Ninjago - Ninja Newbies part 5

    "Where's Kansas?" Takai asked. "Is that where your from?"

    "No!" The adult laughed. "Just an expression from were we come from! I'm Dylan. Pleased to meet you!"

    "Your name is Dylan and you're a girl . . ." Kai mumbled.

    Dylan's eyes flashed towards Kai, with a fiery anger in them. "Got a problem with that?"

    "Not. At. All," Kai replied. She was kinda hot, but of course, he wouldn't admit it.

    Dylan turned around slowly. That guy was kinda cute. Okay, a lot cute, but she wasn't going to admit that anytime soon. Her short, boy-cut, blonde hair swayed in the breeze. She fingered her cross necklace. Okay how had they gotten here? She had to face the facts. MAYBE it had been magic. A huge portal sucking them from planet Earth to who-knows-where, and these guys, from her kid sister's favourite TV show! Okay, so the guy in red (Kai?) is cuter in real life than on TV. She pulled out one of her swords from her back. Katana was the proper name. Her little sister always thought she was like Leonardo, from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Dylan sighed. She missed her sister a lot . . . .

    "Woah! Dylan, watch where you swing that thing!" Kaytie cried, ducking just as the katana swung over her head.

    "Omigosh! Sorry Kaytie!" Dylan exclaimed, putting her katana back in it's sheath.

    "S'okay." Kaytie pulled off her mask, letting her shoulder length blonde ponytails tumble out. She looked at Lloyd (she knew his name because she was a huge fan of Ninjago, and watched it on TV with Dylan's little sister). He was about her age, she guessed. She whispered something to him, making him giggle. Being the youngest was tough, but she liked Lloyd. She remembered the episode where he got turned older, now he was her age. He probably still had the mind of a kid, like her.

    "Wow. Just wow. How'd we end up here again?" Louise asked, as she pulled off her mask. He brain was going way too slow today. Usually, she was the brains of the bunch.

    "I have NO idea! That portal thingy did it!" Mallory cried, yanking her mask off, letting her long red hair tumble out.

    "Portal thing?" Cole asked. He looked at the girl with the red hair. It covered her face and she looked very shy.

    "Um . . . none of us know really . . ." she murmured, her voice getting quiet.

    "So, Shy Girl, what's up?" Cole asked, with a teasing grin. Mallory grinned back.

    "Okay, I guess we should introduce ourselves. I'm Dylan Havoc." Dylan smiled. Kai smiled too.

    "I'm Kaytie Jenson. I'm also the youngest of the four of us." Kaytie stuck her tongue out, playfully. Lloyd stuck his tongue out back at her.

    "I'm Louise Pattera." Louise twirled her hair around her finger, looking at Zane. He gave her a polite smile.

    "I'm Mallory Genta." Mallory looked up at Cole. He gave her a nice smile that made her feel happy inside.

    "Well, I guess we should introduce ourselves too then! I'm Jay Walker," Jay said with a grin.

    "I'm Nya Walker." Nya moved closer to Jay.

    "I'm Kai Flamey." 

    "Greetings! I am Zane Julien."

    "I'm Cole Hence."

    "Lloyd Garmadon."

    "Layne Walker!" Layne cried, popping out from behind her parents, with a huge smile on her face.

    "Takai."

    "Ami."

    "Huh?" Missi pulled her ear buds out of her ears. Ami giggled. Missi's cheeks flushed pink. "Hehe, oh, I'm Missi."

    "Raidan, and this is my twin sister, Raiker. She's mute."

    "So, where are you from?" Sensei Wu asked.

    "Um, well, we're from Canada . . . on planet Earth . . ." Mallory murmured.

    "Never heard of it." Cole smiled at Mallory. He liked her, she seemed nice. 

    "Well, of course you haven't! You're from a TV show!" Kaytie laughed.

    The ninjas looked at her with a weird expression. She cocked her head and gave a confused face. "What?"

    "Erm, Kaytie . . ." Dylan whispered. "They obviously don't know they're from TV! For all we know, our lives could be a TV show here!"

    "Oh." Kaytie's cheeks went red. 

    "Wait, wait, wait, what???" Layne exclaimed, when she had finally digested the situation. "We're a TV show????"

    "Well, yeah," Kaytie mumbled. "In our dimension at least."

    "You're from another dimension?" Takai gasped.

    "I think. Maybe. Probably." Dylan shrugged.

    "To my calculations," Louise stated, her brain speeding up, "we've gone through a dimensional vortex of some sort and wound up in the Ninjago dimension!"

    "We can always count on our little Nerd here to tell us everything we want to know!" Mallory joked, coming out of her shell a bit. 

    "Girls, why don't you pick someone to show you around," Sensei instructed.
