IRIS WAS STILL RECOVERING FROM HER LITTLE FIGHT WITH PYTHOR WHICH, JUST AS ZANE SUGGESTED, LEFT HER WITH BRUISED RIBS. How she wanted to punch the snake in his scaly mouth even more now. Her Father was absolutely stricken with worry once the girl returned, clutching her side with agony. But after putting her on a strict schedule for healing tea, he knew she would be as right as rain in no time. It still didn't mean he wasn't worried, because he was. For her, his ninja and for Lloyd. And to add to everything, Nya told her that her Father and Kai had discovered the girl's secret. Sensei Wu knew Nya was the Samurai.

Basically, a lot was happening on the Bounty at the moment.

And that happened to include Zane seeing how long he could hold his breath underwater. 

Iris sat carefully on the edge of the bounty, her feet dangling over the edge. Her hand grazed her bandaged side beneath her yellow suit and she sighed as her eyes trained on the water's surface. The boys beside her were watching the clock, but she didn't have to to know it had been a very long time. Impossibly long. 

"Ten minutes!" Announced Kai in disbelief. "He just broke his own record. The guy's inhuman." Not that, that shouldn't be possible. Zane shouldn't be possible, but he was. Wow.

A moment later, Zane's mop of white hair pierced the surface and he smiled joyfully at his friends. Iris chuckled contently at the scene as the boys cheered enthusiastically behind her. "Amazing!"

"We're not worthy." Jay proclaimed as he bowed down before Zane, the master of holding his breath. The sight of the lightning ninja, palms down on the deck, it made Iris chuckle even more.

Sweet Zane then asked innocently. "I broke the record?"

"You destroyed it!"

Turning to Iris, the ice ninja's smile brightened at the happy look on her face. She reached over and offered the ninja her hand and he quickly swam over to the hull of their ship. Despite her injury, Iris was still able to do a lot and that included helping a friend up onto the deck. He was absolutely soaked through. At least his ninja suit wouldn't need a wash later. "Thank you." He nodded appreciatively.
