Still on the raft as it floated towards the thick dark mist and fog, Jeanette continued to struggle to break free of the ropes but couldn't.
Kai's fire breaks his ropes, he instantly turns and shoots a fireball at the pole Lloyd is on, once free Lloyd charges towards the water.
Mammatus and the Keepers don't notice as Kai uses his fire to break his friends, minus Clutch Powers.
"Let's hope this final sacrifice appeases Wojira, once and for all." Mammatus said as he walks up to the water, he turns around to find the Ninja are now free. "Stop them!"
"Ninja, go!" Kai, Cole, Nya, Jay and Zane use Spinjitzu and start to fight off the Keepers as they follow Lloyd down the dock. Lloyd is far ahead from the team as he uses ice to freeze the water as he tries to get to the raft.
Jeanette whimpers as she sees a beast with glowing eyes in the dark fog. As she struggles with the ropes, an ice bridge is formed on the side near her.
"Jen!"
She turns to see Lloyd standing on the ice bridge. "Lloyd!" She cried just as the others came running up and sliding to a stop around him. "Guys!"
"We're here Jen." Cole told her calmly as Kai started to to move, but is stopped when a noise had them all pause and turn in the direction of the thick dark fog. A fireball suddenly lands between the raft and the Ninja, separating them.
"No!" Lloyd cried, looking in the direction that Jeanette went in.
"Over there!" Nya cried, pointing. "I see something!" She attacks it with water, but nothing happens.
Jeanette leaned forward in hopes of seeing at least a scale. Kai notices her studying the fog.
"Jen, what is it?"
She shook her head. "I don't know, but it's big!" She again struggled against the ropes.
Zane creates an iceburg, Lloyd jumps on it, before landing on the raft.
"Lloyd." She cried as he kissed her cheek, then quickly started to untie the rope.
"You're gonna be ok babe."
Soon a fireball is thrown at them.
"Lloyd! Look out!" Jeanette cried in warning, just before the fireball hits the raft, knocking it to the side and Lloyd falls into the sea. "Lloyd!"
After a few moments, Lloyd breaks the surface of the water, his face paint gone. "Jen!"
"I, I'm ok" Jeanette reassured as she moved her wrist. "I think I can get loose. I just - aah!" A giant claw grabs the raft. "Guys!" The raft then reels the raft into the dark thick fog.
"Jeanette! No!" Lloyd yells before he throws an energy ball at the beast.
"Guys! Help!" Jeanette cried, then screamed in fright.
"Jen!" Cole yelled, he threw an Earth Punch, Nya threw water, Kai threw fire, Jay threw lightning, and Zane threw ice.
But nothing happened.
"Jen!" Kai called. "Say something! Where are you?" Nothing. No response at all.
Nya gasps, clinging to Cole with complete fear. "She, she." Her voice trembles.
Still in the water, something floats over to Lloyd. It was wood in the shape of a tooth. "What?"
XxXxXxXx
The Ninja return to the shore, exhausted. Lloyd is able to push himself to his feet, along with the others. And suddenly the Ninja are surrounded by the Keepers as they point their spears at them.
"You fools! You risk angering Wojira? If the beast returns, you will be the next sacrifices!" Mammatus demanded.
"No we won't, because Wojira doesn't exist." Lloyd growled, still angered and hurt that they couldn't safe Jeanette.
That surprised the islanders. "Blasphemy! You saw her!" Mammatus points at Lloyd.
"We saw something!" Lloyd barked, Kai placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Calm down Lloyd." He said gently, but his eyes are on the islanders.
Lloyd ignored him, continuing to glare at Mammatus. "Tell me: Do sea monsters have wooden teeth?" He throws the wooden tooth, when it hits the sand it slides up to Mammatus.
Mammatus look shocked. "I don't understand."
Lloyd took a threatening step forward, both Cole and Jay quickly grabbed him to restrain him. "It's a con. You've been tricked into giving sacrifices to a fake monster."
The islanders looked generly surprised. "But that's impossible."
"Where's Jeanette!?" Lloyd demanded, trying to take a step forward, but Cole and Jay still kept a hold on him.
"Nephew, calm down." Master Wu said calmly. "I promise we will not return without her." He turns to Mammatus. "Why don't you tell us how all of this started? From the beginning."
Mammatus looked from Lloyd and Wu, then back at Lloyd. "For thousands of seasons, our people have been entrusted with the protection of the amulet. Entrusted by the First Spinjitzu Master himself to keep it from Wojira, for if the serpent ever obtained it again, the seas would rise up and swallow all the world. But while Wojira slept, all was peaceful. Until one day." He explained the whole story.
