Soto/Skybound Timeline

## Soto

> "*Easy? Everyone knows you can't wish for more wishes, you can't wish for love, and you can't wish to harm others. Wishing a Djinn into a teapot would most certainly fall into that category.*"

**Captain Soto** is a version of Soto from an alternate timeline. He had the same history as his original counterpart, up until Nadakhan's arrival to Ninjago.

He continued to be a prisoner at Kryptarium Prison and despite his past animosity with them, he struck a deal with the Ninja: if they would help him escape from the prison, he would give them a map on where to find Tiger Widow Island so they could retrieve Tiger Widow poison to injure Nadakhan with.

## Biography

### Imprisoned at Kryptarium

#### Helping the Ninja

After the ninja were imprisoned at Kryptarium due to being framed by Nadakhan, Soto approached them after he overhead them discussing the djinn during lunch break. He explained how he was able to trap Nadakhan in the Teapot of Tyrahn, but before he could elaborate further, they were interrupted by the Mechanic and a group of other inmates who demanded that Zane give up his "spare parts". This caused a fight to break out beetween the ninja and the prisoners. During the fight, Soto revealed to Lloyd info on the Tiger Widow venom that could slow Nadakhan long enough to entrap him, however, the pirate captain refused to tell the ninja where the map to the island was unless they broke him out of Kryptarium, before he was escorted back to his cell by the guards.

#### Escaping from Kryptarium

Later that night, Soto was awoken by Kai while the ninja were escaping Kryptarium. However, due to Lloyd stealing the fork Soto was using as a peg leg, he had replaced it with a horn that alerted the guards. The ninja and Soto managed to escape through the sewer system and once they were free, Soto revealed that the map was aboard Misfortune's Keep. Before they went their separate ways, Soto realized that Nya looked identical to Delara and informed the ninja.

After being freed, Soto returned to Ninjago City.

### Ninja Replacement Team

#### Requited by Jay

Soto was one of the ninja replacements selected by Jay to defeat Nadakhan. When he was being recruited, Soto, who was using a whisk as a peg leg, attempted to steal a table leg for a substitute before Jay showed up and offered him a real peg leg in exchange for his assistance. He listened to Jay's plan to infiltrate Djinjago and agreed to be a part of the team, exited at the chance of getting to fight Nadakhan again, before the team noticed they were being spied on by Sqiffy and Bucko.

He defeated one of the pirates sent to spy on them before he rose into Djinjago with the rest of the ninja replacements. After Jay retrieved the Djinn Blade, Soto explained that there was another way to get trapped inside of it, which was to be struck down with the sword. Soto agreed to strike Jay down and after he went inside the blade, Soto and the others decided to hold off the Sky Pirates until he returned. Ronin gave them several tools to use as weapons, giving Soto a watering can, to which he complained about and Ronin told him to get creative with it. He and the other ninja replacements then fought the Sky Pirates while Jay rescued his friends from the Djinn Blade.

After Jay and the ninja returned from the blade, Soto cheered on after Jay prepared to rescue Nya.

Shortly afterwards, Master Wu explained to the ninja how defeating Nadakhan will cause his power to diminish and Djinjago would fall onto Ninjago City. After the ninja left to stop Nadakhan, Soto returned to the city with Wu, Misako and the other Ninja Replacements to evacuate the citizens and witnessed as the debris from Djinjago fell onto the city following Nadakhan's defeat.
