I Want A Pay Raise
I swear this is literally the last time I'm going to write a full-on fanfiction in one day for school.
Jay: You shouldn't swear, it's a sign of weak verbal skills.
Me: Shut up and go back to your own realm dumbass.
Also, Colekessler1 your dare is coming up.
I just need to find time to get some ideas for where, when, and how this should go, and I have a pretty good idea for it, so here's just a filler thing that I wrote for school.
It's very rushed and probably really bad so enjoy?
The Tale Of Ninjago
Once upon a time, in a land far from your grasp, a land only obtained in dreams, there were 4 kingdoms. Wintersong, the land of the kind, Mystique, the land of the intelligent, Vigilance, the land of the brave, and finally, NercoCrypt, the land of the cunning. Each kingdom was at war with each other for as long as time itself, forming alliances, breaking alliances, bloodshed, and other things. No one knew why the 4 kingdoms fought, but it was most likely being because they all didn't understand each other. Our tale first starts in the kingdom of Mystique, where a coronation was taking place.
"Please, not that tight." Princess Kaylee struggled to breathe, the maid tightening her dress slightly tighter than she liked. The maid gives a slight nod and then loosens it just slightly, just as she liked.
"Is this good enough?" The maid asks the young princess, bowing.
"Yes! Thank you so much, Kathy!" The princess gives her maid a hug. "You've been there since birth, no need to call me princess." Kaylee smiles.
"It is quite against the rules princess, but do run along. I am not sure if your brother would like you being late to his coronation, and also Pixal's." Kathy smiles, ushering the girl out. The Princess ran to the throne room, where she was supposed to be at, waving and saying "Hi!" to each servant and maid on her way. Once she got there, she quickly stood next to her side of the throne room, waving quickly to her elder brother, Zane, and his fiance, Pixal. Pixal was in many ways, Kaylee's older sister, than a sister-in-law. Daughter of a wealthy vassal, and close friends with the royal children, it wasn't a matter of time when the two started dating, and soon after the king died, leaving Zane, the eldest in charge of the kingdom, and the new leader of the war. The guests soon file in after the Princess's arrival and took their respective seats. Once all was silent, the Archbishop stood in front of the couple, for them to say the coronation oath.
"Sir, and Madam, is your majesty willing to take the Oath?" The Archbishop spoke, with a deep and heavy tone, much like her father.
"We are willing to." Pixal and Zane confirm.
"Will you solemnly promise and swear to protect Mystique and it's people with all of your power, and take on the mantle of war leader in the war?" The Archbishop looks at the royal couple, waiting for an answer.
"We solemnly promise." The answer came immediately.
"Will, you to your power cause Law and Justice, in Mercy, to be executed in all your judgments?" The Archbishop asks. Kaylee paws at her gown, nervous.
"We solemnly promise." The same answer as before, delivered with dignity and deliberation.
"Will you to the utmost of your power maintain the Laws of The First Spinjitzu Master and the true profession of the Scrolls? Will you to the utmost of your power maintain the kingdom of Mystique? And will you preserve unto the Bishops and Clergy of Mystique, and to the Churches there committed to their charge, all such rights, and privileges, as by law do or shall appertain to them or any of them?" The final question came.
"We solemnly promise."
"Then by the power vested in me, I declare both of you, the new rulers of Mystique!" The Archbishop places crowns on their heads and the crowd erupted in cheers. It was a dawn of a new rule in Mystique.
But in the nearby kingdom of NercoCrypt, the king was plotting something sinister.
"I want to launch a full-scale attack on Mystique! Since there is a new king, we'll take them by surprise!" The king of NercoCrypt slams his hand on the desk, making his advisors cower beneath his stare. His 3 children, watching their usually kind father becoming less and less like the man they knew.
"Your majestys, you shouldn't be here!" A servant addressed the children.
"Sorry, Jonas." The 3 chorused together.
"Run along now, you don't want anyone catching you." Jonas shoos the children away.
"That was so boring Seliel, why couldn't we go somewhere else to play?" Morro whines. Being the youngest child was hard, especially for Morro since he had to follow his two older sisters.
"Why don't we go and play jacks?" Skylor jumps up and down, excitedly waiting for the eldest's verdict. She caves in and the two children pull their sister to the castle garden.
