|~Ninjago's Destiny~|

|~The Last Hope~| Ch. 26

(The ninja except Destiny are"practicing" their new powers on the shore of the Island.)

Kai: Order up. Coconut cream pie. Served well done! (He uses his Fire on a coconut projectile. Everyone laughs.)

Destiny: I can do much better. (she blasts the coconut using her Darkness)

Kai: If you mean by destroying it, sure! (she throws a coconut at him) Ow!

Destiny: Dork.

Zane: It is good to have our powers back.

Jay: Yup, you're right. And since we've all been working on our witty quips to follow every cool thing we do, I'd say we got this final battle in the bag. Or should I say...(He signals Cole to launch another coconut.)...I'd be shocked if we lose! (He uses his Lightning on the coconut, exploding)

Wu: Enough! Are you trying to reveal our hidden location?

Kai: Uh, sorry, Sensei. We were just practicing our cool new Elemental Blades.

Jay: And our witty quips.

Destiny: That's not needed for going into battle. Trust me, it really isn't.

Wu: Destiny is correct. Be wary of overconfidence, ninja. While it is true your powers can defeat the Stone Army, only Lloyd alone has the power to defeat Garmadon. When it is all over, then we will see who laughs last.

Ninja: Yes, Sensei.

(In the distance, Dr. Julien is repairing the Falcon while Lloyd watches.)

Julien: Every cog, every gear is important. If one piece is missing, or out of place, the invention won't work. (He closes the Falcon's panel.) Come now, little one. Time to fly. (The Falcon flies to the ninja.)

Wu: It is like you ninja. You each serve very important roles, and are key parts to a magnificent fighting force.

Cole: (Spotting a "coconut") Eat dirt, scumbag! (He projected his Earth.)

Destiny: Since when do coconuts fly? 

Zane: (Counters it with his Ice) That is not a coconut!

Cole: Oops. Nice reflexes. (The Falcon squawks and lands on Zane's arm.)

Zane: Good to have you back, old friend.

Lloyd: If we're all gears, what if I'm the gear that doesn't work? What if I don't do my part? What if I can't defeat my father?

Destiny: What if you're so much more than you know? 

Wu: The Final Battle is almost upon us. When that time comes, we will know the answer to "what ifs" whether we like it or not.

Nya: I know you don't want to face your father Lloyd, but there is no other choice.

Destiny: But what if there was?

Nya: Again with the "what ifs?"

Destiny: No, I'm being serious. Misako, tell 'em.

Misako: I used to think it was inevitable, but then we found this. (She shows them a scroll.)

Destiny: I didn't believe it when I saw it either. Mainly because I didn't think it would work.

Cole: So, you mean Lloyd doesn't have to fight? This I gotta hear.

Misako: The scrolls say that when the Helmet of Darkness is bequeathed to its rightful ruler, the Celestial Clock will count down to the activation of an unspeakable weapon. The first sign that the Final Battle between good and evil has begun.
