Girl POV:

I was tired from a days worth of tutoring, and watching my younger siblings. When I fell asleep on my bed, I dreamed of the Tournament Of Elements in Season 4 of Ninjago. Little did I know, it was more realistic then I thought.

Third POV:

The girl wakes to find herself on the ground. 'I thought I was in my bed' she thought. Getting up, she treks towards the city she sees in the distance. After awhile, she begins to get heat exhaustion from the sweltering heat. When the girl reached the city's outskirts, she looks around marveling at the cityscape.

"Wow. I've never see such a city." She says. Then she spots a restaurant with a giant man holding a bowl of rainbow noodles. Her stomach growls so she heads in. Upon her entering, she is shoved hard enough to hit the back of her head on the food conveyor belt.

She blacks out and the thugs who shoved her try to get money from the cashier. The ninja look in the thugs direction and see them attack the . Lloyd noticed one of the thugs bagging an unconscious girl and run out with her. As the ninja fought the remaining thugs, the thugs run out the back door.

Running after them, the ninja find some kind of table with fortune cookies and a poster of their friend above it. "Zane's alive?" Kai asked. "Guys, look." Jay points to the cookies and Cole just stuffs one into his mouth. Lloyd opens his and reads the paper. "Master Chen personally invites you to participate in the Tournament Of Elements." They look at the messages and *time skip to beginning of the tournament* 

The girl wakes up to see herself in an arena with other people. Then she heard a familiar voice. "Welcome to the Tournament Of Elements..." Chen rambles on but the girl could care less. 'This is one way to start the Summer before High School! Ugh!' she thought until she felt an arm drag her to a room. It was one of Chen's Kabuki, and the girl looked at the velvet room in amazement. "Wow." Was the only audible that came from her voice. "My Mom was going to take me to see the Ninjago VA's but now I get to be part of the tournament." She sighs and shuffles around the room. When she checked the drawers, she found a satchel and there was a note attached.

'To whom has found this,

Please care for this bag. It is able to create anything and must not fall into the wrong hands. I know that you do not have elemental powers, for you have come from another Realm. Whatever happens, never let it out of your sight! ~ Anonymous

As the girl read the note, she clutched the satchel. Then she imagines her creeper sweater while reaching into the bag. Unexpectedly, the jacket came out and the girl was internally screaming. Slipping the satchel on, it blended with the girl's outfit. Of course, knowing that she might have to participate in the tournament, she slipped on a purple GI that looked like the Ninja's.

'I hope I can surpass these challenges.' She thought nervously. 'KNOCK KNOCK' went her door. She gets up and opens to a Sensei. "Hello. I'm Sensei—" but the girl cut him off. "Garmadon. Wow, I never thought I'd meet you." She said. Garmadon looks at her confused but let it slide. "Okay, who might you be? And what is your Element?" he asked. 'Crap! Uhh-' "I'm Alyssa and I don't have an... elemental... power." Alyssa manages out.

He looks at Alyssa then glances towards the door. Sure enough, the four Ninja entered, looking for Garmadon. "Dad, where were you?" Lloyd asks. When Alyssa saw Lloyd, she started melting inside but didn't show it. Kai looks towards her and Jay beat him to it. "Who's she?" He blatantly points out. Ole shakes his head, making Alyssa giggle at Jay's childness.

As the Ninja and Garmadon leave the room, Alyssa decides to figure out how to get home. 'I got here by sleeping, so I should be taken back if I sleep again? Now I'm confusing myself' she thought. Getting halfway out of her thoughts, her alarm on her phone begins to play Enter The Tournament by the Fold.

There's something forming in the deep, its attracting all the Ninja

She tries to turn it off but, it wouldn't stop.

A tournament on the surface but beneath, there's something more

Alyssa keeps clicking the turn off button, only to make it get louder.

I can't help it there's a feeling over me, like this place is bound to get ya

"Come onnnn. Stop playing already!" she started to get frustrated.

Sensei Garmadon has piqued our curiosity, and opened up our eyes

"Why won't you shut up! Stupid phone!" she grumbles.

Sometimes the pupil tends to see only what's inside the mind

Alyssa made it clear that she didn't want to tell anyone that she was from another Realm. But the song played in the background.

Ninja, ninja, go-o-o

Don't let 'em get ya, ninja go-o-o

Don't let 'em take what makes you whole

Round for round the truth unfolds

The Tournament Of Elements is just a show

And Alyssa heard silence. She realizes that the song stopped and then heard Chen on the intercom ramble until she heard "GO!" She rushed off to find a Jade Blade, knowing it must be Karloff who loses. Spotting one, she pulls a cloak from the satchel and kept her identity secret from the other Elementals. Grabbing her Jade Blade, she rushes off and places hers in the slot and waits for the round to be over.

Seeing everyone but Kai and Karloff back with Jade Blades made her know that Kai was to move on. As said person arrived, Alyssa walks over to where Garmadon and the Ninja were standing at. She knew that the Ninja were going to meet up in Kai's room so, she snuck off and hid until the Ninja were inside.
