He said, "I guess I'll have to force you then."He charged at her as she charged at him. She deflect his katanas with her bow and pushed him back. She shot three arrows at him and he manage to dodged very quickly. She kept chasing him while shooting at her target. He was quick on his feet as he swing his sword left and right at her. She saw thorugh his movement and swiftly dodged his blade as she jumped elegantly on the tree. He grinned at her, "Hey not bad......your really good at shooting are you."She replied, "thx same goes for you too. Wielding those swords like that."

"Well i'm a samurai what do you expect."

She let his guard down by tossing snow at his face. He tried to remove the snow on his face until he was shot on the left ankle. He dropped his katanas and clutched on to his ankle that he barely couldn't get up. Rava/Sinha ready her bow at him, "Its over.....you should know. No one can't defeat. Many had tried but failed miserably."He slowly lift his head and smiled, "I may be.....but I'm not like the others."She was confused at his word as she was about to shoot him when he lift his index finger (Forming like spider man shooting web) he blew on it creating a mist which making her hard to see.

She tried to see where he was when she was ambushed from behind. She tried to shield herself with a bow but he break them in half. The mist was clearing away, she was on her knees, holding her broken bow and staring at the samurai who was pointing his sword at her chin. He smiled truimphantly, "Tag your it....."She said disbelief, "How can you move? I shot your ankle."

"Like I said, I'm not like the others......" he pointed at his ankle revealing it was healed

She turned her face away from him, "Go ahead finish me.....I don't care anymore beside I don't deserve to live."She was waiting for her demise but instead he put away his katanas. He said confused look, "Ok.....you know you don't menacing than I thought but that was a great fight."He extend his hand to her, she stared at him and grabbed his hand. She was confused that he didn't harmed her when someone came behind him. "There you are......I was looking for you."a lady in hood said. I turned to her and wondered then I knew who she was. 'Is that Zecora?'

He said apologetic, "Sorry about that.....I just happen to bumped into a cursed soul."The mysterious hood went closer and observed her appearance then turned to him. "So she must be the spirit of the wind who roams around the forest. I guess the rumors were true. Who would thought?"

"Yeah....Can you believe it? A cursed soul scaring everyone off the forest. I wonder what is she doing her? SHouldn't she be in the cursed realm?"

"I don't think she's not a cursed soul at all."

"What do you mean?"

"She's just only a poor unfortunate girl who was cursed and turned into a ghost."

Rava/Sinha turned to her face lit up as she met someone's eye. She asked, "How....How did you know I was cursed?"She looked at her and answered, "That's becoz I sense that you entered the temple of Sensei Yang."the samurai blurted, "Sensei Yang?! You mean the crooked old man who doesn't want to leave and captures his victim."the lady in hood nodded at him. Rava/Sinha asked again, "You know Sensei Yang....?"

She replied, "Of course....he was the Airjitzu Master before he left this world. I tried to purify him so that he could crossed over but he refused so I decided to sealed him in his temple where he can't leave."

"Purify.....? That's strange.....the only one who can do that was.......wait, you wouldn't happen to be Zecora, the master of spirit who roams around the 16 realms that my Master spoke of?"

She blinked at her and gave a grin. "What do you know? It would seem I'm not the only one who came from another realm. I'm flattered, you must be from the cloud kingdom and I heard that your the only female there, are you?"Rava/Sinha was surprised that she knew her and also she even get to meet Spirit Master the first time. The samurai said, "Woah wait the Cloud kingdom? Where they wrote destinies.......dude I didn't know you were from that realm. I never knew they had a girl in that realm. But why a monk like you doing in the place like this?"

Rava/Sinha shared her story to them and how she end up in Ninjago. After that, they were silenced at first. "I can't believe that Fenwick jerked did this to you just becoz your only a girl. So you thought using airjitzu will fly you back there but your now a ghost."he complained. SHe said curling her fist, "Yes becoz of him, I can't go back to Cloud Kingdom now that I'm a ghost. One day, I will make him pay for what he did to me."

Zecora stared at her carefully, sensing a hatred coming from her. "Is that revenge?"she asked.

"Yes, he did this to me and I won't forgive him, He will pay for betraying me. You have no idea how it feels."

"I know how that feels but.....What comes after revenge is a moment's release, and an eternity of despair. There's no need for you to suffer bearing someone's life for the rest of yours."

"But he made my life worst.....my story was like sad ending. For that, I will never trust anyone again."

"But isn't there something than just holding grudge? WHen your in Ninjago, not all people are bad but they're people who had good heart. Do you have someone who were nice to you?"

Rava/Sinha shrugged her shoulder and thought about the time she had. "Well, I did.....there's shiro who was always looked up to me and two couples who saved me." Zecora continued, "See.....there are good people in the world and sometime bad people. They make mistakes sometime but they overcome it."

"But I never mistakes.....I try to be perfect."

"Sinha....listen not all people are perfect, They just be the way of who they are. You need to learn from that mistakes then changed it, It is what is part of life."

"Learn my mistake? Have you ever encountered who shared the same fate as I am?"

"actually I do......Sahone here was once in the cursed realm. He was betrayed before until he learned his mistakes. Right now, he manage to defied his destiny by changing it."b

Rava/Sinha turned to him, "Your Sahone,the huntsboy......Impossible, you were suppose in the cursed realm. How did you become human again?"

Sahone put his hand behind his head, "Actually, I'm partly half human, part ghost and part wolf. I turned into a spirit guardian thx to Zecora power. I can "

"So you used your power to summon no wonder i let my guard down..... That's why your name disappeared from the scroll."

"Really? How'd you geuss?"

"Becoz one of the writer was writing you then all of a sudden your name and the words just completely vanished as if you disappered from your existence."

"Not exactly.....but thx for your concern."

Zecora stated, "It must have been the pledge of loyalty and my power that caused Sahone story to vanished. You see, the reason he became my guardian is he made a promised to fulfilled. He may have made a mistake but he never gave up. There is no need to hold grudges on anyone, sometime you should learn from that mistake and you changed it."Rava/Sinha lowered her head and thought about it. She asked, "What shall I do now? There is no place for me to be....."

"Isn't there you wanted to do?"

" what do you mean?"

"Its true every story had a sad ending......but every story has their new begining. They're a lot of discovery to see and explore. One day, you might learn to understand and maybe you can find trust again."

Rava/Sinha was inspired by her word, it touched her heart as if she was given hope again. "Now that you understand then there is no reason to harm people. We must go now, its time we continue our journey. Come Sahone"She said as she left. Sahone said catching up to her, " what about her? Shouldn't you helped her?"

"I think she can find herself......."

Rava/Sinha watched them left, she was so amazed that she met Zecora and Sahone. They never gave up hope and kept on going. She has seen half of Ninjago but she wanted to see what the world out there. She run after them, holding on to her broken bow. She yelled, "Wait.....Lady Zecora I have a request."

They turned to her as she manage to catch up. "I want you to take me with you."she asked. Sahone gave a disbelief look while Zecora smiled at her and said, "Why do you wish to come with us?"

"Well....its true I lost faith on myself and doubt of ever trusting anyone but I wanted to learn more about this world and understand. So pls I beg you to take me with you."

Zecora didn't said anything when Sahone object about having another one. "Woah....woah hold up, I think you should rethink about it first before deciding."

"What do you mean?"

"Its true I escape from my fate.....still I'm cursed. Once you become a spirit guardian, there's no turning back."

Zecora said unsure look, "He's right.....if you form a contract and pledge your loyalty, you will never go back to where you came from. You will no longer be monk or a writer, your name will disappeared from the scroll just like Sahone...are you sure about that?"Rava/Sinha thought about what she said. Once she did that, she won't see her home again. She rather be a ghost than taking responsibility however seeing how the spirit master never gave up and reminded of her mentor, she was given a chance to live. She said, "its true i cannot see them anymore......but I want to learn more about the other realms. Even my story disappeared from the scroll, that doesn't mean I can make own story. If Sahone defies destiny, so can I.

Sahone was dumbfounded by her words and Zecora was amazed by her actions. A smile growing slowly across her face as she said, "I was hoping your going to say that, I think you would make a fine guardian. You are very good with your shooting ability and how you fought honorably.....very well I will respect your wishes but remember the journey can be difficult."Sahone groaned, "SO she's coming with us, Great and here I thought only one is good enough."

Zecora instructed to close her eyes and she what she was told. She grabbed her hand and started chanting ancient word. Rava/Sinha felt the pain in her chest but she has to endure it. Then, 2 jade beads appeared as it went inside and her body began to glow. When she opened her eyes and saw her clothes had transformed into a jumpsuit even her bow that was broken was turned into a celestial bow. She stared at her bow and notice there wasn't an arrow. Zecora assured, "I know what your thinking.....Just pulled the string and imagined an arrow."She focused her power and pulled the string then out of nowhere the energy arrow appeared as she shot at the tree then it dissipate. Rava/Sinha said, "Incredible.....I felt like the wind is a part of me."

"That's becoz that is your power so use it wisely......From now on, You are known as the Guardian of the Sky. Now, are you ready to start your own destiny."

She stared at her for a second and said with a blissful, "Yes....Mistress."Sahone said confused, "woah she's polite and formal.....Is she allowed to call you that?"Zecora said, "She can choose whichever she likes.....it is her first time and she's under our care. So get along with her understand."

"I see......"

Rava/Sinha said, "I will do everything in my power to protect you. I swear on my life and I'm willing to take responsibility."Sahone said impressed, "Y'know I think you and I are going to be good friends."She gave a sheepishly glance and thought to herself that she was called many things but never a friend. Zecora question, "Now then, Shall we go?"

"Wait.....she may be ready but there's something missing." Sahone said as he walked towards Rava/Sinha. He undo her braided hair as it came down.

"Just I thought.....you look better with your hair down. What do you think? Zecora."

She agreed, "I think your right i liked it......Is it ok you leave it like that? Sinha."Rava/Sinha blushed at her hair and replied, "Actually I think I like it too, if thats what you wish then it is done."I said amazed, "So thats how she became a guardian. First, Vatu fulfilled his promise to his old friend and now Rava fulfilled hers by learning to accept her mistake." I watched Sahone grabbing Rava/Sinha's hand as he pulled her into going ahead while Zecora was staring at them with a smile. Its a shame I can't see her face but then I notice she was staring at me as if she can see me.

Zecora advises, "There are times when people make mistakes, as long as they learned from that mistake. I advice you that use your power wisely, ok?"I was surprised that she really did see me and she was speaking to me even though I'm inside Rava's memory. I wanted to ask a question until the scene began white again, all i know is I chanted the same thing to Vatu.

Cross of silver, day and night.

