I woke up to Inugami licking my face. The house was silent. All I could hear were my footsteps and Inugami's breathing. I walked into the kitchen with a plate of pancakes on the table. There was a note next to it that read: Visiting the shrine, we'll be back tomorrow. I might as well get ready for school. I ate my pancakes and fed Inugami. He went to sleep when I started putting on my uniform. I left the house earlier than usual. Since I was in no rush, I just hovered my way to school. As soon as I got there, I entered the Battle Base. The room was empty, no one was there. I put my khakkhara against the wall and sat down on the couch. I reached for the remote, but something grabbed it instead. I quickly recognized who it was. "Hey Victor." He showed himself. "Good Morning, god of spinjitsu." He greeted. As always he had on sleek black shades,but was wearing a black suit and red tie instead of uniform. "You're not in uniform?" I asked. "You didn't get the memo? Students who take part in the war don't have to wear uniforms. They need to be battle ready for a random attack." He replied. "Random attack?" I asked. "Whenever a war is going on, enemy schools can attack us at any time." He explained. It makes sense now. I took my khakkhara and stomped it on the ground. My uniform changed into my god robe.

"That khakkhara is pretty nifty." Victor commented. "Yah, but I don't even know what else it could do." I examined it some more. "So how do you already know some of it's capabilities?" Victor asked. "I don't know. It's like I already know them." I put my khakkhara back. I sat down on the couch with Victor. "There's nothing good on." He complained while channel surfing. "News?" I suggested. "Since when did you watch news?" Victor asked. I didn't reply. The door opened. Acid and Michael walked in. "Guess we weren't the first ones in." Acid observed. Michael quickly sped to the comfy chair to the left of the couch. Acid sat in between me and Victor. "Morning, guys. No one's at school yet. Not even Lady Koha. I'd expect her to be the first one here." I shrugged.


The room was dark and misty. All that was visible were the fiery eyes of a mysterious man sitting in a throne. His head was slumped over his fist and his foot was tapping rapidly with impatience. Footsteps were heard in the distance. "Aah. You've finally arrived." Said the man on the throne. The woman bent down before him. "Forgive me for the long wait, Master Waru." The woman said. "Don't worry about that. Now tell me, is everything going as planned?" Waru asked. "Yes, the god has joined the club. I'll get my hands on his khakkhara very soon." The woman replied. "Good, now carry on." The woman stood up and bowed her head. Then she walked out.


Tetsu was the next one to enter. "Hey friends!" He greeted. "Sup Tetsu." I replied back. He looked around. "Lady Koha isn't here yet?" "Probably at like a meeting or something. We wondering the same thing." He sat down at the couch to the right of our couch. "What's on TV." He asked. "Nothing, like always." Victor replied. "Ever tried the news?" Tetsu asked. "You too?" Victor sighed in annoyance. We heard heavy footsteps upstairs. "Those footsteps can only mean one thing..." Acid said with a serious face. "He's here..." Michael said right after. "Get ready guys..." Victor went invisible. The door was sent flying off of it's hinges. Standing at the doorway was a man clad in heavy armor, about 6 feet tall. Only one man had those features. "Good morning, worms!" Ragdoll's voiced boomed. "You broke the door." Said Victor reappearing. "That doesn't matter." He said stealing Michael's seat on the comfy chair. "What are you doing here?" Acid asked. "Glad you asked," Ragdoll cleared his throat, "Lady Koha has asked me to be your instructor for today." He answered. "WHAT!?" Said the two siblings, Carlos and Megan at the door-less doorway.

"Yup! School wars have started, and since i'm the strongest in the entire school, she asked me to help with the first raid." He finished. "Raid? We're doing a raid?" I asked. "That's the thing about a school war. You gotta strike the enemy before the get us. Frighten them, take their weapons, foil their plans. Now, get ready. We're raiding before school starts." Ragdoll put a map on the table. "But the entire club isn't even here yet." I tried to protest. "What's wrong? Are you scared, god?" He looked up at me. Nothing could be seen past his dark hood. It was like staring at an empty void. "Of course not!" I replied. "Then get ready!" He looked at the map. I picked up my khakkhara. I noticed Cadiz walk in. He looked at me, then walked towards the map on the table. I joined them at the table. "So here's B.S.H. They have a cellar right behind their school. We can sneak in through there and then attack once we're inside. We take whatever is valuable to them." Victor cleared his throat. "With all do respect, sir, I think that's a very scatterbrained strategy." Everyone looked at him. "What do you think we should do then, Paleman."Ragdoll challenged.

"B.S.H. is a heavily guarded school. Getting past the gate is hard enough, the guards are high ranked warriors. So, i'll use my invisibility to take them out stealthily. After that, we'll get in through the gates. There will be more guards in the area, so Acid can use his toxic smoke cloud to knock them all out. Once they're asleep, we'll get behind the school. There aren't guards there, but there are ninjas hidden in the trees. However, they only have visual of the back of the school. By the front door, we'll trip the alarm, so the entire school gets evacuated. Since everyone on campus, including the guards and ninjas will be outside. Then we'll get into the cellar. After we get inside we'll take all their weapons or any secret plans or files. We need to be quick, because they'll soon find out the alarm was a diversion. We'll leave through the cellar, and get back to the gates once everyone is inside." Victor finished. "How do you know so much about B.S.H.?" Asked Michael. "My dad used to go there. Do we all get the plan?" "It's a little complicated but it'll work. We'll all go." Ragdoll answered. "No. Only a few of us will go. It'll be quicker. Also, we need some of us here to guard the place, in case we get raided while we're out." Victor finished. "Dude, how high is your IQ?" Tetsu asked. "When does the number line end?" Victor bragged with a smirk. "All right, so Acid and I will definitely go. Kaz and Michael can come too. Kaz's khakkhara and Michael's speed will be useful. Ragdoll and Tetsu should stay here, because their strength would prove useful in protection." We all nodded.

