I pace around the deck why is it I'm always the one waiting for the ninja.
A fit of laughter can be heard as they all join me waiting for Sensei.
"Hehe. Little slow today, huh? What exactly did you dream about?" Kai marvels
"I saw the Falcon again." Zane answers
This receives my attention.
"Whoa. Zane, every time you see that bird, something big happens. First, it leads you and Y/n to the secret treehouse." Jay reacted
"Then it leads you to the Bounty." Cole finished
"All right. Stretches. First, the Swooping Crane." Sensei Wu proclaims onto the deck facing away from us to demonstrate the stretch.
"This time, it showed me the Green Ninja," Zane whispered
"The Green Ninja?" All four of us yell screwing up the pose
"That looks like the Shocked Monkey. Bad form, more focus." Sensei snaps me out of my shock
I slowly obtain the accurate form.
"You can't just drop a bomb like that. Spill the beans." Jay murmured
"Yeah, what else did you see?" Kai muttered
"He was fighting Lord Garmadon." Zane breathed out
"That's what the prophecy said. That the Green Ninja would defeat the Dark Lord." I join in the discussion keeping my voice low.
"But did you have a chance to see which one of us was him?" Kai begged
"Yeah." Jay added in a hushed voice
"Did you see?" Cole asked whispering
"I could not tell. He shared attributes each of us possess." Zane replied back whispering
"Now, Pinching Crab." Sensei declared changing poses
We all alter poses and I face Sensei along with Cole, Jay, and Zane
"Well, tell us everything. And don't spare any details. There has to be a clue that tells us which one of us is gonna be the Green Nin—" Kai was interrupted by Sensei Wu pulling his hair.
"Ow, ow, ow! Hey!" Kai whines rubbing the hair
I exit out of my pose along with the others
"What was so important to ignore my teachings?" Sensei Wu concerns
"Uh, nothing." Kai retorted
"It was nothing, Sensei." Jay responded
"Yeah, we don't talk while you teach." Cole announced
"Everyone was paying attention." Zane added
"No one is ignoring you Sensei." I smile trying to convince him
"Since you all appear to be lacking in focus, then you can all share in the punishment." Sensei remarked
"What?" Kai says
"Punishment?" Jay implores
"It should be Kai he was talking the most." I commented
"No no It was all Zane." Cole asserted
"I was merely answering their questions." Zane defended
"No free time and no video games. The rest of the day can be used for training. And tomorrow, for that matter." Sensei asserted
"Training? For how long?" Kai interrogates
"Until you can answer this simple riddle: what is the best way to defeat an enemy?" Sensei asks
"Easy, with a sword." Kai replied
"Your fists." Jay noted
"Spinjitzu." Cole stated
"Tornado of Creation?" Zane tells unsure
"Your mind." I put in
Sensei Wu sighs "Pace yourselves. You have a lot of training ahead of you. Make sure you sharpen your mind as well as your Spinjitzu." He walks away
"Ugh. What's the best way to defeat an enemy? It could be anything, ugh!" Cole groaned
"Guys it's something heart warming like becoming friends and living happily ever after." I answer
"That cannot be the answer. Come on, guys, we're smart. We can figure this out." Jay answered back
Kai punches a punching bag "Yeah, but let's hear more about this dream."
"Let me just say, the Green Ninja is awesome." Zane clarified as we all gathered around him.
*5 minutes later*
"...with his fist on fire." Zane finished the story
"Whoa." We all mumble together
"So I'm the Green Ninja." Kai decided
"What are you talking about? He had incredible strength to lift that cargo and save his life. It's me." Cole replied
"No, no. Did you miss the part of the story where the guy pulled out nunchucks? I have nunchucks!" Jay defended
"I'm pretty sure I'm ruled out since it was clearly a guy in your story." I join in
"I think you're all missing the point of this dream. The point is the Falcon flew on his arm and it was my dream, so naturally it's me." Zane confessed
"I think we can cross Cole off the list. I could've lifted ten times—" Jay began to speak but was cut off
"Whoa, cross me off the list? Anyone can hold nunchucks." Cole argued
"Since you are not training, you must have already found the answer to my riddle. What is the best way to defeat your enemy?" Sensei Wu popped up out of nowhere.
"Uh, the best way to defeat your enemy is to...train, Sensei?" Kai said unsure
Maybe this was right...
"Feeble and incorrect. Maybe more training will help you focus. Remember what happened to your vehicles when you lost focus. A razor-sharp weapon is an extension of a razor-sharp mind." He goes back inside
"How am I supposed to focus when we don't know who the Green Ninja is?" Jay asks making me sigh this green ninja talk gets annoying after awhile
"I don't want to be training all day. Let's work together on this riddle. We can figure it out." I comment looking at the board to see who we decided we're going to be training partners.
"Zane and me are together. Jay you are alone this week and Cole, Y/n is your partner." Kai called out and everyone went with the partners still close together so we could talk.
"I won't go easy on you." Cole remarked
"I'll go easy on you." I replied
***
"Quit going easy on me." Cole commented as I stopped trying to talk to the others.
