The Element Of Insanity (Lego Ninjago x OC)

The forgotten Element

"I still don't understand why you had to tie her up!" Lloyd stares down at an unconscious Lydia, tied up to a tree with a blindfold on. "I'll tell you later, but now isn't the time, we must focus!" 

"Chen knows I'm coming. But I can't just hide here and do nothing!"

Nya walks towards them. "We have to wait until nightfall. There's too many."

"And then what? Every minute we're out here, he grows more powerful and—"

"Son, Chen grows strong by taking from others. But real power does the opposite. It empowers those around you. Like the way you've empowered me. We will get you to Chen, and you will destroy his staff."

They spot three guards at the front. 

"Would you look at that? If a foot soldier like Eyezor can move up the chain of command, why can't we? I mean, the guy's only got one good eye, and we each got two. We could spot a ninja twice as fast as he could."

Eyezor sees a henchman sleeping on the job. "Hey!" They immediately awaken and get back to work.

"But he's got a mohawk. And his name, Eyezor. It's got a real ring to it. And it's practical. You know, with his creepy sore eye and all."

"That's it. That's it. We need names. We need something that'll make us, you know, stand out. I got it. Call me Kapau!"

"Oh, that's good. What should I be? Oh, I know. "Hey, who's that?" "It's Maleficium!"

"Malefici—that's a horrible name. I can hardly pronounce it."

"Then how about, uh...Chope?"

"Chope? Yeah, I'm not gonna judge. Wait a minute, yes I am. That is awesome!"

"Look out, world, Kapau and Chope moving up the ranks."

"Yeah!"

"No talking on duty, minions."

"Uh, it's actually Chope and Kap—"

"I said no talking!"

(Master Chen is showing Kai all of his artifacts and trophies.)

"Why are you showing me all this? You do realize if you weren't holding that staff right now, I'd strike you down right here."

"Skyler was right. Even without your power, the fire burns bright in you. Unlike you and my dear Skylor, who inherited her powers from her mother, was never born with natural abilities. Kai yawns. "I was told I would amount to nothing. But I will show them they are all wrong! Look!" He points to a painting. " I call it The Charge of the Dark Brigade. It's beautiful, isn't it? The reds, the purples, the super dark purples. After I defeat your little green friend and take his powers, I will have all the Elements I need to conjure a spell that will transform me and my worshippers into Anacondrai. With you and your friends gone, nothing will stop me. But I've seen inside your head. I know you're still jealous Lloyd was chosen to be the Green Ninja. It could've been you. Have you ever wondered what it felt like to have so much power pulsing through your veins? Yes you have. There is so much potential in you, Kai. I want to give you the chance to find it."

"I will never turn on my friends."

"Of course. But what if I also told you there were secrets about your parents that your Senseis never told you? Dark secrets."

"My parents? What secrets?"

"So many questions that can so easily be answered."

"Master, it is nightfall. The Green Ninja will be making his move shortly."
