I will let you guys pick (Name)'s actual name. And won't update another chapter till I get names to pick from. That is, if you want her to be named in the book. If not, I'll keep writing (Name). Just let me know in the comment section.
Nya takes the covers off of a skeleton.
"Some villagers unearthed the remains of this Fangpyre a few miles away. It predates the Golden Age, and must be hundreds of years old. Although the venom in the fangs of the Fangpyre genetically mutate human cells into reptilian, I've learned there could be a way to stop the effects without having to create an antivenom."
Zane is taking notes while Kai is bored. Cole is drawing a picture of him fighting, Shade was texting his girlfriend about how much fun he had at her party last night while Jay, sporting a new hairstyle, stares at Nya with an infatuated expression on his face.
"If one is able to wildly raise their heart rate, hypothetically it could reverse the venom's effects."
Nya's cheeks turn pink.
"Resulting in...diminished, uh, excuse me, is someone wearing perfume? I'm severely allergic to perfume." "Heh. You told me it was men's cologne."
Jay whispered to Kai.
"Meh, I get them mixed up."
Everyone but Jay and Nya laughs. Zane turns his humor switch off.
"I told you not to listen to him, but you did."
Shade said not looking away from his phone.
"Oh hush, you don't even know what it's like to try and get the girl of your dreams." "I know what that's like. I got her by being myself."
Shade whispered the last sentence to himself and Kai. Kai chuckled at that.
"Ah, looks like class is over. Time to start stomping some Serpentine before they find any Fangblades." "Sounds like a plan." "I'm excited to join." "Let's do this thing."
Mom, wherever you are... please be safe.
Kai, Cole, Zane and Shade leave the room.
"Uh, hey uh, Nya, I'm sorry. The reason I was—you know—I went to Kai because—look. What I'm trying to say is—" "I know. It's just a cruel joke. I should be fine. Please, go fight snakes." "No, no, no, no. I was trying to impress you. Before Sensei left, he said our heart was the key to unlocking our True Potential." "Impress me? But I look so..." "Fantastic."
Nya begins playing with her hair.
"Look, maybe, if you'll let me, I can take you to some big fancy restaurant. You don't have to, if you don't want to..."
Shade poked his phone in the room and snapped a picture before returning to the group.
"You mean like a date?" "Um, yeah?" "Sure! I'd love to. But I have to go now before the perfume toxins enter my bloodstream and I go into shock. See you tonight."
Nya leaves the room.
"Yes! In your face Shade!"
Jay laughs, and accidentally pricks himself on the skeleton.
"Ow! Aah! Man."
He leaves unaware of a trickle of venom dripping from the skeleton.

On the Mountain of Madness, Wu confronts Garmadon.
"Hello, brother. What took you so long? You brought the katana from our youth. Funny, you never had the courage to cross the temple wall, yet now you have the courage to come here." "Why have you come to this place of darkness?" "A place as wicked as me? Don't you see? Here I feel at home. In Ninjago, I was physically unable to hold all four Spinjitzu Weapons. But here, dark magic has made me stronger and what was once impossible is now possible."
