My other idea is gonna be way longer(btw the font changes due to the fact that I copied an pasted from word)

'''2) Season 4 was kind of neccessary for the serpentines to appear . But I have another idea in my head that will most likely not be liked by many due to the fact that it changes Chen's plans a lot. First of all, Chen never really had an origin and the reason why he decided to ally with snakes of all species is kind of weird. So my origin is basically that Chen was raised up by the Serpentine when he was young. Hence, he belived himself to be more Serpentine than man even though he was human. When the Serpentine were defeated during the first Serpentine War, Chen decided that he was going to finish what the Anacondrai had started. He decided to strip Ninjago of its defenders of their Elemental powers in order to leave Ninjago ripe for the taking. In order to do that, Chen does the whole Tournament of Elements thing. So after he strips all the Elemental Masters powerless, he proceeds to gather all the Serpentine Tribes to attack Ninjago once more. However, the Serpentine, having been defeated countless times, decided not to. This led to Chen becoming angry and decided to take Ninjago himself without the other Serpentine. Chen had his own “army” too, full of underground brawlers who were promised great things. So having all Elemental powers, Chen proceeds to try and take over Ninjago. The ninja tried stopping him but they were powerless.No one could get near the staff and things were looking bleak. Then, Garmadon came up with an idea to summon the Anancondrai ancestors to banish Chen and Clouse to the cursed realm. Garmy dies, and all of Chen’s remaining army, having no more motivation, surrenders themselves. The ninjas break the staff, and all their elements is restored. '''

'''Now, my reasons for changing Chen’s plans were simple. I felt that turning humans into snakes using the elements was a pretty dumb idea, hence I decided to change that part. This would also reduce the number of time when we see a snake invasion'''
