In the mountains, at Oni's monastery, Dragon is looking at a filled up well. "'Steep Wisdom.'" He said as he puts a bucket in and fills it with water. "Not a bad name for a tea shop." He chuckles as he walked up to the monastery, which now looked like a small building with a sign of a teapot on top.

Inside, Nya, wearing a red & grey sleeveless shirt, blue jeans with tears on it and black heeled boots, was putting a box on a shelf as she was on a ladder. "I thought saving Ninjago was difficult." She said. "Try starting a small business."

Blake, clean shaven and hair cut shorter, wearing a silver jacket, pink t-shirt, black jeans and brown sneakers, was working on the register as Misako watched him. "Dragon can't be a master forever." Misako replied.

"Besides, he looks like he was ready for retirement." Blake said, closing the register. "We all have to help out."

They soon see him. "Speaking of which, Blake..."

Blake soon came up to him. "Oh, here, let me give you a hand with that." He tries to grab the bucket, but Dragon tosses it up and catches it with his other hand before moving around him.

"I am old, not weak." Dragon said as he came up to the counter.

"You look after Ninja, I look after you." Misako replied.

"Well, Steep Wisdom is starting to look like a real teahouse, except for one thing: customers." Nya said.

"Good things come to those who wait." Dragon replied.

"I'm just saying, it was big but I've seen bigger." Kai was heard as they all turn to see the Ninja land in front of the shop on their Power Dragons.

"As big as your ego?" Jay asked.

"Sure." Geoff sarcastically said.

"Oh, who am I kidding?" Dragon asked. "I'm tired of waiting. I'll put the Ninja to work."

Soon, Gewuji, wearing a light blue flannel shirt, white t-shirt, black jeans and black heels, and Maggie, wearing a tan sweater, light green jeans and brown boots, came in. "Hey, the new outfits just arrived." Gewuji said as they came out with Dragon, Blake and Nya.

"Good to hear." He then turned to the Ninja. "Ninja, you need to find customers."

"No 'Hello. How's it going? Glad that you saved the day...again'?" Jay asked as they got off their dragons as they disperse.

Maggie soon pinched her nose. "Ew, what's that smell?" She asked.

"Hauled in a giant fish." Geoff replied. "Sorry about the smell."

"Yeah, Master, we're all a bit tired and we smell." Cole said. "You mind if we handle this tomorrow?"

"We all have a share if this business succeeds." Dragon replied. "Besides, never put off until tomorrow what can be done today. How else do you expect me to be able to afford all your new uniforms?" He soon took the box Gewuji held and opened it. "Which reminds me, your new ones arrived."

"What do they look like now?" Kai asked as Dragon got one out.

"Sweet!" Jay said.

"I bet they're off the hook!" Cole said.

"Huh?" They all ask when it is shown to be white t-shirts with a teapot on them.

"Those don't look like ninja uniforms." Geoff said.

"They resemble work attire." Zane said.

"Very observant, boys." Dragon replied. "We must focus on furthering grand awareness." He soon got out some flyers. "And here are the flyers I want each of you to pass out in the city."

"If I have to pass all these out, I may be the one passed out!" Jay yelled.

"No complaining. Now, go get cleaned up and get ready to work."

"Yes, Master." They reluctantly said before noticing the other box.

"What's in the other box?" Cole asked. "Not more work clothes, is it?"

"Uh, no, it's the girls' new ninja outfits." Dragon replied as he took it and opened it.

"Lame." Kai muttered as Gewuji and Maggie each took their gis of respective colour.

Dragon soon sees something else inside the box. "Oh, there is a silver gi in here." He gets it out to look at it. "And it's a man's." This gets Blake thinking. "I thought I ordered a woman's grey one for Nya, but they sent this one by mistake."

"How about if I wear it?" Blake asked as he came up to Dragon.

"Absolutely not! Besides, you're a samurai, Blake."

"I can't remain being Samurai X forever."

"My answer is no."

"Fine." He soon went back inside, grabbing a nearby box and placed it on the counter.

Half an hour later, the Ninja had just washed the smell off of them while their gis were hanging to dry as they were putting their new work shirts on, over their civilian clothing as well as having teapot shaped hats. Lloyd, Jay and Cole wore theirs underneath their jackets, Kai had his over his sweatshirt, Zane had his over his white shirt without his vest and Geoff was wearing his, with just his jeans. Before they could start however, the phone soon started to ring. "Oh, that could be our first order." Gewuji said before shushing at them and immediately answered the phone. "Steep Wisdom. How may we serve you?"

"Aren't we gonna look kind of dorky flying up on our Power Dragons with these things on?" Kai asked, referring to their work attire.

"You won't be flying on anything." Dragon replied. "We're selling tea, not magic. Besides, you all have been relying a little too heavily on your Elemental Powers lately. Real power comes from the inside."

"It would be our honour, Master." Lloyd replied.

"Thank you." Gewuji said as she was still on the phone, looking concerned. "I'll let him know right away."

