(Lloyd POV)
It all started by flying.
I was called to the deck of the bounty that was sailing over the waters of the ocean where I found the familiar red ninja jump down in front of me. I almost screamed, but I didn't since I didn't want to show fear from something so little and humorus. Instead I laughed. "So, why was I called out here again?'' The fire ninja stood up straight. ''We are going to have a race.'' He said. I was confused for a second. ''What kind of race?'' I asked. ''See who can fly the highest of course, I think it is a perfect way for us to train with flight.'' He smiled and backed up to summon his elemental dragon. I didn't think it was a good idea, if my uncle found out that we were doing something that wasn't that productive...My thoughts were interupted by Kai. ''Your thinking it, arn't you?'' I jumped. ''What do you mean?'' Kai laughed, his dragon did too. Or was that a cough? Did elemental dragons laugh? ''Your thinking that sensei will find out that we arn't training. Honestly this is training, in my view anyway.'' I glanced up too him. ''How do you know I was thinking that?'' He laughed again like I was joking. ''You have that look on that face when you have second thoughts, you always look like your staring into another world, honestly we won't get in trouble, you've always put to much stress on yourself. ''He lifted his dragon into the air and hovered, waiting for me. I still didn't think this was a good idea but...I ignored it, he was right. I summoned my dragon and lifted off next to him.
''Alright!'' Kai began clapping his hands together. ''First one to make it above the clouds is the winner. We start on the deck.'' He shifted his dragon so my dragon could have some room. ''On three!'' I grabbed the reins. ''One...two...three!'' He zoomed off to the sky. I flew up after him. We were high up now, almost to the clouds. I heaved my dragon forward up to Kai's level. I heard Kai yell over the winds of the sky. ''Your not beating me today!'' He grinned staring back up. I let out a small chuckle moving forward. I pass him quickly, but then I hear him scream something, but I couldn't make it out. I hear a whistling sound. Just as I was about to fly out of the way a object hit my head knocking me out into pitch darkness.