By the eye of ender,

Turn the darkness into light

Unbind the bead which holds the wish that has been fulfilled

End of Flashback

When I opened my eyes, I saw two jade beads glowing from Rava's chest and became one as it disappeared. I knew rava fulfilled one of her deeds, that's why it became one jade bead. I notice something wet from my hand, I looked up and saw Rava's eyes is filled with tears while holding the the white feather as it disappeared. I guessed she knew I saw her memories. I said trying to comfort her, "Rava, are u ok?"

"Yes....mistress I'm ok and I think I understand what the Master Writer meant by my story. He knew something was going to happen and he wanted me to help restore the balance. It wasn't about becoming a spirit guardians, it is to.......help you."Rava stated.

"What? What do you mean?"

"He knew about it all along that Zecora might become a concept, that's why he chose me and Vatu to be with her when one day a newborn will appeared. Without us, we wouldn't have met you. I guess that's why he brought me to meet Zecora."

"YEah your right.....if you guys weren't here then I wouldn't realize my destiny as the master of spirit. But I had no idea that....your master knew it might happen. He really was a great writer of destiny, he must be really proud of you."

"Yes he really was......"

"Now that's settle it, we better head back to stixx and teach me airjitzu since you know that technique......"

"No mistress.....I suggest we go on ahead, it will be much simpler."

"What why?"

"Becoz I figured out the second clue of what morro is going after next.......the sword of sanctuary."

"the sword of sanctuary?.....y'mean the power that is similar to my eye of ages and where Zecora recieved the shimu staff. Then, that means....."

"yes....If we get to Cloud Kingdom, we might get there first before morro does."

"EHHHHH.......we're going to Cloud KKingdom?! But we don't even know how we get there. Beside we can only teleport in ninjago not other realms."

"True.....but there is another way you see....do you how i come to this world?"

"Well....that time when you came....wait you don't mean....?!"

"Yes if we find the blind's man eye, it will take us there however they say that it keeps moving and sometime appeared in any location. It is the only way to get there, all we have to is find it."

"But how we suppose to find that? it'll take days to find it......."

"We have no choice mistress.....the fate of the world is in our hands. If we don't, Morro will clearly find the tomb or worst you won't see Lloyd again."

My chest stopped when I heard Lloyds name. She's right i mean if we don't do something then world will be cursed. However, I'm worried about Lloyd safety if something happen to him. I guess I'll have to go with her plan. I said regret, "ok if it is for the sake of this world so be it if he can defied destiny so can I , but what about Vatu? SHouldn't we tell him about it?"

"We'll manage without him beside he's with HUnter so I'm pretty sure he won't mind."Rava said. "Ok but I can't believe we're heading to Cloud kingdom, maybe I might find origin there. What do you think?"I asked.

"Well.....it might have clue of how you came to this world where your uncle found you? We won't know unless we find the blind's man eye and find your answer you seek."

"That's settle then, Let's find the blind's man eye."I said enthusiasm when I heard a grumbling sound coming from my tummy. I saw Rava grinned at me as I turn my face from her to hide my shame. "But first we must need nourishment to strengthen our energy before our search."Rava chuckled. I frowned at her realizing she was laughing on the inside. "Let us find a place to eat before depart, let me just summon our crows since you grow weary...."

I remembered something and suggest, "Actually, I have a better idea......."I focus my spiritual power and with a blink a flash. I summoned my very first time....the power dragon which astound Rava. She said, "MIstress.....you've unleashed the power dragon but how?"

"Let's just say......I just found my true potential."I said proudly. She hoped onto my back and gave a proud smile as I try out new ride and man it was really fast. I couldn't believe we're in the sky and I get to fly around whenever I like. While we were flying, I turned to her and asked, "Hey since you got your memories back.....what shall I call you? Sinha, Rava or Birdy."Rava tilt her head and gave a response, "WHichever you like best....."

"OK Rava While we're at it, Can you tell more about Cloud Kingdom?"

"Well let's just.....it was filled with wonderful things....."As I listened to Rava about her homeland while flying through the sky in a morning sunrise.

Vatu POV

It was in the afternoon, I was outside sitting at pier beside HUnter shop and still I'm bored. The good part is that Rava messaged me through telepathic that Jinmay unlocked her true potential which is pretty awesome But the worst part is that they're going on ahead in search of the second clue without me. Can you believe it? She just left me with Hunter, my worst nightmare. I've been helping her out on her shop selling antiques and carry heavy loads which is tiring. She sure know how to handle a customer.

I sighed and closed my eyes.Which had been a bad idea because someone or something covered my eyes. The action alarmed me, causing me to turn into my wolf form and tackling the person to the ground. My eyes widened when I saw who it was...it was Hunter."

"what the heck was that for?! I was just going to surprise you, what are you trying to do?"She said mentally freaked out. I quickly turned back to my human form and quickly got off him. "Oh! I'm so sorry, I didn't know it was you! I thought it was someone else! I could-"

"Sh! Relax wolfboy" Hunter said, placing a finger in front of me. "It's alright, no one was hurt. Just try a little bit surprised instead ok." >I sighed once again and looked down. "I know, I just didn't want to hurt anyone...."Now it was Hunter's turn to sigh. "I'm fine. You're just being your usual self." "What does that mean?" I asked, slightly offended. SHe chuckled. "Nothing. Hey, you're looking bored." "yeah there isn't anything to do here to relived my boredom, just throwing rocks." I asked, looking around.

Hunter smirked. "I know exactly what to do. I need you to change into your wolf form."

"huh Why?"

"Just do it."

"Fine...." I said and changed into my wolf form and sat down. Hunter looked down at me and chuckled. "Great. Now, I want to show you something." She said and left the pier for a minute or two before coming back out with something behind her back.I tilted my head and attempted to see what it was. "Hold on. Okay, here's what I wanted to show you." She said and held up an orange ball. I tilted my head to the side again, not quite getting what she was going at. Hunter just smiled and threw it across the floor. I watched as it rolled around for a minute before suddenly getting up and chasing after it. I don't know why I did this but it just seemed right at the time. I picked up the ball and brought it back to Hunter, placing it in front of her. She bent down, picked up the ball, and threw it again. Oh no......I see what she's trying to do. She's trying to use my "dog instincts" to entertain herself. I tried to resist getting the ball but I was unsuccessful...

After minutes later, I retrieve the ball and revert to my human form. I glared at her and complained, "What the heck?! I can't believe you did that just to amuse yourself."She said trying to defend, "At least your not bored.....beside you seemed to have fun."as she placed her goggles on her eyes and head inside the shop. I mumbled while following her, "But that's no reason just to make fun out of me." As i entered, I notice she was doing something at the floor that looks like pipes and gears even engine. I wonder why is it there. She closed the floorpanel wiping the dirt at her face. She head to the computer and turned it on revealing some kind of parts of the ship. She touched the screen and rubbing the chin of her face. She noted, "Hm.....the engines are ok but one of the gears are missing. I need is a thermal coupling but they could be anywhere. I guess i have to find somewhere closed by....."she searched through the data screen until finally she found it as she upload it into her locator device. She said, "C'mon Vatu you said you wanted to relieved your boredom....Its time for a little field trip."I got confused on what kind of field trip it is so I went along with her.

It was night time, We were riding on motorbike with a sidecar which I'm on it through the dessert mountain. I don't know why we go at night and she said it was good place to find things that she needs. I had no idea what it was so I don't bother asking. We finally stopped at the canyon. She parked her bike there with a cloaking device and we go by foot. We reached our destination when I saw a beast made of bones. I never seen it so big before and I felt sorry for entering its gave when I notice Hunter was touching its bone. My arms crossed over from my chest and said, "Hunter what are you doing? Show some respect for the dead."Hunter turned to me, "Well Vatu for your information this doesn't looked like a boneyard."she found something as she pressed it then all of a sudden we saw the beast mouth opened that leads underground.

My mouth dropped open when i was shocked that I had no idea it had a secret passageway. Hunter walked passed me and grinned at me, "What's the matter? Wolf got your tongue....C'mon i should borrow one of the gears."as she head down. I snapped out of it and said confuse as i follow her, "Borrow? What do you mean?" When we reached underground, I was amazed of what I saw. THey're some cool gears they had in here. I wondered who built this place, it looked like a secret cave.

WHile I was staring, I bumped into a farmiliar armor. I turned around and saw the samurai mech. "Hey....this is Nya's armor, it that's her then that means...."I said till I realize this is her samurai X cave. I turned to Hunter who was looking through the junk. I said disbelief, "Hunter.....what were you thinking? This is Nya's Samurai Cave X, we're not suppose to be here."Hunter replied while searching through, "So you know her....HEhhhhh I never knew she had talent in building this place."

"Yeah she's one of the ninjas but she's a samurai with cool tech gear. What exactly are we doing here?"

"I'm just looking for the thermal couplings for the engine, don't worry we're just borrowing the things she doesn't need."

"Borrow? More like stealing.....it's illegal and  I thought you said you gave up stealing."

"*groan* I said I'm just borrowing and relax its not like she knows. I'll give it back to her after we saved this world. As they say, when you take risk, you just have to go for it."

"Tell me....that was your opinion."

"yup.....Now don't just stand there and help me find the thermal coupling."

"Ugh.....I can't believe I'm doing this......sorry about this Nya..."I said feeling guilty as I helped her find the the thermal coupling; whatever that is coz I have no idea what it was, I just hope she doesn't know I entered her cave. I looked through the stuff where she placed the gears. I asked trying not to be bored, "So.....um....I heard you snuck jinmay to see outside."Hunter shudered when I mentioned and recalled, "Yeah she always wanted to outside so that no will treat her badly."

"wow........Also Jinmay claimed that you were the one who defeated the Grundel. That was noble of you to risk your life just to save a friend."I compliment when I notice Hunter reaction who seems to be disturbed by that fact. She let out a deep sigh and said, "Listen, I have a confession to make, Jinmay told you that I was the who defeated the Grundel."

"YEah....what about it?"

"It wasn't me who defeated the Grundel, It was jinmay who vanquished the Grundel."

"What? What are you saying?"

"Its true I was beaten by the grundel and it was about to eat me when......."

Flashback

The Grundle stood up and started coming towards them. Hunter told her to run but she refused so she stood and grabbed a stick trying to defend her. "you saved me, now its my turn to save you." Jinmay lunged at the beast but it hit her at the corner. HUnter tried to get up but her shoulder stinged her. Hunter watched as the grundel is about to eat her. She heard Jinmay's screamed, "NOOO!!!!"

Hunter closed her eyes waiting for her to end but nothing happaned. She opened eye and notice the Grundel was turning in an opposite direction as if it was staring. She turned to what it was staring which turns out to by jinmay who was somehow glowing. Hunter saw her eyes were glowing bright even the hair then out of nowhere the particle began to gathered around on both hands. The Grundel roared as it charged at her, Jinmay enraged of hurting her friend as she blasted her energy at the grundel creating huge energy field.

