Zephyr stood in front of Sensei Lloyd in a garden. She was training alone with him because he was trying to encourage her to unlock her elemental abilities. " Gravity is something you can't see, you can't feel it and hardly notice it's there most of the time. Yet it is always there, keeping the planet together and it's inhabitants safely bound to it. In space, it is the lack of gravity that makes everything float. So to control gravity you must first understand the gravity that is already here." said Sensei. He handed Zephyr a box of items, things like: a baseball, a feather, a rock, a piece of paper, a sponge, a rubber duck and more were inside of it. " Drop, toss and mess around with these items. Try to understand how they react to gravity. I'll be back out in an hour to see how you're doing. " " Wait what? " asked Zephyr, but Sensei was already making his way toward the door. Zephyr sat down and stared at the box of stuff in puzzlement. A whole hour huh? Might as well make the best of it. Thought Zephyr. She started by dropping each item one by one, once she'd gone through them all she started tossing and flipping them. Once she was bored with that she made a paper airplane out of the paper and messed around with it for awhile. Then she tossed around the baseball, long story short it ended up on the roof. She then put the rubber duck at the top of one of the mini waterfalls and let it float until it plummeted down the waterfall and watched as it was pushed by the water up to a point where the water flow wasn't strong enough to push it anymore. She did more and by the time Sensei Lloyd came back the paper airplane was soaked, the rock was destroyed by being rubbed on an aurora mineral, the baseball still on the roof, and the rubber duck was now the greatest waterfall adventurer in Ninjago. " So what did you learn? " asked Sensei. "You can do lots of cool stuff with a box of random objects." Zephyr answered honestly. " ...Maybe we're going at this the wrong way..." Said Sensei.
The next day Zephyr, Lisa, Jadyn and Moe were playing video games in their spare time. "Come on! Come on!" Shouted Moe desperately. "We're trying! " said Lisa. " Ouch! I'm outa' lives." said Zephyr as her avatar flashed red and fell over. "Oh there I go too. " said Lisa. " Come on Jadyn, we need to beat this guy! " Said Moe entuasticly as the creature on the screen roared menacingly. " Right, how about I fight the small bugs he spits out and you hit him on the head. " said Jadyn making his character swing his sword at enemies. " Ok here I go, and no! No! Not the lava blast! " shouted Moe as his and Jadyn's avatars got enveloped in lava shooting from the creature mouth. " How unfortunate you didn't make it to the platform to escape from his lava blast and THEN hit him in head with your sword. " said Sensei Lloyd. " What do you know? I thought you were only into retro games." said Moe. " Am I? " said Sensei grinning, "Follow me. " He walked into his room and his students followed. He lifted a part of the wall up to reveal a TV, he then opened another compartment that had a console game just like the one in the mane room. He turned it on and put a game in, the exact game they were playing. He loaded the game and then selected "new game " He then started playing from the beginning, skipping through all the story parts. "What is he doing?" Asked Zephyr. " You'll see... " repiled Jadyn.
Sensei then started playing through each and every level quickly and without any fails, speeding through it casually. What would have been levels that might have taken someone five to twenty minutes Sensei finished within a minute or less. "Is he? Is he speed running? " asked Moe. "In a way." Replied Jadyn. " How? " said Moe. " What did you think I do with my free time? Meditate? " said Sensei still grinning. Within a reasonable amount of time Sensei Lloyd had made it to the level they were at. With a mischievous glance at Moe Sensei took out the creature in no time hardly. " I think that's enough showing off for today. " said Sensei. He saved and quit, turning the game off and then said " Alright everyone out, you need to get back to your free time don't you? " He got up to leave the room but Moe stopped him. "Wait, please tell me everything! Teach me! " He grinned wider still and replied " Perhaps I can teach you a little. "
The time is near, I must leave to join the ninja soon, tomorrow in fact. It will be win it all or lose it all. If everything does go to the worst though at least my students know enough that hopefully they would be able to protect Ninjago. I can't help but wonder who those strange people in Lost Miners' Mine were, but hopefully if we do ever have a run in with them again my students will be better trained and ready to face them. Also there is the matter of Lisa and Jadyn inheriting their parents' elements. Hopefully Jadyn won't resist it and rather embraced it, and Lisa I have no concern for, I know she is ready. It is a mystery when Zephyr and Moe will unlock their powers, I know they must have them. But anyways, if all goes well on the Dark Island I plan to return not long after the Autumn Festavel.
