Guys. I KNOW that Zane wasn't on a team nor in the last chapter. This chapter will tell you EVERYTHING! This is in Zane's P.O.V until the line that line thing. You know what? I tell you when.

SARGENTSARCASM YOU ARE SO CLOSE TO FINDING OUT THE MURDERER! But it ISN'T who you THINK it IS. ;D


Zane walked through the corridors of (Castle Bleck JK JK JK!) the mansion looking for the murderer. Even though he despised what the person was doing he was threatened by him/her to protect their identity. He had to do this in order to save his AND friends lives. He remembered that stopped Zane before he left the room. The conversation repeated in his head as if it were a recording.

"Zane, are you ok? Where are you going?"

"I'm going to the local bathroom and if I'm not back by the time we pick teams I'll just meet up with you guys. After all I am a robot, I'll be able to use my GPS to located the team that is staying on this floor. You do trust me...right?"

"...Yes, but I can risk ANYONE ELSE dying. Especially when I'm already a witness for TWO murders. It depressing and I won't have someone your age die!"

"I thank you for your concern. Even if my father isn't celebrating with us I'm sure that we'll be able to trust in each other and come up with an alternative plan in order to crush that murderer!"

"Alright Zane. Just be careful and return back to us in one piece."

The truth is that he never saw that twisted person's face. The Nindroid already had suspects in his head. They were:

Kai

Ashley

Lloyd

Mrs. DemRoe

Amelia

Clover

Anne

Zane can under stand that people can be happy but not TOO happy. Ashley is too energetic and he could here Anne's screams from the 4th floor of the mansion Ashley is the same way but can fight her way through people and cause a hullabaloo in order to get something.

Kai...

It may be a year but that doesn't mean he started warming up to Garmadon. He may attack or never forgive Garmadon for what he did.

Amelia didn't like servant of the Mayor but is weirdly has a bond with Matilda, the Mayor's wife.

"HA! You have no idea."

She said it so bitterly and without emotion. You can tell that there was a hint of anger in her voice when she said that. No one likes being bossed around but then how did she earn the job of working for the Mayor? Taking care of his house and wife since he needs to travel. Did she know the responsibility of being a maid?

Not everyone likes the Mayor. Plus she could of been posing, waiting for the right moment to kill him in the dark.

Lloyd would never want to kill his father. But he knows the risk of using his powers for evil. Maybe he's just trying to pretend everything's right. After all he DID get into a big argument with him resulting in Lloyd shouting...

"SOMETIMES I THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER IF YOU WERE DEAD!"

Mrs. DemRoe comes from a rich family of agents. From spies to accountants but her parents were killed because of Garmadon's attacks. She's still rich and full of weapons...somewhere on her body. You never know...

"ZANE! OH MY GOSH WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG TO GET HERE, I AM GOING TO BEHEAD YOU!"

Zane's heart stopped and he fell onto his knees.

"I'm sorry but don't behead me." Zane pleaded.

"Fine, I cut the wire which leads the power into the Home Movie Theater so the team that is on that floor must have...TWO people dead."

"Yes and..."

"No one from that other team is dead."

"So..."

"I want you to kill Mrs. DemRoe. I don't have time for her spy business! Plus she could be watching us right now you never know! Plus one of those blasted scientist saw my face and I HAD to kill him with the left over remains...of that...wine bottle."

Zane looked at the murderer and sensed fear, "Maybe I could kill someone else instead of Mrs. DemRoe."

"Oh who? It CAN'T be Ashley because THAT already failed."

Zane took out his pistol and started to shoot the demented civilian that was standing in front of him.

"Why are you so mean? I did NOTHING TO YOU!...Until now."

The Murderer took out Misako's rifle and shot Zane in the stomach. Luckily it wasn't very effective.

"I am a robot if it hasn't come to your attention." Zane smirked

"OH MY GOSH I DON'T CARE!"

That was when Zane saw a knife in the hand of the figure.

"I don't like being easy on people or rough on the edges. You're just like Kai, stubborn and afraid to admit it. You failed."


a scream was heard out through the mansion.

Each team almost had a heart attack.

"Wait, which team has Zane on it?" Caroline asked.

Mr. Contelly sighed, Zane told me that he went to use the bathroom before the teams went our separate ways."

Then another scream was heard, louder than the first one.

"Oh gosh." Kai reached into his pocket, took pills from his pill bottle and popped two into his mouth.

"Oh my gosh you are a FAKER! THOSE ARE TIC-TACS!" Caroline said while slapping the Fire Ninja.

"Shoot."


Tsubaki rearranged the wires perfectly and managed to get the lights in the theater back on.

That's when Ashley smashed on of the Emergency Lockdown Glass and slammed her fist onto the button.

"What happened?" Cole questioned Ashley in an enraged tone.

"GARMADON'S DEAD YOU IDIOT!" She yelled with anger in her voice.

Everyone gather around Garmadon's lifeless body.

"Brother...this convict is smart yet skilled. He may be able to beat all of us." Sensei Wu spat out.

Ashley ignored Sensei Wu's comment, "Guys, we need to find this murderer ASAP. The Lockdown System will report to the police that something happened here. If they see all of these dead bodies they WILL arrest all of us."

"But...where's my Misako?" Nya asked.

"OH NO!" Ashley ran through the doors and ran back into the Wrestling ring to find a lifeless Misako.

"She's dead!" Matilda exclaimed in the calmest voice.

Ashley looked over at her team, "No mitts Matilda. If Misako and Garmadon are dead it may be a good thing to warn the other team to protect Lloyd at all cost. Especially that scream..."

"Wherever it came from we act now!"

That's when a big thump was heard.

"We can't go onto the 2nd floor!" Lara shouted.

"Why?" Nya questioned the redhead.

"Think about it. We may not have all the details we need in order to find out who the murderer is. Every window is shut, every door is sealed. Don't you see that no one can't trust anybody at the moment? If we go downstairs then the other team will get suspicious and will probably think that we can't trust him resulting in a fight that won't solve anything. In order to find out this murderer we must trust each other, not argue with them nor with each other. We promised them that we'll meet them in the Living Room when we're down to make our accusations. IF SOME PEOPLE THINK WE'RE DOWN THEN LEAVE." Lara explained.

Only Ashley, Lara, Matilda, Tsubaki, Clover, and Amelia stayed.

"Do they really think they have all the information they need?" Clover asked the fiver remaining team members.

"It doesn't matter." Ashley blurted. "I have a feeling that the murderer is closer than we think it is and I think the person and that loud thump had to be Zane. i saw him having a conversation with Mr. Contelly before all of us went up the stairwell."

Matilda gasped, "He ran into the murderer!"

Clover sighed, "Misako had to as well! Like seriously anyone could see THAT dirty outfit any where! She should of worn a nice yellow dress and..."

"CLOVER!"

"Sorry but I can't hide the truth!"


Team #2-Location: nd Floor-Swimming Pool

Black.

Black.

The smell of motor oil.

Mr. Contelly started to cry.

Zane was gone.

"I knew that I should of went with him! I warned him but he didn't listen!" He sobbed.

Caroline kneeled to the sobbing millionaire, "I think he ran into the murderer. Zane didn't have a knife he had a pistol."

Mrs. DemRoe turned around to see the rest of the team.

"HEY WHERE ARE YOU PEOPLE GOING?"

Lloyd smirked, "The rest of us found out who the murderer is. We'll meet you guys back at the Living Room!"

Then the three were left.
