So I know that the Reimagined shorts aren’t supposed to be canon but LET’S JUST SAY THEY ARE
(Spoiler warning if you haven’t seen the first short)
SO MY GUYS
What the HECK happened to Ninjago?
This is sometime in the future, right? The ninja are gone and Ninjago is in post apocalyptic mode, which doesn’t honestly surprise me, Ninjago will keep being Ninjago after the ninja are gone and stuff will continue to go down as it always does
Here’s my major theory THOUGH IM OPEN TO EVERYTHING BECAUSE I FRICKIN LOVE THE POSSIBILITIES OF THIS SHORT
When the ninja were all close to death - either in battle or old age - Lloyd used the last of his golden power to put their spirits or whatever in Golden Statue mode for whenever they need to be called on again to save Ninjago, a la King Arthur
It was all good for a while. The next generation of Masters continued on and the dragon (who is somehow the ninjas’ friend and close ally) watched over them. In my fantasy I see the mountaintop being a shrine of sorts for people to travel to pay their respects to the ninja
Speaking of AT THIS POINT OUR NINJA ARE THE STUFF OF LEGEND, THEY’RE FULL BLOWN MYTHOLOGICAL HEROES
But then something or someone came to Ninjago and killed off the last of the Elemental Masters or destroyed the elemental power somehow
And Ninjago fell into ruin
And whatever destroyed the elemental powers knows that the last hope of Ninjago are these golden ninjas, so they send warriors to destroy them once and for all
They never get past the dragon
But let’s say the dragon has been watching over them and defending them for hundreds of years at this point, he’s a tired boy (pls give him a hug)
BUT AT THE END OF THE SHORT LLOYD’S FACE CRACKED A LITTLE WHICH MEANS THEY’RE COMING BACK THEY’RE COMING BACK
And now I really just want a story of some teenage kid going on a quest to wake the ninja and befriending the dragon and fighting alongside the ninja to save Ninjago one last time and then the kid becomes the first in another line of Elemental Masters and has to distribute the powers somehow
Now I’m rambling, but I really love this short guys, my head is spinning
