Hi guys! So, New Pokemon Snap for Nintendo Switch came out on Friday! I've been playing it for hours! There's a lot to do in that game. It's a lot different then the Nintendo 64 version.
Anyway, I've been trying to get the new to flow off. It's still not, but I thought I needed to update this now I know what happens to Nya at the end of Season 15. Now that I do ... well ... I don't know yet.
XxXxXxXx
It was now dark. The Noodle House doors opened to reveal the Ninja walking out. "Need I remind you, that while I was younger I saved your butt's on a number of missions." Lloyd was saying as he carried a sleeping Faith on his hip as she had her head resting on his shoulder with her thumb in her mouth.
"Alright." Jay huffed. "You got us there." He points at the blonde. "But you were still a brat even after becoming the Green Ninja."
"You're still sore at me for all those pranks I did?" Lloyd shook his head. "My uncle told me to do it, to teach you guys a lesson. Remember?"
Cole folds his arms. "I'm with Jay." He turns and wraps his left arm around Nya, then wrapped his other arm around Rocky. "Gotta go." He, Nya and Rocky walked down the sidewalk.

That same night, inside the Monastery. Lloyd watches Jeanette as she sleeps peacefully, he leans down and kisses her cheek before moving out of the room. Moving down the hall, he pokes his head into the next room to see both his daughters are in a deep sleep. Closing the door a little, but keeping it open a crack, Lloyd moves down the hall.
XxXxXxXx
The following morning. Jeanette walks into the Hanger Bay to find Lloyd sitting at the computer, well he had fallen asleep and was leaned back in the chair.
Smiling a little, Jeanette walks over to him. "Lloyd." She places her hand on his shoulder, he mumbled something and stayed asleep. "Lloyd." She shook him more and he sprang awake, jumping to his feet.
"What'd I miss, what'd I miss!?" He looked around frantically, and found Jeanette looking amused. "Oh, hi honey."
"Good morning." She kissed his cheek. "What are you doing down here? You've been awake all night?"
He yawned and stretched. "Yeah." He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and nodded at the computer. "I'm just monitoring surveillance footage for any sign of the criminals who broke out of Kryptarium last month."
"Kai said the police made an arrest already." She said with a frown as she folds her arms.
Lloyd nods and presses a button. "Fugi-Dove." He replied as the image along with his mug shot appeared on the computer. "They caught him feeding pigeons in a park."
Jeanette took a step closer to the computer as a digital newspaper appeared. "Is that Ronin?"
"Yeah." Lloyd sighs, he sits back down in the chair and leans back against it as he folds his arms. "The police hired him to help round up the criminals. I don't like how the police keep using a bounty hunter like Ronin, but." He's cut off when the computer starts beeping, showing Cecil Putnam at the door of the monsastary with a box in his arms.
"Great." Jeanette groans as Lloyd straightens and stands up. "What does he want?"
XxXxXxXx
The team now stood in the main room, Cecil Putnam stood in front of the Ninja with the box still in his arms.
"I, Cecil Putnam, manager of the Explorers Club." Putnam introduced to the Ninja. "I regret to inform you that Misako Montgomery Garmadon's membership has been cancelled, effective immediately." He hands Lloyd the box. "Here are the items emptied from her club locker."
"On what grounds?" Zane questioned.
Putnam turns to him with his hands on his hips. "I'm afraid it's club policy. Whenever a member is missing and presumed lost at sea, the club revokes their membership."
"Missing?" Jeanette asks with panic.
"What are you talking about?" Nya was just as panicked.
Putnam just brushed off the panic that started inside the room. "Oh there's no need for panic. Her position will be given to another worthy applicant. The club will prevail."
Lloyd lost it. "We're not worried about your damn club!" He threw the box down and it landed with a loud thud on the floor. "I'm worried about my mother and Master Wu!" He grabs a fist full of Putnam's shirt. "Where are they?!" He demands.
Putnam let out an eep. "She was leading an expedition with Professor Powers to attempt to navigate the storm belt, and prove her theory about an uncharted island. But as we haven't heard from her in several weeks, the expedition is presumed lost."
"The storm belt?" PIXAL said surprise. "What was she thinking?"
XxXxXxXx
After the team escorted Putnam out, the Ninja headed down to the Hanger Bay. PIXAL stood in front of the computer and typing away as she explained.
"The storm belt is an area off the Southern Coast, plagued by violent storms. Numerous ships and airplanes have gone missing in the region. It is considered very dangerous."
"To my knowledge, there is only one person ever to emerge from the Storm Belt." Zane said gravely.
"I don't like how you said that Zane." Jeanette said uneasily.
PIXAL places a hand on her shoulder. "That is correct." She turns back to the computer and presses a button, bringing up an image of a newspaper. "A man named Timothy Batterson. Batterson was part of a balloon tour which was blown off course. He claimed it was blown into a Storm Belt and eventually crashed on an uncharted island."
