But that didn't make any sense, that sounded more like the stuff of comic books. One slashed their knife at Zephyr, she hadn't been ready for that attack and the knife cut quickly through her gi and skin on her right arm. Zephyr didn't dare look at her injury and decided to ignore it for the moment. Gradually the numbers of opponents dropped, as if they just decided to leave one by one. Soon there was only about the amount that had first appeared. They backed away, and ran away down the other side of alleyway. The injured ones must have left with help, if there was any injured for that matter. They were about to go after them when Sensei said. " Let them go. They got the fight they wanted. They told me they are with the miners we encountered and this was their revenge. Let's go home. " " But don't you want to catch them Sensei?" Asked Lisa. " I believe it would be best to have more information about them first. The last thing we want at the moment is to walk into another trap without thinking first. " They headed back to the jet to find it open. " I was afraid of this..." Said Sensei. The control panel had been opened and many of the wires cut. The supplies that had been stored in the back had been looted through and there was wolf paws, comet-like objects and other stange symbols spray painted all over the jet. Sensei was cursing and complaining under his breath as he tossed the remaining supplies out to them. Which turned out to be a first aid kit, some dried food, a few blankets and jet fuel. " They took my travelers tea and spare weapons." " Do you have any travelers tea with you? " Asked Moe. " No. " " What do you suggest we do than Sensei? " Asked Lisa. " Well we could always- Ah! " Sensei Lloyd was cut off as an arrow flew out of nowhere and inbeded itself in his leg. Soon more arrows started coming at them sticking into the ground at their feet. " Run! It's an ambush! " Cried Sensei. Lisa put down the jet fuel and they all ran for the cover of the forest on the outskirts of the town.
Aw, they redecorated the jet for them. How thoughtful. :3
Ok... hopefully you can see the problem here... And hopefully you can see where I messed up and read it just fine... @me DON'T POST STORY PARTS WHEN IT'S PAST 12:00am AND YOU'RE SO TRIED YOU MAKE THESE KINDS OF MESS UPS!!!
I don't see a problem, actually. I think a certain friendly mod fixed whatever problem there was for ya.
Yeah I'm very greatful. However I now realize I forgot to switch chapters as well so this chapter is longer than the others.
Yep, there's always annoying old vengestone that can stop it though.
Vengestone? Darn, should've known they couldn't let this go unchecked.
Yeah, if an elemental master is touching, chained to or in a cage or cell made of vengestone they can't use their elemental power. It was actually brought in as early as season one.
Zephyr didn't dare looked behind her, she just kept running. She was still holding the blankets Sensei had handed her. As she ran her vision seemed to blur. They ran into some foliage, a shape branch reminded her of her injury on her arm as she rushed by it. Zephyr wasn't sure how long they had been running, but when they finally stopped she struggled to breathe normally and fell to the ground. Telling herself that even if they had to start running again she wouldn't move. " Did we lose 'em? " Asked Moe. "I believe so... " Said Sensei sitting down on a nearby fallen three and examining the arrow in his leg. " Let me help you with that Sensei. " Said Lisa a look of concern on her face. Lisa took the first aid kit from Jadyn. Sensei grimaced at the arrow and said. " An arrow should not be removed, it could do more harm than good... However you can help wrap it with tape and such to make sure it doesn't move until I can get to a hospital... " " Can't we remove it now? " Asked Lisa. " Nah, it would be to risky. " Repiled Sensei. " There's gotta be a way we can get help for you, isn't there? " Said Zephyr. " Our closest help would be if the town has a healer. " Said Sensei Lloyd. " But that means we'd have to go back and possibly fall into another trap. " Said Jadyn. Zephyr forced herself to stand up, setting the blankets aside. It was getting late, but it seemed even later since thick gray clouds covered the sky and the few trees with leaves left shaded them also. Sensei looked grim. " Lisa, you help me make sure the arrow doesn't move, I already caused enough damage when we were running. Jadyn, can you help Zephyr bandage up her arm? And Moe, if you could set up a camp for us here that would be great. "
" Wait, we're staying the night?! " Asked Moe. " We may not have a choice if we can't find a way out of here. Our only sources of transportation other than walking or elemental dragon are damaged or gone. Plus the only cumication device I brought with us was installed in the jet. And even if we can find a way to cumicate with someone it'll take them awhile to get here, even if it is an emergency... " Repiled Sensei. " What about Nathan? Won't he be worried about us? " Jadyn inquired. " He'll be fine, for now we need to deal with these wounds and than if anyone wants to brave it into town for help they can. " Jadyn took some bandage wrap, gauze, hydrogen peroxide and first aid tape and walked over to where Zephyr was. "We might need some of those in a couple minutes. " Said Lisa rolling up her sleeves getting ready to help Sensei secure the arrow. " We have plenty. " Said Sensei. " Why don't you sit on that rock over there. " Jadyn said to Zephyr. " Ok. " She sat down on the large rock and rolled up her sleeve. Her arm was a mess. She used her other sleeve to clean it off the best she could. " This may sting a little. " Warned Jadyn opening the hydrogen peroxide. Zephyr nodded in understanding. She winced as he poured the cool clear liquid onto her cut. It stun for a moment as it bubbled a little. He handed her the gauze. " Put this over the cut." She did so, holding it in place. Jadyn took the bandage wrap and put it over the gauze. Zephyr stopped holding it in place and Jadyn wrapped the bandage wrap around her injury. " Can I borrow your knife to cut this really quick? " He asked holding up the bandage wrap. She couldn't really say no could she?
