Peace had finally returned to Ninjago. Morro was dragged into the water and died, when Sensei Wu tried to save him. Lloyd came out from the portal from the Realm Crystal, which was generated by Wu. He ran to embrace his mother.
His face fell.
"Dad...He...didn't make it..." Lloyd said despondently, trying his hardest to hold back tears.
Unbeknownst to anyone onboard, Garmadon had finally reached Stiix. He flew straight to the boat on his black and gold elemental dragon and dismounted.
No way! This...This can't be real! Lloyd thought to himself.
"Lloyd!?!" Garmadon cried.
"Dad!?! I..."
The Green Ninja just couldn't believe it. Lloyd ran forward, collapsing in his father's arms and sighed in relief. He began sobbing vehemently in overwhelming relief and joy.
Oh, Father...If you only knew...
"My precious child... You're okay... I'm here... I'm here..." Garmadon whispered soothingly, running a hand through his son's hair.
They were both here.
It was all that mattered.
Garmadon sighed softly. "I have certainly missed you."
"You did this!? For me!?"
"No. For the both of us."
"Oh, Father! Thank you so much!"
Minutes passed. Lloyd comes to his senses, the two of them pulling away. The ship finally made it back to the docks. Then the ninjas repair Stiix with the Tornado of Creation. All was finally well in Ninjago.
