I DO NOT OWN NINJAGO MASTERS OF SPINJITZU!
" Ah my son, so glad you could join us." I heard dad comment as I averted my gaze. Why did I do that... He's different now, isn't he?
" Heh, its been a while, father." Lloyd answered with a wave. I rubbed my arm as goosebumps formed on it. I was in the same room with the man that tried to kill me. Lloyd must have noticed my reaction, because he put a hand on my shoulder.
" He's different now, trust me." Was all Lloyd said as I nodded. Jay seemed to think because of our small conversation, it was okay to talk.
" Check out the new Sensei. Looking sharp!" Jay whispered to Cole, with a grin.
" Silence!" Dad ordered and whacked Jay on the head with his staff.
" Yow!" Jay yelled as he rubbed his now hurting head.
" Close your mouth, and open your ears. Tonight's lesson, is the art of the silent fist. To fight without fighting. May I have a volunteer?" I heard my dad asked. Lloyd looked at me as our eyes connected.
" You should go, show him whose boss." Lloyd joked as I looked to the floor, clenching my fists. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I am not doing this...
" I will volunteer." I spoke up shakily, my hand raising slowly.
" Ah, good. What is your name?" Dad asked me as I rose, thinking it over.
" Bailey." I told him, my platinum blonde hair shining in the light.
" You look very familiar... have we met?" Garmadon asked me.
" ...You could say that." I told him, he hesitated, but shook his head, looking at me once again.
" Attack me." He ordered as I charged. I tried to kick him, but he dodged, as I slammed into his table, the candles on it rocking slightly. My eyes grew wide as I grabbed them, steadying them carefully. He isn't any ordinary old man, I realized. I would need some tricks up my sleeves...
" You see? The key is balance. Let your opponent fight herself." Garmadon told the class. I made a mental note of it, as I charged, and tried to punch him in the face, but his head dodged to the side, I tried to kick him in the face, but he calmly tiled it back. I jumped back and charged again, trying to tackle him, but he dodged to the side. I tried to punch him one more time, behind him so he couldn't see where I punched, therefore making it unable to dodge. but he dodged again, like he had eyes in the back of his head and he could see perfectly. But didn't all teachers, and Sensei's have that special ability? I shook my head, wiping away the foolish thought and bolted toward him, jumping up and preparing to attack again, but he just ducked as I slid over his back. Dad jumped up, slingshot me into the ground, as I groaned in pain. My body was on fire, as my vision blurred and I could hear my heart pumping over his words.
" Enemy... Tire... Herself..." Was all I could make out, but I didn't care. Even if I'm not one, a ninja never quits. And I will stop at nothing to impress my father. I got up slowly a little shakily, clenching my arm in pain, one eye opened the other squinted. Dad noticed this, and a mark of concern entered his face, but I ignored it. Pure energy surged my body and stared at him before I back flipped and bolted again, jumping up, putting my foot first, preparing to kick him in the face. I saw my dad give a smirk I always used and known well, as he yawned. I let out a screech of fury, this was my last kick. I didn't have enough energy for another. Too my disappointment, he dodged underneath my as I looked surprised. I slammed into the wall and fell on my back, my vision getting blurrier by the second. I breathed heavily, panting. I felt on fire, as I realized something was very wrong. The sweet lull for unconsciousness pulled my mind as I opened my eyes weakly and saw Kai, Jay, Cole and Lloyd looked down at me, worried, before I let my head droop, entering deep sleep.
I woke up in a small light grey cell. Where am I? I thought, panic stricken me.
" Ah, your awake, Bailey." A voice erupted the air, a voice I knew to well.
" O-Overlord?" My voice quivered. " What do you want?"
" I want Lloyd's golden power." The Overlord told me.
" ...I already know that." I crossed my arms and rolled my eyes when he didn't continue.
" You will fetch me Lloyd." The Overlord continued.
" Um... let me think for a second." I told him sarcastically " No." I turned to leave the room but stopped as he continued.
" If you do not, I will make sure you never see him again." The Overlord boomed.
" You need him." I snapped, knowing "you will never see him again" meant to kill him.