"Anyone got a solution to Sensei's riddle? I'm getting bored over here." I called out
"It can't be that hard. What's the best way to defeat an enemy?" Jay wondered
"Zane, you're smart. What is it?" Kai asked
"I do not know, but I sense that Sensei is going to keep us here if we don't work together and find an answer." Zane replied
"That bothers me because while we're here working, that means the enemy is playing." Cole said
"What about teamwork?" Jay inquiries
"That's not too bad let's go tell him." I respond
We all knock and enter Sensei's room
"Oh. You must have found the answer to what is the best way to defeat an enemy." Sensei stated
"We have, Sensei. It's—On three, guys. One, two..." Cole counted us off
"Teamwork!" We all exclaim smiling
"Is this what you all think?" Sensei asked
"Yeah." Cole replied
"Yes!" Jay said simultaneously
"Absolutely." I concluded
"Sadly, you are all wrong." Sensei responded
"Come on." Cole muttered
"Aw, man." Jay sighed and we all exited the room
"I'm starting to think whoever figures out this riddle can be the Green Ninja for all I care." Cole decided
The alarms start blaring.
"What's that?" Jay asks and we all run to the control room
"Who cares? It's something else besides training."Kai says when we enter
"Break it down for me, Nya." I state watching the screen
"Lloyd and a Serpentine have overtaken Darkley's Boarding School for Bad Boys." She informed
"That place is a cesspool for the crooked and the misbehaved." Jay replied
"Well, that doesn't mean they don't need our help. Step on it." Cole remarked
I push the button to fly.
***
"Looks quiet down there. Should we infiltrate using stealth?" Zane wonders as I look over the side of the ship
"Ah, we've done that. What about using our Golden Weapons that turn into our vehicles?" Kai inquiries
"Ehh. I'm not so sure about that." I respond thinking of my last time.
"Anyone have any other good ideas?" Cole asks looking around
"Hmm. Well, I have one idea, but you guys gotta trust me." Jay replied
"Oh, I don't think I like the sound of this." Kai groaned
He tells us the plan and we all move getting onto the anchor.
"Jay, I don't know about this." I comment
"Just hold on tight!" He signals Nya to drop the anchor.
We all scream as the anchor falls it crashes through the roof all the way down to the classroom of tied-up kids.
I began to cough along with everyone else.
"Okay, let's agree to never do that again." Cole remarked lifting his Scythe up at the students, making them whimper. Fortunately, he only cuts their rope. "Stay out of school, kids. Well, well, well. Kruncha and Nuckal. Substitute teachers, eh? If we cut you down, we better not catch you hang around Ninjago again. Or else." He frees them and they run off.
I look up to see Lloyd "He's on the top floor. Let's get him."
"Ninja, go!" We all exclaim I go into the elevator with Jay
Jay pushes the top floor button causing elevator music to play. We were halfway up when I look at Jay who is barely awake.
"Dude!" I groan hitting his shoulder
"What this music makes me sleepy!" He defended as the elevator dinged signaling we had reached the top.
"He's got a Serpentine with him. Watch out for booby traps!" Cole called as he was coughing in smoke. I looked through the cloud to see a huge snake.
"Ah, that's one big snake." Jay commented
I chase after the snake with Jay breaking the barricade to the roof
"Shocked to see me?" Jay asks
I turn to him smiling "that was a good one. I have one! Your all about to be blown away."
Jay and me burst into laughter "haha! That's a good one Y/n what about-" he was interrupted by Lloyd
"Do something!" Lloyd demanded as the snake took his map. "Wh-what are you doing? I thought you were my friend."
"All you wanted was to make the Serpentine your slave. Well, sorry, my dear boy, I have other plans." He disappears making me look around slowly drawing my bow.
Lloyd tries to escape but he was cornered, Wu and Nya arrive on the Destiny's Bounty.
"Lloyd Montgomery Garmadon, you come here right now." Sensei stated
"I got him." I put my bow up throwing Lloyd on my shoulder and bringing him to Wu.
"Whoa! Hey, let me go!" Lloyd protested
"What should we do with him? Wash his mouth out with soap for a year?" Cole asked
"Ground him indefinitely?" Kai wondered
"Have him sit in a corner for a century?" Zane questioned
"I know exactly what we must do." Sensei Wu said as Lloyd gulps.
***
It is now nighttime. Everyone is back at the Destiny's Bounty. I eye into the room as Master Wu is reading a book to Lloyd. We all stand in the doorway, watching the scene with angry looks.
"And that is why Jack the Rabbit never trusts a snake. The end." Sensei concluded
"Oh, if my dad had read me that book, I would never have made that mistake. I'm sorry, uncle." Lloyd apologized
"Oh, you do not need to apologize. I am sure that if your father was still here, it would be the first book he'd read. Good night, nephew. Sweet dreams." Sensei gets up and joins us
"I don't get it, Sensei." Kai stated
"Why isn't the little brat getting punished?" Jay asked
"The kid released at least 3 tribes of serpentine and what it's all forgiven now?!" I inquired
"Yeah, we had to train all day and he gets read a bedtime story? It's not fair." Cole called
"Hmm, you're right, I nearly forgot. Why are you not still training? Did you find the answer to the riddle?"
Kai Sighs "No, Sensei. We still don't know what the best way to defeat your enemy is." We all slowly walk away while hanging our heads.
"It is to make them your friend." Sensei said
"I TOLD YOU! I WIN IM THE GREEN NINJA!" I smile jumping up and down.
"Hey! When did we ever say that?!" Kai asked
"Yeah I don't remember this." Zane said
"I thought you said yourself it was a boy." Jay recalled
"Your right if I was the Green Ninja society would go wild." I reply walking away to go sleep.
