Relations between parents and their kids have improved. However, the eagerly awaited date of September 1 has arrived. The first day of school. Ingrid, Eshter, Ernest and Flame with Jake liked the idea of their parents and were looking forward to starting school at the public academy.


Lily, Rose, Atlas and Ophelia didn't really like this idea. They liked studying at home.  And there they will have to deal with people from completely different backgrounds. They are not sure what to expect from other students. 


Zane was more than happy with the idea of their friends. After all, their children could grow up and be educated among their peers. So it was he who volunteered to take them to Moonshine Academy; an academy founded by a famous billionaire in the 1980s, Reginald Moonshine Jr.


He was famous for founding the first non-public academy, The Moonshine Academy, where he reportedly raised seven students who were his children. They graduated from their gifted father and left to live their lives in different parts of the world. After that, he decided to make his academy public for other gifted young people.

- We are going to die. - Ophelia said, looking at the building built of red brick. The young Serpentine did not like studying there.


- Don't exaggerate. It will be great! - Jake said with a broad smile, hitting his sister with his fist on the shoulder.


- We have time to turn back, then we turn back now. - Atlas said.


Zane stood in front the group of kids and sent them a disapproving look.


- Uncle, don't make us go there, I beg you! - Atlas groaned, weaving his hands together. Zane only sighed and put his hand on his shoulder.


- There is nothing to fear, Atlas. Growing up and learning alongside your peers is fun! This is how we learn the most about ourselves.


- Yeah. Or this school is a full pasture of assholes and fools who will denigrate us in front of others.... Hooray! - Rose said.


Zane clear his throat unpleasantly and looked nervously at terrified Atlas. - Don't listen to what she tells you. This school has the best reviews in all of Ninjago and has high scores. The students are great, it will be fine.


Atlas sighed nervously before sending Zane a slight smile. - You're right. I hope it will be okay.


- That's the spirit, Atlas! Good luck to and have fun. - Ingrid's father said with a smile as the bell rang.


Ophelia, Rose, Lily and Atlas groaned but followed Ernest, Eshter, Flame and Jake anyway. They passed through the massive doors and a corridor full of students dressed in uniforms appeared to them.


- Beautiful! We'll be walking around in uniforms! - Ernest said and sighed heavily.


- We can always hang anyway! - Rose said sarcastically to him. 


Jake grabbed her by the shoulders and began to shake her wildly. - Calm down, Rosalina! Don't sow panic!
