AreiaCananaid- Wow! Thanks for all your amazing reviews! Sorry that this is late, had a very busy and annoying week.

h4x0r4r3al- Nice. Stranding them on the DarkIsland.

17blanceri- Yay! Those are epic plans! And the one with turning them into babies, Garmadon could raise them for evil and warp their sense of right and wrong and take over all of Ninjago with no one to appose them!.. ..

kokokringles- Hehe, Thank you! Hahahahaha, who would let them stalk you? Yeah I had this creeper stalking me once, it was creepy! Luckily my dad told him off. That sounds like a great plan!

thorn garmadon- Ah, like the Vasta Narata from Doctor Who! That would be awesome if you could wield them!

ZaneWalker- Thanks! Don't sell yourself short! You could wish for them to have an incurable disease, or wish to be the ruler of Ninjago and Wish that nobody would question your rule… Maybe I should be the new super villain in Ninjago…

SergeantSarcasm7- Haha thanks! …Maybe Kai with strange Garmadon?... Who knows? That is a good plan! Each of them are so busy fighting for your love they don't realize that you have taken over Ninjago! It would have been smarter to make more than one evil copy of the ninja, the real ninja would probably be overwhelmed and….die… :O

StoriesAreMagic- Thank you! Don't worry, Dareth will be hitting more on Kai. *Evil Smile*. That would be an awesome evil plan!

Elcall- Thanks! {Dang-nabit my evil plans of world domination are foiled once again!}

Ninjagosbiggestfan- }:D That's my evil plan you see, make every body laugh so hard that they fall out of chairs and onto the ground. JK. I was just thinking, if Garmadon turned them into erasers and school kids used them, until there was nothing left of the erasers would they be dead?

Jay Nice- Thank you! Nice, simple and to the point.

Jade- Aw, shucks, that very kind of you to say. If I did own it, I probably would…. That would be a good plan. And they really need to work on their harmonies, too!

randomobsession123- that would be good, they would suck so bad at fighting that no one would stop me! MWHAHAHAHA!

Disclaimer: Of course I own Ninjago! That is why the last episode was an hour long and why there was a gender bending episode! ...What? There is no such things? Then I guess I don't own Ninjago...


Of Training and Tea

There was a slight chill in the air, the type of chill that would make one want snuggle deeper into the bed and blankets to ward off the cold so one could get warm and have a longer sleep; as the sun slowly peaked over the horizon.

Kai shivered and tried to pull his measly thin blanket higher, only to find that the idiotic blanket, or better termed scrap of cloth, was gone. He rolled onto his back and propped himself up with one hand as he rubbed his bleary eyes with the other. When his eyes got accustomed to the darkness he looked around the minuscule apartment to locate his insolent blanket, he silently cursed it to the darkest reaches of the Underworld for falling off, thus leading to waking him up far too early, despite the fact that its absence was most likely due to his thrashing sleeping habits. He found it a couple of feet away from the table that he was sleeping on, he swung his legs over the side and hopped off the table to go retrieve it.

He lay back down on his table bed and huffed in annoyance, he couldn't find a comfy position. Laying on his stomach felt weird, lying on his sides was different and resting on his back was discomforting. Kai wondered how Nya could stand this. After a couple minutes of trying to go back to sleep, he finally gave up and reluctantly got out of bed. He folded his annoying blanket, quietly blaming it for his rude wake-up call, and put it and his pillow in the cupboard designated for that purpose.

Kai stood in silence for a moment wondering what he could do to pass the time. An idea hit him and he walked the couple steps it took to get to the pathetic excuse of a kitchen to cook breakfast, for it was Cole's turn to cook. Cole was a good chief when he followed the recipes, but when he decided to get creative, which, unfortunately; was almost all the time, much to the 'enjoyment' and 'pleasure' of the Ninjas and Samurai, the food usually turned into a disgusting lump that only he could eat.

As he stirred the batter he realized that his peripheral vision had a wider scope than he did in his original body. His mouth made a perfect 'o' as an epiphany hit him, 'So that's why it seemed like Mom had eyes in the back of her head,' he thought, '…Sneaky...'

Kai finished up breakfast; he couldn't believe that everybody was still asleep, well actually he could, he was still tired the transformation must have taken a lot of energy; he would be still asleep if it wasn't for his abominable blanket. He looked around the room, Zane and Jay on the real beds, Lloyd on a blow-up mat on the floor by the bunk beds and Cole on the window seat. Nya was staying at a friend's house, she was the lucky one.

