NINJAGO: The Yellow Ninja (Book 1 - The Way of the Ninja)

Welcome to the Monastery of Spinjitzu

Alisa has been following Wu as they both traveled far away from Shigurrè Village, through blistering winds, across scorching desserts, and over crumbling mountains. However, for some reason, Alisa had never expected that her training would start now by facing incoming obstacles they've encountered while traveling, but she followed Wu's orders without question as he stated it will teach her strength and endurance, wether it's push-ups with her suitcase on her back, carrying Wu on her shoulders while the old man drinks tea, or climbing up the high mountains. While Alisa has started training along her journey, Sensei Wu wasn't even bothered by the obstacles as he simply just walked through them or climb over them without an ounce of sweat or discomfort.

Finally, Alisa noticed that Wu came to a stop when they came out of the forest, then she stands beside him and follows his gaze until she looks surprised and amazed to see a huge mountain right in front of them and on the top is a building that Alisa could barely see it from afar.

"What...is this place?" Alisa asked, staring up at the mountain.

"This is the Mountain of Impossible Height." Sensei Wu answered, gesturing towards the very top where the building stood. "Up there is where you will train to become a ninja."

Alisa looks up at the top with shock and disbelief. "...Y-You mean...we have to climb all the way up there?" She asked with a gasp.

"Mm, perhaps." Wu simply replied. "But there is an easier way...take the stairs." He points his staff towards the bottom of the mountain, which has about a million steps of stairs carved out on the mountain leading up to the very top.

"...Oh." Alisa blinks at the steps, but she shook off the shock as she continues to follow Wu while climbing up the million steps.

While hiking up the Mountain of Impossible Height, Alisa couldn't help but gaze at the scenery around them as they go up the mountain higher. The sun shone steadily above the mountain over the horizon, dyeing the sky soft shades of orange, red, and pink, they bleed far and wide as stunning colors smeared across the canvas of the world. It makes a gorgeous contrast with the white of the snow-capped mountains. Alisa was very awed at the beautiful sight right before her very pearl-like eyes, it's like a vision ripped straight from a painting, or perhaps even a dream, one that would take her breath away completely. Alisa has lived her entire life somewhere by the mountains, but she would never imagine hiking up the Mountain of Impossible Heights is very enjoyable from above.

The higher Alisa and Wu scale the stone stairs, the thinner and colder the air grows. Then, they walked through a thick barrier of clouds until they were high above them in the sky.

By the time they came out of the clouds, Alisa gasped out in awe at the sight of the building built on the mountain's top. The building is a hexagonal shape with the main building built out of the three back walls, a tall white wall with red highlights and black shingle roofing protected the other three sides with a heavy red-wooded door carved out of the center, and outside the building was a grassy area with shrubbery and flowers at the front, and on the very left side at the edge of the mountain was a cherry blossom tree. It's the most grandest place she had ever seen.

Alisa beams a smile across her face as she gazes around the building with much awe. "This place is incredible."

Wu chuckles at the strawberry-blonde girl's amazement, "It most definitely is. This is where you will train." He tells her as he walks over to the two large wooden doors and pushes the doors open with his bamboo staff. "Welcome, Alisa, to the Monastery of Spinjitzu." Wu said with a warm smile as the doors slowly slide open, revealing a large courtyard with a brass dragon statue in the center.

As they entered the building, Alisa gazes curiously around the open space in the courtyard while she was in awe of the structure of this peaceful building. Who would've thought that a Monastery, a place of peace, would be a place for a ninja to train? It's such an amazing place. She would never thought she would live here, even to become a ninja.
