Disclaimer: I do not own Ninjago
The land of Ninjago was peaceful. After the destruction caused by Lord Garmadon and the Sons of Garmadon, the people of ninjago decided to rebuild again, including the ninja helping. They didn't stop with their rounds though, and kept an eye out for anymore members of the Sons of Garmadon. Harumi might be gone, but that doesn't mean the others won't be there to avenge her...
Lloyd sighed, looking over the city from atop of the parking garage. He found this place nice for some reason. It was tall, out on the edge of the city so he could see most of it, and it allowed him to get most of his vehicles in. Well, the ones that fit anyway.
He looked around and was scanning all the leftover debris. It wasn't as bad as the Devourer, but...it seemed to hurt more. His father returning as pure evil, his friends almost dying...and Harumi.
He swallowed the lump in his throat. Every time he thought about her...it just hurt more and more. He wasn't sure if it was the heartbreak, or her dying. Probably both. He felt hollow, and vulnerable. He let their enemy get too close, and toyed with his heart. He loved her, but...she didn't return the feeling.
"Was it really love though? What about her made me attracted to her?" That was something Lloyd was trying to figure out. Every time he wrapped his head around it, he just...unravel, and he was back to square one.
He sighed and sat up, stretching. "Maybe I should have grabbed my car instead of the bike. This thing kills my back..." He took a deep breath and looked over the city. The sun was setting low. He hit a button on the bike and a voice com came up. "Everyone be alert. Sun is going down."
"Which means the bad guys are waking up. Me and Zane have downtown." Kai's voice rang over the come.
"I'm covering Central and Main." Cole wasn't far behind.
"I'm surrounding the outskirts, and Jay has the sky." Nya said.
"Jay?" Lloyd asked. The com kicked on, but it sounded like someone tripped and crashed.
"Sorry!" Jay's energy filled voice came over. "Still working on my mini-jet! (Stupid wrench...). I'll keep a lookout in the bounty."
Lloyd smirked. "That's fine. I'll just do my scouts around the city, check out the South-side."
"Be careful out there Lloyd. The Sons of Garmadon still like to roam around there. Call for backup if you see them." Cole told him. "Last thing we need is them going after our leader...again."
Lloyd nodded. "Right. See you all later. Be safe. Ninja, go."
"Aw, come on Lloyd, with feeling this time! Ninja-g-! *crash* (Gah! Stupid toolbox, why are you on the floor?!)" Lloyd could hear everyone laugh at Jay. He couldn't help but chuckle himself.
"Be safe everyone." He turned his com off and started his bike up. They were right, he needed to be careful. No time to be a big shot hero and avenge someone.
Kai and Zane were rolling down the street. Kai was bobbing his head to the song blasting on his radio, when Zane's voice cut in.
"Kai, perhaps it is best you do not play your music so loud while patrolling?"
"Aw, come on Zane! It adds to the mood!" He boasted.
"Yes, it does. But not when we are ninja. Our element of surprise helps us in some cases. It doesn't help much when you play cop music though."
Kai sighed and turned it off. "Fiiiine. I just don't like riding in silence. It gets boring."
"Fair enough. Would you like to discuss the recent police reports so we can know what to expect?" Zane asked.
Kai rolled his eyes. "Sure, lay it on me bro."
"Some break ins have occurred in the past few days, basic robbery of items. A new museum opened, and security is still thin. There have been drag races on main, I will send that to Cole, and-" The timing couldn't have been better when their alarm went off.
"That's a break-in! The museum! Let's go!" Kai revved up his bike and they sped off.
It was a rather large group going through the museum, at least five of them. They moved through, scanning for something. They ignored everything else. They got to the final room and the leader stopped them. Ahead was a scroll in a glass case. It was old. The edges were lined with red and gold, wooden handles on the end to scroll it out. They went over and broke the glass, not caring about the alarm.
"We have it, let's get going. The Alpha is waiting for us." They all turned and were going for the entrance. As they got to the main foyer, Kai and Zane pulled up outside and ran in.
"Stop right there, crimi-! Huh?" They stopped, getting a good look at the thieves.
They were wearing black motorcycle jumpsuits, but on their heads were full headed dragon masks, each one a different color. The leader, with a dark green one, gripped the scroll tight. "All of you ,stop them! I'll get the scroll to the Alpha!" He stepped behind the group and took a sharp left to another exit.
Zane hit a button below his ear. "We need back up at the museum!"
"Zane, go after him! I can hold them off until help gets here! Notify the police too!" Kai's fists lit on fire and he charged the group.
Zane was hesitant, but he turned. Kai was a hot head, but he knew when he bit off more than he could chew...or he would go down choking, it was 50/50 with him. Zane got outside as he heard a motorcycle take off onto the main road. He got on his own bike...
And the window above him broke as a figure landed on the road next to him and...took off on all fours, like an animal, and at an alarming rate as well. Zane was still for a moment, then took off.
"They're heading onto the main highway!" Zane exclaimed over the com. Lloyd was already speeding down that way.
"I'm heading there now! Who's closer the museum?" Lloyd asked.
"I'm heading there now!" Nya yelled over the com. "I trust Kai to handle it, but he might need help!"
"Cole, what's your position?" Lloyd asked. The Earth ninja was supposed to be covering the main highway.
