No one knew who they were or where they were fro, or even what their motive was. But they were trouble. And where trouble occurs, the ninjas are normally there within minutes.
Minutes seemed to be too long of a time this time. The thugs had already made a mess of the small village. People were running frantically. Children clung to their parents' hands crying. Statues were smashed, as well as part of the fountain causing flooding. Many were injured, but, thankfully, no one had been killed.
Kai and the others had to drive them out of town before too many people were hurt. Luckily most of the thugs who were attacking were intimidated by their display of spinjitzu. Now they just had to drive the tougher ones out.
Nya came running out holding two daggers in attempt to help them out.
"Nya no! Stay back!" Kai warned.
He didn't want his little sister to get hurt.
"No. I can help," Nya declared parrying rocks that the thugs threw at her.
Kai, protective as ever, tried to get closer to his sister. To help defend her but a group of thugs forced him back. Kai swung his sword trying to urge them towards the village exit, but the progress was slow and there were still others getting past him. Kai knew the others had a similar problem. They needed a plan.
"Looks like we'll have to pull in the big one! Tornado of creation!" Cole commanded, "EARTH!"
"FIRE!" echoed Kai.
"ICE!" Zane followed.
"LIGHTNING!" Jay finished.
"NINGAGOOO!"
The four elemental tornados merged and grew into a giant one of pure light sucking in debris. The remaining thugs fled the village and the villagers cheered as the tornado dies down revealing a large statue of a dragon.
"Alright!" Kai cheered high fiving his team mates.
Another day. Another disaster averted…or so it seemed for the moment.
"Look!" a villager cried.
The ninja's turned and saw the problem. The statue the tornado of creation had made was top heavy. And it was tilting.
Before anyone could do anything the statue started to topple onto it's side. It fell away from buildings but it was headed right towards Jay.
"Jay! Run!" Cole shouted.
But Jay seemed rooted to the spot with fear.
With no warning Nya dashed forward heading right towards Jay.
"Nya! Don't!" Kai tried to stop her.
But Nya didn't listen. At last second she reached Jay and have him a hard shove.
Jay stumbled into safety, but there was no time for Nya to save herself.
CRASH!
The statue was on the ground. Underneath it was Nya.
"NYA! NOOOOOO!" Jay cried running towards the statue and trying to lift it off of her. The ninjas ran forward to help and so did most of the villagers. After several minutes of intense effort the statue was lifted enough for one of the thinner villagers to crawl under and drag Nya to safety.
The statue was dropped and the ninjas ran to their fallen ally.
"She's unconscious, but I think she's breathing," the village said, stepping away so the ninjas could have a better look.
Nya was unconscious and bruised. But miraculously she was alive.
"She must have been under a part that curved inwards," Zane observed, "There's no other way she could have survived that."
"Someone get a doctor!" Cole called.
A couple villagers ran off to do as Cole said.
Within ten minutes Nya was under medical care. The doctors told the ninjas she was in a coma, and they weren't sure when she would wake up.
With heavy hearts the ninjas returned to the Dojo.
Sensei Wu was waiting for them. "Why so gloomy?" he asked.
"Let just say," Jay answered, "We just learned the hard way what you meant when you said the tornado of creation can lead to disastrous consequences."
