Ninjago: Ninja and Purple Dragon of Spinjitzu

by Justincole15

(This story is a crossover with Ninjago and Spyro the Dragon) 20 years after the serpentine battle and 10 years after the defeat of Malefor. A dragon egg from the Dragon Realms floated into Ninjago, soon founded by a pair of humans. The young dragon was raised by them with a older child as a brother. 14 years later, Cinder will learn about who he is and his biological family.

Jay grumbles as he carries a mannequin of Samurkai. Cinder just rolled his eyes at the blue ninja as he used his tail to sweep the floor. It has been a couple of days after the Day of the Departed and a few weeks since he's gotten his mom's jewelry. Right now the team was cleaning up the mess after Yang brought the enemies they defeated to fight them while the ghost sensei tried to regain his physical body. /span/p

Jay accused looking at the black ninja, who was looking at Yang's portrait. Cinder sighed at the blue ninja. His brother did release the sensei by the weapon he used to bring them from the Departed Realm. But the tradeoff was well worth it as the Earth Ninja wasn't a ghost anymore. Unfortunately for the dragonet he couldn't help because his Uncle Ted and Aunt Marie were staying for the holiday and with his cousins Ali and Cindi wanting to see the sites of the city he had to stay and distract them from the ordeal (as well as hiding his draconian heritage)./span/p

Something that he gained during the battle was a new move that allowed him to punch through anything with ease. But being human again was having trouble controlling it.

But before he could he heard the fluttering of wings to see his uncle coming over, who seemed disoriented as the others. /span/p

Sparx asked and the dragonet sighed and explained how 2 years ago he learned how to control Time, a small amount of it, from Ignitus. Now a huge wave of Time Energy came through and he got to watch everything move super fast. His uncle understood and said he would be quiet, saying that the dragonet's father has that ability when going to stop the Ape King. Cinder hummed as the Bounty headed to the old monastery and calmed his mind for a fight that would be tough. While doing so the Bounty has left Ninjago City and towards the mountains in the northeast. After 30 minutes they reached the old monastery and Cinder looked at the place. It was a total wreck of what it used to be, with the only remains of it being the skeleton of the structure. As soon as the Bounty stopped everyone came out onto the deck and looked down below./span/p

Down on the ground, Jay charges at Acronix as he avoids his attack before they spar a bit before Jay puts away his nunchucks and fires a lightning bolt at Acronix, who uses the Time Blade to block it before he soon disappears as Jay fires another one, but misses. Acronix soon reappears behind Jay and strikes him, knocking him forward and into some rubble.

Then he took off and back up to the monastery and landed on a roof silently and waited. He could smell burnt wood, telling the others were using their elemental powers to stop Acronix but failing. As he waited he felt a shockwave occurred and saw Acronix appear on the roof looking down at the ninja smugly but didn't see the dragonet who made his move. Using Dragon Time Cinder went towards the man and slammed into him and grabbed the blade from his hand. Then his forepaws began to glow a dark green with it going up his forelegs in a crack-like formation and punch the man, knocking him back and then ran back to his spot and resumed time around him. After that Acronix grabbed his stomach in pain and looked surprised as his hand was empty and then seeing the purple dragonet holding the Time Blade in his paws and face turned angry./span/p

What do you mean by that?" Wu inquired and the dragonet scratched the back of his head embarrassed. The dragonet, with Sparx's help, explained that apparently all Purple Dragons can control any element, including Time. But before this he has only a small portion of using it, particularly slowing time around him while he can move. But with touching the Time Blade he could feel the energy from it within, possibly allowing him to move forwards in time. Everyone was amazed by this and asked when this happened, which the dragonet told them. After that the others turned to Master Wu, but the elderly teacher had fallen asleep. Misako shuttled everyone out of his room. Cole turned to the others./span/p
