A Line in the Sand
(A/N: I haven't updated this since January... I am so sorry. Regular updates can be expected on Thursday PST from now on.)
Kaylee and Jay race to Ed and Edna's scrapyard, landing very dangerously in the sand.
"Take your fangs off my parents, you darn dirty snakes!" Jay yells, blasting a few of the snake warriors. "Mom! Dad! Are you okay?"
"Oh, well, I'm now very late for my quilting circle," Edna says remorsefully.
"I think a quilting circle is the least bit of your worries, Mrs. Walker," Kaylee says, using her powers to fling the snakes around.
"The Ninja mustn't interfere. Get over there and take them down." Blunck, one of the commander's orders.
"Whoa, whoa!" Ed yells as the snakes began walking towards him, but Jay saves him. "Oh, Jay, what's happening? These fellas came out of nowhere and started grabbing things."
"Yeah, they do that," Jay says.
"Oh! Now that's rude!" Edna yells as a Warrior tries to take her broom.
"Uh, Jay, maybe a little help?" Kaylee asks. "I'm doing all of the work here!"
"Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you," Jay says, completely ignoring Kaylee. "I'm gonna get you both out of here on my bike." Jay sees his bike was taken apart. "Argh!"
"This is why you fly. You don't need stupid cars that can get taken apart." Kaylee mutters.
"Message received, Commander Machia. Vermillion Warriors, we're leaving. Take the builder, now." Blunck orders.
"Vermillion Warriors? Really? That's what they're calling-" Jay starts, but then turns around. "Hey!"
"Let go of me! Watch it!" Ed says as Jay saves him from being kidnapped.
"Take her, she may be a builder also." Blunck orders, as one of the cranes from the Vermillion Warriors battle things, grabbed poor Mrs. Walker and drove away.
"Hey, hey, hey get back here!" Kaylee yells, jumping, and blasting away the other Vermillion.
"Wait, wait! I don't like to go anywhere without my purse! Aah!" Edna yells as the car speeds up.
"Edna!" Ed yells.
"Put me down! Aah! Help!" Edna shrieks.
"Mom! Hang on, I'm coming!" Jay yells.
"This is why you fly Jay! Fly!" Kaylee yells, running and jumping up. "Airjitzu!"
"It's not supposed to let me fly! That's the dragon!" Jay shrieks.
"There's meatloaf in the freezer, honey!" Edna yells.

The Vermillion and Ninja made it to the Sea of Sand.
"Lovely morning for a ride in the desert." Blunck says, as their metal vehicles line up with the other Vermillion caption's vehicles, blasting sand behind Kaylee.
"Can you stop? I seriously am spitting out- Mmph!" Kaylee yells, before receiving a mouthful of sand.
"Ooh, Kaylee are you okay?" Edna questions.
"It's too blasted hot!" Raggmunk complains.
"Yes, but it's a dry heat," Blunck replies.
"You see, this is why I wanted my purse. I keep a bottle of water in it. Hydration is important!" Edna yells.
"I don't see the Time Blade, but- They have Jay's mom!" Cole says, pointing at the claw that held Mrs. Walker.
"That must be why Jay and Kaylee left so suddenly. But, where are they?" Nya questions.
"We have to worry about that later. There's still a chance to get to the Time Blade first. Split up!" Lloyd yells, and everyone splits up.
"Oh hey Nya," Kaylee says, flying back to meet Nya.
"There you are, Kaylee! Where's Jay?" Nya questions.
"I dunno. He can't fly." Kaylee says, before coughing. "What's going on?"
"Time Blade. It's supposed to reach us anytime." Nya replies.
"On it." Kaylee nods, flying up.
"Come on, come on!" Cole mutters, and the Time Blade flies from above, and lands in the Sea of Sand, slowing down everyone. "Aah! Yes!"
"We're approaching the Time Blade!" Zane says as he and Nya fly in the bubble caused by the Time Blade.
"Incoming!" Nya yells as they crash, and everything speeds back to normal.
"Oh, Nya! So nice to see you, dearie." Edna smiles.
"Ninja, I have just the thing for you! Snakey-snake-snake!" Raggmuck throws snakes at them and they crash, due to the snakes disabling the vehicles. "The Time Blade, yes! Come to Raggmunk."
Blunck growls. "Hey! Why should you get the credit? Mine!"
"The Time Blade! No!" Lloyd yells.
"Yes! I got it! Oh, it feels better than I could ever have imagined." Raggmunk cheers, grabbing the Time Blade.
"Oh, can I hold it? Let me hold it!" Blunck asks, jumping up and down like a child, as Raggmunk kept the Blade away from him.