"Jay! Wait up!" Cole yells, chasing after his younger brother through the castles of Wintersong. It wasn't common to see a sight like this, as the young prince loved to run around the castle, evading capture.
"You can't catch me!!!" Jay singsongs as he ran straight into his mother.
"Jay!" She scolds. "You shouldn't be running around the castle so much! You could get hurt!"
"That's, what, I, was, trying, to, do!" Cole pants.
"Oopsie." Jay giggles.
"Anyways, run along now children." The queen quickly pushes the two siblings into the courtyard before quickly leaving, muttering something about Djinnjago, and the end of all kingdoms.
"Hiyah! Fists of fury! You can't even see them! I'm so fast!" The youngest child crows as he trains in the training yard, that the castle of Vigilance commonly had.
"Save the gloating, it can only be used against you by your enemy." Sensei Wu preaches, drinking his tea. In the corner, the princess was meditating, a common practice before the battle. Meanwhile, the elder prince was practicing his sword skills with Master Garmadon.
"Patient your majesty, the sword is an extension of your hand. Use it wisely." Garmadon says, engaged in a sword fight with Kai.
"Pardon me Sensei, but if we can't go out to the battlefield, why practice?" Nya asks, finally standing up from her meditation.
"It is imperative that you make sure that you are well-trained in the arts of war so that when any other kingdoms attack the castle, you are fit to defend yourself." The Sensei answers.
"Peace is so boring! I'd rather fight in the gladiator arena!" Lloyd punches the wood one more time, before sitting down.
"The gladiator arena is a fight to the death, and your mother and father rather have you all alive and well." Garmadon dryly exclaims, as he quickly knocks the sword from Kai's hand.
"But all I'm doing is meditating! That's so boring!" Nya sighs.
"Because a princess is not fit to be in battle!" Wu says for at least the thousandth time. "Your mother requested that you accompany your brothers to watch them, and to learn to meditate."
"Boring! I'd rather invent something." Nya rolls her eyes, as both Sensei and Master looked at her.
"Inventing is something the Mystiques do. It is not something Vigilance would ever do, and especially not their princess." Garmadon scolds. "If you are inventing anything, I suggest you throw any evidence of it out. Now." The princess sighs, as she got up and was escorted to her room.
"I don't get it Sensei, what's wrong with inventing?" Kai asks.
"Mystiques are the only ones who dabble in such idiocy. I don't even know who named them the intelligent ones." Master Garmadon put away his sword. "Now, it's time for lunch, and you shouldn't be late." The two princes quickly ran off at the sound of lunch.
"NercoCrypt is attacking! Quick sound the alarm!" A messenger ran through the castle of Mystique, running to the throne room.
"I want all of us on defense, equal lines of defense on all city walls, and get the citizens to safety!" Zane commands.
"Yes Your Grace!" General number 1 salutes, then runs out the door, followed by other generals.
"Sir Borg, you must get all of our important equipment out and into the safe house. If the kingdom of NercoCrypt gets their hands on it, it may be the end of all kingdoms." Zane commands.
"Go with my father Kaylee." Pixal commands.
"But, you guys, what?" Kaylee stutters.
"If Mystique falls you are our last line of defense. Go, sister!" Zane quickly pushes the princess and she turns and runs off.
"Sir Borg!" Kaylee catches up to the master inventor. "What should I carry?" She asks.
"I need you to carry these two bags." He throws burlap bags at her. It was quite light, just as a feather, but not quite. "These are important blueprints. I will carry the rest." Sir Borg drapes two heavy bags on his shoulder and starts opening a secret passage. "After you, Your Majesty."
"Thank you." Kaylee quickly runs down the passage, as Borg closed off the entrance. They quickly got on two horses and ran quickly to the safe house in the woods.
"Your Grace! You both should also get to safety!" General number 1 returns.
"And why is that?" Zane asks.
"Because NercoCrypt retreated, it's now Djinnjago attacking." General number 1 exclaims.
"Those cowards!" Zane thunders. "Quick, Pixal dear, grab the emergency supplies, and meet me here." Pixal nods and runs off, grabbing the emergency bag filled with money and paper and ink.
"Alright, let's go." Zane quickly gets off the throne.