Hunter shielded herself from blindness, when she opened her eyes till her face suddenly pale and eyes wide with terror of what she saw. The blast created the big hole and all what remains are the bones of the grundel that was destroyed. She slowly looked up at Jinmay an she was filled with fear of what power she posses. Jinmay's eyes stopped glowing and faintly fall to the knee then the ground. Hunter's eye is getting blur as her eyes were closed.

End of FlashBack

".....In the end, the men in Iona village manage to find us. I spoke to the elder about her power and he was shocked when he told me the legend about the spirit master. He wondered she might be the descendant of the lost master. If she was, then everyone in Iona Village will fear her power so I had to make up the story into believing I was the who defeated the grundel. That's why I was banished in order to protect her, she save me before so i returned the favor."

"So it was jinmay......that's why you took the blame in order to prevent everyone in suspecting her. But what you did was righteous in order to protect her however you know jinmay has carried so much burden when you left. She felt ashamed of herself."

"Really?.....I guess I regret myself for lying to everyone, I feel like running away from myself. If jinmay know the truth, how will she react? She won't be able to speak to me again."

"Someone once told me you need to control your fear, and not let fear control you. I think you should tell her or you'll might regret for the rest of your life. Beside the ninjas learned that the hard way, even Rava"

"Y'know Vatu I think you spend too much with the ninjas. However, you have a way with words now I know where she learned her lesson. Very Well, once we got we're looking for, I'll tell her."

I smiled at her as we continued searching. While we searching, I sense a demonic aura i do not recognize and i knew someone was coming. Hunter exclaimed, "Aha....I found it."I shushed her placing a finger in front of me. Hunter stared at me with a puzzled look and stated, "What's wrong?"

"We're not the only ones here.....Quick stand still for a second."

"Why?"

"I'm going to cast on us...so pls."

Hunter don't know what I was thinking so she what she was told. I closed my eyes as I chanted the words.

Swift as the mist, silent as the forest

Heed my voice and passed through the night

Become invisible from the eye

The mist began to formed around us as our body become transparent. Hunter got surprised when she saw her hand turning invisible. "huh neat trick...."Hunter said impressed. We stood very still to see who are intruder is which turns out when I know who it was. "It's Morro and he brought his little ghost friends with him."I said softly, trying not to draw attention. "So that's how the armor works......huh no wonder it was so valuable. So that's Lloyd now I know why she likes him, he's cute."

"Hello.....shouldn't you focus on the situation we have right now? The question is......what is he doing? What does he want in here?"

"Who cares? As long as I don't wanna be here to find out....let's get out of here."

So we sneak past those ghosts to avoid any unwanted attention, as we passedby Nya's Samurai Mech when all of a sudden it activated by itself. I glared at Hunter and she protest, "Don't look at me......"I watched as the Samurai mech blasted in the air and it landed on the opposite direction. I was surprised when I recognize who was on the mech; Nya. I watched as she fought in action but with no progress coz her metal weapon won't work against them. I do know is that water affects them and our spiritual weapon are very effective. Hunter said softly, "Ok now that's covers it.....Let's skidaddle."as she sneak pass very quickly and I followed her. I wanted to help but I couldn't......

I saw Soul Archer was about to shoot her when something flying just blocked it. It looked like a guy with an eye patch in a hat. Until I recognized him, he's the guy who kidnapped Zane and sold him to Chen. I don't know ]why he was with her, Hunter looked over my shoulder and said, "Hey thats ronin, that little conniving thief. For some reason you know him even you don't know him."

"So that's Ronin.....Let's just he's the one who sold to Zane to Chen in the first place."

"Huh typical we gotta go like now....."

I was about to leave until I saw Morro used his wind to tossed objects at them. Ronin manage to dodged them but it was heading straight at Nya. I couldn't stand any longer as I turned off my invisible and Hunter gave me the what-the-heck look. I shouted, "Ancient Claw."as the dark claws appeared in my hand as I destroyed the big object in half. I totally blew it coz now Nya knos I'm here. "V-Vatu, What are you doing here?" "Let's just say.....I happened int the neighbourhood."I said as I draw out my katanas. Ronin said who was surprised, "Woah.....there's something you don't see everyday. A samurai with an ear and a tail."

I groaned at his ignorance, "And look at that, the thief whose soul was about to get cursed into the cursed realm."

"huh.....how did you know that?"

"Let's just say your aura stinks....."I said using to sense aura. Every people has aura but for Ronin's case his aura was half white and half green. The white one represents his but the green represents the cursed chain meaning he did something worst. Morro and the ghosts were surprised of what they expected. The female ghost hissed, "You..."I blinked when I recognize her from the cursed realm. "Woah.....Bansha huh funny seeing you here."Soul archer said, "so if it isn't the traitor who returns...."

Ronin stared at me with a suspicious look, 'traitor?....wait is this guy from the cursed realm? How was that...? ' "You should have stayed there....."Bansha sneered at me. "Gee thx but i preferred my own freedom."I scoffed as I got into my fighting stance. Morro was about to do something, i think. Ronin said, "He's calling reinforcement."Nya said, "that...i can deal with."As she blasted from the canon and that weird ball just stuck onto the armor. Ronin turned to Nya, "Your gonna blow up your friend."I said vaguely, "Seriously?!" "oh....yeah...maybe i didn't think that through"She said awkward. It forced Morro to get rid of it and we had to dodge it before it finally exploded. Ronin manage to dodge it but he didn't know Soul Archer was about to shoot him. The arrow was about to hit him until he was saved by blurred person.

Ronin opened his eye and saw who it was. "Woah...Hunter I didn't expect you to be here."Hunter humphed, "I can't believe I'm saving this guy....Look don't think I help you, doesn't mean we're not."Morro commanded their ghosts to destroy us but instead they just grabbed Nya's Samurai Mech. Nya managed to eject herself from her mech. I'm glad she safe but thats the worst part you see becoz of that, Ghoul Tar possessed her suit and transformed it into a four armed machine. HUnter said mildly, "OK...I do know ghosts can go through anything but this.....looks bad."

"No, they're not taking my suit!" Nya said worriedly but Ronin stopped her as he carried her over his shoulder. "Well, I'm taking you!" he replied.

"Hey! Let go of me!"

Hunter said bluntly, "We gotta go like NOw?!"As we started running, Ghoultar swing his sword at us but Ronin manage to dodge it while Hunter grabbed me and used the grappling hook to evade it. I notice Ronin whistled for some reason then outside I saw an airship right in front of us so I guess he called for it. We run for it but Morro stopped on it. "Boo." The ghosts surrounded Nya and Ronin, even us too. Hunter said vaguely, "Well don't just stand there, do something!" I said defiantly, "What am I suppose to do? That ghost has a Big Mech."

"What?! Some Spirit Guardian you are."

Nya stared at me with a confused look when she said, 'Spirit Guardian?' We knew it was over for us. But just as they were to attack, drops of rain fell. I looked up in the sky and it really was raining. "Augh!" Bansha flew under the machine as did Soul Archer. "Leave them. We have what we came for." Morro flew off on his dragon and Ghoul Tar followed. We were safe for now but we were confuse why it rained. "Rain? In the middle of the dry season?" Ronin questioned. Hunter said, "the weather didn't mentioned raining today...."

Nya said dryly, "What luck, right?"

"I don't think that's luck. Face it, Nya. You really the Water Ninja." Nya looked up at the sky, the rain still falling. Wait....what did he say? My eye's widened and blurted, "Wait....YOUR A WATER NINJA?" Hunter said looking amused, "A water ninja? I thought you said she's a samurai."

"WHen did that happen?"

Nya explained to me that Kai told her what Chen told him, which caused them to look into it and confirm their father was the previous Master of Fire which she isn't surprised by. Misako then points out that their mother was the previous Master of Water, which she is surprised by. Wu then says that since Kai took on the traits of their father to become the Fire Ninja, Nya must follow in their mother's footsteps and train to become the Water Ninja. Which led me to a depressed sigh, "No way.....She is now a water ninja....." Hunter snickered, "At least your the only samurai.....don't worry they're might be others. C'mon we gotta go."

Ronin said a teasing tone at the edge of his voice , "Your leaving already? I kinda getting used to having you around."

"Too bad, I think you should get used to not having me around. So keep your thieving hands all to yourself."Hunter said sounding annoyed as her back turn. We were about to leave until Nya stopped us. Nya asked suspiciously, "Wait there's one thing I don't understand; What were you guys doing in the Cave? And what did she meant by Spirit Guardian?" Uh-oh thx to HUnter's big mouth she was getting suspicious about my existence. I couldn't tell her about our mission when Hunter grabbed me by the waist. Hunter said, "We luv to tell you but it's classified so its best to keep it between us."as she shot her grappling hook and we were pulled away from them. I stared at Nya who was confuse and yet curious about it however I even regret myself for not telling her that we snuck inside and borrow one of the thermal couplings. We got into motorbike as we head back to Stixx. Also, I can't believe Nya has become a Water Ninja. 

Peeking through the past

JInmay's POV

Poor VAtu, I felt ashamed that I forgot to mentioned about NYa being the water ninja in my vision. Vatu was exasperated that Nya is no longer a samurai and he's been speaking through my head the whole night. Anyway, I was able to master my Airjitzu thx to Rava's teaching. It really was cool when you fly than using wind with a staff glider. The next day, we found the blind's man eye while flying on a dragon and RAva was able to used clouds to make us stand there and used Airjitzu to get inside. When I opened my eyes thenl ooked ahead , I asked, "Um....Rava is that what i think it was?" "I think it is, Mistress." Rava said with a smile. We were in Cloud Kingdom now and I was amazed at the giant buildings and flying ships. It was just like in Rava's memories and I was the first to see it, wait till Vatu hear about this.

"Whoa this is just like from the space movies" I gawked, Rava shot me an odd look and we all began to walk into the city. We couldn't let anyone see us so Rava found two robes which I had no idea where she get it as we disguise ourselves in order to blend in. As we walked through the streets it looked almost as if they were in Heaven itself. There were people in robes everywhere and there was no violence to be seen. It was really quite peaceful. "Are you sure we're not dead?" I asked curiously, " No, Mistress we're not " Rava assured her.

"Phew...that's relief."

"Anyway we should find the sword before morro gets here."'

"You know where it is....." "of course its few blocks away."

"*deep sigh* I just hope so......"

We continued walking without letting them notice us. I thought, 'if this is where they wrote destiny....I wonder if any scrolls know about my origin. '

"Mistress, is something bothering you"

"No not at all......"

