Can Of Worms
"Psst. Kaylee. Wake up!" Lloyd whispers and I jump up and hit my head against the bunk.
"You scared me, Lloyd!" I moan and Lloyd looks at me with a sheepish expression.
"Sorry, but Sensei asked me to pull some pranks on the ninja to teach the destroyment power of rumors," Lloyd says and I raise an eyebrow.
"You mean the destructive power of rumors? But that's not in Sensei's lesson book." I jump out of bed, clad in shorts and a t-shirt.
"Well, I may have turned the odds in our favor." Lloyd smiles mischievously as he pulls out Sensei's lesson book.
"Cool! But I don't know how to prank people." I avert my eyes from Lloyds gaze to the floor.
"Then I'll teach you!" He pulls me out of the room and into the living room. When I see that Nya was still in bed so I checked and the time was... 5:00! How does he and Sensei wake up that early! "First thing, is that you need to make it believable! If the victim detects your lying, then the pranks over!" Lloyd opens a game and goes to Fist To Face 2. That's Kai's game!
"Okay. what's the plan?" I ask as Lloyd easily starts beating every single high score that Kai has and framed it on Cole.
"So, we're going to tell Kai that Cole beat his high scores, then tell Cole that Jay spiced up his soup, tell Jay that Zane messed with his sparring bot, ad finally end with telling Zane that Kai put his ninja gi into his whites." He finished the game then shut it off, moving to the kitchen where Cole's simmering pot of soup sat. He took some spices, the handed it to me, gesturing to the pot. I nod and start adding random spices.
"What now?" I ask, scrambling out with Lloyd as he started to tinker with the robot.
"Can put one of Kai's gi's in Zane's whites? Just make sure the gi's pink." He hands me some detergent and Kai's ninja gi. I nod and then run toward the laundry room. Where Zane's whites are already in a bucket. I put in Kai's ninja gi and then start doing the laundry for Zane. When I'm done, all of Zane's gi's are pink. I meet up with Lloyd in the middle of the hallway, each bidding our goodbyes, and retiring to our rooms. I quickly make my bed and start my morning routine. In which brushing my teeth and hair in that case. Also washing my face. I gather my hair into 2 braided pigtails. (Just imagine them any way you'd like.) I quickly Spinjitzu'd in my clothes and sneakers. (Like this, and yeah, she knows Spinjitzu)
I walk out of the room and go to the bridge, where Sensei Wu was waiting for me. Oh boy, I was hoping he'd forgot about extra training.
"Good. You came. As the Silver Ninja, you must be able to take flight when others can not and aid people in battle. To master the ancient art of flying with your powers, you must first know, what you want deep within yourself. Dodge!" Wu turned around and threw a spear right at me. I jump up and try to take flight but I just fall to the ground, earning a sigh from Master Wu.
"This is practically impossible! They only way I could probably do it is if I'm pushed off from an impossible height or something like that!" I grumble and get up, kicking the floor.
"Then why don't we do just that?" Master Wu took my hand and turned around to go outside, and with not so much as a ready, he threw me off the Destiny's Bounty. I hurtled towards the water, screaming as I tried to get the feeling I had while in flight. I summoned most existing power to my hands and pushed up. I guess that's how I learn then. I went around, and flew around for a while, just to get the feeling for it.
"Left means go left, right means go right, up means up, down means down, forward and back means, forward and back!" I repeat over and over again until it felt like I was doing this since forever. I landed down, smiling as Master Wu nods.
"Good. Practice more, but pushing up from solid ground. You may go. I need to find my lesson book. I seem to have misplaced it." Wu walks away and I summon power to my hands and push up. I fly up, but then lose control, and go careening toward the mast, where I collide with it. I groan and slide down to the ground.
"Yeah, just don't mind me. I can do it." I push myself up, but fall down again. "Yeah, I'm not ready." I walk toward the bridge, again praying I didn't find Master Wu there. I try to fly again, but I could not get the energy to push off the ground. I open the door and see Nya, who starts hiding away gear.
"Oh hey, guys, oh, it's just you Kaylee." Nya sighs and turns around again. "You took quite a hit there. You okay?"
"Better than ever." I jump on the table and sit down. We both pour over the materials for the Samurai X suit, making parts of it, connecting, all of that sort. When we finished, we then start goofing around, as I tried to fly around and Nya trying to test out her Samurai suit. I guess, not much goofing around but still. I managed to get it every once in a while, but only one time I was able to control it for more than a minute. After that, we both started to figure out the locations of the 'Venomari and Constrictai tombs. We then found out that each of the tombs matches up with Ninjago's symbol for serpent. We located the tombs, then decided to call for the guys.
"If you're done fooling around, I could use you guys on the bridge. We do still have a snake problem to attend to. Over and out!" Nya spoke in the microphone, and then we listened to Kai complaints.
"It's one thing to let the son of your nemesis live with you. But having my sister and Kaylee here? I mean, come on! I thought this was a ninja headquarters."
"You do know I can hear you. . ." Nya starts.
"Also, I'm also a ninja if you hadn't noticed. Over and out!" I interject.
"Last we heard of Pythor, he stole the Map of Dens from Lloyd and Kaylee and is now on his way to open the last two Serpentine tombs."
"Ugh, don't remind me." Lloyd moans, and I walk over to him and rub his back in a comforting manner.
