Happy New Year, everyone! It's VickyT36 here with my first story of 2019, enjoy!
Chapter 1: Emergency
It had been a whole year since the Ninja saved Ninjago from Lord Garmadon's reign, and things were going great. The Ninjas were enjoying the peace, so they were able to relax a little, Princess Harumi was taking self defense lessons from Master Wu.
And Master Wu was in great spirits and in health, since he aged back to normal "old" master self. Today was actually the official one year anniversary of the day Lord Garmadon were defeated.
So to celebrate the day, the Royal Family was going to throw a huge festival outside their palace that everyone was invited to. There was going to be paper lanterns, balloons, streamers, all kinds of foods, music and dancing.
And the Ninja, the Elemental Masters, and everyone who helped them would be the guests of honor. Currently the Ninja were helping Harumi and staff of the palace decorate the festival grounds.
"This is going to be an awesome party." Said Kai, as he hung up some streamers.
"Yeah it was nice of your parents have the festival here, Harumi." added Jay, as he and Lloyd set a table down.
"Well mother and father felt having it here would bring us closer to the people." said Harumi, setting a tablecloth down on a table.
"By the way, how're the lessons from Master Wu going?" asked Cole.
"It's great, it's tiring, but I'm learning a lot." Harumi answered.
"Trust us, Rumi. Master Wu taught us everything we know soon you'll be up to our level of fighting." Nya told her.
Harumi smiled at hearing that.
Meanwhile far away from the city, there was an old seemingly abandoned village. But the village was far from abandoned. There were many people there, and they worked for one man, Dr. Rogers. The men wore green scrubs, while the women wore green nurse dresses with nurse hats.
They all worked in the largest building in the village. It looked like a raggedy shack on the outside, but on the inside it was it was clean, pristine, and looked like an ordinary office building.
Inside certain rooms were laboratories where the workers were working with biological substances. As they worked, Dr. Rogers walked in. He wore green scrubs like the other men workers, but he wore a white lab coat over them.
"How's the testing coming?" Asked Dr. Rogers.
"We're really close to a break through, Dr. Rogers. But we're getting low on blood samples." informed Dr. Maul, the man in charge of all the doctors.
"Then go out and grab some more." Dr. Rogers ordered.
About ten of the workers put on surgical masks, and filled their pockets with syringes. "Remember doesn't matter the type, just collect human blood." said Dr. Rogers.
"Yes, Doctor." understood Nurse Payne, the woman in charge of all the nurses, and they left.
Back in the city, the festival was in full swing. Music was playing, people were dancing, and talking to each other, all the food was laid out, and the Royal family, Ninja and their allies were sitting in the front of the crowd.
"This is a great party." said Pixal.
"Indeed, a great way to celebrate." agreed Zane.
"Especially after such a great victory." added Master Wu, sipping his tea.
"How're you feeling, Master?" asked Kai.
"Ah, better than ever. Getting my age reverse was quite refreshing." Wu answered.
Everyone laughed. "I'm gonna grab another piece of cake, you guys want anything?" asked Cole. The others said they were good. Cole walked over to the dessert table, and began cutting a slice of chocolate cake.
"Um, excuse me, Earth Ninja?" A voice asked. Cole turned around, and saw a little boy holding a pencil and notebook.
"Hey there, little guy." Said Cole. "Uh I was wondering could I get your autograph?" Asked the boy.
"Sure, and who's this going to?" Asked Cole, taking the notebook and pencil. "Who's this going to?"
"Put to my big fan, Harvey." said the boy.
Cole wrote that down, and gave it back to him.
"Thanks." said Harvey, and he went back to his parents.
Cole and then got his cake and went back to the others. Just as everyone was enjoying the fun, two small balls dropped down from the sky. "What on earth?" Wondered Misako. The balls exploded, and the whole festival grounds filled with smoke.
Everyone began screaming, panicking, and running away. "(Groans), the peace couldn't last till the festival was over?" Complained Kai. Then the doctors and nurses came down, and started attacking the people.
"Either way, duty calls." Said Zane. And the Ninja pulled on their hoods and sprang into action.
"Don't worry this won't hurt a bit." said a nurse. Two doctors were pinning down a man, as she drew some blood from his arm.
"Perfect." she said.
"Hey!" The nurse turned around and saw Jay standing before her.
"You really should give someone a warning before you give someone a shot." he said, and he began fighting her.
"Who are you guys?" Nya asked a doctor, while the two fought.
"Just some professional medical workers doing on job. By the way, could you spare some blood?" asked the doctor, bringing out a syringe.
Nya answered by kicking the syringe out of his hand. And it wasn't just the Ninja fighting, Pixal got her Samurai X suit and was batting the doctors and nurses, Skylor and the other Elemental Masters pitched in.
And Misako, Master Wu, Harumi, and Dareth fought them off too, and got the bystanders to safety.
"We got enough samples yet?" one of the nurses called out.
"Yep." answered a doctor. "Then let's get out of here." she said.
She reached into her pocket, and pulled out a small remote. She pressed a button, and a helicopter flew over them and dropped down four rope ladders. "Thanks, for the samples." called a doctor, as he went up the ladder.
Once all the smoke had cleared, the helicopter was gone, and so were the crazy doctors and nurses. "What was that all about?" Wondered Harumi.
"I don't know, but they seemed to be after blood." Said Zane.
A lot of people were rubbing their arms, and some were feeling a little lightheaded. "Well whatever happened they're gone now and the party's over." Said Lloyd.
"Maybe they left something behind." Suggested Misako.
They looked around, until Kai found a clue. "Hey, guys, over here." He called. The others came over, and saw a small white business card with a blue stripe on it on the ground.
"Those creeps had a business card?" asked Nya.
Lloyd picked it up, and read it. "Want to be part of a the greatest Ninjago takeover? Come talk to The Plague Doctor."
"The Plague Doctor?" wondered Cole.
"Well it's official, peace has ended." said Jay.
"That card wouldn't happen to have an address on it would it?" asked Kai.
Lloyd turned it over, and in small print was the address. "It's too small, I can't see it, Zane can you see?" asked Lloyd, giving the card to Zane.
He took and his eyes magnified the card. "It says, Rubble Grove."
"Rubble Grove, where's that?" asked Jay.
"It's an old village outside the city, however it's been abandoned for years." Misako informed.
"Well it looks like we're going there." said Kai.
