Chapter 11: Another Poorly Written Chapter “There is something I’ve noticed about your powers.” Wu stated as he looked upon Andrew, sitting uncomfortably upon his wooden chair. Andrew didn’t respond. “You seem to only use them at a certain time.” He continued. “The first time was during training, when you frightened your teammates, and the second was, supposedly, during the Skulkin battle, when you changed to a skeleton to ‘sneak up on them and clean their clocks.’ This has brought me to a theory: you only use your power when you want to.” Andrew stood up from his chair. “That’s not true!” He shouted. “Oh, but I’m sure it is.” Wu went on. “You don’t seem to enjoy academics, therefore you don’t give it as much effort, hence your lack of transformation.” Andrew scoffed at the part about academics, because he saw it as an understatement. He then tried to come up with a response. “Well—I—uh—that’s not true!” “If you have reasons to disbelief so, please share them to me.” “That’s so not true!” “I’m honestly open to being corrected, but I will only listen to it if sound logic is behind it.” Anger boiled inside Andrew. It was correct, but he hated it. He hated Wu knowing the truth about his attitude. He hated Wu thinking he was just a brat. He hated being the one whom was wrong and dumb. Temper rose and flared inside him. He began to shout out louder: “That’s not true,” but instead a mighty roar came out. He looked down to see that the desk had been knocked over, and Wu had fallen somewhere near to the corner of the room. He suddenly felt the mighty wings sticking out from his sides, and the long tail from the end of his spine, and how big he was. He was a dragon. Wu looked frightened, and this pleased Andrew. After all the tormenting schoolwork given, Andrew wanted a way to provoke a reaction out of him. Loud stomps were heard from outside the room, and the door swung open to reveal Kai, Nya and Jay. “Wu?” Kai gasped in surprise as he saw the Sensei on the ground. Nya let out a quiet squeal at the large dragon in the room. “What is that?!” “Is it . . . Skylor’s dragon?” Jay asked rhetorically. Andrew suddenly made his wings and tail shrink away, and fell to the ground as a human again. The ninja let out small gasps of surprise to see that it was him. Andrew was expecting them to all by impressed by his transformation skills, but instead they ran to aid Wu. “Are you all right?” Nya asked, concerned. “I’m okay.” Wu announced as he slowly rose to his feet. Kai turned to Andrew. “Why did you do that?!” He yelled angrily. “You could have hurt him—badly!” Shame was beginning to make Andrew feel lower and lower, but Wu spoke up: “Kai, do not display your anger to him. He is still learning to control his power.” Kai grumbled and walked out of the door grudgingly. The others followed, still wearing concern upon their faces. Andrew turned to Wu nervously, afraid of potential incoming wrath. Instead, Wu just chuckled. “Just like I said.” Wu noted. “Only when you want to.”

“Aw, are you kidding me?” Cole shouted in anger. Andrew walked over to the fridge where he was standing. “What’s up?” He asked. “We’re all out of kidney beans! Now I can’t make my stew.” “That’s stew-pid!” Cole started at Andrew. “Get it?” Andrew asked. “Stew? Stew-pid? Stupid? No?” Andrew sighed. “Is that the only thing you can make?” “Yeah, it is!” Cole confirmed. “We don’t have anything else that can be used to cook anything else; we’re not going shopping until tomorrow!” “You mean we don’t have to eat your cooking?” Andrew jumped into the air in joy. “Whoo hoo!” He shouted. Noticing Cole’s annoyed face, he then pretended to be sorrowful and lied: “Oh, I mean, that’s a shame. Boo.” “We could always eat at Mister Chen’s.” Nya said, walking into the kitchen. “Yeah!” Andrew agreed. “Let’s do that!” “Isn’t it a bit expensive to eat out, especially considering there are six of us?” Lloyd asked. Apparently, he had walked into the kitchen as well. “Maybe Skylor will give us a discount, being friends and all!” Cole suggested. “She’s at the hospital, visiting Kai.” “Oh. Right.” Several minutes later, the ninja had driven up to the colorful building, where the irritating but catchy music played faintly as the multiple neon colors shone. The ninja pushed open the glass door to the coolly air-conditioned, bright building. They sat down at a table near the counter, where many unhealthily-colored foods rotated around on a conveyor belt. Cole, excited by the mouth-watering goodness of the steaming, well-cooked noodles, grabbed a bowl and a pair of chopsticks placed in front of him, and quickly shoveled food into his mouth. “Hey, hey, take it easy there, cowboy!” Jay cautioned noticed the speed of his consumption. “How can I help it?” Cole asked, muffled due to his full mouth. He swallowed, and his voice cleared as he declared: “These noodles are the best!” Suddenly, a man in red-and-purple robes with a funny hat popped out from behind the counter. “You can be sure of that!” Master Chen confirmed cheerfully. The ninja released yells of surprise and instinctively jumped back. “Master Chen?!” Lloyd shouted. “From the Tournament of Elements?!” “You know it! I’m