Before we start, I wanted to say thank you for all your support! We got 1000 reads! Thank you to all of you people out there who read this story! Anyways no we're on season 5, the Winds of Change.
(At the endless sea)
(The ninja fly by on their elemental dragon looking for a mutant Fangfish)
Lloyd: (Laughs) Getting ahead of yourself, Kai? Heh. I'm leading this charge. (Charges at Kai.)
Crystal: Yea, let him lead Kai.
Kai: Aah! (Splashed with water)
Jay: (Laughs) That's one way to cool off a hothead.
Kai: Hey, no one messes up my hair! (Flies and splashes water)
Lloyd: Uh.
Zane: (Spits and coughs up water)
Cole: (Laughs) You okay there, Zane?
Zane: Affirmative. It'll take more than a little water to take me out.
Jay: Oh, what about a big fish?
Styx: Incoming!
Zane: Oh, no! (Screams)
Cole: There he blows!
Pixal: Based on its weight and size, this is the mutant Fangfish terrorizing the coastal village and depleting their food source.
Zane: P.I.X.A.L. says this is the one.
Lloyd: And now that he's taken the bait, let's reel him in and get him to the aquarium.
Jay: Let me guess, Kai. You caught one that big once?
Kai: Heck no. He was twice the size. (Fangfish lunges at him) Whoa!
Crystal: Sure Kai, sure.
Jay: He's almost as hungry as you, Cole.
Cole: And twice as ugly as you, Jay.
(Everyone but Jay, Crystal, and Lloyd laughs)
Lloyd: It's time for the catch of the day. In line formation!
Cole: It's right behind us.
Lloyd: Now!
(Everyone splits up, making the fish land in a boat. Sailor groans. The ninja cheer.)
Jay: Now that's what I call hook, line, and stinker. (Laughs)
(At the docks, two people grab fishing poles.)
Kai: Looks like we made this place safe to fish again.
Crystal: If your father was still here, he's tell you he's proud.
Kai: You've become a great leader, Lloyd.
Lloyd: No, we're a great team. Can't say I don't miss him.
Cole: It's working!
(The fish is put into a tank, splashing water on everyone. The ninja scream.)
Lloyd: With my dad gone, sometimes I question where I'm going. Sometimes I worry about who I might become.
Kai: I know how that feels. After I lost dad, I lost my way. But I was lucky to have my sister watch over me.
Crystal: And I had Styx when I didn't have my parents.
Kai: Don't worry, big shot. (He playfully gives him a noogie.) we'll watch over you from now on.
Crystal: Yea, like the big sister and brother you never had.
Lloyd: (Laughs and playfully mocks Kai) Hey, no one messes up my hair.
Jay: Hey, you three gonna get in the picture? No one's gonna believe this. This is awesome!
Zane: Back. Back just a little further. Just a little further.
Photographer: (Snaps a photo before falling in the ocean, then screams) Hehe, you guys!
Styx: Good to see your sense of humor hasn't changed.
Jay: Oh, great! Who's gonna believe us now?
(Fangfish splashes water on the ninja again. The ninja scream again.)
(At Steep Wisdom)
Wu: Hmm, "Steep Wisdom." Not a bad name for a tea shop. (Chuckles)
Nya: I thought saving Ninjago was difficult. Try starting a small business!
Nya: I thought saving Ninjago was difficult. Try starting a small business!
Misako: Wu can't be a Sensei forever. It's about time we all help out with his retirement. Speaking of which, Nya?
Nya: Oh, here, let me give you a hand with that. (She tries to take the bucket from Wu, but he juggles it to his other hand.)
Wu: I am old, not weak.
Misako: You look after ninja, I look after you.
Nya: Well, Steep Wisdom is staring to look like a real tea house, except for one thing: customers.
Wu: Good things come to those who wait.
(The ninja arrive and land their Dragons outside.)
Kai: I'm just saying, it was big but, I've seen bigger.
Jay: As big as your ego?
Styx: Ooh! He got you there Kai.
(The ninja laugh)
Wu: Oh, who am I kidding? I'm tired of waiting. I'll put the ninja to work. (He picks up a box.) Ninja, you need to find customers.
Jay: No "hello, how's it going, glad to hear you saved the day ..." again?
Cole: Yeah, Sensei. We're all a bit tired. You mind if we handle this tomorrow?
Wu: We all have a share if this business succeeds. How else do you expect me to be able to afford all your new uniforms? (He puts down the box and opens it.) Which reminds me, your new ones arrived.
Kai: What do they look like now?
Zane: New suits?
Jay: Sweet!
Cole: I bet they're off the hook.
All: (Sees outfits, but they are shirts with the Steep Wisdom logo) Huh?
Zane: Those do not appear to be ninja uniforms. They resemble work attire.
Wu: Very observant, Zane. We must focus on furthering brand awareness. And here are the fliers I want each of you to pass out in the city.
Jay: Ugh, If I have to pass all these out, I may be the one passed out!
