Brother of Wind {Book 7: Hands of Time}

chapter 9

At Mega Monster Amusement Park, the rised were moving fast. No one could get off as the Vermillion ripped peice of metal of the rollercoaster.

"What are those things?"
"What do they want?"
"NOT THE MASCOTS!!"

"Ah, I just love the smell of screams in the evening." Raggmunk exclaimed.

"Mega Monster Amusement Park? Really? Don't these guys have any sense of decency? Where does it end?" Cole asked, puching up his window.
"It ends here and now." Lloyd said.
"Pixal, give me a danger analysis. Pixal? Pixal, respond. I need a danger analysis." Zame said with no response.

"Analysis or not, I'm going in." Morro flipped his hood on an entered the fray.
"The roller coaster!" Nya gasped. A part of the track was completely gone. The carts didn't come to a stop. Man, who operates this thing?
"Zane, Cole, get up there fast!" Lloyd shouted.
"Right."
"Got it." Zane and Cole used airjitzu to fly up.

"The rest of you, on mine and Morro's trail. Time to make this place a snake-free zone. We can do this, team!" Lloyd instructed.

Zane and Cole reached the rollercoaster. Zane created a safe path of ice to get the passengers to the ground
"You don't have a ticket, and you don't have a ticket, and you, and you." Cole said as he ran along the track, kicking snakes off.

"Which one of you slime balls stole my Samurai X suit? Was it you? Or you? Or you?" Nta demanded to know, kicking a snake off the ferris wheel every ask.
"We're gonna go 'round and 'round and 'round until I get some answers!" Nya shouted.

'I'm starting to think we don't all have the same motive.'
Morro flipped and avoided metal being thrown at him.
'Yeah, me too.'
Lloyd glanced at Nya kicking snakes off the hights.

Kai entered the haunted house and kicked off the snakes, getring applause from the riders. A prop scare jumped out and Kai cut it down.
"Fake ghost, hehe. I knew that." He lied.

"So lame."
"Not cool."

"Woah!" Kai got jumped and hit apart a Vermillion. The helmet landed in Kai's hands.
"Huh? That symbol. It's..." He began to remember. The Vermillion stole it back and put the helmet on backwards. Oof.

"A-Squadron, hold off the ninja. The rest of you, keep bringing the metal. We must multitask." Raggmunk commanded his warriors.

The Vermillion cornered a boy by a metal cart.
"Mind if I borrow these?" Llpyd grabbed two cotton candies to puch back a few snakes.
"What's your name?" He asked the boy.

"I'm Johnny."

Lloyd jumped onto a Vermillion and kicked it back, flipping to his feet.
"Nice to meet you, Johnny." Lloyd smiled.
"You too, Lloyd." Johnny said.

"Ninja-go!" Lloyd used Spinjitzy to push back a crowd of Vermillion.
"Ninja, sound off! Is everyone okay?" Lloyd activated his comm.

"So far, barely!" Nya exclaimed.

"If you mean 'Okay, there sure are a lot of them!' then, yeah, I'm okay." Cole said.

"For the record, this is the least amusing amusement park I've ever been to." Kai said. The previous Ninja regroupped.

'Yes.'
Morro stood in the carousel, using the poles and sides to dodge the Vermillion's attacks.

"Morro? MORRO?!" Everyone that wasn't Lloyd asked.

"Yes?....oh." Morro said a loud.

"These snakes are behaving curiously." Zane said, joining up.
"You think? 'Cause boosting scrap metal doesn't seem like, you know, normal snake behavior." Kai said. They jumped onto higher ground. Morro came to the group.
"Neither does reforming into unstoppable samurai things." Cole said.
"They're not trying to defeat us, they're trying to fend us off." Morro said.
