Hello. This is season 4 for Alice. She is in the Tournament of Elements.
Alice: What's that?
Turtle: Let me type and find out. Disclaimer?
Alice: Fine. Disclaimer: Turtle does not own Ninjago. Only me.
Enjoy!
Alice's P.O.V
I sat on the couch above the Four weapons shop. I was the only one here after Kai and Nya went with Sensei and the other ninja. They asked me to come too, they all did, but I declined the offer. I wanted a normal life and one not including casts or bandages every month. If I was there, that's probably what it would be like. I still get letters from Kai though, sometimes from the others too, but mainly Kai. I still have them all too.
I was watching TV when I heard something downstairs in the shop. Someone's breaking in! I would call Kai, but I don't know the freaking number, not by heart. The number's downstairs, past the intruders.
I ran downstairs to find three guys. They all had purple snake tattoos on their faces and sunglasses.
The one in front took his off to reveal that he has a metal eye on his left side. These are some weird looking guys. They ran outside. Curious, I decided to follow them.
I ran to the back just to find that they disappeared on me. I looked around. I saw an alter standing on the far wall. Weird. I walked up to it. There was a fortune cookie. I opened it cautiously and took the fortune out. It read, Master Chen has personally invited you to participate in his Tournament of Elements. Secrecy is of the most importance, tell no one or suffer the consequences. Meet on the pier at midnight and leave your weapons behind. I don't have any weapons. They must've meant the weapons in the shop. The fortune suddenly disappeared in gray smoke. That scared me a little bit; I jumped. Well, I want to know what this thing is, so I guess I'm going.
I walked on the dock to find a lot more people here than I thought. I'm wearing a black hoodie with the hood up, jeans, and my boots. I went to the side of the dock and sat down, not looking at the water. I wasn't paying attention to anyone's conversations. I just sat there thinking about this whole situation. What is a Tournament of Elements? Who is Master Chen? Why no weapons if this a tournament? How many people did they invite to this? Why am I here?
Questions kept piling on my head, but I couldn't think anymore because a steam boat came to the dock. Everyone got in a line, so I did too. I was in the back, but there were four more people behind me. I didn't look to see who they were. A plank was dropped down on the dock and the people started getting on one by one. When I went on, I found a spot on the ground, back facing the ocean. I'm seasick.
I sat down and tried to meditate or something. Since I heard about Zane, meditating makes me feel closer to him. I began to meditate. I heard banging on metal over and over, and a banjo or something. They keep messing me up in my meditation. I opened my eyes, to find a different spot, but as soon as I did, I ran to the side and barfed. I knocked over people on my way. I'll apologize to them as soon as I stop barfing. I felt a comforting hand on my back. I felt a blush coming to my cheeks. This wasn't how I expected to meet the competition.
"You okay?" they asked. I know that voice, I know I do. I just can't place it at the moment.
"Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just seasick," I answered. My hood flew down in the rush, so my hair was in my face.
"Have we met before?" the person tried to connect the dots.
"Possibly. I know I know your voice I just can't place it."
"Same here. What's your element?"
"Why would I tell you? You're my competition, right?" I asked jokingly. Even though I don't know, that doesn't mean the others have to.
"I guess so. I was just asking."
"What's yours?"
"If I tell you, will you tell me?"
"...Sure."
"My element is Earth."
"Earth!?" I exclaimed. I almost choked on my own puke hearing that.
"Yeah. Proud of it too."
"Cole?" I asked. I finally stopped puking and looked up. I saw dirt brown eyes and that mess of black hair only belongs to one person. Cole!
"Alice!?"
"Shh. I don't want anyone to know my identity," I joked pulling my hood back up.
"What are you doing here?" he asked.
"Same as you, I guess. What are you doing here?" I asked.
"Me and the guys are going to save Zane."
"Isn't Zane dead?"
"Our invites came with a picture of Zane saying he was alive."
"I just wanted to know what this whole thing is."
"Oh. You know your brother and the others will find out you're here, right?"
"Yeah. Let them find out on their own."
"We're here. Welcome to Chen's island," Clouse said. Me and Cole walked up with the others to see, I was on the right side of him.
"I swore to never return," an old man said. Why was he here? In a tournament with people with powers?
Kai came up to my right side. I started getting nervous.
"You know, you should never swear. It's a sign of weak verbal skills," Jay said. Really, Jay?
"He hasn't changed, has he?" I whispered to Cole. He shook his head.
"Nope."
"If Zane's on that island, we'll find him. We have to," a person in a green ninja suit said.
First chapter done! Cole sees Alice again and she gets to see the others again.
Alice: Yay!
Turtle: I thought you might like that after the last story.
Alice: You better believe it!
