The cold wind blew through the air, leaving an icy chill to those exposed to it. Pythor shivered as the frigid cold reached him, his breath visible in the thin air, and as he turned to his fellow serpent brethren, he could tell they felt the same. He came to a halt, to realize hiding was useless, "This is pointless! We shouldn't be on our ways back into the underground tombs of Ninjago..."

Skales was the first to speak, "But, Pythor, the air issss to brisssk, to travel back, sssome of usss might not make it! Besssides, if we were to ssstrike them back, they'd have those dragons!"

Pythor took his second-in-commands words to consideration, Skales did have a point, if they really were to return to Ninjago one might catch frostbite and their reinforcements will be numbered, not to mention the ninja could just call upon dragons to blast them back to next Tuesday. Though, the Anocandrai didn't dare have an option of giving up, he turned to his men, a serious look in his magenta eyes, "Well, we're just going to have to make the best of it, because giving up, is not an option."

He turned around and began to slither from where they had came, Skales glanced at the other Serpentine and heaved a sigh, "We've got no choice but to follow the snake king..." The other snakes exchanged weak glances, but did as they were told, upon moving back towards Ninjago.

Kai awoke with a loud yawn, stretching his arms as he heard the call of morning, a Howler Dragon had woken him up. He groaned and got out of bed to look out the window, he saw the others already up and at them, Jay was cooking up breakfast with a lightning dragon, Zane was meditating with an ice dragon, Nya was showing tricks to the fire dragons, Lloyd was being shown around by Andrea, Kai's older sister. He smiled and recalled to two weeks ago, when he had first found them, that was also the time when he reached his Dragon potential and restored the peace, now that Garmadon has fled, as well as the Serpentine, the peace had not stirred since. It was all thanks to Kai, and his teammates, not to mention his sisters, which he so quickly grew fond off, just the other day they were teaching him how to fish in the lake, and he almost had it when he nearly got swallowed whole by an entire Sea Dragon, who so happened to be doing his morning routine of catching food. He also learned how to control his fire more fluently, but he ended up burning some trees and it took a few ice dragons to put them out. All in all, things have gotten good for them, not to mention Sensei decided to land the Bounty high up on top of the Dragon palace, which he could see below from his bedroom window, and they made this place their current home it has seemed.

"Hey, Kai!" Jay cried from below. Kai looked down and smiled at his fellow lightning friend, "What's up Jay?"

"The sky!" Jay threw a pair of roasted sausages in the air, "and these delicacies, heads up!"

Kai eagerly jumped out the window and caught some air, turning into his Dragon form in the blink of an eye, he caught the two sausages in his mouth and swooped down next to Jay, swallowing the meat whole. "Mm, not bad, though I wonder, can you make steak? I've always been fond of that."

Jay thought for a moment then nodded, "Ok! Sure." Kai thanked him and looked around, upon seeing the others, except Sensei and...

He sighed, "Wheres Cole now..."

As for the earth ninja, he was buried deep beneath the sheets of his own bed, obviously in a deep sleep or in the middle of a great dream. Cole awoke in his conscious, looking around at all the land before him, but instead of grassy green, they were all made of ice cream, and the hills were coated with chocolate frosting and whipped cream with bright red cherries on top. The delicious land he saw before him made his mouth water, he smiled and ran excitingly towards the ground, letting himself fall in its icy goodness. He snarfed down whatever he could, with no one to stop him, he had no limits against these delicious ice cream hills, he nearly stuffed himself when he saw...it. He dropped the cone he held in his hand and stared at it in awe, it was the most beautiful pastry he had ever seen in his life, the chocolate frosting and strawberry toppings seeming to call out his name, and with each step he took towards it, he couldn't help himself. "CAKE!" he screamed, while running towards the pastry with open arms. Though once he reached close range, the cake seemed to hiss at him, making him fall back. The cake spread a pair of green framed dragons wings and took for the skies, and Cole couldn't help but run after it, "Wait where are you going?! COME BAAACK!"

But he was stopped by a loud noise, someone was calling him, and it echoed through his entire head, the fantasy around him began to fade, and he opened his eyes to face the irritated look of Kai, "COLE, WAKE UP!"

