CURSED WORLD
HUnter POV
We were almost at Stixx, I turned to them and asked, "OK guys your ready?"THe ninjas who were in disguise. Jinmay and her companions arrived at the scene.. Vatu said, "hey nice disguise."
" Thx we decided to put on some disguises so we could blend in. That way we won't be as suspicious as if we weren't wearing anything."
"And what may this disguise be, Cole?" I asked him.
"Uh, hats, why?"
I face palmed, and I could see Vatu and Jinmay do the same thing . I couldn't believe that they actually thought that would work! Who was I kidding, it was their idea, the same guys that actually thought that pranking Sensei a little while back was a good idea.. I still have no idea what happened to them.
Jinmay turned to Lloyd who was dressed differently. "You look good on that clothes Lloyd"she complimented. Lloyd said with a pink blush, "Um....thx even you look good without your mask to hide it since your the purple ninja"
"For the last time its.....*sigh* what's the point? Purple ninja it is.....even though I'm a shinobi."
Everyone has smile on their face, even Vatu and Rava. Jinmay notice and turned to Nya, "I hope ur plan works becoz I don't like idea where Wu and Misako getting capture."
Nya assured, "don't worry they'll be fine I promise."
" I hope so...."
I said determine, "Chill Jinmay remember not every path is a straight line. Got it memorized?"
We smiled at each other as we were ready to face Morro and his ghosts. I said, "Ok guys get in your position."The ninjas were about to leave when Rava stopped Cole. "Take care of yourself Cole."She said worry. Cole reply, "I will....you too good luck"as they left. Vatu jaw dropped as if she called his name. Vatu asked Rava, "Dude, since when did you start calling his name. You were so formal before but now different."
Rava said, "Well Cole told me I should call everyone's name for once so I did. Its what friends do. Isn't that right Jinmay?"
Jinmay said with strange look, "Y'know it strange that you called me by my name but that depends on your choice. Friends always friends, I guess you did learn a lot about friendship."
"Indeed I did..."
Vatu asked, "Hey your not going to wear your kabuki mask."
JInmay said, "SInce Lloyd knows who I am, there's no reason for me to hide my identity anymore."
"Aw....you look cool with your mask on."
"Don't worry I'm still keeping the mask the one you gave me. C'mon guys lets show Morro how we worked together."
I turned to my wheel to see Stixx coming ahead, JInmay and her companions head to where the ninjas while I need to find a place to hide my WingBlazer. Ok Morro Its showtime.
RAVA POV
Nya actually put together the plan for the water elementals to get to the city before everyone else so they could get ready for battle easier. She took Lloyd's Ninja Gi and planned on distracting Morro so Lloyd could get to the Crystal without worrying about him. To up his chance of getting there, so he wouldn't get possessed, Hunter gave him a Deepstone armor. Back to Nya and JInmay, they were the ones with the best tools to take out the ghosts (their water powers) so they would take out some of ghosts, whichever ones they could without being detected by anyone. I on the other hand, was helping out get rid of some of them as well. While Vatu started down the left side of the City and Jinmay on the right, I had to stay with Nya.
Once we found the location of where Morro was keeping the Crystal, we'd slit up and do our own business. "Take care Jinmay...."I said. Jinmay reply, "You too Rava."I watch JInmay go another path while Vatu in his wolf form so no one would notice.
We were silent for a minute or so, until she spoke up "hey, can I ask you something?" I turned to her "yeah, anything." "How do you do it so well?" I raised an eyebrow in curiosity. "I mean, how do you use your powers so well with out any problem?" I signed. I wasn't sure now to explain it, there wasn't much to using your powers. "You just do it, there's nothing really specific with it. Think about your element and it'll just happen. Water tends to 'go with the flow' so do that."
"That's what I've been doing. Even though I can use my powers, that doesn't mean I'm efficient with them."
I shook my head in disappointment "It doesn't matter, You can use them and as long as you can attack with it, it's fine. After this you can train more to increase your experience with them. I don't wanna hear you put yourself down, that's not the Nya that I know. You understand?"
"Yeah, I guess you're right," she managed a smile as she nodded to answer. We kept walking and eventually made it to the middle of [below] the city. We started to climb the pole that was helping to keep the structure from collapsing into the ocean below it. When we got to the top, and onto the docks, we ran into an alleyway to talk things through. We looked around the corner and observed some ghost bickering between one another. She turned to me "Are you ready?" I nodded at her as I cast an illusion to make me look like JInmay. "alright, let's go."
We sneak past the ghosts so they won't spot us. First, we saw ghosts eating their food when Kai accidentantly spilled on one of them which cause them to chase after him. Second, we saw three ghosts then Jay came hanging on the crate as it placed on the ground which divert their eyes on him. Third, we almost run into two ghosts who were coming toward us until Zane dropped the bucket of water right in front of them as we sneak past them. Fourth, we were about to passed through when we saw two ghosts heard something as they were about to come towards to where we are when Vatu (in wolf form) came as he barked at them. The two ghosts thought to believe it was just a dog as they left that give us a chance to move. Finally, we stumble some ghosts who were dancing by the music when Cole possesed it which made the tempo go faster. We were able to escape past them when we heard a roar.
"It would see we have been spotted."I said. We kept running until we run into Soul archer who spotted us. "LOok what we have here"
"the green ninja and his little purple friend"
We turned to see Morro and his ghosts surrounding us. "so rude, Hasn't anyone told you it's not polite to be late to the party?"The ghosts seized us as we knelt on the ground. The ghosts laugh as Bansa asked, "Now that we've got him, what to with us to do with them?"
Morro said, "Surely it's not just you, I know your ninja are never far"He called, "Come out, Come out, wherever you are! I have your beloved green ninja and your purple ninja."It would have been ashamed that the ninjas didn't showed up becoz we both know the plan to distract him from the crystal. He turned to us, "You think you come into my home, And steal the crystal I rightfully earned? You think I'll just hand it to you, just like that green gi was handed to you. Tell me, tell all of us *grabbing Nya on the Gi* that I'm better than you and I'll let you go."The ghosts were laughing as though he was taunting us. "What's the matter? Cat got your tonge"Morro taunt, removing the mask revealing Nya. Morro and his ghosts were shocked that wasn't Lloyd.
"Sorry I c ouldn't hear you. I'm still a little wet behind the ears."Nya said, forming water from her hand. Morro said, "She's the water Ninja She's.....protect the realm Crystal." Without time to react, all of the ghosts are dissolved by Nya's water powers, except Morro. Nya formed a big water as she launched at him however Morro manage to use wind which cause the water to drop. Morro flew as he blasted wind at Nya until I blocked him using my wind and summoned my celestial bow that shoot energy arrow. I said mockingly, "You let your guard down only be fooled by our disguise."Morro said, "So Rava I see your here well then it would be nice to see your face again. We have a score to settle, don't we?"
