NINJAGO: Amateurs of Adulthood .2

X2

Kane tied his dark gray gi together, facing the mirror in his room before jumping at a knock on the door.

"Come in!" The blonde called out. To which the door was pushed open by his uncle, Cole

"Oh, hey, Uncle." Kane smiled, still keeping his attention on the mirror in front of him

"Hey, kid. You and the others getting ready to go out?"

"Yeah. There's gonna be a villain in the city today, so we're getting ready to head over there and take him out." Kane answered

"Mm, here's the thing. Pixal ain't even call us yet, so how do y'all all know there's gonna be a villain out today?" Cole asked as he laid down on the teenager's bed

"Well, a few days ago when Auntie Pix last called us, the villain we had ended up fighting ended up being a major rat, and giving us all this info in exchange for his own skin. And get this, the guy he gave us intel on is this super strong villain! We're one step ahead of this guy!" Kane explained with a smile

"Really?" Cole asked, smiling back at the blonde

"Yeah! Anyway, we gotta go, Unc! Don't wanna be late!" Kane waved as he headed out of the room

"Aye, don't call me Unc! I ain't that old!" Cole called out after the blonde, who was already halfway down the hall

When he finished, the other three ninja took it as their sign to head out. They each summoned their own bright, colorful dragons to get to the scene as fast as possible. The moment they reached the city, they hopped off their dragons to head to where Roberto said Soothsayer would be, only to find they were too late.

As they felt the ground shake under their feet, the four ninja looked at each with worry before nodding and continuing on with the plan.

2 Weeks Ago:

"Ninja! Ninja!" A voice called out

The four young ninja, who were sat outside of a local cafe for a study session, looked up to see who was calling out to them. To their surprise, it was a rather familiar face.

"Oh, Roberto." Laura said with surprise, awkwardly looking at her siblings who also had no clue why the villain was there

"Hey, ninja! How ya been?" The disheveled looking man smiled, completely unaware of the looks he was getting for civilians passing by

"Um, good. What brings you here?" CJ asked

"Oh- I almost forgot. I've got more information for you!" The man smiled widely

"Oh, yeah! Thank you for last time, too." Laura spoke. "You proved to be someone we can trust, and that means a lot to us."

"Ah-...Aw shucks you guys..."

"So, what do you have for us?" Nick asked

"Oh, right!" Roberto jumped

The man looked around for a few seconds before walking up to another table of what looked like a couple on a date and taking one of the empty chairs

"I'm going to take this now." He announced

"Um...okay..." The woman at the table spoke, her voice unsure

The metal chair made an insane grating sound as it scraped against the concrete before the villain finally sat down at the ninja's table

"So, I recently found out where the Soothsayer is going to attack next!" The older man whispered. Upon hearing this, the four ninja leaned in closer

"Exactly two weeks from now, Soothsayer will strike in the heart of the city...! I've got no clue what he's after, but I figured I should let you all know..."
