Jesse's P.O.V.
Oh man, if Zoe's still alive, she's going to kill me. Lemme explain. As I was taking Benny back to Destiny's Bounty, I could feel Benny slipping away. I picked up the pace, and dropped him off on board. Zane and Cole had helped me get him below deck, and to a bed so Nya, (Whoever that was) could help him. I knew there was no hope for Benny though.
I flew back to Benny's mansion, and busted through the wall. I saw Zoe holding her side. She saw me, then passed out. I saw the Reaper, and gave him a look.
"Really, Nate?" I looked at him. "Dude, that was the person who's going to have to protect Ninjago City." Nate threw back his hood, and revealed his face.
On the right side, he had a scar over his eye, and running off to the side. On his left side, he had X marks on his cheek. His hair was black, the turning brown at the top.
"Oohhh..., isn't she a ninja, and a vampire? Or, how I call it, Ninpire?" Nate asked. I nodded. "Yes, and if she dies, it's your fault. Make sure that nobody saw what happened." I told him while picking Zoe up.
"I've gotta go." I gave him one last look. Nate nodded, and I flew up. I heard that Zoe's dragon was pretty fast. Let's see if that's true.
Zane's P.O.V.
Cole, Sensei, Jay, Kai and I were below deck watching as Nya did some medical stuff on Uncle Benny.
Nya looked up, a sad expression on her face. "He's gone." I looked at Uncle Benny. His chest wasn't rising anymore, and his face was really pale.
I could hear the sound of wings flapping. "Hey, I think Zoe's back!" Jay said. I ran to the top of the ship, and saw Storm. Jesse and Zoe were on her back. Something was wrong though. I could feel it.
Jesse hopped off of Storm, and got Zoe off. She was bleeding. I ran over towards her. "What happened?!" I asked as Cole took Zoe from Jesse, and took her to Nya.
Jesse explained what happened while Nya was taking care of Zoe. I knew someone should've come with her. What are we going to tell her about Benny?
I looked over at Zoe. She was sleeping in a bed while Nya was talking to Sensei. Cole was sitting in a chair next to Zoe, and Jay and Kai were with me talking to Jesse. "Thank you for helping her." I told him. Jesse nodded. "No problem." He started to walk off, but stopped when I heard a groan from by Cole. I looked at him funny. He shrugged, and pointed to Zoe. I looked at her.
Her eyes snapped open, and she sat up. "Cole?" She looked at him, and then saw Benny's corpse on the bed across from her. Zoe just stared. I walked over to her. "I'm sorry."
Nya gave her a sad look. "I did what I could, but-"
"It's okay. You did your best." Nya nodded. Jay rubbed her back. Kai gave him the evil eye, while Jay just looked at Zoe.
"Jesse, isn't there a resurrection stone?" Zoe looked at him. Jesse smiled and nodded. "I was hoping you'd remember that story. It was supposedly lost when the Lucifractor was destroyed, but it's still around. And luckily, I know where it is." Zoe smiled. "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go get it." Nya stepped forward. "You're not well enough to go, you'll re-open the scratches, and probably bleed to death." Zoe rolled her eyes. "Fine. Jesse, can you get it?" He nodded. "Sure thing. Just give me a minute. I have to go to Whitechaple, get the stone, and then come back." Zoe nodded.
"Good luck." She said. Jesse nodded, then flew off.
Cole's P.O.V.
I saw Zoe looking at me. "What?" I asked. "Did you take a nap while I was gone?" She asked. I nodded. "Yeah..., why?" Zoe laughed. "I think Jay drew on your face, Darth Maul." I grabbed a mirror. She was right. I now had stripes on my face, making me look like an evil Sith.
"Don't kill Qui Gon!" Jay joked. I growled. "Jay!" I got up, and whacked him upside the head. "Ow!"
"To be fair, Obi Wan, you did deserve it."
"What are they talking about?" Nya asked Sensei. "Star Wars. They're fans, and can't wait for the next movie that's coming out next year." Sensei told her.
