Ninjago: Gold and black

Recruitment

A small boat skimmed the icy waves of a cold ocean. The ninja, who sat inside were all trying not to strangle Jay, who never once shut his mouth.

"I spy something, white!" He says, snapping his fingers once he found the 'perfect' thing.

"Could you be quiet for once? This ain't easy," Cole reprimands, staring to keep the wheel in place and the boat on course.

A rock comes into view as the fog swirls around it. Cole grunts as he tries to move the wheel yet nothing happens and the side of the boat skims the jagged stone.

"I spy something broken," Jay groans, having fallen to the ground.

"My sanity?" Erin asks him, glaring through the mist.

Kai's brows furrow and he looks out into the gloom. "If Sensei knows the way to the next Golden Weapon, then why isn't he steering the ship? We've been drifting aimlessly for miles."

"Drifting?" Cole asks, grunting as he tried to keep the boat steady once more.

"Sensei's wisdom is beyond my own." Zane says, watching as their master goes through numerous different moves.

"The most powerful move in spinjitzu can only be accomplished when all four elements are combined. Earth! Ice! Fire! Lightning!" With each element he did a different move.

"Um, there are five of us, if you haven't noticed." Jay butted in, once again opening his trap.

Everyone continues to tune Jay out, except for Erin, who stares at him as if he had just punched her.

"What happens when their all combined?" Zane asks, curiously.

"The tornado of creation. The power to create something out of nothing." Wu says, stroking his beard mysteriously.

"Last I knew, tornado's were pretty destructive, not artists." Jay squawks.

Kai goes through a few moves similar to what Wu had done, but still nowhere near correct.

"No, Kai!" Wu exclaimed, for once leaving his mysterious old man persona behind. "If done incorrectly, it will lead to disastrous consequences.

"Disastrous consequences, right."

Everyone yells out in surprise as the boat crashes into the icy shore. Jay falls over the boat railing he was leaning on and onto the ice covered terrain.

"Uh, wasn't me." Cole says, putting his hands up.

"Did I do that?" Kai asks, his eyes panicky.

"No, we are here," Wu nods.

Erin jumps over the side of the boat and grips the handle of her large ax, her eyes scanning the area. "I don't like it." She mutters more to herself than anyone else.

"Don't like the cold?" Kai snarks, landing beside her.

"It's not that." She says, completely oblivious to his sarcasm. "There's just something about this place-"

"Cold!" Jay yelps, jumping out of the snow bank he had landed in.

The five ninja and their old master wander throughout the land for a little while until they reach a very tall hill. Skeletons frozen in blocks of ice scattered along the sides of the hills watched them go, their empty eye sockets seemingly following their every move.

Erin gripped her ax tighter.

They step into a cave and directly in front of them sat the shurikens on a pedestal much like the scythe's, except this one was made of ice.