back!” “But-but how?!” Nya stammered. “The same way Clouse did!” Chen confirmed. “I thought Clouse got out when Morro and Lloyd were messing with the Realm Crystal.” Cole pondered. “I did! But it sent me to a different realm.” Chen said. “There were, like, these knights, but they were all electronic, you know? Really weird. I found a teleporter thingamabob there, and used it to get back here!” “But shouldn’t you be a ghost?” Lloyd asked. “Possessed a mannequin, like last time! Duh!” Chen exclaimed. “But how did you get in the museum?” Jay asked, confused. “How did you get here without being stopped? How-” “So many questions!” Chen said. “Do I look like a . . . uh . . . something that give answers?! Do I?! Do I?! Huh?! Huh?!” “So . . . why isn’t he attacking us yet?” Jay wondered. “I’ve come to do good!” Chen announced. “Make noodles! Make rice! Even make rice noodles!” “I have my doubts.” Lloyd said suspiciously. “You’re about as trustworthy as Ronin.” “I am not!” Chen argued. “Who’s Ronin anyway? Anyway, if you don’t believe me, just ask Iggy!” Chen then placed a green, spiky object on the counter. Nya cringed. “Is that a . . . lizard?” Nya pondered. “No it’s not!” Chen said, as he began to give the creature a light squeeze. “She’s an iguana! Duh!” Looking at the iguana, he then cooed: “Don’t worry, little Iggy; she’s just a silly ninja who knows nothing about anything. She didn’t mean any harm. He looked up at Nya again. “How dare you call her a lizard?!” He shouted. “You hurt her feelings!” Andrew was trying hard—but failing—at muffling his laughs. Chen rose his fist into the air and looked at the ninja angrily. “Insult Iggy again, and things will get messy!” “Is it just me, or is he getting crazier all the time?” Jay whispered to Cole. “What?!” Chen exclaimed. “You think being stuck in the Departed Realm has made me crazy?!” “Well, yeah.” Cole admitted. Chen then flung a bowl of sushi directly to Cole’s face. A splat was heard. “Take that, you smelly potato! You’re nothing but a bowl of llama spit! Ha! So there.” Andrew couldn’t contain his emotions any longer. He then started roaring with laugher, falling onto the floor and pounding the ground. “See?” Chen asked. “My noodles are so superb, he’s filled with joy! Now, where’s Skylor?”
About that title . . . did you mean "master"? And iguanas are lizards.

@chapter title: Really? *looks around* Where? I don't see any.
1) The last thing anyone eating at a Ninjagian restaurant wants to see: CHEN.
2) ohmisquash you did not just mention Nexo Knights. Wonder how what exactly he did there. . .
3) laughing so stinking hard I can't even--!
I'd like to see him! (Is it Ninjagoian?)
Yep, he did. I remember that from last time! He probably won Axl over with his noodles.
The times where I laugh most are when I read both of you guys' stories.

Chapter 12 - Confusion "Does it look bad?" Kai groaned weakly. It did indeed look bad. The wound looked large and painful. Skylor resisted the feeling to cringe, and told her friend: "No. It's not too bad." Kai sighed, perhaps from relief. "Skylor . . ." he began, "what if I don't make it out of this place?" "Of course you'll make it out. The doctors here are experienced and will treat the wound well. I'm sure you make it out just fine." "But just in case - I'd like a little something to remember you by." Skylor finally figured out what Kai was attempting to insinuate. She gave a slight smile. "Oh." She said. Kai lifted his head from the soft pillow and Skylor moved hers down lower. The two lips- "I'm here!!" A voice shouted loudly as he kicked the swinging door open - Master Chen. "Where's my Sky-Sky?" Skylor suddenly turned around. Kai wore a face of extreme disappointment, a bit like a Saint Bernard. "Father?!" She exclaimed. "What are you doing here?! I thought you were banished to the Cursed Realm--and the Departed Realm!" "So maybe I was!" Chen exclaimed. "But how are things going for you? How's the restaurant doing?" "I was doing great before you got here." Skylor said crossly. "And the restaurant is doing fine." "Is it still Ninjago's number one noodle house?" "Er . . . about that . . ." Chen raised an eyebrow suspiciously. "It's very popular. It's Ninjago's nu. . ." Skylor's voice trailed off, but she continued too quietly to hear. "Come again?" Chen asked, exasperated. "It's Ninjago's number TWO noodle house." Chen gasped in horror. His iguana gasped in horror. Jay gasped for breath. The ninja had just ran into the hospital room, all panting heavily. "We tried to stop him, but he was so fast!" Jay exclaimed. "Even in that dress!" "It's not a dress, it's a ROBE!" Chen corrected. "Sheesh! Go to kindergarten!" "Somebody get him!" Nya shouted. "Wait!" Chen screamed. "I'm not here for EVIL, I'm here to do GOOD by restoring Master Chen's to Ninjago's number one noodle house!" "I highly doubt that." Lloyd stated. "You have a large evil background, and I can only imagine you'd want to come back for revenge." "I am one with the light side! I'm an innocent angel! No evil thought would enter my head for as long as - hold on! Is that Kai over there, wounded?!" "For as long as two seconds." Lloyd finished, unimpressed. Chen