CHAPTER 47

THE END OF ALL BATTLES

KAI`S POV:

I felt as though the battle wouldn't end. It began at midnight and was still lasting until the morning sunlight. It was seven in the morning and we were all huddled in groups all around the place. We had no intentions on giving up. We needed to think up of a plan. A plan that could help us end this battle once and for all. I looked around at the group that surrounded me. Jay, Cole, Zane and Lloyd were there along with Sensei Wu and Garmadon. Some other men decided to join us because we were all splitting up. We already lost a bunch of people in this battle. So did the other side, but they did not give the sign that they would surrender. We didn't, either. We were simply hiding out in certain places until we could figure out what to do next.

I was sitting against a rock next to Cole, who had a few scratch marks on his face. He had plenty of cuts and bruises to go around on his arms and legs. I could see the places where his shirt had been slightly torn and ripped. I had the same problem, although I didn't have so many around my body. I sighed, having so many thoughts about everything. The most I thought about was Kitty. Every enemy that I fought against, I was thinking about her. Every sword that I took from the enemy's hands, I was thinking about the baby that I would help bring into this world by the time it was ready to be born. My mind only drifted to Kitty. It made me feel stronger. It made me have more strength than I ever thought possible. I wasn't just going to sit around and not do anything. I was going to stay on my feet and keep going. I wouldn't give up. I won't give up. I refuse to give up.

A plan came into my mind. There was only one way to end this battle. We had to think up of the greatest weaknesses the enemy has to face. I shared this idea. "Okay, everyone. I have an idea. I know we're a bit tired and I understand that we can't go on like this any longer, but I promise you that this will be over soon. Today is the end of the war. The only way that can happen is if we have a plan."

"What do you suppose we do?" Garmadon asked, "I'm ready for this war to end as much as you want it as well."

"Okay, here's the plan. We split up in different places. The army won't recognize us if we're in different places. They'll all try to be in one place at the same time, but that won't work out for them. We need to have someone that is willing to run out and lead the enemy in the middle of the battlefield. Once the enemy is confused and has no idea where we are, we bring out a surprise attack."

"There's something you forgot to mention," Jay said, "In order for them not to be able to fight back, we need to make them exhausted and tired. They can't just be energized the whole time. We need them to lose some energy before we bring on the surprise attack."

"Jay`s right," Cole said, "In order to have that part of the plan, we'll need Sensei`s permission first."

"You have my permission," Sensei Wu said, "I'm just ready to get this battle over with."

"We both have the right mind, brother," Garmadon said.

Soon, Sensei went into another one of his hacking fits. We tried to help him, but he held up his hand. "There is no reason to worry. I'm fine. You all should be worried about yourselves."

"Sensei, we have a feeling something is wrong and you're not telling us about it," Zane said.

"I said to not worry about me. I'll be fine. Besides, this may be the last war I will ever help out with."

"Sensei`s right," I said, "We need to make sure this counts. So now that we have permission to use this plan, who's willing to risk their life in older to distract the enemy and tire them out."

"I'll do it," Zane said, "After all, I am indestructible. There's no way I would ever malfunction. If I only get temporarily damaged, there's always a way to fix it. I am happy to lay my life on the line."

"You're a good friend, Zane," Jay said, "Hopefully, you won't get damaged."

"Thank you for speaking encouraging words."

"Okay, everyone, this is the final battle," Lloyd said, "We need to make sure that this battle counts. Everyone ready?"

"I'm ready," I said.

"Me, too," Cole said.

"Me, three," Jay said.

"Me four," Zane said.

"We are all ready," Sensei Wu said.

"Let's do this," Garmadon said, "For Ninjago!"

"For Ninjago!" we all shouted.

A little bit later, we all got into position. Zane was standing in the middle of everything. He was waiting for the right time at the right moment. I was giving him a little time. After all, we had no idea where the enemy was. They could be lurking anywhere by now. Plus, there was no way Zane could become damage while evil was chasing him. He doesn't need oxygen, so he won't become tired from running. He'll continue until the enemy is too worn out to start a fight. We'll come in and take over, defeating them one by one until they decide to surrender. I didn't have a problem with that.

Zane took a deep breath and started running. I could see the pace that he was going. Mile after mile. It was like he could stop. The guy was a running machine. Well, he is a machine, but I'm pretty sure people get the point.

Cole looked up at me. "This is it, Kai. The final part of the battle. How do you feel about this?"

"Anxious," I said, "I won't let that back me down, though. I'm not stopping until this battle is over. I'm not doing it for myself. I'm doing it for Kitty and my unborn baby."

"Wait. Did I just hear you correctly? Did you say both Kitty and your unborn baby?"

"Yes, I did. Is there a problem with that?"

"Why didn't you tell anyone about this?"

"I didn't know until a few hours before the battle."

"Why didn't you tell anybody then?"

"Cole, that's enough. I'll explain everything later. Right now, a full out battle is about to happen."

"You're right. We need to focus on that. We need to stay strong for our wives."

"You said it."

We wait for at least a half hour. I was worried that something happened to Zane. Although the worrying stopped when I saw Zane far out in the distance, running as fast as he could. I saw the enemy running after him. They were all tried out after running for so long. Zane must've had them running a mile. I was glad to see that the plan was working perfectly. Zane made sure that the enemy wasn't looking and hid behind a large rock. They all stopped in the middle of the battlefield to take a short rest. I looked out to see Sensei Wu giving me the signal. I nodded and looked at Cole.

"Time for the battle to end," I said.

"Alright," Cole said, "Lead the way."

"On the count of three, give out the war cry." I closed my eyes and breathed in deeply. "One... two... three!" I gave out the war cry which gave the army the signal. They also gave out the same cry and joined us in the battle that I hope will end at this very moment.

The enemy didn't see us coming. Some of them didn't have time to pull out their swords and they were taken down in a heartbeat. Some were able to release their weapons, but they were too tired to fight. They were taken down as well. Some had just enough strength to fight, but the enemy was outnumbered. We had taken out nearly half the army. A smile formed on my face. I knew we could win this.

Soon, I saw that Garmadon was down. His right shoulder had a slash mark on it and he wasn't looking too good. The Nindroid he was fighting didn't really help matters much. Like Jay did with me when I was down, I did the same thing for Garmadon. I battled the Nindroid that tried to hurt the one person I trusted for some time now. I was just glad to see that he wasn't evil anymore. I would help him through these tough times. He was like another father to me.

The Nindroid tried to take me down. Sure he kicked me in the ribs, cut my wrist and tried to use a whip to knock me out, but he couldn't do anything that would lower me to the ground. I gave Lloyd just enough time to help his father and get him out of the battlefield. Once Garmadon was gone, I smacked my sword towards the Nindroids legs and made him trip. I removed the power source from his back, letting him take a trip to the Realm of the Forgotten.

I looked at Pythor to see that half his army was completely destroyed and some were injured. I gave him a smirk. Well, a battle smirk, to be exact. He lowered his head in shame and dropped the weapons from his hands. He held up the white flag and shouted, "We surrender!"

We all heard what Pythor shouted. Everyone stopped fighting. Our eyes widened. We couldn't believe it. Good had won. Evil has lost and always will. Good has won.

"Did you hear that?" Cole said.

"I did," I said, "We won."

"Men, the battles are over," Sensei Wu said, "The war between good and evil is now over."

Cheering could be heard from different directions of the battlefield. Even I cheered my loudest regardless of my injuries. Thank goodness this battle was finally finished with. I was ready to go home.
