Sensei caught a sight of a storm coming, and judging by those rumbling black clouds, it seemed to be a bad one. The aged master called out to Lloyd who was reading a comic book on the deck. "Lloyd!" He called.
Lloyd turned his attention from the graphic novel and to his uncle, "Yeah, Sensei?"
"Get inside, theres a storm approaching, and a bad one by the looks of it," Sensei spoke solemnly.
The green ninja was confused by what he meant, but as soon as he caught sight of the stormy dark clouds up ahead, he jumped from his seat and immediately ran inside, he was obviously frightened.
Sensei looked at the storm grimly, the clouds growing massive, and more dark, lightning even began to come down from the sky. "Something is very wrong," he muttered.
He then joined his nephew inside the comfort and safety of the Bounty, the storm growing larger, and more threatening by the minute.
Kai never knew he would need the ability to navigate.
Sure it seemed like a useful skill, but what would a blacksmiths son want to do with it? For one thing, the only thing he was taught was how to forge weapons, and how to be a ninja, and he was only halfway through his training. So why would it come in handy now? Well for one thing, he was on a mysterious, unknown island, trying to track a Dragon that had taken something that had belonged to him. Many would think this was nothing but a piece of cake, but really, they didn't have time to think about their surroundings, because by the looks of it, Kai was lost in some endless jungle, and really had no hope of finding a way out.
Well, first thing was first, he had to find that Dragon that took the parchment from him, without it, the whole point of the quest would have been for nothing, Sensei had assigned them one job, and thanks to him, they all were going to fail. Why hadn't I just left it back home? he thought. Then I wouldn't be in this mess. He decided to stop thinking and start taking action, nothing was going to get done if he just stood there looking around, he had to at least try to look, so he began to rummage through the island, in search of the dragon mistress. As he walked throughout the place, he felt an uneasy feeling that someone or something was watching him, and he did not like it at all. The feeling itself ran chills up his spine, and at times like that, he wished he were his friend Zane because it felt literally cold to him. Yet he continued on, looking at his surroundings, which seemed to take away the uncomfortable feeling.
Though he seemed to notice that while looking around, the place seemed to be, somehow familiar to him, as if he'd been there before, but how could he? He had never heard of any other place outside of Ninjago until Lloyd discovered the parchment in the Bounty, leading on to the quest, and now leading to where he was now, so here he was, in some strange place that somehow seemed memorable to him according to his brain.
Must be playing tricks on me he inferred, shaking the thought out of his head. As he walked, creatures, mostly reptilian seemed to depart themselves from the shadows of the trees and bushes, looking after Kai in curiousness, wondering, What was he doing here? Kai instantly came to a halt, the feeling of being watched coming back to him, he turned around, only his eyes saw nothing. The creatures have retreated back into the shadows. He turned forward, glancing around for whatever hid themselves to come out again, but nothing did. Kai kept moving, he was unsure of why he knew this place, all he wanted to do was get out of it.
Not without the prophecy you wont his mind said. He sighed, his thoughts were correct, he had to procure the parchment before he could leave, or else he would've failed everyone, not just his friends, or Sensei, but the whole world. "How am I to find that prophecy when I cant even-" he paused. He had come to a clearing, where there looked to be an oasis, and in the middle of it was a clear water pond, his eyes widened. He sighed in relief, he had not drunken anything ever since he began his quest, his mouth felt as dry as sandpaper, he was just dying to get a sip of water. So with no hesitation, he went forth towards the pond and bent down to take a sip, but once he did, his taste buds felt as if they could kiss him, the water itself tasted like sweet, pure nectar, so good, that Kai thought it had come directly from God's pond.
He finished drinking and stared at himself through the water, it was crystal clear, like any other water, but it was too clear. This was no ordinary water, and he knew it. Upon seeing his reflection, he also something else, something, large, behind him. His eyes widen, and he turned to face an adult-sized Dragon. She was twice his size, making him feel small, he had never seen a Dragon as big as this. She had bright orange and red markings on her head and body, her wings were bright orange and yellow, like a sunset, and she had velvet horns on her head. Kai gulped and backed away, he really didn't want to upset this one. The Dragon stared down at him and examined him, taking a sniff, Kai just stood still. The Dragon's slit eyes turned into normal pupils and it picked him up with its mouth and began to carry him off somewhere, "AHH! Where are you taking me!"
The Dragon roared and flew upward throughout the jungle, Kai could only dangle from its mouth to who knows where. Why do I always get myself into these messes? he thought, miserably.
