Sensei Wu had been visiting Jay for the past week, he was shocked at the transformation that he saw in his blue ninja, he wasn't eating or drinking. He never spoke in depth to anyone especially Cole or Kai. Nya had visited him when he was calm and he just sat and cried as Nya tried to get him to eat. Lloyd too had visited with Zane and Jay had been more talkative, he didn't maintain eye contact with anyone but at least he spoke to Zane.

"I appreciate you coming to talk with me Zane, I can trust you."

"Thank you Jay, do you think you could try to eat something I sense if you don't eat soon you will be...well you'll die."

"I have no need for food, this body can die for all I care...it is just a vessel."

Zane frowned at these words, this was a new conversational direction "Why would you say that Jay, this is your body."

"It was...but he was physically weak and let this happen."

"And by he you mean...Jay?" Zane said as he struggled to understand what he was hearing, did Jay have a split personality that he kept hidden!

"And who are you then, if the body you inhabit is Jay's?"

"My name is of no importance, I am an ancient creature from the sands of time, often travelling unnoticed with genie's and djinn's. I am a bi-product if you will...of their evil personas' a part of them they don't want people to see."

"So you don't have a name?..." Zane quizzed.

"I do, but I'll not disclose it, you are not important enough to know".

"Why did you choose Jay, of all the weak minded people in Ninjago or where ever you hail from why him?"

"He was stronger, his mind was strong enough to anger Nadakhan, so he forced him to unleash his wrath which is how I came to reside in this mind and body."

"Simply put, the mind was stubborn but the body was weak."

"So you took advantage of his weakened state...you realise he had no choice, he was tortured on that ship...he was not weak on purpose" Zane countered.

"It is what it is, I care not for why he was weak...but just to make you feel worse I will tell you this..."

Zane frowned at the unnecessary pause, dreading what he was about to hear.

"I am killing him slowly and painfully...he would scream in agonising pain but I also control his voice" I forcefully yanked my arms in front of me so the nindroid could see my nail beds slowly turning blue,"look at him, can you see the life force leaving his eyes yet, he is being starved of food, drink, love and friendship."

"What are you doing to him" Zane yelled in alarm.

"You cant stop me, he'll turn soon and then he'll be just like me."

Zane quickly left, he didn't know what to do, he spoke with Sensei Wu and Misako who immediately began researching into djinns and powerful entities associated with them. Cole and Kai were informed of this new detail, the looks on their faces was of pure horror and hatred of the famous djinn, how had this happened, everything was fine up until a few weeks ago.

"Sensei I suggest a different tactic, I really don't think this is helping matters, Jay needs help."

"As I see it, hypnosis does have a perfectly valid use in some areas such as those which can alter phobias and the like, but this treatment will reprogram his way of thinking and may even allow him to fight the presence in his head."

"It will not harm him at all, but he will have to relive his memories again for the purposes of this treatment to work" Zane further added.

"Zane, please try...it is comforting to see you trying to help your brothers and I hope that it also helps Cole and Kai too" Sensei added with a nod as he walked away.

"I trust your judgement Zane, hypnosis may subdue the entity within so it is worth a try."

Time jump a day later

Zane's pov

I had been visiting Jay and tried to talk to him rather than the voiced entity, Jay was still in there but the entity was becoming stronger.

"Jay I implore you to see reason, Kai and Cole wouldn't do this they couldn't...they love you...I love you" Zane stated exasperated at Jay's reluctance to see reason even though the facts were there. Jay wasn't in the mood for talking he was ignoring everyone, his back tuned away whilst he sat in his prison.

"Look...there is one way I can help you but I admit it wont be pleasant, it involves hypnosis again but this time I would need to reprogram your brain...and by that I mean I need to make your mind question itself".

"Will you allow me to do this for you Jay" I ask him as he gives me no response, he does not acknowledge I'm in the room with him.

"Yes" Jay finally responds with his back to me.