Kai grabbed Sensei's gong and the mallet that was by the door. He knew that they didn't like it when Sensei did that, but they would have to forgive him since he had saved them from Cole's wonderfully creative culinary skills.

He banged it as loud as he could and yelled: "Wake up you lazy daisies!"

The reactions were instantaneous.

Jay jumped out of his bed, landed on Lloyd and yelled, "I'm awake!"

Lloyd gave a muffled, "Agh!" and pushed Jay off.

Cole groaned and hopped off the window ledge, "Yes! I get to make breakfast today!" he said in a sing-song voice, there was a pause, "…Wait…. Did you just call us 'lazy daisies'?"

"Yep!"

"But I'm not lazy! Nor am I a daisy!"

"I wouldn't be to sure about that, considering ourcurrent predicament…"

"You might find my fist in your face," Cole said threateningly.

"What? You want my fist in your face?" Kai asked misunderstanding on purpose, "Your not making sense Cole." He fake pouted.

"You know what? I will not lower myself to your level of idiocy," the black haired teen said hotly.

"You already have."

Cole muttered, "You are as stupid as you are ugly."

Lloyd, who had heard, spoke, "Well that means Kai is not ugly, 'cause she's hot!"

Kai smirked, "See Cole? Not stupid- just infuriating."

Cole pointedly ignored the smirking brunette female.

Zane, who was watching the banter with an amused grin, got up slowly saying, "Was that really necessary?"

"Completely and utterly necessary Zane," Kai replied, still smirking. "Anyway, I made breakfast!"

Jay and Lloyd gave loud whoops of joy and Zane gave a nod of appreciation.

There was a sniff and everybody looked to Cole, whose big chestnut colour eyes were shining with hurt, "But I wanted to make breakfast," Cole spoke, "I was looking forward to it."

"Uh…. Sorry?"

"Well I'm glad that Kai cooked breakfast! I'm starving!" Jay said enthusiastically.

After they at breakfast Sensei and Nya walked in. "We must continue to train Lloyd, and you must be able to fight in your body, I can see that you are much clumsier than you used to be."

"But Sensei," Jay whined, "we just had a traumatic experience! Don't you think we can have a break?"

"No."

"Sensei's right Jay, I can tell that the center of balance in this body is way different than it was in our original bodies," Zane said. "It might take awhile to get used to it and if Garmadon attacks we will have less than 60% chance of winning."

"Fine," Jay grumbled.

"I see one flaw though," Cole pointed out. "I don't want to go around with people knowing that I am the Ninja of Earth. That would just be embarrassing and I know I don't want anybody but you guys," he pointed to everybody in the room, "to tease me. And I know that that is the same for everybody else, right?"

The three newly turned girls nodded their agreement.

"You are forgetting something," Sensei interjected.

"What's that?" Kai asked, a scrunched up look on his face.

"You still need to train Lloyd." The Ninja groaned but Sensei continued, "Cole and Zane I want you to go out with Lloyd and help him ride the dragon."

"Yes Sensei," the said ninjas said grudgingly as they walked out of the small apartment with Lloyd at their heels talking animatedly to the annoyed ninja.

"What do we do?" Jay questioned.

"You will do fighting forms with me to get used to your new bodies."

Kai's eye twitched and Jay groaned and fell to the floor in an exaggerated way, landing in untidy heap on the rough ground.

~x~X~x~

Kai sat with Sensei and Nya in the single room of their tiny apartment. He impatiently tapped his foot on the battered chipped floor and stared at the door to their impossibly small bathroom. Jay had been in there for a whole two minutes and Kai decided that it was definitely his turn. He glared around himself and bit his lip. Whoever the idiot was that thought it would be a good idea for seven people to share one bathroom was just that- an idiot; especially since all of them but two were currently in the bodies of females. Kai had found that it took much longer for a female to go to the bathroom than a male.

'How could Nya stand it?' He wondered with a huff. He was just about to go and bang on the door, when he heard Jay's girly voice rise in a surprised outcry of terror. There was a shuffling sound and Jay burst trough he bathroom door, face pale with fear. He ran over towards Nya in a frenzy of worry.

"Are you alright Jay?" All three of them asked in simultaneous concern.

"No!" Jay cried his voice rising to a frantic pitch, "Something is terribly wrong with me!" Once he had started his tirade it was as if a dam had broken. "I'm having internal hemorrhaging! I'm going to die aren't I? Someone call for help- Gosh I'm going to die! It hurts so bad- Internal hemorrhaging, Nya- Help me!" The words tumbled out of his mouth with frantic speed.

