Two days later, Wu had gotten in touch with people in Ninjago City. Lauren was hooked up to a machine that would keep her in a coma-like state for a while. She had on a headset of some sorts, and Wu was explaining how to get rid of the Demon King.

"In actuality, when Garmadon was still evil, he was in touch with Lauren, who had remnants of future knowledge, or spirits that were with her when she was born, allowing her to slightly predict the future and bend it. Now that she cannot use it, the spirits had to be released somehow, and the only way was-"

"Through a memory," Nya interrupted him, who was tapping at a keyboard nearby. The girls had to be left at home, because they were in her past, and they couldn't risk them seeing each other. The boys would have to go in as well. They got hooked up similar to Lauren, then they all laid down on mats next to each other.

"Let's do this," Jay said. Nya walked over to Lauren, and put her under.

"She can't enter her own memories," she explained, then went back to the keyboard. "Three. Two. One." She pushed a button, sending the boys into Lauren's past.

They woke up on top of a strange building. It was a flat brown surface, and there was a ledge on the side that they could look over, and hide behind. Kai sneaked up to the edge, and saw what was below. Buses, and twelve to fourteen year old kids. Kai gulped at the realization.

"Middle school," he winced. Middle school wasn't the best experience for him.

BEFORE THE CRITICISM STARTS: I am not basing this school on Japanese single gender schools. This is a purely public school, and it isn't an academy or anything, just a regular middle school. Also, please just read a little bit more before you ask about the story. Plus, I forgot to mention this earlier, but I heard that it was contradictory that Lloyd had powers over Creation in the series, and Lauren said that he had power over Fighting. Well, I put yet another twist on the story. They both have the Creation Powers, however Lloyd has more ability to fight, while Lauren has more ability to create. If there is any more problems, please PM me.

"Wait up!" came a voice from below. A girl in a gray hoodie, with chest length grown hair. She ran to catch up with a group of girls about her age.

"There she is," whispered Kai. She was even cute in middle school.

"Shouldn't we follow her?" Zane asked him. Kai nodded, and they sped off on the rooftop. Lauren walked into the front doors, and went into a huge commons area, the boys watched from a skylight. She separated from the group, and met up with a boy.

"Hey Caden," she said. "How was your weekend?" The boy turned around, and Kai grimaced.

"Oh hey!" said Caden. "Great! You?"

"Not bad, I just wish there wasn't a math test today."

"See, that's why you shouldn't have wanted that team!" The two laughed a little bit, and Kai deepened his frown.

Who's this guy?! he thought. He felt a hand on his shoulder, Cole.

"Relax, Lauren's your girlfriend in real life," he said.

"She's not my girlfriend!" Kai growled in return. Before anybody could say anything else, a bell rang, and Lauren sped off to class. The ninja jumped off, and followed the past Lauren through the hallways. She reached her locker, and someone, her teacher, came up to her.

"Ready for the test today Miss Wu?" he said. Lauren nodded, and opened her locker. The teacher went away, and another girl filled the empty space.

"So Lauren, you and Caden are getting close," she said, causing Lauren to drop a book.

"Absolutely not!" Lauren insisted, slight color in her cheeks. She picked up her book with a sigh.

"Whatever, Susanne, it's not like you haven't had interest in John Liggins!" Lauren said smiling, poking at her. Jay gasped.

"That's Susanne?" he asked in a low tone. "This is getting weird. Wait, she liked another guy? What?!" The girls stiffened, and turned towards the window. The boys ducked, and sighed after they walked to their rooms.

"Be more careful!" Cole warned Jay. "These memories are still filled with rational thought. We can't let anyone see us!"

"Sorry, I forgot!" the Blue Ninja said back.

"Guys, focus!" Zane interrupted. "We need to find the source of Iak in her memories. Something about predicting the future. Who knows, it could've already happened." Everyone put their focus back into the mission at hand. Really, all it was, was math class, then science and social studies, reading, language arts, and all of her other classes. A regular day at school. However, she and Caden walked back to the bus, and when Lauren got on, all of her friends made fun of her for it. Kai wanted to strangle that boy, but kept his distance, remembering the mission. When she got home, the boys watched her as she went up a set of stairs into a some sort've recording room. She took out a paper, and wrote things down. After a while, she began to make music on a computer. Then, a knock was heard at the door.

"Hi mom!" Lauren said, opening the door. A woman with brown hair and a business outfit came through the doorway.

"Hi sweetie, did you finish your homework?"

"Had none to speak of."

"Well, that's..." Lauren looked worried, and she squeezed her eyes shut. A strange aura appeared around her, and her "mother" resumed.

"... great!" she said. Lauren then nodded, and she went back upstairs. The boys rushed over to the window again.

"It's getting harder and harder to keep my life normal," Lauren said, her head between her knees. "I'm going to have to tell the truth, and give up these future powers. The only reason I can do that, is because I can predict, and mess with the future. I just can't sustain the effects anymore!"

That going to be our moment, thought Kai.
