I have an announcement: nothing after season 2 of N:MOS will considered canon, because they suck. (No offense intended for those who liked those seasons). I own nothing!

Sensei Wu woke up on a rock on lava. He got up, the Sword of Fire in his hand and walked to an opening between to rocks.

"Hmmm… The Underworld," he said, looking around.

Floating isles with Skeletons on patrol were everywhere in the dark and gloomy Underworld. Sensei quickly warped the glowing weapon in a cloth after a patrol walked by. He then began to sneak his way through the fortress.

Meanwhile at the fire temple, the team reached it in hopes of finding the sword and their missing teammate and mentor.

"Kai!" Cole yelled.

"Master!" Ani called.

Zane removed his mask, somehow knowing little of what happened.

"The Sword of Fire was here, as well as our friends but I only sense loss. We are too late. The four elemental weapons have left this realm and are now in the underworld, the end is drawing near."

"There's gotta be some way to get there," Ani acknowledged, "We can't let Garmadon and his undead army win."

"How? The Underworld's the one place no mortal can crossover," Cole lamented as he and the others removed their masks.

"We might not be able to crossover…" Kai's voice echoed from the temple; the temple then split open revealing Kai and Nya on the Fire Dragon.

"But a dragon can!" Kai finished, the creature let loose a mighty roar.

Cole jumped and hid behind pillar in fear while the others looked on in awe, their hope renewed.

"Okay, that's impressive," the orange ninja smiled.

"Our father used to tell us stories about the dragons," Nya explained, "That they were mystical creatures that belong to both worlds and ferried between them."

"I-d-whacha… whacha- Are you insane!" Cole stuttered.

"Once he realized we were trying to protect the Sword of Fire, Huh, he actually became quite a softy," Kai added as the dragon nudged him, "Ha-ha! Knock it off."

"Ha-ha-ha!" Nya laughed as well.

"Heww wiikkeee bbblllloooo…" Jay slurred, only to end up coughing.

"He can't talk but he's wondering if you like blue," Zane translated.

"It's my favorite color," Nya responded.

"Hhyyess," Jay slurred, gripping his hand in happiness.

"I don't think you're her type," Ani whispered, leaning over to him.

"Nya..." Kai tried to say, trying to explain what this meant now.

"This is goodbye, isn't it?" Nya asked.

Kai nodded and she added, "Come back to me in one piece okay? I don't wanna have to run the store on my own."

"I promise, I won't be gone for long," Kai promised, jumping back on the dragon.

"I'll keep a candle it outside our shop until you return," Nya promised.

"Don't worry, we're ninjas, we'll be fine," Ani assured as she, Jay, and Zane jumped on.

"Uh yeah... you guys, go on ahead. There's not enough room for all of us on that…thing," Cole said shakily.

The dragon glared at him.

"You're right Cole... but I got a way to fix that," Kai mused.

That afternoon, everyone was on dragons, flying in the sky: Ani on the Energy Dragon, Zane on the Ice dragon, Jay on the Lightning dragon, Kai of course on the Fire Dragon and Cole… clutching for dear life on the Earth Dragon.

"E-E-Easy. Not so fast!" Cole whimpered.

"Whoo! This is awesome!" Ani shouted.

"This is- This is quite fun!" Zane agreed.

"So how do the dragons crossover to the Underworld?!" Cole yelled, then the dragons then began to dive.

"I think we're about to find out!" Kai yelled.

As the dragons near the ground, each began spinning, forming a tornado corresponding to their elements and dove into the ground.

"Is-Is it over?" Cole asked before opening his eyes to see them travelling through crystalline tunnels.

"Hardly!" Ani answered.

"I sure hope these dragons know what they're doing!" Kai screamed.

Each dragon travels through different tunnels and when they rejoined, Zane gave a thumbs up, Cole was still holding on tightly, Jay was upside down, Ani had her hands in the air, Kai shook his head at the sight of last two. They all noticed the dragons were speeding up.

"They're speeding up! Hang On!" Kai warned.

"Got that covered!" Ani yelled back.

