A/N: So after watching the Sonic Movie 3, I've decided to change some things from Y/N's past. Sorry for the retcons that will happen later as a heads up.

Also as a side note, this is the longest chapter yet.

The chapter begins in Jamanakai Village, where some kids are playing soccer.

RED SHIRT KID: "Come on. You're in. Ha, you can't catch me."

He ends up piled on by two kids.

GREEN SWEATSHIRT KID: "Oh. Here I go."

Kicks ball over the other kids.

RED SHIRT KID "Whoa."

BLUE SHIRT KID: "Oh, yeah. Good one!"

The kid at the wall tries to grab the ball, but falls back as the ball hits the wall. Some of the kids cheer, while others look on in defeat.

The Destiny's Bounty, repainted to its original state, flies by. On deck, Lloyd looks at the kid below and sighs.

KAI: "Lloyd? Lloyd! Concentrate!"

Lloyd just looks at him with boredom clear in his expression.

ZANE: "Now that the Bounty is in our possession again, we can train you more effectively. But you'll have to focus. One more time."

LLOYD: "Oh, but we've been training all day."

COLE: "It's all to get you ready to face your father. Now, in position."

Lloyd sighs as he comes up to the middle of the deck as the ninja put their hoods on and yawns before posing as they did so as well.

LLOYD: "Whatever."

Kai charges at Lloyd first, but he punches him, knocking him back and yawns again. Zane and Jay soon come at him from the air.

LLOYD: "Ninja, go!"

He does Spinjitzu, knocking them both down. As Lloyd lands, Cole comes up him from behind and slide kicks him, knocking him into the air. As he spins, Lloyd lands facedown as the others take off their hoods, in concern.

LLOYD: "That was fun. Are we done?"

JAY: "Oh, come on. You're better than this. What's on your mind?"

Lloyd gets up from the deck.

LLOYD: "Well...The latest issue of Starfarer just came in at Doomsday Comix and it's a limited run, so if I don't go out and get it, it's going to sell out. Last they left off, intergalactic rogue Fritz Donnegan was surrounded by the Imperial Sludge, and if I don't find out if he gets out alright, I think I might have my own doomsday."

KAI: "The fate of Ninjago rests on your shoulders. As the Green Ninja, you have a giant responsibility to hold. I'm sorry, but you don't have time for such childish things."

LLOYD: "Other kids get to play and have fun. All I ever do is train."

Lloyd goes to the railing and sees the Bounty is almost out of Jamanakai Village, where he hears the children's playing in the distance. Nya comes up from below deck as she hears this.
