Apprentices

"What?!" "Now, now, what is life without a few challenges along the way?" "But Sensei!" "We already have Lloyd to train!" "This will be quite different then we're used to..."

 INTRO

As little as one month ago, Ninjago City was threatened by a giant serpent known as the Great Devourer. It ate everything in sight, and grew larger with every bite. There is four ninja who helped stop the Great Devourer. Kai, the Ninja of Fire. Jay, the Ninja of Lightning. Zane, the Ninja of Ice. And the leader, Cole, the Ninja of Earth. They used to protect the Four Golden Weapons; the Sword of Fire, the Nunchucks of Lightning, the Shurikens of Ice, and the Scythe of Quakes. The ninja had to give the Four Golden Weapons to Lord Garmadon (their worst enemy and ruler of the underworld). Garmadon was able to hold all the weapons because he has 4 arms. Once the 4 ninja were able to hold the Devourer still, Garmadon dived toward it's weak spot on his head and killed the Great Devourer, which then burst into green goo. All the people the serpent swallowed, including the ninja's Sensei (Sensei Wu), were alive once he was defeated. But Lord Garmadon and the Four Golden weapons were nowhere to be seen. The ninja's next challenge was to train Lloyd Garmadon; Garmadon's son and Sensei Wu's nephew. Lloyd is the destined green ninja, the one destined to defeat the Dark Lord. The ninja were already busy training Lloyd, but Sensei decided to give them even more students to train, as a challenge. This is where the story begins.

CHAPTER 1-ALISON P.O.V.

I ran quickly to my home in a dark alley. I wonder if the cops saw anything... Anyways, my name is Alison Quake. I have long blonde hair and I am a thief. It's not that I wanted to be a thief, but things happened and now I'm homeless and sleep in an alley. I sneak into people's apartments in Ninjago City to find stuff I can sell. I just stole some lady's purse which has $50 bucks cash in it! Jackpot! I've been planning to rob an apartment that's above my alley. The people who live there seem to go out quite a lot. So I figured now's my chance. I flipped up the hood of my black sweatshirt. I jumped onto a garbage can then jumped to a pole which was sticking out of the wall. I spun around then flipped into the apartment through the opened window. People need to learn to stop leaving their windows open. I looked around. Man, this place is a dump! There is a bunk bed, a rusty stove, a chair, a bathroom, and dirt. Lots and lots of dirt. Lying on the floor is a shuriken. Hey, this could come in handy. I put it in my bag when suddenly the door opened and lights turned on.

CHAPTER 2- NO P.O.V.

That apartment belonged to 4 ninjas, a samurai, a ninja-in-training, and a Sensei. Boy did she pick the wrong place to rob! "Thief!" the girl shouted. Alison quickly jumped out the window and ran off. The girl who shouted is a samurai, who is also Kai's sister. The ninja-in-training is Lloyd. Cole, the ninja in black, went over to the window. "What did she take?" he said. "It seems as if all she stole was a lone shuriken." Said Zane, who wears a white ninja suit. Cole closed the window with an angry expression on his face. "We really should keep that window closed." Jay said with a smile. Jay is the blue ninja. "Oh really?" Kai, the red ninja, said while mocking Jay. "Anyways Sensei, like we were saying before, we can't take any more students!" "Yeah! And making us train girls? This is kind of silly." Said Jay. "Why? Do you have a problem with girls?" Nya frowned. She is dating Jay. "Heh heh, o-of course not Nya!" Jay nervously smiled. "If you wish to become excellent teachers and Masters of Spinjitzu, you must conquer any given challenge; even those you believe are impossible to do so." Said Sensei Wu. All the ninja bowed. "Yes Sensei." "I will retrieve you all when I have returned with your students. For now you shall stay at Grand Sensei Dareth's Mojo Dojo." Said Sensei Wu. "Yes Sensei." Said all the ninja as they left.

CHAPTER 3- MADDIE P.O.V.

I am an excellent drummer, but for some reason I have never been able to join a band. Maybe I'm just too good for them. So I decided to try out for this band called "Poison Dagger". They don't really seem like 'my type of band' but hey, I'm desperate. I went to the garage where they practice to tryout. "Name please?" the lead singer said. "Maddie." I said nervously. "Ok, go ahead." I played more excellent then I have ever played in my life. When I hit the last beat, I was finished. "So...?" The band members gathered in a circle and discussed. They then dispersed. "Listen, you're a great drummer, really, but you're like, not Poison Dagger material." Said the guitarist. OK. NOW I'M ANGRY. I threw the drumsticks at the band members but they flew past them and got stuck in the wall. I then stormed out and headed towards the park. I sat down on the bench when suddenly I heard a voice. "Excellent accuracy, but had your anger blinded you?" "Huh?" I looked to my right and saw an old man. "I don't suppose you're looking for a drummer?" I asked. Of course he's not he's like 107 years old! The old man laughed. "I'm afraid not. What I'm looking for is an apprentice." "An apprentice? For what?" I asked. "For Spinjitzu." He said with a smile. "Spinjitzu? Do you mean, like, ninja? Wait I recognize you! You're the one who trained the ninja who saved Ninjago!" I said. It's like talking with a legend. He laughed again. It started to get annoying. "Yes, that is me. I have come looking for a ninja." He said. "A ninja?! You mean me?!" I really hope it was me. If not I made a fool of myself. "Yes, Miss Frost." He smiled and poked my head with his staff. Oh, my, gosh. Yes! I'm going to be a ninja! Wait how'd he know my name? Oh, who cares! "Now come. I have 3 more students to gather."
