"Your new body is a fighting instrument. Listen to it." Wu speaks up, staring at his nephew, who was in the middle of the circle we made by surrounding him, his eyes closed shut.
Cole swings his scythe and Lloyd easily dodges it by kicking him. Grabbing Jay's nunchucks, he flings him over to the other side of the room. Zane throws his nunchucks at Lloyd, who jumps — avoiding the launched stars, which strike themselves in the watermelon that was in Nya's hands.
She gasps and glares at the nindroid. "Since he's grown, he's learning faster, Sensei."
"But will it be enough to challenge Lord Garmadon?" The sage man quizzes, turning his head to Nya. "Only time will tell."
I take a few steps forward, jumping in the air and ready to throw a kick at him. He uses his hands to block my foot before swinging me to the other side. I fall down on my back, letting out a groan. I slightly sit up, seeing Kai take out a katana.
Kai waves his weapon at the blonde, who grabs the blade with his hands. He concentrates, trying to summon a green energy ball. The hothead moves the sword back towards himself, making Lloyd fall.
The brunette chuckles, helping the blondie get back up. "You're getting pretty good, but that move you fell for was basic one-on-one."
"Yeah, if I had focused more when I was little, I would've seen that coming." Lloyd admits.
A hand appears in my vision, one that is getting quite familiar. I grab it and Cole helps me stand back up. I give him a grin before thanking him. He smiles back at me, giving my hand a small squeeze.
"We cannot change the past, but we can improve for the future." Wu says in his typical wise tone. "Again. And this time, do not hold back."
I turn my head, seeing Jay's gaze flickering from me to the ravenette that is still holding my hand. He stares back at me, his brows furrowing in incertitude. I remove my hand from Coles, feeling my cheeks and ears warm up.

Zane and I wait for his feathered friend out on deck. We both have familiar caws and smiles when he sees the falcon flying towards him. He holds up his arm, allowing the bird to land. The mechanical bird squawks at him, causing his eyes to widen and he rushes into the bridge as I follow right behind. He calls for the others from the bridge and waits for them to arrive.
In no time, they all arrive and gather around the computer. Zane takes a drive out of the Falcon and plugs it into the computer. "The Falcon has returned with troubling news. What did you see, my mechanical-feathered friend?"
