Chapter 4: How to Build a Dragon

Years ago, before Jay became the Lightening Ninja, he was just an ordinary guy testing out his latest flying invention. It worked for a while, but he ended up crashing into a billboard. When he looked up, he saw Master Wu sitting in front of him, sipping tea.

He told Jay that they he was only confined by the walls he'd built himself, and that he was trying to build the impossible, and asked Jay to help him to do.


Jay woke up from his dream, and heard a familiar voice. "The Resistance never quits! The Resistance never quits." It said. He recognized that voice, it was Lloyd's. "Muzzle turn that thing off, it's getting annoying." Said Daddy No Legs.

Muzzle turned off the radio. Daddy No Legs looked behind him, and saw that their prisoners were awake. "Morning sleeping beauties." He told them. "Guys, I just heard Lloyd." Jay informed the others.

"Oh great, Jay's lost his mind again." Complained Kai. "Seriously, he was on the radio, saying "the Resistance never quits." he told them. "Well at least we know they're still alive for now. We just need to find a way out." said Zane.

"Yeah, for all of us." added Kai, looking out at the dragon that had been captured. When they got back to Dead's End, all the kids of the place crowded around the dragon cheering, while Cole and Kid Wu went up to the cage their friends were in.

"Cole, please tell me you have some way to get us out of here." pleaded Kai. "Well I'm still thinking, but I'm close to a breakthrough." Cole replied. "He has no idea." Kid Wu mentioned. "I'm trying but look around, there are hunters everywhere. If we're gonna break you guys out we'd need a big distraction." Cole reasoned.

"If only that Firstbourne dragon would show up, that'll distract them." Said Zane. "What was that?" Asked Jay. "The dragon everyone was talking about. She and Iron Baron share some history. Did I say the name wrong?" Said Zane.

"We're only confined to the walls we built ourselves." Jay said to himself. Then he announced. "We gotta build the impossible." "That sounds weird." said Kid Wu. "You said it." Jay remarked. "What are you implying, Jay?" asked Kai.

"Let's build a model of Firstbourne, and we can use it as a diversion." he explained. "Good idea, Jay. If you can draw up the plans, Wu and I can build it." said Cole. "Dangerbuffs, there's work to be done." called Daddy No Legs.

"We gotta go, we'll get the plans later." Cole whispered, and he and Kid Wu followed him.


Back in Ninjago, the Resistance was celebrating back at the depot with tea and cake. "The Resistance never quits." announced Karlof, and everyone cheered at that. "You were great, Lloyd." complimented Harumi.

"Thanks, Rumi." said Lloyd. "My son, leader of the Resistance." said Misako. Dareth tried to say something, but he kept getting cut out. "We're going to need more help if we're going to take down my father, any ideas?" asked Lloyd.

Once again Dareth tried to talk, but kept getting cut off. Feeling defeated he left the table, and went to go talk to Mistake. Harumi noticed this, and followed him. "Hey, Mistake." he greeted, when he saw her.

"What do you want Dareth?" Mistake asked. "What, can't I just hi without wanting anything?" Mistake just looked at him. "Okay, look I need some kind of power, like everyone else. Their powers make them cool, but all I have is chest hair." said Dareth.

"I don't have any powers, Dareth." Harumi spoke up. "That's different, you're the princess, that title's cool enough." Dareth told her. "And who's to say Dareth isn't cool enough?" asked Harumi. "You should listen to her words." Mistake told him.

"But you've got to have some sort of magical concoction that'll give me some kind of power." Dareth pleaded. "Hmm, well maybe I could fix up something. Come Harumi you can help me." said Mistake.


At Dead's End, Kai, Jay, and Zane were put to work with chains around their ankles, so they couldn't just run off. The three plus Cole and Kid Wu were discreetly working on the plans for the makeshift dragon.

After drawing up the plans, Jay slipped them to Kid Wu, who gave them to Cole. Then they began stealing supplies from the hunters, and Cole and Kid Wu constructed the dragon outside the camp. After fusing pieces of metals together, making wings, and controls, it was ready.

"All finished." said Cole proudly. "But do you think it can fly?" asked Kid Wu. "About to do a test fly." said Cole. He got in the seat, strapped on some goggles, and started peddling. The dragon moved, but it didn't get off the ground.

"Cole, you gotta pedal harder." Kid Wu called. "I am." Cole called back. He pedaled harder and harder and flapped the wings, but the dragon wouldn't get airborne. At the camp, Cole and Kid Wu gave the others an update.

"Is it ready?" asked Kai. "No, Cole can't get it to fly." replied Kid Wu. "But it's got to fly." said Jay. "I'm holding it down, are you sure you designed it right?" wondered Cole. "I made especially for you, Cole. Have you put on a few pounds?" Jay remarked.

Cole gasped while Kid Wu giggled. "I haven't touched cake in over year, thank you very much." Cole snarked. "Maybe I can fly it." suggested Kid Wu. "You can't even reach the pedals." Cole told him.

"I can stretch, how fast can you shrink?" asked Kid Wu.


In Ninjago Hutchins was going to face Lord Garmadon after the Resistance got in on his watch. "You warned me, My Lord, and I couldn't protect our fortress from your son." Hutchins told him. "No you did not." Lord Garmadon said coldly.

"It's your fault they got that stupid announcement out." Ultraviolet scolded. "SILENCE!" Lord Garmadon snapped at Ultraviolet. Then he turned his attention back to Hutchins. "I warned you what would happen if you failed me."

"You did, sir. And I give no excuse." Hutchins replied. "Then I'll give you a quick and painful demise." Lord Garmadon ignited his powers. Hutchins couldn't believe it. "My Lord I resurrected you." he begged.

