Ah, nice to be back from my vacation! On another note, we're reaching the end of this book! The next chapter should be the last chapter, including the epilogue of sorts. I really want to thank BraveS3 for always being there and reviewing on every chapter! Your reviews always made me insanely happy! I never thought that somebody else in the world would go through all of this book! I also need to thank everyone else who has reviewed, because even if you reviewed once I appreciated them all! I felt important for once, and I feel like I've actually accomplished something! I'm often afraid of bias for my work, and to get praise and criticism from you guys is awesome because it means you like my work while I'm anonymous! Thank you all, you've really made me feel special!
Of course, I always have to respond to my reviews as well! For MMM... Well you'll get to find out as soon as you read, so go ahead and move onwards! Of course I remember I randomly described this in an earlier chapter (not sure which one, too lazy to check), but eh. Suspense is much more fun! BraveS3, how did you know? At the time I was a bit obsessed with some of Skillet's songs, "The Resistance" being one of them. So yes, that was a bit of a quote! Kudos to you for finding it! As for Vixenlovesninjago, Myrana is not completely immune to Dark Matter, you'll notice what it does to her below. Along with that, she's more afraid of being hit by the Dark Matter than dealing with Nya. It wouldn't matter which order this event happened in, because the end result would be the same. Both of them would get a dose of Dark Matter, and Myrana's frightened of giving away what she knows about the future. Good catch though, looks like you remember your Ninjago episodes quite clearly! Anyways, enough of this long Author's Note, go ahead and read!
"Brat." I heard Garmadon growl.
"What happened? I remember something tasty, then going on some sort of high or whatever." I mumbled out, trying to sit up.
"You went off rambling about some sort of series before talking about things that weren't even related to what you were saying! One second you would talk about music, the next about how ducks were ruling the galaxy! You continued to call me Anakin, the Overlord Napoleon, and any stone warrior a Stormtrooper! You rambled about some sort of tournament and ghosts! Pirates even! You are lucky even to still have that mask of yours!" Garmadon ranted, yelling into my face. I covered my ears, it hurt.
"Ouch, not so loud please. So I was practically drunk or high. Huh, first time for everything here. Sounds like I said a bit too much. You should keep that away. I'd hate to hurt someone, let alone speak my mind." I quietly spoke, not quite a whisper. My head hurt like an axe was being chopped into it repeatedly every moment. I groaned in pain, and the world spun for a moment.
"I might as well hand you back over to the Ninja. You're nothing more than a burden." Garmadon growled.
"Ain't that the truth." I sighed, I already knew I was a burden. I changed time, I messed up a lot. Garmadon remained silent for a moment.
"You will be confined here until we leave. You know too much about this camp to leave." Garmadon eventually said, turning away from me.
"And so in his final moments, Anakin saved his son. But he did not return alive." I whispered, watching as he left. He closed a door, and I heard a lock. At least there was a window to watch the warriors outside. It would be awhile before I could leave this place. I sighed, and thought of Vastu.
He told me to stay safe, and I get caught and sent to Garmadon's camp. I really didn't want to get caught, and my blurry memory of the event didn't help. The axes in my head wouldn't stop either, and I guessed this was the equivalent of a hangover. I leaned back on my bed, staring at the plain ceiling.
In an attempt to not focus on the pain, I started to sing. I was not perfect at it, but I tried to sing well. Sometimes I would hum mindless tunes and notes, and other times I would sing actual songs. I was left alone and isolated in the room, no one walked in.
Eventually I was given a meal, but it was meager. At least I knew I was not going to starve. I ate my meal, and left the plates on the floor near my bed. After the food, my headache subsided, and I succumbed to the sweet darkness of sleep.
I woke up late during the day, and I saw a cold meal of breakfast nearby. I ate it slowly, watching the warriors working outside. Then I saw Misako and Kozu. My eyes widened in surprise, but I soon realized that this might be my chance to escape. I watched the warriors outside intently, hoping one of the Ninja would help me. After a while, a stone warrior was kicked off a ramp near the weapon Garmadon ordered to be built. Shortly after, the Ninja revealed themselves on the ramp.
The stone army clamoured to get rid of the Ninja, but they failed as the Ninja used their spinjitzu. I stood in the window, unsure if I wanted to be rescued right now. The Ninja regrouped somewhere, and then I could not see what they were doing. All I could see was a sea of black and red.