Rava stared at me curiosity and we were about to head to a left turn.That's when we were approached by a hooded monk who happen to see us. He walked up to us curiously yet with caution coz he notice we're not from around. He asked, "who are you? I don't usually see your face around." 'this is bad, at this rate he's going to report it.'I thought with worry. He was about to say something when he saw Rava. For some reason his eye widened as if he know her. He stared closely at Rava and said, "Are my eyes deceiving me?......Sinha Is that you?"Rava gave a blank face wondering how he know her other name. The monk then pulled his hood down to reveal light blue hair and blue eyes. "Its me.....don't you recognize me?"Rava looked at him closely until she said with joy, "Shiro.....you've grown."He looked happy as he suddenly gave a hug to her. "I thought I never see you again."he said delight.

"Me too.....my friend. But this isn't a place for us to be....."

He stared at us for a second and understood the situation as he kindly led us to a tower where they're only extra scrolls with no people in it. "things have changed since Fenwick took over as the Master Writer."He said to her.

"Fenwick?!"She said ominously when he heard that name. "So he become the next Master writer then what happen to the previous?"

" We heard that you left the kingdom and our old master was feeling depressed when he heard about your disappearance. I felt very grieved when I saw your name vanished from the scroll as if you never existed. He told us that you left us becoz you didn't want to be the master writer. after he left this world, fenwick was appointed as the new "

"I didn't left the kingdom.....Fenwick tricked me and pushed me into the Blind's Man eye. I've been trapped in NInjago while trying to get back but it was hopeless"

"Fenwick did that?! I cannot believe he would that. If only I stayed by yourside none of this happen."

"DOn't distress yourself, beside I have a new destiny and a duty to fulfill."

"Wait.....TImes have passed when your name disappeared but yet here you are. How can you be here when your not? What do you mean by new destiny?

Rava slowly removed her hood which made him surprise. "Sinha....you haven't age, your still the same. How is that possible?"Rava gave a disturbing look and explained about her life and how she became a Spirit Guardian of Sky. When hearing that story, Shiro was pretty shocked about it. He said, "So you go by the name Rava now.....I cannot believe you became a spirit guardian.....But the Spirit Master disappeared from this world."

"True.....Now I'm serving the descendant of the Spirit Master"She stated. I removed my hood so that he could see my face. "Sinha.....Who is this?" He said kindly. "So your Shiro...Nice to meet you," I smiled, "I am JInmay Ender,raised in Iona Village, and the master of spirits."

"Oh! Your The new Spirit Master, welcome, welcome. I am entirely a fan of your character! Your nobility is just so...inspiring."

"Gee, Thx...."

"Its strange to see a new spirit master, I heard SPirit Master lived through many ages and she vanish from this world."

"YEah....Its hard to explained........Is something wrong?"

"Oh I'm sorry Its just your face.....you look exactly like her."

'Her', I thought, 'COuld it be Zecora?'

Rava interrupt, "Listen we were on a mission right now and we're here for the sword of Sanctuary."

"The Sword? BUt Why?"

"A great evil is coming after it which is why we need it."

"I want to help you SInha but I cannot help you....I'm not allowed to meddle with your destiny."

"I understand you monks don't keep promises."

"HUh why Rava?"I asked concerned. She answered, "Becoz mistress their job is to write destiny, not to intervene. In the mean time, it was nice meeting you Shiro. I was glad I met you"We were about to leave until I asked him, "You keep records of every event, right?"Shiro said curious, "Yes we do master of spirit."

"Do you have the events about How I came this world?!"

Rava and Shiro gave a anxious look, realizing that I wanted to know where I come from. Shiro asked, "do you really want find out about your origin?"I stared back at Rava as she spoke telepathic, 'Mistress we need the sword.....'

'I know but I want to know about my origin, beside the more about myself the better. Pls Rava'

Rava thought about it how desperate I am, since she remember that I help them regain their true name and their memories. Rava placed her hand on my shoulder and answered, "If that is your wish, I must respect that. Very well then Shiro will you reveal her origin. I know you don't keep promises but as a friend pls help her."Shiro notice her behavior was different and smiled, "Sinha, you've changed since we met. Before I remember you never share your feelings but now you did. It was inspiring and noble of how you treat your friends. Very well as a friend I will do it for you."

"Good Mistress I want you to go with him. He will guide you there."

I asked, "What about you? What will you do Rava?"

"I will keep a look out ....Let me know when your done, I'll wait for you so we can get the sword. Also you must not let the monks or Fenwick see you becoz he doesn't know we're here and he doesn't know your the spirit master."

I nodded at her as we came out of the tower, Shiro asked, "Sinha....you do not wish to join us."Rava looked at him wuth a gentle eye and rubbed his head, "If I stay here, they will know I'm here."

"But it would better if you do....you could replace him and be the master writer. Your the perfect true master."

"Shiro there is no perfection in my world, we all have our own story and I have but one noble destiny. I am no longer a monk, I am an archer who lived to serve. Beside they're many things I like to discover."

"Sinha....." "Sinha huh its been long, anyone had called me that."

As we watched her left another road while we just stood there. I turned to him to make sure he's ok. He said, "She gotten stronger when she met her, I'm glad you were there for her."I gave a confident look as I flipped my hood back up, "And thank you for being by her side."

"Come, I must give you a tour of where I live before we go. " The young monk said, we walked further down the cloud paved road towards a tall building. I have to keep my hood on so no one would know a Spirit Master such as herself could come here. Inside the tall building, monks were each busy writing everyone's destinies."Here we are, this is where we write down everyone's destiny. We make the greatest of decisions here." Shiro said.

I looked around, all around they could see monks at desks writing in scrolls. "Wow,you guys write destiny?" I asked. The young monk replied, "I'm sure you've already heard that we write everyone's destiny. That is abslutely correct. In fact, Jinmay, it was here where the Green Ninja's Prophecy was first prophesied. Here we decided that he would be the one to fight with the ninja to save Ninjago."I was amazed when he talked about the green ninja and how every event happen since the past months. As I continued going along the tour.

MINUTES LATER

"As you can see, here we put our words into account so they are worth something." Shiro explained, still giving me a tour of the monastery. By now I'm bored out of my minds."This is boring," I grumbled under my breath, "I mean, who cares about writing destiny?! All I wanted to know is my origin that's it."

"WHich is why we are going there right now,"He added. We head inside another monastery which is kinda kinda quiet in here. All i see were scrolls, candles and some incense, It looked alot like a dojo back in Dareth's place but different. Shiro mentioned, "this is a place where we meditate and calm our minds. It used to be Sinha's favorite place to be when she was alone."I turned to him when he mentioned about Rava, so this was her usual place before.

I sat down on the mat and I saw he was getting an incense and some scrolls. He placed them in front of me and said, "Your friend used this technique to see through the past history. Once this incense lightened, you might be able to use the eye of ages to help you focus."

"you know about the the Eye?!"

"of course evryone knows, even the shimu staff that was made."

"HUh yeah I just saw Rava's memories so I knew where it came from."

"So you also had the ability to see other spirit memories. If it work on your friends, maybe it might work on these. After all, old scrolls can also be seen in the past"

I stared at the scrolls that was in front of me and it was all about Zecora however her destiny wasn't written there, I guess I knew it is her story after all but what about mine? Is my destiny written there just like Lloyd?. "Ok....now what?"I said, trying to think of something else. I watched as he light up the incense when I smell it, it had a great aroma fragrance as it was the smell of cherry blossom.

All of sudden, my eyes are getting heavy. I stared at the young monk who was sitting in front of me become blurred. No matter how hard I try to keep my eyes open, I was fallen into a deep sleep.

When I opened my eyes, I realize I'm not in cloud kingdom anymore I'm more like floating in mid air and the surroundings looked blue light. Not only that I saw a strange man in robe standing before me. I had no idea ho he is and why is he here. I ask hesitantly, "Um.....Who are you?"He looked at me with a calm face and replied, "Greetings, I am the previous Master Writer....I have been waiting for you, young spirit master."

"Wait....you do?"

"I knew the day Sinha's story would begin, even the huntsboy as well."

"Y'know Vatu and Rava....you mean you knew something might happen?"

"Yes I chose them from the very beginning right after Zecora disappeared from this world."

I blinked at him realizing that he was talking about Zecora but what did he meant right after. "Do you know where I come from?"

"yes.....but first I will tell you a story of how the First Spinjitzu Master and the First Spirit Master met? It all started when it was exactly one year after the First Spinjitzu Master defeated the Overlord and Ninjago is finally at peace...... "

As the light began to surround me and I felt like my mind was in a trance filled with memories of the past of someone.

Glimpse of Past

The people of Ninjago at peace, going about their daily lives. The sun was out, the people were working, and the children were playing. It was truly peaceful. Suddenly, a door opens up. the First Spinjitzu Master was standing there with a smile on his face. (A/N This was the first time Jinmay actually seen The First Spinjitzu Master.)

The First Spinjitzu Master looked down from atop his mountain and watched the world he created finally at peace. The Overlord had been defeated a year ago and all was well. The First Spinjitzu Master chuckled slightly and disappeared into a puff of smoke. He was next seen in the village down below. Everyone was first startled by his appearance, but their surprise quickly turned into smiles. All the children ran up and hugged his legs, while the First Spinjitzu Master and the adults laughed."It's really you." A little boy said. "Yes, it's me." The First Spinjitzu Master chuckled."Come here, son. We're sorry about him, you're just his hero." The boy's mother said."I'm flattered. Thank you" The Master asked. The little boy gasped and the Master chuckled again.

Later, he was began watching the kids playing with their ball until it went into the forest. The Spinjitzu Master smiled at them and told he will get it for them. As he was about to bring the ball back when he heard a melodious voice that is echoing through the forest. He never heard such a sweet voice so he followed it as he notice there was a tint of light going to the same direction. When he reached there, he saw a young lady in a kimono dancing and singing in the forest, not only that lights he saw earlier was gathering around her who happens to be glowing. She had never seen a lady who was so elegant and beautiful. He was drawn by her dance gracefully as the lights began to shine brightly. He wanted take a closer look until he made the sound. Startle by it, the lights stopped where they are and the lady turned to his direction.

His face lit up as he met her sparkling eye, the lights vanished the moment they saw him and she stopped glowing. He notice that she backed away nervously then she ran. He called, "Wait....come back I didn't mean..."it was too late as she disappeared into the forest. When he came back, the kids were delighted to see the ball again. The man couldn't help quite notice the spinjitzu master expression. He asked, "Is something bothering you?" The master said, "May I ask? Do you know a maiden who was singing in the forest?"

"A maiden?"

"Yes she has blue curly long hair and purple kimono."

"I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that description, I don't she's not from around."

