If this is your first time reading this story, please disregard the message below (if you want to read it anyway, feel free), read the author's note and enjoy the story. Otherwise, please read this.
Plot twist: A change to the plot. This includes character removal, addition, substitution, name changes, disclaimer announcements, information added or removed, etc.
Revision: a chapter with minor plot changes and pretty much sticks to the original chapter. Text will be spaced out.
Rewrite: a chapter that has very few components from the original and practically has a different plot. Text will be spaced out.
Chapter 1 falls in the rewrite category. As you can see, I changed "Professor Smith" to "Erik Smith" and added that he is deceased. They never named Kai and Nya's parents (if they did in season 5 and I missed it, please tell me in a review or PM) in the series or anything like that. Anyway, Erik is Kai and Nya's late father and (sorry for those of you who haven't watched season 4) the first Elemental Master of Fire. Kai inherited his powers from his father, but he inherited his mother's hair color. Rachel Miles began to date Erik when they saw each other at a beach and they got married eight months later. Rachel is Kai and Nya's mother and (sorry for those of you who haven't watched seasons 4 and 5) the first Elemental Master of Water. Nya inherited her powers from her mother (this can be found on the Wikipedia page) and her father's hair color. Isaac is Erik's younger brother and therefore, Kai and Nya's uncle. Isaac was away on business when Erik and Rachel passed. Despite not living with them (Kai and Nya), Isaac is their legal guardian. Isaac met Kai and Nya when they were babies and is a blacksmith as well. He saw them again as young children. Isaac has no elemental powers, but, he is skilled in MMA. Isaac has dark brown (like, a tinge of a shade darker than Kai's) hair and in his Lego form, it looks like Sensei Wu's when he was younger; in his "anime form", it looks more like Red's (from Origins) hair. He has brown eyes in his Lego form (I personally believe that –with there being exceptions-, all Lego figures/figurines have either brown, dark brown or onyx eyes pretty much by default), but in his anime form, his eyes are blue.
Author's note: This is the first crossover I decided to write. It takes place right after the final battle. That means that Kai's attire (since Nya's only other attire is seen to be pajamas, formal wear [from when she and Jay went on a date], disguises and Samurai X attire) is the same and so is Nya's. Kai isn't in his casual attire [from when he, Zane and Jay helped Cole with the dance competition] or anything beyond season two, with pajamas as the exception. As for Nya, she isn't seen in a gi/kimono/whatever you want to call it until season 5. Lloyd, Garmadon and Misako have left for their private reunion. If it's said in a disclaimer (for this fic) that I only own part of the storyline, it means that I am using context from an episode/mini movie and that it (what I am saying) doesn't belong to me. It also means that I may have changed the context. So any original context (that you may recognize) from an episode/mini movie belongs to Ninjago and its rightful owners. On a side note, even if you haven't watched the Ninjago series (I recommend it), Kai and Nya have relatively easy personalities to follow. So if you don't get the chance to watch Ninjago and aren't sure of a character's personality, say so in a review and I'll see how I can help. For now: Gary, disclaimer!
Gary: QUEENSPELLER67 only owns the names for Kai and Nya's parents, part of the storyline and OCs.
Chapter 1: Heated Destiny
(Ninjago City. Third person P.O.V.)
A boy with spiky brown hair wearing a red gi says, "Hey, Nya, we did it! What are you staring at?" The question is directed to a black-haired girl wearing a red tank top and red pants. She appears to be staring into space.
"Huh? Oh. I'm happy," the girl now known as Nya says. Nya is also known as Samurai X.
An old man with a walking stick says, "That's not the Nya I'm familiar with. Kai, Nya, you can go home now." Kai and Nya look at each other and nod.
"We will. We'll keep in touch, Sensei Wu," Kai says to the old man now known as Sensei Wu. Kai turns and looks around. Kai finds who he is looking for and approaches him.
"Hey, Cole. Can we borrow the Ultra Dragon?" Kai asks. Cole is wearing a black gi and like Nya, has black hair.
"Yeah, knock your socks off," Cole says. He looks at the four-headed beast and adds, "You cool with that, Rocky?"
Nya walks up to the boys. One of the heads on the four-headed dragon blows smoke. Kai smiles and says, "I guess that's a 'yes'." Kai then mounts the dragon that blew smoke with Nya doing the same.