I leave the room and find the tools I'll need and quickly return to the hold where I set up my equipment, I begin by asking Jay to face me so I can place electrodes on his head. I focus on the areas of his brain that control short and long term memory and then I show my brother an image...this image is typically used for hypnosis but in this experiment it will help me to ask him questions. I show him a spiral black and white picture and then switch on my machine, we are almost connected mentally as I begin my questions and then I can start to help him.

"Just focus your eyes on this picture for me...just look at the pattern Jay." I used his name as this seems to get through to Jay rather than the voice.

"Where are you and what can you see."

"I'm on a boat we're out at sea" he says.

What type of boat is it Jay?"

"A sailing boat...A wish and a prayer...I am on the mast directing electricity away from...Zane".

"Who is with you on this boat?"

Zane, Cole, Nya and Lloyd."

"Where is Kai?"

"Kai was taken by Nadakhan...I couldn't find him."

"Was Kai on Nadakhans boat?"

"No, I couldn't find him...he was g-gone."

"What happened when you were rescued from Nadakhan?"

"Cole found me and helped me to leave...I was weak and shackled."

"Was Cole a prisoner on the ship too?"

"No...I don't think so."

"What can you remember about Cole when he rescued you? was he different compared to the one in your memory?"

"Yes, he was wearing pirate clothes a-and earlier his gi."

"Ok do you think that the Cole that hurt you was your brother? or not?"

"No...I don't no."

"Ok Jay you are doing really well, just keep calm and breathe normally."

"Jay was there anything that happened before Cole came to see you in your cage on the ship?"

"Y-yes I woke up choking..something was burning my throat, my eyes became heavy and...and I couldn't stop myself...my body wouldn't listen..."

"Jay tell me about when you saw Kai in Nadakhan's bedroom,did he talk to you?"

"No I h-heard his voice but his mouth didn't move."

"Jay I'm just going to ask you to focus on Kai's face as you see him next to you in your dream...can you tell me what he looks like?"

"He is wearing red, he has a strange face...l-like distorted...two faced or mask...I think...he looks odd...he's scaring me."

"Calm down Jay, just breathe I need you to breathe." I noticed Jay was panting harshly.

"Now I need you to focus on Cole's face specifically in Nadakhan's bedroom...what was his face like?"

"H-he err he looked like Cole...but not Cole...he sounded different, his face darker...solid form...long hair...s-something like that."

"What was different about the way he sounded?" Zane said as he pressed a small button sending a signal to Jay's brain wave and allowing Zane to see for himself how the image in Jay's head had been altered by strange magic.

"He had an accent, s-silky voiced seducer...just different...he did...no...It was...Cole...no...Nadakhan?"

I smiled as I finally saw we had made progress, Jay was beginning to accept what he had experienced, the event he saw had happened but Nadakhan had played mind games on Jay to make him believe that Cole and Kai had raped him while he couldn't fight back...he was tortured for want of a better word, he was telling the truth from his point of view. I allowed Jay to rest as I removed my equipment from him and the room. I thanked him before I left adn insisted he ate some food.

"Thank you Jay, please try and eat" I said as I left to update Sensei Wu and my brothers.

"Sensei I feel I have made progress with Jay."

"He shared details with me and my treatment is working. The events, as you know now...did happen, he was manipulated by a substance that Nadakhan used before he submitted Jay to the barbaric treatment."

"Sensei, Jay's final wish didn't wish it all away as Nadakhan had assumed he would, he wished that no one had found the teapot!"

"So my logic parameters tell me that the wish did happen and the previous 2 wishes he made also. Just because time returned doesn't mean the wishes were not made."

"He is adopted, his biological father left his house to Jay, he wished that the teapot had never been found, so yes it did happen."

"I suggest however that I need one more session with Jay again tomorrow, I feel that I may be close to unlocking his mind and with it Jay too."

"I trust you Zane, you have my permission to continue, but please exercise caution with him...he is still dangerous."
