The Realm Crystal :Ninjago:

Unraveling a monster truth

Lloyd's POV 

      Me and the guys were eating a breakfast that Zane prepared, it was pancakes. Zenith and Chris already ate so they were playing. Kai2 and Rosco were talking when we heard a familiar voice hum a simple tune. We all turned to see something we didn't expect. It was Terry except she wasn't in her usual attire, she was wearing jeans, a black jacket, gloves, and a scarf. "Good morning." she said setting some poptarts in the microwave. "Excuse me Terry, but isn't that a bit to warm for summer?" asked Zane with a raised brow. "Oh. I'm just not feeling well, probably coming down with something..." she said as the microwave beeped for her to grab her breakfast. "I think... i'm gonna go lie down." she said grabbing her food and heading out the door. "Is it just me or was that really weird?" I asked. They all nodded.

     Terry hasn't come out of Nya's room all day, Nya said she went in there and she was writing and that the blankets were all around her. We decided to talk to Kai2 and Rosco about it, when we entered they seemed to be talking about it to. "Hey, Kai2, Rosco. Is something wrong with Terry?" I asked. "It's just she's been acting weird and we're a little worried about her." added Kai. We all started talking at the same time thinking of how to know what's wrong. "Guys!" said Kai2, we all turned to him. "I think I have an idea." he said standing up. 

Terry's POV 

     I was finishing writing up a song when I heard a knock at the door, "Lunch!" I heard dad call. I covered my mouth with my scarf and walked to the dinning area. I sat down between mom and Lloyd when I realized dad was making lunch. He sat down everyone's food, then before he set down mine I stopped him. "Umm, dad. I just remembered I already ate." I said, "So i'll be going..." I continued standing up. Then mom put her hand on my shoulder, "Wait, your father's got a surprise for you." she said. He then set something 100% amazing in front of me. "Since you aren't feeling well I made your favorite desert." he said. My eyes sparkled with delight, "Huh, Hot chocolate and homemade Ice cream sandwiches!" I exclaimed happily sitting back down. "Umm, I mean, i'm not that hungry." I stated. "Well don't be rude, wait tell everyone's finished."said dad sitting down enjoying his meal. All I could focus on was the deliciousness mocking me, it looks reeeeeeally good! But I must stay strong. "Terry, are you sure you don't want some. I thought ice cream sandwiches and hot chocolate were your favorite?" said mom with a raised brow. 

    "I'm just.... I'm just not hungry." I said. After everyone finished I quickly stood up, "Well, everyone's done time to go!" I said quickly walking away. I then felt a tug on my shoulder, I was tugged back and my scarf was ripped from my neck. My lower face had tiny scales all sprawled out, I had two snake teeth barley were noticed since you could almost not see them. "Terry, oh my Ninjago!" said Dad as him and mom ran forward. "What have we told you about this? The moment this breaks out, come see us immediately." said dad touching my cheek. "Show me your back." said mom. I took of my jacket and shirt, thank Ninjago for underwear, it showed my Anacondrai tattoo. 

    I was born from an Anacondrai follower, when ever they were engraving the tattoo on me though. My birth mother ran away with me before they could put all the magic in the tattoo. When Skylor Chen's absorption element was taken though, it was transported to me. Apparently my birth mother used magic to hide the tattoo, yet the spell wore of on my tenth birthday. "Whoa, whoa. Terry's an Anacondrai follower!?" exclaimed Jay. "No, my birth mother was." I muttered. "If you're beginning to transform that means someone's preformed the Anacondrai spell. Which means you'll stay like this until we know for a fact who it is." said Dad. I looked down sadly, last time this happened everyone thought I was a monster. I got up and ran towards the edge of the bounty. Mom and Dad following. 

    "Terry, are you okay?" asked Mom sitting down. "I just *sniff* am tired of being different. I just wanna be normal." I said crying. "Terry, think back about our family tree. Nobody in our family is normal." said Dad nudging me. I shuffled again, "I guess you're right." I said hugging him. I only wanna be normal, is that to much to ask?