"Fly us home, Flame," Nya says, holding onto Kai. The dragon complies, despite Cole saying 'Rocky' earlier. While the Ultra Dragon was the result of each elemental dragon unlocking their full potential (according to Zane), each dragon still had their personalities, names and of course, a typical rider; or in Flame's case, two. As they're flying towards their home, Nya notices the oddity from earlier in the sky. 'Did this happen because of the final battle? Did this happen because Kai and I had to fight?' Nya thinks.
"You alright, Nya?" Kai asks. Before she can respond, Kai sees the oddity a few feet away from their home, which was also their shop. "Get ready to come in for a landing, Flame," Kai says. The dragon complies and the landing is safe.
"The sky looks so creepy," Kai says. The two walk into their home. Kai looks for food for Flame and Nya finds a note underneath a small box. Nya reads the note as Kai is feeding Flame. She finishes and opens the box.
"Kai, you should read this," Nya says. She closes the box. Kai stops feeding Flame, but the dragon isn't done eating yet.
"Nya's gonna finish feeding you, okay big guy?" Kai says. The dragon snorts, pretty much approving. Nya places the note down and Kai hands her the container of the food he had been feeding their dragon.
Kai picks up the note and reads aloud, "To Kai and Nya, you may not remember me, but I may be in danger. I was coming here to surprise you. I heard something asking for help and I went. If you're reading this and there's some odd vortex in the sky, then that means you have a narrow window. Get on whatever dragon you may have and be prepared. I'll explain about the box and more about my identity when you get here. With that, I am Isaac Smith. PS, the box has something in it for Nya."
"I opened the box and it's a necklace," Nya says, grabbing the box. "I'd grab my stuff, but we don't have time. Let's just go and hope for the best," she finishes.
The two go out of their home and remount Flame. "Maybe it's another world," Kai says, pulling his hood over his head. They fly into the vortex…
(Fall City. Fiore. Ash's P.O.V.)
"I can assure you that we'll do what we can to figure out what Pokémon called you for help. Yo Ashy-boy, check to see if they're here yet!" Gary says.
"Sure thing. Hey, Lunick, wanna come with?" I ask the Ranger.
"Yeah, let's go," he says. We carefully walk out.
"Capture, on!" Lunick shouts. I try looking in the water, but I can't make anything out. "Capture complete," he says. I look over at him and hear screaming.
"We're gonna drown!" a guy's voice says.
"What happened to Flame?" a girl's voice asks.
"Starmie, Psychic!" Lunick commands. So he captured a Starmie. They float towards us and upon closer look, they look like Isaac did when he came in. They both have their eyes sealed shut. I turn and notice Isaac coming. I turn to face them.
"Um, you can open your eyes. You're not drowning," I say. They do.
"Starmie, let them down gently," Lunick says. Once they're safely on the ground, Lunick sets Starmie free.
"It's good to see you two. I can't believe how much you've grown. Follow us inside and I'll let everyone introduce themselves," Isaac says.
"So, you're Isaac?" the guy says.
"Yes," Isaac replies. Before either of them can say anything, he speaks again. "I'm your uncle." We walk in and Lunick goes to Solana.
(Third person P.O.V.)
There are 10 others in the room. Some have their Pokémon out, some don't.
"Everyone, this is my nephew, Kai Smith," Isaac begins, gesturing to the 16-year-old who takes off his hood to reveal his spiky hair.
"Sup?" Kai casually says, as if he's known everyone his whole life. Isaac lightly chuckles at this.
"This is my niece and Kai's younger sister, Nya Smith," Isaac says, gesturing to his left.
"Hi, everyone," Nya says. Normally, Nya Smith wouldn't be shy or soft-spoken, but she and Kai were in a new world with new people and Flame was still MIA. The 14-year-old steals a glance at her brother, and while he's got a casual smile on his face, she can tell he's just as nervous as well.
"My name is Ash Ketchum. I'm from Pallet Town in the Kanto region and this is my best buddy, Pikachu," Ash says, grinning.
"Pika, pikachu," Pikachu says, introducing himself.
A redhead wearing a white tank top, red pants, a red sleeveless half-zipped jacket and a pair of black shoes with red laces speaks up next. "My name is Pyro Mitler. I'm from Stone Town, which is also in Kanto. Nice to meet you," he says. His Flareon nuzzles his leg. "Oh, and this is my Flareon," he adds. (1)
"Flare, flare!" Flareon says, adding her own greeting.
"I'm Gary Oak from Pallet like Ashy boy. I'm a researcher, but I began to compete in some small tournaments because I felt like I was missing out on training," Gary says. (2)
A plum-haired male pockets his PokéNav and turns his gaze towards the Smith siblings. "The name's Paul Shinji and I'm from Veilstone City in Sinnoh."
