(A/N: I'll stick with this one for a bit until I reach a certain point. Also, just saw the teaser for the new season of Dragons Rising, and it'll be in April. And, I think that was Jay on Lloyd's right in the teaser. Maybe if he is found, he goes with them, hoping they may even help regain his memories)
In what appeared to be a futuristic city, a flashing blue beam appears before Cole, completely still, suddenly formed from computer bytes, and started to go down the beam, briefly looking around with curiosity before it disappears and he falls to the ground with a yelp, which seemed to sound digital. He gets up to see Lloyd, Kai, Nya, Geoff and Gewuji in front of him, but with their backs facing him. He then noticed what they're looking at. "Whoa!" He said, amazed at the view of the city from an alleyway.
Emerging from the alleyway into the middle of the street, they could see many people, in either futuristic clothes, different coloured skins or hairstyles, with many stalls. "Whoa, this place is amazing." Geoff said before they start to move.
They immediately came across a market, which had many stalls selling weapons, food and random essential items. "Where should we start? Maybe find a way to customise our avatars? We can upgrade our look!"
"Cole, I know this Prime Empire place is like video game paradise for you, but our mission is to find Jay, not to get designer clothes." Nya said.
"It would be cool, though." Geoff replied.
"Well, can we at least buy some weapons?" Gewuji asked.
"What about you, Blake?" Nya asked, not knowing he isn't with them. "You've been reasonably quiet." She soon turned around, expecting to see him there, but he wasn't. "Huh?"
"What?" Geoff asked before turning to where Nya was looking. "What is it?"
"Blake's not here." This got everyone to become shocked and look at each other.
"Do you think maybe he did end up overwritten." Kai said.
"No, Grunin stopped him before he could enter." Cole replied.
"Then I guess Blake will have to help Zane and P.I.X.A.L." Lloyd said. "Our mission remains the same." He soon turned around and noticed something. "Uh, guys, that mission just got a bit more complicated!"
What laid ahead was a marching soldier in what looked like a black biking suit with red and blue markings, and a black helmet with a red visor. The moment the other people see it, they run to find cover before two more emerge from each side of the soldier, and then another two, and finally, another two. One player and a stall owner notice them before the player took off and the stall owner gasped before closing his stall shutter. Some players near a weapon stall, with one eating sushi notice the soldiers and take off as the stall owner closes up, and the player with the sushi, who stayed behind, cowers in fear, dropping his food in the process as they pass by before stopping, facing the Ninja. "Maybe this isn't as bad as it looks." Cole said. "Some games have tutorial assistants who meet new players and teach them how the game works."
The soldiers soon aimed blasters at them. "Eliminate the enemies of Unagami!" The soldier in the middle said.
"It's as bad as it looks!" Kai said, referring to Cole's opinion.
"Well, they're more like the game's villainous faction!" Gewuji said before the soldiers start to fire at them. They immediately somersault to avoid the shots before staring at them.
Lloyd manages to dodge a laser shot. "Time to go Spinjitzu on these digital creeps." He said, poising as he does so. They put their hoods on. "Ninjago!"
They charge at them to try and do Spinjitzu, only for Lloyd, Nya and Geoff to fall down, Cole to slide across on his hand before falling onto his rear end, Kai spinning out of control and landing in a nearby pile, and Gewuji managing to regain her footing. The soldiers look at each other, in confusion. "Uh, does anyone know what just happened?" Nya asked.
"Or didn't happen?" Geoff asked.
Kai spun as he came back to them. "Come on, Spinjitzu!" He yelled as he kept spinning, and Cole and Gewuji move to stop him as the soldiers resume firing. "Come on!"
"New plan." Lloyd said before they ran into a single line. "Elemental Powers!" They hold their hands close. "Go!" They immediately held them out, only for nothing to happen.
Kai soon sighed, due to his loss of powers again. "Seriously?" Nya asked in anger. A laser shot soon hits between Kai and Geoff's feet, and they start to spread out. Nya immediately took cover around a corner. "What the hell's going on?"
"Not again!" Kai said as he came next to her.
"So, this is what it feels like, not having powers?" Gewuji asked as she came up next to Kai.
He soon groaned. "Can't I go, like, two seconds without losing my Elemental Powers?"
Geoff, who was on the other side with Lloyd and Nya, closes his eyes to try and activates his Sand Sight, but nothing happens. "My Sand Sight isn't working, either!" He said.
"Fight now and figure it out later." Lloyd replied, avoiding a laser shot before they emerge from their cover. Kai tries to punch a soldier, only for it not to react at all, and moved his hand back, quietly squealing in pain. Cole charges at one, jumping and raising his leg to kick it, only for it to move to the side and watch Cole pass by and land in a nearby pile of trash. Geoff raises his right leg to kick a soldier in the chest, only for it to not react to it at all before he did it again, only for the same result, and the soldier soon grabs him, raises him high, and throws him to the ground, causing him to slide back in the process. Lloyd throws punches at, but it doesn't flinch. "I don't get it." He raised a leg to kick it, but it didn't effect it as well before breathing heavily from sudden exhaustion and punched it again. "I feel weak and slow!" He goes for another punch, but the soldier grabs his wrist before raising its own and strikes him, sending him flying back, passing by Gewuji, who backflips.