Kai looked on in worry, his previous irritation momentarily forgotten. He shot his worried gaze at Sensei, waiting for orders of some kind so they could help Jay. He was taken aback when he saw Sensei trying to stifle a laugh. Kai felt anger flare within him. Jay was obviously hurting scared and possible in serious danger and Sensei was laughing. Kai felt a thrum of heat pulse through him but it was quenched slightly when Nya dashed to Jay side, speaking gently. He did not know why Sensei was acting weird but he knew that Nya wouldn't just stand there and do nothing.

"Calm down Jay," she said reaching towards him. "Internal Hemorrhaging?" she muttered to herself confused, and then her eyes widened in understanding. She looked a little embarrassed but a slight smile was tugging at the corner of her lips. She gently took Jay's hand and led him back into the bathroom.

Kai was completely confused by this time, momentarily too puzzled to realize he had once again been cheated out of his turn for the restroom. A short while later, Nya and Jay exited the bathroom. As soon as they stepped out into the restroom Kai noted that he had never before seen Jay's face so red. It was only then that he caught on to what he had missed. He felt his own face flush with embarrassment. Of course Jay didn't know about it, he was an only child and didn't have sisters, which was the only reason Kai knew about it. Kai quietly slipped into the bathroom. Once he was inside he couldn't hold back a chuckle at the admittedly humorous nature of Jay's incident. His laughter, however, died in a strangled choke when he realized that he might very well be next.

~x~X~x~

"Ah, the minions of the Brown Ninja are here," Dareth said as he arrogantly walked through the beaded doorway that lead to the child's training area.

Cole rolled his eyes, Kai's eye twitched in annoyance and Jay gave Dareth a look of 'seriously?' under his hooded and cowled face, but they held there silence liked they had agreed to on the way over here, leaving Lloyd to do the talking. Kai had, in addition to the silence, demanded that their cowls should be left up, in addition to the preparation it had taken to hide their feminine figures; he didn't want Dareth to know that he had been flirting with the Ninja of Fire. Also on the walk over to the Mojo Dojo, Jay had been unusually quiet and every time Kai looked at the blue clad figure he sniggered and elbowed Jay in the arm, muttered something and snickered again, leaving Jay's face more red than Kai's tunic.

Seeing that the Ninja weren't answering Dareth's plea for minions, went back through the doorway made of strung up beads.

"Lloyd," Cole whispered, just incase someone was in hearing range, "we," he gestured to the other three females, "need to get used to these bodies before we train you. Capiche pint-sized?"

Lloyd glowered at his hated nickname and sat down by the wall to enjoy the show.

Cole started with weight lifting and found that he had lost none of his strength. Jay and Kai were sparring, and having an easier time than he thought they would have. What he forgot was that while they were flying the Ultra-Dragon Sensei had been teaching how to fight with the different center of balance, or how much they had fallen down when they went ahead of the training.

In a happy mood he went over to Zane to train like Jay and Kai.

They started out circling each other, Cole gave a quick punch and Zane blocked it by crossing his forearms in an 'x' position. Zane retaliated, his arms still blocking Cole's arm, by using his knee, Cole raised his leg to stop the blow and used his free arm to punch him, Zane had to let go of Cole's one arm to catch the other blow. Cole back-flipped away, as he landed he forgot about the different balance and fell to the wooded floor hard on his posterior.

Lloyd burst out laughing, "You so deserved that for mocking my size!"

Cole glared at the Green Ninja, got up and started to attack again.

A minute passed and Zane face-planted when he tried to front-flip and kick at the same time.

Kai and Jay added their laughter to Lloyd's.

"Oh, so fail," Kai quoted from Sensei when he landed on his face during his first weeks of training.

"Silence," Zane muttered at he picked himself off the floor.

After lots more failed attempts from Zane and Cole, for Jay and Kai conveniently agreed not to tell them what Sensei told them. Kai swaggered over to them and looked down at the white and black ninja. "You know," he said as he gave his brothers, or was it sisters now? His hands to pull them up, "I don't think the floor can take much more of your hideous faces."

Cole smacked the back of Kai's head, "I wouldn't be talking, if I was you."

"But you aren't me, and I'm talking," Kai teased.

Cole 'lightly' punched Kai in the arm. "Ouch!" he exclaimed, and punched Cole back with the same force and quickly retreated to the wall were Lloyd and Jay were sitting, "That just makes me not want to help you up in the future!"