stepped over two Kai's hospital bed, and began talking to himself. "Well, what do you know? Kai, that hot-headed fool, was the one who foiled all of my plans, and at the end, it's HIS fault I was banished! Oh yes, I've spent hours growing a hate and thirst for revenge for him, and now he's weak and vulnerable! Hee, hee! I wonder if I could-" The blade of a golden katana suddenly appeared dangerously close to Chen's throat. Lloyd held it firmly, and Chen looked up at him. "Was I talking aloud again?" He asked. Lloyd nodded, keeping focused and determined eye contact at the dangerous noodle maker. "Oh, dumplings." Chen swore. "I thought I was scheming in my head, where nobody hears me. I suppose I just don't notice anymore; even Garmadon complained about-" Lloyd suddenly dropped the katana in surprise of his father's name. It fell down to Chen's feet, with the side of the blade landing. "Hey!" Chen shouted. "Watch it! You could have hurt my toesies!" "You've seen Garmadon?" Lloyd asked, surprised. "I thought he smashed in the Cursed Realm!" "If he did, I would too, but Dave mixed things up, and now there's a Departed Realm for those who depart, whether it be Ninjago, the weird place with the fire-and-ice animals, or the Cursed Realm! Remember last time?" "Why didn't you bring him with you?! He could have been with us right now!" "Eh, we just have a bitter past; it'd just feel awkward. Y'know what I'm saying?" "For the record, I have no clue what in Ninjago is happening." Andrew piped up from the back. "Oh, that's right!" Cole realized. "We never told you about Chen! Well, he's a noodle seller who's actually a villain, and he got a bunch of other elemental masters along with us to compete in a tournament where only one could remain. We eventually had to go against each other, and the losers slaved away in his noodle factory! There was also a giant snake, and the workers at his island worshipped Anacondrai, the fiercest Serpentine. He stole all of our elements so he could be powerful, but we got them back and got dragons and he tried to attack Ninjago City be we stopped him together, but Garmadon, Lloyd's father, had to be banished to another realm to pay the price. Does that make sense?" Andrew stared at him, then blinked with wide eyes. "Huh?" He said. Cole sighed. "We'll tell you about it later." Lloyd was still firing questions at Chen about why he didn't bring Garmadon back with him. Nya stopped between the two. "Lloyd, I know this is stressful for you, but we have to focus on what's going on now. Chen, is it true you've changed for the good side?" "Of course!" Chen stated. "I even have a notarized document!" He lifted up a sheet of paper, and Lloyd grabbed it. "IM GOOD" was scrawled onto it untidily with a red crayon. "This isn't notarized." Lloyd stated. "Your face isn't notarized!" Chen insulted. "How do we prove he's good or bad?" Jay asked. "The government doesn't split the world into good and evil, and although rules are specifically stated about criminals and war leaders, there's nothing about war leaders from within leading charges of armies of creatures some would consider mythological!" "How do you know about all this government stuff?!" Cole asked. "Wu told us about it when the government recognized us as people assisting their laws. You slept through it." "I did?" "Yeah. You drooled on my shoulder." "I believe we should give him a chance." Zane stated. "I sense he is honest about his new beginning." "See?!" Chen shouted. "Listen to the robot!" "Fine, we'll give him a chance." Lloyd growled. He turned around his head to Skylor. "Skylor," he began, "I'll leave it to you to watch over him. You make sure he does keep his word and be good, and if he begins stirring up trouble again, tell us." "Right." Skylor agreed. "Jay, let her touch you. She needs a bit of power to threaten him with." "Couldn't she touch Cole?!" Jay asked. "This element is Jay-exclusive property!" "I trust her to only use it when absolutely necessary." Jay sighed lightly. Skylor walked over and awkwardly put her hand on his shoulder; Jay looked away. Skylor and Chen walked towards the exit. Andrew stood next to the door, and Skylor smiled at him. "So you're Andrew?" She asked. "Yeah." Andrew confirmed. "Nice to meet you." She reached out her palm, and they shook hands. She continued walking off. Andrew silently noted she had a strong grip "Well, that was something else. Am I right, Kai?" Jay asked with a glance to his left, where Kai's bed lay. Kai's eyes were closed, and his heavy breathing could be heard as he dozed. "He slept through THAT?!" Nya asked in disbelief. "Poor guy." Cole said. "Those medications must have really worn him out." "Let's go back to the temple." Jay suggested. "I, for one, am beat. I'm ready to kick back and play some video games." "Yeah, perhaps we should leave." Lloyd agreed. "Skylor should have things under control." "Hey, wait a minute, Andrew." Cole paused. "Did you shake hands with Skylor?" "Yeah. Why?" Andrew asked suspiciously. "You were supposed to use your right hand, not your left." "Oh! My bad."
Yep, he did. I remember that from last time! He probably won Axl over with his noodles.

