"My Elemental Power Is Ink!?"

5 months till plot

***

Vexs Pov:

'It has been 1 month since i have arrived in this world, during that time i have concocted a plan to or as that so called interface says "kill all these people", and yes i'm going to do what it says, because i don't want to mess with whoever made this thing, and i might get rewarded, who knows. I have been helping Mystaké around the tea shop in exchange for me living and education and I can confidently say that that old hag is exploiting me for all I'm worth. I mean one time she asked me for a pillow!!! and you know why? "because my aching bones can't handle the arduous work of managing my tea shop" which by the way i'm doing all the work for!, but i digress.' - Vex

'Back to my plan, the first step is to learn. Inh order to do this I need a teacher, now the're a couple of options for this.

1. Master Wu

2. Lord Garmadon

3. Master Chen

'I immediately get rid of Master Chen because he is currently on an island that I can't get to until season 5, we are years off that, he also has the staff of elements, which can take my elemental power, oh ya my elemental power is ink... What am i going to do with ink, draw a cute little pony on my enemies? No!!... and for anyone thinking "Ink's not an element" well shut up, "Ember" is an element in Ninjago so why cant ink be'

'*sigh* I also cross off  because if I learn under him I'll probably be labeled as evil and be hunted down by the ninja, that only leaves Wu which is the most accessible and easiest to convince to train me, he has a track record of teaching villains . I plan to leave today to go up to the monastery and convince Wu to teach me. I just have to say goodbye to Mystaké'.

Pov Mistake:

'That boy Vex is such a deary, he'll do anything for me to keep his room' I think to myself with a mischievous grin as I see him come from the bathroom. He has a kind smile as if there is nothing wrong and his body language gives off an aura of purity.

Vex - "Good morning Grandma Mystaké'' he says with an even kinder smile. 'I don't know why he's calling me  Grandma, I'm only a couple of hundred years old.

Mystaké - "Vex honey, the plants need watering could you do that for me".

Vex - "Sorry Mystaké but i can't do that, i'm going to go up to the monastery to learn  from Master Wu'' He said while slightly jumping up and down, he looked really excited, only then did i realize the backpack he was wearing. 'as if he'll succeed, that old bastard hasn't accepted a student in years, as if he'll accept you' - Mystaké

Mystaké - "Well ok, but when you inevitably fail please come back and water them, oh and do you know the way to the monastery, dear?" i say with a smirk

Vex - "Yes it's right up this mountain, and looks over Jamanakai Village, my memory's not that bad Mustaké" He says impatiently

Mystaké - "Well ok then, but please be careful to not fall down the steps and did you pack everything you need?

Vex - "*Sigh* Yes Grandma Mystaké i have food and water to last a couple of days and if i succeed i bought a couple clothing and on be" he runs off with upbeat attitude 'what an innocent young man'

Pov Vex:

As soon  as I get out of the village my steps gradually slow and become steady, for a split my demeanor changes to a very cold one... one that would give you chills if you looked at it, if Mystaké was here she would be incredibly surprised. 'unfortunately for you Mystaké... you're on the list, so you'll have to die.' Then my demeanor immediately went back to innocent and cheerful and I walked up to the start of the steps and climbed.

'*Huff* *Huff* So many steps' I was Huffing my way up the many steps of the monastery looking up i see that i'm not even halfway, looking back down i could see Jamanakai Village and the people looked like ants from this high up. 

'10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1' I fell over and I'm finally at the top. In front of me was a big door with a giant horseshoe on it, the walls were 16 feet high and noises of training were coming from inside. 'I should probably knock'.

*Knock Knock* I waited for a couple seconds and the person who opened the door was an old man, he was tall, around 6ft(182cm), his beard was pure white (as all his hair was)and came down to his hips. He was wearing a white gown, he had a golden hat, and he was finally equipped with a staff that was as tall as him.

When Master Wu saw me he was incredibly surprised, not because i was at the Monastery, but because i look very similar to him when he was my age, i put on my kindest smile and say

Vex - "Whoa Mr. Wu could you teach me spinjut-*SLAM*" and before I could even finish he slammed the door on me. 'You'll come around old man and if you don't i'm sure you will after seeing that i have an element you've never seen before' I knock again 

Vex - "Mr Wu, i just want to help people a-and to protect myself... you see, *deep breath* 1 month ago

i woke up with only my name and how to speak the language and i have no memory of who my family is, s-so i was hoping you would be able to help me?" 'I put my acting skills on the max to make it seem like i'm just an innocent boy lost in the world and just wants the power to find his lost family, this is the character i will be playing for these good guys, it might change later, but right now i need power to "kill all these people™" this is the most accessible. The door opens again.

Master Wu - "I only teach Elemental Masters as in the wrong hands  is a formidable foe" 'You're lying "I only teach Elemental Masters' ' remember that time when you taught that snake ? But  you can't teach a little innocence to me.*sigh* i guess I'll just tell him about my element, i don't really lose anything from and might even figure out how to use it'.

Vex - "Mr. Wu... um... i-i think i might be the Elemental M-master of ink..." then i pull up my sleeve and you could see my arm start turning black with ink, it was kinda creepy as if it was a curse that ran up my arm, and and soon as it appeared it went away, leaving my pale slightly bulky arms. 'I look up to see Master Wu's Shocked face, as if it was the first time seeing a woman's *cough cough*.' He then immediately went to a thinking face and just stared at me, I put on a kind smile and waited for a response.
