Sora shocked with her eyes widened. She heard what P.I.X.A.L. said. That's why the furnitures covered in Zane's room, Reneya called and crying. "Ano?!(What?!)"
"Zane is dead. He sacrificed himself to save Ninjago. He protected us from the Overlord." Kai explained.
"We're very sorry, Sora. We didn't give you the news about this." said Sensei Garmadon.
"You...you must be joking...Haha... Zane is a nindroid. He can't die." Sora refused to believe.
"Sora, this is not a #$^*$ joke. Our senpai is gone. His father died too, you know." Reneya hissed.
"Do you have any proof, like corpse or evidences?" Sora asked.
"Here's the evident!" Yukina showed Zane's broken face to Sora. "He was destroyed and his power is gone. He stopped the evil nindroids by his ice." he said.
Sora shocked as ice. She trembled that Zane is really gone. "Well, I think his body is somewhere else or became a hacked or system. I don't believe this. Zane is still alive. Right, Zaniel?" she looked at Zaniel.
Zaniel didn't say anything. He hugged Sora.
"Zaniel..."
"Sora, I know that you love your senpai so much but... you need to let him go. He's reunited with his dad now." Zaniel answered.
Sora heard and understood what Zaniel said but still didn't believe Zane's death. All of them heard him too. They knew Zane wanted to see his father again.
"Why... You don't believe me..." Sora pushed Zaniel and ran away.
"SORA!" Zaniel shocked but Kai stopped him.
"Just leave her alone. She can't accept Zane's death." said Kai.
"But... Sora..." Zaniel began to worry.
"She needs more time to be alone." said Misako.
Meanwhile, Sora ran outside. She didn't believe that her senpai is dead. She can't accept it. She will not cry. She stopped at the tree where she and Zane trained. Her flashback started they're fighting in training. Sora was keep attacking Zane but Zane dodged it. Sora punched Zane's face. Sora shocked and hurt her fist.
"Ouch! I mean, Sorry Zane-senpai!" said Sora. Zane slipped and kicked Sora's legs. Sora fell on the ground with a 'thud' sound.
"Hey!" Sora pouted.
"Apology accepted but no hesitate." Zane gave a hand to help Sora.
"Alright. You're the master." Sora smiled. She grabbed Zane's hand and got up.
Suddenly, Reneya is crying at side of road. Sora and Zane heard her. Sora took her gun and walked to Reneya.
"Reneya, I'm gonna shoot that bully. Where the $# ^ is he?" Sora asked.
"Sora, don't you dare bring that gun." said Zane.
"No... It's Chuchu..." Reneya cried and pointed at the dead cat. The dead cat came out of blood and internal organs. Zane shocked and Sora disgusted.
"I'm sorry for the loss." Zane frowned and hugged Reneya.
"Ew! It was scary that the dog got road kill." said Sora.
"It's my cat, not a dog." said Reneya.
"Yeah! Yeah! We should bury your do- este (I mean), cat at the ground. I'll bring the cat and you two bring a shovel and flowers." Sora suggested and went to the road.
"Alright." Zane and Reneya agreed.
While Zane gets the shovel and Reneya picks some flowers, Sora grabbed a dead cat with tissue and put it on the bag.
"Ew! Yuck! I cannot believe it that I touched the dead cat. Reneya is a coward to get it." she said. She moved the bag of a dead cat on the side of the road. Her small bottle of scented beads fell on the ground. Sora noticed came back to get it. Suddenly, the drunken driver drove so fast and going to crash at Sora.
"SORA!" Zane shouted and ran.
"Eh?" Sora heard him.
The car is almost there but lucky Zane moved Sora away. The car drove away. Sora and Zane were safe. Reneya saw everything what happened. She went closer to them.
"Are you guys okay?" she asked.
"We're fine." Zane answered.
"The driver is an #$hole. He didn't learn how to drive. I'm glad that I don't get road kill." said Sora.
"I'm glad you and Zane-senpai were safe. Let's bury Chuchu." said Reneya and left.
"Um...Zane-senpai?" Sora called Zane.
"Yes?" Zane looked at her.
"Salamat.(Thank you.)" Sora blushed.
"Walang anuman. (You're welcome.)" Zane smiled.
Sora, Zane and Reneya prepared a funeral for Chuchu the cat. After they finished the funeral, Reneya put the flowers on the funeral.
"I guess Chuchu is special. She likes it." Zane commented.
"Yes, Chuchu is very loyal and always wants to be with me...Now, she's gone." Reneya began to cry.
"Hey! Rene, don't cry like a cry baby. Chuchu doesn't like it. Besides, she's in cat heaven. Kami-sama always takes care of her." said Sora.
"I guess Chuchu is happy to see her mom." said Reneya.
"Here! This one will cheer you up." Sora gave a small bottle of scented beads to Reneya. Reneya smelled it.
"It's mint. Is that okay for you to give this to me?" Reneya asked.
