Okay, wow, I didn't expect this story to get so much attention! I'm going to be honest, after my other story didn't do as well as I had hoped, I got a little discouraged. I figured that I'd post another story that I had been thinking about for a long time as a side project, but after seeing how well this story is doing, I think I'll split my attention between the two more equally. After seeing how much people liked this story, I decided to immediately start writing the next chapter. Jaylen13 said, "This is a great concept but what throws me off is that Danny is normal and everyone else is lego." I needed a good reason for the Ninja to take Danny back to the Bounty. It was a great way to get everyone suspicious of Danny before he even woke up as well. I also didn't want to have to describe Danny as a lego. I would just like to thank everyone who clicked on this story, favorited, followed, or reviewed. I would like to especially thank the reviewers for their kind words of encouragement. When you see dialogue in italics, it means that the character is thinking it. I don't know what else to say, but I should probably get on with the story since that's what you're all here for.

"So what's wrong with the kid, Zane?" Cole asked, curious as to why Zane was so worried about a few scratches and bruises.
"While I was cleaning up some of his scratches, I noticed that there was a strange substance in his blood," Zane answered. He lifted up the cloth that had some blood on it. Cole took the cloth and examined it. After a moment, he noticed a little green mixed into the red. "My scanners didn't recognize the substance."
"Wait, your scanners didn't recognize it? I thought they could recognize any known substance!" Jay said, clearly surprised.
"You are correct, Jay. My scanners can recognize any known substance, but this is a substance that I've never seen before."
"So, Zane found an unknown substance in the kid's blood, and it could be dangerous. Do I have that right?" Kai said.
"Yes, Kai," Zane answered simply. "The best thing we can do is let him rest. I'll take the samples of his blood and study them. Let's just hope that it's not dangerous." Zane grabbed the cloths with the kid's blood on it and walked out of the room. Kai, Cole, and Jay gave each other a somber look before they left the medical bay as well.
Danny groaned as he opened his eyes. He held his aching head in his hand. After a moment, he removed his hand so he could look at his surroundings. He appeared to be in a medical bay of some sort. Danny looked down to see that he was laying on a cot. "What happened?" Danny asked himself. He only remembered a giant purple snake with arms, but instead of hands, he had claws, and he had a blood blossom in one of his claws. Try as he might, he couldn't remember much else.
Danny slid of the cot that he had woken up on and walked around the room. There was a cabinet filled with all sorts of medical supplies. On top of the cabinet were things like cotton swabs, cloths, bandages, and some pain killers. Besides that, there wasn't much to the room. "Where am I?" Danny thought. "Maybe I should go ghost and see where I am."
Before Danny could say his catchphrase, he heard footsteps coming down the hallway. Danny didn't know what to do. Sure, he could get back in the cot and pretend to be asleep, but that won't answer any of his questions. The footsteps got closer. He decided to sit back down on the cot. The footsteps grew even louder until, finally, a girl appeared in the doorway. Her torso was blocky, her skin was yellow, and she had claws for hands.
The girl gasped in surprise. "Oh, you're awake! How are you feeling?"
"I feel fine. Where am I?"
"You're on the Destiny's Bounty."
"The what?"
"The Destiny's Bounty. It's a ship."
Danny opened his mouth to ask another, but the girl interrupted him. "I have to go get the guys. They want to ask you some questions." The girl walked out of the room before Danny could protest.
"Great. Just great," Danny said to himself.
A few minutes later, the girl walked back into the room with four other guys. One of the guys was in a black ninja gi with silver shoulder pads. He had long, black, messy hair. Another one was a brunette with spiky hair and a red ninja gi with golden shoulder pads. The one with a blue ninja gi with silver shoulder pads had auburn hair. The last one wore a white ninja gi with golden shoulder pads, and he had platinum blond hair in a crew cut. The guys also had blocky torsos, yellow skin, and claws for hands.
"So, kid, what's your name?" the one in black asked.
"Danny." The guys seemed to glance at each other.
"Can you explain what you were doing out in the Forest of Tranquility? And why you look like that?" the one in black said, gesturing towards Danny.
