The ninja were celebrating; Harumi and her Sons of Garmadon goons had been locked away in prison, and Garmadon had been cured (once again). It was a victory worthy enough of a pizza party, and that is what was currently occupying their time. Cheering, laughing, glass clinking, and jokes echoed through the hall of the ninja's current headquarters (A.K.A. the Temple of Airjitzu), as they sat around a large wooden table.
Dareth and Skylor were also present, having helped brought down Emperor Lord Garmadon.
"Man this couldn't have gone any better!" Kai mumbled through a mouth full of Pizza.
"Ew, Kai." Skylor yelped, bringing a hand up to shield her face from flying food.
"Sorry." Came the quick reply as the fire ninja washed down his bite of food with a big gulp of soda.
"So I wonder what happens next..." Remarked Dareth, the (not so) feared but now famous brown ninja.
"I'll tell you what happens next. I get to stay evil free for a while." Garmadon exclaimed.
"To being a good guy!" Jay announced raising his glass of soda.
"Here Here!" was the unanimous response from across the room as glasses clinked.
"Greetings ,Ninja," A voice spoke from seemingly out of nowhere. The world around the startled ninja started to fade to black, Everything losing color, and eventually vanishing.
"Who are you?" Lloyd asked standing up from his now non-existent other ninja were frantically looking for anything other than the consuming blackness.
"I am a writer. A being who writes to manipulate the worlds of fiction. You are a television show in my world, and thus you are fiction. As a writer, I can practically make you do anything I want.
Jay glared at the blackness as if the weird "Writer" would be intimidated by his hard gaze.
"I think we'd know if we were a TV show." Cole announced.
"If you do not believe me, I'll make it simple. I am now forcing Jay to do ballet.
All eyes shot to Jay who was quickly turning bright red. Why? Because he was indeed dancing like a ballerina against his will.
"I can't stop it!" The lighting ninja shrieked.
"Okay we believe you." Kai sighed, and Jay stopped dancing almost immediately.
"Good. As I said, you are a television show, and a good one at that. Recently they made a movie based off of you guys, and I'd like your personal opinion on it."
"So, you ruined our celebration and forced me to do ballet because you want us to watch a movie about ourselves?" Jay grumbled.
"Yes."
"And if we say no?" Misako asked.
"I wasn't giving you an option."
"I dunno ,guys, I say we give the writer what she wants. I can't think of anything better to do than watch a movie and see how our lives are different in a parallel universe." Lloyd finally announced.
"Well, she can make Jay do an awesome Ballet routine, and I'd rather not be embarrassed like that... So movie time!" Kai shouted.
A large segment of the blackness started to glow, and they realized that they were now standing in a movie theater. There were just enough seats for all of them, and they quickly seated themselves. The movie screen glowed to life, and they saw a large shield with the Warner Brothers symbol inside.
The doors opened as a young boy in a bright blue jacket walked into an antique shop. Many various wares were present. After he messes with a suit of armor, a flag drops and hits a board which in turn launches several china cups into the air. Behind the counter, a man quickly catches the cups with expert speed.
"Wow that was impressive." Remarked Jay.
"Yes. Indeed it was." Garmadon agreed.
The man scolds the boy and tells him to go outside and play outside with his friends as he sets the cup back in place. The boy remarks that he has no friends and the man beckons him over. The boy asks if stuff is real to which the guy confirms everything down to the cat is real, and that the cat is a real monster. The boy is clutching a Lego figure.
Man- What is that?
Boy- This is Lloyd.
"Hey, it looks like me!" Lloyd quickly points out.
"Yeah you after a fight with a blender." Kai snorts.
Man- Hmm he looks like a very brave fighter.
"Preach it!" Shouts Lloyd from the theater.
"Shh." Garmadon raises a finger to his lips.
Kid-No, he's just a kid; he can't do anything.
Man- He might look different, but...
The man pulls out a green ninja figure.
Man- he can do great things.
Boy- Woah.
Man- you just have to look at it from a different point of view. This is his teacher.