As time passed, I realized that I wouldn't get saved right now. I stumbled back to my bed, and waited some more. I played around with my bedsheet, and switched to the dirt on the floor when I had enough of trying to make something with my bed. I was about to step on my dirt tower, when I heard a loud horn blare through the atmosphere. It was deep, and sounded much like a warning siren.
That meant the clock hit zero, ensuring the final battle would happen soon. A bright beam of golden light shot across the sky, hitting where the ultimate weapon was being made. The bamboo planks hiding the machine were blown away, a loud crack noise filling the air. I winced at the noise and covered my ears, it hurt. At least I didn't consume any Dark Matter before this explosion.
When the dust cloud made by the bamboo faded, a sphere of light was surrounding the weapon, the beam still locked on to the cannon. Garmadon and the Overlord were standing nearby, starting to laugh in accomplishment. It soon rolled forwards, the light fading. Garmadon ran to the weapon, and the half-tank extended some of its weaponry, preparing for battle. The cannon barrel extended and the machine finished it's extension. Two stone warriors holding a struggling Nya came up, and they spoke to Garmadon.
Garmadon walked towards Nya, and put an apple in her mouth. She struggled against the warriors and the apple. Then another stone warrior came up with Dark Matter, and I growled subconsciously. If that stuff was practically a stimulant, then I planned to hate it with all of my heart. The Dark Matter was held in front of the struggling samurai, before it touched the apple and her face became grey, along with her eyes turning purple. Nya stopped struggling, and was released as soon as the grey finished moving down her body.
"Snow White ate an apple, and was poisoned to sleep unless she could awaken with a true love's kiss. Soon the kiss of light upon Ninjago that will spread shall awaken her from sleep." I spoke sadly, watching as she bowed to Garmadon and ran off. Nya returned with the stone army, and they headed out, running over their walls to get to the coast. Garmadon forgot me. He didn't release me, he would rather leave me behind and stuck in this room!
I glared as they marched out, everything in their path being knocked down. I stayed at the window, waiting for the Ninja. I waited for about ten minutes before I saw the Ninja in their bright colors. None of them noticed me, so I knocked on the window. Still, I was not noticed.
"SURE SEEMS LIKE YOU MISSED ME!" I screamed and knocked on the window to get their attention. Lloyd noticed and ran over to me, pulling his hood back happily. He tried and failed to open the door, so he knocked it down with a hearty kick.
"Sis! Oh my goodness, I thought I lost you again! You're okay! I thought I told you not to do stuff like this again!" Lloyd cried out, hugging me fiercely once more. He pulled back quickly inspecting me for any injuries.
"I know, I know. I didn't get captured willingly Lloyd. At worst I got a headache after being under the Dark Matter's influence. Apparently I was practically drunk." I nervously laughed out, and Lloyd's eyebrow arched.
"You're telling me more about this later, Sis. Right now, we need to find the stone army and my father." Lloyd ordered as we walked back outside, and I was greeted by the Ninja's questions.
"What happened to Nya?" Jay demanded.
"Where did the army go?" Cole asked hurriedly.
"Are you alright?" Zane rushed out.
"Did you know this was going to happen?" Kai questioned.
"Shush. Quick answers: Nya got a dose of Dark Matter, the falcon knows where the weapon is, I'm fine, and I'm not answering the last one Hot Tamale." I answered. The falcon screeched in agreement.
"Then we'll follow the falcon! Let's go!" Kai ordered, and we started to run where the weapon had created a trail of destruction. However, Julien was not able to keep up. Zane said a few words with his father before we continued running, and I was able to keep up this time.
"Um, is anyone else thinking about how this might be our final fight together?" Jay asked everyone.
"Ninjago, not heaven." I simply replied from the back.
"I have." Cole admitted.
"Same here." Kai spoke.
"It's all I think about." Zane sighed.
"Me too." Jay solemnly answered.
"Well, we've come a long way since Sensei found us." Kai stated, remembering their pasts.
"Hey, remember when Kai thought he was the Green Ninja?" Jay tried to laugh out. Everyone laughed.
"That was quite the memory!" Zane agreed.
"He was so not!" Cole laughed, recalling the event.
"Or what about when the Hypnobrai hypnotized Cole and we had to fight him?" Zane cheerfully remembered. We all continued to laugh.
"We should have just kicked his butt!" Kai responded happily.
"You had to destroy my treehouse!" Lloyd quipped cheerfully.
"Or what about when Sensei came out of the guts of the Devourer's belly? Drinking tea!" Zane humorously laughed out.
"Oh ho ho, that was so gross!" Cole replied.
"Yeah, I thought he was a goner!" Jay said aloud.
