Chapter thirty
3rd person POV
Knights, (Y/N), and Clay went to training in the holo-room. The team was off-track and screwed up as Clay endlessly attacked the squirebots, ignoring the calls (Y/N) to stop the attack. The girl sighed, slapping her forehead with her open hand.
Knowing that from the thread training, Lance took Aaron and (Y/N) to the living room. He made them sit on chairs and watch his movie about being a good leader. Watching this, Aaron and (Y/N) looked at him like "You're kidding me" with a mix of "Please let it end" while Lance smiled at them. When the show ended, Lance asked to be paid for the movie.
- Lance, we're not going to pay you for this. Anyway, this movie is online for free.- said (Y / N).
- I know, but pay anyway. You don't go to the movies for free either. -he said, when his pig Hamletta approached them with a piggy bank on her back.
Aaron groaned in annoyance making the piggy go away. Merlok appeared on the screen in front of them.
- Knights! As we approach the royal castle of Knightonia, get ready to present a summary of Jestro's recent activities to the royal couple. -he said and disappeared.
(Y/N) sighed in disappointment.
"Knights and ninja. -she muttered to herself.
Aaron put his hand on her shoulder, smiling consolingly. She smiled at him, then got up and headed for the exit from the living room.

The knights appeared in front of the castle door where the king and queen waited for them.
- Your Majesty, we announce that we have won the battle against Jestro and the Cloud of Monstrox. Moreover, we have finished off most of their army. -Aaron said.
- Oh, I'm so glad! But it still bothers me that they are still at large, who knows what they are up to. -the king worried.
Then Clay stepped forward.
- Do not fear the king, I will save your kingdom, no matter what the cost. In the duel, I will defeat Jestro and the Monstrox Cloud.
- Alone?- Aaron asked.
- Yes, because the stone will overcome everything. -he said, snarling.
Lance smiled.
- Except for the paper. Do you grab a rock, scissors, paper? -he asked with a stupid smirk at which Clay growled and his eyes glowed yellow.
Lance shut up after that. Clay turned back to the king.
- King. The Clay you knew no longer exists. Me as a vengeful Gray Knight will eliminate all threats in the kingdom. -he said then turned and started to walk away.
Everyone looked at him with concern.
- Hm. Clay seems more and more... fierce. -Axl said.
"He seems quite... brusque. -said the queen.
- He's been like that for a while. I need to talk to him. -Macy said, but Axl stopped her.
"Okay, now let's do... -began (Y/N).
"(Y/N)!! -Clay called, making her jump.
The girl sighed. - I'm going! God... I can protect myself. Well... then I will go, bye!
Everyone looked at each other confused.
= Meanwhile with Jestro and monsters =
Monstrox, Jestro, and Ruina Stoneheart stood by the fire, devising a plan.
- From my point of view, if we want to rule the kingdom. We have to go and find new forbidden powers.- Monstrox said.
- It may be a good idea, but time is short. Not to mention that gray and yellow knight. The last meeting with them was... painful. -Jestro said.
- If by painful you mean, they almost got us? It's like that.- Monstrox agreed.
- Hm. What to do with our moody knights. -the jester wondered.
Ruina walked over to the clown.
- I'll take care of them willingly. I know best how to speak to this boy and girl. - she assured.
Monstrox and Jestro laughed malevolently.

