Chapter 7: Meetings

Pythor stood in the abandoned warehouse the snakes had been using as cover from the villagers; a sneer across his face, bearing his fangs in disgust. The nerve I'd those insignificant, boorish, brainless humans to take the sacred Fang Blade. Those warm blooded fools could not begin to comprehend the power they possess! His mental rant was interrupted by the entrance of Skales; his second in command.

"My king," He nodded in respect; a sign of rank with within the Serpentine culture. "Here isssssss the recording you asssssked for." He presented the binocular equipment to his superior.

"Excellent." The Anacondrai general commented as he took the device from the Hypnobrai snakes hand, "If we are to succeed at capturing the fang blade; then we must be fully aware of our enemies weaknesses. Call the tribe leaders to meet me here at once."

"Yesssssss ssssssire." Skales hissed as he made his way toward the various groups that had gathered towards the back of the building. The look of irritation only showed when his back was turned.

Pythor gnawed on his lower lip in anticipation. Soon, they would have all four fang blades under their position and be capable of unleashing the Great Devourer; putting an end to that pathetic "human race". They would receive their dues for being trapped underground for years upon end.

The rest of the serpentine tribe leaders gathered around as Pythor started the tape: the technology designed to project the video footage on a holographic big screen.

The footage rolled until it caught sight of the red ninja with a girl in a heated argument with another woman.

"Wait- who is that?" Skalidor pointed with his staff to the burgundy haired teenager.

"Isn't it obvious?" Acidicus puffed as he rolled his eyes, "Out enemy is gaining allies."

"These ninja are growing to be quite a nuisance." Fangtom rasped in his Transylvanian accent.

"As long as we can keep the ninja occupied- we can take the fang blade with little conflict." Pythor reassured as the video began to change from a moment looking at the white ninja in normal attire to another girl.

Python's glowing crimson eyes locked to the screen as a raven haired girl drew from the crowd with a satin scarf in her hand. With one look he was entranced, a burning sensation boiling under his skin he thought he would never experience. Her clothes were modest enough but as the music picked up they seemed to shrink in his vision. The skirt shortened and the fabric of her clothes stuck to her pale, snake-like body attractively like Velcro. He wasn't sure if this change was actually happening, or his mind distorting the video of the dancing girl in front of him, but he found himself... Enjoying it. Indulging in the pheromonic desire to have this innocent maiden for his own- wanting to wrap his scaly body around her frame and squeeze everything-

His mind finally caught up to his desires, barraging him with a scolding manner; she is a human, you fool! She is the dirt under your tail; the species that made your kind nearly extinct, she is your enemy!

While that painful fact was true, the violet python found himself rejecting that idea entirely. She was special- the picture of hope and peace- and what he aimed to destroy.

"We must find that woman." Pythor ordered drastically as most of the other snakes look at him oddly, for they had not felt the pheromones of lust their leader had. However, fear still ruled their souls as they all agreed with this notion.

Skales had paused: something about the girl was attractive yes, but not her physical appearance; her essence felt so familiar, like it was related to him somehow.

"Yesssssss my lord."

In the main control room, Nya was looking over some of the last reports they had heard from the village as of last night. It seemed that all Serpentine activity had simply stopped- something about that unnerved her.

"What are ya doing?" Brooke's voice came in over her shoulder as she looked to see the girl standing there with Lloyd not far behind. The two hardly went anywhere without each other and confidentially, she thought they were the cutest things.

"Examining the last reports." She replied, "It seems like everything's quieted down now, but we can't know for sure till the guys come back."

"I wish there was a faster way for all of us to communicate. "The little blonde girl mused in her Japanese school dress as she leaned against the table in a thinking manner.

"Well... What about communicators?" Lloyd stated simply while rubbings the back of his neck with one hand.

Brooklynn's aqua eyes lit up as she turned to Lloyd and smiled, "Lloyd, you're a genius!"

"I-I am?" He stated unsurely, "Yeah, I am! Nothing big, just me being an awesome ninja."

"Nya," The girl didn't seem fazed by the boy's last comment, "Why can't we make communicators so everyone can stay connected? You know, in case of emergencies!"

The black bobbed girl thought for a moment, "I don't see why not. It would take some time though."

"Then let's get started!" The blonde was excited, grabbing Nya and Lloyd's hands as she ran out the door and into the lab.

