No offense to Kai, but I didn't wanna see him fight. I knew he was gonna win, how he did win I don't care. So I wished Kai good luck and took off towards my room to shower. I have no sweat on me but still it gives me an excuse and something to do. 

I'm just getting out of the shower in my towel when I hear my balcony door being opened and someone calling my name. Lloyd calling my name to be exact. 

"LEE! LEE! LEE!" Lloyd calls panicked. 

"Give me a minute! I need clothes on!" I yell back and quick to spinjitzu to get dressed.

I exit my bathroom and Lloyd instantly hugs me.

"What's wrong? Did Kai lose? I'll beat Chen's ass if you want?"  

"No Kai won like 3 hours ago and Chen did something worse. He changed the bracket to say Cole and Jay would have to fight each other." 

"What?! He can't do that!" 

"He did though and the ninja are freaking out."

"Those 3 are always freaking out about something, or making fun of each other......I have a plan."  I say calmly. 

"That's my job. I make plans."

"You're the one who just rushed in here panicked. Do you seriously have a plan?" 

"No... Fine what you got?" 

"Have Neuro, master of the mind, look into Chen's mind to figure out what he's up to. Take that knowledge and use it to find Zane, while doing so kick Chen's fucking ass." 

"Okay... Good plan." 

"Thanks. Also I've been in here for 3 hours?!" 

"Yeah."

"Dang... Did I skip lunch?"

We walk outside into the dark and cold night, crickets chirping, and I feel at peace with my element. I block out everything and stare into the obelisk. Well until I hear the Jay's big mouths.

"That's really impressive, Nerdo."

"It's Neuro, Master of the Mind. And Cole thinks Jay won't last long in a fight."

"Pfft. You think that?" Jay asks. 

"You just said it yourself." Cole replies. 

"But You didn't have to believe it."

"Don't be offended, Cole. Jay here thinks you're the least valuable ninja."  Neuro says making more trouble.

"You don't say!" The 2 ninja start fighting.

"We wanted you to help, Neuro, not make things worse."Lloyd cuts in. 

"But why would I help? You're competition. The sooner you're out, the better for me."

"If you want what's best for you, just look into my head and you'll see what this tournament is all about." Lloyd says. 

"Or look in mine and see how I'm planning on destroying you."  I say walking up to stand next to Lloyd. 

"You." Neuro says a little panicked but tries not to show it. 

"Me." I reply confidently. 

"You could kill us all."

"Yeah I could. You would be first on the list if you don't help."