Everything went black until the dragons made an abrupt stop, throwing their riders off, although Ani landed on her feet, the others landed on their stomachs at the edge of a cave.

"Solid ground!" Cole realized, "We made it!"

They look around the Underworld, then to the fortress.

"Sensei's inside," Zane said.

"They're expecting us," Ani added.

At the entrance of the fortress, Kruncha and Knuckal are watching the cargo when a cart comes along.

"Hold up. Nothing gets through without inspection," Kruncha ordered.

"Ninja Search!" Knuckal cried before dive bombing into the cart, rummaging through everything, causing his partner to squint away.

Once finished, he jumped back to Kruncha's side, "Ahem. Clear to pass".

All the items were scattered around, his partner groaned.

Meanwhile, the ninjas clanged onto stalactites, making their way across. Jay jumped onto a thin thing and when he climbed up a bit, he saw a spider's face!

"Hababa! Aa-a-a- siuajuia-hisdgusau-" Jay tried to warn the others.

"Can I be the first to say it's been an absolute pleasure since Jay lost his voice," Cole said to Kai and Ani, until the ninjas noticed they're clinging to spider legs!

They all let go and fell to the floor in the middle of the isle, in front of the fortress. They groaned as the hit the ground.

"Uhh... if there are more than one ninja, is it 'ninjas' or just 'ninja?'" Knuckal asked his "friend."

"I think it's just ninja," Kruncha gritted.

"Okay then. NINJA!" Knuckal yelled, pointing to said ninja.

The skeletons began to close in around them while the teens were back to back.

"I count ten bone heads for every one of us. I like these odds," Cole counted, until the spiders came down.

"Well, that complicates things," Ani cringed.

"Uh oh! Anyone got any bright ideas?!" Kai asked.

Meanwhile in the fortress, Sensei reached the throne room.

"Brother," said a familiar voice.

Sensei turned around to see Garmadon and unwrapped the sword.

"Brother," the younger of the two replied.

"Seize the sword," Garmadon instructed and several skeletons surrounded Sensei.

"NINJAGO!" Sensei spun around, getting every skeleton and knocked them out, "You'll have to take it from me."

"My pleasure," Samukai says, holding the Weapons of Earth, Ice, Energy, and Lightning. The two begin to duel.

"Teach him... a lesson," the dark-lord sneered, now sitting on the throne.

Outside, the skeletons and spiders closed in on the ninjas.

"Any ideas? I'm still all ears!" Kai said, Jay got an idea.

"Orayoo ob eaoon," Jay slurred.

"Huh?" Kai replied.

"You feel a weird sensation?" Cole asked.

"Nawooo," Jay slurred.

"You ate an odd crustacean?" Zane asked.

"Orayoo ob eaoon!" Jay slurred a little louder.

"My aunt's constipation?" Ani asked.

"I got it, I got it! Two natives on vacation!" Kai proclaimed, feeling proud of himself.

"Torrrnaaaadoooo of CREATION!" Jay finally yelled, his voice finally restored.

"Ohh… hahaha." The team laughed.

"Good to have you back Jay," Zane said, panting his blue companion on the back.

"But it could lead to disastrous consequences," Cole reminded them.

"We're about to have a disastrous consequence," Ani pointed out.

"Let's do this!" Cole grinned.

"Earth!"

"Fire!"

"Ice!"

"Lightning!"

"Energy!"

"NINJAGO!" they all cried in unison.

All elemental tornados combined to create one large tornado: The Tornado of Creation. As the giant tornado swirled around, it sucked in every skeleton, spider, vehicle and most of the fortress. Once it ended, the ninjas looked back to see that they created a large Ferris wheel with all the enemies trapped in it. The two generals were trapped together, the spiky one eating some cotton candy, only for his companion to hit him, causing it to be dropped.

"Come on there's no time to waste," Kai reminded them and they all raced down the stairs to save their master and the world, Zane took the wild way: jumping off and falling.

They all reached the end and saw Sensei and Samukai's duel. The ninjas were ready to help but Kai stopped them.

"No, this is Sensei's fight," Kai told them.