Apparently, he had walked into the kitchen as well. “Maybe Skylor will give us a discount, being friends and all!” Cole suggested. “She’s at the hospital, visiting Kai.” “Oh. Right.” Several minutes later, the ninja had driven up to the colorful building, where the irritating but catchy music played faintly as the multiple neon colors shone. The ninja pushed open the glass door to the coolly air-conditioned, bright building. They sat down at a table near the counter, where many unhealthily-colored foods rotated around on a conveyor belt. Cole, excited by the mouth-watering goodness of the steaming, well-cooked noodles, grabbed a bowl and a pair of chopsticks placed in front of him, and quickly shoveled food into his mouth. “Hey, hey, take it easy there, cowboy!” Jay cautioned noticed the speed of his consumption. “How can I help it?” Cole asked, muffled due to his full mouth. He swallowed, and his voice cleared as he declared: “These noodles are the best!” Suddenly, a man in red-and-purple robes with a funny hat popped out from behind the counter. “You can be sure of that!” Master Chen confirmed cheerfully. The ninja released yells of surprise and instinctively jumped back. “Master Chen?!” Lloyd shouted. “From the Tournament of Elements?!” “You know it! I’m back!” “But-but how?!” Nya stammered. “The same way Clouse did!” Chen confirmed. “I thought Clouse got out when Morro and Lloyd were messing with the Realm Crystal.” Cole pondered. “I did! But it sent me to a different realm.” Chen said. “There were, like, these knights, but they were all electronic, you know? Really weird. I found a teleporter thingamabob there, and used it to get back here!” “But shouldn’t you be a ghost?” Lloyd asked. “Possessed a mannequin, like last time! Duh!” Chen exclaimed. “But how did you get in the museum?” Jay asked, confused. “How did you get here without being stopped? How-” “So many questions!” Chen said. “Do I look like a . . . uh . . . something that give answers?! Do I?! Do I?! Huh?! Huh?!” “So . . . why isn’t he attacking us yet?” Jay wondered. “I’ve come to do good!” Chen announced. “Make noodles! Make rice! Even make rice noodles!” “I have my doubts.” Lloyd said suspiciously. “You’re about as trustworthy as Ronin.” “I am not!” Chen argued. “Who’s Ronin anyway? Anyway, if you don’t believe me, just ask Iggy!” Chen then placed a green, spiky object on the counter. Nya cringed. “Is that a . . . lizard?” Nya pondered. “No it’s not!” Chen said, as he began to give the creature a light squeeze. “She’s an iguana! Duh!” Looking at the iguana, he then cooed: “Don’t worry, little Iggy; she’s just a silly ninja who knows nothing about anything. She didn’t mean any harm. He looked up at Nya again. “How dare you call her a lizard?!” He shouted. “You hurt her feelings!” Andrew was trying hard—but failing—at muffling his laughs. Chen rose his fist into the air and looked at the ninja angrily. “Insult Iggy again, and things will get messy!” “Is it just me, or is he getting crazier all the time?” Jay whispered to Cole. “What?!” Chen exclaimed. “You think being stuck in the Departed Realm has made me crazy?!” “Well, yeah.” Cole admitted. Chen then flung a bowl of sushi directly to Cole’s face. A splat was heard. “Take that, you smelly potato! You’re nothing but a bowl of llama spit! Ha! So there.” Andrew couldn’t contain his emotions any longer. He then started roaring with laugher, falling onto the floor and pounding the ground. “See?” Chen asked. “My noodles are so superb, he’s filled with joy! Now, where’s Skylor?”
About that title . . . did you mean "master"? And iguanas are lizards.
It's debatable; in the show they both called it "Master Chen's Noodle House" and "Mister Chen's Noodle House." Well, I guess Chen didn't know that. =P

Chapter 13: The Lucky Chapter The Transformation “Those candles smell awful. I think my nose is gonna fall off.” Wu sighed at Andrew’s distasteful remark. “We are not focusing on the scent, young Andrew.” He stated. “You must focus on the power which lies inside you – the power which you must grow, build, and release. To find your strength, you must block out your other weaknesses, and focus on what lies inside you.” A couple silent moments fell, until Andrew piped up: “What lies in me is organs and bones, and my weakness is the stink of those candles.” Wu sighed once again. “Just try to channel your powers, all right?” He asked. Andrew tried to ignore the smell. He didn’t really understand how to uncover his powers, and the “meditation” didn’t seem to help. Suddenly, Andrew realized he DID feel something. Yes, there really was a feeling deep inside him – something powerful and amazing! A deep urge ached in his gut – which he then recognized to be hunger. Unfortunately, it was Cole’s night to cook, so he didn’t really have anything to look forward to. Obviously, what he was currently doing wasn’t working. “Perhaps it’ll come to me if I just THINK about the transformation. Andrew thought. Hence, Andrew tried to imagine the feeling. He thought about the idea of his bones shrinking and curving into new ways. He considered how it could feel if his muscles stretched and morphed. He imagined fur growing from his body suddenly. The visions were surprisingly vivid. Andrew opened his eyes from mediation. Of course, nothing had happened. This was a big waste of time, so Andrew asked Wu if he could leave. “Mrrow?” Andrew asked. Wu opened his