Nya and I got into our fighting stance and I answered, "Yes yes I do."As we lunged at him and have battle.
Jinmay POV
We landed near the entrance to the city, both Vatu and I finally got a good look at what happened to it. The lanterns that illuminated Stiix now emitted a ghastly green glow. I could see spirits flying around the city, terrifying the citizens. The sky was dark, giving the city a creepy look and making the water appear black. I saw a discarded dragon costume lying nearby. I sighed at the sight of it. It must be February 9th, Ninjago's New Year's Day. Yesterday was the Chinese New Year. I was supposed to spend that time with my uncle, and my friends, but of course Morro had to ruin it all. It's the first year I've missed the New Year's celebration. I wonder if my uncle thought of me during it, It was special day for me.
Just then, the others arrived. Nya jogged up in Lloyd's gi, waving."Glad to see you guys made it here in one piece," she said, the mask over her face making me wonder if she was smiling or not. I nodded."Yeah, we had no difficulty," I said in response."Well, that's good! Hopefully that good luck stays with us for the fight," Nya hoped. She then glanced at the entrance to Stiix. "Looks like it's time to go in, huh?"
"Yeah, let's go," Vatu said. We let Nya run ahead, then we followed her.
Both Nya and I stopped in the center of Stiix as Nya continued to run after Morro. Kai and Lloyd would stick with her from there. We just needed to fend off any incoming ghosts so we split up. I roamed around a abit wondering where the crystal. I run around the corner when I encountered Vatu s he morphed into his samurai form. He was glad to see me and said ,"Any idea where the crystal might be?"
Hunter said on the earpeice which she gave us"I think I've found the crystal. It appears to be inside what used to be Ronin's shop in the center of town. Morro's there and it's highly guarded," I looked in the direction of where the shop was, and saw some dragons flying over it.
Geez, those things were a real pain. Dragons were normally cool, but not in this situation."Do you really think we can get Lloyd in there to destroy it?" She questioned no one in particular. "I don't know if we'll be able to pull Morro away long enough."
"We can do it, C'mon Vatu. HUnter I'll meet you there" I said, some words of support."Right!" they said in unison. It was the guy's and our job to distract the ghosts to make a path for Nya, from where ever she was at the moment, so that she could make it close to the crystal and distract Morro. That way Lloyd would have less of the problem of getting to the Realm Crystal and destroy it. As for us, we were supposed to poof as many ghosts as we could. That way we could get rid of some which would leave less for us to fight when the big battle started.
I took out my shimu staff, to use as needed, and ran for the center of the City to where the Realm Crystal was, Ronins old shop in this case, and be there for any needed back up. Compared to the others, we could jump right in and help without delay. "HUnter, you almost to the shop?" I asked her. It'd be easy to meet up with her so we could know where one another were, since we were put on the same team for this fight. The Support Team. Support for Nya and possibly Lloyd if he needed it."Yeah," she responded.
"You know, there's not that many ghosts here. This is going to be an easy job," Vatu observed. I nodded in response. Looks like the good luck lasted! Though, just as I nodded, a whole pack of ghosts entered the area, our good luck diminishing."you had to jinxed it!" I shouted, blasting spiritual energy at a nearby ghost."Don't blame me! Blame the ghosts! They're the ones who chose to show up!" He argued, swinging his katana furiously. The number of ghosts grew as we tried to exterminate them all. My arms were growing tired, and I didn't know how much longer I could keep up with this."Try to use your powers!" VAtu instructed me as we began to get surrounded.
"I can't make any promises that it will work!"
A few moments passed before suddenly I heard the ghost explode, and the goo landed on my arms."Did I-?" before I could finish, several more ghosts exploded, covering us and the surrounding area in the neon green goo. I looked up to see streams of plasma landing on the ghosts, causing them to explode. There's no way I could be making it all come from that direction! I followed the direction of the streams to spot Hunter. She saw me too and waved "hey!" she turned off her radio and ran to me. "alright, let's go," I nodded and we dashed for the shop in the center of the city. Vatu asked while running, "What did you do to the ghost?"HUnter smirked showing her arm gauntlet, "Ecto-plasma used for ghost busting. Who would thought it was useful?"Good old HUnter and that's why she's my childhood friend.
We stopped when we saw Nya and Rava fighting some of the ghosts, and actually made them all disappear. Nya was about to get Morro with a large sphere of water, but he canceled out her attack with wind. I never actually thought that was possible, but apparently it was. We wanted to jump in and help, since Nya was having a slight problem with fighting him, but a group of ghosts surrounded us. We ended up back to back, and smirked at each other. With weapons in hands, we nodded at each other. I ran forward and swung my Kusarigama around to hit some of them with it, successfully taking them all down. On Vatu's end, he took out the rest of the ghosts with his katana while HUnter blasting them.
I looked over to see how Nya was doing, and she wasn't doing any hotter than she was the last time I looked in her direction. Morro blew a gust of wind at her which caused her to go flying into the side of a building, and was eventually helped out by Zane who froze the ghost dragons that were pulling close to attack her. They exchanged nods and he was on his way to fight somewhere else. Nya kept on fighting ghosts though until she was knocked over again by Morro in his Wind. "Ist that all? Is that all you've got?"Morro said. Rava used wind to knock Morro as well but he saw it as he fight with her
"Scrap," I said under my breath. I exchanged looks with Vatu and Hunter "Hunter we're going to help her. You continue to hold off the ghosts, you can do it," he gave me a nod of approval and we ran over to where Nya and Rava was. I sung my weapon at a couple of ghosts that were surrounding Nya, who was backed up against another wall. The ghosts were behind me but Hunter took care of it. She looked up at us "thanks,"Hunter held out a hand to help her up and she took the offer. I turned to see Rava however things don't go too well. He blocked her attack as he grabbed Rava on the clothes and pinned her on the ground, raising his sword.
Morro said to her, "Y'know you reall starting to get on my nerve. I wonder what happens when I placed this sword on your bead?"Rava knew what he meant as she struggle to break free. I knew what was going to happen that if he aims his sword at her bead she will disappear forever as I run towards them. At the corner of my eye, I saw Lloyd running out and jumping onto the roof that Morro was on as he kicked him, leaving Rava alone. I jumped on the roof alongside with Lloyd and Rava. I asked, "ARe you alright?"Rava replied tiring, "YEs I'm ok Jinmay."
Lloyd turned to me, "Jinmay stay with Rava , this is between him and me"We watched as Morro got up. He pulled out the Sword of Sanctuary with a smirk, ""Let's see how good you are!" they were fighting but Morro had the upper hand with the Sword. Rava dragged me off the roof to a safe point. I watched in shock as the building and the things around it start to float.
I really wanted step in and help Lloyd but Rava was keeping me back by grabbing onto my sleeve."let go!" I tried, but she wouldn't let go. "he needs help,!" I knew that he was supposed to destroy the Crystal, but he clearly needed help to get around Morro, so why wasn't she letting me help! I finally pulled away and ran closer to the building.
