Lloyd came to slowly. His vision hazed and blurred as he blinked to clear his eyes. What the fucking hell he thought. Sitting up he felt sore all over and covered in grit and dirt. He could see the white blond of someones hair a few feet away. Vaguely he remembered that he had gotten sucked into the pendant with Morro and Harumi while Cole and Bree had struggled to stay away from it. He hoped the big guy had been able to hold onto Bree and the door way and they figured out how to stop the thing. Because where ever here was he didn't want the rest of his family to be. Hearing a groan he turned his head to see Morro pushing himself up. Then frantically looking around for someone...Harumi by the looks of it.

"She's over here Morro" Lloyd managed to grunt out. Still feeling like all the air had been punched out of his chest.

Morro scrambled to Harumi first, softly trying to rouse her. Then shaking her, his voice going higher pitched and anxious.

"Dude stop I'm alive" a angry grumble came from her.

The three of them stood, Harumi leading heavily on Morro. The jump to wherever they were seemed to take a toll on her. Dirt and dust swirled around them in the wind. Yellows and browns as far as the eye could see. The sky was nothing but a redish haze of dusk around the rocks. In the distance either mountains. No trees and very little in the way of plant life could be seen.

"Do you think we were the only ones sucked through?" Harumi asked. Looking around like the others.

"I sure fucking hope so. I don't know where we are, but I don't like it. At all" Lloyd answered her.

As if karma hated him at the moment they heard yelling and a few dull thuds, followed by a larger slam to the hard ground. Lloyd, Morro and Harumi all followed the sounds of the noise and around the corner of some rocks they could see Cole and Bree where they had been slammed into the ground none too gently. Cole roused first, popping his head up and then franticly looking around. Spotting Bree he slid on his knees to her and tried waking her.

"Come on, Come on" Cole said shaking her. Only to hear her moan in response.

"Is she alright?" Harumi asked. Kneeling beside Cole and looking her over before quietly adding "Shit."

"I had a hold of the doorframe and the floor and as the pendant was pulling on her it was so violent that I think I heard bones snapping." Cole told her anxiously.

"Fabulous. Fuck this place and this fucking pendant" She grumbled then under her breath muttered a spell that snapped whatever was broken back into place. Bree waking up and screeching at that.

"A little help please Cole!" Harumi snarled.

Cole shook his head and desperately tried to pull up and borrow some of Bree's elemental magic. Calming slightly as it whisper out purple and Bree stopped screeching at them. Rolling slightly she coughed and sputtered in the dusty atmosphere.

"Where the hell are we?" She managed to gasp out.

"Not a clue. We were hoping that you might be able to tell us. And better yet jump us home." Lloyd answered.

Looking around Bree didn't look pleased nor hopeful. Cole helped her stand up and balanced her in his arms.

"This is definitely no where I have ever remembered jumping to. I have no clue where we are, Or even a guess to what realm this is" She answered.

"Can you try jumping us home? Or jumping us back a few at a time? Harumi asked quietly. "There is something about this place that I really, really don't like."

"Give me a second" Bree told her. Rolling her shoulders and her head. Grabbing tightly to both Cole and Rumi she tried to realm jump once. Then again. Both were able to feel the shift with her. But it wasnt working.

"Try just Harumi, shes smaller than me" Cole offered.

"I don't think its that. And like hell I'd leave you here. I think whoever spelled that pendant to trap us here has put some sort of block on my ability to realm jump. Wait... Rumi.. can we even?" Bree asked.

Both Harumi and Bree tried to Djin jump. Harumi at least was able to bring up a small puff of faintly orange Djin magic. But nothing further than that.

"Shit" Harumi spat out.

"Indeed" Bree replied.

"What?" Cole asked.

"You are not going to like the answer to that" Bree said.

"How bad can it be?" Cole asked.

Giving him a look she turned to look around further and access where they were.

"Who ever used the pendant...Its been in Coles family's possession for years. And the only way to get it work work as a portal would be to use the other chunk of the stone it came from. So someone else has the Djin sword of kings. And dumped Harumi and I here on purpose. It just narrowly missed Alanna by mistake. Or whoever has the sword does not know she exists yet. So that's why her and Wu didn't get dragged here as well" Bree replied.

"So not only have they drug us here... but made sure that we can't get back. Either as a Djin or using Bree's elemental magic. So they want us stuck here" Harumi said with a snarl.

"Clouse is dead. Who the hell else knows about Bree or Harumi's existence. Or even knows that Harumi is alive. All of Ninjago still thinks shes dead." Cole questioned.

Bree would have answered save her freezing at a noise. Harumi froze as well. Checking for the sights and sounds around them. Both young women had lived wild in the never realm long enough to know what it was to hunt. And to be hunted.

"We need to go, find shelter" Bree whispered.

The sound of her voice even whispered rolled over the sand and rock around them. In the not so far distance everyone could now hear the rustle of movement. All their talking had attracted some attention. Lighting up like flashlights in the dark behind them pairs of eyes lit up red popped open. First only a few. But then with many more in the distance. No one save Bree knew what these were.

"Run! Now!" Bree snapped. Grabbing onto Cole and trying to haul him forward with a shove to Harumi's back.

Everyone took off. Dodging and sprinting around the piles of rock and sand. A pair of red glowing eyes attached to a body came barreling out of the shadows to Lloyds right. And with a ball of green energy he sent it flying back. Only to see it get right back up. Snarling and snapping and keep coming for them.

"It would be a really great time to use your fucking dragons guys!" Bree yelled to the others.

Whatever chasing them must be worse than taking a ride on one of the others elemental dragons if Bree suggested it. Cole Pulled his up first. Not before punching and sending a red eyed thing flying backwards. Knocking a bunch of its kin like a bowl ball to pins. Lloyd and Morro followed. With Lloyd grabbing Harumi by the arm and tossing her up out of the reach of several of the red eyes. Morro swooping to catch her quickly. Flying through the sandy and gritty air was unpleasant. The red haze of the sun was also quickly setting. Soon flying would be near impossible due to viability. They gained altitude only for Bree to gesture wildly.

"Not above the clouds" She whisper hissed at them.

"What the fucking hells up above the clouds?" Morro hissed back. Understanding that there was something else just as scary if not worse.

"Roc's maybe. I don't know if there are any this close. They prefer really high up places away from the..."Bree was cut off by Harumi then.

"Ghouls" Harumi whispered flatly.

Bree and Harumi looked over at each other. Wordlessly understanding that the situation was grim.

"How do you know what those were?" Lloyd asked cringing because he could guess the answer would be... not great.

"When we were in the never realm Bree taught me all about our family's. Our homelands and where we came from. Those red eyed creatures are ghouls. They are undead predatory creatures that lived on the ground of the land of Dinjago. Hence the whole reason Djinjago was built to float above the clouds." Harumi said softly.

"The red sky, the dust and grit in the air? That's all from when Djinjago collapsed to down below. If any Djin survived the landfall then the likely hood that they would survive long down below is slim. They evolved to use magic and the adult males to fly, shapeshift and have extra arms...that was to try and fight and survive down below... Because Ghouls and Roc's aren't going to be the only monsters down here." Bree explained darkly.

"Then whoever wanted to send the girls here wants them dead" Lloyd said.

"Very much so" Bree agreed.

"Welcome to fucking Djinjago, where they are going to try and kill us all" Morro grumbled.

His voice returned to its hateful and vicious tone that it had years ago. And flying on through the dust and grit no one seemed to want to disagree with him.
