After Cole2 had calmed down, he joined the other nin jas in trying to locate the others. Although Cole2 claimed he was fine, Lloyd made sure to keep his distance. On the table in front of the ninjas, a holographic map of ninjago was shown. The ninjas needed to find out where Lloyd2 was hiding.
"Maybe in the Frozen Wastlelands?" Kai suggested.
"No. Too close to the skeletons and the Underworld." Jay2 said.
"What about the temple of fire?" Zane asked.
"The Fire Temple was destroyed long ago." Kai2 said.
"What about hiding somewhere in the desert?" Cole said.
"The Serpentine control all of the desert. They would've known if Lloyd was hiding out somewhere." Zane2 told him.
"There must be somewhere we're not looking. Something isn't right." Cole2 said.
"What if...What if they're not on Ninjago?" Lloyd asked.
Everyone turned their heads. Wu and Garmadon stepped into the room to join in the conversation.
"Lloyd's right. If they're not here then they must be off Ninjago." Wu said.
"That is most logical." Zane2 said.
"Yeah! If they're not here then they must be off somewhere else." Jay said.
"But where?" Garmadon asked.
"The Island of Darkness." Cole2 said.
A chill ran down everyone's spine at the mention of that cursed place. Even though the ninjas and Lloyds gained power their, it also uleashed terrible evils. Cole2 walked outside to the top of the mountain. Everyone followed him as they were back up into the monestary. Cole2 continued to walk until he was standing outside the doors, in the small training course.
Cole2 looked up and saw that the sky was all black. The moon was full and shining bright in the sky. It was slowly making it's way to the to the center of the sky as the time was approaching midnight.
"Cole?" Zane2 asked with the others behind them.
"What do you see there, brother?" Cole2 asked.
"Uh that would be the moon, Issac Newton." Jay2 joked.
"No, Jay, not just the moon. Hunter's Moon." Zane2 said.
"Uh, Hunter's Moon?" Kai said confused.
"Hunter's Moon. In ancient times the moon was meant to be used on nights of rituals and...Sacarifices." Sensei Wu said.
"Jay is the ship ready to leave?" Cole2 asked.
"Not yet. It still needs about few more ours of refueling. We drained a lot of gas when we dropped off the villagers." Jay said.
"You tell me as soon as it's ready." Cole2 said.
"You got it." Jay2 said.
The men all looked back up to the sky, before retreating back inside the monestary.
Back on the Dark Island, the women sat circled around inside their cell. Each of them were working on something very important. In the cent of them, small machine parts were laying on the ground. Nya had a few pieces in her hand as she was working with them.
"You girls sure you don't need these parts?" Misako asked.
"Oh no. They were just a few spairs that we don't need." PIXAL2 said.
"We should be fine." PIXAL said.
Both of the PIXALs removed small parts from their bodies so the Nyas could, hopefully, make a communicator. They were about halfway down with it when the door started to open. They all quickly turned their heads to the turning door knob. In a blink of an eye, everyone grabbed a few pieces from the pile and hid them behind their backs. The doors opened and two warriors walked in and saw the women "sleeping".
"Wake up!" One yelled hitting the bars.
They all "woke up" from their slumber and rubbed their eyes.
"Is there a reason you're waking us up in the middle of the night?" Misako asked.
"Lord Garmadon wants you all to come outside for the ritual." The second warrior said.
"What ritual?" PIXAL asked.
"You'll see." The first one smirked.
They opened the cell doors and slapped hand cuffs and chains to the women. One warrior was in front while the other walked behind everyone. Every now and then, the back warrior would push Nya to keep moving.
"Watch it!" Nya said.
The stone warrior growled at her. Before Nya did anything, Nya2 was able to stop her.
"Calm down, Nya. He'll get what's coming to him." Nya2 whispere din her ear.
They all continued to walk in a single file up the stairs. Eventually, They came to a door where the front warrior opened it. They continued to walk down a long hallway. They came to an end of the hall and were soon outside. Once there, the girls eyes all widened.
They were in some huge areana with thousands of the Stone Warriors and the Dark Matter creatures sitting down, all cheering. In the center of the areana was a olarge hole that was being filled up with Dark Matter. To the left of the women were a couple of Stone Warriors sitting behind drums. Above them all, Hunter's Moon was shining down right above the Dark Matter pit, which was now full.
"What kind of ritual is this supposed to be?" PIXAL2 asked.
"I'm not entirely sure." Misako said.
"Keep moving!" One of the stone warriors yelled.