Hunter exclaimed, " RONIN!!"
Out of my surprise, Ronin showed up and dropped something down onto the building from his ship. It was... Coins?I looked around but lost sight of Lloyd and Morro. "where did they go?" they had to be in the building, where else could they have gone? I jumped over the floating boards, and saw Lloyd talking to Morro. With all the ruckus, I could barely make any of the conversation out. From what I could though, they were talking about something about his father. "Lloyd, don't give in!" I yelled to him but it was no use.Tentacle like things were coming out of the portal above the two. It had to be the Preeminent. It had to be.
The others [Kai, Nya, and Zane] and Vatu were all banging on the side of the building and screaming out for Lloyd. At this rate, he'll be dragged into the cursed Realm. I was about to go after him when I felt someone clutching onto my arm. I turned to see Rava who manage to come here. "JInmay No if you go in there, you'll....."Rava said worriedly. I glanced to where Lloyd is then at Rava as I gave a assuring smile, "Its ok I'll be alright beside I can't leave him."I manage to let go of her as run towards the to where the portal is and jumped in after him, I heard Rava yelled at my name and we were gone.
Vatu POV
"So, you're telling me Lloyd and Jinmay got pulled into a portal by an octopus?" Hunter asked, raising an eyebrow. Zane nodded."Affirmative. Though, I do not believe the tentacles belonged to an octopus," he confirmed. It was then that the tentacles that were described earlier started to emerge from nearby Ronin's shop. The hairy eyeball-like creature I remember seeing during our time in the past where Rava showed me where it began to enter our world through a portal. It began to use the various buildings in Stiix as it's armor, covering everywhere except for the part of it's body that looked like an eyeball. It's tentacles were outstretched, trying to pull off a menacing look, and did so effectively.
"Woah what is that thing!?" Kai said, shocked by the monster's appearance. Rava said, with cold glare at it, ""It's The Preeminent!" "the physical manifestation of the entire cursed realm" Zane informed us. Hunter said, "Ok that looks disturbing, now i know what she looks like."Cole observed, "I know one thin---she ain't pretty."
Jay made a disgusted sound, "ew gross, im about to lose my lunch"
I could agree. A hairy, tentacle-armed eyeball isn't beautiful at all. Trust me. I saw Nya run towards the Preeminent, unleashing a jet of water in attempt to see if it hurt the huge monster. Nya's attack didn't affect the Preeminent at all, instead it just made the huge eyeball exasperated. The monster swung it's tentacles in an attempt to catch the water ninja, but Nya cartwheeled out of the way, backing up to where we all stood. It swung it's tentacle again, attempting to hit us all this time, but we all jumped out of it's way. They try using elemental powers on that thing but no effect.
Zane said, "she didn't notice that."Rava told them, "that's becoz that thing is powerful, not even your elements can't affect her."Hunter complained, " Ugh great I hate unbeatable creature."
Rava attempted to blind the beast by using energy arrow, but it failed. "Try cutting off the tentacles instead!" Jay suggested to us all as he pulled out his Aeroblade. I stepped up, pulling my katanas out of my sheath."Alright let's see how sharp you actually made this thing!" I smirked before running ahead of Jay, towards the tentacles. Jay and I slashed through the tentacles with ease, only to find that the tentacles grow back, twice as many in fact."That wasn't supposed to happen!" I exclaimed, backing away from The Preeminent with Jay.
Suddenly, The Preeminent's tentacles grabbed a hold of Jay's new vehicle, smashing it to bits on a dock. Jay screamed at the sight of the car being smashed, as if the Preeminent was murdering someone instead of his car. "M-My baby!" the blue ninja mourned, looking as if he were about to sob. I heard Nya mutter something under her breath at the sight of all this. Something about Jay and "baby" was all I could hear. "Nya, it'd be great if you'd unlock your True Potential now!" Kai said slightly impatiently. Nya turned and glared at her brother."Oh yeah! Let me just flip a switch! Oh wait! That's right! I'm not a god damn nindroid!" she shouted sarcastically, crossing her arms."But I-" Zane started to protest, but Jay shushed the android, not wanting to aggravate Nya further. At the same time all of this was happening, Cole was attempting to take down the Preeminent by driving his Deepstone bike into her mouth, which failed badly. The ghost ninja rolled onto the ground, sighing. "Well, there goes a perfectly good bike."
What did you think was going to happen when you drove it into her mouth, doofus!? Of course she'll eat it and most likely eat you! All of us continued to try and fight the Preeminent and her ghost minions. HUnter even pitched in, attempting to take down the monster by shooting it with her ecto plasma. Though our tactics were proving unaffective, we continued to try and fight it, despite fatigue from fighting the tentacled beast starting to take over some of us. "I don't think we're going to defeat this thing anytime soon!" Hunter exclaimed, bringing up a point I refused to admit.
JInmay POV
I slowly opened my eyes and got up steadily. I looked around, wondering where I am then I remembered that Lloyd was pulled into the Cursed Realm. I said disbelief, "I can't believe I'm in the cursed realm. It looks exactly like the one in my vision. I felt someone beside me as i turned to see Lloyd laying on the ground. I shake him, trying to wake him up. Lloyd opened his eyes and said, "JInmay, what happen? What are you doing here?"
I said, "Now is not the time to talk, we should get out of here."
I helped him got up as we flees almost immediately when he sees a group of ghosts. I shushed him not trying to make a noise. We were about to find a way out when I notice another cavern and it was strangely farmiliar then I recalled from my vision. I pulled his sleeve and said, "Lloyd this way."
"Huh? you know where the way out is?"
"Nope but I saw something in my vision and I recognized this cavern."
We run through the tunnels and I was right, it does look exactly in my vision where we passed Chen and Clouse cage. As we reached there, Lloyd saw something ahead and knew who it was. Yeah I led him to his father where he's bound in chains on either arm.
Lloyd exclaimed, " huh dad!" Garmadon looked up and saw us as he said, "Lloyd?"I watched Lloyd embraces him that he was delighted to see him, even me. Garmadon said, "my son......JInmay your here too?"
"Yeah this time it's real deal."
Lloyd said, trying to break the chains, "I'll get you out of here, dad"Garmadon informed, "Its no use, these chains will not break." I waked over to the chains and used my spiritual powers which has no effect. "Not even my powers can't purify it, Sorry"I said. Lloyd asked, "Where are we?"I was about to say something but Garmadon cut in, "The cursed realm is the preeminent, and the preehiment is the cursed realm. Son your in the belly of the beast." I swallowed, "Wait.....we're inside the preehiminent. Ok that's just so wrong."Then again I had no idea the preehiminent is the cursed realm itself. Garmadon said confuse, " But if you're in here..."
Lloyd said, giving the bad news, "Morro is the green ninja and hes stolen the realm crytal. I tried, father."
"You must not give up. If he has the crystal, all is in danger."
