Even though this prison had been around for many years and it had suffered damage everything in the building seemed new. Upgraded and better cells, high quality security, and everyone now wore bright orange instead of the traditional black and white stripes. And mixed in with long time prison inmates were new inmates. He knew these differences because of visiting the place as a guest long ago and when had carried out a job here. An inmate screamed seemingly nonsense words as he thew himself against his cell door. Another who looked more like a creature than a person made a noise you might expect from an animal in rage or pain. A few inmates started cursing at the prison guards, using choice words that most of Ninjago saw as the worst you could say to someone. One shouted something in an unknown language. While many others shouted many other things. Some were quite though, the smart ones. A few didn't even glance at him and the prison guards. The guards led him to one of the very few empty cells on the main floor and shoved him in. He glared at them mildly as they closed and looked the cell. " We might need some more expansion, this place is getting filled up. " said one of the guards. " Well what with having the remains of a small army or gang being thrown in here more then once a year and now the violent protesters coming in recently I'm not surprised. " replied his fellow guard. "There's a few of the remaining colonist that tried to settle on the dark island too, right?" "Yeah, that guy screaming his head off and beating his cell like mad is one of them." " Really? I didn't realize... " "Yeah the poor guy has gone in insane. Once he left the hospital his family sent him here since they didn't want to deal with him. " "I guess I can't blame them. " " Rumor has it the ninja went to go deal with whatever's happening over there. " " I heard, wouldn't it be horrible if the ninja came back as insane as that guy? " " Yeah, all of Ninjago would be in danger, and even if we cought them they'd be nearly impossible to contain. " " I know right? The elemental master downstairs in the super max is hard enough to deal with. "
However maybe this is a blessing in disguise, this way neither is left being the only one without an element ( besides Nathan) ,and perhaps they can even help each other overcome their fears. They do need to get a move on though, anything could strike Ninjago at any given time and if something does happen my students will need to use everything they've got. So I've decided to teach them a form that my sensei tought me. It's called Dance of the Elements. And although it's not really a dance per say ( depends on who you ask), it does allow you to relax and just think like you already had control over your element. I used this form to get better control over my green ninja powers right after the run in with The Hands of Time and the Vermilion warriors, it helped a lot. If that doesn't work I don't know what will, that's the thing about elemental powers, they can't be forced into control. It needs to come naturally, and it's different for every person.
These are some lit parts. I always find when authors post parts faster, I get more and more drawn into the story. I don't think I've been this immersed since catching up with the topic for the first time. Keep up the great work, you've got us all on the edge of our seats!
I really want to know what the ninja have been up to and to see them again,
Nathan's training to be a ninja now, awesome,
I'm just as mad as Lloyd, this Hillary Gossip (relative of Gale Gossip?) and the rest of the Ninjago sure aren't grateful for all that the Elemental Masters have done for them,
Whoa, I thought the Retriever was with Alpha, this is interesting indeed,
And big thumbs up from me.
( Yep, a relative of Gale. ) Yeah that part was a little repulsive to write.

You put some awesome feels into this prison.
Thanks! It was mostly inspired by the song Heathens by Twenty One Pilots.

Is this the dance from the LEGO Ninjago movie?
No. You won't find any Ninjago movie references here... ( And if you do they're not intended. )

Really? Wow that's great. Thanks again! Now I just need to write some more before I run out of parts to post.

Lisa, Moe, Jadyn and Zephyr were doing Dance of the Elements. Which was like most martial arts forms had a bunch of different moves put together to create a routine, however this was much slower and more relaxed than most forms. It had been a week since Sensei had tought it to them and they mostly had it memorized by now. Sensei was teaching Nathan outside while they were inside. Zephyr went along with the motions, doing just as the others did. It wasn't working. Zephyr suspected why, but she wouldn't let herself believe it. However every time she tried harnessing her element everything her family ever told about keeping that fact she was related to Gravis a secret came to mind, making her hold back. Later during free time Sensei gathered everyone together. " I thought it might be nice to go somewhere special tonight. " Said Sensei Lloyd. " Where? " Asked Moe. " Are we going to see our parents? " Asked Lisa. " Not yet, not tonight at least. " Said Sensei. " Something educational? " Asked Nathan. <br> " Nope. Something fun. " Said Sensei. " So we're all going?" asked Jadyn. "That's the thing... " Said Sensei. " Unfortunately a couple of you need to work on training and can't come this time. " " Who does that apply to? " Asked Nathan concerned. " Zephyr and Jadyn. " Repiled Sensei. Well at least it's not all bad. Thought Zephyr. " Is this really necessary Sensei? " Asked Jadyn, a sceptical look on his face. " My dojo, my rules. " Said Sensei Lloyd, Zephyr couldn't tell if he was kidding or not.
A little later Lisa, Nathan, Moe and Sensei were about to leave. Sensei stopped right before he headed out the door and said. " Remember, fear is your greatest obstacle right now. " And with that they left. Silence. " Want to train outside? " Zephyr suggested. " Sure. " Said Jadyn. They went out the back door and into the training by the garden. It was dark out, but the light of the aurora minerals lit the garden and training area enough to train. Peak made an odd noise off in the distance. The sound of the tiny waterfalls and the wind blowing through the plants filled the back garden. They stood there in silence for moment. Zephyr looked out at garden, it still made her feel at home with all the greenery and flowing water. The sound of some insects could also be heard, and a moth flew nearby. " What now?" Asked Zephyr. " How about we stretch out first. " Said Jadyn thoughtfully as if he were pondering something. " Ok. " They warmed up with some stretches for about five minutes, they avoided some of the floor ones though since the ground was wet. Once they had finished doing that Jadyn said, " You know, I've been thinking about what Sensei said before he left tonight... " Zephyr was listening, but said nothing. Jadyn continued " How about this... I'll face my fear if you face your's. " Zephyr thought about this for a moment. This was a bold thing he was suggesting, but she knew he was right. They had to overcome their fears at some point if they ever wanted to have control over their elements. She may not know his fear and he may not know hers, but a least they wouldn't be facing them alone. Jadyn walked over to her, hand outstretched. " Deal?" "Deal. " They shook on it.