He was back in the Monastery, he wondered who was that beautiful maiden in the forest. Her eyes dazzle like stars and hair was darker as the night. He wanted to know whether he see her again. He stared at the golden weapons that was displayed on the wall when all of a sudden the weapons began to glow almost as if it was resonating. He took the one of the golden weapons as he went outside. He pointed his nunchucks as if it was a dowsing rod. When the weapon pointed at the forest it began to glow dimly. Later, he was walking in the forest still following the golden weapon glowing when he reached the tree, It glowed brighter. He looked aorund to see what it was reacting when he saw a silvery light glowing. He went over to see what it was which turned out to be a silver joystick. He doesn't know why his weapon was glowing as he picked up the silver stick when all of a sudden it morphed into a staff. He was surprised when it change, he wondered if it can change into sword and it did almost like it heard his thought. He was amazed by its power but wondered who it belong to. He remembered a maiden who was forest and think it might belong to her. So he waited tomorrow to get a chance to see her.

The next day, he was holding the silver weapon wandering around the forest until he saw a ball of light again floating around. He recalled a lady dancing with the lights. He followed as he reached there, it was the lady again but this time she was sitting on the hills where the glowing lights surrounded. He approached to her silently so he won't frightened her. He watched as she closed her eyes and sang the most soothing voice.

there was a tale called once upon a time, we'll fly away for centuries.

Tonight, you'll make a wish.

when the ocean waves, beneath the shore.

it was a beautiful wish on that blue island then you will find

the world is filled with love and hope.

Na na na na na

na na naahh naahh

The song echoed throughout the forest and it was filled with peace and harmony. The Spinjitzu Master never heard such harmonic song and yet she had a depressed look on her face. He stared at the silver staff as he slowly came out of hiding behind her. She stopped which made the glowing lights fade as she turned around to see it was the man from yesterday. She doesn't know what to do but used her element power. She used fire element to scare him but he deflect it by using water element. He was shocked when she has the same elemental power as he does. SHe asked, "You have elemental powers too....."

She was surprised when she spoke so he replied, "Yes i do...." She closed her eyes for a minute as her body began to glow. He looked at her wondering why is she glowing as it turned off. She opened her eyes and said, "So it's you....the master who created Ninjago and yet your powers is similar to mine."

The master stared at her eyes, its like he was drawn to it. He notice she was about to leave again but he grabbed her by the wrist. She turned to see that he grabbed her, Her hand was soft and slender. He questioned showing the staff, "Wait....I'm sorry for startling you yesterday. May I ask? Is this your weapon."Her eye's widened as she grabbed it and said with delight, "Oh thank you, you have no idea I've been searching for my shimu staff. I thought I lost it....."

"SHimu staff? Is that the name of the silver weapon? I had no idea it can morph into any weapons."

"Y'knew how it works?"

"My golden weapons react to yours, I want to know is.....who are you? And those lights that were following. What are they?"

She blinked at him and asked, "You....can see them...."They stood there for second when he sense something as he let go of her and grabbed the arrow. Then out of nowhere a young archer appeared beside the maiden. She aimed her bow at him, "GEt away from our mistress...."as she started shooting at him. The Spinjitzu master manage to evade the attack. The archer fought the master as he was able to read her moves. He was about to strike her until he was pinned down by a white wolf. The wolf growled at his face while the archer pointed her bow at him. "Who are you? How dare you touch our mistress, now you will pay."She said angrily as she readied her bow until the maiden interrupted, "Sahone Sinha stand down he meant no harm."the two stared at her, Sinha asked, "But why mistress? He try to assault you."

"Oh Sinha you've been overacting. That is no way to treat a master......"

Both of them were confused what she meant. The wolf got off the master as it morphed into a samurai which surprises him. The samurai pointed at him, "Master? What do you mean.....? He's some guy whose just wearing a strange kimono."

The lady chuckled, "Sahone This man you spoke of.....is the spinjitzu master who created Ninjago. It might be terrible if something happens...."They were shocked as they turned to him. "YOu mean..... Your the Spinjitzu Master....the Golden MAster"Sinha said as she quickly got down on her kness and bowed also dragged Sahone to bow too. Sahone said, "Hey what are you....?" Sinha said apologetic, "Forgive us, Golden Master, we didn't mean to attack you. We thought you were someone suspicious, trying to harm our mistress. We were so ashamed for what we did to...."The Spinjitzu Master assured, "Oh no pls stand up its ok you don't have to apologise like that. I'll forgive but *turn to Sahone* I had no idea you can transform into a wolf. You have a wolf ear and a tail despite of a samurai."

Sahone answered, "Actually, I'm not the only who can turn into an animal. Sinha can turned into a crow. Also, We may look human but we're actually spirit guardians. In other words, we're half spirit and half curse. I'm the Guardian of the forest and she's the guardian of the sky.""Spirit Guardian? I never heard of something like that in Ninjago."The master turned to the maiden. She said with a smile, "They we're bound to loyalty to me only when they fulfilled their deed."He looked confused and asked, "Who are you exactly?"

"May I ask your name before I tell you mine?"

Sahone said worry, "Uh Is it necessary to tell him your name?"

"Why not? It is natural to greet a fellow master."SHe said to him. The spinjitzu master was surprised when she asked his so he hesitantly answered, "My name is Yoshi Montgomery, the First Spinjitzu Master and yours....?" (A/N made up name ok).

She placed her hand in her chest and replied politely, "My name is Zecora, the First Spirit Master."

In the Monastary

The Spirit Master and Spinjitzu master were chatting at each other while Sahone and Sinha were busy training themselves. "The First Spirit Master? I thought I was the only master here in this world."He said to himself"*giggle* That's becoz I'm not from this realm. I'm from the spirit realm that is one of among the 16 realms. And those lights you saw were actually lost souls seeking home."She said to him

"FRom the spirit realm? 16 realms? You mean they're are other realms beside here. But how?"

"I have the ability to travel through 16 realms, it is my job purify souls and guide them home. "

"I see.....I had no idea you posses such spiritual powers and not only that do elemental powers."

"Yes I watched the world how time gone by, years after years. Everything changes around me while i was in the spirit realm. And that's how I knew about you....I watched how you created this world and defeated the Overlord."

"Yes I did what I had to do....beside it needs balance. When there is light, there is shadow. I realized the mistake for creating him so I had to. The world can't have the other."

"I know....its to keep the balance steady. However, you brought peace to this world and began to watch over Ninjago."

They were staring at skies where they hear the birds singing and the wind breezing. He turned to her and he couldn't help this feeling that whenever she was around him, he felt nervous. Even the Spirit Master couldn't help it too, she sense that he was staring at her as she turned to him he just looked away. He asked, "Zecora....I wonder what its like in 16 realms."He felt something as he turned and she was right in front of his face. She question, "DO you really want see it?" He was so curious as he nod his head. They both stand up and she called her companion, "Sahone, Sinha its time we show our friend here. Our true nature of work...."

Sinha said with concerned, "Mistress, Is it wise to bring him to the spirit realm?"

"Don't worry Sinha, he's only visiting for a short time so relax."

Sahone said enthusiasm, wrapping his arm around her, "Yeah dude you chill back and relax. I'm pretty sure he will be in best behavior, right? Spinjitzu Master...."He shrugged with response, "Right, I will...."Sinha sighed with disappointment and removed his arm. "If that's what she wished, I must respect that."The spirit Master smile and instructed the Master, "Listen, you must stay close to us at all times. The Spirit Realm could be complicated for you...."He said, "I understand but how do you get to...?"he was cut off when the spirit master chanted somkind of spell as her eyes began to glow. The light began to engulf all around him.

As he opened his eyes and realize he wasn't in Ninjago. In fact, his surroundings looked different, they were standing in the hills. He saw a floating jellyfish which is unbelievable even he saw strange creatures playing around unlike he ever seen. He looked up to see a floating islands where there is waterfall. As he was about to walk forward until Sahone warned, "Woah watch your step, young master."He looked down and saw he was almost at the edge. The master said, "thx um....sahone."

"Nah no biggie...."

The spirit master gave a tour around the spirit realm and told her companions to watch over him just in case he doesn't fall into another edge. He was amazed what he saw, they're spirits everywhere and he fly onto a flying mantray. As they landed on their destination, It was surrounded with crystal fragments branch that look like bushes or trees. he questioned, wondering about her existence, "Zecora, is this where you came from?"She replied, "Yes this is where i came from and it is my duty to watch over the harmony of all the realms. Also just so you know I don't age here."

"DOn't age!? But you look so young......Then how were you watching over the realms?"

"*pointing her eyes revealing a glowing purple* Its true i have the shimu staff that can morph, elemental power and a spiritual power to sense spirits. THere is one most important power i posses; the Eye of Ages. It enables me to see the future and see conflicts even predict your opponents movement. It also allows me to see through all the realms."

"The eye of ages? I had no idea it can do that, so you can't age here and you can go any realms whatever you want."

"Of course I can open portals or we use these crystals to take us anywhere."

"You mean those fragments were...."

"Yes realm crystals that can open to 16 realms...."

She touched one of the realms revealing the underworld, the shadow world and other realms. She closed them and explained how it works, she had to ensure the realms has to remained balance so there won't be a distortion.

The Spirit Master said, "Now then we must head back to where we came, we don't wanna damage any of them."As they were about to head back when the the master couldn't help quite notice he saw one realm wasn't close as he walk towards it. He stared at the cavern and sense a darkness he never felt before. He wondered what lies beyond as if his curiosity was drawn to it.

As he gotten closer, it felt like something pulling him. He was about to go further when he was pulled away by Sahone. They were farther away from the cavern before it closes as he arrived with Sinha and The spirit master. Sinha said worry, "What were you doing there? YOu are not suppose to wander off." The master replied, "My apologise, I sense a demonic essence coming from one of the realm, it looked like a cave."Sinha and Sahone looked at each other as the Spirit Master said, "That cave you saw is world that's connected to this world. That is the Cursed Realm where the Preehiminent was."

"Preehiminent? What is that?"

She explained everything about the cursed realm to him (A/N the one Fenwick explained to the ninjas from kingdom come, so you know all about it) He was shocked when he had no idea there was a cursed realm beside the spirit realm. As they got back from Ninjago, He turned to the Spirit MAster who is still opening a portal. "I must go now, they're spirits that need to be sent back." She said as she was about to leave when he stopped her. "Wait Zecora....Before you go, will you come visit some time? Becoz I like having you around, someone to talk to." He said. SHe looked at him and respond, "I'll be happy too......"as she left the portal.

