This is the shortest chapter in hear so it makes me kinda sad. Anyways Disclaimer I do not own Ninjago.

Chapter 4: End of Evil(for now)

After our small defeat at the hands of Samukai we realized that our business laid elsewhere. We re-collected ourselves and ran off to the fire temple. "Kai! Sensei!" Cole yells into the fire temple as I look around for their auras. As they look at me I shake my head. They then look to Zane for the location of the sword of fire.

"The sword of fire was here, as well as our friends but I only sense loss. We are too late." He says flipping of his hood. "The elemental weapons have left this realm and are now in the Underworld. The end is drawing near."

"Great," Cole says with an angry sigh, "the one place no mortal can cross over."

"What about my Kai?" Robin asks in a hoarse voice. "There is no way he could have crossed over."

"We may not be able to cross over," We here Kai's voice say. The temple splits in two to reveal him and another girl on crimson dragons back.

"Ahhhhhh!" Cole screams jumping behind a pillar as the dragon roars. I hear Leah give a quick and almost silent giggle at this.

"Our father used to tell us stories about the dragons. They were mystical creatures who belonged to both worlds and ferried between them." The girl says.

"Who what, are you insane?" Cole says shaking his head.

"Once he realized we were trying to protect the sword of fire, ha he actually became quite a softie." Kai explains as the dragon nuzzles him. He laughs. "Knock it off." The girl laughs as well.

"Do you like-"Jay says in the same hoarse as Robin but is cut off by a cough.

"He cannot talk, but he wants to know if you like blue." Zane clarifies. I'm about to smack both of them when the girl responds.

"It's my favorite color."

"Yes." He says in the same voice. Then he flinches for my attack. Instead I cross my arms and roll my eyes. He can have this one, but only because I can tell he really likes her. She then jumps off the dragon.

"Nya?" Kai says sadly flipping off his hood.

"This is good bye, isn't it?" She finishes for him. He gives a sad nod. "Come back to me in one piece, okay?" He nods, "I don't want to have to run the store on my own."

"I promise I won't be gone for long." He says getting on the dragon.

"I'll keep a candle lit outside our shop until you return."

"Don't worry." Robin says in the same hoarse voice then gives a cough. "He'll be back before bed time." She then joins him on the dragons back followed by Jay. We then realize there is no more room.

"Uh you guys go on ahead. There's not enough room for all of us on that," Cole says motioning to the dragon, "thing."

"You're right, Cole, but I got a way to fix that." Kai responds. About an hour later, thanks to Kai's dragon, we are all in the air in our own dragons. Everyone was having fun except for Cole who is holding onto the seat for dear life. "Easy. Not so fast."

"Who is willing to bet Cole has peed himself!" Robin says in her normal voice. Apparently the air pressure up this high has regained her voice at least temporarily. At least six hands go in the air.

"Whoa! This is awesome." Jay says.

"Yes, this is quite fun." Zane says.

"So peaceful." I say from my dragon who is flying in a similar manner to the fans dance.

"Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo!" Kai cheers from his.

"So how do the dragons cross over to the Underworld?" Cole asks sounding more relaxed.

"I think we're about to find out!" Kai yells as the dragons dive back into the clouds. We all start to scream as the dragons spin in place making an elemental tornado of their own and going through the now opened portal.

"Is it over?" Cole asks with his eyes shut tight.

"Hardly. I hope these dragons know what they're doing." Kai says as our dragons split up into two different sections. After going through a tunnel lined with purple crystals our dragons come back together. "They're speeding up. Hold on." We all scream as the dragons come to a halt throwing us all off.

"Solid ground! We made it!" Cole says happily. I look father to see floating masses of rock and a large temple.

"Sensei's inside." Zane says looking at the temple.

"They're expecting us." Kai says. I then realize that somehow all of our outfits have changed. Instead of having the dragon emblem on our suits there was now the design of a golden dragon. Since there is no other way across we swing from stalactite to stalactite until we are over the temple. A small chunk of rock falls from the stalactite Kai is holding and falls to the ground below, knocking out a skeleton. As we find more narrow structures Jay yells something we can't understand.

"Can I be the first to say it's been an absolute pleasure since Jay lost his voice?" Cole says. Kai, Leah, and I nod our agreements. We then look up to see that we are hanging on spider legs.

"Sp-sp." Robin stutters before fainting.

"Whoa!" The rest of us yell falling to the ground below. The impact makes Robin wake up and rub her head.

"Ninja!" One of the skeleton yell as the rest surround us. We all regroup standing back to back.

"I count ten bone heads to every one of us." Cole says calculating.

"I think we can take them." Robin says in her normal voice fully recovered. Then the spiders drop down. Robin faints again, but is quickly caught by Kai. As soon as he catches her she snaps back up as good as new.

"Uh oh. Anyone got any bright ideas?" Kai asks as the army closes in. We are all silent. "Any ideas? I'm still all ears." Jay then says something that no one can understand. "Huh?"