"My name is Solana Torres and I'm from Fiore," a girl with teal hair says. "By the way, this is my Plusle," Solana says, pointing to the small Electric-type that jumps off her shoulder. Pikachu jumps off of Ash's.
"I'm Lunick Kazuki and I'm from Fiore like Solana. This is my Minun," he says, letting Minun wave before jumping off his arm. "I'm the one who had Starmie prevent your fall. My girlfriend and I are both Pokémon Rangers," he adds, giving Solana a quick peck on the cheek. (3)
"My name is Bianca and I'm from Nuvema Town in the Unova region," a blonde says. A phone rings, since they are at a base. Solana and Lunick go to it. While only one needs to answer it, the other needs to be present anyway.
"Hello?" Solana says. She pauses. "Okay," she says, motioning for Lunick to give her something to write with and a piece of paper. She finishes writing and says, "Thank you, Lance. Bye," before proceeding to hang up. (4)
A brunette reties her bandana around her head and says, "I'm May Senri from Petalburg City in Hoenn." (5)
A honey blonde finishes feeding her Pancham and looks up. "Oh, I'm sorry. I had to feed Pancham. My name is Serena Yang and I'm from Vaniville Town in Hoenn," she says. Her hair is down, but she has a hair tie on her wrist. (6)
A blond has his Umbreon out and says, "I'm Virgil Wayland from Castelia City, which is also in Unova and has pretty good ice cream." (7)
"Solana, why did Lance call?" Paul asks.
"Lance gave me the numbers of two of his agents. He also told us which trainers would be meeting up with us. From Kanto, Daisy Oak, Leaf Green, Misty Kawakami and Colette Rushing. From Johto, Egan Moore and Jimmy Gold. From Hoenn, Flannery Moore, Tabitha Moore, Courtney Stegall, Blaise Teigen, Harrison Velasquez and Max Senri," Solana begins.
"Whoa, Max is a trainer already?" Ash asks.
"Mmhm. He's 14, now," May says.
"Is that it?" Gary asks, seeming shocked. Solana shakes her head.
"No, there are more," she replies. Lunick had been studying the list as well. Solana takes her canteen to get a drink. (8)
"From Sinnoh, we'll have Dawn Berlitz, Flint Nara, Sarah Shinji and Lucas Rowan," Lunick says. (9)
"Wait, Paul has a sister?" Ash says.
"You'll meet her. Go on Lunick," Paul replies, not really wanting to talk about it.
"Sure thing. From Unova, we'll have Chili Morita. From Kalos, we'll have Dakota Sycamore, Malva Stevens and Trevor Lockwood," Lunick finishes. Suddenly, Kai's sword begins to shake on his back. Kai removes it and a ball on the end that wasn't there before opens.
"Now that's a rare shiny," Gary says, shocked.
"Flame?" Kai and Nya simultaneously ask. It was interesting for the Smith siblings. They had first encountered Flame in an active volcano. Flame had then merged with the other 3 elemental dragons. Now, Flame was really something else!
"I've only seen a shiny Dragonite in pictures and it didn't look like that," Gary says. Gary was right. Flame's body was red like that of a Charmeleon and had an off-white belly. The interior of the wings were bluish-gray.
"Nya, did you get the box?" Isaac asks. Nya nods and pulls out the necklace.
"I looked at it before we left. It's beautiful," Nya says, revealing the necklace. The necklace had a nickel chain and at the end, a pendant with a blue gem in it. (10)
"Let me put it on," Isaac says. Nya hands him the necklace. As he puts it on, he decides to talk. "I'm a traveling blacksmith and I had been called to another island, far from Ninjago. I had limited contact with Ninjago itself when Erik and Rachel passed. I was able to save some money and send it to the shop. I didn't want the shop to fail and you to end up in an orphanage," he says.
"So, what about not seeing us?" Kai asks.
"That was the thing. I was called on several trips. After I sent money to the shop, I made a call to Tommy and asked him to do me a favor," Isaac says, finishing.
"Who's Tommy?" Nya asks.
"You know him as 'Sensei Wu', but your father and I knew him as 'Tommy' and his brother as 'Marmaduke' or 'Duke' for short," Isaac replies. (11)
"So you sent him to Four Weapons?" Kai asks.
"What's 'Four Weapons'?" Ash asks.