"Mister empty head!" Sensei lightly laughed as he hit Jay on the head with his staff.
"The-" Cole was cut off by a rustling noise, and we stopped in our tracks.
"I sense an evil presence." Zane informed as we stopped.
"Take your time, I'm sure we'll all love your dramatic entrance." I said sarcastically, already knowing who was there.
"Above us!" Wu warned and everyone but me looked up.
"Hurry up Snow White, we don't get to sleep like you do." I grumbled, not liking her as an evil version of herself.
"OH ow, my jaw! That hurt!" Cole yelped as he was hit by Nya's red spinjitzu. Lloyd got hit too, being knocked down easily by the samurai.
"Nobody does that to the Green Ninja!" Kai yelled in Lloyd's defense. The red tornado slowly shifted backwards, before it disappeared revealing a purple-eyed grey colored Nya.
"Nya!" Jay cried out, moving forwards to reach her. Sensei Wu stopped him quickly, making sure Jay didn't do anything rash.
"That is no longer Nya." Sensei Wu spoke firmly.
"What did they do to my sister?" Kai growled.
"They used Dark Matter, capable of turning anything from Ninjago into 'evil.' Note the 'Ninjago' part of that, because when I had some… Apparently I got drunk or high. I personally don't know the difference. Let's just say I don't remember most of what I did yesterday…" I trailed off and Cole looked at me weirdly.
"Seriously? You're a messed up kid." Cole replied, shuffling slightly away. Nya growled and roared at us, her voice ragged and overused.
"Garmadon must have sent her to slow us down. We have to stop them from firing that weapon!" Sensei Wu ordered, and Cole stepped forward. Nya roared again, taking out a spiked ball on a chain and twirling it fiercely above her head.
"What are we supposed to do? Use our elemental powers on her?" Cole rhetorically asked.
"No! I don't want to hurt her!" Jay refused.
"Jay's right, we just have to find a way to keep her from-" Kai was cut off by the spiky ball hitting him straight in the face, knocking him down easily, "Hurting us…" He painfully finished.
"Nice aim! Should've done that a while ago!" I cheered. Come on, I was isolated in a room for a day, I needed some sort of fun! Nya scratched her head in confusion.
"Whatever the case, we must find a way to stop Garmadon from firing that weapon!" Zane pointed out, and I rolled my eyes.
"No derp Sherlock! Let's just send the power three over there, and we can take on Nya. By 'we', I mean you guys. I'm just going to do what I do best. Because there is no way I'm going to face the stone army with little protection." I suggested, and everyone agreed.
"Then you guys make sure you catch up, because you told me that you'd always be behind me." Lloyd yelled as he ran, Cole following behind to ensure their escape. Jay distracted Nya, end ended up getting hit with the spiky ball of doom.
"Ow, that hurt." Jay wheezed as he held onto the chain the spike ball was connected to, and Nya was pulling back hard, not willing to let go. Jay soon let the chain fly out of his hands as he fell backwards in pain. Nya now quickly aimed for Lloyd, but Cole caught the ball before it could hit him.
"Not so fast sweetheart, this dance ain't over!" Cole yelled, and used the chain to toss her behind him. Nya yelped in shock at first, before recovering quickly and growling. Cole retaliated by screaming out his next move, the Triple Tiger Sashay. A stupid move to yell out your plan, but he went with it and paid dearly. Nya held no mercy and twisted his wrist backwards, causing the ninja of earth to scream in pain. He was held backwards before he flipped himself forwards again.
However, Nya took this as an opportunity and flipped him forwards before kicking him, causing the poor ninja to roll forwards and hit his teammates like a bowling ball, and everyone else was knocked down. Nya looked to me and I shrugged.
"Do I look like I care?" I spoke, crossing my arms. The Ninja decided to rush her as one, battle crying as they did so. Nya responded by kicking them all away, and holding them back with swift punches to the stomach and head. Occasionally she would look at me, but I never moved, so she never bothered with me.
After about two minutes, she managed to wrap Cole with the chain and then toss him against a tree before binding him to it, while pulling on the metal links. Everyone else was down, Nya had already defeated them all. I was the only other one standing, Nya didn't care enough to bother me.
"Guys, this isn't good! I think it's four against one and she's winning!" Cole exclaimed painfully while he was held upside down.
"Perhaps we can use our elemental powers, but without hurting her." Zane suggested, freeing Cole from his bindings. Gasp! What a thought! A smart idea that I could think of in less than a minute unlike them!