"But how? I'm not the green ninja anymore, I failed miserably."
I turned to him who has a sad expression. I took a deep breathe and said, "That's not true..."which caught Lloyd and Garmadon's attention as I continued, "Look sure Morro maybe but he's not. It wasn't the color of the gi that made you who you are, It was the color of your heart. Just like how I discover it wasn't the shimu staff that made me who I am. Your still the green ninja and always will be."
Garmadon nodded and said, "She's right so Don't give up."Lloyd said with confident, "I won't father."
"You must leave here and destroy the preehiminent. Save Ninjago, save the realms."
I said, "Wait...If the cursed realm is destroyed, wouldn't it could destroy you along with it."Lloyd realized what was going to happen, I can't bear to see him disappeared in front of us after all that time. Lloyd said, "No I don't want to see you disappear..."Garmadon said ominously, "whatever happened to me, wherever i am, I will always be with you. There comes a time when every boy must become a man. What sort of man is up to him."I felt sorry for Lloyd that he has to sacrificed anything to save Ninjago, just like how Zecora did. I was about to tell him when all of a sudden a purple butterfly appeared on Garmadon's head. It was just like the one in my vision but what's it doing here. I notice Lloyd and Garmadon saw it too. Lloyd asked, "JInmay are you see this?" I nodded and turned to Garmadon. He said, "Actually it was been here right after I was bound to these chains. Its been glowing and roaming here in tunnel ever since."
It flown in front of us as i touched it then it began to glow and formed into a figure. I could see color beginning to appear on the silhouette. It turned to acknowledge me, revealing blue curly long hair, silver and purple elegant kimono which has butterfly in it. I gasped and realizing who this silhouette was. It had nearly exact same face as me. She walk towards to Garmadon as she hugged him. Lloyd don't recognize her when She spoke, "It's been awhile my son.....you've grown so much
"Mother....."Garmadon said, tears came out of his eyes. As she wiped the tears from him.
Lloyd and I blinked when he said that. Lloyd asked, "Is that....?!" I said, "Yeah, Its Zecora, the first spirit master."Garmadon said, "I can't believe its you.....I saw a picture of you in the drawer and I knew. My father never mentioned to us."
Zecora who was in spiritual form, "Even if he did, it would have broke you and your brother's heart if you found out. I sacfriced myself in order to save Ninjago so the realms won't collapse." her voice was soft, igniting memories of previous years within his mind, bringing a smile to his face. She turned to see Lloyd, "I see I have a grandson....just as I thought, you do have your father's figure." Lloyd blushed with shyness when she compliment him. Finally, she turned to me and walk towards me, she placed her hand on my cheek. Unlike my dreams, I could actually feel her somehow. I could actually feel the fabric of her kimono and she didn't seem twisted like my dreams portrayed her. Is she actually here, alive?
I asked, "Are you----?"
"No, my vessel was already gone a long time ago."
Lloyd said confuse, "Then how were you....?"
"Its true I depart from this world, what you didn't know is that. Right after, I sealed the preehiminent into her realm. She absorbed my essence before my body disappear. She absorb me so that she can be powerful and impossible to defeat."
So that's why my spritual power couldn't break the chains. It made it stronger right after Zecora's sacrifice. "I knew something might happen so I waited till....a new spirit master was born. And Jinmay I've been waiting for you." She said.
I blinked at her, "Wait....you were waiting for me? But how?"She lifted her hand, pointing at my eye. I knew what she meant; the Eye of Ages. "Ever since you've been seeing through visions, I was able to communicate you through visions. I saw everything what you did and I was proud that a part of me did."
Lloyd said, "So that's why you know.....you saw what happened in the future."
"Yes now that my psyche has been sprouted, it is time for me to depart."
I asked, "What do you mean?"
"Y'see now that your here, I'm going to transfer all my essence to you. So that you can wield some of my powers. All my wisdoms and my knowledge will become a part of you."
I staggered back and stared at Lloyd and Garmadon then at me. I shaked my head, "No I can't....I'm afraid I can't do it."Lloyd said, "What's wrong Jinmay?"
"Becoz you saw what happen, the trouble I bring. No matter how hard I protect, it make things worse. I couldn't even save a person who was dear to me. You should be the spirit master, not me. I'm not worthy to be one."
Zecora said, "Even if I want to, but I'm no long here. I'm in my spiritual form and I'm afraid I cannot take your place."
"But, I've failed you. I am no spiritual master, and I've let the world down. I'll never be the master you were."I knelt on my knees and cried.
"You are right. You are trying to hold on to a false perception of yourself. You are not me, and you should not be me. You are Jinmay Ender."
"What?"
"Y'see after my psyche left me, I made you so that you will learn and evolve as i have becoz of that I was unable to return back. But you..... you did it by yourself. you met many people and friends who cared for you, it is all what makes you who are. All your memories, all those challenges and all the good things you spend through, they're a part of you and nothing is going to take them away from you."
"I...."
"what's truly important is not the past, but stepping into the future. Remember who you are and your destiny"
Lloyd said, giving some word of support, "That's right, Jinmay. We made mistake sometime, even me. I gone through worst day as much as you do but you helped realize who I am."Garmadon said, "It doesn't matter what everyone thinks, what matter is who you are. Your still you and always will be."
I felt the emotion surging through me almost like a feeling of confident and determination. I stood up and said firmly, "Your right, I am not you....I am JInmay Ender, Master of Spirit and my duty is to protect everyone I cherished." Zecora smiled proudly, "Yes Jinmay that is who you are and all i asked is that it is time. Once you did, You will teach people to respect the spirits and nature so that balance will be maintained. You will be the bridge between two worlds, Are you ready?"
I nodded as I stepped closer to her, Zecora turned to Garmadon and said proudly, "I'm proud that you raised your son well...."
Garmadon smiled proudly as well, "Yes I already did...."She turned to Lloyd, "Lloyd keep protecting this realm and bring peace."Lloyd said, "I will...." Zecora waved her hand in a circular motion which cause Garmadon's and Lloyd's clothes to be switched. Lloyd was now wearing his father's robe. Lloyd turned to his father which he nodded to him that he wanted to have his robe as part of his wisdom as well. Zecora turned to me as she placed her hand into my hand, touching each other. "I am glad I get to meet you to the end, I'll always be part of you."
As my body began to glow, The purple light began to creep up on my arm, with this strangely familiar feeling. I hesitated, before shutting my eyes and letting it swarm over over me. She disappeared in front of me but Zecora's light is still in me.
"WE ARE ONE" We both said in unison. As I float in air and my body shine brightly, so bright that it light up the tunnels.
A moment later, it faded, both the feeling and the purple light. I looked at myself notice that I was no longer in my purple shinobi suit. It what appeared to be a silvery purple kimono robe which has instead of butterfly it was replaced with dragon, Beneath that I wore a violet stockings, and sleeves seemed to glow slightly, with an internal, violet-and-silver light. It had a sort of V-neck, and beneath that there was a black shirt. My shoes were black, leather boots, and I still had my silver scarf.