eyes, and almost jumped from surprise. There, where Andrew used to be, was a small, white cat. “I can’t believe it! It actually worked! Look at me! This is amazing! Wow! This is so cool! My mind is blown! I have a tail! This is so weird!” Andrew shouted excitedly – however, it came out as: “Mrreow! Mew mew! Rreaw! Mew!” Andrew paused. Why was he meowing and not speaking English? “Andrew? Is that you?” Wu asked. “Yes, it is me! I turned into a cat! It’s amazing!” Andrew responded. However, once again, only cat noises came out. Wu looked at the feline with confusion. Suddenly, the door burst open. It was Nya, whom was wearing her suit with a panicked expression. “Somebody broke into the stronghold in Heroshi’s Labyrinth! We’ve got to get there – fast!” Wu quickly hopped up from where he was sitting and ran out the door. “Wait for me!” Andrew mewed as he ran out the door – and tripped, as he was not used to his new legs. Wu ran out to join the other ninja in their hectic scramble to grab weapons and run out the door. They didn’t notice the little white cat running with them. They divided katanas and sai between themselves, pulled up their masks, and then ran out the door. “Where’s Andrew?” Jay asked. “We have no time to worry about that! The Realm Crystal may be at stake! Ninja go!” He shouted as he spun into an Airjitzu rift and fell down to the vehicles below the floating temple. “Ninja go!” The others shouted as they did the same. They landed upon the desert ground safely, and began running towards their vehicles. “Augh!” Cole shouted. “Why is there a cat on my back?!” He pushed it off, and the cat flew off with a screech. Cole ran to his Rock Roader, too rushed to consider the oddness of the recent situation. The cat ran and hopped into the main part of the Sonic Raider where Lloyd began to close the cover. The engines roared and suddenly drove off speedily, leaving a storm of sand in the air behind them. “How long is the drive?” Cole asked. “It should take approximately thirteen minutes and thirty-two seconds, if all goes well.” Zane responded. “Aw, c’mon! That’s not nearly long enough!” Jay complained. “The guy will already HAVE the Realm Crystal by that time!” “Or gal!” Nya reminded. “It’s the best we can do, team.” Lloyd stated. “For most people, it would take a whole hour to get from the Sea of Sand to Hiroshi’s Labyrinth. We’re lucky to have such – ah-CHIEE!” He suddenly shouted. “What was that?” Jay asked. “It was – ah-CHIEE!” Lloyd shouted once more. “Is he . . . sneezing?” Cole asked. “That is the cutest sneeze ever!” Nya laughed. “Ah-CHIEE!” Lloyd sneezed. “Berry fuddy.” The team began roaring with laughter. “Man, what’s going on back there?!” Cole laughed. “Is there pollen in the Stealth Raider or something?!” “Bo! I don’t hab a bollen allerby!” Lloyd shouted. “Bi onby allerby I hab i’ a cab allerby!” The team laughed once more. “A WHAT allergy, Lloyd?” “A cab allerby!” “Sorry, I didn’t hear that! What is it again?” “A cab allerby!” “Come once more?” “A – ah-CHIEE! CAB allerby!” “A cab? Like a taxi?” “A CAB! It hab four legs and go meow!” “Could you repeat that?” “. . . You’re doing bat bintentionally, baren’t you?” Jay laughed. “Yes, I am doing it “bintentionally,” Lloyd. I didn’t know you were allergic to cats!” “Why would a cat be in the Stealth Raider?” Nya wondered. “Ah-CHIEE! I bon’t bow, but as soon as be bet to da dronghold, be bill bet bit bout!” Lloyd said. “Sorry Lloyd, but I didn’t understand a word you just said.” Cole noted. “I didn’t either, but I love it!” Jay exclaimed. “We are nearing the stronghold. We will solve the issue then.” Zane stated. The vehicles began to shake on the unstable ground as they sped through the jungle and vines smacked their windshields and blew away. A large building could be spotted in the distance of the jungle as the roaring engines began to soften whilst they slowed down. The ninja jumped out of their vehicles and ran towards the building, where a battle was already ongoing. A cloaked figure was jumping about the area, with some odd titanium weapon, shooting at the vast army of white nindroids, protecting the stronghold. The nindroids shot several laser blasts towards the figure, but the person turned his weapon sideways as all the lasers ricocheted right off and towards the nindroids, leaving some on the ground as sparks flew from the places of impact. The nindroids then pulled out silver swords and charged at the intruder, but he (or she) hopped around the area, jumping onto crates and avoiding the nindroid fighters. “Who IS this guy?” Jay wondered aloud. “It’s as if he’s already had training in martial arts!” “I don’t know, but he won’t be fighting for much longer!” Nya declared. “Let’s go!” On this, the ninja charged towards the stronghold, unsheathing their shining weapons. The intruder turned around to face them. “Oh, look.” He said in a fake-sounding electronic voice. “Here’s the ninja to join the fun! Let’s play.” Despite this, he suddenly ran left into a corridor inside the stronghold, away from the ninja’s sight. “Don’t let him get the Realm Crystal!” Lloyd shouted fiercely. “That thing is too powerful to fall into the wrong hands!” The ninja ran inside the stronghold and into the same corridor the villain did, in pursuit of him. “Yeah!” Cole shouted as they ran, their feet pounding against the metal floor with a nindroid army behind them. “Like Jay’s hands!” “Hey!” Jay