Chapter 10
One Step Closer
Zane's POV (past)
The door opened.
"Zane, what's wrong?" It was father. I'd hate lying to him. I know it... But...
"It's nothing..." I looked down. He gave a thoughtful smile and left again. Something broke inside me. I felt guilty. I will tell him... Soon...
Zane's POV (future)
"What was it?" Jay asked.
"Nothing I guess. Whatever happened, he must have taken care of it." Father replied. That is... Strange. I shrugged it off. My father and Jay had almost finished the bionic leg for Lloyd. It was not covered in faux skin because it would not be shown.
I walked over to the tree and went inside. Everything was... Younger looking... So to speak. I had not gotten a good look the last time we were here. The only difference was that there was no picture of the falcon, father, and I.
"Shadow Zane is at Garmadon City. He is looking for the paintings currently." My past self told me. We need to hurry then. I motioned for him to come up with me. As we exited the tree, Lloyd was running towards us.
"Zanes, look! I can run again!"
"That's great, Lloyd." I looked over to my past self. He was observing the world around him. I chuckled quietly to myself.
"We should get going. Who knows how much time is left before Shadow Zane finds the underground of Garmadon City." Cole said. The ninja and Garmadon said their final goodbyes to the duo that lived in the metal tree. Before they left, past Zane grabbed future Zane's wrist.
"I think you are forgetting something." He handed future Zane the mega weapon.
"Thank you."
"One more thing, Shadow Zane can shapeshift, manipulate shadows,
Teleport in darkness, and summon shadow power." Zane nodded his head and left to catch up with the others. He explained Shadow Zane's powers to everyone else.
"This fight is gonna be TERRIBLE!" Jay yelled. Cole was thinking of ways to stop Shadow Zane and save Lloyd.
"Ok, guys, I've got a plan. We are going to split up again, half of us will go to Garmadon City, and the other half will head back to the monastery." Cole ordered.
"Uh, why?" Jay asked.
"We want to save Lloyd, right?" Cole answered Jay.
"Oh..."
A/N
I hope this chapter was good. It was really confusing writing with three Zanes, yet it's awesome at the same time. So next chapter will be with Lloyd and Garmadon. And if you didn't get Coles plan, they're going back to the monastery to make sure Garmadon gets bit by the Devourer. Anyways,
NinG out!