With his powers, Lord Garmond levitated Hutchins into the air, and tried to choke him. "Did you think that you were special just because you summoned me? You're just another little worker bee." said Lord Garmadon.

"But...I...know where...they're...hiding." Hutchins croaked. Lord Garmadon released him, and then grabbed him by the collar. "Where?" he demanded. "The garbage depot." Hutchins answered, trying to get his breath back.

"You better be right about this." Garmadon threatened.


Back with the Resistance, Mistake and Harumi had just finished preparing a potion for Dareth. "Now add the tea leaves." Mistake told Harumi. She did, and the potion poofed in several colors. "There, now drink." Mistake told Dareth.

But Dareth wasn't so sure, the potion was in a large pot that was filled just about to the rim. "I have to drink all of it?" he asked. "Not unless you want your special power." Mistake told him. Dareth sighed, and starting to drink.

"Is that really going to give him powers?" Harumi whispered. "(Chuckles), oh it'll give him a power all right." Mistake whispered back.


Night had fallen in the realm of Oni and Dragon, and the Ninja and Kid Wu had realized this was their chance. "Okay, Little Master you can fly it." Said Cole. "Great." Said Kid Wu. They two left to get the contraption while the other three were taken to a bonfire.

"This is going to be quite a feast." Said Jet Jack, as some hunters brought a chained up dragon to the fire. "These guys actually eat dragons, gross." Said Jay. "Where are those guys?" Wondered Kai.

Outside the camp, Cole was getting Kid Wu settled. "Remember stay in the clouds, and have your back to the moon. After I free the others, we'll meet you back here." Cole told him. "Got it, I just need a push." Said Kid Wu.

Cole gave him one, and Kid Wu peddled as fast as he could while flapping the wings. Soon the makeshift dragon was in the air, with Cole cheering him on. Back at the camp, Iron Baron was making some announcements, when everyone started looking up at the sky.

Confused, Iron Baron looked at what they were seeing. They saw the makeshift dragon, flying high in the sky. Kid Wu roared loudly and made fire come out of the beast's mouth. "Dragon, to your stations!" Iron Baron ordered.

Everyone grabbed some weapons, and were ready to attack. "Oh my gosh, it's Firstbourne." said Kai pretending to be scared. "The mother of all dragons, it can't be." added Jay. "It is, she's here to protect her beloved Wind Dragon." said Zane.

"The robot speaks the truth, it's Firstbourne!" said Daddy No Legs. "Attack, we have to protect Dead's End." announced Iron Baron. All the hunters shot arrows at the makeshift dragon, and while everyone was distracted, Cole stole the keys, and unlocked the chains that were around his friends.

"Let's get out of here." said Jay, as they all hurried away. "I've been waiting for this moment a long time." said Iron Baron, as he took aim at the dragon with a chain gun. He shot it off, and knocked the tail off.

"Uh oh." said Kid Wu. And he started to crash, but another dragon flew up behind him, and almost blocked out the moon. "Wow, that machine looks bigger in the air." observed Cole. Suddenly, the four heard a crash.

They looked and saw Kid Wu crawling out of the wrecked machine. "Wait, if Wu's there, then who's..." wondered Kai. "The real Firstbourne." said Zane. Firstbourne began destroying the camp with her fire and ice breath.

Everyone was running around like crazy trying to run for cover or get out of the way. As he ran Iron Baron wondered how Firstbourne found them. Then he spotted the Ninja's fake Firstbourne, and he realized what had happened.

"We can get out that way." said Zane, as they all hurried towards an empty area, but Kid Wu stopped. "Wait, we can't go yet we have to free the dragons." he said. "What?" asked Jay confused. "Firstbourne's here for her kids, but we helped to lure her here. Besides dragons are our friends." Kid Wu reasoned.

"He's right, we have to free them." said Kai. And they all ran back to the dragon. Kai stayed calm, and looked at the dragon as if to say he wasn't gonna hurt him. At first the dragon seemed to calm down, but tensed up, when he saw the hunters approaching them.

"Dangerbuff, you're one of them?" asked Daddy No Legs. Cole and Kid Wu stood beside the others. "I knew there was something off about you, attack." he said. The hunters came at them, and while Cole, Jay, and Zane fought, Kai went to free the dragon.

"Hey, buddy, it's okay." he whispered to it. He carefully placed his hand on the dragon's snout, and the dragon relaxed. Then with a sword, Kai cut the chains, and freed the dragons, he also freed the other dragons that had been captured.

As the others fought, Iron Baron came up with the fake dragon head. "Don't let the Ninja get away." he ordered. But the Wind Dragon used his wind to blow the hunters away, giving the Ninja and Kid Wu a chance to escape.

"(Growls), everyone get up, we're going hunting." snarled Iron Baron. "For the dragons?" asked Daddy No Legs. "No. For the Ninja." Iron Baron answered ominously.


Meanwhile in Ninja Dareth had just finished drinking the last of the potion. "Whew finished." he said. Suddenly a brown mist appeared from his hands. "Hey, I have Brown power." he said happily.

He hurried down the stairs to show everyone. "Well he'll be feeling the side effects that soon." said Mistake. Harumi giggled, and followed Dareth. "Everyone look." he said, showing off his power.

Just then, he felt the call of nature. He tried to open the restroom doors, but they were locked, so he hurried outside. "Guess that's what she meant by side effects." said Harumi. Outside, while Dareth was going his business he saw something.

The Sons of Garmadon were coming towards the depot, ready to strike. "Uh oh." he whispered.