"Um, no. I don't even know what the Forest of Tranquility is," Danny answered. It was true. He didn't remember anything from the other day other than the giant snake. The Ninja's suspicions weren't getting any better. They knew this kid had something to do with the ghost that pythor had summoned. They looked the same aside from a few minor differences, and they sounded the same. The boy, now known as Danny, showed up as soon as the ghost disappeared. The Ninja knew they were connected, they just didn't know how they were connected.
"While Zane was patching you up," the one in black said, waving his arm at the one in white, "He found something weird in your blood."
Zane nodded. "I was unable to recognize the substance."
"We were wondering if you have any idea what it might be," the one in blue said.
Danny knew what they were talking about. They were talking about the ectoplasm that was in his blood. "Um, no I don't think so," Danny answered, trying to make his tone sound calm and honest, but ultimately he failed.
"Well, I think that's all the questions that we have for now. We want you to stay here for a while, so we can keep an eye on you; be sure the stuff in your blood doesn't hurt you," the one in black said. Everyone except for the girl left the room.
"My name is Nya by the way," Nya said.
"Who were those guys?" Danny asked.
"Well, the one in red is my brother, Kai, the one in black is Cole, you already know Zane, and the one in blue is Jay."
Danny looked down at the floor. He might not have known what happened last night, but he knew that he was a long way from home. He was definitely in another dimension.
Pythor seethed with anger as he flip through the book. "There has to be some kind of spell in here that can create a permanent portal!" Pythor continued to flip through the book.
"Why don't we just give up on the whole ghost plan. We all saw how well that worked out," Skales spat.
"I thought that any old ghost would do, but I was wrong, Skales," Pythor responded.
"What do you mean?" Skales asked, clearly confused.
"I need the portal to stay open, and I need it to hunt down an evil ghost," Pythor said. Pythor flipped through the book before finally finding what he was looking for. "Aha! It says, " To make a portal to the Ghost Zone permanent, all you need to do is add the ectoplasm of a ghost!"
"And where will we find another ghost?" Skales asked. "We lost the first one remember?"
"I'm willing to bet that those ninja found our ghost," Pythor said.
"Are you really willing to take that risssk, Pythor?"
"Well, we don't have to risk it my friend," Pythor said. Skales sent him a questioning look. "I sent a few Serpentine out to get the Specter's Eye." Before Skales could ask, Pythor answered him. "The Specter's Eye is mystical crystal ball that can track any ghost. They should be back with it any moment now." Pythor smirked when a group of Serpentine walked in. One of them held a green crystal ball that glowed a soft green.
"Here'sss what you were looking for, Pythor," the one holding the Specter's Eye said as he handed the crystal ball to Pythor. The snakes ran out in a hurry.
Pythor looked at the crystal ball. There was a map of Ninjago, and somewhere not too far from where they currently were was a red dot. "Gotcha!" Pythor whispered to himself.
"Maybe I should explore the Destiny's Bounty," Danny thought. He had gotten awfully bored of staring at the wall. "It can't hurt to just fly around invisibly for a little while, right?" Danny said to reassure himself.
Danny got off of the cot that he had been sitting on for far to long and said his catchphrase. "I'm going ghost!" The rings formed around his torso and in a flash, he was Danny Phantom. Danny turned himself invisible and intangible and flew out of the room. He flew around the magnificent ship known as the Destiny's Bounty. He flew down a little bit to the deck. He could see the Ninja that he had met earlier training. They dodged punching bags, practiced against dummies, and spared with each other. Danny flew through the rest of the ship, trying to get familiar with the new surroundings. He didn't know how long he'd be here, and he didn't know how long his secret would last either.
After seeing all of the rooms in the Bounty, Danny went back to the medical bay. As soon as he sat back down on the cot, something hit the ship, causing it to shake. Danny got up and ran outside on the deck to see what the ship had hit, and to his surprise, he saw a bunch of snakes.
I am the worst. Leaving it on a cliff hanger. I typed this chapter much faster than I thought I would. The next chapter should come out soon as well. I don't have too much to say here. Um… does anyone like the music from the Pokemon anime? If you do, then you should check out my Soundcloud account. I don't think you have to have an account to listen to other people's tracks. Even if you do, it's free. I just thought that I should include this since that music really helps me focus. Maybe it could help someone else focus. Anyways, bye!
