As I stood tall on my mat, I took a deep breath, feeling the air fill my lungs. With each exhale, I let go of tension, allowing my body to soften and open. I reach my arms overhead, fingertips reaching for the sky, elongating my spine. Moving mindfully, I flow through each pose, following the rhythm of my breath. With each stretch and twist, I felt myself becoming more present, more connected to my body and the moment, until my tranquillity was disrupted by the group of chattery ninjas standing in front of me.

"Guys, my training with you won't go anywhere if you won't stay focused." I interrupt their conversation.

"Yes, yes, lead the way o' princess of darkness..." Kai remarks.

"That isn't even my element," I reply.

"Well now that we're talking about it, we don't even know your element!" Jay yells.

"It's space, thought that was obvious guys..." I answer.

"Is space even an element?" Cole questions.

"Morning everyone..." Zane walks in, scratching his eyes.

"Looks like sleeping beauty's finally up," Jay jokes.

"How come no one awakened me?" Zane asks.

"We didn't think you wanted us to. You looked like you were having some dream." Kai says.

"How do I know this isn't a dream-" Zane asks before getting interrupted by Cole pinching his arm.

"Does that feel like a dream?"

"No. Thank you for your help." Zane replies as we all giggle.

"Hehe. Little slow today, huh? What exactly did you dream about?" Kai questions.

"I saw the Falcon again."

"Whoa. Zane, every time you see that bird, something big happens. First, it lead you to the ." Jay claims.

"Then it lead you to the Bounty." Cole adds.

"Good morning pupils, how has my niece's first lesson been so far?" Wu says, strolling onto the deck.

"Uncle, we've literally just been doing stretches." I remark.

"Very well, carry on then." He replies. Remaining his position beside me, observing the class.

"This time, it showed me the Green Ninja, but there was someone alongside him as well." Zane whispers to the rest.

"Who were they?" The three boys ask Zane. I wince at the mention of the green ninja and teleport behind them, them being so oblivious and caught up in their gossip they didn't even notice. I slap the back of each of their heads and teleport back to my spot at the front.

"Hey! What'd you do that for?!" Kai yells.

"And how did you do it so quickly too!" Jay adds.

"Well maybe you'd actually be able to do it as stealthily as me if you guys were properly training. You all seriously need to focus and concentrate if you wanna become better." I say, rolling my eyes. I watch as they ignore me anyways and give up on trying to help them. Just doing my own stretches.

"You can't just drop a bomb like that. Spill the beans." Jay urges.

"Yeah, what else did you see?" Kai asks.

"The two of them were fighting Lord Garmadon. The green ninja protected me while the other figure was teleporting behind Lord Garmadon. They both made a pretty good duo." Zane explains.