Cole sprang up in his bed, in cold sweat, first, he looked around him to find that it had been a dream, and second he looked at Kai and began to rant, "W-Why'd you wake me up!?" Kai shook his head, "Why wouldn't I? Its like 10:00 in the morning." Cole's eyes shrank, he looked outside to see the others already eating up their breakfast, had he really been out the whole morning? "U-Uh," he began, looking at Kai nervously.

"Yeah. Anyway, come on, Jay made breakfast and I reckon your hungry after all that dreaming," Kai stated. As if on cue, Cole's stomach spoke for itself, the fire ninja smirked, "I take that as a yes."

The meal Jay prepared was not that bad, though it wouldn't have touched everyone as much as Zane's delicacies, it still wasn't that bad at all. "Jay, when did you ever learn to cook?" asked Andrea.

Jay thought while munching on a sausage, "Well, I was only a teenager back then and well-"

"Jay, your still a teenager," Lily implied. Jay paused and swallowed, smiling like a goof, "Oh yeah, hehe, my bad. I don't know I guess I just taught myself." The others rolled their eyes, Nya only chuckled, she loved it when Jay made jokes. As for Cole, he only remained silent at the table, eating only a little before dozing off again. It was Zane that finally snapped him back to reality, the team leader glanced around wildly, "H-Huh, wha."

"Cole, your strange behavior it is confusing me an awful a lot, why are you dozing off in the middle of breakfast?" Zane asked. At first, Cole didn't answer, but when Zane kept tapping his cheek over and over so he wouldn't nod off, he just groaned and said, "Alright, alright. Just cut it out." The ninja of ice asked him again and for a moment Cole hesitated, "Well...I don't know, I guess I didn't get much sleep, thanks to SOMEONE." He shot a glare at Kai who was just wolfing down some steak, when he finally looked up to see Cole he was confused, "What?"

Zane of course knew this wasn't the case because for sure he had calculated how much sleep Cole got and it was not less enough for Cole to say that he hadn't slept last night, "Cole, I'm serious, why are you acting this way?" For a long time there was silence between them until Cole finally answered, "I...I just had a weird dream..."

"How so?" the ice ninja asked, intrigued to hear more. Cole began to explain all about the ice cream hills and pastry lands, when he finally got to the part about the dragon cake that only puzzled Zane further. "A Dragon cake?" Cole nodded, Zane thought, "How peculiar..."

"What do you think it means?" Cole asked, and Zane could only think on this one, he heard of other weird dreams as such, like one time, Kai told him he had a dream about giant sand snakes in a sea of sand, Jay once recalled to have a dream on vampires and wolves in broad daylight, but he had never heard one say they had a dream about a cake growing a pair of dragon wings and flying off as their dream began to come to an end. "I sincerely, don't know, perhaps you could ask someone else if they understand?" Zane asked.

Cole glanced around the table and felt suddenly small, who else would know about these things? He wasn't even sure. Though, he didn't expect Andrea to overhear the twos conversation, and so she called out from her side of the table, "Dragon cake?"

Cole instantly began to blush harder then ever before, and everyone that had heard Andrea was now looking at him. Cole hid his face, but only Andrea kept talking, "I think I have an explanation for that."

To this, Cole pushed away his embarrassment and spoke up, "Wait you do?"

"Of course, it means that you're bound to become a dragon soon, just like Kai," Andrea implied. The others looked at him, and now Cole was even more embarrassed, but he couldn't help but think about what she said, he was going to become a dragon, he already knew that from a few days ago, when they had met on the roof at midnight, and the last piece of the prophecy wrote what was to become of him, so, the dream was a sign of this, but one question was clear in his head: when?

The snakes soon came to a clearing and Pythor looked through the clouding mist, once the fog broke away, the land ahead was very visible, some rocky canyons were not far off, just nearly at the horizon where they would find the ninjas at their base. He smiled, "Boys...we've reached land." The other snakes panted as they continued to walk, their feet hurting, but Pythor only lead them on, one thing was clear, he would get back at those ninja, dead or alive, even if it happened to be the last thing he would do.