I was amazed that not only I obtained Zecora essence but her kimono too. I turned to Lloyd who was stunned by my new look. Lloyd asked, "Are you ok? Jinmay." I felt strong that my heart is filled with hope as I said determination, "Never felt better, Now C'mon we got a future to save."
Hunter POV
The Preeminent was unbeatable, for now. We needed to retreat until we found a different approach. Suddenly, I heard fast-approaching footsteps behind us. I turned to see Sensei Wu and Misako running up. I felt a little relieved at their arrival. "It's too late! We need to get to the ship and protect the people!" Wu told us."But Lloyd's still in The Preeminent!" Jay reminded. Rava added, "Even JInmay Too."I felt more desperate to kill this thing now than flee. There's no way I'm letting it keep my best friend! "This is what Lloyd would have wanted," Misako said in a sort of sad tone. I get it, she'd want us to flee, but I can't just leave her behind! SHe could still be alive in that thing along with Lloyd! SHe could be suffering!
"Hunter! Come on!" I heard Vatu shout. I turned my head to look at everyone."I can't! Jinmay's still in there! I know there's a way to get her out! There has to be!" I protested. "Didn't you hear what Misako said!? Lloyd would have wanted it this way! Even Jinmay too!" Jay reminded me. My hands curled into fists. "But it shouldn't have to end this way! This isn't the way to go! No one should have to die inside this huge eyeball!" I argued. "Not every story has a happy ending, Hunter," Misako said. I shook my head. "But I can make the happy ending happen! All it takes is the will to fight for what you want! In this case, what I want is for my best friend to be alive and safe!" my voice shook from frustration. I just want everything to be okay again! I don't want anyone else in my life to disappear! Losing my father was enough! I can't lose anyone else. I'm afraid I won't recover this time if I lose someone. I suddenly felt someone grip my wrist lightly. I looked up to see that it was Kai."Come on. We may find a way to stop the Preeminent on the way. Lloyd and Jinmay will survive this. Believe me, okay?" he said in a reassuring voice. I finally budged and followed them, my heart sinking yet again and anxious thoughts filling my mind. What if we don't find a way? What if Jinmay dies? What if her spirit is mad at us for leaving her and lloyd behind!? The anxious thoughts sped around in my mind like an exchange of bullets, making me feel like my head was going to explode from the anxiety.
Kai finally let go of my wrist once we were away from the Preeminent. I didn't dare run back. "I wanted to save Lloyd and Jinmay too, Hunter, but sometimes you have to let go. You have to realize when the situation is too much," Kai spoke up as we approached the boat. I remained silent, listening to his words. But that situation wasn't too much...was it? The Preeminent may have been towering, but there had to be a way to stop her. There's always a way to stop everything. We boarded a boat filled with the citizens of Stiix. They all looked terrified and uncertain of what was to come. I suddenly spotted Ronin cutting the line that anchored the ship to shore. I was surprised to find him here, especially after all that he did. You'd think he would have avoided us, but he didn't. I guess my words had reached him pretty well. Then, once the line was cut, Morro landed in front of him.
Cole yelled, "its morro" Jay yelled as well, "Look out ronin"
I said, sound annoyed, "Ugh will he ever give up?!"Now would be the perfect time for Nya to use her powers and kill Morro, but she didn't do it.
"I got him" Kai said, forming fire on both hands however Morro blasted him which caused Kai to be pushed back. Ronin shouted, " Ronin; Go! Get out of here. I got this."I watched Ronin immediately raised the Sword of Sanctuary, fighting Morro and blocking every attack the ghost threw at him. I felt pity for a master thief that I couldn't stand for it. After all, the only one who would beat him is me beside I won't allow my rival to be taken down by some ghosts. I whipped out my grapple gun and shot at the pole. As i pulled away from the boat, Vatu and Kai saw what I'm doing. Morro was about to blast another wind at him but I shot him with an ecto plasma. He manage to dodge it however he hissed when a little drop of the ecto goo got into him. I stood beside Ronin and ready my weapon at him. Ronin said thoughtful, "woah thx hunter i owe you one." I said, "i hope u keep ur word but u can owe me later. Let's show this ghost how we business people do."
Morro glared at us as he blast another wind, this time ronin dodge it even me. I kept blasting him but he used wind to protect himself. Then, he blasted wind at us which cause us to fell and skidded on the ground. He created a powerful wind at us, Ronin hold onto me to prevent me from blowing me away as he losed his gripped on the sword which cause him to let go. Morro managed to get the Sword out of Ronin's hands. The wrathful spirit went to pick up the blade, when suddenly it was taken by someone else whom I recognize. Morro said angrily, "What you again?!"
"YEah I'm back. I believe you have something of mine"Lloyd stood tall, unscathed and pointing the sword at Morro. Morro attacked Lloyd which he was able to doge him. Lloyd said, forming an energy, "try this!"he blasted the energy ball but Morro dodge it. He was about to use wind when someone knocked Morro into a building. I turned to see who it was when that made my heart leap for joy, rising instead of sinking. Jinmay said bluntly, "DOn't forget about me."as they turned to wave at the ninjas. The anxiety I had felt previously disappeared, my mind replacing them with feelings of joy.
On the boat, Wu said when he saw what Lloyd's wearing, "Look, he's got his father's robe."Vatu and Rava rushed over to the rail to JInmay was ok. Vatu said puzzled, "Is that JInmay? Where did she get that?" Rava stared at her kimono until she recognize who it belong. "It's Zecora's......she really did keep her promise."She said with joy.
I run to JInmay and wrap her in a hug. "You little....don't scare me like that!?"I said. JInmay reply, "Sorry about that, right now you should head back to the ship.""Ronin Hunter get to the ship and protect the ship."Lloyd said. We nodded as we head to the ship. He turned to his friends, "Ninjas, take out the stilts. We need to drop the preeiminent into the ship"
Jay said, "why didn't we think that?" Cole said, "thats why he's the leader"
"NINJAGO"They said as they used Airjitzu and head towards the preehiminent. "Vatu Rava Assist the ninjas"Jinmay commanded. Both of them understood and did what they were told as they went after them. I went over the rail and shouted, "JInmay?!"
"Don't worry HUnter I'll be fine Now Go"
I hope I trust her words and said in a low voice, "Pls be careful..."
Lloyd's POV
I watched my friends heading to the preehiminent when We heard Morro got out of the building as we turned to him, He never gets tired of it."Let us handle the blowhard"I said as we got into their stance. "you think your better than me? No one is better than me"Morro said ferociously.
I said to Jinmay, "Just like old times huh?"
Jinmay looked at me and smiled, "Yeah just like old times.."As we battle Morro, to hold him off just long enough for my friends to finish the job.