Cole: Wait, why is there only 5 suits?
Wu: Because I only need you to go, Crystal will stay to help Nya.
Jay: Oh come on! Why does she get to stay?
(Phone rings.)
Misako: Oh, that could be our first order! Shh! (She picks up the phone.) Steep Wisdom, how may we serve you?
Kai: Aren't we going to look kind of dorky flying up on our Power Dragons with these things on?
Misako: (In the background) Yes, I see; and you need him right away?
Wu: You won't be flying on anything. We're selling tea, not magic. Besides, you all have been relying a little too heavily on your elemental powers lately. Real powers come from the inside.
Lloyd: It would be our honor, Sensei.
Misako: Thank you. I'll let him know right away. (Puts down phone)
Crystal: Is it a big order?
Misako: It's the police. They've asked for Lloyd. There's been a break-in at the museum.
(Everyone but Wu and Misako gasp)
Cole: Go on, I'll take your share.
Lloyd: Thanks. I owe you one.
Misako: Aren't you going to kiss your mother goodbye? (Crystal giggles)
Lloyd: Mom, we've...we've talked about this. I'll catch you on the way back.
(Everyone laughs.)
Wu: Remember, no powers.
(The ninja groan and leave to Ninjago city, while Crystal is helping Nya with the tea boxes.)
Nya: How heavy are these boxes!?
Crystal: Ugh, I don't know. Maybe a ton.
Nya: Or a million tons. (The girls laugh and put the tea boxes down.) Speaking of which I heard you were working on a new song.
Crystal: Yea, I got the melody down,
Nya: I'm sensing a but.
Crystal: Heh yea, but I think the words are kinda sloppy.
Nya: Could I hear it?
Crystal: I don't know, I only got the chorus down and one verse, not the second though.
Nya: That doesn't matter to me. Please!
Crystal: Ok, ok. (She gets her guitar out) Ok so let's see here.
(She starts playing her guitar and starts to sing)
Turn your face towards the sun
Let the shadows fall behind you
Don't look back, just carry on
And the shadows will never find you
Turn your face towards the sun
Let the shadows fall behind you
Don't look back, just carry on
And the shadows will never find you
Lost in a rocky road
Got lost in the promise of a love I never know
Shadows chase me far from home
I remember when my heart was filled with gold
And you knew I've been burned, I've been burned, I've been burned
You see me lose control
It's not worth, it's not worth, it's not worth
My soul
Turn your face towards the sun
Let the shadows fall behind you
Don't look back, just carry on
And the shadows will never find you
(Once Crystal was done Nya started to clap)
Nya: That was beautiful!
Crystal: Thanks!
(They talk and wait around a little more for customers)
Crystal: I knew they wouldn't do good, but I at least thought they would get one or two customers.
Nya: I know! Where are the customers that the boys were supposed to bring? (Misako walks out from the kitchen)
Misako: They must be trying their hardest.
Styx: Maybe, or they're goofing off. (Nya and Crystal laugh at his joke. Then a woman and a girl walk through the door.)
Crystal: Yay, customers.
Misako: Welcome to steep wisdom, how may we serve you?
Woman: Can I get earl grey tea leaves and white tea leaves?
Misako: Of course. (She goes in the kitchen and comes back with the tea leaves. Then the ninja come barging through the door like mad people.)
Zane: Sensei!
Jay: It's an emergency!
Kai: We need you!
Cole: It's important!
Misako: Boys, not so loud. Can't you see we have our first customer?
Daughter: Wow, the real ninja! Oh, can you shock me?
Jay: Uh...not now, kid. Maybe later, okay? (Whispering to Misako) Where's Wu?
Crystal: What's going on?
Kai: Sensei!
Wu: Yes?
Kai: We were getting the word out...
Cole: ...and there was this wind...
Zane: ...and our powers disappeared.
Wu: (Enraged) You were using your powers?
Jay: Yeah, I know. We're terrible students, but what happened to our powers?!
Cole: Hey Crystal can you use your powers?
(I make a ball of light in my hands)
Crystal: Yea, but it takes more effort.
(Wind blows)
Wu: If your powers are gone and Crystal's powers have turned weaker, then something must have happened to...
("Lloyd" approaches the shop.)
Daughter: It's Lloyd!
(Then Crystal leans on the table because of a headache)
Crystal: Not again. (The other 4 ninja go outside the shop)
Wu: I know that wind...That's not Lloyd.
Crystal: Ugh, what do you mean that's not Lloyd?
Morro: Step aside.
Jay: Lloyd! What's wrong with you?
Morro: I want a word with your master.
Cole: What's gotten into him?
Zane: I sense some kind of foreign entity has taken over his body. So the question isn't what, but who's gotten into him?
Kai: Whoever you are, whatever beef you had with Sensei, you have with us. Give us back our friend!
(Morro just cracks his neck and laughs)
Cole: How are we supposed to fight a friend?
