Lies Of The Serpent: A Ninjago AU

Chapter 29: The Dream

Zane's POV

The falcon flew across my vision until deciding to land on a phone line. Slowly my vision got closer and closer to the falcon until I was in it's face.

"Wake up, Zane. I know where you come from," the falcon said.

I woke up, gasped, and hit my head on the top of my bed. I walked off the bed, rubbing my head. I saw the falcon flying in the sky. I walked into the bridge where sensei Wu and Nya were.

"The hunt starts early today," I said.

"A watchful eye never sleeps" sensei Wu said.

"As long as Lloyd and the serpentine roam freely no one in Ninjago is safe," Nya said.

"And Hebi. She is also a threat," I said. She was a hypnobrai therefore she could control anyone of us at any moment. I did not want to have to fight one of my comrades again.

"Who?" Nya asked. I sighed. It seemed no one knew about her although she was always with Lloyd and kept trying to make herself known.

"The female hypnobrai that is always with Lloyd. May you please inform me where the others are?" I asked.

"Training on the upper deck," sensei Wu said.

I walked to the upper deck but did not see anyone there.

I noticed the falcon and said, "You were in my dream, little friend. Last time I saw you you led me to good fortune. What reason have you returned?" I thought about mentioning the fact that it spoke again but decided against it. My friends might hear, and I did not want them thinking I was delusional. They already saw me as a freak.

Then again I was talking to a bird, so maybe they already saw me as delusional.

I watched as it flew away.

I heard lord Garmadon's loud menacing breathing.

"Lord Garmadon. But you were banished!" I said as I turned toward him.

"Only to return for the weapons of spinjitzu," lord Garmadon said as he pulled out two katanas, "Soon I will have the power to recreate Ninjago in my own image." He attacked me, but I jumped before he could hit me. I quickly pulled out my shurikens.

"Give me your shurikens of ice!" he said.

"You'll have to take them from me. Ninja go!" I did spinjitzu toward him, but he quickly grabbed me and threw me into some junk. I sighed. We'd just cleaned and it was already messy again.

"So be it." A box fell which would crush me. A ninja in a green gi grabbed it before it could crush me.

I knew exactly who they were.

"The green ninja. The legend is true," I said in awe. Soon the green ninja and lord Garmadon fought.

The green ninja's moves were more skilled than I'd ever seen.

They pulled out Jay's nunchucks and knocked lord Garmadon off the ship.

I stared at them. They had a fire in their eyes that reminded me of Kai. Their hands were also on fire. And he was holding the falcon.

"Who are you? Kai, is that you?" I asked. It seemed logical since Kai's weapon could control fire.

Falcons flew around us.

"What is the meaning of this? Who are you, green ninja?" I asked. He merely stood there, staring at me, mocking me.

Then I woke up, gasped, and hit my head on the top of my bed.