Hopefully he wouldn't notice the symbols or not recognize them at least. Zephyr took her knife out of it's pouch with her left hand, wiped the blade off on her pants just in case and handed it to Jadyn. "You use this in the fight?" He glanced at it for a second before cutting the bandage wrap off from the roll. He handed it back to her and said. " Nice knife, it seems familiar... Where did you get it?" He used the first aid tape to secure the bandage wrap on Zephyr's arm. " My father gave it to me. " She replied. He looked thoughtful as if trying to figure out how to say something. " ...It looks a lot like the knives the people were using tonight... " Zephyr couldn't think of how to respond to that, so she just said, " Yeah... " Jadyn picked up the first aid stuff. " Thanks Jadyn. " She said unroling her sleeve. He grinned, than walked over by Sensei Lloyd and Lisa. Lisa had warped Sensei's leg with the arrow still there. Before it got completely dark Moe had cleared the area so they could build a fire and have some clear space on the ground for them to sleep. They gathered some firewood under Sensei's instructions. They didn't have any matches or a lighter so Jadyn somewhat reluctantly lit the fire with his elemental power. They had the dried food for dinner and discussed what they were going to do. " Well, if we try to bring the healer here, what's the worst that could happen? " Asked Zephyr. " We all smash and Copic has to protect Ninjago. " Jadyn joked. " Have a little faith in your sister. " Said Lisa rolling her eyes in amusement. " It's settled than? We're all going? " Asked Moe. " Unless one of use wants to stay with Sensei. " Said Jadyn. Who would want to do that though? " I can handle myself. " Said Sensei Lloyd.
The four of them headed off into the night, treading as quietly as they dared though the forest. They finally reached the edge of the woods and looked out at the quiet town. " Do you think they're still there? " whispered Zephyr. " We need to sneak into town even if they are." Repiled Lisa in a hushed voice. " Follow me, one at a time. " Said Jadyn. He creeped along the forest line and slipped into the shadow of a nearby building, then he went up against the dark building so that he was hardly visible. If he were wearing black instead of red he would have been nearly impossible to see. Lisa, Moe and Zephyr did the same as he did. Zephyr stepped on a branch as she did so though. The snap seemed to echo across the forest and could probably be heard loud and clear in town too. She froze, not daring to even breathe. Nothing happened, only the night noises of the forest made noise and the town stayed quiet. She eventually figured it must be safe and followed the others over to the building. From then on they stuck to the shadows of the town, letting the dark patches cover them like a safe blanket. Slipping in and out of alleyways and yards sreaching for signs of a what could be a healer's home. They crept alongside some wooden fences, suddenly Zephyr heard howling and barking coming from the inside of the nearest fence. Her heart skipped a beat and she froze. In a moment though she claimed down and looked through a hole in the fence. Two small fuzzy figures came toward her, the moonlight shown on their fur as they came out in the open. They were dogs, two small furry dogs with spotted coats. Zephyr relaxed, however she started to fear for her life again shortly after. The dogs wouldn't harm them, but whoever heard them barking might. The dogs continued to bark, Zephyr, Jadyn, Lisa and Moe picked up their speed and got out of the general area. Not a moment to soon either, a light came on outside of the house and a woman's voice could be heard shouting at the dogs about waking up the entire neighborhood over nothing.