"You feel a weird sensation?" Cole questions.

"No" Jay responds in a raspy voice.

"You ate an odd crustacean?" Zane guesses.

"No."

"Your mom is on probation?" Leah says, everyone just face palms at that one. Jay tries to say it again with no results.

"I got it, I got it. Two natives on vacation, huh?" Kai says proudly.

"That was worse than Leah's guess." I mutter.

"Tornado of Creation!" Jay says raspy at first but then regains his voice.

"Oh." We all say in unison.

"Welcome back" Zane says patting him on the back.

"But it could lead to disastrous consequences." Cole says.

"We're about to have a disastrous consequence." Kai responds looking at the incoming army.

"Let's do this. Earth!" Cole says spinning into his tornado.

"Fire!"

"Ice!"

"Lightning!"

"Wind!"

"Spirit!"

"Light!"

" Ninja-Go!" We all shout in unison joining the tornados together. It becomes one large tornado of destruction as it sucks the entire skeleton up. As it cools off and we return to normal all of the skeletons are now in a giant bone ferries wheel.

"Come on, there's no time to waste." Kai says running in. We follow after him to see Sensei battling Samukai. We try to go and help him, but Kai holds up back. "No. This is Sensei's fight." We watch as the battle progresses. I see the weapons do some pretty awesome things. The sword shoots fire, the shuriken freeze the sword, the nun chucks shoot lightning, the fans are able to fly on their own and attack four times simultaneously before returning, the staff blinds its foe, the whip summons a whirl wind similar to Leah's elemental tornado, and the scythe opens a fissure in the ground. After a few more attacks Samukai wins.

"Bring me the seven weapons." The man known as Lord Garmadon says from his throne.

"No. You will obey me now." Samukai says in revolt. This makes Garmadon laugh.

"No one can handle all of their power at once." Sensei says joining us. The weapons in Samukai's hands, along with the fans floating around him, are shaking violently.

"Selfish fool. Did you think I wouldn't plan on your betrayal?" Garmadon says.

"What's happening to me?" Samukai cries.

"You've fallen right into my master plan. Not even I can handle all their power. But now that they are combined it'll create a vortex through space and time allowing me to finally escape this ghastly place." Garmadon Samukai is lifted up. With one final scream Samukai disappears in a cloud of smoke. A vortex then opens as Garmadon jumps down.

"Father would not want you to do this, brother." Sensei says.

"Father is no longer here. Good and evil, there has always been a balance. But, where I go, the balance can be destroyed. Soon I will be strong enough to possess the four weapons so I may recreate the world in my image. You. You were always his favorite." He says before leaving. I don't know if it's just me, but he seems to have some childhood issues.

"He is gone, but he will return." Sensei says flipping down.

"Then we'll be ready for him." Kai says picking up the sword of fire. We all following in suite picking up the weapons of our elements. As the fans float over to me they give off what sounds like a purr.

"Did you miss me?" I say taking them down from the air.

"And keep an eye out in case he has any more of his evil plans." Cole says trying to sound like the leader again.

"Then I have done my part. The balance has been restored. For now." Sensei says.

As we return back to our world via dragon I watch as the clouds of evil disperse from the land. Right now we were heading back to Kai's village to pick up Nya.

"Kai!" She yells happily running out of the house and hugging her brother.

"Hey, my turn." Jay and Robin say in unison. Nya and Jay hug as well as Robin and Kai. Leah and I roll our eyes at their actions. The crowd cheers as the rest of us hop off our dragons.

"I'm so happy your back." Nya says after she breaks away from Jay.

"Ha, for now. But it's not over. Lord Garmadon will return." Kai says in a serious manner causing the crowd to stop cheering.

"And we'll be ready for him." Cole says walking up.

"Yeah!" All of us cheer high fiving with the golden weapons causing all of us to fly backward.

"Okay. We gotta remember not to do that again" Kai says sitting up.

"Ugh. Good idea." Cole agrees.

"Yeah we'll stick to high- fives instead." Jay says.

" Agreed." Zane says causing everyone to laugh. "Was that a joke?"

End here guys. I won't be able to get to the Rise of the snakes until next week. I have big plans for then though. The plot line gives me plenty of space to put new material and it's where the relationships start kicking in. On to my reviews.

Inkheart531- Phew. I was so nervous when I put her in last chapter, but now I think I have her personality down. (::)(::)(::)

TheBlueBoxGirl- I am considering having her as a side character later on. I will most likely haft to reduce her age though. You also seem to be the one who is in love with my cookies so you get extra chocolate chips. (:::)(:::)(:::)

AnimalsMusicandNinjago-thanks again for that line. I'm going to change it as soon as I post this chapter. And thanks for the outline for this chapter it helped me get it done faster. (::)(::)(::)

Till next time~Kitty
