The group had spent the last two days helping repair random things in the city and spending the nights at Ed and Edna's Scrap Yard. Nobody was getting much sleep; they were all still too wired from the Devourer. Any sleep that Artemis got was quickly interrupted by a nightmare.

Currently, she sat on a bench next to Lloyd, watching the ninja attempt to fix a large sign. Kai was complaining about having his elemental powers weakened while the other three actually did the work.

Nya soon appeared on her motorcycle, with Sensei Wu in the side car. The young woman explained that she had found a real estate agent who would be able to find them an apartment in the city. The two then left for a day trip filled with errands.

The ninja didn't protest when Artemis took control of the apartment hunt. They were slightly scared of the tiny teen because they believed that she was becoming a bit to trigger happy with hitting people with her crutch. In reality, she had only purposefully hit them twice. She had never meant to hit Cole on the back of his head.

Two hours later the group was looking at a somewhat decent apartment. It was small but it had two rooms, a functioning bathroom, and a kitchenette. Artemis was sure that they could make this work.

They were able to sign the lease and "move in" that day too.

Their luck seemed to be turning too; the previous tenant had left a couple of mattresses (which Artemis quickly claimed for her and Nya).

"Guys, we need food in the fridge." Artemis stated plainly, while standing in the kitchenette. "I'm going to go to the store."

"I'm going too!" Lloyd rushed over to her.

"Anybody else care to join?" She remarked, knowing that she wouldn't get anymore answers. Slowly, to her surprise, each of the ninja said they would be going too. Artemis raised an eyebrow at this. "Why?"

"Well we just think that it would be smart for you to have at least two of us with you. So, you know, you don't get kidnapped again." Jay answered, hoping that he wouldn't be whacked. Instead he got one of her death glares.

"I do not need a babysitter." She said darkly.

"Artemis, you have a broken foot, and a broken arm. We are going with you." Lloyd stated plainly, no room for argument in his voice.

She stared at the boy. Then she took a deep breath.

"Fine, let's go."

That was the weirdest trip to the grocery store ever.

When Garmadon and his newly acquired serpentine army reached the golden peaks, he was practically vibrating with excitement. He was finally going to get the power that he deserved.

He watched quietly as the weapons were pulled from his hand and joined with the molten gold below. The War Lord waited for what seemed like an eternity, but what emerged was not the Ultimate Weapon.

Four beings had emerged from the gold each holding a weapon. These were the Gods that had created them, and they were not happy.

"Did you really think we were going to let you have the Ultimate Weapon?" The man in the suit asked with a booming voice.

Garmadon was unable to answer, for the woman of white spoke before he could.

"You stole these from our champions. We should kill you." Her voice was as cold as a glacier.

Now he began to panic. He stuttered as he began to beg for forgiveness, but one again he was interrupted.

The god of fire smiled maliciously, "But you have a much worse fate in store, and why would we deprive you of it?"

They left not a moment later, in a flash of bright light, their weapons falling into the molten gold below, never to be used again.

Still trembling, Garmadon faced his army, "I have a backup plan."

He did not have a backup plan, but he was able to make them believe this for several months.

It may be short, but I am proud of this chapter! The part with Garmadon was my favorite part to write and honestly i just love messing with him because he is my least favorite character. The next few chapters will be total filler, because Gramadon can't mess with anybody, and then we get to go back to the main story and stuff.

Also I think I've gone mad with power because of who you people ship. I cant wait to crush all of your hopes and dreams.

I hope you enjoyed :D