XDestinyX

"So the mission was not successful?" Infinity surmised as the rest of the group finished their lacking reports.

"No Serpentine as far as we saw." Kai agreed as Infinity looked down.

"Most troubling..." The elder master shook his head.

"My calculations confirm this is indeed peculiar." The white ninja added.

"The Serpentine are known for being sly, they will announce their presence when they intend to." Sensei Wu stroked his white beard, "However we were summons here with the hopes of discovering a new ninja."

"Yeah, about that," Abella spoke up, "How will we know who it is? I mean, the scroll doesn't give any hints does it? A name, a sign, a code word?"

"A code word? What are we the CIA?" Jay cracked as Abella sent him a dirty look.

"I have read the scroll, and I can say that Ninjago strongly promotes balance." Sensei Wu went on, "Since the first four ninja as males, I believe that, like Infinity, the next ninja will be female."

"Well, that eliminates half of the population of Ninjago." Kai grumbled, crossing his arms.

"We mustn't lose hope." The ebony haired girl piped in with a strong tone of voice, "I know a ninja exists somewhere here- I just don't know where."

"And we will not stop our search until we find her." Zane assured as he stood beside the guardian ninja of the moon.

Jay turned to see the black ninja, relatively quiet through all that went on. "You ok, Cole?"

"Yeah, just tired I guess." Was the leaders half-earnest reply as Nya, Lloyd and Brooke came onto the deck.

"Hey guys!" The young, green ninja called excitedly, "We got something for you!"

Everyone was given a different colored wristband with a small screen attached to the front. "What the brick are these?" Kai asked, still eyeing the device he held in his hand.

"They're communicators." Brooklynn explained, "Each device is connected to inter-web that allows for direct contact with any person within the network. I call it a CD."

"CD?" Kai quirked an eyebrow as Brooklynn explained.

"A Communication Device- it was either that or a Portable Motion Sensor… " She giggled as Kai noted the hidden innuendo.

"CD it is." He said quickly, strapping the device to his wrist.

"Interesting," Infinity mused as she looked at the device with curious, purple eyes, "This is a fantastic idea Brooke."

"Well, I can't take all the credit-" The young blonde blushed and looked at her feet, "Lloyd originally said something about it and Nya did most of the assembly. I just kina pushed everyone to work."

Abella looked at her gold tinted communicators with a small smirk of approval upon her face and whispered to herself, "That's my girl…"

"We should test these out, just to make sure they work properly." Jay looked eager to try out the new toy, his baby blue yes lighting up and his voice rising ever so slightly. Nya couldn't hold back her giggle at the blue ninja's action so she tried to cover it behind her hand. However, Brooklynn had heard her adorable snicker.

Awwwwwwwwww, Jay and Nya are so cute… they should be together.

With that thought she got an idea. A wonderful idea, a fantastic idea. Brooklynn got wonderful, fantastic idea.

Focus….. Focus…. Focus….

This was the chanting mantra in Evangeline's head as she glided through her routine on the uneven bars. Spinning and flipping in the air was natural to her as she kept her form tight yet loose, gracefully performing each maneuver like clockwork. She then tucked her body and landed near perfectly on both feet, stretching her arms in the final position.

"EVA!"

She suddenly felt a large weight topple her back and she toppled face-first onto the mattress, various snickers coming from behind her. Ms. Lorain sighed and shook her head, scribbling some notes on a clipboard in her hands. "Take five Eva- then we move to the balance beam!"

Eva POV

"Alright, coach!" I called back and propped my head up with one hand, looking one eye back to the cause of my fall. On my back and sides were three young girls, around eight years old a piece with dark hair and light eyes. They were my younger cousins- Maria, Maya and Madeleine, and they act like the little sisters I never had. "Ahhhhhh, I'm being attacked! Somebody help me! Ahhhhhh!"

The three girls giggled as I tickled them lightly, each was so close in appearance I had to distinguish them by accessories. The girl with the red flower in her hair, Maria, spoke up first "You were muy bonita on those bars, prima!"

"Gracias Maria," Oh yeah, did I mention I could speak Spanish? At first glance, I don't appear Hispanic- my great grandmother was from Spain and moved here a long time ago. Speaking spanish- it makes me feel connected to my heritage better, and in any family heritage is very important. The triplets know how to translate spanish but speaking it is what they need to master, they only know bits and pieces. "Te ves muy bonita con esa flor en su pelo."

