Faded

2. Void

Nya woke up after what felt like an eternity. All the pain she had washed away. The room was different, she was noting the hospital, but she was somewhere else.

She looked at herself, she was wearing a robe a blue one. All her injuries were gone. Her vision started to clear when she saw a figure across the table.

She soon realised she was in the room with a vintage colour. And in front of her was a figure. Both he and her were sitting with a table in between.

She was wondering if she survived but it doesn't make sense, unless she was in a coma.

"Nya Smith. Age 18. Master of Water. Greetings." The figure bowed. The figure was wearing a straw hat with a delicate robe.

"Where am I?"

"A place between time and space. Or afterlife, if you speak."

Nya soon began to cry, she died. The wedding, Jay... The man he loved.

"Don't be afraid. You lived a good life. You are here because I want to give you a second chance."

"Second chance?"

"You left this world too soon. For a second chance in life, your memory will be locked and reborn as a new body."

"So that means, I will never be able to see Jay again... Or Kai..."

"Don't worry, you will be reborn anywhere in the timeline. I am placing you in a spot where you are born at the same time your friends were born. But you will be born as another."

"I have a question."

The figure nodded.

"How does any of these work? How would you decide who to give a second chance?"

"When I departed the world, leaving two of my sons behind, I saw many people suffer, children and infants. That is when I decided to give a second chance to anyone who did not get a chance in life. As for you, You did great things, but the world still needs you."

Nya thought about what the figure had said. Was he the creator. And about two sons...

"Are you the First Spinjitsu Master?"

The figure nodded.

Soon there were small sparks of anger in Nya. The anger that he did not anything. The anger that he let all the suffering happened.

"Why? Why couldn't you create a world where nobody suffered or do bad things in the first place?"

"That is the mistake I have made with the first Overseer. I am planning to replace him with a new one in the begnning of time."

"What did the first Overseer... Who are you talking about?"

"When I created the planet, I got someone to look over the world but soon he neglected everything and disobeyed my orders. But this new one, has a kind heart but a broken one. And hopefully with him, that hopefully get reduced."

"But can't you get rid of the suffering?"

"I am not all powerful or all knowing, Nya."

As Nya thought about this, she was amazed. All those villains, it made sense why Overseer was not there, he neglected his job, all this time, caused her death even.

Now she was confused, in her after life, when she is places in a timeline when her friends were born, will it be the new Overseer or the old one. And if it was new, will everything change?

It seemed as thought the Master heard her thoughts.

"The New Overseer will be task of not changing the timeline or any core events, he wont be allowed to intervene in anything big or life changing. As the big events in Ninjago as shaped every person to be. Any other question?"

How come she did not know of this? Was this the only thing he knew? Did he not tell his sons? But that is the question for another time.

"Thank you, Spinjitsu Master."

Soon Nya was feeling a breeze across her body. She looked down to see herself fading. She nodded at the Spinjitsu master as she closed her eyes and accepted it.