"It's like our hard earned ninja skills have been deleted or-" She was cut off when a soldier punches her, sending her flying back. Nya somersaults over a soldier before turning to punch the back of its head. But, it didn't react at all, and Nya immediately started to squeal in pain, moving back her hand to look at it before the soldier spun around and kicks her down. Placing a foot on her with enough pressure to make her scream in pain, the soldier raised its blaster, intending to shoot her.
Suddenly, someone charges from the soldier's right and kicks it back, making it miss its shot, while Nya turned away before looking back to see it was Jay, who immediately takes off. "Jay?" She asked while taking her hood off.
"Hey, Nya." Cole called out to her, and she turned to face him. "Finding Jay isn't going to be as hard as we thought." He points out behind him, and they look to see that Jay, who was suddenly in his Sons of Garmadon gi, spinning to kick a soldier's legs to make it jump into the air side ways before punching it, sending it flying away.
"How'd he get over there?"
"Alright, thanks, Jay!" Gewuji was heard, making Nya turn to see Jay, who was suddenly in his Elemental Robes, helping Gewuji up as the soldier she tried to fight was by his left.
"Wait, now he's there?"
"Guys!" Kai called out, coming up to them. "Jay's here!" He points out to Jay, who was suddenly in his Tournament gi and with shorter hair, jumping back to avoid a soldier's punch before he uppercuts it, briefly sending it into the air, backflips to kick it as it was about to land, and spins to kick it, sending it flying back.
"I owe you one, Jay." Geoff said as they turn to see that Jay, who was suddenly in his activewear and longer unkempt hair, sliding underneath a soldier between its legs before spinning around to raise his feet and kicks its back, sending it flying forward.
"What?" Gewuji asked as she and Cole came up to Kai and Nya while taking off their hoods.
Kai takes off his hood as Geoff joined them while taking off his hood as well. "Does he have teleportation powers in this game, or-" Cole was cut off when the sound of Lloyd grunting made them turn to see the last two soldiers had cornered him before the Jay in the S.O.G. gi kicks one down, but gives off a feminine sound, and grapples the last one down.
Kai, Cole, Nya, Geoff and Gewuji head over to Lloyd as the soldier 'Jay' kicked down disappeared, but leaves its helmet behind. They all turn to 'Jay', where it is discovered to be five Jays, with an additional Jay in his very first gi. "Friends of Jay, welcome." The 'Jay' in the Forbidden Spinjitzu gi said with a deep voice before holding his hand out to Lloyd.
He takes it and FS Jay helps him up while he removed his hood. "Which of you is the real Jay?" Lloyd asked, scratching his head in confusion.
"The 'real' Jay is in the hearts of all who live by his word." He holds his arm out to the other Jays.
"Jay's will be done." The S.O.G. Jay and ER Jay said with feminine voices.
"In Jay we trust." The TG, AW and OG Jays said simultaneously at the same time as the other two.
"We are from 'The League of Jay.'" The FS Jay said to the Ninja.
"Oh!" Cole sarcastically replied. "You're all players, and you've chosen to play as avatars of Jay."
"Uh, we're talking about Jay?" Kai asked him. "Right? Like, our Jay?"
Mumbling was soon heard, and everyone turned to see some drones with red rays moving toward them. "Hurry!" The FS Jay said to them. "Come with us if you want to keep playing!" The players immediately take off toward a building before they jump, and suddenly bounce off something invisible, reaching the rooftop, surprising the Ninja.
"I guess we don't have a choice." Lloyd said to them before taking off, followed by Geoff and Gewuji. They move to jump, only to end up hitting the building in random positions with Lloyd face planting on it, Geoff upside down and Gewuji on her left side before they slide down and land on the ground, groaning in pain.
They slowly get up as they look up at the build. "How the hell did they do that?" Geoff asked as he helped Lloyd up.
Cole comes up next to them, and tries to think. "Maybe you have to double jump." He replied as Kai and Nya join them. "Like in other video games, to reach really tall places."
A little curious, Gewuji backs away a little before she jumps in the air, shocking them, but she suddenly bounces off something and jumps even higher, reaching the rooftop, and turned down to them. "It worked!" She called out and waved to them.
"That makes no sense!" Kai said. The drones were soon heard as they turn around to see them coming, with several straggling players running away to hide.
Nya gasped upon them spotting them. "Go with it!" She replied, grabbing his arm and drags him along as they start to run.
The drones spot Lloyd, Kai, Cole, Nya and Geoff, who immediately ran toward the building before they jump, and suddenly bounce and jump again, reaching the rooftop and catching up with Gewuji. "Wow, I just jumped on air." Geoff said, looking at himself.
"Hurry!" The AW Jay player called out to them from a nearby platform, and they turn to him. "The great Jay wills it so!" He immediately takes off as Lloyd, Kai, Cole, Nya, Geoff and Gewuji immediately jump before bouncing to jump again to reach the platform and move to catch up with him.
(A/N: I like to think that the two Jays I added: Elemental Robe Jay & Active Wear Jay, are voiced by YouTube voice actors: Cashlin Snow & Matt Clemens, also known as Emcee Voices respectively)
