Alright I'm back with another story! This one is basically inspired by question of "what if there were girl ninjas in the show?" I've had that question for over 3 years now. I have to admit, this beginning part of the story does sound similar to Chosen by Destiny, another thing that inspired me but trust me, it is quite different later on. Anyways, I hope to make this story better and longer than my last one!
If you're wondering when this story takes place and/or anything different from the show, here's a list:
-Lloyd was already affected by the Tomorrow's Tea (so he is around the ninjas' age)
-Garmadon went missing after Lloyd defeated the Overlord
-Lloyd doesn't know who his mother is
-The ninja don't have their Golden Weapons and have never visited the Temple of Light
-Zane is the same Zane we saw in every season up to 4 (the one about the Tournament of Elements, meaning he is not the Titanium Ninja)
Enjoy!
Chapter 1: Foresight
Sensei Wu decided to take a break from the constant rambling noises like yells, shouts, and complaints the ninja were making as they played their favourite video game, Fist to Face 2. He could tell even Nya was beginning to lose her patience with their constant noise, which was quite hard to do because she had an impatient brother like Kai to put up with for her whole life.
Wu decided to look in to the spirit smoke. Often times, the spirit smoke would show him a glimpse of events that may or may not happen in the future, although most of the time it did end up coming true.
Wu sat down in his room and brought the incense sticks and ashes used to create the spirit smoke. A cloud of grey smoke appeared in front of the wise man's face as he closed his eyes to see what it will show. Wu thought deeply, trying to be at peace which was hard to do with the loud shouts they made. They were clearly getting too excited at their day off from training, and Wu hoped Nya would yell at them to teach them a lesson to stay a bit quieter.
The spirit smoke started off by showing Wu a temple, a temple which seemed familiar but he could not quite put the name on it. It shifted and showed seemingly random locations, such as the Akra Forest, Coastal Plains, Lonely Cave, and the Desert Pyramid. The scene shifted again as Wu saw what looked like his four students: they were dressed the same with the same ninja gi but they had their hoods pulled over their faces. Based on the little he could see of their faces, they looked like his students. Standing next to each of the ninja was what he thought could be a kunoichi.
The scene shifted once again and showed the four kunoichi standing back to back in a square, with light shining all around them.
The first one was cyan. Calm and soothing, moving as graceful and being as patient as her element. Water.
The second one was yellow. Brilliant radiance shone and lightened the world around them while moving as swiftly and smoothly as her element. Light.
The third one was teal. Radiating a peaceful nature and being as gentle but dangerous as her element. Nature.
The last one was silver. Determined and willful, she was as adventurous and filled with spirit as her element. Wind.
A loud shriek found its way into the sensei's ears and startled him as he opened his eyes. He lost his concentration and the spirit smoke disappeared. Wu pondered a bit over what he had seen, from the temple he knew but could not remember, to the four places, to the four kunoichi. Even someone as wise as Sensei Wu could not tell what these things meant. The temple…could there be something there? And the locations…he was shown four of them, and four kunoichi…could that mean the kunoichi could be found there? And what was the reason it even showed the four kunoichi in the first place? There were a lot of questions the old man could ask, but he did not have the answers.
"I suppose I should thank the ninja for bringing me back to reality with that loud scream…" Wu mumbled to himself. He sure did not want to see anymore than what he already saw. It would give him too many more questions to find answers to.
Wu walked down towards the video game room. He saw his students, except for Zane, who was only watching for the time being because they didn't have another controller. What Wu saw on the screen made him shake his head. The characters were the ninja themselves, even dressed the same in the same ninja gi. They were running around, defeating the Skeleton Army. The games people make these days… Wu thought, disapprovingly. Then Wu got an idea. He would turn it off. He unplugged the plug that kept the TV on and the screen immediately went off.
"Oh, come on!" a ninja with orange-brown hair and a blue gi, Jay, ninja of lightning, complained.
"Uncle, what was that for?" another ninja, this one with blond hair and a green gi, Lloyd, asked with a hint of complaint in his voice and question.
"It took us forever to get there!" a ninja with spiky brown hair and a red gi, Kai, ninja of fire, complained alongside his brothers.
The last ninja who was playing and not watching, short black hair and a black gi, Cole, ninja of earth, sat there and glared at his sensei without saying a word.
"Sensei, is there a reason why you stopped us from playing?" the ninja with a white gi and who wasn't playing, Zane, ninja of ice, asked. He had light blond flattop hair that never went down because he was a robot, or as his brothers call him, a nindroid.
"Of course I have a reason," Wu replied calmly, ignoring their complaints and angered and annoyed looks. "Evil never sleeps, and we never know when a new evil will rise."
"But you said we have a break from training for a while…" Cole protested.
"That is right, but it has been a while since you last trained. Two weeks to be exact. Anyways, I saw some…things in the spirit smoke that I will need to think about and then tell you what I know."
The five ninja exchanged glances when they saw their teacher hesitate. They knew something he was a bit distraught, but they knew better than to ask right away.
"You can have your day off today, but tomorrow, training resumes." Sensei Wu walked off to his room again, hoping to think about what he saw in the spirit smoke. "Oh, and quit making so much noise!" he called out before he was out of earshot.
I didn't expect this chapter to be that long anyways, the part of this chapter without these author's notes is only 1000 words. Next chapter will be longer and..uh..I don't know what else to say. Hope you liked this first chapter and I hope it makes you want to continue reading. On my last story, none of my chapters except the first one got over 100 views so I'm guessing it wasn't captivating enough. I hope this one was. Anyways, hope you liked it!