"Yup! I'll buy it at Gensoyume. Oh! Zane-senpai, what scented beads do you like?" Sora asked.
"Well, anything that you like." Zane answered. He felt sad that he remembered someone.
"Zane-senpai?" Sora noticed.
"Huh! Nothing...It's just... I missed my father." said Zane.
"Your father is always there for you." said Sora. She patted Zane's shoulder.
"Sora, how do you feel that someone passed away?" Zane asked.
The flashback ended. Sora remembered Zane's question.
"Syempre(Of course), Sad and hard to let your loved ones go...Zane-senpai, you're my loved one because you always like my big brother to me and Reneya... Why..." Sora answered. She put out her wristwatch and turned into a big, blue motorcycle. She drove it and went to the New Ninjago City. The song was "When you're gone" by Avril Lavigne.
I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie is made up on your side
While Sora went somewhere alone, Reneya stayed at Zane's room. She looked at the picture of Zane, Sora and her on a snow mountain. She remembered that Zane saved her from the cover of snow. She was crying. Yukina hugged her.
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
Cole baked pancakes for breakfast. His cooking learned from Zane. He remembered that he burned his pancakes. He's the worst chef. Zane helped Cole for his cooking skill. They worked together. Cole wiped his tears away.
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through
The day and make it ok
I miss you
Jay invented something. He noticed Zane's toolbox. He remembered that he and his friends discovered that Zane is a robot. Jay is the first one to call Zane a "nindroid". Zane started to fix himself but Jay helped him. Jay kept Zane's toolbox and put it on his closet for his kept sake.
I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you, I love the things that you do
Kai was on training. He remembered that he and Zane fought each other as a duel. Kai defeated Zane but he helped him to get up. They sat on the chairs and drank tea together. Kai felt sad. Nya was here and hugged his brother.

Lloyd looked at the photo album of his journey with his friends. He also remembered that he pranked Zane to make his white ninja suit into pink, and also, learned a spunjitzu. Lloyd showed the photo album to Sensei Garmadon and Misako, his parents.
And when you're gone
All the words I need to hear to always get me through
The day and make it ok
I miss you
We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were, yeah
Sensei Wu took a medication. He remembered that Zane is a polite and respectful student to him. They have a strong bond between them.
And all I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I'd do, I'd give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me, yeah
P.I.X.E.L. went to the garden with white roses. She misses Zane so much. She met him at the Borg Industries. Zane cured P.I.X.E.L. from the Overlord's virus and fought to stop the evil nindroids. She remembered that Zane confessed to her. She smiled and thinks that Zane is the sweetest nindroid that she first met.
When you're gone

Sora is still driving her motorcycle. Her favorite memory with Zane was on her birthday. They danced waltz in the ballroom. She hugged him. Zane smiled and hugged her too. Sora stopped at the Borg Industries.
And when you're gone
All the words I need to hear will always get me through
The day and make it ok
I miss you
She looked bottom to the top. She parked her motorcycle and went inside to visit Cyrus Borg. At Cyrus's laboratory, Cyrus was reading a book and saw Sora's arrival. He rolled his wheel chair.
"Why hello, Ms. Starbladzer." Cyrus smiled and shook Sora's hand.
"Oh! Nice to meet you, Professor Cyrus. How did you know me?" Sora asked and shook Cyrus' hand.
"P.I.X.E.L. told me. You're Zane's student. Come! Take a seat." Cyrus requested and called the maid robot.
"Arigato, Professor Cyrus. Your lab is great. I'm going to charge my smartphone." said Sora. She took out her smartphone and charger. She plugged both at the electric current. Suddenly, her smartphone is upgrading and finished. Sora noticed and curious that her smartphone upgraded something. She ignored it and sat on the couch.
"I heard that the ninjas called you here to join the funeral of Zane." said Cyrus.
"Yes, he's my senpai. He's older than me and Reneya. Well, he's one hundred years old." Sora giggled. The couch shook her. Sora shocked. "Eek!"
"Ms. Starbladzer, are you alright?" Cyrus asked.
"Oh! This is a new massage couch that you made." Sora laughed a little.
"Um... yes, is it on?" Cyrus asked.
"Let me see..." Sora checked the switch of the massage couch. She figured out that it was off. "Nope, it's off."
"Hmm... that's strange. There's something wrong. I'll check it later." said Cyrus, curious.
The maid robot brough a two cups of hot chocolate and chocolate chip cookies on the tray. She placed it on the table. Sora and Cyrus were drinking a hot chocolate.
"It's delicious." Sora commented.
"I know but I told the maid robot to make a tea and a slice of vanilla cakes but this one is fine. I really like the flavor." Cyrus ate a cookie.
Sora dipped a cookie into the hot chocolate and ate it."Technically, it tastes like Zane's cookies..." She noticed and realized that the cookies made cheer her up.
"Zane can cook. Wow! I didn't know." Cyrus smiled.
"Yes, he's good at cooking." said Sora.