" There is more than one golden ninja. But then, there is one more option." The voice continued. " Turn yourself in, and I will let Lloyd go." The Overlord boomed as I hesitated.
" You have three days to decide. If you dont decide within then, we will take matters into our own hands and take Lloyd away." The Overlord boomed as the gray room vanished and I appeared into another.
It had red walls and a dark gray floor, with a machine to the left and a screen that read 75% to the right. On top of the screen was a ball that shot golden energy into a box that had black and purple energy in it. The Overlord. But that isn't what I had my gaze on. My eyes were dead set on a circular glass container in the corner, farthest from me. I approached it slowly as I saw who was in it, Lloyd. He looked weak, his legs about to give out. If the room wasn't muted, I would be able to hear him groan as the machine took away all the power he had. I touched the palm of my hand on the glass, my eyes welling up with tears. He didn't deserve this. The glass was so clear, I could see my reflection in it, me in Lloyd's place. I had a choice, either Lloyd could go through all of this, or I could take Lloyd's place. I watched Lloyd drop to his knees. As I screamed.
" No!" I yelled.
I screamed as I sat up, a washcloth that was on my head, now on the floor. I bolted out of the small bed, not even caring where I was. A wave us exhaustion engulfed me as I immediately hitting the floor with a hard thud.
" Whoa whoa whoa. Take it easy!" I heard a familiar voice.
" Lloyd!" I screamed in happiness as I tried to get up, a little wobbly. I noticed bandadges, wrapping up all the way to my elbows. Was it really that bad? My legs screamed in protest as I tried to get up, but I just ignored it as I embraced him into a hug and began to cry at the sight of him. He was okay...
" Wha-" He could never finish his sentence. After a second of confusion, He gave a soft smile and returned the hug.
" W-where am I?" I decided to ask as I pulled away from him.
" Dads bedroom. You have been out for about three hours, and the guys are still training with dad." Lloyd answered.
" Does he know yet?" I asked, wondering if dad figured out who I was.
" Yeah, he had his suspicions in the beginning, and when you fought he just... knew." Lloyd answered as I nodded and walked shakily out of the room. I could barley walk, but that didn't stop me from getting to the door.
" Hey! Where are you going?" Lloyd asked and placed a hand on my shoulder, stopping me in my tracks.
" To go train with dad, I need to be as strong as I can be, and your not gonna stop me until I get there." I replied stubbornly. After what I just saw, I cant let that happen to Lloyd. So, I need to get strong and at least be able to take care of myself in battle. I glanced behind me to see Lloyd's grip tightening.
" Your not going anywhere in this condition. Your staying here."
" But if I do that then how am I going to be able to-!" I stopped what I was saying immediately.
" What?" He asked me as I winced, because of his grip growing even tighter.
" Nothing. Lloyd, your hurting me." I told him softly. His eyes wide slightly as he loosened his grip, but didn't let go. Suddenly, a girl screamed outside as I gasped. She sounded in pain.
" Stay here." Lloyd told me as he left the room, a small click entering my ears as the door closed. Of course he locked the door, he knows I never listen. Smart kid. I looked around the room for something specific. There was a neatly made bed, with a bucket of water and may used wash clothes beside it along with some bandages. I noticed a dresser with candles on top of it, and a family photo of me, Lloyd as kids, with Mom and dad behind us. I drew my attention to above the bed. A window, just what a needed. I tried to open it, but to my dismay, it wouldn't budge. I sighed and decided to stare at the scene bellow. Kai, Cole, Dad, and Jay were outside, Lloyd quickly joining them, as I saw Zane approach them, P.I.X.A.L being tied up close behind him.
" Its P.I.X.A.L! But how did she find us?" Cole asked.
" Why dont we take her apart to find out?" Kai asked, more like stated with anger as he approached Zane threateningly.
" Please. She was only doing what she was programmed to do. She may hold many answers, but perhaps there is an easier way." Zane told him as he picked up his techno blade and ignited it, the icy blade of it shining in the moonlight.
" No I-" Dad began, but was interrupted.
" Ah ah ah. Relax, it isn't a weapon. Only hacks into things." Jay answered as Zane touched the tip of the blade lightly on P.I.X.A.L's head. A blue light engulfed her as her usual red eyes returned normal to green.
