Disclaimer: I don't own Ninjago sadly, only my story idea and ocs.

Hello fellow Ninjago fans! Wow this is getting thrilling as I type this but anyways, this is an idea I had for quite a while and now I'm ready to share it and my first fanfic with you guys! I was inspired with the fact that Ninjago has elements from Japan but with a modern twist, so I wanted to add onto that by using Japanese mythology. With new episodes coming soon I felt like I really had to get my butt off the couch and on to my desk chair and get to work. When the episodes come I will incorporate it into my story, but I've blabbing on for too long! Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Ninjago: Legend Reborn!


Prologue

Darkness. That would be the first thing you would see if you could walk into the crumbling castle's throne room. Darkness looming over six warriors, struggling to catch what little breath they had left after fighting an unfair battle. Demonic yellow eyes and a white, wicked smile pierced the dark body's shadow, it illuminated the six pathetic humans that had wasted their meaningless lives and for what? To fight for a world that didn't know of their existence, for freedom they had lost during their first attempt at a rebellion of justice? Pathetic.

The youngest of the warriors forced himself up, using his sword to lean on. All the while the poor boy was shaking fiercely from exhaustion, this only brought pleasure to the giant demon as he finally spoke, "Boy" he spoke with a deep echoing voice, "why do you try to stand and look me in the eye?"

"You have tortured many beings, you broke the balance and destiny! Why shouldn't I fight against another corrupted being w-who limited us and enslaved all who were different?!"

"ENOUGH!" And with that the demon merely flicked the boy with his dark red claws, it was enough to send him flying until he hit head first into a column. "I, along with my fallen comrades, enslaved you because you put us in a cage! Because you limited all that power that we had inside us! Inside me!"

With every scream the giant demon poked the boy with his claw, harder and harder into the unstable column. "Your precious spirit savior doomed you from the start when she stepped out of line! You, along with all the pathetic freaks in this castle that she 'rescued and gave sanctuary to,'could have just accepted your what little things your life had to offer and you wouldn't be on the edge of death!"

The demon was now clutching the boy that now glowed with a green tainted aura, his life force, in his clawed hand. Holding him close enough to see his pointed teeth he whispered, "She didn't tell you did she? I didn't break free of my prison by brute force or dark magic this time. Seraphina released me of her own free will."

The young boy was shaking harder than before, tears welled up in his eyes and dripped down his now horrified face. " N-no. She w-wouldn't.. Seraphina l-loves us and sacrificed so much for us. No matter what happened to her sh-she…i-it's not true. No! It's not true! No, no, no, NO!"

"SILENCE!" the demon bellowed, crushing the boy even harder. " She did release me! Even though she knew of the consequences of my possible return, your Seraphina just went ahead and foolishly-"

"Oliver!" both the demon and Oliver turned their heads toward the source of the sound.

"Se-Seraphina?" Oliver choked out, and there she was. Seraphina, the ruler of the collapsing castle stood panting and tired, wearing a mess of what was her dress. It was torn and tainted from the swings and hits of weapons and dark magic, while her long, dark curls were loosened and had sections of hair covering her face. She was almost unrecognizable, if it had not been for her pink curl and her crown housing a small pink gem, she would have looked like she was with the enemy's army.

"Onryō," she said taking a step closer, "put him down. Now."

"You must be joking!" Onryō cackled out, "You brought me back and now you think you can just send me away?! You are no savior! You are a coward! You run and hide from the inevitable! When the times comes to fight you don't finish it! You just seal me away and this time you brought me out because the peace and quiet bored you, didn't it?! Answer me, savior!"

With the final demand hanging in the air, she simply replied, "Look at your hand, Onryō."

Looking at his free the demon dropped Oliver in shock. It was disintegrating! Faster and faster, the disintegration spread like a plague up his arm and continued to the rest of his body. The giant demon shrieked in pain and agony as his body soon became a black swirling tornado. It spun faster and faster as a black hole from the ground opened up, sucking the particles of Onryō into its dark depths until his screams fell into a loud silence.

It was over, he was sealed away once more. Seraphina turned and ran toward Oliver, holding the boy tightly in her arms. "Oliver, are you alright?"

"Seraphina? D-did you d-destroy….?"

She simply shook her head. " Don't worry about him anymore child. We won't be here when he comes back."

A soft chime rang through Oliver's ears, followed by six more. Despite the stinging pain, he looked down and saw the gem from his choker, along with a pink one, had fallen off of his neck. How? Only he could take it off if he wanted too but he didn't have the strength to even reach and…

"Oliver, look at me."

At that moment he instantly regretted it. She was dissolving, just like Onryō! " Seraphina! You're..but why aren't you in pain and screaming? What did you do?"

"Look at yourself and the others." She said with tears welling up in her gentle eyes. Sure enough, the five fallen humans and Oliver were dissolving just like Onryō had. Only…there was no pain and they were going up as brighter particles, gently and peacefully.

" Look up at the skylight Oliver, do you see the stars?" Seraphina said and received a simple nod from the young boy. "Make a wish."

"A wish?" he questioned, of all the times to ask something so childish. Yet the stars were getting closer and relieved his pain even more.

"My only wish…would be to have a mother like you there for me." With that final wish Seraphina, Oliver, and the other five warriors flew into the shining holes of the night sky leaving behind a final whisper.

"You can't wish for something you already have."


And cut! Wow! That was thrilling! Now I know there might be some confusion as to what's going, BUT this is the prologue. This is set not only before the actually story, but also at a certain time. I'm not going to give that information out since there's a chance of spoilage and I wanna keep you guys on your toes until the next official chapter.

As for the update schedule I'm going back to school soon, this is my last week of summer!( Insert audience boo sound) I know it stinks plus there's a possibility some relatives are staying over next weekend, and guess who has to keep the little ones entertained.(points to myself) Yeah I don't mind though but anyways I'll try to update a chapter on Saturdays or Sundays , mainly cuz I'm a good girl an like to get my work done so it's not haunting me at night.

Anyways it's late as I'm finishing up this chapter and I still have to finish the title art cover, just a few details. So I'll put this up in the afternoon when I'm well rested and energized.

Until then, God is good, all the time. All the time, God is good.
