Ch. 1

Perhaps the most important part in the sensei's plan was finding them. He had thought too far ahead, thinking about training, and how to choose the Green Ninja. They were very important, and so he put too much time into that.

But if he couldn't find them, what would he do?

First, he had tried Ignacia, where an old friend of his, the first master of fire, had raised his family, and hid a map to the Golden Weapons. Unfortunately, he arrived just after a Skulkin attack, and had no luck finding either his friend, the map, or his the first of the four.

Soon, he traveled to the mountains, where a young boy was mountain climbing. Immediately, he was intrigued, and believed that had to be another of the four, but he lost the boy, and couldn't find him.

On his third try, he had gotten close, close enough to meet one of the boys he wanted to recruit: the master of lightning. He was sitting on a rooftop, and suddenly, he flew by, on a pair of homemade wings. The boy crashed on the roof, and the sensei hesitated to speak, which was his downfall. The boy, obviously embarrassed, quickly ran off, and the sensei knew not where.

The last was the most difficult. He traveled throughout villages, and small towns, questioning everyone about a boy. The first master of ice was a queer one, and the sensei knew nothing of his whereabouts. When he asked, many would answer, saying a small, blonde boy, who spoke little passed by, but had moved on weeks ago. Weeks became days, and days became only a day, until, at one small village, he saw the boy throw himself into a lake as it froze over. Not wanting to know what had happened, he quickly left the area.

The sensei fought through the disappointment, until he came up with a new plan; he could recruit other children of different elemental masters. He wouldn't find the true green ninja, but Ninjago needed to be protected, more than anything. The next four he found, he would train. As ninja.

With a renewed spirit, he set off once again, for a wider search. And he hoped for success.

"I'll find them," he said to himself, as the sun set over the trail he walked on. "I'm not sure who they are, but I'll find them."


(A/N) Hey everyone! I'm back. This is a new story I'm working on. This is the introduction, so it's much shorter than all the other chapters. I can't say when I'll be updating though, sorry. Anyway, this story will overall follow the plot of Ninjago, but with different characters, and I promise, no OC's!

Until next time,