"I like it, let's do it!" Cole agreed, and everyone regrouped. The stood before her as a team, each one of them holding their crystal bladed swords. Nya growled and threw two pointy sticks at a blistering speed, but Jay jumped forwards and made a shield. It easily stopped the two projectiles, and they fell harmlessly to the ground. It became hard to hear them now that they were so far away from me. I started to walk forwards to hear them, but that was a big mistake.
"-Sure thing!" Cole yelled, and I was blinded by a whole dust cloud making my way towards my eyes.
"Hey! You hit me too, and I have decent vision!" I complained as I wiped my eyes, because Lego logic. Nya was having a tough time too, if her screaming about not seeing was anything to go by. The Ninja were talking to each other, likely trapping Nya. I blinked and found my vision was blurry for a bit, before I re-wiped my eyes and it cleared.
Nya was trapped under a dome made of ice, and she was smacking against the clear surface. The Ninja said something to her, and then started to run towards the coast again. I followed behind them, and we soon reached Lloyd.
"Did we miss anything?" Jay asked.
"Everything." I deadpanned, looking at the laughing orb known as the Overlord. Then, all heck broke loose as a bright beam of light shot down onto Garmadon, the clouds swirling above him to supply the light. Garmadon was grunting and yelling out in pain, struggling against the Overlord.
"Something is very wrong here!" Garmadon groaned out, his body gaining claws and a very alligator-like snout. His eyes turned a shade of purple, and he looked nothing like what he used to.
"The metamorphosis has begun!" The Overlord yelled to the heavens.
"Metamorphosis?" Jay exclaimed in worry.
"A process where a living being changes from one thing into something else!" Zane hurriedly informed.
"Yep, and we're about to see what happens when you mix Garmadon and the Overlord." I stated, confirming Zane's analysis.
"Who will win?" Kai asked hurriedly.
"Seriously Kai? Not. Now." I growled.
"Father!" Lloyd started, but Sensei stopped him once again.
"That is no longer your father." Sensei simply answered.
"But what about the prophecy? It said I had to face the Dark Lord!" Lloyd retaliated.
"Dark Lord? Overlord? Evil incarnate? Did it not click?" I spoke, pointing my claw at my head and making the motion for 'crazy.'
"Whatever the case, you still have to face him. However, the Overlord will show no mercy, unlike your father." Misako warned.
"You can do this Lloyd!" Kai cheered on the Green Ninja.
"We're here and behind you all the way!" Jay gave his support.
"I'm just going to be a step ahead, so I can catch you if you fall." I shrugged, and Lloyd smiled.
"He's tough, but you're tougher." Cole said.
"But we have to act fast, before his evil gets even stronger." Zane urged, and Lloyd flipped up his hood.
"Let's do this!" He cried out, and everyone but me headed to the 'ultimate weapon' to stop the Overlord.
"You build an intercontinental ballistic missile, and it doesn't kill people. You are not evil at all, Napoleon." I rolled my eyes, and I walked over to near Lloyd would land later. I told him I'd be there to catch him, but I couldn't. Not if he needed to get up the stairs with help.
I watched as General Kozu got shot towards Ninjago City from the cannon, and I laughed as I heard him yell all the way. Too bad for him, then. I saw Kai take over a gun mount and shoot other warriors down, while protecting Jay. However, when Lloyd faced off the Overlord, I payed as much attention as possible. Lloyd blasted the Overlord, and he bounced right back up. The Overlord produced his own beams of dark power, and Lloyd jumped back.
The Overlord was smarter, and punched Lloyd as he jumped, blasting the poor Green Ninja backwards. I couldn't see him through the weapon, so I walked to the side to see him. The two were locked together in a fight of power, Lloyd's green beam fighting against the Overlord's purple beam. Then they both backed off their beams, Lloyd running to get a better angle for shooting down the Overlord. Quickly, Lloyd shot the Overlord with his green and gold beam of power once more, blasting him away. However, the Overlord flew up, unharmed.
Lloyd wasn't going to win today, that I knew. Napoleon dived down towards Lloyd, and punched him backwards again. Lloyd got back up a moment after he hit the ground again, and they talked to each other. I couldn't hear from my distance. I didn't exactly have super-hearing. What I was able to see, was the Overlord's reptile-like form flicker between Garmadon, before Lloyd shot Napoleon back again. Soon, they engaged in hand to hand combat, before they fought with beams again.
Napoleon switched between Garmadon and his reptile form again, flickering for a few seconds. Then, Lloyd was overpowered again, and I winced as he was held in the air.