The next day, The Spinjitzu Master was in the village still thinking about her. HE couldn't believe he met a beautiful maiden. He'd seen the Spirit Realm and many other realms unlike he ever seen. The villager kids saw him as they asked if he wants to play. The kids were huddling and clutching on his legs and arms. While the kids were playing when they saw someone watching him. He wondered who are they staring at as he turned and was surprised to see who it was. The Spirit Master and her two guardians appeared before them. He went to her and said, "You...You came" The Spirit Master chuckled, "Of course I came....after all I told you we would meet, Yoshi"THe kids gathered around them and the boy asked, "Master who is this Lady?" He introduced to them, "This is Zecora, the first Spirit Master who came from the Spirit Realm. These two are Spirit guardians, Sahone and Sinha"The kids were surprised but they are some who don't. The fat boy said, "I don't believe your a spirit master even those two."

Sahone said with a grin, knelt down to their height, "Oh really? Well then....If we're not real, feel free to touch my ears and tail if you want."The little girl was the first to touch them and she was shocked when its soft. The little girl said, "Hey his tail and ears are real...."the kids began to touched them and he felt ticklish. Sahone stood up and said, "Hey do you wanna see really cool?" the kids nod their heads eager to know as he closed his eye and morph into his wolf form. The kids were amazed by his form as they began to touch him. The boy said, "He's cool....Zecora is it ok if we play with him." SHe smiled and replied, "Be my guess...." the kids played with a wolf, they're even some who wants to ride on him.

She turned to the Spinjitzu Master, "these kids are playful, you often play with them." he smiled at her and notice the kids were tugging at Sinha who was not comfortable with it. "Sinha what's wrong? Why aren't you joining him?"He asked. Sinha replied, "My form is a crow I don't think they don't appreciate it."the kids were awed that she wasn't morphing so the girl asked, "THen what can you do? SHow us pls" Sinha sighed cast an illusion object that appeared in her hand. THey were surprise they saw a floating whale (From steven universe) ,the kids try to touch it but disappeared. They sighed in disappointment, Sinha saw her faces as she gave a deep sigh and focus her power. She made butterflies appeared around them and the kids were astound. The butterfly landed on the girl's hand even though it was an illusion but they were having fun.

THe Spinjitzu Master and the Spirit Master couldn't help but chuckled as The kids beg Sinha to do another and play with them. Sinha said sheepishly, "Um...Lady Zecora what must I do? They kept clinging on me."The Spinjitzu master said, "Just play with them, the kids luvs your trick."

"I cast illusion only but i don't see why it isn't relevant to our duty?"

Sahone said who was now in human form lifting one boy, "C'mon Sinha, you maybe the mightiest warrior but there's a time to have fun and relax before the battle."

The Spirit Master agreed, "He's right....Its best that you must relax and enjoy for time." Sinha stared at her for a minute as her cheeks turned pink. "very well, if that's what Lady Zeora wish....I should enjoy for awhile."As she went with them, the kids were enjoying with the two while the Masters were sitting and watching them play. THe Spinjitzu Master said, "You know those two really are enjoying it...." The Spirit Master replied, "Yes after all.... they were cursed until I changed their fate and became my bodyguards.

"So how did you met those two exactly..."

Both of them are having a conversation and she explained their origin of the day they met, even their travels. He was amazed how she's been traveling so many realms. It was hard work watching over the harmony of the realms. Later, He went into someone house along with the Spirit Master. THe father and the child greeted them. SHe wondered why he was visiting this house. The Master asked the boy, "How was your mother?" the boy shrugged and gave a sad look, "Still not looking good today..... as always."They followed the boy into the room, revealing his mother in bed. Her body and health looked weak.THe spirit master asked what happened and he explained that the boy's mother had an illness and she's been in bed for a week.

The boy said with sadness, "No matter how hard we took care of her, she'll never get better. If only my mom was cured, she could be healthy again."as he was about to cry. The Spirit Master felt sad about the boy's mother health. THe Spinjitzu Master said hopefully, "Don't give up child, I believe there's still hope that she will be cured."

"You really think so....?"

"As long as there's hope, anything is possible."

The boy smiled trying to be confident as he went to help his father. THe Spinjitzu Master was about to follow when he notice The Spirit Master was beside the bed.

"Yoshi, what makes you believe there's still hope for her?"She asked him. He notice the looks on her face that she was curious so he smiled and answered, "You don't facts to know, you just have to keep on believing. BEside there's always hope that will bring happiness."

She was stirred by his answered and understood what he meant. She turned to the boy's mother, "Hope....? That word really is an amazing word. Perhaps anything is impossible."He was confused what she was on about when he notice she placed her on the boy's mother and she was mumbling something. All of a sudden, the boy's mother began to glow as glimmering lights gathered around her. THe father and the boy came and saw it, they asked what she was doing. As the glowing dissipated, the boy's mother opened her eyes and got up from her bed. She stretched herself and said, "I'm....feeling better, my sickness it's gone." the father and the boy were shocked as they tend to her, the father could not believe that his wife was cured. THe Spinjitzu Master asked impressed, "What did you do?" The Spirit Master replied, "I purify her sickness so that she gets better, as you said there's always hope that will bring happiness."

The family thanked the masters for curing her as they give gift basket. As they head back, Sinha and Sahone were waiting for her. SHe turned to him, "I must head back to the Spirit REalm, there's somethings to do there" "Really? That was pretty soon..."He said with a repressed sigh. SHe noticed his expression and knew that he was disappointed that she might leave again. So she assured, "Don't worry I'll come back and visit again." which satisfy him as they left the village.

The days passed, The spirit master began to visit the spinjitzu master everyday. They talked about their lives and shared a common. He showed her how he can moved the mountains while she show him to make spirits appeared. He was amazed that he can see spirits in NInjago even though people cannot see. Not until that time, both of them began to developed an attachment to each other even when they smile and laugh. The guardians notice about it and were puzzled about their atmosphere.

The next morning, The spinjitzu master was sitting on the temple, thinking about her. He knew he couldn't stop thinking about her but he wondered if she had feelings too. He doesn't what to do as he began to drink his tea.

"Dude....for a spinjitzu master you really are slow when it comes to woman...."

The spinjitzu master turned to see it was Sahone who happen to visit. He swallowed, "Sahone...wha-what are you doing here?"

"Coming to visit for awhile......"

"shouldn't u be with ur friend and Zecora?"

"Nah I ask permission to Zecora to check up on you. FOr some reason, you seemed to grow attached her."

"really well.....I mean that's strange is it?"

Sahone shook his head as he sat beside him and said, "Its ok...you don't have to hide it becoz i know you like her as a friend."THe Spinjitzu Master stared at him and let out a sigh. He said truthfully, "its not becoz i like her as a friend....Its just everytime i looked at her, i couldn't stop thinking about her. Her smile, her personality and we shared a common thoughts....It's like i felt a connection to her." Sahone tilted his head, realizing what he meant and he saeteid ominously, "Yoshi....you love her, don't yu?" THe Spinjitzu Master turned to him and said calmly, "i guess i can't hide it from you anymore. I developed feelings for her since we first met. She was the most fascinating person in the realm and I cared for her so much. I wanted to tell her but I don't whether she accepts it."

"Hey....if you really wanted to tell her how you feel, just say it in front of her."

"I don't know if can but it might be silly for me to say it to her."

"*place his hand on the shoulder* Its ok to be afraid but you know when your feeling scared, you need to control that fear and don't let fear control you."

"*chuckle* YOu know something, you really have wise word. I should learn it from you."

"Sure you do, anyway I have to go I heard the forest is calling me.....just tell her how much you cared for her."as he left the monastery and morph into his wolf form. THe Spinjitzu Master thought about what he said to him and wondered if this is the time to tell her.

It was night time, He wandered through the forest again and he finally saw her. She was surrounded by fireflies, he might mistaken into thinking its a spirits. He said behind her, "You know you really are part of nature."

The Spirit Master turned to see him delighted, "Well unless you are one with them." They laugh at each other a bit as they stared at each other in the eye.

"Um....Zecora I wanted to tell you something...."

"I know what your going to say...."

"YOu do?"

"Is it true that.....you have feelings for me?"

"How did you know? Did Sahone told you that?"

"No....the eye showed me a vision about you and sahone talking about some matter. To be honest, I had no idea you developed feelings about me."

His cheeks turned rather pink. "Oh... you heard that?" She nodded confirmation, and he placed his hand on his head."I -it's okay if you don't f-feel the same way... a-as long as we can stay friends, th-that would be okay for me, honest," he eked out, "you and I don't have to-"

"Yoshi....that would be nice, i know its ok but it'll never work out between us."

"What do you mean, Zecora?"

"Your a human and I'm a being who doesn't age....we are in opposite world. In truth, I felt the same way as you do ever since we meet and i wanted to spend time with you but you won't be....I'm different from you." as she crossed her arms and looked down. He felt sorry for her that she came from a different realm where a world with no time passed. He said, " its true we are different but your still you. No matter who you are or which realm you came from....I....I still love you always till the end of time."

She looked up at him, who had moved forward so that their chests were almost touching. "yoshi.....I..." she asked, stunned with tone in her voice as he stared at her. He stared at her evenly for what felt like forever but was really only ten seconds before leaning in and putting his lips to hers. She froze before she closed her eyes and the two of them stood there like that for a moment, pressing their lips together gently, before he leaned away and smiled at her, incredibly softly. felt a little smile creep onto her face... a brighter expression lit up in her eyes...And then her cheeks flushed"You know, this is the first time anyone has given me a gift and your the first person to do that."she stated. . "Oh. Um..." the two of them turned with a sheepish expression to each other.

He asked, "Let us watch over the harmony of the worlds.....together."He clutched her hand as she smiled at him and rested on his chest. They were hugging in the middle of the forest but they didn't know her spirit guardians who were all watching with deadpan faces. And Sahone was glad that he had taken his advice but for Sinha, she was concern about their relationship.

After years gone by, their love has grown stronger and they never left each other sides. They watched over Ninjago and became protectors. They fought side by side along with their spirit guardians. She kept singing for him so he could hear her melodious music. The spirit master has often visiting the spirit realm and sending spirits home. As she returned back, the guardians couldn't help quite notice that she's been exhausted from that trip. They were worried about her coz they never seen her being weakened before as they her gotten close to the spinjitzu master.

IT was night time, they were asleep on the monastary till the spirit master snuck out for awhile so he won't wake up the spinjitzu master as she stood at the courtyard staring at the sky. SInha and Sahone appeared behind her. Sinha said concern, "Mistress....there's something we need to talk."Sahone said, "Yeah for some reason, you've been exhausted everytime you came back from the spirit realm and you didn't tell master yoshi about your condition." She gave a blank face and knew she couldn't hide secret from them anymore. She said deep sigh, "It would seem you notice...I can't hide it from you. Sinha Sahone I have a confession to make; my spiritual powers somehow gotten weakened."

