Darkness offspring

A rocky start

The ninja dash around in the Monastery, packing up for their quest.

Cole: Has anyone seen my sunscreen?

Kai: No.

Lloyd: Where's my sword?

Nya: Are you bringing sneakers or boots?

Zane: (Runs past her.) Sneakers.

Kai: (Passes her other side.) Boots. (Nya sighs.) (Kai and Lloyd almost crash into each other and spin around.) Whoa!

Lloyd: Ahh! (Sees Kai holding his Starfarer comic.) Uh, hey, is that my Starfarer comic?

Kai: You lent it to me, remember?

Lloyd: Like a year ago.

Kai: Ugh, take it. (Lloyd smiles and takes the comic.)

Zane: (Sees Cole with his guzzler hat.) You're not bringing that, are you?

Cole: My soda guzzler? You bet!

Zane: I thought we were supposed to pack essential items.

Cole: This is essential! How am I supposed to quest and stay hydrated at the same time, Zane? (Slurps from his hat.)

Chicken: (Clucks.)

Jay: (Takes his travel pillow from the Chicken.) Anyone have room for my travel pillow?

Ninja: No! (The Chicken sticks its head through the pillow, but Jay keeps it out.)

Acid: Jay, are you hanging around my lunch?!

Jay: uh, no!

Acid: good, I like to make it know that I will eat it one day. And nothing will stop me!

Lloyd: (Throws the luggage into the pile. Sighs.) That's the last of it!

Wu: (Comes up to them, with P.I.X.A.L. behind.) What is the meaning of this?

Lloyd: We're off on our quest, remember? To hone our ninja skills.

Wu: How long are you going for?

Jay: I dunno. Day or two?

Acid: five maybe.

Cole: Just like you always say: Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

Wu: I never said that.

Jay: (Sticks his head in Wu's face.) Ha! And you say we never listen!

Wu: I never said that either.

P.I.X.A.L.: Master Wu, perhaps this is an opportunity to field test the new joint tactical vehicles.

Kai: Oh! What new joint tac-wha?

P.I.X.A.L. opens the shoji doors to the living room. The ninja watch as she produces three throwing stars and throws them at a target. The target lifts up, revealing a button. P.I.X.A.L. presses it and the T.V. moves down to reveal a hidden door.

Nya: Wow!

P.I.X.A.L. scans her hand to start the elevator.

Lloyd: Did anyone know this was here?

Cole: No.

Acid: yes.

Kai: Ugh. Nobody tells me anything.

P.I.X.A.L.: We've been working on it for the past six months.

Jay: I didn't even notice any construction!

P.I.X.A.L.: (Stares at Jay disapprovingly.) You were playing video games.

Jay: Eh? (Memory is shown with P.I.X.A.L. working while Jay is playing video games.) Huh.
