          The sound of a bell ringing filled the air as you and the Ninja rushed towards the temple where the wedding was taking place. Pirates rushed your group midway, but they didn't have much success fighting you all off. Tossing a pirate off your shoulder and onto the ground, you huffed and began running towards the temple once more, slightly falling behind the group. You were beyond tired and irritated, and you definitely needed a shower, but you knew you could hold out a little longer. 

Once reaching the temple, Cole and Jay quickly tossed the pirates guarding the front door to the side, glancing over at you. Stepping froward, you phased through the door and quickly unlocked it from the inside, opening it up for the Ninja. Once inside, it was glaringly obvious that this was a closed ceremony, as pirates were armed at the closed ceremony door with canons at the ready.

Ducking down and hiding behind a pillar, you let out a cough and waved your hand in front of your nose, smoke filling the room at the fire of the canons. Peaking over, you watched as Jay jumped into the air and zapped one of the canon balls back towards the pirates shooting. "Ha, two pirates with one stone!" The boy boasted as he glared at the pirates underneath him, Cole scoffing and shouting at him to focus, sliding underneath a canon ball and approaching the other pirates. 

Kicking the top of the cannon up, the barrel slammed into the two pirates, you and Zane looking at each other before walking out from your pillar. "Y/n, you need to get through! Cause a distraction, do something, do anything just make sure the wedding doesn't finish." Jay grunted as he tried to shove the large doors open, Cole placing his hands on and trying to push it open as well.

Swallowing a lump in your throat, you nodded your head and walked through the door in front of you, ghosting out and rushing towards a corner. "And by the power vested in me..." Glancing around, you quickly saw a piece of debris lying in the corner of the hall, picking it up and aiming it at the serpentine up front. Holding your breath, you quickly tossed the rock towards the serpentine, letting out a laugh of victory when it slammed against his forehead.

A large blast from the door signaled that the other Ninja had made it into the room, you focused on rushing over to grab Nya. However, a laugh from Nadakhan was enough for you to pause in your step, fear crawling under your skin as you saw the Djinn let out a subtle glow. Calling out the girls name, Nya whipped her head around and nearly let out a cry of relief, rushing over to grab you.

You opened your arms for the girl to jump into, but she was stopped when Nadakhan reached down and grabbed a hold of her arm. "You're too late." The Djinn called out with a smile, Jay rushing over and trying to shout his wish over towards the creature. "I wish you wouldn't say that." Nadakhan sneered as he shot a blast over towards Jay, you watching as a piece of metal formed on the boys lips, sealing them shut. 

Turning over to you, the Djinn attempted to shoot a blast of energy your way, but you were already making a run for it. The man tisked before aiming another ball of energy towards the Ninja, you skidding to a stop as you managed to barely miss the shot. Hiding behind the debris with the Ninja, you had to forcefully grab Kai and drag him to your hiding spot, as he had tried to jump over and grab his sister.

You watched as the Djinn wished the girl into a deep sleep, your stomach churning as you fought with Kai behind the debris. "She's in a deep sleep, the only way to break the spell is by defeating him." Zane tried to explain, Jay letting out a round of muffled speech as you all stared at him blankly for a moment. "I think what Jay is trying to say is that we can do this. It's still five to one." Zane continued to speak, you pausing your small brawl with Kai as the debris you were hiding behind was slowly lifted up into the air.