"Pythor's our most dangerous threat. If he finds those tombs before we do, with his intellect and all four tribes unleashed, there's no telling what he'll do." Wu points his staff at all of us.
"But those tombs could be anywhere. Without the map, we might as well just throw darts at a map." Jay points out.
"Good idea. Why don't we? These are the two locations of the Hypnobrai and Fangpyre tombs." Nya throws two darts at the map. "And this is Pythor's tomb. After many hours of ruminating on why the tombs were placed in these three precise locations, me and Kaylee discovered a secret pattern. If you notice, all three are in line with the Ninjago symbol for serpent."
"So the last two tombs must be here and here. Ah, you are so smart." Jay dreamily sighs, looking at Nya. He must really love her.
"Ah, was there ever any doubt?" Nya asks jokingly.
"There's little time. Kai and Jay, you head to the Venomari Tomb. Cole and Zane, you take the Constrictai Tomb. And take this." Sensei Wu hands them the Sacred Flute. "You might need it if you run into Pythor. Good luck, Ninja."
"What am I gonna do? I'm a ninja too." I ask.
"Yeah, what are we gonna do?" Lloyd asks.
"Nya, I need you here to make sure Lloyd and Kaylee doesn't get into any more trouble."
"Yes, Sensei." Nya sighs.
"Let's go, boys. We got some snakes to club." Cole yells and the 4 run out.
"Well, at least you can teach us how to fly the Bounty!" I cheerfully say, then turn to Lloyd, "Lloyd, you coming with us?" I ask and he shakes his head.
"No thanks, I'm going to read some comics. Thanks though, bye!" We share an embrace then depart.
"Well, let's steer this girl!" Nya pulled me to the steering wheel and taught me how to fly the Bounty. Soon, Nya was going to make her first cameo as Samurai X. Pretty cool right? She flies out, leaving me to man the Bounty. I make my way towards the Toxic Bogs when Nya suddenly comes back. I then shine a light on the boys, all passed out. I grin, then high-five Nya.
We were all at the dinner table. I sat next to Lloyd, where we both talked about our day happily. I forgot I had to ask Sensei if me and Lloyd met before in the past.
"So then, just when we were gonna bite it, this huge mechanical robot—" Jay mimed the Samurai with his hands.
"Samurai. It was Samurai." Zane spoke.
"A Sama-what?" Lloyd chose that moment to ask what a Samurai was.
"Samurai. Highest level of warrior class. They would protect nobility and serve with honor on the battlefield." Wu spoke. If Samurai were the highest level of class, what level were ninja?
"He was a hundred feet high, with weapons coming out every part of him." Kai described the Samurai weirdly, then whisper-yelled to Cole. "Look at Sensei's beard. It's moving like snakes."
"When is this Venomari spit supposed to wear off? It's starting to get annoying." Nya exclaimed dryly as Kai slapped a dumpling on him. It slid off, leaving all of us staring at him in confusion.
"Okay, don't let this mysterious Samurai cloud what's really important. All the Serpentine are out, and if Pythor can unite them, the legend states some Great Devourer is gonna consume the land and—" Cole starts and I decide to make my appearance in the conversation.
"Great Devourer?" I ask.
"Whatever it is, it's a can of worms I don't wanna see open." Cole shakes his head.
"Unh, it's all my fault. If I hadn't opened the first hatch, none of this would've happened." Lloyd puts his head in his arms, and I move over to hug him.
"Hey, it wasn't all your fault," I whisper, patting his back in a comforting manner.
"We cannot change the past, but we can affect the future. At least we have the Sacred Flute in our possession, so—" Wu expectantly turned to Zane, looking for the flute.
"Yeah, ahem. About that..." Jay fiddles with his cup then knocks it over. Uh-oh.
"Pythor sort of stole it." Zane nervously said.
"The last Sacred Flute gone? You four are Ninjago's last hope." Wu sighs. The alarms start sounding, and we all run to the bridge. I look down, on the Bounty, and my fear of heights began coming back towards me. I quickly look away and follow the Ninja, Lloyd, Nya and Sensei Wu in the bridge.
"Cold vision must have caught something. That means the Serpentine is near." Nya types on the computer, bringing up a hologram of Ninjago City, and what looks like to be a massive snake gathering right smack in the middle of the City.
"Oh, no! Ninjago City?" Cole exclaimed.
"How many are there?" Jay asks.
"Looks like all of them," Kai spoke, studying the screen carefully. I guess the Venomari spit wore off.
"Pythor must be trying to unite them," Zane concludes.
"Go. We mustn't let the five tribes unite!" Wu commands as the ninja hurry out, not before saying "Ninja, go!"
Me and Lloyd were in the laundry room, cleaning Zane's suit while planning another prank on Cole. As we heard the ninja in the dining room, I held the laundry, and Lloyd held the can of nuts. We both walked into the room.
"Well, it took us twenty loads, but your suit's no longer pink," I say, setting the suit on the table.
"To show that I'm sorry, Cole, I got you a can of nuts." Lloyd hands Cole a can of nuts, who hesitantly takes it.
"Uh, haha, yeah. Don't think I don't see what this is. When I open this, a bunch of snakes are gonna pop out, right? Yeah, no thank you." Cole walks over to the fridge, opening it, but a bunch of rubber snakes jump out at him. This prank worked perfectly! I high-five Lloyd and everyone starts laughing, even Cole.
