Ash and Zane arrived in the kitchen to see two wolves: Lachlan and a new wolf. The new wolf was white with blue ears, tail, paws, and a blue heart-shaped birthmark on his forhead. His eyes were emerald green with spots of blue around the irises. "Do you still have the tooth?" Zane reached into his pocket and pulled out the blue tooth. "Good, hold it over your heart and place your hand on Lennox's head." Zane did as he was instructed and, within moments, a blue dome of light surrounded the two. Zane tried to lightly pull his hand away but it was stuck. He grit his teeth in pain, his eyes narrowed.
"Don't worry Master. It is almost over." Lennox, the Arctiod, said in clear human language. A blue tooth each appeared on a necklace around Zane and Lennox's necks. The light finally faded, leaving Zane breathing heavily and his legs gave out from under him. He landed on his hands and knees.
"ZANE!"
"I-I am fine, brothers." Zane got to his feet and smiled at the others. "I sense now is the time to train the new ninja." Cole left to get the weapons and Jay smacked Zane playfully on the shoulder.
"Glad to have your silly big words back ya awesome Nindriod."
"I still do not understand what is silly about correct grammar usage while communicating."
"Dude, that was, like two months ago." Jay smiled and led Zane and Lennox outside to the woods. There was an empty clearing, used by the ninja, full of exercise equipment. Cole came running into the woods, his arms full of weapons.
"Leo, Sensei Wu told me your weapons are daggers." He handed two daggers in black holsters. Leo took them out and examined them. The blade was purple and blue with a dragon shaped handle. He took a practice swing in the air and smiled.
"I like them."
"Dakota, you are assigned to a bow." Cole handed Dakota a red bow that curve in a 'U' at the ends and a quiver of green-tipped arrows. Dakota held his weapon and pulled the string back. "Ash, Sensei said you have a sword, but all I have left are Zane's shurikens and my scythe."
"Oka- Wait, what are shurikens?" Zane took two small weapons and tossed one at a training dummy.
"They are throwing stars. I used to have the Shurikens of Ice but they were destroyed."
"I have missed a lot."
"You even missed the Final Battle?"
"The one with that giant dragon thingy?" Zane nodded. "Those people who went right into the middle of the Stone Army Warriors were crazy!" Zane cleared his throat.
"We were those people. We got turned evil, except for Lloyd, because we were protecting the city." Ash paled.
"Oh… sorry, but it was really weird that you went in the middle of them." Zane shrugged.
"Not as weird as the battle in the Underworld with Garmadon. Or the battle with the robot in Birchwood Forest." Ash looked really confused. "About your sword problem, I think I have something for you." He ran out of the woods in the direction of the school with Lennox behind him. Ash shuffled his feet.
"I missed a lot." He repeated.
"Really? We didn't notice." Jay swung his nun-chucks at a training dummy and sniffled. "I miss our Golden Weapons." Lloyd rolled his eyes.
"Hey, I didn't get a weapon."
"You're the freaking Ultimate Spinjitzu Master, you don't need weapons." Lloyd sent a golden ball of energy at Jay.
"And always remember that." Jay and Lloyd wrestled on the ground, lightning crackling in Jay's eyes. Ash watched the two until Zane returned with a silver sword in his hand.
"Ash, I believe you lost this." Zane handed it to Ash. "I kept it to remember you, I went to find you a few minutes after the incident but all I found was this." Ash ran his hand along the blade.
"Okay, we are going to show you how to learn your opponent's weakness. Jay and Zane, you are up first. Remember, only a small cut is needed to win." Zane grabbed his shurikens and held them in an attack position. Jay stood up, wiping forest debris off his gi, and held his nun-chucks in front of him. "Ready, NINJA-GO!" Cole yelled. Zane and Jay circled each other, Jay making the first move by swinging his nun-chucks at Zane who blocked it with one shuriken. He used the other shuriken to trip Jay by throwing it at his foot. Jay jumped over Zane and hit his weapon on Zane's back. Zane hit the ground and rolled sideways when Jay swung the nun-chucks at his head. Zane narrowed his eyes at Jay's vulnerable side and kicked his leg into it. Jay went soaring into a tree but he immediately recovered. He lunged at Zane's left side but Zane knew what he was doing. Jay was going to fake an attack on one side so Zane's attention would be on that side, leaving his other open for attack. Right when Jay shifted to the right, Zane put both of his shurikens right where Jay was aiming. Jay noticed it in time and used his weapon to take Zane's legs out. Zane hit the ground, the air getting knocked out of him, and threw a shuriken one last time at Jay. It slashed a small cut on Jay's chest.
"Good job Zane. I see you still have your moves from the Final Battle. If this was real, Jay would be a goner." Zane jumped to his feet and patted Jay on the back.
"That was extraordinary Jay. Although, when you try to trick your opponent, don't look at where you are going to really attack. Look at the fake attack." Jay looked at his torn gi.
"Aww, I just had it dry-cleaned!"
"It is unwise to dry-clean a uniform used for fighting enemies, Jay." Zane said, Jay face-palmed, and Leo laughed.
"Next up is me and Kai." Cole pulled out a scythe and Kai pulled out a sword. "LET"S DO THIS!"
Zane backed up and stood next to Lennox and Ash. "So, how do I call you whenever I need you?"
"Just rub the tooth. It will activate mine in an alert that there is trouble. But I am not leaving your side until after the battle with Drakel." Lennox barked and a blue orb floated into the trees. "Whenever you see that, always duck."
"You... are the best Arctiod ever!" Leo said.
"SAY THAT AGAIN LEO, I DARE YOU!" Ash exploded in Leo's face. Leo backed away slowly with a derp face.
"Lennox is better that Lachlan." Leo whispered. Ash's face turned red and he tackled Leo to the ground.
"TAKE IT BACK! TAKE IT BACK!" Ash shook Leo's shoulders.
"NEVER!" Leo put his hands up and a black ball of energy blasted Ash across the clearing. Leo got up and raised his glowing hand, grinning. He looked at his hand and screamed. "MAKE IT STOP! MAKE IT STOP!" He started running around.
"Leo, you have found your elemental powers!" Zane stopped Leo with a shuriken.
I was watching Cartoon Network and Ninjago came on so I thought, "this is the perfect time to update my story." Lloyd is so cute when he was a kid ^.^ and Zane is using his big words again. Last night, I started thinking about the ending of the story. It probably will not happen in a while but I was still thinking about it, I already know how it's going to end.
REMINDER: The FCC is still on, probably till the end of the story, and if you forgot who to vote for here is the list.
Ninja group: Jay, Cole, Zane, Kai, Lloyd, Sensei Wu, and Nya. OCs group: Lachlan, Dakota, Leo, Ash, Leah, and Drakel Flim. I may add Lennox later soo comment those answers and let's see which character in each group wins. MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR!
