The next morning, Eve went to go clean the training room again. Some of the students decided it would be fun to TP the whole room even though they promised that they would behave from now on.
When she was finished, the ninja came in just in time for their daily training.
They walked past Eve. "Hey Eve, your hair looks pretty." Lloyd complimented, Eve was confused. Lloyd never talked to her like that. Not just with her but with any girl. "Uh thanks?" Eve said unsurely,
Later, the gang got the signal that there was a robbery at the bank and that they needed to go and stop it. But when they got there, Lloyd used his golden power kind of ruthlessly and hurt the robber. Eve was still confused.
Finally, Eve was changing another one of Dylan's diapers when Lloyd was walking by the room. Lloyd noticed her changing Dylan and walked into the room. "Hey Eve, want me to throw that bag of diapers out for you?" Eve was super confused now. "Uh okay, do you wanna take it out?" She asked,
Lloyd took the bag and said, "Absolutely!" "Anything for a pretty girl like you." He walked out of the room and it was official. Eve was totally freaked out now. None of this sounded like Lloyd at all...she knew something must be up. She went into the room where the rest of the ninja were watching T.V. She walked over to the television and turned it off in the middle of their program.
"Hey we were in the middle of watching that!" Jay complained, "Guys, we've got a problem." Eve said, "What kind of problem?" Kai asked, "Haven't you guys noticed that Lloyd's been acting weird lately?" Eve asked the guys, "No not really." Kai said, "Think about today." Eve said, "Lloyd wasn't acting like himself. He used his golden power to hurt someone." Eve said, "So? The robber guy was a villain." Kai said, and twice he told me I was pretty." Eve said, "Okay that's really weird." Kai said, "Yeah." Eve said, "I think we should talk to Sensei about this."
"So, Lloyd has been acting really weird and we don't know why." Eve said, Sensei walked around the room while Garmadon looked at a large book. Sensei walked by a window and looked out it. "Weird how?" Sensei asked stroking his beard, "Well, he told me twice today that I'm pretty." Eve said, "That's not weird ." Sensei said, he's probably taking a liking to you..." "Lloyd may think I'm a good friend, but he has never called me pretty...even if I asked him if I was." Eve said, "Is there anything else weird about him?" Sensei asked, "Well, he seems a little too cheery..." Eve said, "Like, he's not his usual cranky self. Which sucks because that's how I get most of my comic relief out of him." Eve said giggling, "It's as almost as if he's possessed..." "Possessed?" Sensei said curiously, "Yeah, possessed." Eve said, Sensei walked over to the table where Garmadon was still staring at the very large book. "Lloyd sounds like he is 'possessed' you say?" Sensei said, "Yes." Eve said nodding, "Do you know what's wrong with him?"
The two elders looked at the book and then looked at each other. "This is a book of all the people that have been sent to the Cursed Realm..." Sensei explained, "What about it?" Eve shrugged, "Well, when someone is banished into the Cursed Realm, their name gets added to the book. When someone gets out of the Cursed Realm, their name vanishes from the book..." "And we just noticed that one of the captives has escaped..." "Who's that?" Eve asked,
"His name is Morro...He was a elemental master so long ago..." Sensei said, "He was the first master to do Airjitzu..."
"AIRJITZU?!" The gang all said together, "Yes, and it is said that he was also capable of possessing people and gaining control of their minds..." Sensei explained, "So do you think it was Morro who possessed him?" Eve asked,
"It could be possible..." Sensei said, "Well is there a way to make him 'Unpossessed?'" Eve asked, "So far we don't know..." Sensei said, "But why would he possess Lloyd? What has he ever done to him?" Eve asked, "For now we keep this under wraps and do not let Morro know we're onto him..." Sensei said,
"About what?" A voice said, the gang turned to see Lloyd standing in the doorway totally looking like himself.
Everyone was silent, "What's going on?" Lloyd asked, "Come on guys, I hate it when you don't tell me stuff."
Everyone continued to stare, "Eh, Nevermind." Lloyd shrugged, then walked down the hall.
"Funny..." Eve said, "That sounded just like Lloyd..."
"Maybe Morro is currently not possessing him..." Jay said,
"Could be..." Eve said, "But we better continue to investigate to be safe..." "If he really is possessed, then things could get ugly..."
Oh no, What are the guys going to do? and will they be able to unpossess Lloyd? Stay Tuned.