laughed. “It’d be worse in YOURS! You’d use it to go to the cake realm to get free desserts!” “Is that so, zap-trap?” Cole responded jokingly. “You’d use it to go to the video-game realm to play video games all day!” “No, I wouldn’t!” Jay corrected. “I’d use it to go to the Starfarer realm, to meet Fritz Donnegan and become a Starfarer!” The two ninjas then laughed. “Boys!” Nya shouted aggressively. “We need to focus! We have no idea what that guy could throw at us, and we have to-” Nya suddenly paused. They had run into a room, and there, at the left wall of the room, stood the cloaked figure. The ninja barricaded the doorway. “Freeze!” Zane shouted. “And if you don’t, you will do so quite literally.” The figure was standing right by a large lever on the wall. “Of course!” The thing said in its fake voice. “I will stop right here, and put my hands –” he paused. He raised his arms towards the ceiling, but as he lifted his right arm, it pulled up the lever beside him. “-up.” He finished. Suddenly, all of the nindroids cocked their laser guns and aimed them towards the ninja. The ninja turned around. The nindroids were no longer good. All at once, the guns fired, and the ninja ran out of the way to the corners of the room. They then ran out of the other corridor at the other end, attempting to escape the looming army. The ninja raced through the hallways, dodging to rapidly firing lasers shooting all around. “Zane, watch out!” Jay shouted as a blast began to near his back. It struck Zane, but immediately bounced off towards the nindroid who shot it. The nindroid fell over as the rest of the army kept running by. “You must remember, Jay,” Zane stated. “I’m titanium – bulletproof.” He turned his head back to the army, when another last blast struck him into the face, and he fell over. “Zane!” Lloyd shouted as the titanium titan fell. “We have to keep moving!” Nya declared, even though she wore a horrified expression as well. “We can’t let them take all of us!” Regretfully, the ninja kept running, energized by the fear and worry pulsing within them. They soon saw the entryway where they had come through – they had run all around the building. Sunlight poured in, stronger than the artificial light from inside. The ninja charged towards the exit, running out before the nindroid army reached them. Right as they had all escaped, Cole hit a red button beside the exit and the doors of the stronghold suddenly shut, trapping all the nindroids inside. Muffled sounds of banging and clattering were heard. “Come on! We’ve got to get out of here!” Lloyd said as they ran towards their vehicles, left lying on the jungle ground. They each climbed into them, when Lloyd sneezed once more. “The cat AGAIN?!” Cole asked. “Geb oudda here!” Lloyd shouted as he grabbed an orange cat from behind his seat and tossed it out of the car. The cat landed on its feet with a screech. Lloyd pulled down the cover with the push of a button. The cat immediately jumped back onto the windshield and began to claw at it. “Bo abay!” Lloyd yelled to it. “What’s wrong with that cat?” Jay asked. “That doesn’t seem like normal behavior.” “Yeah!” Cole agreed. “It actually wants to GO to a human!” Jay laughed. “It might even come when you call it!” Nya looked slightly offended. “Cats are still nice!” She hopped off her motorbike towards the cat. The cat was still attempting to get into Lloyd’s vehicle, when Nya grabbed it. “The boys are right.” She noted. “There’s something odd about this cat. We can worry about it once we get to the temple, but considering how odd it’s acting, it seems wrong to leave it here.” “This isn’t just because you like cats, is it, Nya?” Lloyd asked. “Of course not!” Nya lied as she took the cat to her motorbike. “Like she said, we can worry about it later.” Cole said. “I’m not sure if the nindroids can use their technology to open the door or anything, so we should probably get out of here.” “Right.” Lloyd sniffed, his allergies still remaining lightly. “Let’s go.” The vehicles suddenly took off, driving (or flying) out of the labyrinth and towards the temple. * * * * * * * * * * * * “What about the Realm Crystal?” Wu asked. Lloyd gasped and struck his face with his hand. “How could we forget?! The Realm Crystal is still in danger!” Nya suddenly ran in with her Borg Technology™ laptop. “I’ve got the security footage of the stronghold right here!” “How did you get that?” Cole asked. “We’re the ones protecting the Crystal. We own responsibility to the stronghold.” The ninja stared hard at the screen. “Look!” Lloyd shouted. “There’s Zane!” Nya clicked something and the screen zoomed into a metal figure lying on the ground. “He’s not moving! What’s wrong with him?” Cole wondered worriedly. “It looks like he’s offline.” Lloyd stated. “Where are the nindroids?” Jay wondered. Nya clicked a few times. A couple different viewpoints of the stronghold were seen until one showed a close-up of the door. “Those fiends!” Jay gasped. “They used their lasers to cut through the door!” “That means we only have a bit of time before they attack Ninjago City.” Lloyd announced in worry. “What about the Realm Crystal? They must have stolen it since we locked them up in there!” Cole asked. Nya changed the camera to show the room where the Realm Crystal was held. “Wait . . . what?” Lloyd asked in disbelief. “They – didn’t steal the Crystal.” “Then what did they go in for?” Jay wondered.
