For Blue, the next two days were slow. The Skulkin were only after the Golden Weapons, though its seems that they have been foiled by some ragtag team of Ninja. The driving Skulkin was always stiff and frustrated.
Now, Blue and Nya found themselves being pushed from the truck, at last. Blue and Nya weren't at the slightest bit relieved. "Why do we need to leave the truck?" Blue asked pointedly.
The Skulkin wasn't really sure. "Because Garmadon says so!"
Blue still had no hecking idea about who the Garmadon fellow was supposed to be. At least the truck was out of the desert. Blue was really tired of being drenched in sweat!
…
Blue was disappointed that their final destination was a volcano called 'The Fire Temple'. They just made it out of a desert! "You guys really love hot places," Blue sarcastically groaned.
As it turns out, Garmadon was a shadow. At least he was in Ninjago.
Nya flinched as Garmadon approached her. "I needed you to bring in Fire Boy," he sneered. "Otherwise, there is no getting that!" Garmadon pointed to a gilded sword that was held in a dragon's mouth.
Garmadon cast a aggressive stare at Blue. "And you!" he growled.
Blue shook slightly. Garmadon seemed like a powerful opponent. He didn't feel ready to fight. Or worthy, he added on as an afterthought.
Garmadon narrowed his red eyes. "I saw you use lighting and yet you deny it!"
Blue was at a blank. "When did I use lighting?" he asked. "I think you have the wrong person because I don't remember anything."
Garmadon bared his teeth to the best extent of a shadow. "That's not the point!" he snapped. "I saw the Blue Ninja, Jay using lightning spinjitzu during their raid for the Scythe of Quakes!"
Blue was confused. Who was this Jay and why was that name so familiar? "I still don't remember using it," Blue retorted.
"We found him with amnesia," Nya explained honestly. "He remembers nothing but the last week that he spent with Kai and me."
Garmadon groaned. "I'll get to the bottom of this," he vowed. "Just wait and see!"
…
Blue and Nya were now up in chains hanging just out of sight.
"I hope somebody finds us soon," Nya sighed.
Blue silently agreed. Kai's probably panicked.
Blue's interest spiked when he saw a lone red ninja peek into the temple as Garmadon's so called Nya disguise wore off.
The red ninja went into a fighting stance. "Where's my sister!?"
Blue gasped. Kai? Kai is Garmadon's so called Fire Boy? Let me guess, Garmadon's trap worked.
Kai quickly started the fight with his attacks doing nothing. Garmadon quickly knocked his sword into the boiling lava below.
Garmadon snickered. "Without your sword, what are you going to use to save them!?"
Blue felt the jerking of the chains that held him and Nya as they were lowered towards the lava. Oh snap!
Nya went into tough women mode, as she struggled against the chains and attempted to ward Kai away from the golden sword.
Nya failed as Kai did some impressive leaps and flips to both nab the sparkly sword and cut Blue and Nya down saving them.
Unfortunately, Garmadon went into attack mode, splitting into several shadows and overwhelming Kai quickly. As one of the Garmadon shadow's went to pick up the precious sword, another shadow smacked him away.
"Brother!" Garmadon shrieked in outrage.
…
The next couple of hours weren't pretty. Garmadon's Skulkin escaped with the other 'Golden Weapons', while Wu went down to the Underworld to follow. The fire dragon tamed itself and the other ninja entered as well.
This was the first time Blue came face-to-face with Jay. Jay and Blue seemed so much alike in each other's eyes.
Now Blue and Nya were welcoming back four Ninja, Wu, and their self-tamed dragon.
Blue was deep in conversation with Kai and Nya, while glancing at Jay every so often. The teen had googly eyes for Nya. Blue silently willed him to be cautious of Kai.
Seeing the sun set in Ignacia, Blue felt like his adventure came full circle, but was only the first, or most recent, of many others. And soon we'll meet that Green Bean! Blue froze. Who the heck is Green Bean!?