"Sorry. Got caught helping the police with the drag racers. They heard the call and are sending some your way and to the museum!"
"Alright." Lloyd was riding when he saw the speeding biker...wearing the dragon mask. "That's not normal." Lloyd thought. He sped after them.
The biker looked behind him and saw Lloyd gaining on him. He sped up and took an off ramp, but it led to a dead end that wasn't fixed yet.
"He's got himself in a corner! I'm catching him!" Lloyd spend up and was ready to his the tether button to grab the perp and the bike before the end, which was coming up quick. "He's not slowing down...is he gonna jump it!?" No sooner that Lloyd had thought that when the perp cut the bike off. It slid, and when it was a half inch away from the edge, he jumped, going for the nearest building. He landed on it and started to scale upwards...on all fours like an animal would.
Lloyd skidded to a stop before the edge and watched. He sneered and hit the com button. "He's going towards Central! Everyone, move to-!" Suddenly something landed on the front of his bike and he looked up...and was locked. Time seemed to stop.
The figure in front of him wore a dark cloak, attached to a black dragon mask, or rather, almost like an jacket. Sleeves that seemed almost like a bodysuit, tight fitting and just at the figure's wrists. The ends were separated into three wide sections, almost looking like a clean tear. The mask was a dragon head, with just the upper section of it, the eyes missing to make holes, white spikes running in a single line down the back. But the eyes belonging to the person...
Sharp. They were a solid silver, seeming to glow, full of spirit, energy...and something...animalistic. Lloyd felt something in his soul move and rumble, like...it was waking up. He couldn't move, felt like his couldn't breathe.
Finally, time moved, but slowly, as the figure looked up above him at the building, then jumped over him. Lloyd watched this graceful arch and they leapt onto the building and scaled it like the perp. Lloyd finally snapped and time rushed on him. They were now both scaling the building.
"Lloyd! Lloyd!" Nya's voice blared over the com. "Lloyd, the perps from the museum escaped! We're all heading towards Central, Jay is there with the bounty! What happened?!"
Lloyd was shaken from his trance and hit the com. "S-Sorry! i'm on my way to the bounty! Two assailants are on top of the Deluxe Finance building!" He revved his bike and sped towards the location of the ship.
The figure in the black cloak jumped from sill to sill, their eyes on the thief. They had no idea they were there. They got to the top...and the cloaked figure tackled them, onto the roof. The thief growled and swapped, hitting them in the jaw. The other figure growled and swiped back, slapping across the face.
They fought it out like animals on the room, hitting and swiping at the other.
The thief growled. "I didn't think daddy would let his precious little girl out~."
The voice that spoke from the cloak was female. "And I would have thought your Alpha would have known better than to invade on the humans like this!"
"Please, he knows nothing! Some of us have split off, and found a new Alpha!"
This shook the girl. New Alpha. "That is not allowed. Who is it?!" Suddenly, lights flared up on them. It was another ship, built like a small bounty, with the other masked assailants on it. On the other side, the bounty was not too far off.
"You won't find out." The thief pushed her off the roof.
"There!" Cole called out as they saw the cloaked figure being pushed off. The thief grabbed a grapple gun and aimed it at the smaller ship, clinging on.
"They're getting away!" Jay exclaimed.
The figure was being pulled by the gun, scroll in hand...
when suddenly there was a roar and a large figure shot up in the sky, flying by and grabbing the scroll in its mouth from the thief, almost knocking him out of the air, causing him to swing wildly.
"Holy Mother of Dragons, is that... a dragon?!" Kai yelled.
Lloyd stared in disbelief. They left...there were no more in Ninjago, but there it was. A solid black dragon with white claws, horns, and spines running down its back. Lloyd could barely make out the bright red eyes, but they stood out on the beast. And it was big. It had to be the length of a bus. It curved, flying down, trying to avoid buildings, and almost hit the bounty.
The ninja were frozen. "I-I thought the dragons were gone, where did this one come from?!" Nya asked.
Lloyd was about to give an answer, when it started flying up. As it did, they saw something fall, no, more than one. A storm of scales surrounded it, enveloping it. When it reached above the city to the sky, a figure curved backwards, scroll it hand. Lloyd's body went cold.
The cloaked figure was now in the sky, curved backwards, then falling towards the ground. The scales surrounded them again and the dragon was there, quickly turning up sharp towards the sky.
"Y-Y-Y-You all saw that, right?! Please tell me I'm not crazy?!" Jay freaked out.
"W-What was that?!" Cole asked.
Zane spoke up. "We need to go after it! It has that scroll!"
But by the time they moved, the dragon escaped into the clouds, then seemed to vanish.
"Its gone..." Lloyd said.
"So are the perps." Nya said.
It was now quit, the only sound was the hum of engines, and cars and sirens below.
"...WHAT IN THE NAME OF THE FIRST SPINJITZU MASTER JUST HAPPENED?!" Jay screamed.
"That..." They all turned and saw Master Wu come on deck. "That...can't be possible..." Wu seemed in disbelief.
"What can't be possible, Wu?" Loyd asked. "What was that?"
Wu bowed his head. "That...was a dragon shifter..." He looked at them. "And the possibility of the human race being in danger."