"I did not know where the idea came from, but it was worth a try. We thought we had appeased her, but only a week later, she was back. Soon our treasures were gone, so we gave fruits and coconuts, whatever was left. But we needed something to placate Wojira forever. We needed an ultimate sacrifice!"
Lloyd was getting more and more angry.
"So you thought you'd sacrifice our friend?" Kai demanded as as he, Zane and Nya also had to grab Lloyd.
"We were commanded to defend the amulet at all costs! Not some costs, all!" Mammatus told the Ninja.
"Sacrificing Jeanette cost you nothing!" Cole yelled, pointing at him with his free hand. "But it could cost Jeanette everything!"
Lloyd finally broke free of his friends and charged at Mammatus, grabbing him roughly. "You lost our friend!" He said in a dangerous voice, glaring hard. "You're gonna help us get her back!"
Mammatus cowered under Lloyd blazing anger. "How?"
"Frist. Free my mother and my uncle." Lloyd growled, Mammatus pointed at some Keepers, who quickly untied Misako and Master Wu, the two hurried over to the Ninja. "Now, you're gonna draw me a map of the coastline, and show me any place near the water where someone could hide something really big."
XxXxXxXx
Out at the sea, Jeanette was able to break free from the rope, looking around se quickly found that the 'Wojira' is really a boat. She watched as the boat was guided into a cave. "This just gets better and better." She whispered as the 'Wojira' docks.
Jeanette then quickly looks around when she hears voices coming closer. Using her powers, Jeanette jumps into the air and stays there as she watches two henchmen walk up to the raft and lower it, finding her missing.
"Hey, where'd she go?"
Jeanette lets out a whistle from above, gaining their attention, she drops down and easily took them down. "You boys just made a big mistake by taking me." She threatened, she turned and started to walk, until three criminals land in front of her, one held a baseball bat. "Hey, you're the goons who've escaped from Kryptarium Prison!" She starts to fight them, using her wind to knock the baseball bat away.
Jeanette side kicked a criminal, then turned and high kicked another one in the chest. But soon she was quickly overwhelmed and grabbed from behind. "Hey! Let go!" She was lifted high into the air by a criminal. "Get your paws off me!"
"Throw her out to sea!" One of the criminals said. "She's too much trouble!"
Suddenly the Ninja swing down into the cave on ropes.
"Hey!"
Lloyd hurries up two the two henchmen and knocks them into the water and catches Jeanette in his arms.
"Lloyd!" She cried, beaming. "Guys!"
"Good to see your ok Jen!" Cole grinned.
"How'd you find me?" Jeanette asked with a smile.
"Once we figured out this alleged sea monster wasn't real."- Lloyd started as the Ninja now fought the criminals.
"We had a little talk with the leader, who told us about a cave." Cole continued, knocking a criminal down with his weapon.
"Where some thugs just might be hiding a big monster!" Nya added, also knocking down some criminals.
"Awesome!" Jeanette smiles, still in Lloyd's arms, but her smile fades. "But who'd want a crime ring all the way out here? Do you know who's behind it?"
"We figured that out too." Lloyd said as he lowered her down. "Well, guess who still hasn't been caught from that prison break last month, and who likes to use weird vehicles to get his way?"
An unknown figure reveals himself to be Ronin.
"Ronin!" The Ninja yelled in union.
"I was actually gonna say Mechanic." Lloyd admits with surprise at seeing Ronin as he places a hand behind his head. "But Ronin fits too."
"Of course it had to be Ronin!" Jeanette sneered, she ran at him, using her wind for boost. He grunts as she punches him hard in the stomach and he falls to his knees.
"Hey." He wheezed out. "That was below the belt."
"No." Jeanette took a step backwards. "This is!" She swings her right leg forward, kicking him between the legs, and he drops as he holds his tenders.
Kai shook his head as he walked up to stand next to Jeanette. "You might wanna put ice on that." He told Ronin. "And I thought you always worked alone, Ronin."
Ronin forced himself to roll over so his back is to the two Ninja. "I." He squeaked out, then cleared his voice as he slowly stood up to face them. "I usually do, but when the police hired me to track down all those escaped prisoners from Kryptarium, I realized I had an opportunity to put them to work, for me!"
"Too bad you went through all that trouble for nothing!" Cole said as he shoved back a thug.
Ronin then half ran and half limped for it. "Not for nothing! These islanders had been sitting on a small fortune of gems and gold bullion! But if they're starting to sacrifice people, I may have cleaned them out, so I'll cut my losses while I'm ahead. So long, ninja. Keep them busy, boys!" He yelled jumping for the 'Wojira'.
