A bright flash blinded everyone who was near and a yell sounded as a body was flung. A green clad boy crashed into a tree with a dull grunt. He struggled to his feet, glaring at the dark shape hovering before him.
"Lloyd!" Someone dressed in red ninja gi ran up his friend, helping him stand.
"I-I'm okay Kai." Lloyd stammered, glancing greatfuly at the red ninja. Kai smiled in turn and carefully let go. The master of power straightened, then flew backwards as a blur of blue was flung at him. They landed a few yards away, groaning.
"Man, that thing is crazy!" Exclaimed the blue ninja as he climbed off Lloyd while clutching his arm.
"Tell me about it." Muttered Cole, the master of earth. He limped over to them with a man dressed in white ninja gi following.
"My calculations state our rate of success is 10%." The man said, pulling his hood down.
"Thanks Zane. That's real POSITIVE of you!" Snapped Jay, the blue ninja. "Ugh, this island is making me go mad!"
"How is that thing so powerful? I mean, we've been fighting it forever." Questioned Kai, helping Lloyd to his feet, again.
"No idea. At- Watch out!" The five dove as a beam flew overhead. They scrambled to their feet, regrouping under the cover of a bush. "Hey, if this is it, I just wanted to say that it has been an honor fighting with you guys."
"Aw, you too Lloyd."
"I agree. It has been great being with you, my brothers."
"This is sappy, but it really has been an honor being with you guys."
"You guys make it sound as if this is goodbye. Maybe it is, I don't know. All I want to say is thank you."
The five ninja rose, staring defiantly at their opponent. The master of fire, the master of lightning, the master of earth, the master of ice, and the master of power. Each stood, a feeling of dread in their stomachs but a fire burning in their eyes.
"Fire!"
"Earth!"
"Lightning!"
"Ice!"
All five flew forward, then stopped abruptly as a shape came hurtling down from the sky. It landed with a thud and their enemy fell. Water came surging up and engulfed the large, mechanical shape. Electricity was buzzing everywhere and even Jay was amazed. The water dissipated and the machine crashed onto the sandy ground. It twitched and small beams came out, but nothing that could do damage.
Their 'savior' turned and it was revealed that it was wearing ninja gi. It was a mix between green and blue, it was teal.
"Thought you guys might've wanted a bit of help!" It chirped. Its voice sounded awfully feminine.
"Who are you?" Shouted Lloyd, glaring at the person.
"Yeah, we were handling it just fine!" Scoffed Cole. Kai just glared thoughtfully at the newcomer. Jay and Zane were silent, watching the scene play out.
"Oh yes. Perfectly fine." Sneered the figure and their hood came down. Long brown hair and shining emerald eyes were revealed.
"Woah! Y-You're a, a, girl!" Stammered Jay, his mouth agape.
"Yes, I'm a girl. My name is Kathyrn." She grinned at the boys. "Master of water."
"Okay, that's nice. Still doesn't explain why you are here." Cole stated, crossing his arms before stumbling and flailing his arms. Zane caught him and helped prop him up as he winced when he put his leg down.
"I'm here because-" She stopped as she heard rumbling. "I- I have to go. You never saw me, okay?" She sprinted away, leaping onto a nearby tree and disappearing into the forest. Right as she left, Sensei Wu and Nya came flying overhead on The Bounty.
"Should we tell Sensei about 'Kathyrn'?" Questioned Jay as he watched the ship land.
"She sounded panicked. I suggest we not until we know more." Zane said as he took a step forward.
"Alright then…."