The man pulls out an old browning Lego that looks suspiciously like Sensei Wu.
"Brother, what happened to you?" Garmadon snarked quietly.
"As you told our son... Shhh." Misako scolded.
Man- Very old, very wise, and very handsome.
Wu snorted, shooting a smirk at Garmadon.
Man- Have you ever heard the legend behind the legend of Ninjago?
Boy- No
Man- I will tell you, but to truly see, you must forget everything you know, and see things in a new way.
The boy walks to a fish tank in the side of the room.
Man- The story of Ninjago is the story of a boy, and his name is Lloyd, and his dad is the worst guy in the history of the world.
The entire theater erupted into laughter as Garmadon stuck his head in his hands, partly in shame and partly in resignation. The only though rushing through his head was, 'just what was going to happen in this movie?'
Anchorman- good morning ninjago!
The shout is repeated in several different languages across a bay.
Anchorman- When Garmadon attacks, we are there. When Garmadon crashes the stock market, we're there again. When Garmadon defaces Whistler's mother, we're still there! We are the only news team watching Garmadon's volcanic layer, twenty four hours a day, this is...
Anchorwoman- Good morning ninjago, I'm Kate Gallaway,
Anchorman- and I'm Ben Shepherd, and I'm pumped to be bringing you the news. Oh yeah.
Kate- Well it looks like everyone is on pins and needles waiting for garmadon's next attack.
Ben- Our experts predict a ninety-five percent chance, today!
Kate- Yikes Ninjago, you'd better stay inside.
Ben- You better stay right there; don't you dare come out. At least not until our secret ninja force steps in.
Kate- Thank goodness for those ninjas
Ben- But who are these secret ninjas ,Kate?
Kate- We have so many questions.
Ben- Fire ninja, where is he on a scale of one to awesome?
Kai- I'm not gonna lie. I'm Awesome!
"I have to agree with the other you. You are awesome." Skylor smiled at the fire ninja sitting next to her.
Kai blushed as red as his suit, before turning back to the movie.
Ben- Earth ninja! When will he upgrade to digital?
Cole- No, I would never do that!
"So movie you has a thing for old records... sweet." Jay shrugs.
Ben-Ice Ninja, is he a real boy, or a robot?
Zane- How dare you? I'm a wild teen.
Pixal chuckled quietly from her seat.
"Well good to know, you're a regular... Wild Teen... Zane." Lloyd snorted.
Ben- Lightning Ninja! Is he the bravest ninja of them all?
Jay is piloting his mech and screaming for his life as he's chased by hostile forces.
Ben- I'll take that as a yes.
Jay stared with wide eyes. He was not that scared. He had taken on a space genie, and a few flying tin cans weren't anything to be afraid of.
Seeing Cole about to speak, Jay silenced him with a glare.
Ben- Water Ninja! She's a girl and a ninja; can she really have it all?
Nya- You fellas... need to... inform yourselves... of we're at culturally.
Nya let out a whoop and pumped her fist. "Yeah Dareth, you need to inform yourselves of where we're at culturally!" She snorted. The brown ninja ducked in embarrassment.
Ben- And finally the green ninja! He fights in the air, on the ground, and in the kitchen with the refrigerator; but what is he hiding, and who is he really?
"Okay, I want to see Lloyd fight with a refrigerator!" Jay shouted, raising his hand.
"Shush ,Students." Master Wu said. "I would like to see what happens."
The colorful screen flashed the change in topic to local birthdays.
Kate- Celebrating local birthdays are this hotdog guy, this panda, and uh oh Lloyd Garmadon?
Ben- The son of evil Lord Garmadon
There's an evil laugh and the picture zooms in on Lloyd.
Kate- Must be tough to be that kid.
"Don't I know it?" Lloyd mumbled into his hands, earning a pat on his back from both his mother and father.
Hi Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm Darkwolf the Writer. I hope you enjoyed the chapter, and more is to come. I saw no one had done this, and I really couldn't resist!