"I'm sorry I lied." I whispered, keeping my hands at my side as he landed behind me, a sickening crack heard from when he landed on his neck and survived. Somehow. I ran to him, arriving just before Sensei and Misako.
"I'm too good of a liar for my own good, aren't I?" I whispered softly. I pet his head, before looking at the ultimate weapon. It aimed towards us, and I stood in front of Lloyd protectively.
"What are you doing?" Sensei asked.
"In the possible event Zane's dad is too late, I will be here to try and soften the blow, if I can. If you move him away, then I can hopefully stop the weapon from exploding. Otherwise, I'll absorb the Dark Matter, and you can get a second chance at winning." I rushed out, holding my arms up in defiance. Napoleon looked extremely unhappy at my appearance. I watched as the missile fired, and I closed my eyes, only to hear a large crash. I looked up to see the Bounty, and I cheered with delight.
"Enough! We don't need to deal with their pestering. We can go to Ninjago City to finish this once, and for all!" The Overlord ordered, and a giant vortex opened, a quick pathway to Ninjago City.
"Why, oh why can't Hawking Radiation exist here?" I whined as they marched through the portal. Kai ran behind them, jumping to try and make it, but it closed just before he could touch it. Kai fell to the ground, screaming 'no' in agony. I focused on Lloyd again, holding his hand as Misako brushed her claw against his head.
"He really has kept his promise." I sighed, watching his eyebrows twitch as he slept painfully. The rest of the Ninja crowded around us, watching and waiting for Lloyd to wake up. Eventually, he did, groaning as he sat up.
"Did I- Did I win?" Lloyd asked, and Wu shook his head.
"No, but you're alive." Sensei spoke, while Jay and Misako helped Lloyd up. I stuck to his side, not letting go of him. I kept him standing as he took his two first steps forward. He winced as he put down his left foot, and I caught him before he fell.
"Your leg is hurt. No walking without support yet, got it?" I told Lloyd, and he nodded.
"Did we lose the final battle?" Lloyd asked.
"It isn't a final battle until you've got a big drama filled ending, you know. That's one way to tell you've won. When your enemy is vanquished in a dramatic tale and everything is alright. You're lucky like that. Some kids die before they even get a chance to live." I sighed from under Lloyd's arm.
"We didn't lose you, and that is what is important." Sensei gave his reply. Lloyd waked over to a remain of the Bounty, and reached down to pick up the board.
"The symbol for destiny. Destiny showed us who was stronger today. But destiny also wanted us around to fight another day. We didn't lose the battle, we just lost the fight." Lloyd spoke as he held the board.
"And so tomorrow we will fight again, we know what he's capable of." I added in. Everything was silent for a while, before we finally turned away from the scene.
"Come on, I'll get your leg fixed up." Julien said as he took Lloyd from my hands.
"If you need anything, ask me. I have some bandages and I guess that a wrench could work as a splint if you need it." I told the tinkerer. He nodded, and Lloyd looked to me.
"Can I talk to you later?" He asked, and I nodded. Lloyd sighed in relief before leaving with Julien. I hung my head down, and turned around, only to meet Kai's red suit.
"I'm not stupid. You know something about this all. What is it?" Kai demanded.
"What makes you think that?" I glared at the Ninja of fire.
"No matter every time you try to make some sort of amends, you manage to not be there for Lloyd when you can!" Kai growled out.
"That's not true!" I responded angrily.
"Explain how you know everything then! Explain why you've left Lloyd behind, and even given him up to the enemy! Explain how you knew Lloyd was going to land over there!" Kai stepped forward dangerously.
"No." I refused instantly.
"Then you don't care for him." Kai turned his back towards me.
"I do care! I just care about everyone else too!" I cried out.
"Then why let the protector of Ninjago get hurt?" Kai questioned over his shoulder.
"How else do you learn not to touch a hot stove?" I replied.
"Why don't you warn him then?" Kai angrily yelled.
"I can't! It's not like I can just bend everything to my will!" I angrily dodged.
"Why stay then? All you ever do is nothing!" Kai spat out.
"I had a choice, and because I took Lloyd in as family, I stayed! I stayed because I cared! I could have cut off ties that day, I could have broken my promise! You know what I did? I stayed so I wouldn't break them! I can never help on the battlefield, but I know that I mean something off the field. I thought we got over this!" I answered.
"Not until I realized you know the future! If you know the future, you could have helped us!" Kai argued back.