Morro: Let me show you! (His skin turns green, his hair turns black and he attacks the ninja, laughing.)
Jay: Great, we don't have powers, but he does? Crystal we could use your help right about now!
(Everyone charges at him, but he easily fends them off.)
Cole: We may not have powers, but we still know a little thing called Spinjitzu! Ninja, go! Whoa! Ugh.
Jay: So not only does he have powers, but he can control the wind, too?
Wu: Take the truck! Get them out of here now! Nya, we need to leave too.
Nya: But this is our place. Tell me, Sensei. What's happened to Lloyd?
Crystal: Yea.
Wu: There's no time.
Jay: Ninja, Go! Aaaahhh! Whoa.
Kai: Our Spinjitzu is worthless against the wind.
Morro: Shurikens? Cute. Try this on for size! (Breaks off the propellers of a windmill)
Kai: Ugh.
Daughter: Get up. Please. Ninja never quit.
(Kai gets up, but Misako evacuates with the daughter and her mom. The ninja scream as they are tossed around. Morro enters the shop to see Crystal and Nya at the desk.)
Nya: Get out!
Morro: Go stock some shelves before you get hurt.
Nya: I'll take you on anytime. (He knocks Nya off her feet)
Crystal: Hey! No one does that to my best friend! And no one possesses my little brother! (She gets her swords out and charges after him)
Morro: So you're the light ninja of the realm?
Crystal: Yea, and you messed with the wrong ninja!
(They keep fighting and Nya joins the fight too.)
Wu: Stay back, Crystal, Nya. It's me he wants.
Morro: Not you. Just your father's staff.
Wu: I see you've found the Allied Armor, Morro, yet you haven't summoned your friends.
Morro: Your 4 pathetic students haven't given me a reason to.
(The ninja pant and groan as they are defeated.)
Jay: Hey, hey, hey! No one calls me pathetic!
Wu: You want the staff? Try to take it.
Morro: (Grunts) You've gotten old. You used to be a great Sensei. Now you're just a petty shopkeeper.
Wu: With age comes wisdom. (Gasps) A secret message engraved on the staff.
Morro: The staff of the First Spinjitzu Master. (He uses wind to grab the staff, but Nya knocks him down with a shelf.)
Crystal: Great going Nya!
Nya: Thanks, I do more than stock shelves.
Wu: (Catches his staff) Yes. Now we leave.
Nya: To the barn!
Kai: I am not running away from Lloyd!
Wu: We will not win this fight today.
(The ninja leave to the bounty but Crystal stay's put with Kai)
Morro: Give me the staff!
Jay: Oh, are they crazy?
Morro: Foolish ninja. Why would you try to take me on all by yourselves?
Kai: Because we promised to look after Lloyd.
Crystal: And we won't break our promise! (They start to fight)
Nya: Where's my brother, and where's Crystal?
Jay: They're fighting the Green Ninja.
Jay, Cole, and Zane: Alone.
Kai: I know you're in there, Lloyd. Fight him! (He grabs hold of Morro while Crystal points her swords at him.)
Nya: We gotta do something.
Morro: The staff is getting away. Let go of me!
Kai: (Grunts) Only when you let go of Lloyd!
Lloyd: (Breaks free of Morro's possession) Kai, Crystal...
Kai: Huh?
Lloyd: Help me...
Kai: Lloyd?
Crystal: Is that you? (The Bounty's anchor latches onto Kai leaving Crystal. Lloyd is left there coughing weakly as Kai has been taken away.)
Kai: Wait, let me go!
Cole: A perfect wedgie!
Kai: I saw Lloyd! (Morro regains his possession.) Put me down! Let me go! Crystal is still down there!
Jay: He's right, what do we do?
(Nya goes on a communication device to talk with Crystal)
Nya: Crystal are you there?!
Crystal: I'm here.
Morro: You won't get away that easy. (He uses Wind to pull the Bounty back.)
Crystal: Get out of here!
Cole: And leave you are you crazy!
Crystal: I know what I'm doing, just go!
Nya: Ok!
Kai: We have to go back.
Nya: Sorry, brother. That's what I'm trying to avoid.
Nya: I've got it! (She pulls a lever, making the Bounty fly faster.)
Morro: NOOOOOOO!
Nya: Whew, that was close. The coast is clear.
Zane: But what about Crystal?
(Crystal tries summoning her dragon and succeeds)
Crystal: On my way! (She makes it to the bounty) That was a close one!
Kai: You're telling me.
Jay: Now spill it, Sensei. What just happened back there, and what have they done to my friend?
Cole: Yeah, Sensei. Who was that?
Wu: (Sighs) You five were not my first pupils. There was one before you.
Kai: Huh?
Cole: What?
Wu: Morro, the Master of Wind.
Nya: Okay, now those lights scare me. We got something on our six. Looks like your Master of Wind just caught his second wind.
Morro: Two can play at this game!
(Morro summons his elemental dragon and plunges at the Bounty)