Sinha said, "What? But how was that possible? Your the spirit master....you can't be weakened by all that strength."

"True....I'm afraid it must have been the sacrilege that is the cause of it."

Sahone said confused, "Sacrilege?! You mean....."

"Yes my love for him must have cause the balance to intertwined. That's why physical body has becoming more dense than before."

Sinha reasoned, "I knew something was bound to happen. Mistress....its best if you leave this realm get back to the spirit realm."

"I'm afraid I cannot do that......"

"Why not? Lady Zecora......"

"It might be disturbing news....you see I'm pregnant..."

Sahone said shocked, "Wait.....YOUR PREGNANT?!"

"yes yes i am Sahone and pls lower your voice you might wake him."

"But but how can that be....? YOu can't age....."

"BEcoz Sahone I notice that the longer i stay here, the more I become.....a human."

"YOur becoming a human? No way......"

Sinha said sad look, "Mistress..... It cause you nothing but pain so you must leave him. This man is a burden to you if you continue like that you might....."

"SInha If I leave him, it would break his heart....."

"WHat is he to you, Lady Zecora?"

"Back then I like him the way i do of course. But even back then I felt this feeling.....an urge to protect him from all evil that is out there. It was strange but he earned a special place in my heart so maybe it was destiny that brought us together in a first place."

"Detsiny?..."

"I may have become weakened but not helpless....I created my own destiny and was able to change fate just like I was able to change yours....if you can defied destiny, then so will I even if it means being with him."

Both of them understand and recalled that time where she first found them and helped changed their fates. Sinha knelt down on her knees and said, "Lady Zecora, Master of Spirit....You helped us change our destiny of who we are. I told you before back then I will serve you till our deeds are done (from the day of the dragon)"Sahone did the same thing, "Yeah you maybe changing but we will stay with you to the end."The Spirit Master was proud that she raised them and took them in. They watch over the Spirit Master who was spending with her love day by day. She head back to the spirit realm to check all the realms were intact. She meditate there to regain her spiritual power and prayed for her children to be born.

Months later, her wish was granted she given birth two baby boys. The spinjitzu master was overjoyed to see their children, even the spirit guardians were delighted. Sahone squealed touching the cheek, "Aw.....look at them they're so cute and small."Sinha said to him, "Sahone they maybe small but one day they will become the next masters. Master Mistress....What shall you name them?"

The Spirit Master stared at the baby and thought of a name, "Hm.....this one will become strong and courageous so i think I'll name him Garmadon..." "Garmadon....that's strange name for a boy..."the spinjitzu master comment.

"Oh really? Then what about you, what will you name this one?"

"*touching the baby's head* I will name him Wu becoz he will become wise and gentle."

"Really? Wu.....Is all you ever come up with? Thats even stranger than mine."

"*chuckle* all right i admit it was....but u know i like both their names."

"so do i."as she kissed him on the forehead and stared at their sons. Sahone and SInha watched as they took care of their sons, even listen to the spirit master sung a lullaby to them to sleep . It was the happiest moments of their life that someday they might become new protectors in Ninjago. The next day, Sinha was taking care of Wu and Sahone was playing with garmadon however he kept pulling his ear which annoys him but he had to endure it. THe Spinjitzu Master and The Spirit Master were sitting at the porch smiling at them. He said, "You know those two seem to enjoy taking care of our kids except sahone....he seems trouble." She replied watching them, "yes it would seem so....you know its almost feel like yesterday the day we met in the forest."

"Oh that....that was beautiful day, the day where our love at first sight began."

"it was and now we have 2 beautiful sons........i hope they become protectors of this realm"

"I believe they might become great masters..."

"*she turned to him*Listen I want to give you something but you must promise that you will hold on to it with your life." He tilt his head wondering why she asked so he nodded in response. She reached out something from behind and pulled out a crystal as she placed it on his hand. He examine it and asked, "What is this?"

"that is the realm crystal that I brought back from the Spirit Realm the one I mentioned before."

"the crystal that opens the 16 realms but why are you giving me this to me?"

"Becoz.... maybe one day you will travel through realms. So pls hold on to it for me...."

He stared at her eyes and saw a worried look on her face. He wondered what was bothering her and why would she gave the realm crystal to him. He put in his pocket and grabbed her hand. "Zecora, your hiding something from me....Is there something you wanna tell me?"

"It's hard to explain....."

"Zecora I cared for you so much and i can't help quite notice that something bothering you. YOu can tell me after all I am your husband."

Zecora withdrawn when he comforted her and gave a sigh. "Well.....Yoshi becoz...."she was about say it until she felt something as she stood up and stared at the sky. THe Spinjitzu Master and the guardians notice it too. Then the winds started to blow. He turned his head and saw the trees blow. He looked up and saw the sky turn grey. Thunder was heard in the distance."What is it, my dear?" Spinjitzu MAster asked. "I sense a dark presence. A presence I haven't felt since..." The Spirit Master started. She used the eye of ages to see through her future vision when she was shocked as she opened the portal. She turned to them, "Sahone I want you to watch over our sons and Sinha I want you to company me."They understood Sahone took the sons into the monastery. They were about to leave when THe Spinjitzu Master insist he should go with them but the spirit master told him that he should not join them it might be dangerous however he assured that he can handle since he is the master. SHe knew she couldn't convince him so she reluctantly bring him along into the portal.

THey arrived at the village which was built on water (probably STixx) They saw the villagers were running in fear as if they were running from something. THe Spinjitzu Master looked up and saw a crack in the sky. The crack became so big and all of a sudden something came out from the crack. There were ghosts everywhere roaming around the village, terrorizing the villagers. They're also ghost dragons that was flying around. One of the ghosts try to harm the woman however Sinha manage to shoot them, causing to disappear. THe Spinjitzu Master try to fought them using the sword of fire but they were too strong, The Spirit Master advises him to use water since its their weakness. So he used water element to ward off the ghosts while the spirit master used her shimu staff to defend the people and used her spiritual power to send them back where they came. More and More are coming there is no end to it.

That's when a something appeared from the cracked which The Spirit Master gave a horror look. The green tentacles came out one by one as if its trying to get out until the portal becomes bigger. THe Spinjitzu Master said in terror, "Zecora....what is that thing?" SInha answered for him, "Do you remember when i told you about the Preehiminent? That's the thing that rules the cursed realm."

"SO that's the Preehiminent, such monstrous look but why is it here?"

"I don't know somehow the sealed had broken from the spirit realm."

The spirit master concluded, "It would seem my sacrilege not only change me but created a distortion to the realms."

"Sacrilege.....what do you mean?"

The Spirit Master and Sinha exchange looks and explained the sacrilege how it was affecting her and the realm. Realizing the mistake for falling in love with a human. THe Spinjitzu Master said looking guilty, "I had no idea it could happen.....I didn't mean..."

"No sweetheart....Its not your fault, I am glad that you cared for me. Which is why I luv you and destiny brought us together."

Sinha said while shooting, "Right now, we have to closed that gap, its the only way"Both of them nodded at each other as they head for it. The ghosts were trying to stop them however Sinha shot them. They were about reached to when a ghost dragon tackled the spinjitzu master onto the ground. He struggle to free himself but couldn't. The spirit master yelled, "Yoshi.....Get away from him."Morphing her shimu staff into a sword and defeated the ghost dragon. She helped him up as they stood back to back when the ghosts began to surround them. "I guess we have to fight our way...."she suggested.

"i agree......Do you remember Spinjitzu?"

"Of course.....I never forget that move."

"*short laugh* just like old times huh."

"Just like old times"

"NINJAGO!!" both of them do spinjitzu, defeating every each of the ghosts. Sinha somehow used airjitzu to get up on the roof and fired arrows at them so those two can passed through. They turned to the Preehiminent which is trying to break free, they began to fight the it. The spinjitzu master used water and fire to attack its tentacles while the spirit master channel her spiritual power to try to close the portal. However, the tentacles was too thick that it hit the spinjitzu master which he was able to evade it. The spirit master lost focus when she saw him. "Yoshi!!?..."out of nowhere the tentacles grabbed her as she was lifted in the air and it tried to drag her into its mouth. The spinjitzu saw what it was trying to do, he said, "Zecora....Hang on!"

He runs towards it and jumped really high as he swing his sword of fire at the tentacles. It receives a damage as it released the spirit master. Sinha tend to her then the spirit master looked up to see he was fighting off the preehiminent but it was too powerful as it smacked the spinjitzu master right off as he crashed on the house. Both of them were shocked as they run to him, they removed the pieces of boards and found him lying unconsciously. She notice he was injured from that attack so she used her powers to heal him. THey turned to see that it was about to cross over to their world and began cursing. The sky began to turn darker.

Sinha said in terror, "Oh no....the preehiminent is free, she's going to cursed the all of the realms. Its over, all hope is lost."the spirit master stared at the monster then at the spinjitzu master feeling relief when she heard his moan, she touched his cheek. She thought if the preehiminent cursed this realm then the land he loved will be engulf in darkness. She slowly stood up due to her exhaustion in healing powers. Sinha looked up at her master and asked, "Mistress, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to sealed the preehiminent back to its realm."

"HOw?....Its impossible, you powers isn't enough and you used up your strength to heal him. There's no way we can defeat that monster....."

"No not all hope is lost.....we mustn't give up. He said to me once, if there's hope....theres a miracle."

"WHat are you saying? Mistress....."

"I'm going to used my last resort, I have to focus all my spiritual power which might be able to send back."

SInha unsure what she meant as she was cut off by surrounded in some kind of barrier around her and the spinjitzu master, leaving the spirit master outside. She turned to SInha, "I'm going to send her back to her realm....."

"WHat? Mistress no you can't?! if you do that, you'll be dragged into the cursed realm and you won't be able to get back. You might used up your energy, you'll be trapped."

"I know but pls understand if i don't do this.....then this realm he once protected will be cursed. I swear to watch over the harmony of all realms, it is my destiny."

SInha said with sadness, "NO pls you mustn't, we swear ourselves to protect you. I can't let you throw your life away. Without you, there's no purpose for us......" THe spirit master looked over her shoulder and said, "That's not true....you see I chose you two so that you would have a second chance to redeem yourselves and discover your potential. I may not be here to break your curse but know this no matter where I am wherever I go I'll always be with you in spirit."

"Zecora....."

"You called me by my name, I'm glad.......Sinha, will you heed my last request?"

"YEs....what is it?"

"I want you to.....watch over him and his sons. Take care of my sons till they grow to be protectors...."

"I promise I will watch over them, but i can't bear to lose you...."Sinha said, holding her tears.

