Ninjago: The Cursed Child

Chapter 39: The Day of the Dragon

The Elemental Masters cheer as they deflated Chen's blimp.

"Sink the ferry. No one's getting off this island" Jay cheered

"yeah including us" Aria commented walking away

"The palace and sleeping quarters are all clear. Still no sign of Chen and Clouse" Cole informed them

"What about Skylor?" Kai questioned

"She wasn't able to pick her family, but she was able to pick her friends. And since you're her friend, that means so are we. We'll find her" Lloyd assured him

"He's right. With no way off the island, it'll only be a matter of time" Cole agreed

"yeah no way off for him or us" Aria confirmed

"I'm proud of you five. You've done what the original Elemental masters never could: stick together" Garmadon praised "But you must not rest on your laurels, for your guard is down when you sleep"

"I've been working on something for that, it's called a nightmare barrier" Aria said as she walked over "while I'm asleep a barrier is up, any enemy that steps in it will have their worst nightmares come alive, they're only illusions though"

"Scary but useful" Lloyd approved

Griffin rushes over to the ninja "Chen just figured out Skylor's powers can finish the spell. She's in danger"

"He's replaced his Elemental staff with the Elements in his daughter" Garmadon clarified

"Where?" Kai asked

"Other side of the island" Griffin replied

"Jay, Zane, you take the mech and buggy. Cole and I will take the Roto Jet. Lloyd, you've got your Elemental Energy Dragon" Garmadon instructed "Everyone else stay here and guard the camp. Let's get a move on!"

"Why is Aria staying here?" Lloyd asked

"Because I need to help guard the camp" Aria replied "just go"

"alright" Lloyd agreed "be careful"

Cole and Lloyd returned, Zugu and Eyezor are handed to Karlof.

"Still no sign of Chen?" Aria asked

"He escaped, but we'll find him" Cole replied "Did Zane ever return?"

"Metal man? I have not seen him" Karlof answered

Garmadon returned

"Dad!" Lloyd runs and embrace him.

"I don't see Skylor or Kai" Garmadon says

"They said they were on their way" Shade informs them

Garmadon groans and falls over. His tattoo starts glowing.

Lloyd bent down next to him "Dad, what's wrong? Your tattoo"

"Something inside of me. Something is happening" Garmadon groans in pain

Garmadon is turned into a snake "The spell...the spell, it's completed. If everyone with the mark of the Anacondrai is effected, that means..." The captured Cultists, who have also turned into snakes, free themselves

"Don't worry. I'm always on your side" Garmadon assured them

"Let's get 'em, guys" Cole says

Garmadon, the Ninja, and the Elemental Masters try to hold off the snake-turned cultists.