Zane and Cole went back to fighting, this time Zane accidentally kneed Cole in the fork between his legs. On instinct he bent down, but then realized that it did not hurt that much, a grin spread across his face, "I think this is another plus to being a woman."

The other 3 females nodded their agreement.

~x~X~x~

Zane looked up as Sensei Wu walked into the apartment and watched as the elderly man glanced around the place, lifted his nose, and took a dainty sniff of the air around them, only to scrunch up his face in disgust, "Did you not take a shower after your training session? You smell worse than Mud Monsters."

Zane saw Cole's face flush with embarrassment and he heard Lloyd snort with barely controlled laughter. "We haven't taken one because even though this is our body it just seems wrong, you know? It was bad enough when I was in the shower when it happened…" Cole's voice trailed away as he shuddered.

"Well in that case change your clothes and have Lloyd was all your tunics," Sensei spoke with understanding clear in his voice.

"Why do I have to? They're not my tunics!" Lloyd said indignantly. "They should wash there own."

"Just because you're the Green Ninja doesn't mean you can get out of normal duties."

Lloyd silently cursed, knowing that his Uncle ruined his last hope.

Zane went quietly to the bathroom to change and he made sure to close his eyes. As Zane got out he passed his outfit to Lloyd, and Jay went in.

~x~X~x~

"I have an errand for you all." Sensei said suddenly. The others looked up at this.

"An errand? Where to?" Jay asked.

"Yes, I want you to go to the Tea Shop to see if she has any gender switching tea," Sensei said.

"That old tea shop?" Kai asked.

"Yes 'that old tea shop', Nya will be going with you," with those words he left the one room building.

Nya walked in and gestured for them to follow. The guys each got up and left the building. They took out their bus tokens and went to the next stop. As they waited Jay spoke.

"So do you think that that lady has gender switching tea?" Jay asked.

"I don't know, the idea seems a bit farfetched," Kai said thoughtfully.

"I think that Sensei just wanted us out of the apartment," Zane contemplated.

"That's probably right, like always," Jay said.

Zane looked up to the sound of breaks screeching.

"Finally," Kai said as he and the other followed Zane onto the bus.

~x~X~x~

As soon as they got on the bus, Jay heard a familiar voice call out to him from behind him. "Jayla? Is that you?" he looked around searching for the owner of the voice. When he found it, he regretted it. The voice was no other than John's, the man who had the nerve to kiss him on the cheek.

Jay quickly pushed his brothers to move faster so he could find a seat and hide. Lloyd decided he wanted to sit alone, so Nya sat with Zane, Jay stole a window seat, Kai sat next to him, and Cole sat right in front of him

He looked around, there was one seat left, it was next to Cole. 'Please don't sit there. Please don't sit there...' Jay silently prayed. He heard the sound of shuffling and opened his eyes. 'Sweet mother of Lloyd.' he thought. John was sitting in the seat next to Cole. John looked back at him. This day went from bad to worse in a matter of hours.

Kai leaned over and whispered in Jay's ear, "Is that the man who kissed you?"

"Yes," he whispered back annoyed.

"Suck to be you right now."

Jay nodded his agreement.

"Would you mind to introduce me to your friends here, Jayla?" John asked, finally catching Jay's eye. All the woman that Jayla was with were incredible attractive in the mechanic's opinion.

"No," 'yes of course I mind!' he thought. "Hmm…. That's Colette you're sitting next to, Zaneyra in the seat in front of you with Nya next to her and Kaira is the one next to me. The one that is sitting behind me is Kaira and my cousin Lloyd." The others gave Jay incredulous looks as he finished up.

"Nice to meet you all, I'm John." He muttered under his breath, "I guess good looks run in the family."

Seeing that the nobody was attempting to continue the conversation he asked, "Where are you headed to?"

"The some tea place for my Uncle," Lloyd answered honestly.

They all suddenly jerked back in there seats as the bad came to a new stop. "Well, this is my stop. See you soon?"

Jay shrugged his shoulders with a halfhearted, "Maybe."

"Seriously? Colette?" Cole queried as soon as John was out of ear shot.

"It was the best I could think of," Jay said. "Do you have a better name?"

Cole opened his mouth before closing it.

"I thought not."

They rode the rest of the way in silence.


And that's the end of this chapter. Is there tea that can switch genders? What is Garmadon up to? What is Sensei doing? Hopefully all these questions will be answered soon.

Question:

If you were a good guy and had the power to control the Meg-Weapon what would you do?
