Chapter 5: Tornado of Creation
Sensei Wu wakes up in a dark cave next to the rock he was on before he fell down the pit that was in the Wind Temple. He gets up and picked up both the Sword of Fire and the Bo of Wind before he ventured on deeper in the cave. He finds a path way and he knows where exactly he is. "The Underworld." He said to himself. There are larg parts of land floating in the air with skeletons everywhere. He hides behind a rock as some skeletons walked by before he puts both weapons down and wrap them in cloth.
Once the coast was clear, he venture on deeper into the Underworld till he came across a temple made of bones. He quickly ran inside said temple as he knew his brother is somewhere in it.
Meanwhile back in Equestria at the Wind Temple, the ninja returned to find the others with upset looks while they sit on the steps. "Why are you all sitting here?!" Gaia asked after she took off her mask.
"We couldn't get the door open. It's blocked by something inside." Rainbow Dash said as she flipped over some pebbles. Landrush ran to the door and beat on it.
"Flash! Trail! Sensei!" Landrush shouted, hoping to get a response as Frost took off his mask.
"Both the Sword of Fire and the Bo of Wind were here, as well our friends." Frost said as they others looked at him. "But I only sense loss, we are too late. The elemental weapons have left this realm and are now in the Underworld. The end is drawing near."
"Great, the one place no mortal can cross over." Landrush said as he and Thunder took off their masks.
"This an't right!" Applejack shouted as she kicked a wall. "We can't just give up and let them bad guys win!"
"What are we supposed to do?" Fluttershy asked as she brushed her main.
"If only we had those machines the skeletons use to go to the Underworld." Sandbar said.
"If only we knew how to build them." Rarity said before they all heard a familiar voice.
"We might not be able to cross over." Flash's voice told them before the temple itself split apart. The group stepped back as temple reveal Flash, Twilight, Trail, and Aqua on the back of the wind dragon. "But a dragon can." As the wind dragon roared, Gaia screamed as she quickly jumped behind Yona.
"Our grandfather used to tell us stories about the dragons. They are mystical creatures that belong to many worlds and buried between them." Aqua said as they get off the dragon.
"Are you insane?!" Gaia shouted from behind Yona.
"I was only doing my job and protecting the weapon. Now that I know you were trying to do the same, we have a common goal." The wind dragon said.
"But if dragons belong to many worlds, how come none in the Dragonlands know about it?" Spike asked the wind dragon.
"Because your generation has forgotten our ancestors history, but I haven't." The wind dragon answered before they heard Thunder trying to ask both Twilight and Aqua something, but he can't talk and coughed because of his rough throat.
"He can not talk, but he wants to know if one of you likes blue." Frost told Twilight and Aqua.
"It's my favorite color." Aqua told them.
"Yes." Thunder weakly said.
"Twily, are you okay?" Shining Armor asked as he and her friends came over to her.
"I'm fine, all thanks to Trail and Flash." Twilight said before looked at Flash with a gleam in her eyes.
"I think that whole princess falling in love with her hero thing is real." Silverstream whispered to her friends.
"Your highness, I asked if you can take my sister to Canterlot with you." Trail said.
"This is good bye, isn't it?" Aqua asked as Trail gave a small nod. "Come back to me in one piece, okay? I don't want to run the blacksmith store on my own."
"That goes for you too Flash." Twilight said to him. "I want to thank you all and give you a proper reward."
"We promise we won't be gone for long." Flash said as he and Trail got back on the dragon.
"I'll keep a candlelit outside a window until you return." Aqua said as Thunder, Frost, and Landrush got on the dragon.
"Uh, you guys go on ahead. I think I'll escort them back to Canterlot." Gaia said as she kept her distance from the dragon. "Besides, there's not enough room for us all on that thing."
The Wind Dragon turned to her at that comment, "Excuse me?!" She said insult as Gaia yelped. "Young mare, I am a 'her', not a 'thing'!"
"Oh, uh, Sorry Ma'am!" Gaia apologized. "But I really don't think you can carry all six of us to the Underworld."
