Misty and the Sons Of Garmadon (Ninjago)

Useful 80

If Misty was going to be honest with herself this little hike through the jungle was pretty annoying and, only having Lloyd and Harumi to watch got boring after a while and even the scenery was becoming tiresome, after you've seen a tree for a hundredth time...

Misty perked up though when she heard Lloyd say, "Stuck in a palace all your life, did you ever imagine you'd be in a place like this?"

"Hacking my way through Primeval's Eye? Not so much..." Harumi admitted, but then added, "But to be perfectly honest, I always dreamed being with you..."

Lloyd smiled and his face turned red, and Misty dug her finger nails into the tree she was on. But Harumi said, "But I heard you were with Misty the Master of Crystal... both of you seem to have some chemistry going between you two..."

Lloyd frowned and said, "I'm not sure what's between me and Misty at the moment... besides I think I've started looking toward someone else..." and he's face redden and he closed his mouth quickly, added "So according to this, we're almost to the Black River, We just have to get past this part that reads, "Strangler's Path."

"Uhh. Did you say Strangler's Path? That's cheery. Why is it called that?" Harumi said

"Places like these always have colorful names , Half the time it doesn't mean anything, The Caves of Despair, Blind Man's Eye, Hiroshi's Labyrinth, probably just some bored mapmaker with a wild..." Lloyd started to say but Misty noticed Vines appeared behind him and then latched on to Lloyd and dragged him away.

"Lloyd?!" Harumi said

"Harumi!" Lloyd shouted as he was pulled away, the map that was acting as a sling was pulled off, Lloyd was trapped.

Misty bolted after him, as Lloyd was being dragged along the ground he swore he saw a figure running to the right of him, he didn't get a clear look but he thought it looked liked Misty.

He felt someone grabbed his hand and try to stop him but he was begin dragged to fast. Just before he was about to be dragged into the mouth of a TREE! his sword came flying trough the air and broke him free and was able to kill the vine and tree.

Lloyd felt whoever had grabbed his hand let go and saw a figure get flung a little ways away from him.

"I-it just- It tried to-- you just threw, how did the tree? and Who?" Lloyd said as he turned to see the figure, when he did he saw the person raise their face and saw a pair of violet eyes glaring back at him, unmistakably Misty's eyes.

He looked back at Harumi still into much shock to register Misty's sudden appearance, and said," Where did you learn to throw a sword like that?" as he stood up.

"Uh I-I don't know You were gonna be eaten... I got lucky I guess..." Harumi said she had the map in one hand and Lloyd was holding the other.

"Luck? You were clear over here!" Lloyd pointed and Harmui grabbed his hand and pulled him forward and kissed his cheek. She stopped and said, "Should I not have done that?"

"No. I mean, yes. I mean-!" Lloyd said and then sighed happily and said, "Ahh. I guess now we know why they call it Strangler's path. He then turned and took the sword and handed back to Harmui and then took the map from her as she asked.

"How's your arm?"

"It feels all right now." Lloyd said

and he turned to where Misty had been laying, and said, "Well Misty nice for you to finally rejoin us..." But he stopped as he saw the place she had been laying was now vacant. but on a tree not far away was craved a message saying, "I never left, I promised I'd protect you didn't I? One of us has to keep our promises right?"