"What's the rush, little fools?" The Ninja dodges the Time Blade and he instead slowed down one of his own vehicles.
"Nice shot." Blunck snorts.
"It's my first time!" Raggmunk snaps.
"Yes! We still have a chance! Move, move, move!" Lloyd orders.
Kaylee flies up in the sky, as the other ninja run to the Vermillion Warriors on the ground.
"Let me show you how it's done!" Blunck snaps, taking the Blade from Raggmunk.
"Ninja-" Blunck hits them, slowing them down. "Go!"
"Lucky shot. Tear them apart." Raggmunk scoffs.
"What the hell?" Kaylee questions, before flying in the blue bubble, and also slowing down. "Well, shit."
"Oh, no!" Lloyd says.
"We're doomed!" Kai yells, but the bubble bursts and they are freed.
"Huh?" Blunck questions, looking at the Blade.
"I hope you brought water!" Edna yells.
"Water won't help him." Blunck snaps, raising his hand with the Time Blade above him.
"What are you doing? You're also gonna slow all of us!" Raggmunk yells.
"Exactly." Blunck plunges the blade into the ground, as a larger blue bubble sprouts out of it. The Vermillion and Ninja are slowed down.
"What is that?" Jay asks, as he and Mr. Walker drive into it and crashed into a rock when they got out.
"Jay!" Cole yells.
Edna gasps. "Son!"
"Lightning speed!" Jay grabs his mother and knocks the Blade out, making them go back to normal speed.
"Way to go, Jay!" Nya cheers.
"Talk about making a comeback!" Kai smiles.
Jay zooms away, unable to slow down his bike. "SORRY, I LEFT YOU BEFORE, CAN'T STOP! PLEASE HELP MY DAD AND GET THE BLADE! SEE YOU BACK AT THE TEMPLE!"
Kai takes the Blade. "Looking for this? Catch!"
Zane catches it, raising it above the snakes. "Whoops!"
"Over here!" Nya taunts, catching the Time Blade that Zane threw, and then to Cole.
"Haha! Close!" Cole laughs, before throwing it to Kai.
"Nope!" Kai yells, tossing it to Kaylee.
"Almost!" Kaylee snickers, before tossing it to Zane.
"Guys, quit messing around! We got the Blade! Let's get out of here!" Lloyd orders.
"Remember how I said I like the way Lloyd is taking charge?" Kai sighs.
"Yeah." Nya nods.
"No." Kaylee shakes her head.
"I take it back." Kai sighs, running towards Lloyd.
"After them! Go, go, go! Get the Time Blade!" Blunck orders.
Kai almost trips on a Vermillion's helmet. "There's that symbol again!" Kai takes the helmet.
"Hurry up Flame boy!" Kaylee yells, grabbing Kai's hand and running.
"Go, go, go, go, go, go, go! We're not gonna make it! We don't have enough time!" Nya gasps, seeing the Vermillion getting into their vehicles
"Yes we do. Everyone, behind me! We have all the time we need!" Lloyd uses the Blade on the Vermillion.
"No!" Raggmunk yells.
"Come on, Mr. Walker. That time bubble won't last long!" Lloyd says.
"Will it last long enough for us to get these heaps in the shop for repairs?" Ed questions, pointing at the mess that was the Ninja's vehicles that were still smoking.
"Probably not." Cole shakes his head.
"The Supersonic Raider Jet!" Kaylee points at a not damaged jet, and the gang runs toward it.
"The only damage to the jet is the port wing, which I can stabilize," Zane informs, after scanning it.
"Everybody else in!" Lloyd yells, pushing up the seat, and letting everyone in.
"I can fly? You guys have dragons?" Kaylee comments. "It doesn't have to be that stuffed."
Her comments fell on deaf ears. Guess you really can't think straight when you're trying to get away from snakes.
"No, no, no! Pull up, pull up! Pull up, pull up! You call this stabilizing?" Cole accuses.
"I'm trying!" Zane yells, laying flat on the wing.
"Try harder!" Cole snaps.
"We did it! We got the Time Blade! We finally caught a break!" Lloyd cheers.
"Nice work, Lloyd." Kaylee smiles at Lloyd from outside the jet.
"Did you guys see Jay take off on that bike? He was like greased lightning!" Nya laughs, before seeing everyone look at her. "What? He had grease on his face. And he's the Lightning Ninja. Aw, come on! You would have laughed if Jay said it."
"No, no, we wouldn't." Kai shakes his head.
"We really wouldn't" Kaylee adds on.
"I, uh, I thought it was funny, Nya," Ed says nervously.
"Thank you, Mr. Walker," Nya says happily.