"You're right Gaia. But I got a way to fix that." Flash said with a smirk before turning to Rarity. "Hey Rarity. You said you were making a line of clothing based on ninjas, right?" She gave a nod. "You have anything with dragons on them?"
"Easy, not so fast!" Gaia shouted as she rides on the back of the life dragon while she wears a new ninja outfit with a dragon breathing life on the front. Each of them were riding on the back of each guardian of the golden weapons while they had on dragon master gis.
"Relax, I'm not going to drop you!" The life dragon told Gaia.
"Hey, sorry again for the misunderstanding back in the Caves of Despair!" The earth dragon said to them.
"It's cool big guy!" Landrush told the dragon as they flew.
"This is awesome!" The lightning dragon shouted as Thunder rides him.
"Yes, this is quite fun!" Frost said while he rides the ice dragon.
"It has been a long time since I have flown!" The ice dragon said.
"You're telling me! Fresh air and beautiful sunlight!" The fire dragon shouted as Trail rides him.
"So how do you dragons cross over to the Underworld?!" Gaia shouted as she holds on to her seat.
"You're about to find out! Hold on tight!" The wind dragon shouted before each dragon did a nosedive. They were flying towards the ground at high speed before they begin to spine into a spirals. As they were getting close to the ground, a vortex open up and one by one they enter it.
"Is it over?" Gaia asked as she had her eyes closed.
"Hardly, I hope these dragons know what they're doing!" Trail said as the dragons flew within a vortex like tunnel. They soon split into groups of three as they went to different ways. Landrush, Gaia, and Frost took one way while Flash, Trail, and Thunder took another. They're dragons dodge stalagmites and stalactites as they continue to fly on before they regroup back in one path. Thunder's dragon was flying upside down just for fun.
"They're speeding up, hold on!" Flash told the others as everything went black for about a few seconds before they reached the end and each dragons had to pump the brakes. The ninjas however were thrown out of their seats when the dragons stopped before they crashed into ground.
"Solid ground, we made it!" Gaia said as they saw that they have arrived at the Underworld.
"We will wait for you here. Good luck." The wind dragon said to them. They took notice of the temple on one of the giant floating rocks around the place.
"Sensei's inside." Frost said as they got up and saw a bunch skeletons keeping guard. "They're expecting us." They noticed a skeleton pulling a cart full of things to the temple before Nuckal and Kruncha stood infront of it.
"Hold up!" Kruncha told the skeleton. "Nothing gets through without inspection."
"Ninja search!" Nuckal shouted before he jumped into the cart and threw out the items that are in it. "Okay, clear to pass." He said after he jumped out of the cart and is completely empty. The ninja were swinging by the stalactites as they made their way to the temple. When Trail jumped on another, a piece of it fell down and hit a skeleton on the skull before knocking it out. When Thunder jump on a very thin stalactite, he noticed it was moving before he looked up and saw it is a leg of a giant spider. He try to warn the others that are also on them, but because he lost his voice, they couldn't hear him.
"Can I'd be the first to say, it's been absolute pleasure since Thunder lost his voice?" Gaia asked before they noticed the stalactites are moving. When they look up, they saw they're holding to giant spider legs. They were disturbed and frightened that they let go fell in the middle of the skeletons.
"Uh if there are more than one ninja, is it ninjas or is it just ninja?" Nuckal asked Kruncha when he saw them.
"I think it's just ninja." Kruncha told Nuckal. "Why do you ask?"
"Oh no reason just, NINJA!" Nuckal shouted as he pointed to the ninjas who were getting up and alerted the skeletons. Every skeleton surrounded and approached the ninjas as they took out their weapons while they stood back to back.
"I count ten boneheads to everyone of us." Landrush told the others. "I think I like these odds." He said before the giant spiders lowered themselves down to where they are.
"Uh-oh! Anypony got any bright ideas?!" Trail asked as the spiders came down.
Meanwhile in the temple, Wu made his way down the spiral staircase and into the throne room. He made his way to the center, unaware of the shadowy figure waiting for him. The stallion is wearing a helmet with a bone in it and while his whole body is pitch black, his rib cage was shown and his eyes are red. It is Lord Garmadon.