We took half an hour to prepare, then we were off. We arrived at the school. Just as Victor said, there were guards. "All right, here I go." He went invisible and took out the guards with stealth, just as planned. We used their keys to unlock the gate. We sneaked in. There were guards surrounding the area. Victor nodded to Acid. Acid created a toxic fog which knocked out all of the guards. After it cleared, we went and tripped the alarm. We hid in a bush while the school evacuated. We saw the ninjas leaving their trees, too. We quickly went around back. "The cellar's locked, Kaz you're up." I pointed my khakkhara at the lock, and it burst. We opened the cellar and quickly got into the school. It was empty. We took their weapons, a map of NCA, then we were off. We hid in the bush again. The things we took were in a void pouch. it stored the items in it inside another dimension. After everyone was back inside along with the unconscious guards, we made our escape. We made it back to NCA without trouble. We went into the battle base. There were a group of troops tied up in a corner. "Good thinking, Victor. your plan actually worked." Ragdoll said with his foot over an unconscious body. All the other members of the club were here too.

Victor emptied out the void pouch on the table. Ragdoll picked up the map of NCA. "So they were planning to raid us too." Ragdoll put the map back n the table and picked up the weapons. Swords and spears made out of steel. "I'll keep these safe." He walked out of the room. Dasheng was sitting on an unconscious body. "Ragdoll told us your plan Victor. Surprisingly it went perfectly. Of course I would've done better, but good job." Cadiz was reading a scroll silently on his own. I sat next to him. "You want to see your sister again?" I asked. "Nissho? Of course!" I nodded. I stomped my khakkhara on the ground and we teleported to the forest. "Follow me." We trekked for a while until we arrived at the shrine. "This is a secret location, don't tell anyone." I said. Cadiz nodded. We both entered the shrine. Nissho, who was ten now, was resting with a towel around her neck. She was taking a break from training. She had on a light blue and gold gi, with a short skirt, and black tights. "It's been a while since I've been here." I said to Cadiz. "Where's Nissho?" He asked. I pointed to her resting. Cadiz looked at her. He slowly walked over to her. Nissho opened her eyes. She sat up. "Hey Kaz!" She ran past Cadiz and hugged me. "Hey, Nissho." "It's been a while." She said. She looked at Cadiz who was staring at her.

"Who's he?" Nissho asked. "You don't remember me?" Cadiz asked. "Nissho, that's your brother." I answered. "That's not Hikari." Nissho replied. Cadiz walked towards her. "It's me Hikari, Cadiz." He said trying to jog her memory. "I feel like I heard that name before." Nissho rubbed her chin. "You are my brother!" She smiled. They both hugged. It felt good to see two people finally reunite with each other. "Mom just came back a week ago too!" She said enthusiastically. "M-mother?" Cadiz asked. "Wait here!" Nissho ran inside. Cadiz stood up and walked over to me. "Is Hikari here too?" He asked. "He went training with the green master. I'm not sure if he's back yet." I replied. "That's fine." He said. He sat down waiting for Nissho to return. "Nissho, the cookies will burn if I don't get them now. This better important." We heard a voice from inside. "Mom look who's here!" Nissho pointed at Cadiz who was sitting. Cadiz looked up at his mom. Mrs. Garmadon walked towards him. She didn't say anything.


I was sitting face-to-face with her. I stared into her bright blue eyes. "Are you really Cadiz?" She asked. "Umm." I didn't know what to say. Before I could reply, her arms were wrapped around me. I hugged her back. None of us said anything. "Um, I'll give you too some privacy." Kaz walked inside. "It's been so long." We broke from the hug. She had tears in her eyes. I looked behind her. Nissho was just watching us with a lollipop in her mouth. I couldn't say anything. She ran her fingers through my hair. "How you've grown." She wiped the tears from her eyes. "Please, come inside." We stood up and she lead me inside. Nissho stayed outside to train I think.

Kaz was talking to a robot boy. He turned and faced me. "You must be Cadiz!" The robot got up and held out his hand. I didn't know whether to shake it or not. I shook it either way. "Yah, who are you?" I asked. "Name's Alex. Kaz was just introducing you." He sat back down. I sat at an empty chair. Mom took out the batch of cookies she recently baked. They were gone in fifteen minutes. My mom didn't stop looking at me. "Only if your father and brother were here to see how much you've grown." I stood up. "Um, Kaz and I need to get back to NCA." I said. Kaz stood up too. "Of course! Just make sure you stop by again!" My mom said. We hugged one last time and Kaz teleported us back to NCA.


"Just on time!" I said. "So how was it like, to see your mom and sister again?" I asked Cadiz. "It was good, thanks Kaz." "Anytime!" I replied. We headed down to the Battle Base. There was a new door installed. Inside, Ragdoll and Lady Koha were discussing war plans. "Hello Cadiz. And Kaz." She greeted. I put my khakkhara on the wall. "Hey." We greeted back. "I hope we're not late." Cadiz said. "Right on time." She said checking her watch. "Your classes are about to start. The others just went." Cadiz and I got what we need for our classes and headed off together. We met up with the others who were talking in a group. "You're back." Acid said to us. I nodded. "Classes were just about to start." Victor said. We all headed to our first class.


I continued trudging through the hot desert. The beating sun was normal for me now since I've been walking here for a few days. I was wearing a desert robe with a hood on. I had several canteens of water and a some boxes of trail mix. I had the Kusanagi sword in my waist strap. Just a couple hundred more miles until I reach Ninjago. I ate a handful of trail mix.


Well that was Chapter 3. Sorry for the inactivity. I haven't upload for a month now I think. Well here it is. Sorry for the long wait.
