Anima Ninja

Get Together

ASTER

I stroked Shard's muzzle as I waited for my brother to wake up. Shard moaned deep in his throat, making a dragon purr.

"I know, Shard. They will wake up soon." I looked over at the elemental ninja, in a small space outside the circle of dragons. Each ninja was clearly visible, as was the Samurai. I turned back to the ice dragon. "Don't worry, your ninja will awake soon."

Shard huffed and blew cold air into my face.

My hair blew backwards and I laughed. "Don't get rowdy, Shard. I'm not sure that Zane would approve."

Shard rolled his reddish orange eyes.

"Hey! Frosty's awake!" Lavander yelled.

I looked back at the ninja. Yes, Zane was sitting up, scanning his surroundings. I yelled, "I've got him!" I ran over to him.

He focused on me. He cocked his head, confused. "Aster? What are you doing here? Where are we?"

I smiled. "Well, my nindroid brother, I have a lot more to tell you then just the answers to those questions. Now, let's find a different place to talk. I don't want any of your ninja friends eavesdropping on us when they wake up."

Zane had a very odd expression on his face. "What?"

I pulled him to his feet and led him toward Shard. "You'll see. Oh, and your dragon misses you."

Shard rumbled in agreement. Zane was very confused, and I thought that there was no better way to talk to your unknown brother.

LAVANDER

Seeing Aster with her brother made me smile, considering how Zane was taking it.

Shard blew some snow at Zane, frosting his hair slightly. Aster was talking to him, telling him about the way their father had made her.

I elbowed my brother. "How come we can't have a family relationship like that?"

AJ elbowed me back. "I don't know, probably because we're not strictly related."

I frowned. "I don't like talking about that subject. I don't even like the mention of it."

AJ shrugged. "I don't see what's so wrong about it. You're different now."

Before I could reply, Diana yelled, "Greenie's up!"

As I turned, I saw that Lloyd was sitting up, rubbing his head.

I yelled, "I've got it!" I ran toward him. Helping him up, I said, "Good morning, Lloyd. I'm glad the Green Ninja's awake."

Lloyd looked at me confusedly. "What? How'd you know I'm the Green Ninja?"

Smiling, I said, "Even in one of the most secluded places in Ninjago, you hear a lot about the rest of the world. For example, the defeat of the Overlord."

I started leading him toward the dragons. When he tried to resist, I released his arm and grabbed his hood. After a few seconds of this, Lloyd coughed something out.

"What was that?" I asked.

"Can't... Breathe..." Lloyd gasped.

I let go of his hood and grabbed his arm again. Once inside the loose circle of dragons, I let him go. "Welcome to the eastern coast of Ninjago. Here are the elemental dragons. I believe they belong to you."

Rocky rumbled at me.

"Correction, they are free but will listen to you."

Lloyd was very confused. "Huh?" He spotted Aster and Zane. "Zane!"
