Lloyd POV
"Splenda!" I run up to her and she embraces me into her arms. Tears threaten to slip out of my eyes as I break from the hug and look at her. She looks younger, not by much, but her eyes are more full of life and she has less wrinkles. "Is it really you?"
She chuckles. "Yes, Lloyd, it's me." I laugh, taking in her sight again. I'm overwhelmed with so much joy, I never want this moment to end.
But, like always, I remember something.
"Wait, but, you died." I say. She nods.
"Yes, I did. But, I'm more than alive here." She says happily.
I was afraid you'd say that... "But, if your here, and your here," I look at the First Spinjitzu Master. "Then, that means... I... died?" I ask them, fear suddenly flooding through me. Memories begin flooding back to me. I remember my friends, where I'm from, my boyfriend, the Overlord-
"But what about the Overlord?!" I ask them, panicked.
"Lloyd, it'll be okay." Splenda says, trying to calm me.
"You aren't dead, but you will be soon. You were just barely hanging on by a hair when I pulled you away from the clutches of death and brought you here." The Fist Spinjitzu Master says.
I sigh in partial relief. I'm not dead, which is good, but knowing I'm that close to never going back scares me. "You are on the very edge of life and death," he continues. "That's why your memories have just come back. My presence is keeping you in place temporarily."
"Well, I have to go back. I have to defeat the Overlord and save my father, save Ninjago!" I tell him.
He sighs. "I knew you would say that. I believe there may be a way," he says.
I look at him, urging him to continue. " I can try to activate the powers I have passed onto you." He says.
I stare at him. "What powers? And, what do you mean by activate?" I ask him.
"Well, every child born with an elemental power goes through a period of an elemental activation. It can happen at any time, when you are young, or when you are old. It all depends on the power and what it may take to activate it. An activation happens either naturally, like when you reach a certain age, or when you are in a stressful situation that requires you to protect either yourself or someone/something else, like when your power first revealed itself when you were fighting those shadow assassins a few months ago."
"Now, the difference between a normal activation and a forced activation," he continues. "Is that a forced activation does not occur naturally or in a stressful situation. A forced activation involves either you or someone else trying to force the element out, which can be very dangerous if done incorrectly. The power could surface too quickly and become unstable, putting both you and/or the other person at risk. It could even cause permanent physical or psychological damage to you, the host."
I take this all in. "So, you want to do that to me? A forced activation?"
He nods. "It does come with it's consequences. And with this specific element, you may loose your memories."
My eyes grow wide. I look at the ground, deep in thought. "And this is the only way?"
He nods. "Sadly, yes, this is all I can do."
I stay silent. "What is the element?" I finally ask.
"The element is very unique, and once it is activated, all your current elements will merge together in order to form it, and you will become the strongest elemental master in the whole realm since I. It will even be strong enough to defeat the Overlord."