"Is it a big order?" Nya asked as Gewuji placed the phone back on the receiver.

"It's the police. They've asked for Lloyd. There's been a break in at the museum." Everyone gasped.

"Go on." Cole said. "Geoff and I will take your share."

Lloyd divides his flyers between Geoff and Cole. "Thanks." He replied. "I owe you two one." He soon prepared to leave.

"Aren't you gonna kiss your mother goodbye?" Misako asked.

Lloyd stopped and placed a hand on his head, in embarrassment. "Mom, we've talked about this. I'll catch you on the way back." He soon leaves as everyone laughs at him.

"Remember, no powers." Dragon reminds them and the male Ninja groan.

At the museum, Lloyd, in his gi, which air dried on his way over, came up to the entrance where there was a crime tape in front of it and Cornelius and Clive were inside. "Well, lookie here!" Clive said. "The Green Ninja, feel safer already." Lloyd soon jumped over the crime tape.

"I got your call there was a break in." He replied as he sees some men, in coveralls, push a cart with a body bag on it out of the museum. "Who's that?"

"Stempert Higbee." Cornelius said as one of them raises the crime tape up for the other to move the cart through. "He wanted to be a cop, now we have to tell his preggie wife that he'll never become one and his baby will never know daddy."

"Night watchman over there, Joe Josh, was working alongside the victim and had quite a scare." Clive said, pointing to Joe, who is wrapped in a blanket, with a cup of tea. "Doesn't remember a thing. Not even how his partner was killed."

"Hasn't been too helpful. Maybe you'll have better luck."

"Oh, thanks." Lloyd said as he went up to Joe.

"Did you make the call for him?" Clive asked.

"No, I didn't, you dipstick." Cornelius replied. "Did you?"

"Hell, no. I wonder who did."

"Mr. Josh, you and Mr. Higbee were on guard when it happened?" Lloyd asked. Joe starts breathing heavily. "Can you show me what was stolen?" He comes closer. "Mr. Josh, I'm...I'm here to help you." Joe immediately glared at Lloyd, drops his cup, grabs him and drags him down the hallway.

"Hey, the bathroom's the other way, Mr. Josh!"

In a storage room, Joe throws Lloyd inside before closing the door behind him. "I was knocked out." Joe said, his voice was different for some reason. "When I came to, Higbee was dead and I found the only thing stolen was something that wasn't even on display." He shows Lloyd a forced open crate with sand around it. "Just a worthless old armour breastplate they called the Allied Armor of Azure."

"Why would a thief leave these priceless relics and take just that?" Lloyd asked.

"Oh, I don't know. Maybe it's cause when you're in trouble they say it's got the power to summon allies, whether they be friends, foes, even spirits from the Cursed Realm." He soon grips his gun and starts to pull it out.

"The Cursed Realm? My father is there." Lloyd turns around the see Joe about to pistol whip him, but he jumps out of the way as the grip hits the sand. He soon came up to Lloyd as he was near a cabinet and tries to pistol whip him again, but he moves out of the way as the gun hits the cabinet, knocking the blanket off, revealing some armour. "Allied Armor? YOU stole it?"

"So, Wu chose you to be the beloved Green Ninja? Silly old man."

"How do you know Dragon? And if you've got a bone to pick with me, maybe we can discuss things without weapons." Joe once again tries to pistol whip Lloyd, but he moves out of the way as the gun hits some boxes, knocking them onto him. Lloyd soon came over to the knocked boxes, kicks the gun away and looks at Joe. "I don't want to hurt you, Mr. Josh."

Joe was about to get up, but fell back as a shadow soon came out and goes into a portrait of Chen above him. "What's going on?" Joe's voice was back to normal as he sat up. "Someone was in my head! They made me kill Higbee!"

The portrait laughs before Lloyd grabs it and smashes it into a Hypnobrai statue. The shadow soon goes inside the statue and it turns to Lloyd. "Your powers are useless." The statue said. "You think you can hurt a ghost? I can possess anything." The statue soon wrapped it's tail around Lloyd, trapping him before the shadow moves out, along the roof and enters the sand, which forms into a figure of a young man.

"When he was in my head, I saw his thoughts. The world! The world will be cursed!"

"You're a ghost from the Cursed Realm." Lloyd said to the sand figure. "How did you escape?"

"When your father opened the door, he should have been more careful what came out." The sand figure soon charged at Lloyd, engulfing him in it as it soon caused a sand tornado around him.

Lloyd soon turned to Joe. "Hurry! The Allied Armor! Give it to me!" Joe takes the armour off and throws it to Lloyd, who catches it. After a few seconds, Lloyd comes out of the sand tornado and opens his eyes as Joe looked up.

"Behind you!" He yelled.

Lloyd stood up to look at the figure, now wearing the Allied Armor. "You can't have the armour!"

"The armour's nice, but it's not the only thing I want to possess." The figure replied.

"What else do you want?"

"YOU!"
