Misty and The Secrets of Forbidden Spinjitzu (Ninjago)

Another Snake

 "Grab onto something!" Lloyd shouted

"I'm trying!" Kai screamed

"There's nothing to grab it's too smooth!" Jay shrieked

"Guys! Guys! Guys!" Cole shouted

Misty saw what he was so panicked about ahead of them was very sharp-looking spikes and they were about to slide straight into them. All of the ninjas screamed and Kai gritted his teeth and said, "I got this!" And he shot a fireball into the spikes and the Ninja flew into smoke all screaming.

Once Misty recovered she sat up and rubbed the side of her head, "That was certainly a better landing than the alternative," She muttered

Cole, gently let go of her hand, and he glared at Jay and scowled, "He said to step over them!"

"I did!" Jay shouted back only to then noticed the spider web still stuck to his foot. And he had a sheepish look on his face. Cole meanwhile looked unimpressed and said, "If you did, we wouldn't be lying here in a pit with--" He noticed all of the ninjas were staring at him fearfully and Misty even scooted back she even reached out and tried to tug him toward her while staring at something behind him.

"What? What are you staring at?" Cole asked and Jay pointed behind Cole. Cole turned to look and screamed and threw himself backward crashing into Misty. Behind him was the skeleton of an explorer that had been obviously impaled on one of the spikes.

"I wonder who that was?" Zane said

"Someone who didn't stop in time," Kai said

Cole got off of Misty and helped her to her feet, and the other ninja also clambered to their feet.

Powers walked over to the skeleton to inspect it, and Jay followed him. He turned around and pointed to Powers looking shocked. But no one noticed and Powers turned around and said, "Hmm. Hageman, a competitor. He was good very good. But he didn't read my book, and it cost him his life."

"Actually, he did read it," Zane said as he picked up the book from the bag laying near the departed Hageman.

"let me see that!" Powers said and he snatched the book from Zane. He flipped through the book until he got to the part that was booked marked and he showed the ninja the page and said, "He stopped on Chapter 8, cobweb traps are in Chapter 9." He then tossed the book behind him and it hit the skeleton causing it to crumble and fall off the spike. Behind it was a dark tunnel. They followed Powers into the tunnel and into a room with golden sarcophaguses that lined the wall.

"Will ya look at that?" Kai marveled.

"Nobody touch nothin." Clutch said and the team moved on until they came to a pillar that blocked their path. "Gumdrops," Clutch said

"Cole?" Lloyd said with a smirk.

"I got this," Cole said with a grin and he activated his lava arms and lifted the pillar. The ninja peered at their cleared path but didn't move forward. "Any day now!" Cole grunted. The ninja hurried through. Cole threw the rock up and then followed. Once he was on the other side, Misty smiled and gently patted him on his cheek. Even in the dim lighting, she could tell Cole was blushing. She then turned and continued walking with the others. They entered a room with a wall that looked to be a mural. But the picture was jumbled up like a puzzle.

"What is this?" Lloyd asked

"It appears to be an ancient locking mechanism. If the image is properly assembled the chamber will open." Zane said

"Ooh, like a puzzel game!" Jay exclaimed and he rushed forward and shouted, "I'm good at these!" Nya followed him with a smile. And the two began to work on the puzzle.