Sensei shot fire at Samukai but the latter dodged it and sent the shurikens toward the former, one froze the sword that was stuck in the ground. The old man managed to get the sword free just as Samukai fired a lightning ball, but then Samukai split the battle field using the scythe. Ani turned to see Jay eating the cotton candy he took from Knuckal, and elbowed him to stop. Samukai threw the shurikens again, but this time, Sensei dodged but then the four armed freak created and sent an orange energy blast which then hit the elder, causing him to drop the sword; the ninja looked away and cringed.

"Bring me the five weapons," Garmadon ordered.

Samukai, staring at the sword before picking it up, replied, "No... You will obey me now!"

Garmadon merely chuckled as a howling wind blew through. Sensei joined up with the ninja.

"What's going on?" Jay asked, getting frightened.

"No one can handle all of their power at once," Sensei explained, the weapons shook and rattled in Samukai's hands.

"Selfish fool! You think I wouldn't plan on your betrayal?!" Garmadon sneered as the Weapons began to shake wildly.

"What's… happening… to… me?!" Samukai asked, unable to let go.

"You've fallen right into my master plan. Not even I can handle all of their power! But now that they are combined, it will create a vortex between space and time, allowing me to finally escape this ghastly place," Garmadon explained.

The younger brother gasped, this was worse than letting the dark-lord keep the golden weapons.

Ani looked to her mentor and asked, "Is there anything we can do to stop this?!"

She was given no answer.

"Uh oh," Samukai said before he cried and he turned to dust.

Garmadon stepped off the throne and walked towards the weapons until a bright blue vortex appeared behind him.

"Father would not want you to do this brother!" Sensei cried.

"Father is no longer here!" Garmadon replied.

The light created by the vortex was so blinding to look at that everyone shielded their eyes, well… except for the two brothers and Ani.

"Good and Evil: there has always been a balance. Where I go, the balance can be destroyed. Soon, I will be strong enough to possess the five weapons, so I may recreate the world in my image!" Garmadon proclaimed before stepping into the portal, but not without a few last words in a lower, softer tone.

"Ani... be careful sweetheart."

"Don't you ever call me 'sweetheart,'" she snapped.

With that, he entered the portal and both disappeared. The six remaining people jumped onto the platform.

"He's gone, but he will return," Their mentor observed.

"Then we'll be ready for him!" Kai swore, picking up the Sword of Fire, the other others picked up the weapons corresponding with their elements.

"And keep an eye out in case he has anymore evil plans," Cole assured.

"Whatever they are," Ani commented, "We'll stop him."

Their teacher smiled, a great evil was on the rise, but now good had a fighting chance to stop it.

"Then I have done my part; the balance has been restored," the elder said, "For now."

Back in Ninjago the next morning, the dark clouds disappeared. Nya was still waiting in the shop when the candle went out. Nya smiled and saw Kai on the fire dragon, safe and sound. Each of the ninjas were carrying their respective weapons.

"Kai!" she was filled with happiness and relief.

Nya ran out and joyously hugged her brother as the other dragons landed.

"My turn!" Jay shouted, getting off his dragon.

Nya also gave Jay a hug with a slight laugh. Kai was a little upset about that but quickly let it go. As the other three ninjas joined, nearby villagers cheered for the five heroes.

"I'm so happy you're back!" Nya cheered.

"For now, but it's not over. Lord Garmadon will return," Kai responded.

That caused the cheering to stop. The villagers had no idea who Lord Garmadon was, but it didn't sound like a good thing.

"And when he does, we'll be ready for him," Cole assured.

"Because good always kicks evil's butt," Ani added, punching her hand.

The team happily put their weapons together, which resulted in a small explosion, sending them back a bit.

"Ha-ha! Okay, never again!" Cole laughed.

"Yeah, we'll stick to high five's instead," Jay commented.

"Agreed," Zane said.

"Ditto," Ani giggled.

The team, Nya, and some nearby villagers laughed.

"Was that a joke?" Zane asked.

Kai held the fire-sword in his hands then behind his shoulder and pulled down his mask, waiting for the chance to show his merit once again.