Vatu POV
We were going to kick the Preeminent's tentacle-y butt instead! We nodded and jumped back onto the docks in a flash. Hunter stayed on the boat, watching us as we started to destroy the stilts holding up the dock. I used my ancient claw to destroyed the stilts all at the same time while Rava used wind cutter to cut through it. The dock started to cave in immediately, making creaking sounds as it fell.
Jinmay POV
While we were distracting Morro, we felt the docks rumbling when he didn't realize that the Ninja sever many of the stilts, which causes The Preeminent to begin falling towards the sea. Morro turned to see his master, "No, they're taking out the support!"
I said sarcastically, "Hey we're ninjas, what do you expect?"
Morro said in frustration, "No!" when all of a sudden he used the realm crystal to portal as he went in. I wondered where he go then out of nowhere, he appeared behind us as we were knocked out by his wind. We were about to attack him but he wasn't there then Morro used that trick again and knocked us out. This is really annoying!
Morro orders his army to protect The Preeminent as he turned to me and notice Lloyd wasn't with me. I smirked at him as Lloyd attacked him when Morro opened the portal as he went in and Lloyd jumped in after him before closing it. I went to where he was, I said, "Shoot How am I suppose to get to him?"Then I recalled that Zecora was able to travel through 16 realms. Since I obtained her wisdom, if she can do it so can I. I focused my power to where I want to go and my Eye is letting me know where I want to be. A portal appeared in front of me and hope if it works as I jumped in.
When I arrive, I was in a different realm then I saw Lloyd was attacked by spiders. It really worked as I went over to him and morph my scepter into a scythe. I merely ward off the spiders and save him. Lloyd said, who was holding off the spider, "How did you get here?"
"Let's just say I had trick up on my sleeve, Where's Morro?"
We turned to see Morro was on somekind of ferris wheel made with bones. He said to Morro, "YOu and I can go on fighting forever *open portal* or I'll take the realm crystal and leave you behind forever." Lloyd pushed the spider off and said, "your not getting away."As he used airjitzu and I went after him as well. When we reached there, Morro already jumped in and we had to jumped in after him.
We arrived from another realm but this tome it looked pretty dark even the sky and mountains. Lloyd and Morro bumped into each other and fell which cause the realm crystal to drop on the crater edge. I manage to grab the realm crystal then turned to see Lloyd and Morro running towards to me, fighting over the realm crystal. Lloyd manage to hit him off as he grabbed the crystal from me and opened the portal as he pulled me into the portal which we didn't notice Morro followed us behind.
We arrived from another and we were in the sky. I saw Lloyd was in a distance as I try to reach him when morro came and kicked me aside which made me flipped over. I shook my head and recognize the towers. We were falling in Cloud Kingdom, I guess the crystal didn't perfected a landing. I turned to see Morro grabbed the crystal from him, I speed over there and grabbed his arm. As i opened the portal to prevent us from falling.
Then, the portal took us to unknown place which i'm not farmilar with (A/N probably CHIMA) while falling as we landed on the ground. Morro swing his arm off me as I rolled over off the slope. I looked up to see strange animals in armor were staring at us. The lion said, "Hey where you guys come from?"Morro took the crystal from Lloyd as he opened the portal and closed behind it. The animals turned to me as I manage to get up and opened another portal. I turned to them, "Sorry Don't mind us, just passing through."as I jumped into the portal.
Back at Stixx
Rava POV
We thought we finally got rid of that monster as We climbed up onto the dock, only to see that Morro's army of ghosts attach temples and buildings to its body to create a massive "suit" for it that would give the beast legs and prevent it from making contact with the water. The Preeminent's armor had grown. Now she truly looked like a poorly made Halloween costume."Whoa," I heard Cole say in amazement. Jay said, " Just when you thought you've seen it all..."Vatu groaned in disappointment, " seriously not cool."
I reminded, "There is no need to complain...we must defeat her before she hurt anyone else."We immediately jumped roof to roof, going after the monster. I proceeded to sprint after it, making sure not to miss a step and fall as I jumped roof to roof. Once I was close enough to the unsightly eyeball, I leaped onto one of the buildings on it, falling through the window on it. The others joined me inside shortly after."Doctor, it appears our patient needs to have her knee be put on ice," Jay told Zane, imitating a nurse's voice. The nindroid nodded and froze the room around us, in hopes of freezing The Preeminent in her tracks.
Unfortunately, it was unaffective and didn't phase the monster at all. We began to climb out of the building and started to make our way upward, when we were sidetracked by the various ghosts that infested the area around the eyeball monster. Immediately, everyone except Nya pulled out their Aeroblades, proceeding to fight the many spirits that surrounded us. As we fought, Kai slipped and fell off the building into the water. Instantly, I started to feel worry, as I recalled that he can't swim."Kai!" I heard Vatu call as she looked over the side. Zane rushed to the side, unleashing a beam of ice below. After a few moments, I heard Jay say "Fire and ice make water, nice! Now one more ghost is toast!"
I watched Zane help Kai back up. He looked to be okay, though, I wondered how he stayed afloat if he couldn't swim."I thought you said you can't swim," Vatu said. "I can't. The Deepstone is what kept me above water. They should put this stuff on life jackets!" Kai said as he looked down at the Deepstone on his gi. Well, looks like it does have a use after all! "Well, we aren't really doing any good here. We need to return to the ship," Nya broke in. I had to agree with her. Our attacks didn't seem to be affecting The Preeminent at all. We all agreed and jumped down, landing on the buildings that were the last of Stiix.
We ran across them and jumped back on the boat just in time. Sensei Wu and Misako met up with us once we landed."If we're going to destroy The Preeminent, we're going to have to do more," Sensei observed, looking at the eyeball-like beast as it expelled another mass of ghosts."There's not much fuel left in this ship either! Once we reached to Hollows Trench...." Ronin added. "Hollows Trench...Do you think it's deep enough to drown that thing!?" Kai questioned. "It could...what do you say, Zane?" Jay asked the android."I say we give it a go. It just might work, if my calculations are correct," Zane said, giving the go. The boat instantly started to speed up, getting farther from land. Unfortunately, The Preeminent approached the ship, ripping the propeller right off. Screams erupted from inside the ship as terrified civilians caught sight of The Preeminent. I started to feel worried. Lloyd and Jinmay wasn't here again, The Preeminent is too close for comfort, the propeller for the ship is gone, leaving us immobile, and there's nothing we can do now! It was just best to accept that this was the end.
Suddenly, I could hear the sound of water rushing all around. I looked around for the source, but all I could find was water flying through the air towards the north. I started to walk to the other side of the ship when I froze in amazement. A water tornado was surrounding Nya, to which the Ninja marveled at. I could slightly see a wave forming behind The Preeminent. We were going to win! "She's unlocked her True Potential," I heard Kai said in a proud and quiet voice. Vatu cheered, "ALRIGHT!!!" The wave behind The Preeminent continued to grow, now towering over the monster. Then, it's crashed onto the eyeball like a tsunami. I could hear Morro screaming "No!" as his master collapsed into the ocean, along with his colleagues.
