Ninjago: Next Generation

Under Attack

We're under attack! I panicked as I charged towards the two people. My energy was sapped from the fight with the black ninja. I just remembered something. When the green and metallic figure got close, I held my arms out and stopped short.

They collapsed on the ground while I ran to Thomas. "Give me a boost!" I yelled to him. He nodded, understanding what I meant. He stood on the meditation center's edge. He leaned forward slightly and held out both of his hands.

I ran up to him. I jumped, landing on his outstretched arms. He pushed up, and I was on the roof in a flip. "STOP!" I yelled. Everyone on my side froze, and the opponents took a respectful step backwards. I sat on the roof and slipped down, landing clumsily on my feet.

I stumbled my way to the blue and red people, who ganged up on Crystal. I lifted their hoods. Everyone gasped. "Kai, Jay, with Cole, Lloyd, Zayne, and Nya ambushed us! But why?" I asked Kai, one of my heroes.

"Don't blame them," spoke up the quiet Sensei. "I told them about the prophecy first, then I wanted to test you all. Your moves are sloppy, slow, uncreative, obvious, and predictable. And Shelby - ha! Although I admire your recognition skills, you ruined the exercise. You are all dismissed."

Terra and Katrina glared at me. Crystal tilted her head to the side, and Lily stared at her feet. But Thomas... Looking at his expression was the worst. It was pure disappointment.

"But... But guys," I tried to say. "I mean, it's not like this is the last tine we'll ever train with the ninja... No, don't go!" I watched as everyone, even Sensei, turned their backs to me.

I wish Cole would have just crushed me.
