Ninjago: Tourament of Elements [Shuffled Ships]

Only One Can Remain

I thought this book out carefully, and I'm itching to write this soo yup, might be whole book written done by end of next week. In Possession then I'm gonna give Lloyd more trauma than necessary.

Chen's ferry arrives at an island. "Look at that." Cole says.

"Awesome." Kai says.

"Let me see." Karlof says and pushes Kai.

"Do you mind?" Kai asks annoyed.

"Welcome to Chen's Island. The Tournament of Elements welcomes its brave fighters. Master Chen will be pleased you've returned, Sensei Garmadon." Clouse says.

"The pleasure is all mine, Clouse." Garmadon says with a grunt.

"I'm sure it is." Clouse says.

"Definitely feeling some tension between you two." Jay whistles.

"Yeah, and how is it we're on an island I've never seen on any map?" Kai asks.

"And care to explain how the face to Ninjago's most popular noodle house is secretly assembling an underground fighting tournament?!" Cole exclaims.

"Master Chen used to be a friend. Now he's a traitor. During the Serpentine Wars, Chen turned against his own kind and sided with the treacherous snakes." Garmadon says.

"The battle you and Uncle Wu fought together in? He was an enemy?" Lloyd asks.

"He used deception to divide the Elemental Masters. We barely defeated the Serpentine, and in a deal for his surrender, Chen was to never leave this island. Little did we know, he'd begin to build his criminal empire from here." Garmadon says.

"He may have divided our ancestors, but he's not gonna-" Lloyd starts.

Kai sees Skylor walking behind him. "Uh...ladies first!" He pushes the ninja aside.

"divide us...." Lloyd finishes watching Skylor go before roughly pushes Kai aside and goes inside.

"Hey! What's up with you now?" Kai asks rushing after Lloyd. Garmadon sighs shaking his head.

"Think about if yourself." Lloyd says before quickens his pace.

"Come on greenie, I can't read minds." Kai mutters but Lloyd is already gone.

"Oh, I need tons of popcorn." Jay says.

"Jay." Cole says.

"Well come on, this is once a lifetime show!" Jay says.

Cole ahakes his head before glances around. "This is a big island. Zane could be anywhere. Keep an eye out."

"So this is the house that noodles built. Ha! Always wanted to go to a Red Carpet event." Jay says.

"Chen lives like a king. Here, he's totally self-sufficient. The only way on or off this island is with his permission, which you have to earn." Garmadon says.

Suddenly out of nowhere Lloyd is behind them. "You never told me about this place. How do you know so much about this island?"

Startled Jay jumps towards and hclings onto Cole. "What!? Weren't you just in front of us?!?" He exclaims while Cole pushes him away annoyed.

"Because before Chen was my enemy, he was my Sensei." Garmadon says and shows them his Anacondrai tattoo.

The Elemental Masters arrive inside the palace and sat in a circle. "You never told me you had a Sensei." Lloyd says.

"When I was your age, I sought a darker means of guidance. He taught me to win at all cost, no matter who I hurt. It wasn't until you saved me that I saw the light." Garmadon says.