"I'll have my best men with you. First Spinjitzu Master, please save Mystique." General 1 returns to battle.
"Let's go your highnesses!" They all take the same way as Sir Borg and Princess Kaylee went, and also got horses, since the passage opened up to the stables. They also quickly ran off into the woods, evading capture.
"What do you mean Djinnjago's invading Mystique?" The king of Wintersong yells. Wintersong and Mystique were usually friends and got together quite frequently for trade issues.
"Sir, it was first NercoCrypt attacking, but then when Djinnjago showed up, they fled. Now the kingdoms under the control of the Djinn Prince Nadakhan and his wife, Delara. Next up it's going to be either Wintersong or NercoCrypt." The messenger cowers.
"What about the royal family?" The king asks.
"No one knows. Apparently, they fled right after Nadakhan showed up to the castle. It was a massacre. Just like the Crusades! Anyone out in the streets, slaughtered. I fear the worst for our trading friend." The messenger bows, and goes to the corner as a soldier from Mystique, as most people would know from the white, purple, and silver crest on the horse and the armor.
"Your Grace. I bring a message from the king of Mystique." He bows and holds up a scroll. Noble Lou takes it.
"Dear Ed and Edna, the king and queen of Wintersong. We are currently safe in a safe house, but we are only evading capture for another day, as Nadakhan's army sweeps through the forest during the day. I would like to request that we take shelter currently in your kingdom so that we can talk battle strategy and try to unite the 4 kingdoms since it is the only way we can defeat Djinnjago. Please reply by the second sun before they find our safe haven." He reads.
"Knight of Mystique. I accept the request, please get our friends to safety. Messenger Cliff and Gordon, please send this message to NercoCrypt and Vigilance."
"Djinnjago's attacking? Why should we care?" King Ray thunders as he was delivered the message from Wintersong during dinner.
"What's Djinnjago?" Lloyd asks, poking at his food.
"No need to worry dears, how about you finish dinner in your rooms huh?" 3 servants, per request of Queen Maya, quickly escort them to their rooms. "Ray, if it's really Djinnjago, then we should help them. End this war and needless suffering." Maya consoles.
"What happens in Mystique and Wintersong stays there. I will only accept their request if NercoCrypt does." Ray orders, shooing Messenger Gordon out.
"I know they'll accept. NercoCrypt always had a soft spot for Wintersong." Maya says.
"We will not accept! Did you see what happened out there? We were beaten by those men and women! They're just like the Gauls but even worse!" King Chen roars.
"But Your Grace! If we have both Vigilance and Mystique on our side, then that means that we have a better chance of winning the war against Djinnjago!" Counselor Clouse says.
"And Wintersong are our friends too." Queen Scarlet points out.
"Argh! Fine! We will help them. Send the message to them and ask them what we should do." King Chen hung his head in defeat. "I don't see any way we can trick our way out. Just like the Serpentine."
"Are we still talking about the Serpentine?" Noble Pythor asks.
"Not anymore." King Chen fumes.
"Ooh! What do you think the children will be like?" Jay asks Cole, eagerly waiting for the royal family of Mystique to come.
"For the last time Jay!" Cole huffs. "Right now, there was a coronation, since the king died unexpectedly. Now, the king's about 17 along with his fiance." Cole rolls his eyes.
"But there's still a girl around our age right?" Jay counters.
"13. Not 14. And mind your manners. Apparently, the princess acts like an adult." Cole snaps.
"I'm so excited! Look there they are!" Jay points to a gang of horse riding up to the castle. Once they stop, however, the king and queen jump off of their horses and greet the king and queen.
"Your majesty's." They both bow as the princess disembarks on her own horse and goes up to the two children.
"Hello." She puts out a hand.
"Good morrow Princess Kaylee." Cole shakes her hand.
"Great morrow Prince Cole," Kaylee replies.
"We are so honored to have you all here." Queen Edna exclaims.
"The pleasure is all ours, Your Grace." Queen Pixal bows.
"Please come in and wash up, NercoCrypt and Vigilance should arrive soon. Our maids can escort you to your quarters." The royal family of Mystique follows the maids into the castle.
"When are the other people going to arrive!" Jay whines.
"Patience, Jay. our guests won't be arriving until at least an hour later." King Ed replies.