When the women went inside, the light turned off and the dogs were quiet Lisa whispered. " Maybe we're going about this the wrong way. We should should ask a local for help. " " But what if the locals were in on it? Asked Moe. " What? The alley attack earlier? I highly doubt it. " " So do we just knock and hope for the best?" Asked Jadyn. " Yeah, I'm thinking we disguise ourselves so we just look like normal people in need of a healer for our friend. " repiled Lisa. Zephyr wasn't sure that would work or how so she asked. " How would we do that? " " I'll show you once we decide which house to ask. " Moe pointed back were they came from and said. " How about the house with the dogs, I bet the lady is still awake so it's not we'd be waking anyone. " They all agreed that would be best and creeped over to the front of the house. Lisa explained that should take off thier ninja hoods and the top part of their gi so it could just looked like they were wearing a t shirt and pants. Which could easily pass for pajamas if anything. They all did as she instructed, Zephyr did so reluctantly. They bunched up the clothing they weren't wearing and carried it with them. Lisa walked up to the door and knocked, the sound of dogs barking came from inside. After a moment the door opened and woman with gray hair and slightly wrinkled face in a bath robe stood looking at them in groggy puzzlement. The dogs continued to bark and tried to get out the door, she grabbed their collars to hold them back. " So you are what they were going on about, should've guessed it was bunch of crazy night owls like you. What do you want from me? "
Before anyone else could say anything Lisa said. " Oh we're so sorry to bother you, we would't have except that it's an emergency. " " An emergency? " Asked the woman. " We need a healer to help our friend in the forest, he's badly injured. " Explained Lisa. " Our town has no healer, if anyone get injured we take them to the doctors office in the next town over a few miles away. My little sister used to be a nurse there. How badly is your friend hurt? " " Well... To put it simply he has an arrow in his leg. " Said Lisa slowly. " What could've possibly-! Are you serious? How? " The woman looked wide awake now, and the dogs seemed calmer now. " Afraid so." Repiled Lisa. The woman motioned for them to come in. " Come inside, tell me everything quickly and maybe I can help you. " They came inside, the woman let go of the dogs, closed the door and turned the light on. The dogs came over to the young ninja curiously. Zephyr leaned down to pet them and they waged their short tails. Jadyn glanced at Lisa and asked. " Are you sure we should tell her everything? " " It's probably better to be honest, she is willing to help us. " Repiled Lisa. " Did you hear about the threats asking the green ninja and his students to come here? " Jadyn asked the woman. " I did. " Said the woman plainly. " We're those students, and it's our Sensei, the green ninja who's hurt. " He explained. The woman's eyes widened and she seemed to be examining them all for the first time. " I never expected... I never imagined... You're all so much younger than I expected, kinder too, in fact I never imagined faces, just faceless cruel warriors... But you... " " So can you help us? " Asked Moe. " I can try, let me call my sister. "
The woman called her sister and shortly after a van pulled up to the house with a woman driving it who looked about ten years younger than the woman with the dogs. They leaned that woman's name was Nina and her sister who was driving was named Lily. They decided they would drive the van up to the forest and Lily would go in the forest with the four of them to see how bad the injury was. They did this and in no time they were tracking through the forest again they reached the spot where Sensei Lloyd was and Lily rushed to examine him. " I see you secured it in place, now let me see..." She unwrapped his leg carefully. " Ah, I know how they'll deal with this, I might as well do this here and now if you can stand the pain. " She commented. " That would be very much appreciated. " repiled Sensei. Lily went back to the van to get her supplies as she called it, and a flashlight. She came back with a backpack full of medical equipment. In short she got right to work with it while the four of them would take turns holding the flashlight. It was quite graphic, but she eventually after a lot of careful work got the arrow out in one piece and wrapped Lloyd's leg. " Thank you... Is there any form of payment you'd like? " Asked Sensei. " Hmm, I don't think so. I've heard a lot about you green ninja, and unlike my sister I think you've been through a lot for the people of Ninjago's safety. Consider this an act of kindness in return. " They said goodbye to the sisters, than they settled down in their temporary camp. Sensei said they would return to the jet and the town in morning and hopefully they could find clues about their mysterious opponents and find a way to get home, plus fix the jet. They would take turns keeping watch in the night just in case they were attacked. Sensei took the first shift. Lisa would watch next, than Jadyn, than Moe, and Zephyr would watch till morning. They used the blankets, there was four, so there was enough if the person on watch at the time didn't use one. Zephyr lay down on the ground and went to sleep rather quickly.
Start with "Ride" and "Stressed Out."