"You know what? Go jump into a hole and die. I've tried so hard to give things up for you, and you just can't be happy with it at all! I'm done with you until you can stop treating me like a criminal." I finished, glaring at Kai with all of the anger I could muster. Kai flinched back, not used to hearing such an insult. Dying in a hole was probably pretty severe. I turned my back, walking away from the fire ninja. I walked down to the beach, and looked at the still water once more.
"What's so interesting about the water?" Zane asked as he sat next to me.
"What's interesting is the lack of what's supposed to be there. It's still. It doesn't move, it doesn't have shells or life. It's not what I'm used to, and I used to love the water. I loved the oceans, and I enjoyed swimming. Now, I look at the water and it's blank." I sighed, and Zane tilted his head.
"Can you explain what should be there?" Zane wondered. I nodded, and I felt my previous rage and sadness fade away as I explained what crystal-clear ocean water would look like. Zane would look at the water in wonder at what they might have been able to do, but never did.
Eventually, everyone else had set up a campfire with some food. The food seemed low quality, and there was no shelter for anyone. I decided to share my rations instead, and set up the tent for Lloyd and everyone else who was older. I kept my sleeping bag, I wanted my own form of comfort.
"Before we all go to sleep, can I talk to you?" Lloyd asked while everyone else set up for sleep as best as they could.
"Sure." I agreed, and I helped Lloyd down to the ocean water I was sitting with Zane at not too long ago.
"Remember when you taught Jay and I how to disguise?" Lloyd pondered aloud.
"Yeah. Jay lost pretty badly." I recalled, laughing a bit at the memory.
"You taught us that eyebrows mean a lot." Lloyd stated, looking out towards the dark horizon.
"I did. Is there something special about that?" I asked Lloyd.
"There is. Are you that girl from Jamanakai who gave me candy when I was younger?" Lloyd questioned as he put a hand on my shoulder. I tensed, eyes open wide. I wasn't sure how to answer, but Lloyd easily noticed my hesitation.
"You are, aren't you?" Lloyd finalized, looking towards me in surprise.
"Yeah. You're right. Ding ding ding, we have a winner. Lloyd Garmadon." I sighed putting my hands to my hood.
"Does that mean I can tell people?" Lloyd asked carefully.
"No, you green dummy! I've worked so hard to keep this secret! You can't tell anyone! I didn't even want to be known in the first place. Talking to you without a disguise was a rookie mistake. I don't want all of my hard work to have some sort of control in my life to be thrown away, Lloyd." I hastily refused.
"Okay, sis. I understand. You've got just as much on my shoulders on yours. Speaking of which, what happens if I fail? What happens if I can't do it or-" Lloyd started, but I cut him off.
"You can do it. Not just because it's prophecy," Another half lie today, "But because you have power, and a good heart. That's something that doesn't happen often. Your power will help you in the final fight, and your heart will lead you to victory. Don't doubt yourself, because I know you can make it." I supported Lloyd.
"Thanks. Even though Sensei said it, it's nice to know it's not just from him." Lloyd smiled, hugging me in appreciation.
"I'm glad. However, you must never reveal who I am. If you do, even if you are family, I will make your life miserable. In creative ways too, I'm sure you'd hate having a song constantly following you, and little accidents humiliating you." I warned Lloyd passive-aggressively.
"Understood. Uh, can you help me to the tent?" Lloyd bashfully asked.
"Of course, brother. You need rest for tomorrow." I replied, pulling Lloyd up and supported him all the way to the tent. He hopped inside, and he found a comfortable spot to sleep, and I closed up the tent. I walked over to stoke and add wood to the fire, before crawling into my own sleeping bag and succumbing to sleep.
Alright! Getting along a bit further into the story... And Kai will now forever be placed as the Ninja who hates Myrana. Just sayin... Those two are going to be rivals of sorts for a heck of a long time! Anywho, I would like to say that I'm working on the next book! I'm thirty-two pages in (thirteen-thousand or so words), and there's a lot to go. So when I finish this, I'm going to take a break before posting the next book. Just to get ahead and such. If there's any questions you have for me or Myrana, go ahead and review! If there's enough questions, I might do some scenes if people suggest any.
Also, just going to say that the next chapter is going to bring on the feels! Kai's a smart cookie, he just doesn't realize the way he's approaching the situation is bad. And don't forget the drama! I'm laying it on thick, and it's going to be one heck of a ride! I hope you all enjoyed this chapter, and prepare yourselves for the finishing chapter!
Review, favorite, follow, share, whatever. HAVE A GREAT DAY!