"Brother." Garmadon said and getting Wu's attention. Wu quickly took out both the Sword of Fire and the Bo of Wind when he saw his brother.
"Brother." Wu said as he is perpar to fight.
"Seize the sword and the bo!" Garmadon ordered the skeletons that jumped down from the ceiling and surrounded Wu.
"NINJA, GO!" Wu shouted as he did Spinjitzu and knocked down each skeleton around him. "You'll have to take them from me!" He told Garmadon before Samukai came out with the other four weapons.
"My pleasure." Samukai said as he is ready to fight Wu. Wu backup as Samukai approach him and a piece of the ledge fell into the lava below when he stepped on it. Samukai the jumped at Wu with five of the weapons, but Wu quickly jumped out of the way and was behind him. Wu kept on dodging each of Samukai's attacks. Wu then clashed weapons as they face each while Garmadon watched from his throne.
"Teach him a lesson." Garmadon ordered Samukai.
Meanwhile outside the temple, the skeletons and the spiders were closing in on the ninjas.
"Any ideas?! I'm still all ears!" Trail shouted before he swings his sword to keep a few skeletons back. Then Thunder came up with an idea and try to tell the others.
"Huh, you feel a weird sensation?" Landrush asked only for Thunder to shake his head no.
"You ate an odd crustacean?" Frost asked before Thunder try to tell them again.
"Your aunt's constipation?" Gaia guest.
"We can't understand you Thunder!" Flash told him.
"I got it, I got it! Two natives on vacation!" Trail shouted, making Thunder sigh.
"Tornado of CREATION!" Thunder found his voice and shouted, causing the others go oh.
"That makes more sense." Gaia said as Frost patted Thunder's back.
"But it could lead to disastrous consequences." Landrush reminded them.
"We're about to have a disasters consequence!" Flash told him as the skeletons and the spiders were getting closer.
"Let's do this! Earth!" Landrush called his element as he did Spinjitzu and making the skeletons backup a bit.
"Fire!" Trail called out his element as he did Spinjitzu.
"Wind!" Flash called as he joined Trail and Landrush.
"Ice!" Frost called as he did Spinjitzu.
"Life!" Gaia shouted as she did Spinjitzu.
"Lightning!" Thunder shouted as he did Spinjitzu. Their Spinjitzu soon combined and formed a giant golden tornado.
"NINJA GO!" All six shouted as they did the Tornado of Creation. The tornadoes gather both the skeletons, the giant spiders, and the vehicles before it torn apart the temple. When they stopped, they saw the tornado created a ferris wheel like bone cage that trapped the skeletons. Nuckal was eating cotton candy before Kruncha knocked it out of his hooves.
"Come on, there's no time to waste!" Flash told the others before they jumped down a hole that used to be a spiral staircase and to the throne room. There they found Wu with the sword and bo fighting Samukai with the other weapons. They both clashed weapons as they try to get one over the other. Wu swing the sword and Samukai nearly dodged the attack.
The others were about to go in and help Wu before both Flash and Trail stopped them. "No, this is sensei's fight." Trail told them as Wu shot a fireball at Samukai with the sword. Samukai dodged the fireball before he threw the shurikens at the Wu. Wu used to block the first shuriken before the second one knocked the sword into the ground and froze it.
With Wu's hoof frozen on the handle of the sword, Samukai swing the nunchucks around as he tried to get the sword free. Just as Samukai shot a lightning bolt at Wu, he got the sword free before it could hit him. Samukai then used the scythe and struck the ground that caused a tremor that cracked the ground. Samukai then used the sai and made vines grow to attack Wu.
Wu used the bo to use the wind to hover above the vines before cutting each of them with the sword. Wu dodge the shurikens being thrown at him before he was struck by lightning and both the Sword of Fire and Bo of Wind were thrown out of his hooves. As both weapons landed infront of Samukai, he went over to them as Wu was getting up. "Bring me the six weapons." Garmadon ordered Samukai. But Samukai looked at Garmadon for sec before he looked at the two weapons and picked them up.
