The Lego Ninjago Series

On a Wish and a Prayer

(The remaining ninja enter Cliff Gordon's estate.)

Jay: Ahem. Welcome to my humble abode.

Cole: Whoa.

Lloyd: (Simultaneously) Awesome.

Nya: (Simultaneously) Wow.

Lilly: (Simultaneously) Sweet.

Fritz Donnegan animatronic: Fear isn't a word where I come from.

Lloyd: So how did you come across this place again?

Jay: I saved up. Yeah, that's it. Uh, I saved up every little bit and now ta-da, here's my secret hideout. Haha. Of course it can be our secret hideout.

Fritz Donnegan animatronic: Fear isn't a word where I (Jay shakes it, disrupting the audio) come from.

Lloyd: First we lost Wu, then Misako. Now Kai. I don't know about you, but I'm starting to see a pattern.

Zane: Whenever one of us finds ourselves alone, we disappear.

Nya: Then we stick together from here on out. We need to take a look at that lantern. Jay, hit the lights.

Jay: Lights. Lights. Where would they be? Ah, found them! Ha-ah. Sorry, big house. (He presses the wrong buttons.) Oh, no. (He closes the windows.) Haha.

Nya: Wow. So this is supposed to point the way to the only thing that can stop Nadakhan?

Lloyd: Not stop, slow. Remember, a drop of venom from a Tiger Widow can kill a normal person and sick Ancient Dragons, but slow a Djinn down before he can disappear on us. If we need to trap him, we'll need this venom so let's figure out a plan.

Cole: (Whispering) You saved up for this place? Baloney. Whenever money comes your way, you waste it on junk food and video games. What's really up? And don't think you can lie to me. I know you too well.

Jay: (Whispering) Fine. I made a wish with Nadakhan.

Cole: (Whispering) You've seen Nadakhan and haven't told us?!

Jay: (Whispering) Shh. He came when I was alone. I wished to be rich and impress Nya, and instead I got a letter telling me I've inherited my dad's estate, only it turns out I'm adopted and my birth dad is Cliff Gordon.

Cole: (Whispering) Who?

Jay: (Whispering) The guy who played Fritz Donnegan.

Nya: So the Tiger Widow is on that island?

Zane: An island that doesn't exist according to my database.

Cole: (Whispering) How could you be so stupid to make a wish? You know everyone else who has faced him is now gone.

Jay: (Whispering) It's because back in the Spinjitzu Master's and Ancient Dragons Tomb, when everyone saw their future, and I told everyone I had an eye patch...

Cole: (Whispering) I remember.

Jay: (Whispering) Well, I saw something else. I saw the reflection of me and Nya together.

Cole: (Whispering) What?

Jay: (Whispering) I don't know how, but in the future, we end up with each other. Although she's made it painfully clear I never stand a chance. So when Nadakhan found me, I couldn't resist. But who am I kidding? Nothing I do would impress her. After two wasted wishes, I was barely able to escape without making my third.

Cole: (Whispering) You have to tell them.

Jay: (Whispering) I can't. Then Nya and Lilly will know. Please, I'm asking you as my best friend.