Lloyd turns to her. "PIXAL, ready the Bounty. Zane, pull up whatever information you have about this man." He looks around at the others. "The rest of you. Pack. We don't have a moment to lose."
XxXxXxXx
The Ninja arrive in a desert at what looked like a run down store. "Here we are." Lloyd said as he jumped on the railing of the Bounty. "We grab him, and and head out!" He jumps off and his Elemental Dragon appears. The Ninja follow suit and they land gracefully on the ground in front of the store. The Dragons let out roars, scaring the man who was asleep in a rocking chair and he falls out.
Twitchy Tim stands up and yelps. The Ninja jump down from their dragons and they disappear. It takes a minute for the Twitchy Tim, then he smiles.
"Hiya fellas!" He greats to the Ninja. "What'll it be?" He asks before holding up two broken gas nozzels. "Leaded or unleaded?"
Lloyd moves forward as he and the Ninja lower their masks. "Are you Mr. Batterson?"
Twitchy Tim laughs a little. "Oh, yeah, but nobody calls me that."
Cole and Kai look at each other, before Cole turns back to face him. "Uh, what do they call you?"
"Twitchy Tim! Twitchy for short."
Lloyd rubs the back of his head. "Well, um, Twitchy." He starts. "My mother was part of an expedition to try and map an unknown island on the southern coast, and she's missing. We're going after them. You're the only one who knows what's out there and we could really use your help."
As he explained, something funny was happening to Twitchy. He ran up to Lloyd. "I'll tell you what's out there! Storms! Monsters! Doom!" He rushes up to Cole. "I was struck twelve times by lightning trying to escape that nightmare." He turns slightly, then gets in Cole's face, causing the Black Ninja to back away. "And you want me to go back?!" He demans.
"Twelve?" Cole questions. "Really?"
Twitchy Tim turns to cower. "Yeah." He was acting funny again, then straightened up. "Well, luckily, it didn't affect me, but I." He stopped himself as he looked like he was short circeting, then smiled. "Hiya fellas! What'll it be, leaded or unleaded?"
The Ninja look at each other, before Lloyd turns to him. "You already asked us that."
"I did?"
"We're not here for gas, we're here for your help. Remember?" Lloyd tried to remind him.
"Yeah, we were talking about the uncharted island." Cole said. "We were asking you to come with us."
Twitchy Tiim started to panic as he looked at the Master Of Earth. "The uncharted island? Are you nuts? You want me to go back?" He looks at Lloyd, before turning his back on them. "Well, you can forget it. The answer's.-" He started to walk away, but stops as he gets another twitch attack, then turns back to the Ninja. "Hiya, fellas! What'll it be, leaded or unleaded?"
Jay moves forward. "What is going on? You said that three times!"
"I did?"
Jay places his hands on his hips. "We were talking about going back to the island! Remember? We were asking you for help?"
"Going back to the island? I swore I'd never do it but what can I say?" Twitchy Tim throws the two gas nozzels behind him. "A deal's a deal. You're driving, right?" He asks Kai.
XxXxXxXxXx
The Bounty heads straight for the uncharted island as the Ninja stand in the bridge, while Twitchy Tim is panicking behind them.
"Interesting. Our radar is unable to penetrate the fog bank." PIXAL said with a frown.
Irritated with Jay's pushups, Jeanette places her left foot on his back causing him to grunt and flatten to the floor. "Why can't we penetrate it?" She asks as Jay lays spread eagle.
"It's the island!" Twitchy Tim cried. "She doesn't want you to see her secrets."
Lloyd turns to him. "How did you reach the island the first time?"
"It was a freak accident." Twitchy Tim begins. "I was taking a hot air balloon tour, but the balloon blew off course. It got caught in the storm." He twitched again, then ducked and raced over and grabbed Zane's shoulders. "I tried to ride it out. They were like hours." He shoved his arm away and Zane went spinning in place. "Days of being tossed around in that fog." He grabs Zane, stopping his spins. "Then suddenly." He trails off.
"Then what?" Zane asks.
"Lightning struck it! It crashed. I must have blacked out because I don't remember that part, but when I woke up, I was on a beach, a blue sand beach."
"Blue sand?" Jay asks after Jeanette finally removed her foot.
"You must have hit your head pretty hard." Cole added with his left hand on his head while his right hand on his hip.
Twitchy Tim zoomed through Cole, Kai, and Jay. "It was blue, I tell you, what do you think I'm lying? I'm telling the truth!"
The Bounty gets closer and closer to the uncharted waters, and the Destiny's Bounty shakes.
"Lloyd, I'm picking up a rise in electrostatic levels." PIXAL informs as she turns to him. "I do not think it would be wise to proceed any nearer. I suggest you lower the catamarans and approach by sea."
"Right." Lloyd agrees. "Let's mount top and break some waves."
Twitchy Tim gasps, then faints into Cole.