She smiles at me and touches the flower, blush coming across her face. "Where's Josephine?" Josephine was their nanny and most often took care of them. The next girl, with a yellow hair band, Maya, helps me up to my knees, "She's going to get our tickets- we can't miss your events!"

"I wouldn't mind missing them." I puff as the last one, with two braids tied with blue ribbons in her hair, Madeleine, laughs.

"Very funny, prima, you'll totally beat this competition- I mean look at them!" I look around to see girls my age but my main focus is the bleach blonde, blue eyed damsel named Francesca Belladonna- my major competition from Italy. She's totally pompous and abuses her fame far too much, why even now she was signing autographs and posing for pictures like a celebrity. I know we kind of are famous, but I haven't seen her touch the bars since I got here! That just… unnerves me. Then there's Kimi- a new competitor I have never seen before. She's pretty good, but I can't shake the feeling she's staring at me. It must be jitters…

"All the competitors here have earned the right to perform," I say to the three girls, "The only thing we all can do is our best."

They nod their heads simultaneously as I hear Josephine call them; she waves them over and smiles in greeting to me. I smile back and wave, the triplets hug me tight and the homesickness for my home eases ever so slightly.

This is why I do what do- for my family so they can be proud of me.

They scurry off and I stand, stretch a bit and let my coach know I'm ready for the balance beam- and inside I admit I'm feeling ready for this competition.

Infinity strolled through the outside crowds, her CD working perfectly. She couldn't help but smile as the she walked through the streets, the masses of people smaller than several hours before- just being outside without the fear of her overbearing mother finding her out was enthralling.

Her attention wasn't so lightheaded this time that she noticed a shadow dart into a nearby, deserted alleyway. Alerted, she began after it, twisting and turning down an endless maze of abandoned back roads until she reached a dead end.

"Curiouser and Curiouser…" The dark haired kunoichi puzzled. Mere moments later she felt two limbs come out of the dark shadows and wrap around her legs and arms. Surprised, she struggled against her captors which happened to be two legged serpentine.

"My, my, if it isn't the dark dancer…" She heard a slithering voice come from in front of her. Making a grand entrance from the darkness she once came from, Pythor smirked as he clutched the golden, Anacondrai staff, speaking dastardly to the captured woman.

"Just who do you think you are?" Infinity strained against the venomous imprisoners.

"Why, the ninja haven't spoken of me? I feel so hurt…" He rolled his scarlet eyes, as he approached the stressed girl and placed a scaly hand on her chin, forcing her amethyst pupils to stare up at his face. "I am the King of the Serpentine, but you may call me- Pythor."

Infinity tried not to let her fear get the better of her as she pulled her head away from his cold grip. She managed to step on one of the legged snake's feet, freeing one arm to throw the other away in a moment of adrenaline. She stood her ground as more serpentine came after her.

"If this is your idea of an idea of a fair fight Pythor, then I am not amused." Infinity scoffed as she managed to successfully dodge each poor attack. Pausing in the break of the flow, Infinity went to call for help on her CD only to find it missing.

"Looking for thissssssssssss?" Another voice hissed behind her as she turned to see a dark blue/green snake with similar red eyes only these had swirls. He had started to chant in Hypnobrai tongue, bent on calming the girl to sleep. Alarmingly, she did not submit- oh no, she only frowned at the strange language, shaking her head clear of its charm.

She seemed immune to it.

Pythor narrowed his stare as she frowned in displeasure at his second-in-command. He swallowed hard and his breath came in jagged spasms as she lifted her skirt, showing her shapely legs. She traced her leg up to unsheathe a gleaming silver dagger from her calf, wrapped in a dark purple and black garter. She took the weapon and launched it full speed at the snake, Skales barely moving in time. Pythor took this opportunity to come up behind and use his staff to pin her against his body.

"You cannot escape kunoichi- you might as well surrender." His head lowered to her ear as she struggled to push the golden snake staff away from her body. The serpent general paused, noting their close position as he quietly ravished the light, delicate, lavender smell of her body and softness of her hair with is nostrils.

"What are you doing?" She questioned as the girl noticed her captor wasn't holding onto her as strongly as before.