"No, you will obey me now!" Samukai told Garmadon, only for him to chuckle in response. Samukai then took notice of the six weapons reacting as their power together was effecting his being.
"No one can handle all their power at once." Wu said.
"Selfish fool, did you think I wouldn't plan on your betrayal?" Garmadon asked.
"What's happening to me?!" Samukai asked as he couldn't let go of the weapons.
"You've fallen right into my master plan." Garmadon told Samukai. "Not even I can handle all of their power. But now that they have combined, it'll create a vortex through space and time, allowing me to finally escape this ghastly place!" Wu and the ninjas watched as Samukai floated and spun in the air by the weapons before his entire being vanished and the weapons fell to the ground. Garmadon quickly stood infront of a vortex that opened when the weapons fell.
"Misako would not want you to do this brother." Wu pleaded to Garmadon.
"Misako is no longer here!" Garmadon snapped at Wu with hurt and venom as the vortex grew brighter. "Good and evil, there has always been a balance. But where I go, the balance can be destroyed. Soon, I will be strong enough to possess the six weapons so I may recreate Equestria in my image!" He turned to go through the vortex before turned to look at Wu. "You...you were always his favorite." Was the last thing he said before he went through the vortex before it close. With him gone, Wu and the ninjas went to the center where the weapons are.
"He's gone, but he will return." Wu told the ninjas as they picked up the weapons.
"Then we'll be ready for him." Flash said as he holds the Bo of Wind, Trail has the Sword of Fire, Gaia gets the Sais of Life, Frost picks up the Shurikens of Ice, Thunder has the Nunchucks of Lightning, and Landrush now wields the Scythe of Quakes.
"And keep an eye out in case he has anymore of his evil plans." Landrush said.
"Then I have done my part." Wu told them. "The balance has been restored, for now."
Back in Canterlot, every creature were happy to have Princess Twilight back. But it has been days since Flash and the others went to go to the Underworld. She was worried that he wouldn't returned. She soon came to the room where Aqua is staying and sees the candlelight she has is still lit. "They're still gone?" Twilight asked Aqua.
"Yeah..." Aqua answered. "I'm just as worried as you are. I already lost my mom and dad, I don't want to lose my brother." Just as she looked out the window, the candle went out as the ninjas came in on their dragons. Both Twilight and Aqua saw them and quickly ran out to them. Her friends joined them before Twilight jumped on Flash when he got off his dragon and gave him a hug. Both her and Flash quickly pulled back and blushed as Trail and Aqua hug each other.
"Hey, my turn!" Thunder shouted as he ran over to get a hug from Aqua. As they hug and Gaia, Frost, and Landrush got off their dragons, every creature cheered for the ninjas.
"I'm so happy you're back." Aqua told them.
"For now, but it's not over." Flash said. "Lord Garmadon will return." Everyone stopped cheering after he said that.
"And we'll be ready for him." Gaia said as she and the others stepped up.
"Then as by the power vested in me as Princess of Equestria, I hereby dub the our protectors if ever any darkness threatens the light." Twilight declared. The ninjas smiled bright after she did before they stand in a circle and took out their new golden weapons. The moment they put them together in the center, a burst of power knocked them back a bit.
"Okay, we got to remember not to do that again." Trail said as they got up.
"Good idea." Landrush agreed.
"Yeah, we'll stick with high hooves instead." Thunder said.
"Agreed." Frost said.
"Here here." Gaia said before they all laugh.
"Was that a joke?" Frost asked before Pinkie Pie popped out of nowhere.
"You know what this calls for?!" Pinkie Pie shouted before she pulled out her party cannon and launched confetti everywhere. "Party!" Everyone was having a great time as they have fun with the party. Landrush and Celestia were chowing down on some cake as Thunder and Aqua were drinking some punch. Everyone was enjoying some food that Frost had made it was great. Gaia was having playing some party games with the Young Six while Trail was charming up some mares. Twilight was talking to Wu about something while Flash went up to DJ-PON3 and whispered what music to play. She then took out a record before turning the volume up to eleven. Everyone turned their attention to the stage as a guitar started playing from the speakers as Flash took the microphone.