I saw Sensei Wu jump overboard and onto his dragon, flying over to the scene. I knew he's going to Morro, he maybe a bad person but still I felt sorry for him. I was about to go after him when I felt a touch on the shoulder. I turned to see Vatu and said, "Where are you going?"
"To Morro, I'm going to help him...."
"What?! he's terrible he did bad things...."
"I know but....deep down he's my friend. I swear myself to never make that mistake. I may have lost him before it is something I can't repeat."
VAtu stared at me in the eye and understood as he let go of me. I thanked him as I morphed into my crow form. I arrived as I roamed around where he was when I saw the Prieminent grabbed Morro's waist, to drag him in the water. Wu flew closer to him and reached out his hand. "Take my hand Morro!"Sensei said.
" Why so you can take the Realm Crystal and use it to find your own priced pupil!"Morro asked.
"Your all my priced pupils, but none of us can do this alone!"Sensei said, "You're strong Morro, but it takes others to make us stronger. Even me! Take my hand, so we can be stronger together! Please Morro!"
Morro grabbed Sensei's hand just in time. He was about, to fall in the water. But the Prieminent was too strong, deep inside, the he know it. "You can only save those who want to be saved, goodbye, Sensei..."Morro said, giving Sensei Wu the Realm Crystal. "Morro!?"He shouted.
I can't lost him, he may cause terrible things, but he wasn't bad. I morphed back into my human form as I jumped before morro reached into the water. I managed to grab his hand the first time as I clutched onto Wu's Dragon. Sensei Wu was shocked that I was here. Morro looked up to see that I was there, holding his hand tightly trying not to let go.
"Oh its you What are you doing here? Are you here to punished me?"He said regret. I said, "No no more suffering, not until......i saved you."Morro blinked at me as my gripped on the dragon slip but Wu grabbed my hand. Wu said, "I got you..."I stared at Wu then at Morro, "Morro, you were everything to me and i should have never left you back there when you needed me the most. Ever since I met you, you showed me and taught me everything about this world, I was happy to be your companion." Morro noticed that my eyes were filled with tears as I continued, " THen, I realize I'm more than just your companion. You were the greatest friend i ever had, if hadn't been for you i wouldn't become the person whom i was today."
Morro was stirred by my words as I was merely holding tight becoz I felt the preehiminents weight is pulling us hard. I said wearily, "....even though you did something wrong, someone once told me; always forgive someone, no matter what they have done to you. I may have left you before and now i won't leave you again. Now hold on, I will get you out of here."I focused my wind as I try to slice through its tentacles however my wind gotten weak due to the fight. I felt I'm barely losing his grip. "Hang on I can still save..."I said hopefully.
I gripped hard as I can but I also felt Wu can't grabbed onto me much longer, so was his power dragon. At this rate, we will be dragged into the sea. As I was merely hanging tight when I felt another hand, I turned to see Morro placed his other hand on me. He looked at me and smiled with sympathy, "Let go, Its ok..... YOu've done eneough for me, And I'm sorry for everything."
I know what he meant as I plead him, "No don't say that....I can still save you."
"No i don't want you to feel the same way I do beside you have your own life and you have someone waiting for you. You wouldn't want your friends to worry would you?"
I felt silence, realizing that he's right I have my own life. I have a friend who is waiting for me as he said, "your lucky to have friends.....y'know something we may not be related but if i had a sister like you i should have listened."
I closed my eyes then smiled, " I'm already did....also you already are my brother after all you are a ninja."Morro looked at me in surprised look and chuckled, "I'm glad you were my friend and stop me till the very end. its an honor battling with you,Thank you for being there for me.....Goodbye Birdy, my sister." Finally, I lost grip on him as he let go of his hand. I watched him dissolved into the water.
Sensei Wu was able to pull me up onto his dragon as I gave him a hug to comfort myself. Wu said, "I'm sorry you didn't saved him." We pulled away from the hug and said, "Actually, I already did save him, His soul is free."We exchanged depressed look as we head back to the boat. I glanced back to where the preehiminent is, Morro's last word were pleasant and kind that he called her by her old name and a sister. I sighed in grieved and said, "Rest in peace brother"
Hunter's POV
We rejoice that they defeated the Preehiminent, even Ronin was impressed too. I turned to see that Sensei had returned, a depressed frown on his face. Something must have happened."Morro is now gone," he notified us all, holding up the Realm Crystal for all to see. I felt pretty relieved that he was gone now, but I felt sorry for Sensei Wu. To see one of his students die again has to be rough, though, if only he knew of the vile things that Morro did. Even Rava felt it too.
Then, Sensei opened a portal with the crystal, allowing Lloyd and Jinmay to come through. When they fall, Lloyd manage to land on his feet but for Jinmay.....she tripped on his feet and smashed against Lloyd, letting them both blusing on the floor. I end up laughing my heart out. "Pretend you didn't see that"he said, while getting on his feet, helping Jinmay. "I don't think she can,"Rava said, pointing to me.
I was laughing so hard that my eyes were a bit teary, and my stomach hurted. Finally I calmed down, more or less. "Sorry hehe... but you have to admit it was really funny."I chuckled. Misako immediately ran to hug her son. Lloyd proceeded to kiss his mother on the cheek."Sorry, forgot about that earlier, Mom," he smiled. Misako smiled too, her eyes glistening as she let go of him. Vatu said, wrapping my arms around Jinmay's neck, "Dude, you had me worried but Glad you're okay."he let go and stepped back, the both of them smiling. "Glad you're okay too," Jinmay said.
He proceeded to tell us about what happened, and how being the Green Ninja doesn't mean he always he has to save the day, as he has friends like us to rely on. I felt tears of joy stream from my eyes after he talked, and a sense of happiness came over the whole group. Misako said to Lloyd, "And that's why destiny chose you."Jinmay smiled proudly at him, "as they say with age comes with wisdom"
"It appears your father's robe has imparted your wisdom, but you still have a lot to master before you earn the Sensei title," Sensei Wu said to him. Lloyd nodded in understanding."If that's the path I'm on, I'll take it one step at a time. The Cursed Realm is gone and so is my father, but I know they're in a better place," he gave a sort of melancholic smile as he spoke, possibly reflecting on his father. JInmay said, "Yeah I'm pretty sure he might be."
Wu turned to JInmay, holding the crystal, "I think this belong to you since you are the master of spirit."Jinmay stared at the realm crystal and gave a slight push to Wu hand's. "I believe you should hold on to that."Everyone was confused that she didn't take the crystal. Vatu asked puzzled, "Don't we need the Realm Crystal?"
Jinmay shook her head, "No I got something better...."she used the Eye of ages to open a little portal, revealing all the realms in the palm of her hand. Vatu and Rava were gaped when she saw that. Jinmay said, "Let's just say I obtained Zecora's essence and her wisdom. After all, she entrusted the crystal to the first spinjitzu master so I think i should entrust it to you. But make sure you used it wisely, ok?"