"Uh, he's gonna need a life jacket." The Earth Ninja said.
XxXxXxXx
The Ninja are quick to the lowers deck of the Bounty and jump onto the vessels before they're dropped down and land in the water.
"PIX, we're down." Lloyd said as he drove the one, while the other followed. "Proceeding into the fog bank."
"Good luck Lloyd. Be careful." PIXAL wished.
XxXxXxXx
"Why are you whispering?" Cole asks Jay after sometime.
"I don't know!" Jay cried.
Kai turns his head a little. "Do you guys hear that?"
Nya looks at the water. "Waves. We must be getting close."
Lloyd turns to her. "Close to what?" Suddenly the water gets more dangerous. "Look out!" He cries as he sees rocks up ahead.
"Hard port!" Nya cried.
Jeanette has her left hand on the sail boat, while the other is clutching Zane's arm as he guides their vessel, following the other two ahead of them.
"Zane, are you ok?" She asks as the water gets more rough.
"Yes. Maybe I should have stayed on the Bounty with PIXAL, since I could attract the lightning. Are you alright?"
"So far so good. And it's too late to turn around now."
Zane looks around. "Fascinating. The rock seems to attract the lightning."
"As long as you're not attracting the lightning, then we're golden!" Jeanette exclaimed.
Two narrow rocks are now in the way of the Ninja. "Nya! We're too wide! We won't fit!" Lloyd cried, and she presses a button, their vessel closes and they make it through.
Zane, and Jeanette's vessel follows easily since they're on a small sail boat.
"Here we go." Jay said as he presses the button, but their vessel doesn't get narrower.
"Push the button! We're too wide!" Cole cried as the sea got more and more dangerous.
"I am pushing the button!" Jay cried in panic as he's now hitting the button with the palm of his hand. "It's not working!"
"We have to help them!" Jeanette cried, Zane nods.
"Are you ready to jump?" He asks.
"Yes!"
The two drive their vessel as close as they could before leaping off and lands on the other vessel.
"Everyone, get to starboard!" Zane instructs. Cole and Jay jump next to him and Jeanette as they do just that while Kai continues to drive. "Lean back into the catamaran up on its side!" Zane continued.
They barely make it, and part of their vessel gets broken when they go through. When they do make it Cole and Jay jump back to stand behind Kai as the water gets calmer.
"Whoa!" Jay breathed as they get closer to the island.
"Wow." Lloyd breathed, while behind him Twitchy Tim is twtching in panic.
"What was I thinking, offering to come back here?"
XxXxXxXx
Both vessels slid onto shore. Kai jumps down from his, just before Jenaette falls overboard and lands on top of him causing him to grunt as Nya throughs down Twitchy Tim, before jumping down.
Jeanette rolls off him. "I'm sorry Kai." She said as she helps him up. "Are you ok?"
With his free hand, he rubs his head. "Yeah." He looks around as the others walk over to them. Jeanette and Lloyd hug, as Nya and Cole hug. "Huh, I guess we're walking from here." The fire Ninja said before Nya grabs him in a hug.
"Maybe not." Lloyd said. "PIXAL, do you copy?" He asks into his ear pece communicator.
"I copy, Lloyd." She answers with static.
"We are on the island. Can you fix on my location and deploy the Jungle Choppers?" Lloyd asks her.
"Affirmative. Deploying now."
In the clouds, something breaks through and heads in their direction at a fast rate. Lloyd takes a step backwards before folding his arms. Two more creates land heavily on the island.
"Haha! That's what I call air mail." Kai cheered.
XxXxXxX
The three Jungle Choppers race through on land, Jeanette's dragon in pursit.
XxXxXx
The Choppers speed to a stop and the Ninja leap out. Lloyd runs, throughing off his hood as he runs for the tent.
"Mom!?" He cries as he slides to a stop in front of the tent door and looks in. "Hello?" He runs inside to find it empty and dark.
Zane walks fast the tent as something has caught his eye. "Look. The rock formation." He said as he got closer. "It spells out "help".
"What happened here?" Kai questions as Nya walks up to stand by Zane.
"They must have left this behind in case someone came after them."
"Mom!" Lloyd yelled out desperately. "Master Wu!" His voice eches Wu's name through the area, and Twitchy Tim jumps on his and covers his mouth.
"Shh!" He jumps off the Green Ninja and grabs his arms. "Are you nuts? You want those things to know we're here?"
"Uh, what things?" Kai questions.
"The monsters in the jungle!" Twitchy Tim answers as he throws Lloyd backwards, and the blonde spins in a very dizzy circle. "They look like statues, but it's a trick! They're alive."
Jeanette runs over and kneels down by Lloyd, by he starts to push himself up.
"Well, what are we waiting for?" He said.
The Ninja jump back on the Jungle Choppers as Jeanette pulls out her dragon. The Ninja race into the jungle.
