Chapter 15: Mixed Venoms

Luisa's POV

We had been walking the path to the Mountain of Madness for a while, so I decided to learn about my older sister and brother's status.

"So, what is Lupe up to nowadays?" I asked slyly, avoiding my father's stone gaze.

"Well, Lupe is a moon she-wolf, and I believe has taken a liking to Kai, the red ninja." Wu responded. Once he mentioned Lupe liked this 'Kai', it seemed as if my father's head would explode.

"When I get my hands on him," I heard him mutter venomously.

"Wait, what is a moon wolf?" I asked.

"A wolf who can turn into a human or vise versa. But they change mandatory on a crescent moon." Wu explained.

"So, they're like werewolves." I concluded.

"Never call a moon wolf a werewolf. Never compare them to a werewolf, really, don't even mention werewolves to them. They hate each other and always will." My father spoke up. "And please don't get your sister angry. I don't want to break up another fight between you two."

"Yes father." I said, but with crossed fingers behind my back.

In Ninjago

Lupe's POV

I sensed Nya start to have difficulty breathing, snapping me out of my thought.

"You okay Nya?" I asked.

"Yeah, it's just, is someone wearing perfume? I'm severely allergic." Almost instantly, everyone looked at me.

"What? I hate perfumed. It's not me." I told them. "Smells so strong I could die." I muttered. I saw Blue Jay perk up in alarm and lean over to Kai.

"I thought you said it was men's cologne." He whispered panicked to Kai.

"I get them mixed up." Kai shrugged. The ninja, excluding Blue Jay, laughed. Kai high-five Zane, who then opened up his arm as if it were a panel and flicked a switch.

"What are you, a robot?" I asked, almost horrified.

"Yes, I am a robot." Zane answered calmly. That makes sense. I thought, still getting over my initial shock.

"Okay," I nodded.

"Well, looks like class is over." Cole stated. "Time to start stomping some Serpentine before they find any Fangblades."

"So, you haven't been beating them up this whole time I was gone?" I asked sarcastically. Cole glared at me, which I returned with a smirk. Kai, Zane, and Cole left the room, but Blue Jay lingered behind.

I turned into my she-wolf form and found a spot on the floor that seemed comfortable enough, so I lied down and closed my eyes, pretending to sleep. Of course, I kept my ears alert to eavesdrop on the conversation. After a few seconds, I accidentally fell asleep.

In my dream, I was chasing a familiar figure, pure rage rushing through me. I jumped, turned she-wolf in midair, and tackled the target. When I got a good look at her face, I recognized it immediately.

Luisa! I thought, growling.

"Nice catch sis. But you'll have to do more than that to catch and fix the biggest problem, which is yet to come." Luisa snickered. "Tick tock, tick tock,"

Before I could react, I jumped awake, standing tall in my she-wolf form and growling. I looked around, and then relaxed as I realized I was in the bridge of the Bounty.

¿Qué fue todo eso? I thought. (What was that all about?) I turned into my human form and walked out on deck, looking for Kai. I looked around the ship for a while until I finally found him with Zane and Cole in their bedroom, each on their own beds. When I saw the three of them talking, I decided to leave them be and find my ball. ¿De dónde lo puse?I thought, changing into my she-wolf self and beginning to search for it. (Where did I put it?)

"Hey Lu," I heard Kai say. I turned around to see the three ninja looking at me. I barked my greeting back. I turned human again and walked over to him. I hoped onto the bunk with him.

"Do you know where my ball is?" I asked him.

"No, sorry Lu," He responded.

I talked with the ninja for a while, and then realized that Blue Jay was missing.

"Hey guys, where's Blue Jay?" I asked.

"I think he has a date with Nya." Cole said. We all looked at Kai, who seemed slightly tense at the mention of a date with his sister.

"This ought to be good," I murmured.

"We should check out what's happening in Ninjago to make sure the Serpentine aren't up to something," Zane told us. The ninja agreed so they all headed to the bridge. I, on the other hand, headed to Nya's room to chew her for details.

"Hey Nya," I let myself in her room. She was lying on her bed when I came in, dazing into space with a faraway smile on her face. I smirked at the innocence of the whole relationship between Blue Jay and Nya. My past relationships had almost never been quiet so innocent.

"Hey Lu," Nya responded.

"Have you seen my ball?"

"No, you lost it again?" She asked. Up to date, I had lost the ball at least five times.

"Yeah," I shrugged. "Anyway, tell me everything."

"What?" Nya tried to dodge the question. I rolled my eyes. I'll let her win this one I thought.

"Nevermind."

"Do you want to listen to Gangnam Style?" Nya asked.

