*snip* “It’s isn’t,” said Rowena, “’Beware the Claws of Night, beware the destined two; for in your final hour, your claws will betray you; Tom of Chaos, tangling laws unsaid, too many claws, too many threads; Tribe of mountains, tribe of forests, tribes of sand, cliff and sky; three to form the Claws of Night, one to watch and not to fight, and one last final clan of sky, to give guidance when war draws nigh.’” “Why do all prophecies have to be so cryptic?” Cole asked sarcastically. “Can’t the ones who have them just say, ‘Hey, dudes, something bad is going happen and its this so go do this so it doesn’t happen.” Nya allowed herself a smirk. “No one would take them seriously. Mysterious, spooky poems, on the other hand, are more effective and dramatic.” “In any case,” Rowena interrupted, “Does the prophecy mean anything to either of you?” Right, there are more werecat tribes... 0.0
I feel you, Cole.

Nya slowly shook her head, “No…?” She shrugged, “‘Tom of Chaos’? ‘Claws of Night’? I can’t make heads or tails of it.”

“You better believe I’m coming,” Rowena confirmed, “Those cats’ll tear you to shreds if I’m not there to stop them!” “I find your lack of confidence…disturbing.” Cole muttered. Nya smacked him on the shoulder playfully. “Stop quoting Star Farer! We have work to do.” * As the three disappeared from sight, a small, lithe feline slid out of the shadows. She glaring at where the humans had been with her bright amber eyes. Once she was certain they were gone, the cat gracefully leapt up onto the box the she-human had opened. She carefully, silently began searching through the contents of the box. * * * Zane nodded silently as he did as she said. Artfully, the nindroid brought the airship down to the teashop’s courtyard. Once they’d landed, Cole said, “You three look for Lloyd’s package, I’ll stay here with the ship.” Rowena nodded, “Indeed. Zanee, Nya, let’s go, nobody’s getting any younger.” The two ninja followed the older woman out of the Destiny’s Bounty into the bright, afternoon sunlight. The tea shop itself was not in the best condition, unlike when they’d left. The doors had been ripped from their hinges and several of the windows were shattered. As the three entered the shop, they found countless jars of tea lay shattered on the wood floor with their contents strewn everywhere. Nya huffed in disgust. “Stupid werecats.” Zane’s eyes took on a blue glow as he scanned his surroundings. “I don’t believe there are any werecats on the premises but there were some here recently.” AYYYY, your inner Star Wars fan is revealing itself! xD
Cole: "GET OUTTA MY COMIC BOOKS, CAT! "
Especially you.
NOT THE TEA! Wu's gonna be heartbroken. ;-;
In all seriousness, good writing! I'm happy to see more parts for CoN!

The team was on edge. Kai was gone. Jay was gone. Lloyd and Misako were missing. Nekoyama werecats were hunting them. And they still knew very little about the whole ordeal. Their morale had risen with the discovery of the padded suits and Rowena’s information on the Nekoyama but they were still tense and frustrated. In the mean time, Sensei Wu had, reluctantly, left for the Domu Library in hopes that he might learn more about the Nekoyama. The remaining ninja, plus Rowena, had stayed and were currently high above Ninjago City, on the Bounty. “Are you sure you don’t know anything else about the Nekoyama, Rowena?” Nya asked as she looked her boxes of belonging. The two women, and Cole, were in the bright living room of the Bounty. Since is was plausible that they’d be spending a good deal of time in the ship, they had begun unpacking some of the boxes. “Nothing helpful, no,” Rowena shook her head, “but speaking of which, though, did Lloyd tell the rest of you about the prophecy?” Nya looked up abruptly and turned away from the box toward Rowena, “What? A prophecy?” She frowned. “Tell me you’re joking. Please tell me that’s a joke.” “It’s isn’t,” said Rowena, “’Beware the Claws of Night, beware the destined two; for in your final hour, your claws will betray you; Tom of Chaos, tangling laws unsaid, too many claws, too many threads; Tribe of mountains, tribe of forests, tribes of sand, cliff and sky; three to form the Claws of Night, one to watch and not to fight, and one last final clan of sky, to give guidance when war draws nigh.’” “Why do all prophecies have to be so cryptic?” Cole asked sarcastically. “Can’t the ones who have them just say, ‘Hey, dudes, something bad is going happen and its this so go do this so it doesn’t happen.” Nya allowed herself a smirk. “No one would take them seriously. Mysterious, spooky poems, on the other hand, are more effective and dramatic.” “In any case,” Rowena interrupted, “Does the prophecy mean anything to either of you?” I wonder what the prophecy means, who it's about, and what crazy awesome events will happen because of it. Great new parts!