Who would thought that Jinmay entrusted the all the 16 realms to them? I guess that what makes her a part of being the spirit master. Jay turned to Jinmay and Lloyd, sound excited, "so what the other realms look like?"I was curious about it too, "Yeah Jinmay, I wanna know too."Lloyd and Jinmay exchange look as Lloyd answered, "Let's just say everything looks bright, for us and for all of Ninjago."
I sighed that those two were not telling us anything but I guess I should leave it that. It seems that everything is gonna be peaceful. Then, I remembered something that today is February 9th , Ninjago's New Year's Day. It is a special day for JInmay, I walk over to her. "Jinmay...."I said, which caught everyone's attention. I smiled at her and said, "Today is your special day remember, its february 9th."JInmay tilt her head for a moment then she remembered. Jinmay nodded as she walk over to the edge of the deck. Zane asked, "What do you mean, Today is her special day?"I didn't say anything, they couldn't help but wonder why i was smilling. Jinmay stood there, staring at the sea. She closed her eyes as I watched her began to sing.
Rest now.....my warrior.
Rest now, hardship is over.
They were astound by her song unlike they never heard. It is different from the lullaby she sang to me. We watched when we saw tint of lights coming out of nowhere. The land, the sea and the air.
Live. Wake up. Wake up.
And let the cloak, of life - cling to your heart. Cling to your heart.
Wake up. Wake up.
Everyone stared at the glimering lights, There dozens of them. Nya asked, "Is this jinmay's doing? Kai said, "What are these things?"Zane informed, "my scan indicates that these lights looked like spiritual entities."the ninjas didn't understand what Zane meant so I pointed out, "in other words; they're souls."
Cole exclaim, "Y'mean these things are.....ghosts."
Vatu answered, "If you put it that way, yes. Don't worry they're just spirits which were wandering lost."We turned to see Jinmay kept on singing and the spirits went to her almost like gathering. Wu asked, "Why would she....?"
Live. Wake up. Wake up.
And let the cloak, of life - cling to your heart. Cling to your heart.
Wake up. Wake up!
Rava explained to them, "Y'see every year she performs a ritual to send all the spirits, its like purification. And the reason is her special day is becoz it is the day where she met Hunter, Isn't it?"They turned to me and I said, "Yeah ever since my exile, she told me that she is going to do a ritual and we made a promise that i would see it someday. I glad I get to see it at long last."We were amazed the spirits gathered around as they went into the sky. Lloyd wondered, "Where are they going?"
Live! Wake up! Wake up!
And let the cloak, of life - cling to your heart. Cling to your heart.
Wake up! Wake up!
I said skeptically, "the same place where they're going; Home to the spirit realm. Its her job as a master of spirit to send them into the light."We get to watch as many spirits were leaving and hoping to be reborn again. I hate to admit it was beautiful, they look like fireflies ligthing our hearts as she ended her song.
Wake up! Wake up!
While the spirits were floating, among them were 2 glowing orbs as it came to us circling around. One was circling around Wu, Misako and Lloyd while the other is circling Rava. The two orbs return back to its position. We were confuse why it was circling on them. One orb glow brightly as it made wind gust. It was strange as they flown back into the sky. We have no idea what it was when Rava realized who they are.
She walk towards Wu, Misako and Lloyd. "Sensei that was Morro back there I recognize that wind. But he's not alone, your brother is there too."She said. They were shocked that Morro and Garmadon were there. Lloyd said with a smile, "So dad was there...."Jinmay said to him, "I told you he might be...."
Wu said, "So is Morro....."Vatu said, "Don't worry maybe one day or someday you might see them. I'm pretty sure you might run into each other."They nodded with a happy face. I notice that both of them were glowing somehow, even the ninjas too. Kai asked, "um guys why are you guys glowing?"Vatu and Rava looked at themselves, he was right they ]are glowing. Something came out of their chest which turned to be the jade beads as they shattered into thin air. The light began to surround them from the legs to the hips then to the whole body. We covered our eyes to prevent from blindness as the light came down.
We opened our eyes to see that Vatu and Rava were still there but something different about them. I asked, "Are you guys feelling different?"Rava said strangely, "I think so...we felt tingly somehow."JInmay looked at them carefully when she notice about Vatu. Jinmay said, pointing his head, "Vatu your ears they're...."
"What? What about my...."Vatu said, touching his head and he notice his wolf ears were gone, so was his tail. You know to be honest, I kinda like having his ear and tail coz they're cute. Vatu said disbelief, "Wait....my ears my tail they're gone which means."he raised his hand and shout , "Ancient Claw."But nothing happen, Rava try to focus on casting an illusion but didn't work. I added, "Try morphing into your wolf form."Vatu nodded as he try to change by jumping but instead he fall flatly on the floor. Kai and Jay can't help snickered as they help him get up. Rava said realization, "The curse beads they're gone which means......"
Vatu said cheerful, "We're human again.....we're free woohoo yeah alright freedom baby. No more wolf ear for me"as he started dancing around on the deck which cause us to laugh. I notice that Cole wasn't laughing then I remember, despite that he's a ghost now that Rava is no longer a spirit guradian.
Jinmay realized already and she try to use her spiritual powers to remove the curse from him, nothing happen somehow it repelled. Jinmay said apologetic, "Sorry Cole I don't think my power isn't strong enough to break that curse."Cole sigh in depression when Rava comfort him. "Do not worry, I told you before didn't we that we will go through this together."Rava assured. Cole turned to her and gave a smile that its going to be ok. I watched as she hold Cole's hand when it began to show his solid form. The ninjas gaped when they saw his hand, even my friends. Rava and Cole pulled away from each as his hand turned transparent.
Nya said puzzled, "Did Cole's hand just....?"Cole stared at his hand as if nothing out of the ordinary. He went closer to touch Rava's hand, his hand became solid as the moment he pulled away it turned back again. Kai said, "Wait how was that possible? GHosts can't just became solid."Jay tried as he went over to him instead Jay's hand just went through Cole's body. Jay said, "Why didn't work? How were you able to change back?"COle had simply had no idea when Vatu thought of something. "Rava, do you mind touch Cole again? This time on his chest...."He requested. Cole shrugged when he told her that. Rava wouldn't mind as she placed her hand on his chest, it showed his solid form. We were surprise and confuse that Rava was able to touch him while they can't.
"Apparently it would seem that Rava was only one who was able to feel him."Zane conclude. "It has something to do with the two of you...."Lloyd noted. I said with teasing tone, "....or maybe both of you have special connection."Both of them blushed and turned their face from each other.
Jinmay squealed when they notice their reaction, "Aw....that's so cute when you two blushed."Rava stared at him and said, "It would seem we are not the same but It doesn't matter. I'll teach you how to control them just like how I master back in the days.