" W-where am I?" Why am I tied up?" P.I.X.A.L asked as Zane approached her and undid the rope.
" You were under the control of the overlord. How did you find us?" Zane asked the robot.
" They mimed Sensei Wu's memory and the Overlord knows all of your hiding places." P.I.X.A.L answered.
" Yes, but the Overlord wants your son. His golden power is the only way he could escape the digital realm and become real." P.I.X.A.L answered causing me to gasp. That dream... could it be a vision of what will happen in the future? In the future, where the Overlord wins? I shook my head. A ninja never quits. And we all will stop at nothing to stop the Overlord.
" Why did Borg give us the techno blades to protect? Why are they so importance?" Kai asked.
" Because together, they can reboot the system, wipe the master computer clean, and destroy the overlord virus... for good." P.I.X.A.L told them as the ninja looked at the weapons in amazement.
" Wow." They all said in unison. Their amazement stopped quickly when P.I.X.A.L suddenly gasped.
" What is it?" Nya asked.
" I didn't come alone." P.I.X.A.L answered.
" Who else is with you?" Jay asked.
" Nindroids." P.I.X.A.L answered.
" NINDROIDS?!" Everyone except for P.I.X.A.L exclaimed in surprise.
" Where are they? I dont see any of them!" Jay told them as he looked around everywhere for them. I heard a rumbling sound on the roof as I gasped. Around the ninja, were now eighteen nindroids. I gasped along with everyone else. They grabbed their weapons and charged as I bolted away from the window, three lasers shooting into the room, one of them destroying the only family photo in the room.
" 5 vs 18. Probability of success to low to quantify." P.I.X.A.L told them as I approached the window, my eyes glued to the fight. I saw Kai charge and try to kick the nindroid in the face, but he held a hand up as Kai kicked the hand instead, The nindroid acting like it was nothing. A little away, Zane was also fighting, but the Nindroid easily knocked him off a cliff.
" These Nindroids are so must faste-" Jay began as he fought a nindriod but was cut off when another hit him in the face. I winced, that had to hurt. I turned my attention to Cole, who was fighting well, dodging all of the nindroids attacks.
" Nice kick, now see mine! NINJA GO!" Cole yelled as he unleashed spinjitzu, throwing a nindroid to the ground, kicking another off the cliff. Dad on the other hand, went at a different approach. He watched as four nindroids charged at him, all in four corners, before in the nick of time, he jumped on top of his staff and did a hand stand, knocking the four nindroids unconscious. I gasped at the sight of Zane, down bellow, two nindroids grabbing his arms, while three other attacked. Lloyd was the closest to him, but was still far away. As he took out one of the Nindroids, he began to allow his hands to fizzle with green energy, my eyes growing wide.
" No! Your power only makes them stronger!" Nya yelled as he nodded and ran toward Zane. He would never make it in time, I was closer, I could do it. I grabbed the bucket of water and threw it at the window, shattering it as I jumped out the window, falling a story bellow. I hit face first to the ground, gasping when I saw three nindroids approaching me. I scooted away and dodged to the side weakly. Why was this a good idea?! I bolted passing Kai, Jay, and Cole as they gasped in surprise.
" Bailey!" Cole yelled.
" Come back!" Jay yelled.
" You cant fight!" Kai continued. Yes, it was true that I didn't have a weapon, or even fought before in my life, but there is one thing that I know and take seriously. A ninja never quits. I bolted into the fight and fought roughly against the five nindroids. And I was loosing. My muscles were screamed in pain, while I kicked on nindroid, I was kicked by four others. Zane was next to me, unconscious, half of his fake face pealed off.
" Bailey! Get out of there NOW!" I heard a yell. My eyes grew wide. Lloyd? I couldn't escape the nindroids, they clenched my arms and legs, pulling me closer into them as I let out a cry in pain. They were too close... I cant breathe! I was trapped, and couldn't escape.
Dun dun dun! CLIFFHANGER! Sorry I didn't update in a while, school just started with unleashed a wave of homework ( imagines house getting flooded in homework papers ) NOOOOOO! Well, I will try to update soon, and if you are curious, this book will end at the end of the titanium ninja episode.