Nya is looking at her necklace and answers, "It's a blacksmith shop and our home back in Ninjago."
Kai looks at the necklace. "I still have mine from Dad. The aquamarine is beautiful on you, Nya," he says, revealing his own chain. His is like Nya's, only instead of an aquamarine, his stone is a dark red one. (12)
"Those were gifts from your parents. I had a feeling that yours would need resizing, Nya. As for yours Kai, it should fit perfectly," Isaac says.
"How are you so sure about that?" Paul asks.
Kai puts his on over his head and says, "Some blacksmiths we know can make jewelry and the one who made mine made it pretty big. It fits now, though," Kai says. (13)
Lunick remembers something and pulls Solana away. "We're supposed to be training some new recruits," he says in a whisper. Solana nods.
"You want me to go?" she asks.
"Well, they probably won't be here for a few days. I guess when we get the call, we'll go from there," he says.
They all settle down and get to know each other better as the day goes by.
There, that's done. Well, I guess I'll run down the line of the things in parentheses.
1. I decided to give Pyro some new attire, but if you remember the episode he was in, you'll notice it's really not much.
2. I felt like Gary would miss training after stopping to become a researcher. Trust me, I have no problem with his decision, but if you saw the Diamond and Pearl episodes where Gary appeared (not sure how many episodes there were, though), he seemed like he missed battling and wanted to be in on the action.
3. I decided to put Lunick and Solana in this because there was no clear explanation as to how they're in Fiore to begin with. Since Lunick didn't appear in the anime, I decided to use his Japanese name as his last name. I tend to do that with some characters and for some it works, but not others. For a character that makes the concept work, it would be Paul. Paul Shinji just sounds like it's a name you'd remember. A character that wouldn't make the concept work is Reggie. Reggie's Japanese name is "Reiji" and Reggie Reiji just sounds kind of redundant. So, that's that.
4. Lance called Solana because in some stories and as well as my head canon, the Pokémon Rangers work with the G-Men. Now there are two different types of Rangers in terms of the overall class. There's the type that uses capture stylers, Vatonage stylers, and the Ranger sign as opposed to a Poké Ball. The other type uses Poké Balls. The second type has Forrest and Forrester Franklin and a few other one-time characters. Also, in Black 2 and White 2, Virgil appears in this trainer class. The other type has Jack Walker (movie 9 ranger), Lunick, Solana, Kellyn, Kate, Ben and Summer. Lunick and Solana appear in this crossover. Kellyn and Kate will appear in Jay's crossover. Jack will appear in Cole's crossover. Ben and Summer will appear in Zane's crossover. All will be mentioned in Lloyd's crossover.
5. I decided to change May's surname. Senri is Norman's Japanese name. May is still in her outfit from Emerald.
6. Since this takes place prior to the XY series, Serena still has long hair.
7. They never revealed Virgil's hometown in the anime and I found that rather annoying. I know that Virgil appears in Black 2 and White 2, but his hometown isn't stated there either. Castelia City just seemed to pop in my mind as a hometown for him. I know that a Castelia cone is supposed to heal status ailments, but I've seen other writers have humans eat them. The same is true for a few other food and drink items and certain berries.
8. I don't know if they carry canteens or not. I just said that Solana has one because it seems like something they'd have.
9. I don't know when I'll get the story based off of one of my plays up, but I remembered that I created Sarah to be a love interest for Tyler (aka Connor; from His Distance) some time back. Since Paul doesn't have a sister in His Distance, Sarah will just have a different last name.
10. Please keep in mind that nickel is also a material used to make jewelry, not just the coin.
11. They decided to remove Wu and Garmadon's first names, causing me to get annoyed with them. It's also annoying because until they were given first names, people speculated as to how they were brothers if they had different last names.
12. Nya's birthstone is revealed to be aquamarine, meaning her birthday is in March. Kai's birthstone is (indirectly) revealed to be garnet, meaning his birthday is in January.
13. I'm fully aware that blacksmiths and jewelers are two different professions. However, Kai said that they knew people who could do both and this is true, but, they (Kai and Nya) only know them through their father.
Author's Note: Well, I hope you enjoyed chapter 1, whether this is your first time reading it or not. By the way, if Kai and Nya's parents were alive, that's how old they'd be. I just really decided to rewrite this because it still seemed inexplicable on how Kai and Nya's father would be alive in one world and dead in another. May, tell them the rewrite date and Paul, close!
May: this was rewritten on 7/17/15
Paul: read, review, fave, follow, vote and ask.