They were marched back into a cage with locked doors.
"Another cell, how wonderful." Nya said sarcasticlly.
From another hallway, Lloyd2 walked in with Cyrus2 and another Stone Warrior right behind him. The crowd got quiet in an instant. Cyrus2 was carrying an old ancient book on his lap while the Warrior was carrying a large stick. All three of them walked up to the Dark Matter pit. The Stone Warrior sat down indian style at one end while Lloyd2 and Cyrus2 walked to the other end. Cyrus2 opened up the book.
"Are you sure this will work, Borg?" Lloyd2 asked.
"Of course I'm sure. After I gave my life to the Overlord, he wnated me to find a way to free him. I sent those disgusting bugs out on Ninjago in order to find what we needed. They brought me back this book and you were able to get all that we needed, Lloyd." Cyrus2 answered.
"Very well then." Lloyd2 said.
Lloyd2 turned his head to the drummers and gave a single nod. They started to beat on the drums.
"Bum...Bum...Bum...Bum...Bum..." The drums repeated over and over again.
The drums now gave the night more of an ominous and eerie noise to it. Lloyd2 then looked at the large crowd and nodded to them. The Stone Warriors and Dark Matter Creatures' eyes started to glow purple, blue, red and yellow in color. All their glowing eyes were pointed at the Dark Matter pit. Along with the moon's light, their eyes light were added to it. The Dark Matter quickly began to bubble and steam rose from it. Lloyd2 gave a final nod to the Stone Warrior in front of him, who started to stir the Dark Matter.
"Master, we are ready." Cyrus2 said aloud.
"Then begin." The Overlord2 said as he floated in from out of nowhere.
Cyrus2 cleared his throat as he looked down at the opened book.
"With Hunter's Moon and the Dark Army shinning upon the Dark Matter pit, we shall free our dark and evil master." Cyrus2 started.
"Free the Overlord?" Nya2 said shocked.
"This can't be happening." PIXAL said.
"Master, drop into the pit." Cyrus2 ordered.
The Overlord2 floated down and landed inside the Dark Matter. Now the Dark Matter was glowing a purplish orange color with the Overlord2 swiming in it.
"Now to begin..." Lloyd2 said.
Two Dark Matter creatures walked up. One carrying a box and the other carrying a bottle in their hands. One stood in front of the other as they reached the pit.
"Bones from a Skulkin warrior, taken to give shape to the master." Cyrus2 read aloud from the book.
The first Dark Matter creature opened his box and dumped out it's contents. Inside were a few bones. When the bones fell inside, the Dark Matter began to sizzle. The first creature closed his box and walked away.
"Venom from a Serpentine, taken to give blood to the master." Cyrus2 read.
The second creature opened the bottle and poured the venom into the pit. Again, the Dark Matter sizzled when the venom touched. The second creature walked away in the same direction as the other one.
"Flesh from...the servent,willingly...s-sacrificed to give l-life to the master." Cyrus2 read as he rose his left arm to Lloyd2.
Lloyd2 saw Cyrus2's shaking arm and smriked. Lloyd2 then pulled out a knife and cut off Cyrus2's arm, which fell in the pit. Cyrus2 screammed in pain while the girls covered their eyes at what they just witnessed. Lloyd2 dropped the blood stained knife as Cyrus2 tucked his bloody wound under his right armpit.
"Blood from the enemy, forcibly taken to reconstruct the master." Cyrus2 said.
This time, Lloyd2 pulled out the small vial that contained Lloyd's blood from his pocket. He opened the top and poured the red blood into the Dark Matter. Smoke rose in the shape of a skull when it made contact.
"And now, dark powers added to give the master strength!" Cyrus2 continued to read.
Lloyd2 blasted the Dark Matter pit with his green energy blast for about ten seconds. THe Dark Matter splashed and boiled as Lloyd2 added his energy.
"Now with the bones, venom, flesh, blood, and power added to the Dark Matter, and the light from the army and moon shining down on us, I command the Overlord back to our world!" Cyrus2 yelled.
The army and Cyrus2 were ready to expect their master while the women in the cell were absolutely terrified. The Dark Matter was splashing and boiling around in the pit. A few drops escaped th epit and landed on the ground. The colors from the lights shone bright to a near burning light. Everyone that was sitting rose from their seats when...
Nothing happened.
The Dark Matter had calmed down. Everyone was confused. The army was looking at each other, the drummers stopped playing, the Stone Warrior at the pit stopped stirring it, Lloyd2 and Cyrus2 were in shock, and the women in the cell couldn't help but smile.
