This takes place 20 years after Skybound on the Ninjago side (The Ninjas kids are my OC's), and after The Crown of Ptolemy on the HOO, and K. Chron. side. If you aren't caught up that far, then GO GET CAUGHT UP! Also, I only own my OC's, LEGO owns the Ninja, and Rick Riordan owns the characters from his books. Wow, that was a lot of disclaimer. On with the story!

Sadie Kane here. If you're wondering, the end of the world started when a ninja got punched onto the porch of the Brooklyn House. I kid you not, a NINJA was PUNCHED onto one of the balconies in Brooklyn House. Let me start from the beginning in case you are confused. I, along with everyone else in the Twenty-First Nome, was enjoying breakfast on one of the balconies, when a ninja dressed in yellow (not a very stealthy color) appeared out of thin air and flew into the wall above the doorway leading back inside. He then promptly collapsed on the floor, groaning in pain.
"Someone get him to the infirmary, quick!" Jaz shouted above the chaos. He
tried to stand up, but couldn't, and collapsed again. In that moment, this thing appeared right around the spot the strange ninja-like figure appeared from. It then decided to attempt to explode us, so I exploded him back with a quick ha-di spell.
"Crisis averted everyone, feel free to thank me later." I said as the ninja was helped to the infirmary.
"Sadie, come on. I might need your help" Jaz told me.
"Um, you do realize I have zero medical experience, right?" I replied. She did not care, and just told me to follow her.
After about half an hour in the infirmary, the ninja was unconscious and Jaz stood up to leave.
"Sadie, I'm going to go grab something that might help him with his injuries, just make sure nothing happens to him." She told me as she left.
So I sat there while she was gone. For quite some time, as minutes turned to hours. So after about 2 hours, I went up to where I thought she would go, and the door was closed. Suspicious, I tried to open it. It opened, but not very easily, and I was shocked by what I saw. I saw Jaz against the wall, bloody and not moving. I screamed and ran over to her, checked for a pulse and didn't find one. I backed away shaking from fear as Carter came in, likely because of my screaming.
"Sadie, what's-! What happened here?!" He said as ran in.
"I-I don't know, b-but she's… she's…" At this point I just broke. I couldn't believe that my best friend was dead, and from the looks of it, it wasn't an accident. Someone had done this, and I intended to find them. A familiar voice shook me from my thoughts.
"Yes, she is dead isn't she. And that is exactly what is about to happen to you." I turned to see who was talking, and my blood boiled when I saw Walt. But his voice sounded slightly different. He gestured at the door and it slammed shut and appeared to lock. Walt began to laugh evilly with that weird echoey voice. That's when I realized neither Carter nor I had weapons. Oops.

Why did I have to hit my head? That always give me weird/unhelpfully helpful dreams. This was an example of the latter, because all I got out of was that someone was panicking, probably my mother and twin sister, since, you know, I was in an entirely different plane of existence. Until the very end, in which a got a very familiar laugh. That's when I knew the panic was very close to me, meaning someone in this place was in danger. I was raised from birth not to allow that, so excuse me for being a bit careless. I woke up almost immediately and dashed off to find the source of the laugh. I knew who it was, it was Aldrin, one of Dylan's four generals, but I needed to know where it was. Along the way, I bumped into someone carrying what looked like a clay pot. I thought it broke, but she had her hand outstretched and the pot was levitating! 'Cole would be so jealous' I thought as she brought the pot back to her hand.
"Hey, what are you doing out of the infirmary?" She asked me.
"Someone is in danger, and I need to find out who and where they are." I replied.
"Oh… okay, well if you see Jaz tell her I'm looking for her! My name's Alyssa, by the way! See you around!" Then she ran off. I hesitated, then decided that she was a different Alyssa then the one I remembered, and continued on my way to find Aldrin. I eventually came to a suspicious looking closed door. I tried to open it, but it was locked and wouldn't budge. I could feel Aldrin's power, so I decided if he wasn't going to let me in, I was going to let myself in. I gathered up electric power in my foot and kicked the door as hard as I could. It exploded off its hinges in a very satisfying way, and revealed some guy getting ready to kill two others. He turned to me and said "Well, if it isn't the little Lightning ninja! How nice of you to join us!"
"Back off Aldrin! Dylan wouldn't want his generals getting themselves killed, would he?" I taunted back. To this he responded by creating a very large sword out of orange energy, which I knew from experience was the energy of destruction. So I did the natural thing. I charged him, with a strange curved sword I grabbed on the way up. It wasn't a katana, but it would do for the time being. I dodged his first strike and came back with an upward slash aimed directly for his face. He dodged it, unfortunately and slashed at me. I really didn't want this place to get destroyed, so I decided it was best to take this outside.
"That sword isn't so great for confined spaces is it? So why don't we take this outside!" I yelled as kicked him with so much force that he busted through the wall. The kick also released a lot of leftover electricity, which might have been bad for the two people's health. {A/N: No duh, idiot} I would worry about them later, right now a had a maniac possessing a dude to take care of.
As I ran out through my newly created hole, the girl shouted at me.
"P-Please d-don't hurt W-Walt!" I assumed Walt was the person Aldrin was currently possessing, and I didn't have the heart to tell her that this Walt person, if he was Aldrin's choice of host, was already gone. See, when Dylan's generals take someone as their host, they destroy the person's soul, so they won't have any resistance. So if Walt even survived, he would be an empty husk. Considering this, you might consider it logical that I showed him no mercy as I charged him. We entered a taxing duel, each of us being matched in skill by the other. I was making no progress, and to lightning kicks had taken its toll on me. I was about to be overwhelmed when I heard a shout from the building.
"HA-DI!"
As soon as I heard the words, a symbol appeared on Aldrin's chest. He then proceeded to explode. With me already being injured, that did not feel great. Although I suppose that's what I get for electrocuting those people. Anyways, Aldrin was gone, though I knew he wasn't dead, because that's just how this goes. I ran back to the building, where the girl collapsed, probably from shock, and I saw the boy pick up a third girl, who wasn't moving. I checked for a pulse, and she was dead. I checked the other girl's pulse and found it was racing. The boy introduced himself to me as Carter Kane, saying the girl who collapsed was his sister Sadie, and the dead girl was Jaz. Then I realized Alyssa was looking for Jaz, and asked me to let her know if I found her. But I had other things to worry about. Namely the unconscious Sadie, or getting back to my plane of reality. You know, the little things. As we went to the infirmary, I asked Carter if Sadie had any good friends we could get here, and if so, who were they.
"Yes she does. Her name is Annabeth Chase, and I think she's free today" An odd reply, but I'll take it. So we called her. Or rather, Carter called her, because he knew her, and I didn't. Because me calling her would be creepy.
That's where this chapter will end. Yes, I love cliffhangers, and you guys will have to wait for about a week for the next chapter. Because you know, VACATION AND BIRTHDAY STUFFS FTW! Anyways, be sure to R&R, and I'll see you in the next chapter! Also, I apologize for publishing this at 4:00 in the morning, but I wanted this up before I leave tomorrow. BYE!