"So we're supposed to wait here?" Cole says.
"Yes, because that is what we do as Wintersongians. We are the kind, Vigilance, the brave, NecroCrypt, the cunning, and Mystique, the intelligent." Queen Edna repeats.
"That is very well said, Your Majesty." Princess Kaylee, in a fresh new dress, walks out. "Is there anything we can use to invent something? Sir Borg wants to get working on the war weapons ready for our fight against Djinnjago. Zane and Pixal are coming down in a moment." Kaylee goes to stand by Mystiques soldiers, after relaying the message.
"Thank you, dear, I'll have that out in a jiff." King Ed replies, he swiftly nods to the servants as they quickly scurried away. After that, Queen Pixal and King Zane walks out and takes a stand next to Kaylee. Soon, a carriage starts arriving in the distance as the royal family of Vigilance arrives, closely followed by the royal family of NercoCrypt. Each kingdom greeted each other cordially, before walking inside the throne room, leaving the children to amuse themselves, of course, escorted to the courtyard.
"So you're an only child?" Lloyd asks Kaylee, the only person that was his age.
"No." Kaylee looks up from her book. "Zane is my biological elder brother, and Pixal is his betrothed, which makes her my sister-in-law. So, no. I am not an only child." She goes back to reading.
"Ugh, you Mystiques are no fun. Why can't you do something fun, besides... learning." Morro says, disgusted.
"I beg your pardon, but you must learn, to understand how to play games?" Kaylee says, flitting her eyes.
"She got you there bro." Skylor lightly punches a sputtering Morro.
"So, you guys invent right?" Nya asks. "What do you invent?"
"Well, our master inventor," Kaylee starts, but Kai snorts. "Is actually working on some war machines to aid us in battle." She glares at Kai.
"Oh! I always wished to try to invent something!" Jay gushes.
"Maybe later, if Sir Borg isn't busy, I can take some of you to his workshop?" Kaylee suggests and Nya and Jay quickly nod.
"So just you two. Okay then." She goes back to reading.
"So does anyone wanna play blind man's bluff?" Lloyd asks. There was a flurry of nods, with just one no from Kaylee, immersed in her book. They started playing until a maid called the children to dinner. They ate with gusto, after excusing themselves from the table, the children parted ways. Nya, Jay, and Kaylee to the workshop, and the rest to the living quarters.
"So this is where the magic happens," Kaylee says, as she opens the door.
"Wow." Nya and Jay smile at all of the clutter that was piled around. This, they felt, was home.
"So. Mr. Borg's currently out testing but I'd thought I'd show you around." Kaylee explains the trebuchets and catapults and moving towers which made Nya and Jay marvel at such a sight. Why couldn't they invent such wonders? Such imagination was beyond them.
"Can we invent something tomorrow?" Jay asks eagerly.
"Maybe, depends on Sir Borg's mood and time. He's a busy man and doesn't like to be bothered."
"Okay, then let's go to sleep!"
The 3 children return to their rooms to go to bed, but during the night, they were attacked.
"Your Majestys, you must go! Djinnjago's attacking!" Guards quickly ushered the children into an underground secret area, then left to fight.
"Keep fighting! Don't give up!" Ray yells to his soldiers, who we pushing the Djinn Army back.
"We need to keep tactical positions! Each time a soldier falls, someone on the ground will take their place!" Zane orders.
"Go, go, go!" Chen yells to his army, who quickly started to shoot arrows out into the crowd.
"Trebuchets, on my mark!" Sir Borg yells. "Fire!" Lines of rock are flung up into the sky, landing on several important parts of their army.
"We need to run over their army now. Open the gates!" Zane yells, as thousands of cavalry soldiers, on foot and horse charge out into the open field on Djinnjago's confused army. They defeated them quickly, and took back all of the cities they conquered, also taking Nadakhan prisoner. When the dust settled though, each kingdom with their royal family went out into the battlefield, to mark a new start of the 4 kingdoms.
"On this day we 4 kingdoms declare the war finished, and instead of joining arms with each other to form a new country, Ninjago. Never again will we fight again, because, with the added might of each other, we will succeed!" Zane declares, and all the kings signed the paper. And that, my friends, is how the country of Ninjago was created. Pretty cool right?