Chapter 12 - Confusion "Does it look bad?" Kai groaned weakly. It did indeed look bad. The wound looked large and painful. Skylor resisted the feeling to cringe, and told her friend: "No. It's not too bad." Kai sighed, perhaps from relief. "Skylor . . ." he began, "what if I don't make it out of this place?" "Of course you'll make it out. The doctors here are experienced and will treat the wound well. I'm sure you make it out just fine." "But just in case - I'd like a little something to remember you by." Skylor finally figured out what Kai was attempting to insinuate. She gave a slight smile. "Oh." She said. Kai lifted his head from the soft pillow and Skylor moved hers down lower. The two lips- "I'm here!!" A voice shouted loudly as he kicked the swinging door open - Master Chen. "Where's my Sky-Sky?" * * * Chen stepped over two Kai's hospital bed, and began talking to himself. "Well, what do you know? Kai, that hot-headed fool, was the one who foiled all of my plans, and at the end, it's HIS fault I was banished! Oh yes, I've spent hours growing a hate and thirst for revenge for him, and now he's weak and vulnerable! Hee, hee! I wonder if I could-" The blade of a golden katana suddenly appeared dangerously close to Chen's throat. Lloyd held it firmly, and Chen looked up at him. "Was I talking aloud again?" He asked. Lloyd nodded, keeping focused and determined eye contact at the dangerous noodle maker. "Oh, dumplings." Chen swore. * * * Lloyd was still firing questions at Chen about why he didn't bring Garmadon back with him. Nya stopped between the two. "Lloyd, I know this is stressful for you, but we have to focus on what's going on now. Chen, is it true you've changed for the good side?" "Of course!" Chen stated. "I even have a notarized document!" He lifted up a sheet of paper, and Lloyd grabbed it. "IM GOOD" was scrawled onto it untidily with a red crayon. "This isn't notarized." Lloyd stated. "Your face isn't notarized!" Chen insulted. * * *

1: That's the idea. 2: Ikr, naughty Chen. 3: He's like a lawyer with the way he argues so well. Reply: Because you are actually as funny as me; you just don't realize it. And I'd be cringing from poor writing. My writing style is current shaky and it changes almost every time I write. I can hardly bear the first few chapters, and I know in a few short months I'll be looking at the quality of my current writing in disgust. So, really, I'd like to wait a bit before the idea of a novella becomes worth consideration.

I'd be classified as a Kailor fan. Although I found that hilarious!

Kai lifted his head from the soft pillow and Skylor moved hers down lower. The two lips- "I'm here!!" A voice shouted loudly as he kicked the swinging door open - Master Chen. "Where's my Sky-Sky?" Skylor suddenly turned around. Kai wore a face of extreme disappointment, a bit like a Saint Bernard. "Father?!" She exclaimed. "What are you doing here?! I thought you were banished to the Cursed Realm--and the Departed Realm!" "So maybe I was!" Chen exclaimed. "But how are things going for you? How's the restaurant doing?" "I was doing great before you got here." Skylor said crossly. "And the restaurant is doing fine." "Is it still Ninjago's number one noodle house?" "Er . . . about that . . ." Chen raised an eyebrow suspiciously. "It's very popular. It's Ninjago's nu. . ." Skylor's voice trailed off, but she continued too quietly to hear. "Come again?" Chen asked, exasperated. "It's Ninjago's number TWO noodle house." Chen gasped in horror. His iguana gasped in horror. Jay gasped for breath. The ninja had just ran into the hospital room, all panting heavily. "We tried to stop him, but he was so fast!" Jay exclaimed. "Even in that dress!" "It's not a dress, it's a ROBE!" Chen corrected. "Sheesh! Go to kindergarten!" "Somebody get him!" Nya shouted. "Wait!" Chen screamed. "I'm not here for EVIL, I'm here to do GOOD by restoring Master Chen's to Ninjago's number one noodle house!" "I highly doubt that." Lloyd stated. "You have a large evil background, and I can only imagine you'd want to come back for revenge." "I am one with the light side! I'm an innocent angel! No evil thought would enter my head for as long as - hold on! Is that Kai over there, wounded?!" "For as long as two seconds." Lloyd finished, unimpressed. Chen stepped over two Kai's hospital bed, and began talking to himself. "Well, what do you know? Kai, that hot-headed fool, was the one who foiled all of my plans, and at the end, it's HIS fault I was banished! Oh yes, I've spent hours growing a hate and thirst for revenge for him, and now he's weak and vulnerable! Hee, hee!