(Y / N) POV
I stared, eyebrow raised, at Clay, who was sorting the weapons to sharp and blunt. The boy got irritated and approached Ava asking if she had tracked Jestro and the cloud but nothing. Macy walked over to him and started talking to him.
I smiled as I looked at them, we heard the alarm signaling Monstrox's attack. Clay walked over to the table, grabbed the swords, and left the command center. Me and Macy looked at each other and followed him along with the others. As I was flying on the dragon, I started to hear a voice.
- Come to me (Y/N) and you'll find out everything. You will know the truth (Y/N). (Y/N), (Y/N)!- this witch's voice called me.
I shook my head losing focus, landed on the side of the road feeling dizzy. I rubbed my temples as I felt the migraine. Aaron rode over to me.
- Everything's all right?- he asked, getting out of the vehicle and approaching me.
I shook my head one more time and looked at him feeling dazed.
"Just like that... my head is spinning and I can't concentrate. - I said.
"Come on, come with me. - he said, holding out his hand.
- Okay. -I said, taking his hand.
He led me to the vehicle and we followed the others to Fortrex.
= Skip time =
We stood in command center watching Ava show us the Lance videos. I heard the sound of sharpening and looked in that direction. Clay sharpened his sword with a stone as if nothing had happened. I walked over to him.
- Hey, Clay.
He ignored me and kept sharpening his sword. I sighed and leaned back against the table.
- I have a question for you. - I said.
He grunted, signaling that he was listening.
- It's about the witch, that we tried to attack. Did you also hear her voice in your head?
He stopped sharpening his sword for a moment and nodded, muttering the name "Ruina Stoneheart".
- Hm. Strange thing, others don't complain about it, why only we heard it.
He shrugged, frowning and starting to sharpen his sword again until we heard the alarm.
- False signal again?- Clay asked.
- Not. Not this time, what's more, I sense the power of three forbidden powers there. -Merlok said.
Clay tossed the rock back.
"So it's time to play the final battle. - he said.
- Clay, my boy. You don't know what awaits you there is... difficult business, you should stay here! You and (Y/N) .- said Merlok.
I became confused. Why should I stay?
- No chance, Merlok. -Clay said.
- Knights... -Aaron began, but he noticed my gaze.
- I mean ... Knights and ninja are going over there. - he said.
Clay and we went to fight the monsters and Jestro. Aaron started giving orders, but Clay disobeyed. He turned off his communicator and attacked alone, surprisingly, defeating monsters. Monstrox ordered a retreat, but Clay relentlessly followed.
- (Y/ N), Macy! Follow Clay! -Aaron said.
- Got it! -I said, and sped up the dragon.
= Skip time =
Me and Macy got to where Clay was, and he tried to push Jestro off the cliff with his sword drawn. This witch, Ruina Stoneheart, struck a lightning bolt at Clay. Macy lunged at her, but she pushed her away with lightning bolts.
Clay attacked the witch and they fell off the cliff. I gasped and jumped with them to save the knight from his own stupidity. The Witch and Clay got up with a groan and dusted themselves off. Stoneheart coughed and we glared at her. We started to attack, but she laughed and pushed us away with lightning. Clay gasped.
- How do you do that?! How are you defeating us?!
The woman laughed and walked over to us. - Do you think Merlok told you the truth about who you really are?
- Merlock? -We asked at the same time.
- Yes, our three of us connect more than you both think. -she said.
- What? Don't lie to us, witch! -Clay shouted.
- I'm not lying. You weren't supposed to be knights! -she said.
- For the hundredth time, I repeat, I am no knight. I am a ninja, I come from Ninjago and I defend the good! -I said.
The woman laughed mockingly at my statement.
"How would you know?!- Clay asked.
- I know that, because ... I'm your mother, Clay! -she said.
I widened my eyes in shock and felt a lump in my throat.
- What?...No, this is one of your spells! -I exclaimed in disbelief.
- You're trying to confuse us!- Clay said, half shocked.
She turned her back on us, but I swear I hear her smile. - The time has come for you to learn the truth, my children.
Clay got to his feet slowly. -... Mother?
She turned to us and Clay growled angrily and attacked her. She caught him with a magical aura and threw him back onto the cliff. I got up and looked at her still in shock.
"W-How is it...possible that... no, it doesn't make sense. It can't be... -I said.
She smiled malevolently at me. I growled at her not in anger, but in pain.
- Join me (Y/N), we will fight together like mother and daughter. We will be unstoppable. -she said coming up to me.
I looked down at the horizon. I looked at her and started backing up to the edge.
- No. I will not be like you. I'm not going to turn into a monster! -I said and jumped off the ledge.
I created a dragon and flew as far away from this place as possible.
= Skip time =
It was dark, I landed on a forest road. I recalled the dragon and walked over to the tree. I leaned against him and slid to the ground. I hugged my legs and started crying. I'm fed up, it's too much for me. I started crying about everything.
About arguing with Lloyd, about having to fight everything all the time, here is that Ninjago is under Garmadon's control, but most of all about my family. First, I woke up on the edge of a village in Ninjago as a little girl and became a hero there, and suddenly a guy sends me here and it turns out that this is my home and, strangely, I don't remember anything about it.

3rd person POV
They were all standing in the command center in a semicircle. They all looked at each other in conflict as Clay stared at the ground angry. The silence lasted forever until Robin, confused by the knights' glances, asked.
- What happened?
Still silence, and Macy sighed.
"Clay ... we should talk. - she said, putting her hand on the boy's shoulder, but he ignored her and went to the training room.
Merlok looked sadly at the knights and then disappeared. Clay was standing holding his sword in the holo-room as the wizard appeared on the screen.
- You knew. Everything. Didn't you? -Clay asked angrily, looking at the wizard.
- I was still waiting for the right moment to tell you the truth, Clay. About Ruina ... was your mother and (Y/N) being your sister. I knew you would have to find out about your family one day, but not that way.
Clay growled and shot a magic beam from his hand at the wizard's screen. He gasped and looked at the hand. The Merlok hummed.
- Yes, that's correct. You're also magically gifted Clay, perhaps more than your mom. Or even myself. I think (Y/N) probably too.- he said.
The knight grabbed his head and turned his back on the Merlok.
"Who... am I?!- he asked.
- You are the Nexo Knight... and more. -Merlok said softly.
Clay tensed and turned sharply at him, firing a beam of magic.
- Go ... leave me. GO!! - he shouted.
Merlok was frightened by his nephew's outburst and disappeared. The wizard returned to the others, and as he was about to clarify the situation with Clay and (Y / N), the knight came and had him locked up in an electronic prison to Macy's immediate protest, but made it clear to her and the others that he must not be trusted.
Macy turned to Merlok for help, but after one scowl from Clay, he agreed with him. The knights regretfully imprisoned Clay in prison, but one of them could not come to terms with it and released him, who was Macy. Clay begged her to lock him back, but she refused. Furious, Clay attacked her and they started to fight.
Clay, still in his right mind, orders her locked him up in jail when Merlok appeared on the screen and listened to them arguing. When the knight noticed him, he ordered to use nexo power on him to immobilize him, but the sorcerer disagreed.
Clay then used new abilities on Macy's shield and summoned the first nexo power he had created and forced the girl to use it on him, which in effect immobilized him. Macy gasped in horror as the others ran. Ran away crying.

3rd person POV
The girl was still crying until the wind began to gather. The wind whirled around the road where she was, slowly it traveled to the ninja and began to circle around her. (Y / N) looked surprised, when she heard female whispers. "High in the mountains" "The master is coming" "Aya" "Temple".
"Aya?
"Follow"... "Follow"... "Follow"... - the whisper called, the wind with a mixture of dust and flower petals flew up and flew away.
The ninja looked around, wiping the streaks of tears from her eyes. She created a dragon and followed the wind.
A / N: Well, it's getting closer to the end, right? And we have information that the name (Y/N) is (Y/N) Moorington. Interesting right? See you in the next chapter, comrades!
