"You know why you're the Black Ninja? Because it's the color of your heart!"-Jay
When Morro dies and Nya defeats the Preeminent, the ninja expect that life will go on more or less the same. And it does, for some. Zane rebuilds Pixal, Lloyd focuses on training, Skylor returns from her noodle shop, stealing Kai's attention. Jay continues his life as the lighthearted, funny ninja, cracking jokes and talking endlessly. Nya trains as the water ninja, trying to ignore the drama and awkwardness that seems to come whenever she's around Jay or Cole.
And Cole, well, Cole is a ghost now. Excluded, different, and maybe just a little teensy eensy bit jealous? Of Jay? Cole hates to admit it, but Nya is on his mind constantly. It's nothing. She likes Jay, remember? Cole wishes feelings would just go away sometimes. That would make life a whole lot easier.
Still, the ninja live a peaceful and quiet life on their flying ship the Destiny's Bounty, until one day when everything changes.
Suddenly, Nya, Jay, Kai, Lloyd, Zane, Skylor, and Pixal find themselves trapped in a world of darkness. They must face a kind of villain unlike anything they've ever encountered. Something worse than they could have even imagined.
His name is Cole.
"Love makes us all do terrible things."
Warning: THERE IS BLOOD AND DEATH! ALSO VERY EMOTIONAL SCENES! BUT IT IS A GOOD BOOK!
AND THE BEGINNING IS AWFUL BUT I PROMISE IT GETS BETTER NEAR THE END SO PLEASE KEEP READING!
Enjoy!
It's been almost a year since Nya left the team and merged with the sea. Ever since then Kai and Jay have not been the same. None of the ninjas have. But most of the others had learned to move past it. While Kai and Jay still have their moments of Grieving. Wu was worried about them. She could tell that they still were affected by her "death". Though she was still physically alive, the Nya they knew was no longer there; the Nya they loved was dead. But Wu's worries only grew when he left one day to go do his smoke visions in a more quiet and peaceful place. The other ninja had left to go do some work in Ninjago city while Kai and Jay stayed behind. The two boys recently have been near each other often. They seemed to be discussing something but none of the others would know what. As one of the others comes over they keep their mouths shut. Wu sat by the fire and meditated. How he would love to be able to see what has been going on in the two students' heads, but there was no possible way of doing so. He hummed as his smoke visions started to appear. Everyone was as happy as could be as expected but then the visions slowly started to darken... He awoke again with a small burst of panic but quickly calmed down, he knew to keep them safe. He had to prevent them from whatever they might be trying to do... Little did he know... he was already too late.
What did Wu see?
What is Jay and kai planning?
And who may They be?