He starts to leave on the fake monster.
"He's escaping!" Nya cried.
Suddenly Twitchy Tim arrives on a catamaran. "Not on my watch! Come on, storm, give me all you've got!"
Lloyd shoved a criminal back. "Twitchy?" He said in surprise.
"It's never too late to conquer your fears, especially to rescue a friend!" Twitchy Tim called out proudly. "Hold on guys!" He drives the catamaran straight for Ronin's boat.
"Whoa, hey! What are you doing? You're gonna sink us both!"
"That's the plan!" Twitchy Tim leaps off the catamaran and into the sea just as it rams into the fake Wojira, sinking both vessels.
"Someone help Twitchy!" Lloyd calls as he kicks a ties up a criminal.
In the water, Twitchy is leaning on a wooden tooth after he had surfaced. Suddenly Nya's spear is lowered towards him and he smiles.
"That was a very brave thing to do, Twitchy." She smiled as she pulls him out of the water.
Soon the henchmen and the criminals all raise their arms in surrender as soon as they see the fake Wojira is now destroyed.
Cole jumps down onto the boat, making Ronin turn and try to flee. Jeanette suddenly jumps in front of him and throws her wind at him, sending him flying backwards into Kai, who grabs him and pins Ronin's arms behind his back.
"Ok, ok! You got me."
"You're gonna see the inside of a jail cell for this, Ronin." Kai tells him.
Cole wraps his arm around Jeanette's shoulders for a side hug. "Are you ok?"
She smiles brightly. "I am now."
XxXxXxXx
Back at the village, Ronin and his henchmen are locked in a cell. "And I would have gotten away with it if it weren't for you ninja and your pesky friend."
"Why did I have a feeling he was gonna say that." Cole said before he, and Kai turn and walk away, just as Zippy comes up and roars at into the cell. scaring Ronin and the criminals, Zippy turns and quickly following the two Ninja.
XxXxXxXx
The Ninja now stood in front of the throne room as they face the islanders.
"Let me offer my sincerest apologies, my ninja allies." Mammatus apologizes.
"For what?" Cole asked.
"Having our stone guardian attack you, locking you up, sacrificing your friend to a monster, that sort of stuff."
Kai waved him off. "Nah, forget it."
Jeanette huffed as she folds her arms. "Speak for yourself."
"Happens to us all the time." Cole added.
Lloyd smiles as he moves over to his mother and uncle. "I'm just happy they captured Ronin and his thugs, and we found my mom and Uncle Wu alive and well." He said as Misako smiled as she took her son's hand, while Zippy now stood behind three.
"And Clutch Powers." Zane added.
Lloyd did not look happy. "Oh yeah." He said in a not caring voice.
"On behalf of the Keepers of the Storm Amulet of Wojira." Mammatus starts and turns, quickly finding that the amuet is still missing. "What? Where?"-
The Ninja quickly look around, then Nya turns to Dwayne. "Where's Powers?"
Dwayne nervously points towards the jungle.
XxXxXxXx
At the docks, Clutch Powers tries to escape with the amulet. Until Nya uses a spear to zap him, and the amulet falls out.
She picks it up. "I don't think this belongs to you."
Powers turns to look at her. "Oh, how the heck did that get in there?" He asks innocently.
XxXxXxXx
Jeanette is sitting on a large rock, looking out the sea.
"Jenny." Lloyd's voice had her turn to find him walking up to her. "Are you ok?" He asks gently as he sits next to her.
"Yeah." She turns back to look at the sea. "I know it sounds silly, but for a moment, I thought I felt Morro's presence while I was roped to that raft on the water."
Lloyd blinked in surprise. "You did? Really?"
She nods. "Yeah, everytime I feel a cold wind ... I think of him."
Lloyd wraps her in his arms, holding her close. "You are not leaving my side again!" He declares. "Hey!" He cries when she pulls away.
Jeanette grabs his face and kisses him, his arms wrap around her waist pulling her closer as the kiss deepens.
XxXxXxXxXx
Later, as the sunset Lloyd is sitting at the end of the dock, his legs dangled off the end as Misako and Wu walks over to him.
"Lloyd? Are you ok?" Misako asked as she placed her hand on his shoulder.
"I was just thinking, I know Ronin's monster was fake, but I guess I was wondering if Wojira is really still out there, somewhere." Lloyd answered with a sigh.
"If she is, may she sleep for another thousand years." Wu said.
XxXxXxXx
I want Zippy to live with the Ninja! What do you guys think? Oh, Season 14 is complete!