Looking forward to the next few parts! Btw, sorry, i haven't been on in the last month.

Let's be honest here; this story is bricking horrible. I portrayed Lloyd as a limp noodle. Jenna is creepy. Night Wolf was literally the second worst villain I've ever created. Sheng is--actually, I'm going to miss her, honestly. I had no plan for it, I literally just wrote as I went a long. Literally, not figuratively. Anything that's filled with boring characters and written the same way the Star Wars sequels were, with no plan, is generally pretty bad. I stopped writing this pathetic thing a good long while ago and I intend to keep it that way. Permanently. I lost interest in the story and I've lost interest in Ninjago, for the most part. What was it Kylo Ren (I hate him, too, for the record; the dude is creepy on so many levels) once said? "Let the past die. Kill it, if you have to." Yeah. That's what I'm doing here, with Claws of Night. {JAMMERS! -Tigress- ONLY!} LordTigressI have to be honest, some of CoN, was "inspired" by Roots of Earth and I did use some of its concepts. I am really sorry for doing that, and I hope you'll forgive me. I know there's that quote; "Imitation is the highest form of flattery," or whatever, but I was wrong to do so and I apologize.

That's kinda harsh if you ask me... Honestly both the show and other fan fictions have portrayed Lloyd similar to how you have if I'm remembering right. How exactly is she creepy? I suppose that's up to your judgement... So will I. There's nothing wrong with that. That works for some writers. But if it's a method you don't prefer I understand. I actually have enjoyed watching the sequels personally. Though I know they aren't perfect. That's totally up you and I can understand why you wouldn't want to continue something you no longer have any interest in. ( I personally like Kylo Ren as a character... But it's ok if you don't. ) Ok, you do that... But if I may be so bold to say; I think this is quite unfortunate. Unfortunate that this story won't have an ending, though few long fan fictions ever get lucky enough to have one anyway I guess. So that is fine I suppose. But it is also unfortunate that you seem to view this story quite negatively now. I know the feeling, it's what kept me paralyzed in my efforts to edit an original story I wrote last year. I haven't finished editing it and I've judged myself quite harshly over it. But, I don't think you or me need to do that... I think, we can learn from our past writing, but I don't think it's worth the pain to be ashamed of it, though that is an extremely hard thing to say. In fact, I don't know if it's possible and I don't know if you feel the same, but I really hope that someday I can find a way to look with fondness at my old writing. And just know that I did really enjoy this fan fiction, I mean it. And honestly I was even inspired by it. Anyway... I hope all goes well with your future writing projects.

Awww, Neko!! D: *runs in and gives you a big hug* I'm sorry you've lost interest in the story and in Ninjago. But please, don't be too hard on yourself. I know that feeling of self-loathing when you look back at something you created and say to yourself, "WHAT THE BRICK WAS THAT". The thing is, you had fun creating it while you did and it helped you grow as a writer. That's what really matters. I myself am still fond of your story, but I understand. And it's OK. It gave you and other people joy while it did.
{JAMMERS! -Wolfpaw- ONLY!} Aww, it's OK! You didn't mean any harm and I don't mind. Don't worry about it at all!

Uh... I wasn't planning on replying to...well, anything, but lemme get something straight real quick-- I didn't post that to throw a pity-party for myself. I've come to terms with CoN's fate and everything I said of it as supposed to be light-hearted and funny. I forgot to add the proper emotes, though, so admittedly, it looks more boo-hoo, cry-me-a-river than I wanted. XD Anyway. I appreciate your sympathy, but it's far misplaced, for the record.

Okay, first of all I'm back. Second, this story was freakin awesome. If you don't want to keep going on with it I understand, but I actually loved it, and will totally read more. lol But I totally get you.