"Master?" Cyrus2 called out.
There was no response.
"What happened?" Lloyd2 asked.
"I don't know." Cyrus2 said.
"Where's the Overlord?" Lloyd2 asked again.
"I don't know." Cyrus2 said again.
"Why isn't he here?" Lloyd2 asked.
"I DON'T KNOW!" Cyrus2 yelled.
"Watch your tone, Borg." Lloyd2 said.
"You are no longer my master. You think I'm not angry by this? I gave up my arm to bring him back and the Overlord's not here! We must've missed something." Cyrus2 said.
Lloyd2 growled some and balled his fists.
"Keep shining!" Lloyd2 told the army.
They did as they were told.
"Keep playing!" Lloyd2 said to the drummers.
They continued to bang their drums.
"Keep stiring!" Lloyd2 told the Stone Warrior at the end.
The Stone Warrior kept stiring the Dark Matter.
"Check the book, we must've missed something." Lloyd2 told Cyrus2.
Lloyd2 knealt down to Cyrus2's height and looked through the book. Both of them skimmed through the pages and mumbled the words as they went. Page after page, word after word they both read. Although it seemed like they did everything, they clearly missd somthing.
"Wait! Go Back!" Cyrus2 said.
"What?" LLoyd2 said.
"The page! Turn the page." Cyrus2 said.
Lloyd2 turned the page as he was told.
"There, you see?" Cyrus2 said pointing to a paragraph with his bloody stump.
Lloyd2 read the paragraph to himself. When he was finsished, his eyes widened. Lloyd2 turned his head to Cyrus2, who did the same. They looked at each other for a minute before both of them started to laugh.
"How could I have been so foolish?" Lloyd2 laughed.
"This mistake is on both of us, Lloyd." Cyrus2 also laughed.
After they stopped laughing, Lloyd2 cleared his throat and adressed everyone.
"Most of you might be wondering where the Overlord is. Well so am I. We had mad a mistake when preparing this so he is not with us now." Lloyd2 started.
Lloyd2 then started to walk around the Dark Matter pit.
"But we know what it is we did wrong. You see, it is not a true dark ritual without a sacarfice." Lloyd2 said.
Lloyd2 stopped walking when he reached the other side and was in front of the sitting Stone Warrior. Lloyd2 looked ahead at the girls in the cage and smirked. They all huddled together fearing that Lloyd2 was about to come for one of them.
"Yes, what this needs is just a little bit more...body." Lloyd2 smiled evily.
In a flash, Lloyd2 kicked the sitting Stone Warrior from behind and he fell into the pit. This time, the Dark Matter went crazy. It rose from out of the pit and spashed around when it went back inside. A black smoke rose from it and everyone was cheering. Lloyd2 looked up and saw the clouds cover up the full moon. When the moon's light disappeared, the Stone Army's eyes dimmed down. The Dark Matter then became still and everyone watched as it was still bubbling. Lloyd2 had walked back over to Cyrus2 and a few soldiers walked up to them.
THe Dark Matter start bubbling and everyone was looking at it. They feared the worst when nothing happened, but that soon stopped.
A black skeleton had rose up from the Dark Matter that made everyone jump. The skeleton hand grabbed onto the ledge of the pit and started to pull. As something else was rising from inside, a thick black substance covered the skeleton hand. Almost as it were skin. Another hand rose up and also grabbed the ledge Very soon, the Overlord2 had pulled his upper body out of the pit.
"Go help him." Cyrus2 ordered the Stone Soldiers.
"No." Lloyd2 said stopping them. "Let him do it himself."
The Overlord2 pulled the rest of his body from the pit and stood up. Dark Matter dripped from his body and fell back into the pit. The body that stood in front of everyone had no features. It was just a plain black colored body.
The arms then out stretched and black cloth hanging from the walls, pieces of gold lying around, and an old helmet flew towards the body. It all circled around the body as each part did something different. The cloth grew in size and shape. Designs were added to it and the clothing soon attached itself to the body. The gold pieces melted in mid air that soon came together had made a shape. The shape was shoulder armor with spikes on it that went on the shoulders. The helmet turned black and also started to recontruct it shape. A hand fell grabbed the helmet and held it. The face on the body opened up a dark red color filled up the eyes and sharp teetch filled the mouth. A smile formed on his mouth as he put the helmet on his head. The Overlord2 had returned.
"I...Am...Free!" The Overlord2 yelled with his army cheering.
