Chapter 10
The four ninja stood infront of the entrance. Amazed to know the location of where a fifth golden was hidden. The fog of the forest was thick, so thick the ninja couldn't see a few feet infront of them.
"Well then, lets go save Lloyd." says Kai and ventures in.
The rest followed behind him, and everything the saw was a blur. As they walked a few miles in the forest; the fog got even thicker.
"Augh, I can't see a thing." said Jay and bumps right into a tree, "Ow, see what I mean."
Jay didn't hear anyone responded and started to panic a little, and continued walking.
"Guys? Oh great. We're walking through a fog covered forest, and I'm the one who gets seperated by the others."
Not noticing his surroundings, and a hand was behind him and lightly tapped his shoulder. Jay screamed and ran into another tree. Jay recovered from the impact and rubbed his head to ease the pain and saw Cole was the one who touched his shoulder and the others were on the ground laughing.
"Not funny you guys." he says with his face red and pushed Cole away, "We've have to save Lloyd, not scare me."
"You're right," said Kai recovering his breath and stood up, "But Cole insisted to do this. Ok guys lets go." and took the lead.
"You should have seen your face." said Cole, who still chuckled a little at Jay.
"Not funny." Jay said with anger and punched his arm.
The ninja continued walking through the forest. They continued through the fog, which kept getting thicker, and noticed it was getting darker.
"What time is it?" Jay asked
"I don't know." said Kai, "It was like noon before we entered the forest."
"Perhaps it's nighttime." said Zane, "Look."
They looked up, but couldn't see the sky, just more fog and it looked darker. The birds stopped chirping, and crickets began to crick.
"I guess we call it a night and camp here." said Cole and removed his backpack and pulled out a sleep mat.
The others pulled out their mats, and circled around the firewood that Kai found in the forest around them. He used his fire sword and created the campfire. While they warmed up around the fire, they ate their granola bars they brought, and discussed tomorrows plan.
"I can't believe we haven't found or seen that pipsqueak at all." said Jay, "Zane, how close are we?"
Zane opened his arm and studied the map.
"According to the map, we should be a few hours near them, in that direction." he responded and pointed north.
"Well that doesn't seem so bad." said Cole, and notice Kai hasn't spoken at all again, "What on your mind now?"
"I've been thinking," said Kai, "Even though Lucas is trying to you know destory us. Imagine what it would be like if we rescue him from Garmadon, we'll have a six brother to our team and help train Lloyd."
"I agree." said Zane, "Since none of us is water, and with his help, Lloyd would be one step closer to his true potential."
"Yeah." said Jay yawning, "But I don't know about you, but I'm getting some sleep." and laid down, using his backpack as a pillow and curled into a ball.
The rest agreed with him as they felt tired too and laid down on their backpacks. Everyone fell asleep peacefully, except Kai, who kept on thinking about tomorrow and what may happen. But sleep overpowered him and he finally drifted into slumber.
