Ninjago The Next Generation

Chapter 3

Maya

Maya ran down the stairs and into the living room with all of her friends. The reason she was bratty was because she was worried Adrian would tell Kirby about her feelings for him. "Excuse me for a second." Maya said as she pulled Adrian aside.

"Promise you won't tell Kirby, or I will tell Jade." Adrian nods, terrified that Maya will tell. Everybody eventually has their pajamas on and are sitting down on the floor, sleeping bags set out in a line. "Let's do truth or dare!" Adrian said and everybody agreed.

"Okay, Reese. Truth or dare?" Reese thought for a few seconds before answering, "Truth." Adrian's eyes lit up and asked, "Who's your crush?"

Reese blushed furiously, "She's from school, you wouldn't know her. She's shy." everybody scooted closer to Reese. "Okay her name is Dianna."

"She's in my art class. She is pretty mysterious." Maya told Reese. "Maya, truth or dare?" Reese asked Maya. But Maya didn't hear him. She was too busy focusing on a noise, an alarm. "Shh, do you guys hear that?" she asked. Everybody was quiet to try and figure out where the sound was coming from.

"Oh, my phone is ringing." Jade said and took out her phone. "It's my dad."

Jade answers the phone and hears voices. She puts it on speakerphone. "Hey dad." she said. There was no response. "He must have his phone muted from work." she guessed. "Why did we all get together?" a voice came from the phone. It sounded like Jay.

"We have a virus going around in electronics. From what we've seen, Ninjago is in danger for the first time in years." All of the teens look at each other. "Turn it up!" Axel commands.

"We believe it is another version of the Overlord. Bigger, more dangerous. Everyone's worst nightmare. But we don't know who released him." A new voice spoke.

Nobody recognized the voice, but they could tell it was a woman.

"Garmadon. He disappeared. Never came back." , "Dad." Jade whispered.

"Or Pythor." Another voice butted in, "he hasn't been active in years! Not since the day of the departed." the voice seemed as if it belonged to Cole.

"Pythor has worked with the Overlord before, don't you remember?" Jay asked, "he is an obvious suspect." The group of teens remained silent as they eavesdropped some more.

"What if they are working together? Imagine, three of Ninjagos worst villains, right under our noses, working for years to try another attempt to take Ninjago." an angry or frustrated male voice spoke.

"Kai calm down, it's going to be fine, we have taken them all down before." a female voice spoke, which sounded like Nya's, "but the problem is, we haven't fought together in years."

"No, the problem is, why are we talking about the Overlord?" Jay asked,"he has been defeated like, three times! He should be gone now!"

"But the darkness cannot be destroyed." Lloyd said. Silence was followed for a little, "don't you get it? The Overlord can't be destroyed, no matter what we do. I defeated him once as the golden ninja, then Zane sacrificed himself the second time, then he was trapped in Zane's memory." Lloyd reminded them all, "He keeps coming back."

"But there has to be a way." Cole said, "what about the techno blades? Remember, they could wipe the Overlords system? What if we used those? Didn't they work last time?"

"We were too late last time." Zane spoke up, " but they could work." Jay sighed of relief, "Great! Where are they?"

"Location is hard to say." Zane mumbled, "we could check every possible whereabouts that we could have left them." he suggested. "But that was years ago." Kai groaned, "why is this so hard?"