Lisa stood outside of the Dojo on a nearby hill. The sun was setting, shades of orange and yellow lit the sky. Sensei Lloyd had left a few days ago and Jadyn had left a day or so after that to spend his eighteenth birthday with his sister like he said he would. Lisa hoped he was alright, this was his first birthday away from both of his parents. Zephyr and Moe were inside playing video games, they had asked Lisa to join them but she refused, she knew the time was near, she could feel it. Like a tingling in her vains, light headedness in her head and vapor in her chest. Suddenly a blueish white light came from over the horizon and straight toward her, she cought the ball of energy almost without thinking about it. Then the sence in front of her shifted and she could see the dark landscape of the Dark Island around her. Then, she saw her father, standing there right in front of her. "Don't look behind you, just focus on me. " He said. " Is the evil darkness you spoke of there? " she asked. " For me it is, but like I said, focus on me child. " He grinned softly and touched the ball of energy with both hands. " This is yours to protect now, and yours to protect with. It is the duty passed on from elemental master to elemental master. " " Father, I'm not worthy of this power. " " No one is at first, and no one needs to be, it's a gift. A gift from The First Spinjizu Master to the elemental masters, and from the elemental masters to those who came after them. " Zane paused and Lisa nodded in understanding. " Now you must take this before it destroys me. " said her father pushing the energy ball closer to her. " Will you?.. Will you live father? " asked Lisa trying to keep herself from tearing up. Zane grinned. " Most likely. Be strong my daughter. " And with that the Dark Island began to fade away and the sunset returned. The ball of energy went into Lisa and she felt a cold warmth throughout her body. Her father began to fade, she reached out to touch him but her hand went right through him like a ghost and before she knew it he was gone. " Father... "
It was dark when Lisa finally came inside, some moonlight came through the windows of the dojo but otherwise it was dark inside as well. Zephyr and Moe must have gone to bed. Lisa stretched out her hand in front of her examining it. I wonder if I can do it now? Thought Lisa. She tried to focus on creating ice, how it was cold and soild. She thought of how a cold winter wind felt and how water molecules would conform to the cold weather. An idea suddenly hit her and she keeled down and put her hand on the floor. Ice came from her hand and a tin frozen layer of ice covered the area within three feet around her. She'd done it! " Whoa! What happened? " said a voice. At first Lisa had thought the training pads had just been left out, but she now realized Moe had been sleeping on them and he was now tumbling off them in surprise. " Ouch... " He mumbled. " Moe, why aren't you in bed? asked Lisa. " I could ask you the same question. Whoa, what's that? " He pointed at the ice Lisa had just made. " Ice. " She said hoping he would connect the dots on his own. " Wait really? Did you? " Asked Moe amazed. " I just fully inherited the power from my father." Lisa explained. "Awesome! I wanna try. " Moe said eagerly. " " How do you plan to accomplish that? " asked Lisa curiously. " How'd you do it? " He asked. Lisa did her best to explain it to him and when she was finished he said " Ya know maybe I can just start running and see if that works. " " Are you sure? I mean you don"t want to resprang your leg or anything. " "I'll be fine, it's all healed up now, and besides, I want to unlock my element as soon as possible! " He said heading for the door. "Wait... You're not doing this now, are you? " Lisa asked skeptically. " Of course I am. " He said grinning. " Ok... Go ahead then. But I'm going to bed. " " Ok! See ya! " And with that he opened the door and ran outside.
Running around in the dark, ok... Thought Lisa. She'd probably never fully understand Moe, or any of her other teammates for that matter... Lisa went into her room. Luma woke up from the noise and bounced around her cage a bit before settling back down to rest. Lisa got ready for bed and then finally crawled into bed with releaf. She had done it. She hopped Jadyn was going to be alright, she knew he hated the idea of inheriting his father's element. She remembered back when they were very young. Jadyn, his older sister Copic , herself and Jay and Nya's daughter Zalea would pretend they had their parents' elements. At that time Jadyn embraced it, they all did and would imagine themselves as the future protectors of Ninjago. However, many circumstances caused this future to never be. Lisa wondered who Jay would pick to pass his powers to since Zalea had passed away long ago... Probably his son, although he seemed so young for such a task... Before Lisa could think of much more, she drifted off to sleep.

This sounds exactly like me and one of my classes right now. XD We are building with foam blocks in a 3D design course, and I spent an hour and a half 1 afternoon building a tower out of them.

Most likely... ? O_O CON we get a more definitive answer?

Oh my goodness! Guess what? I just watched a video of fifty wolves howling, it was chillingly awesome. But then I look in the comments section and people are saying " I love hearing Zephyr howl" and I'm like how do they know about my character? Turns out the wolf the camera was on is named Zephyr. Funny coincidence right?

That sounds fun.
Well, it was fun for the first 45 minutes or so, and then I kind of just wanted it to be over. But I had to finish it.
