The Plane

I sighed and looked up at the clock, watching the red second hand tick. I did not need to look at the clock on the wall to know the time since I had an internal clock, but it was something to do while I waited. I could have watched the memories in my database, but if I did I feared that I would loose track of time and miss my flight.

Five years have passed since Cole, Kai, Jay, Lloyd and I defeated the Overlord. Jay Walker was a comedian and a famous inventor, and married to Nya Flamey (well… now named Nya Walker), Kai's sister. The ninja of lightning and the samurai usually worked together to create useful machines for a variety of things. Jay usually did his own acts when he worked as a comedian. The two had a child three years ago, and named him Alvian.

Kai Flamey went back and became a famous blacksmith, creating Four Weapons armor and weapons for those who wanted to protect their families. He gladly worked as a smith, since he worked with his element somewhat. He disliked how his training brother was now married to his sister, and he kept a close eye on what they did. I had to calm him down and keep him from exploding on Jay when he learned that Nya was going to have a child, but he eventually got over it.

Cole Brookstone went on to live his father's legacy in dancing, and becoming a famous athlete. He had numerous awards in his dancing career, including the new Blade Cup. His athletic career mostly consisted of Olympic sports, and he had quite a few medals.

Lloyd Garmadon spent two years with his father before becoming a lead director in one of Ninjago's bestselling video game series; Final Light. Jay and Nya were the ones who created the video game systems for each game. Lloyd's parents, Misako and Garmadon had decided to continue investigating prophecies, and became archeologists.

I left Ninjago, and went to a new country to study anatomy and become a doctor, as well as a worldwide chef. I have even created a vaccine for a deadly disease, and was currently undergoing a way to cure the Great Devourer's venom.

Sensei Wu and my father, Julien Juliens, died two years ago in an unfortunate car accident, which I was in.

I traced a finger absently over the long scar on my face, my head still facing the clock. The scar stretched from the right side of my forehead to my chin, crossing right over my eye. I can't really remember the accident… but from what I heard I gathered that some strange force, that is unexplained, swept the vehicle we were in. Reports said that the car had three humongous claw marks on the right side, where I was sitting, along with the damage that it had from when it rolled down the cliff we were driving on. Sensei Wu had been thrown out of the vehicle through the windshield and died on scene. Father had arrived at the hospital, but had died in surgery when the doctors tried to pull a chunk of glass from his abdomen. Doctors told me that a large shard of glass had slashed my face, narrowly missing anything vital. I have partial vision loss in my right eye still. We were in Ninjago when the accident happened, and I was the one who was driving.

"Ninjago Airlines is ready for take off, please board the plane. Repeat, Ninjago Airlines is ready for take off, please board the plane." The intercom blared throughout the airport. I yelped in surprise and stared at the speaker with wide eyes. I was still a little shaky since the accident, and loud noises startled me easy.

I stood, grasping the golden handle of my white suitcase tightly, and walked towards the door that led outside and to the Ninjago airplane, my case rolling on the ground behind me. I watched as many people gathered around the door and slowly made their way to the plane.

I was visiting Ninjago and my brothers, as I did once every year in a thing I would consider a "family reunion", but it was really only we five and Nya hanging out for a night before returning to our normal lives. But… the idea felt… absent today. Absent for the lack of a better word. I could not exactly explain to you what I felt when I woke. I felt like I shouldn't go on the Ninjago Airlines plane, but that was the one airline that I had my traveling points located on, and I always used the points on only that, or job travels, and it was the only plane leaving today.