Lloyd nodded, keeping focused and determined eye contact at the dangerous noodle maker. "Oh, dumplings." Chen swore. "I thought I was scheming in my head, where nobody hears me. I suppose I just don't notice anymore; even Garmadon complained about-" Lloyd suddenly dropped the katana in surprise of his father's name. It fell down to Chen's feet, with the side of the blade landing. "Hey!" Chen shouted. "Watch it! You could have hurt my toesies!" "You've seen Garmadon?" Lloyd asked, surprised. "I thought he smashed in the Cursed Realm!" "If he did, I would too, but Dave mixed things up, and now there's a Departed Realm for those who depart, whether it be Ninjago, the weird place with the fire-and-ice animals, or the Cursed Realm! Remember last time?" "Why didn't you bring him with you?! He could have been with us right now!" "Eh, we just have a bitter past; it'd just feel awkward. Y'know what I'm saying?" "For the record, I have no clue what in Ninjago is happening." Andrew piped up from the back. "Oh, that's right!" Cole realized. "We never told you about Chen! Well, he's a noodle seller who's actually a villain, and he got a bunch of other elemental masters along with us to compete in a tournament where only one could remain. We eventually had to go against each other, and the losers slaved away in his noodle factory! There was also a giant snake, and the workers at his island worshipped Anacondrai, the fiercest Serpentine. He stole all of our elements so he could be powerful, but we got them back and got dragons and he tried to attack Ninjago City be we stopped him together, but Garmadon, Lloyd's father, had to be banished to another realm to pay the price. Does that make sense?" Andrew stared at him, then blinked with wide eyes. "Huh?" He said. Cole sighed. "We'll tell you about it later." Lloyd was still firing questions at Chen about why he didn't bring Garmadon back with him. Nya stopped between the two. "Lloyd, I know this is stressful for you, but we have to focus on what's going on now. Chen, is it true you've changed for the good side?" "Of course!" Chen stated. "I even have a notarized document!" He lifted up a sheet of paper, and Lloyd grabbed it. "IM GOOD" was scrawled onto it untidily with a red crayon. "This isn't notarized." Lloyd stated. "Your face isn't notarized!" Chen insulted. "How do we prove he's good or bad?" Jay asked. "The government doesn't split the world into good and evil, and although rules are specifically stated about criminals and war leaders, there's nothing about war leaders from within leading charges of armies of creatures some would consider mythological!" "How do you know about all this government stuff?!" Cole asked. "Wu told us about it when the government recognized us as people assisting their laws. You slept through it." "I did?" "Yeah. You drooled on my shoulder." "I believe we should give him a chance." Zane stated. "I sense he is honest about his new beginning." "See?!" Chen shouted. "Listen to the robot!" "Fine, we'll give him a chance." Lloyd growled. He turned around his head to Skylor. "Skylor," he began, "I'll leave it to you to watch over him. You make sure he does keep his word and be good, and if he begins stirring up trouble again, tell us." "Right." Skylor agreed. "Jay, let her touch you. She needs a bit of power to threaten him with." "Couldn't she touch Cole?!" Jay asked. "This element is Jay-exclusive property!" "I trust her to only use it when absolutely necessary." Jay sighed lightly. Skylor walked over and awkwardly put her hand on his shoulder; Jay looked away. Skylor and Chen walked towards the exit. Andrew stood next to the door, and Skylor smiled at him. "So you're Andrew?" She asked. "Yeah." Andrew confirmed. "Nice to meet you." She reached out her palm, and they shook hands. She continued walking off. Andrew silently noted she had a strong grip "Well, that was something else. Am I right, Kai?" Jay asked with a glance to his left, where Kai's bed lay. Kai's eyes were closed, and his heavy breathing could be heard as he dozed. "He slept through THAT?!" Nya asked in disbelief. "Poor guy." Cole said. "Those medications must have really worn him out." "Let's go back to the temple." Jay suggested. "I, for one, am beat. I'm ready to kick back and play some video games." "Yeah, perhaps we should leave." Lloyd agreed. "Skylor should have things under control." "Hey, wait a minute, Andrew." Cole paused. "Did you shake hands with Skylor?" "Yeah. Why?" Andrew asked suspiciously. "You were supposed to use your right hand, not your left." "Oh! My bad."
The parts that I found very funny . . which, as you can see, are extensive. Who is Dave? And did Cole make that part up about using the different hands to cover up his question, or did he really not realize that Skylor now had Andrew's element?
Chapter 12 - Confusion "Does it look bad?" Kai groaned weakly. It did indeed look bad. The wound looked large and painful. Skylor resisted the feeling to cringe, and told her friend: "No. It's not too bad." Kai sighed, perhaps from relief. "Skylor . . ." he began, "what if I don't make it out of this place?" "Of course you'll make it out. The doctors here are experienced and will treat the wound well. I'm sure you make it out just fine." "But just in case - I'd like a little something to remember you by." Skylor finally figured out what Kai was attempting to insinuate. She gave a slight smile. "Oh." She said. Kai lifted his head from the soft pillow and Skylor moved hers down lower. The two lips- "I'm here!!" A voice shouted loudly as he kicked the swinging door open - Master Chen. "Where's my Sky-Sky?" * * * Chen stepped over two Kai's hospital bed, and began talking to himself. "Well, what do you know? Kai, that hot-headed fool, was the one who foiled all of my plans, and at the end, it's HIS fault I was banished! Oh yes, I've spent hours growing a hate and thirst for revenge for him, and now he's weak and vulnerable! Hee, hee! I wonder if I could-" The blade of a golden katana suddenly appeared dangerously close to Chen's throat. Lloyd held it firmly, and Chen looked up at him. "Was I talking aloud again?" He asked. Lloyd nodded, keeping focused and determined eye contact at the dangerous noodle maker. "Oh, dumplings." Chen swore. * * * Lloyd was still firing questions at Chen about why he didn't bring Garmadon back with him. Nya stopped between the two. "Lloyd, I know this is stressful for you, but we have to focus on what's going on now. Chen, is it true you've changed for the good side?" "Of course!" Chen stated. "I even have a notarized document!" He lifted up a sheet of paper, and Lloyd grabbed it. "IM GOOD" was scrawled onto it untidily with a red crayon. "This isn't notarized." Lloyd stated. "Your face isn't notarized!" Chen insulted. * * *
