《More Than Meets the Eye (A Ninjago Fanfic)》Chapter 1: Escape from the Cursed Realm

"Keep running! Keep running!" I told myself. I had to keep moving. My lungs were screaming, my legs burning. The smoke stung my eyes and stuck in my throat, but I had to keep moving.
I struggled to see through the thick smoke hanging in the air. I had to find the portal back to Ninjago before HE caught up to me.
There! I could faintly see the soft glow of the portal through the smoke.
"You are going nowhere!" Spat a cold voice.
"Oh, yeah?" I called looking around me, frantically trying to locate the owner of the voice. "Watch me!" I growled, flinging myself through the portal as I came within jumping distance.
I erupted out of the other side of the portal...in NINJAGO!!! Home at last. I glanced worriedly behind me at the portal. I was unsure if HE could cross over as well. "I guess all my studying on the location of this portal paid off." I muttered to myself.
It seemed that he wasn't going to be able to cross over to the land of the living. I suppose since technically I hadn't died I could cross over, whereas he had died. Rising to my feet, I began to brush off the dirt that covered my front. I looked around, studying my surroundings. I was in a forest of some sort. I took in the sight of an assortment of trees: birch, ash, maple, willow, and the list goes on.
I was admiring the view, including the stars, which were especially vibrant and vivid in the velvety black night sky. I was rudely snapped back to reality when an explosion spewed from the portal behind me. I was launched through the air only to end up sprawled on my stomach on the damp forest floor.

I immediately curled into a ball and covered my head with my arms as I felt something strike my back. A tingling sensation followed, spreading from my back to the rest of my body. I clamped my eyes shut as the sensation overwhelmed my senses for a brief moment, making me gasp quietly.
The sensation dissipated and I quickly recovered to a standing position, feet braced in the damp soil. I stood facing the portal, frozen in horror as I processed the scene before me.
A green-grey cloud of smoke drifted. From the portal. 'He can cross over!' My brain screamed.
"Hahaha." The smoke chuckled malevolently. "Free at last!"
"No..." I moaned, nausea creeping its way into my stomach. A tear escaped from my eye. I knew what his freedom meant. I also knew that I had to evade capture at his hand...for I could very well be what aids him in his quest to conquer Ninjago or his downfall. I had to get away.
I turned and fled. Branches clawed at my face, but that wasn't the main concern. Whether my face took a beating from trees or not was of little importance, right now the most important thing was putting as much distance between me and this place as I could, as fast as I could.
"Hahaha...run child!" His voice echoed through the forest, dripping poison. I continued my mad flight through the trees. "You're mine..." I heard him whisper on the breeze, ominously.
I kept going, his words "you're mine" ringing in my ears. I fled farther and farther from the portal, one thing becoming more apparent to me with each step... I couldn't run as quickly as I normally could and my line of vision seemed closer the ground than usual.
One thing was for sure...something wasn't right.

Letters from a Dying World
Times historic are often penned after the fact in the lifeblood of the pitiful, forgotten masses. That roiling, uncountable crush of humanity, they who held the pikes and they who threw down the tyrants. Their veins opened by gazes academic, sharp and cruel, and pecked away at with quills, written out of their own story. The Second Dark Crusade was a time of such poignancy. A time when the light of man waned and flickered, choking in the acrid smoke of its own inadequacy. As befitting of such an age it has been covered more than a capital whore, and so I attempt not to tell that story again. That story of dull, unfeeling analysis. Neither here will you find the browbeating, propagandistic screeds so common in the hands of men, the light of youth still burning behind their eyes. Nay, here I shall attempt to cover fresh ground, not tread on the grave dirt of long dead authors. Here I shall attempt to tell the story of the small lives caught, unbeknownst to them, in the great and torrential downpour that we now call history. Here lies the true story of The Second Crusade. - Loremaster Ip'Qal