"Don't you mean, 'Fans, they are. Wait for the next movie that's coming out next year, they can't.'?" Kai asked, doing a very bad impression of Yoda. "Be one with the Force, Luke." I told Zane. "Hey, all you're missing is a Lightsaber, and Mara Jade." Zoe joked.
"True. I already have an annoying sister. Hello Leia. Han." He pointed Han at me. "Dude, right now, I'm Darth Maul. Obi Wan, Lightsaber me!" Jay tossed me one of his inventions. An actual Lightsaber. I activated it, careful not to touch the bright part, and held it like Darth Maul and his double sided Lightsaber. "Uhh.." Zoe back up. "Oh yeah. Vampire... Forgot." I said while deactivating it. Zoe nodded.
"Wait, does this mean you can't play 'Lightsaber' with us?" Jay asked. "I still can, I just can't touch the light." Jay nodded. "Cool."
We waited for Jesse to come back. He came back about twenty minutes later. He had a red stone on a chain. "So he can always have it." He said when I gave him a funny look. "Hey, don't judge Darth Maul."
"Okay, you really need to wash that off, Cole. I can't look at you without laughing." Jay said in between laughs.
"And whose fault is that, Jay?" I looked at him.
Zoe's P.O.V.
I saw Jesse put the chain around Benny's neck. "He hasn't been dead for a long time, so all of his organs are still okay, and not rotted." Jesse told me.
"Okay, first of all, cool! Second of all, gross, and third of all, what happens if he doesn't have a brain?" Jesse looked at me like I was some little kid who just asked him where babies came from. "Uh, well, um..."
I laughed. "It's okay, I know what happens." I saw the color start to return to Benny's face.
He coughed a little, and slowly opened his eyes. "What happened?" He asked. I smiled. "Long story." Jesse told him what happened. "Thanks Jesse." Jesse nodded. "Hey, you gonna give her the thing?" He asked Benny. Benny nodded.
He rummaged around in his pocket for a few seconds before pulling out a necklace. It had a silver locket on the front, and a silver chain. The locket was in the shape of a heart, and had stones bordering it. There was a small engraving on the front in the middle.
"Your parents wanted you to have this when you were sixteen, but I think that they wouldn't mind if you had it now. It's not just any ordinary locket," -He looked at Jay- "It let's you see the dead. Your parents had found it when they were on vacation. Put it on, and you can see ghosts. They had time to bring this home, but not enough time to get me a burrito from Carl's Jr..." Benny handed me the locket. I read the engraving. It read: The eyes are a window to the soul.
"Open it up." Uncle Benny told me. I did, and saw a picture of my mom and dad. This must've been taken when mom was still a mortal, and when dad wasn't a fledgling. "Thanks." I gave Uncle Benny a hug. "Are you going to put it on?" He asked. I nodded. "Sure." I was about to do it, but Cole offered. "Uh... okay." I handed him the locket, and moved my hair. Cole put it around my neck, and closed the clasp. I turned and looked at him, er..., Darth Maul. I laughed. "Thanks Darth Maul. I knew there was still good in you."
Cole's P.O.V.
After dinner, I washed off the marker. Luckily, it wasn't a sharpie. I still have a faint outline of the stripes, but it's good enough. I saw Zoe sitting outside, holding the locket in her hands. I walked over to her, and sat down.
"Hey," She greeted. "So..., you see any ghosts yet?" I asked. Zoe nodded. "Yeah, a pirate, a thousands of bugs, and... my parents." I looked at Zoe. She had a small smile on her face. "So..., uh..., Jay, he uh, he told me what happened last week. Ya know, with the snakes." I could see a very faint blush appear on Zoe's cheeks. "He did? What did he say?" I laughed. "I think you know." Zoe shrugged. "Yeah, well, it was Kai's solution, and if I hadn't kissed you, ya would've killed everyone."
I nodded. "Yeah, sorry about that. It was the sssnake talking." Zoe laughed. I gave her a peck on the cheek. She looked at me funny. "What?" I asked. "Nothing. Darth Maul."
Whew. That took a while. Now, back onto the actual episodes. Ooh, that'll be hard. Peace!
