I cringed writing this because I hate this season so much and I had to re watch the episode like thrice to get a clear picture for plot in my head and I hate this. Tee hee :P

Jay walked around the room with the Samurai helmet on, going back and forth as Kai, Cole, Lloyd and Nya stared at him, waiting. But when he counted the hundredth step in his head, he stopped. "Sorry, guys, nothing."

He took off the helmet as the other groaned in dismay. Right after Cole spoke up. "Darn, I was sure trying on the helmet was gonna help us figure out who those samurai snake guys were."

"Me too." Nya agreed. "Jay, are you positive the helmet doesn't do anything?" She asked.

"Ha! Besides make me look cool?" Jay asked, running a hand through his hair. Even Nya gave him a doubting look, though not as harsh as the others. "What? I know how to accessorize."

Kai meanwhile took the helmet from Jay and started inspecting it again, like he'd done a dozen times already, but nothing about the outer design gave it's origins away. "Hmm... Something about this is familiar, though. I just can't place it. Perhaps Master Wu knows." Kai asked, tilting his head.

"But (y/n) told us to wait until we get permission to see him." Cole exclaimed, as Kai furrowed his brows.

"But this is important! Right Lloyd?" He asked the Green Ninja, who seemed hesitant, but nodded.

"Yeah, it is. I'm sure Wu has enough time to answer one question."

:D

The ninja basically burst into Wu's room, where he was lying in bed with his favorite straw hat placed at the end of the bed.

"Master Wu, this helmet," Kai's voice woke Wu up with a start, and he groggily sat up. "I feel like we've seen it before. Can you tell us anything?"

Wu blinked, but took the helmet offered to him. "Curious. Time..."

"Time?" Kai repeated, gently urging Wu to continue.

"Time waits..." Wu continued.

"Time waits..." Nya repeated, leaning towards him, Jay in turn leaning over her shoulder.

"Time waits for no..." And suddenly Wu fell back to sleep, snoring loudly with the helmet falling out his hands.

"Uh, Master?" Kai said his name as he took back the helmet, and Wu jolted awake again.

"Did someone mention lunch?" He asked, his excitement died down when Lloyd shook his head.

"No, Master, no one mentioned lunch."

"Then why did you wake me?" Wu had barely even asked before he fell asleep again.

Just then the group heard the increasing noise of running footsteps, until (y/n) appeared in the doorway with a pissed off expression, carrying a tray with tea and biscuits.

"Didn't I tell you to not wake him?!" (y/n) marched over, put the tray on the bedside table then turned to the Green Ninja with a hand already pinching his ear. Cole gave them a 'told you so' kind of look.

"Hey! Auch, why me?" Lloyd protested, rubbing his ear once (y/n) let go.

"Because you're the Master now, as long as Wu's like this." (y/n) groaned. "Misako's stressed, I'm stressed too, annoyed even, Zane's out of commission and I'm only doing this because Misako's busy preparing... lunch." (y/n) whispered the last word, then glanced at Wu, who moved in his sleep, but didn't wake up.

Lloyd frowned first, then (y/n) did too, before ruffling Lloyd's hair. "I just... feels like I've gone back in time. It's been a while, I didn't remember how rough it was doing everything at once."