"THank you Sinha......*staring at the spinjitzu master* thank you yoshi for showing me everything, this realm is the most beautiful place. YOu taught me somthing that inspire me; you show me hope that can turn darkness into light. Farewell, my love" as she head towards the monster.

Sinha cried, reaching her hand out, "Zecora!!! NO!!!!"

Her body began to glow along with her shimu staff. Her light shine so brightly that preehiminent couldn't stand it. She float in the air as her eyes began to glow. She summoned all her elements as it surrounded the preehiminent into somkind of orb. She morphed her staff into a shield as she chanted.

Cross of silver, day and night.

By the eye of ender,

Turn the darkness into light

I offer my life to Send this creature back to which it came

Ensure all realms to be balance once more

She directly pushed the preehiminent back into the cracked closing the portal behind her and created a huge blast of light which blinded the entire village. As it came down, the ghosts and the preehiminent were gone so was the cracked. SInha looked around to find the spirit master but was nowhere to be seen. She notice something fell from the sky revealing a shimu staff what was left. She walked towards it and held it into her chest, she mourned for mistress that she couldn't do anything where tears touched the staff.

Back in the monastary, the spinjitzu master awoke from his slumber as he pushed himself out from the bed. Sahone woke up when he saw he was awake, "woah easy there, your ok you've been out for a day and don't worry about your sons cuz they're asleep in the other room". The spinjitzu master asked worriedly, "WHat happened? WHere's the preehiminent?" SInha appeared before she opened the slide door, "the preehiminent is gone and Ninjago is safe from its cursed."

He sighed in relief then he realized something, "Wait....where's Zecora?"Both of them exchange sad looks. He saw their expression as SInha answered, "Zecora....She's gone she gave her life in order to protect your realm. This is all what is left; her shimu staff."She handed to him and he took it from her. He stared at it and felt grieved by sacrificed herself. He couldn't believed that she did that, his tears came out from his eyes. "Zecora......She did it for me? It's my fault that I wasn't there for her."He regret.

"No master Yoshi....It is not your fault she did what she had to do. Its very difficult for us to understand her choice."

Sahone swallowed, "Now that she's gone, there's no one to watch over the realms. The harmony might collapse or distorted."The spinjitzu master knew he was right, without the spirit master the spirits cannot rest and realms might be. He was about to feel distraught when he remembered something as he reached out the realm crystal. Both of them were shocked when they saw it. Sahone said, "that's....the realm crystal where did you get that?"

"SHe gave it to me....I don't know why she gave it to me."

SInha paused a moment, "I do.....I believe she entrusted you for safekeeping."

" why would she entrust it to me?"

"Becoz.... she wants you to watch over the harmony of the realms for her and maybe.....someday......one day....she might return to us. From this day forward, *knelt on the knee* Master Yoshi, I lay my bow and my power to you that my promise to her is to be by your side to help your sons to become true masters."

"Sinha......"

Sahone did the same thing as well, "Me too, Zecora gave you that crystal so that the balance will be maintained. Pls accept her wishes and let us serve you till the end. We don't know whether she return, we hope to take care of your sons until they became masters."

He stared at the crystal then at them and swear himself, "Don't worry Zecora I promise to keep the realms peace and i will take good care of your companions. Watch over us becoz i believe your spirit is with us."He accept them as they stared at sky where they felt wind breezing around them meaning...the spirit master soul still lives.

End of Flashbacks

After the scene was ended, I couldn't help but felt heartbroken that I had no idea that Zecora would sacrificed herself in order to saved the one she loved. "That's her in my dream, I can't believe it........So that's why she gave the crystal to him....becoz she knew something might happened to her. Now i know how Rava and Vatu feels when they lost the one they cherished just like Lloyd"I said, with tears.

The previous master writer nodded at me and said, "Her sacrificed was hard to understand but she did what needs to be done in order to restore the balance. Her companions kept watching over the spinjitzu master until his sons will become the next generation."

"So they took care of them, but what about the shimu staff? Why did my uncle have it?"

"Y'see the spinjitzu master met a traveler who was wandering in the forest of tranquility. He saw how he defended himself, so he entrusted the shimu staff to becoz he was worthy to wield it. That traveler is his ancestor.....he was the one who founded Iona Village"

"That explains why he has it.....my uncle tried but didn't work? I believe she would've wanted for someone to used it for her."

"Indeed......EVer since she's been visiting the spirit realm, she also visited me."

"Wait....Zecora did? Why?"

"Becoz she knew outcome what would happen due to her sacrilege, we lost control the outside. I may not know her destiny but I told her what would happen in the future. That's why I chose Sahone and SInha to be with her so they both understand their potential. She maybe gone but they had hoped that one day she might return...."

"Well I'm afraid they weren't able to see her becoz they fall into deep slumber and years later they served me now."

"OH that's not true y'see she did return.....in another form."

"What? O_O"

"It was right after Zecora was dragged into the Cursed Realm...."

He pointed something behind me, I turned when the background began to change. It showed me Zecora sealing the preehiminent then being dragged into the cursed realm. She stood there as she began to feel weak that she used up her powers. She felt a demonic aura surrounding her. She looked at her hand when she realized that she is fading, somehow the preehiminent is trying to absorb her spiritual essence. She quickly created a barrier as she tried to hold on but it was getting weaker and her arm was about to give. She didn't have her shimu staff and she couldn't open another portal. She knew it was the end of her, the barrier began to cracked realizing it was time. 'It would seem I had no choice.....'

I watched as she did something to her body as the lightorb came out of her chest, then what it was; her psyche. (It looked similar to the kingdom heart where xehanort's heart left his vessel) She slowly stared at it and said, "I knew this day would come.....I may not be there to watch over the spirit realm. But i believe I would entrust my answer and my fate of the world hoping to bring harmony. Now go abandon my vessel and be reborn as the new spirit master."As she watched the lightorb quickly shot right through the sky and disappeared. "I'm glad I get to spend time with you Yoshi.....to the end." she said her last words. The barrier disappeared and finally she was engulfed into the darkness by the preehiminent.

The previous master writer stated, "NOt all story ends with a sad moment but a new begining."I tilted my head wondering what he meant then I remembered her psyche I turned back to watch what happened to it. I saw it appeared in ninjago somehow she must have teleported it but why. It was floating endlessly through the cities, the glaciers, the dessert, the ocean and the mountains almost like its looking for a place to be. 'i wondered where it was going.' I thought to myself until it reached its destination. It head to the forest as it sinked into the lake, the lake glowed brightly and the mist began to reappear. I looked around and couldn't believed what i just saw; they're spirits everywhere in the forest. I observed the surrounding till I recognized that place.

"Wait.....this is..."

"That's right....this is the misty forest that was made by it. And his ancestor found this place as he named it Iona Village becoz he believed the spirits would protect them. After years gone by, her psyche waited and waited till....."

I looked back and saw a person who was chased by wolves as he defend himself. I recognized him, that was my uncle before when he was young. It was end him of him when the lake began to glow before the previous master added which led me into a shocked, ".....your story began."The light glowed so brightly as the orb appeared in front of him which scared the wolves. He stared at the orb as it changed into a different form; a baby girl. My eye's widened knowing who that baby is. "that's me?!....."I said, looking shocked. My uncle picked the younger me into his arm and touched it, he smiled and said, "I think I'll name you Jinmay....I don't know what future store in you or what it meant.....I promise I'll take care of you."as scene disappeared

The previous master replied, "Yes that's where you've been born as the new spirit master."

"So i'm Zecora's psyche and so that's how it all began, I can't believe that I'm her."

"Yes she made you...so that a new spirit master would appear and bring hope to this realms which also included about the prophecy of the spinjitzu master and the spirit master becoz she forsaw what happened and told me about it."

"I don't know what to say...."

"I know it was a shocking to you that your origin, the previous spirit master fought side by side with the spinjitzu master in the past but now the rest of the world is in your hands. You must save Lloyd from Morro and prevent the preehiminent from cursing the realms."

I looked down and couldn't believed I had the fate of Ninjago shoulder in my hand. Not only I was shocked about my origin but I have to protect him just like how Zecora protected him. I began doubting myself I am worthy to be a spirit master becoz I thought about Zecora's sacrilege that cause the balance to distortion. Will it happen to me? Last time, I saved Zane from his fate but instead Garmadon took his place which cause the interference with fates. Will i might make the same mistake like Zecora when I'm with Lloyd? I couldn't help but felt attached to him, I am in love with him but I didn't tell him. I wondered Would it affect the future if something happens? I don't know anymore as I turned to the monk and said, "Tell me.....Would i end up with Lloyd? Can i defied or change destiny? " The monk gave unsure smile and said, "It is your decision to decide....this is your story and your the one who is creating it."

"I don't if I can.....what if?"

"Follow your heart and you will find it.....I think we've talk too long. Its time you go back and fulfill your role."as the world around me began to cloud around me I looked at the previous master writer who was farther from me. I wanted to ask more question until everything went foggy.

I slowly opened my eyes and saw shiro was staring down at me. I realized I was back in the cloud kingdom. I slowly get up and sat straight, asking what happened. He explained"Well, I was lighting up these incense and you just fainted on the floor. You've been out for 25 minutes so I couldn't wake you becoz I knew that the eye is showing you. You were mumbling to yourself. Care to tell me?"I told him everything I saw and my origin, including the previous master writer. Shiro gave a sad look and said, "your lucky you get to see him, I missed him so much."

"All this......just to discover who I am?"

"you found your own story and yet you still seek answers......Lady Zecora was wiser than ever. Your journey wans't mean to be here *he pointed my chest* but in here. Now you understand your destiny is clear."

I stared at him and understand my destiny for what I was made to do. I was about to say something when I heard Rava's voice. 'Mistress, We have a problem....Morro and his ghost are here.'

I replied to her, 'what?! How did that happen?'

'The ninjas arrived in Cloud kingdom and Fenwick tricked them into going to see the Master Writer. Now, Morro is here.....he's going after the sword, I need you there.'

'Ok I'll be there.'as I turned and asked, "Tell me....Do you know where the sword is locate?"Shiro answered, "Of course I know where it is but why? Did something happen?"I explained everything to him and he was shocked of what Fenwick did. I was about to head out and gave me a direction but instead he said, "Let me take you there...."

"What but your not allowed to meddle with our mission."

"I may not be allowed to mingled with it, but I bend with it. I will help you becoz I couldn't forgive what Fenwick did and to SInha. This time, I'm going to repay my debt to her."

I looked at him and smiled, "Very well, Lead the way."As we quickly left the monastary and head to our destination. I'm determine to protect Ninjago and save Lloyd, even if it means defying destiny.

(Now that you know Rava's and JInmay's origin, Will they ever face their hardest obstacle? FInd out next update in Ch 5.2 )
