Ninjago Next Generation: Normal Life, SO NOT

New Threat

Disclaimer: I don't own Ninjago, just the story.

"Hey Justin, what's up?" Max said as he walked over to where Justin was by their lockers.

"Not much," Justin said.

"Life at school has gotten a bit better since our parents found out."

"Yeah, but they're still fighting the school about this...and they haven't done anything about Nathan yet."

"Cheer up dude. It'll get better." Max playfully punched Justin in the arm which made Justin flinch in pain.

"Please, don't do that. Nathan punched it earlier."

"He shoved me to the ground earlier. Man, I hope he gets suspended at least." Max reached into his locker and pulled out an ice pack. "Here." He handed it to Justin. "Rosie made us a little mini freezer that we put in my locker just in case we needed an ice pack at school."

"Rosie is the best. Remind me to thank her later."

"Well, when we get home, we have to tell our parents what Nathan did today. They told us to tell them whenever he does something."

"Right."

Alex started walking up to them, but she was frowning about something.

"Hey Alex," Max said as she started to open her locker. "Everything ok?"

"Everything is fine," she mumbled.

Justin and Max looked worriedly at Alex. "Are you sure?" Justin asked.

"Alex, I've known you long enough to know that when you act like this, everything is not fine," Max said.

"I said I'm fine!" Alex yelled. "Now, will you both please leave me alone!" Alex slammed her locker and stormed off.

"Something is wrong with her," Max said. "After school, we should try to figure it out."

"You try," Justin said. "I have something that I'm going to check out."

"Don't get into too much trouble."

"I'll be like a ninja."

Ninjago City

Later

Justin was running on the rooftops of Ninjago City, following Nathan. "What are you up to?" Justin asked himself. He saw Nathan stop at the police station and go in. "What are you doing in the police station?"

"Who are you watching?" Justin turned around at the sound of Rosie's voice.

"Rosie! What are you doing here?"

"Max said that you might do something stupid, so I decided to make sure you didn't."

"How did you manage to sneek up on me?"

"I may be a samurai, but I live with a bunch of ninja. I picked up a few things. Now, what are you doing?"

"I'm following Nathan. I'm trying to figure out more about him to find out why he hates us so much."

"And he entered the police station. We don't know what's going on in there. What's your plan?"

"I'll go in. You stay here."

"Well then take this." Rosie handed a small device to Justin. "It's a recording device. That way I can hear what you hear."

"Ok. I'll be back." Justin went into the police station and saw Nathan head into the room where people visit prisoners. Justin saw the Police Commissioner and walked up to him. "Hello Commissioner."