"I was just imagining fangs piercing such a lovely neck…" Her violet eyes widened as she realized the connotation of his lie and pushed him away, fiercely.

"Keep your thoughts in your head, you slimy serpent." She spat angrily as Pythor hadn't expected such a charged response. He only growled, "It is so like you pathetic humans to be so heinous to those who are superior to you."

The CD in Skales unconscious hand went off, Nya's concerned voice coming through the speaker.

Infinity? Your signature has been quiet for some time. Are you alright?

Pythor tasted the sound on his forked tongue, "Infinity… how cute." The girl finally had enough of this and yanked the device from Skales still hand and fled. The rest of the snakes began to come-to, but Pythor motioned for them to stay.

"I have what we came for."

Cole walked through the large arena where the main events would be held for the Olympic competition. Today was the exposition; where the athletes practiced for the public to see and allow fans a chance to meet the competitors face to face. Even though the crowd was thinner then outside, the earth ninja felt surprisingly alone.

Cole POV

Urgh, why can't I get over myself?! She was just a girl; a girl I hardly know, a girl I bumped into- heck I'll probably never see her again. Then why did it feel so right to look at her pretty face… I wish I could run my fingers through that chocolate brown hair of hers… Oh who am I kidding? I should just act like I never saw her, it's better that way…

I'm just about to swear to never think of that girl again when… I see her again. Only, she's not looking like before. Her hair is brushed straight and pulled back into ponytail, keeping the strands out of her pale blue eyes. She's up on the balance beam before me, in a sunset orange gymnastic suit with long sleeves and sparkles swirling around the front and back, doing flips and jumps with such poise it's breathtaking. The pauses in a upside down split and looks over to where I'm standing and she seems to freeze too, for only a few seconds- then she flips off and lands perfectly on her feet.

Her sky blue turn back to me as if taking a second glance. Then she starts toward me, the end of her hair blowing with a wind I can't see or feel. Realizing there would be a confrontation, I dug around in my pockets for anything that could help me out- anything. Unfortunately the only thing I can find is a simple black marker.

Of all the-

"Hi." Her voice interrupts my thoughts as she smiles... Gosh she has a gorgeous smile.

"Hi, can I borrow your hand for a sec?" My mouth goes before my brain and the next thing I knew I'm holding her hand in mine. She doesn't take it away and so I'm left kind of hanging before I take the marker and draw all over the back of her hand. I'm not thinking at all- just ravishing the feeling of her skin against my own. I end up drawing a retro-style tornado on the back of her hand and a part of me is shocked to see her eyes light up.

"Wow... Why did you do that?"

I wanted to come up with something clever to say but what ends up coming out of my lips was, "I just wanted an excuse to hold your hand."

... Did I really just hit on her? Oh nice going Cole!

Her look is incredulous for a few seconds before she laughs, "I've never had a guy just openly flirt with me before, but this doodle is amazing, you have a great talent. What are you- an art student?"

"Yeah sort of- just came in for the festivities." Ok, you know what? I'm just winging the rest of this- brick it, I can't think correctly so heck with it. "You were great on that beam, by the way."

"Oh, thanks." She pushes a few imaginary strands of hair behind her ears and I can tell that she's nervous.

"So... You got any free time this week?"

"Well the solstice festival is happening in a few days," She looks up at me, her pale blue eyes locking to my emerald, "Could I see you there?"

"Just say where and when."

"By the food court- around seven."

An involuntary smile lights my face, "I'll be there."

"Great, so I'll see you around?" She pivots around on her heel and begins to walk away and I reach out to stop her.

"Wait!" My hand goes to her upper shoulder and the end of her hair touches my skin again, tickling it like a feather, the entire feeling is nothing short of magical, "I didn't catch your name."

The chocolate haired girl turned her head to see his, her light blue pupils shinning, "Evangeline, but you can call me Eva."

Eva….

Beautiful….

She's off faster than I can realize and I can feel that gust of wind following her presence. She's like the wind- I see her only for a few moments before she's gone again.

XDestinyX

SO that's it- I think I covered the bases of more Windy Caverns and the induction of my next major plot point. Ah! So much is happening! I want to hear your reviews so I can dissect how I feel about all this. I give ownership of the infamous Portable Motion Sensor to the lovely VelvetPersona.

Read and review!

Ciao for now
