Misty and The Secrets of Forbidden Spinjitzu (Ninjago)

Wasted True Potential

Kai, Cole, Lloyd, and Nya were crowded in the living room watching Cole play a video game. He was attempting to beat Zane's High score in the game. Cole was seated on the couch with Kai and Lloyd seated on either side of him. And Nya was hanging off the back of the couch. The living room was a mess filled with pizza boxes and soda bottles and cans. It looked like a hurricane had swept through the room. Cole was punching away at the buttons on his control while wearing a baseball cap that had a contraption on it, two bottles of soda attached to either side of the hat, and a straw that hung in front of his mouth on his right side.

"Get the guy on the left!" Lloyd shouted

Cole continued to press buttons frantically as waves of enemies appeared on the screen walking toward his avatar. Which appeared to be a dude with spiky blonde hair carrying a sword.

"Cole you're on fire!" Kai cheered while holding a soda bottle in his other hand. Cole then landed a blow on one last enemy and the screen congratulated him on his win. Nya cheered and shouted, "You did it!"

All four were cheering loudly and Cole gave Lloyd a high five. "That was awesome!" Kai shouted

Cole cheered and shouted, "Whoo-hoo! Lava Zombie King!"

The doors slid open and Jay gasped and said, "Aw, man. We missed it!" sounding disappointed Behind him was Zane who was smiling and said, "Congratulations, Cole that is quite an achievement!"

Cole turned around on the couch to face Zane and said, "Thanks, buddy No hard feelings?"

"Of course not." Zane with a smile

"Ah, good. Because my arm is pretty sore." Cole admitted and he rubbed his arms to help his sore muscles

"I'm sore just from watching!" Nya agreed

"Know what I'm thinking?" Kai asked

All of them jumped to their feet and shout together, "Hot Tub!"

The ninja was using the broken Bell of Divinity as a hot tub. By filling it with water and heating it. They were in their swimwear and were lounging in the bell relaxing.

"Kai, a little heat, please?" Nya said with a wink

"But of course," Kai agreed and he used his powers to cause steam to rise from the water. He was holding another bottle of soda. All of them sighed with relief and Cole took a slurp from the straw and drank from the soda bottles from his hat. And let out a sigh and said, "This is life,"

Kai stretched and said, "We, earned it, pal. Fighting all those bad guys, Saving Ninjago.

"Where's Misty?" Jay asked Lloyd.

Lloyd shrugged and said, "I'm not sure,"

"She told me that she was going to be in the courtyard if anyone needed her," Cole offered

"Courtyard what's she doing there?" Lloyd asked

"Training, haven't you noticed how nervous she's seemed lately," Cole said

"I've noticed she seems really down lately but I don't know why," Lloyd admitted.

Just then they heard a bang and all of them gasped and looked up to see, Sensei Wu and Misty standing beside him. Sensei looked disapproving and said, "I can't believe we're back to this." Meanwhile Misty just looked nervous, Misty had been practically paranoid ever since they defeat the Oni.

"What?" Lloyd asked

"After every big victory, you get lazy. Complacent. Careless." Wu said and he slammed the bottom of his staff against the ground.