"I got three words for you. Oppan Gangnamseutail," I answered. Nya turned on her laptop, and clicked on the music video. We sang along to the lyrics, but we both had difficulty singing the lyrics because they were almost completely Korean.

After about fifteen Gangnam Styles in a row, Nya's bracelet lit up.

"You go, I'm staying." I told her.

"Thanks Lu,"

"Oppan Gangnamseutail!" I told her. She left and went off to do her heroic duties while I listened to more Gangnam Style.

A few minutes, and at least twenty Gangnam Styles later, Nya returned, just as Blue Jay started knocking on the door to see her.

"Nya? You ready?" Blue Jay asked. Nya ran over and slammed the door in his face to hide her secret.

"Help me," She whispered.

"Fine," I responded. Gangnam Style was still playing.

"And turn that off. You'll drain my battery."

"That's why they make battery chargers." I argued.

"Just help me," Nya hissed.

"Blue Jay! I bet you can't sing all of Gangnam Style and not mispronounce a single lyric!" I shouted to him.

"Not even you, multilingual Lupe, can sing all of Gangnam Style." Blue Jay argued.

"Yeah. And I want to see if you can." I argued back as Nya got ready. After a few tries, Blue Jay actually sang all of Gangnam Style almost perfectly. Halfway through his fifth try, Nya was ready. "Oh, Nya's ready."

I watched and giggled as I watched the two lovers walk to their date.

"Hey! Blue Jay! Why you all wrapped up? You shouldn't be cold!" I asked him.

"Uh, its, uh, its nothing." Blue Jay tried dodging the question.

"Your loss." I muttered.

"Don't drain my battery!" Nya told me.
"Where's the charger?"

"If you find it, you can watch all the Gangnam Style you want." That got me searching. Eventually, I found the charger in Nya's room, buried under the pile of clothes Nya and I are too lazy to pick up. I looked at the time. "Nya and Blue Jay should be back soon." I muttered.

Then I realized I hadn't seen Kai or any of the ninja since they went to check the status of Ninjago. I also hadn't seen Wu for a while.

With Luisa, Wu, and Garmadon

Luisa's POV

After a few minutes of talking about Lupe, or Cuchilla, father finally asked what I had really been interested in.

"So, what kind of trouble has Lloyd gotten himself into?" Father asked.

"I'm afraid to say the worst kind. He's reopened the Serpentine tombs and now that they've united, Pythor is trying to find the four silver Fangblades to unleash the Great Devourer," Wu responded.

"The very snake that turned me evil?" Father asked.

"Yes," Wu said.

"But why would Lloyd open the tombs?" Father questioned.

"To be like you," Wu put his hand on Father's shoulder. To be like Father? That's my job! And I think I'm pretty good at it! I thought angrily.

"I never wanted him to. Thank you for watching out for him." Father thanked.

"You may think of me as your enemy, but I was first your brother." Wu stated. "And don't thank me, thank Lupe. She's been hunting Lloyd for the past few months. She even went after him when he was captured by the Serpentine. Unfortunately, this resulted in her capture as well."

"Just great, my perfect sister chasing her little brother. As if I don't have enough on my hands!" I stated.

"She is not as perfect as you think. From your father's description, the Lupe you know is long gone. Cuchilla now reigns. As she says, 'Once a she-wolf, always a she-wolf,' but she says it in Latin. Funny, she's fluent in Spanish, not Latin." Wu explained.

"That's because the scripts and sayings from the oldest days of Ninjago were all Latin. Remember? Father told us moon wolves used to speak Latin before they evolved it into Spanish." Father told Wu.

"Spanish, Latin, what's the big difference?" I asked, annoyed. Though, thinking of Lupe always made me angry and annoyed. We continued walking to the Mountain of Madness in almost absolute silence after that.

Back at the Bounty

Lupe's POV

The sun was setting when the ninja and Nya finally returned.

"There you all are! Where have you been?" I asked.

"Honestly, on one of the wildest days of our lives." Blue Jay responded. I noticed he was weak.

"What happened to you?"

"I just nicked myself on that Fangpyre skeleton and got some venom in me, nothing much really." But right after Blue Jay said that, he fell to the ground, breathing heavily.

"Even though you may now be venom-free, I'm still taking you to see Peridot." I told him. "Change into a wolf."

"How do I do that?"

"You think of the feeling of fur instead of skin, and you say your wolf name in your head." I explained. "You have thought of a wolf name, right?"

"Sure, Relámpago." He responded. Once he said his name, he turned into his wolf form.

"I'd better get you to Peridot soon. Nya, set course for the forest the boys tried to camp in," I muttered before turning into my she-wolf form. "Vamos." I told Relámpago. (Come on.)

"Sí," He got up and followed me onto the deck.
