The Second Master of Wind

A New Face?

3rd Person POV

"Woah who is that?" Lloyd asked himself as the mysterious figure he had seen before had jumped in the midst of the fight between Lloyd and Pythor and saved Lloyd just as Pythor was about to bring a rusty, metal rod down on him.

"Get out of here, this is not your fight." The hooded figure hissed in a scratchy tone from behind their mask brandishing their bo staff in front of his face.

"Hate to break it to you, but Pythor is my concern so I'm not going anywhere." Lloyd shot back right before the figure swept his feet out from under him and hit him back into the other ninja, who had heard his screams after they came to look for him.

"Lloyd!" Kai helped him up by his arm as they watched the figure attempt to land blows on Pythor, who just blocked them with the rod.

"Just give up already, you don't stand a chance against me." Pythor sneered as he dealt a painful blow to their side and they struggled to get back up.

"We'll see about that..." The person growled menacingly as they got back up, albeit slowly and painstakingly, and brandished their staff in front of them.

"We shall..."

The figure whirled their bo staff around above their head and swiftly swung it towards Pythor's head, but he managed to block and divert the hit with his tail. This only made the figure even madder and they just started delivering hits left and right.

After several more attempted blows, the figure struck at Pythor hard enough to where the rod flew from his hands. Pythor raised his hands as the figure pointed their bo staff at him warning,

"Get out of here while you still can and leave me alone..." Cuing Pythor to retreat, for now.

As soon as he was gone, the figure turned to the ninja giving them a clear view of an eye, with a scar over it, looking out from under their hood and over a black mask that covered the bottom half their face and black hair covering the other eye.

"Thank you for saving our friend mysterious-" Zane started to thank the figure before they looked at him with a narrowed eye, whirled their bo staff in the air, and struck it down to the ground to create a rolling gust of wind and dirt that knocked them all over.

When the dust cleared, the figure was gone as fast as they had appeared.

"Who was that guy?!" Jay blurted out as everyone managed to pick themselves off the ground.

"Why do you have to assume they were a guy, they could've been a girl." Nya told Jay with her hands on her hips.

"Whoever they were, Pythor followed them here for a reason and clearly they weren't too happy about it." Zane deduced to the others.

"Why can't you just ask Pixal who they were?" Cole asked.

"Because I would need to see their full face in order to run the facial recognition program."

"And so far all we saw was just their right eye." Lloyd finished.

"Precisely."

"What in the world happened here?"

Everyone turned around to see that Ronin had walked in carrying a toolbox under his arm.

"Ronin? What're you doing here?" Jay asked.

"Uhh... I live here."

"Oh... right.."

"Nothin' much, just a showdown with Pythor and some mysterious figure in a hood." Lloyd cut in.
