by NinjagoninjaKXGIRL

In the far future, Kai is alone, his friends left at the hands of fate. Darkness corrupts the land, putting all of Ninjago at mercy. But Kai prepares to take revenge, and to him, it means war.

~Prologue~

Kai makes his way back from Ninjago City, his face not showing any kind of emotion. The city wasn't the same he and his friends had to save many times, for now it was empty, and colorless...just like everything else in Ninjago.

Just years before, the noble ninja fought a harsh battle against the Overlord, it was such a horrific sight, most of the civilians stayed in doors due to the bloodbath outdoors. Right when things were going good for our heroes, the table seemed to have turned, and before they knew it, they all fell to their deaths. Evil had won the final battle, and good was put to the fate of death. Kai was able to survive, he ran away from the scene, not once looking back until he got to safer ground. His eyes were open wide, in pure terror, his friends, his brothers, were gone. All of them, Cole, Jay, Zane, even Lloyd, the ninja foretold to defeat the dark lord had fallen at the hands of the enemy. Our lone survivor sobbed for hours on that darkest day, for he couldn't bear the loss of the people who fought, trained, and stood beside him...he was all alone.

The ninjas were buried in the Ninjago cemetery by the citizens of Ninjago, along with Sensei Wu and Nya, who died shortly after because of grief and pain. Kai however, survived, everyone thought he was dead though, and he decided it was right for it to stay that way. But still, as the years went by, Kai never dare forgotten that very day everything changed, the day his family had died, the day evil had won. He cried each day thinking about it, he couldn't take it no one could.

As for Ninjago, darkness had taken over, and turned all of it into a place of misery and sorrow, no one was happy, no one was cheerful, everyone acted as if someone who had been their hero, their savior had passed, which they had, forever.

Kai took it harshly, but he didn't let his emotions get in the way of what was really important, as the years passed, Kai also was preparing to make things right again, to end the suffering and bring light back to Ninjago.

Kai stopped at the cemetery, and walked towards a row of graves, he drew his sword, his starter weapon ever since Sensei recruited him. He set it down on all the graves, and pat the tombstone which marked them...he then left to continue his work.

What was he preparing for?

War. Kai was preparing for a big, and bloody war.
