"Pfft hahaha haha hahaha!" Kai stood frozen in the middle of the courtyard as the ninja rolled about on the floor laughing at his failed attack. His face was covered in soot and his hair was sticking out in more places than usual.

"Wha... What just happened?" Lloyd asked as he tried (and failed) to keep his laughter in.

"I don't know. I tried to attack Cole with a fireball, and a gust of wind just blew it back at me!"

"I must say that is some bad luck Son." Kai looked over to the Monastery's entrance to see Maya.

"Mom!" The two siblings ran over to their mother and greeted her with a hug. "What are you doing here?"

"I've come to pick Misako up. She's asked me to help out at the museum. There's a class coming in and she needed help with the tour." Kai lead his mother into the monastery, the two chatting about recent things.

"Speaking about mothers, have you read those letters yet?"

"No, not yet..."

"You got a letter from Edna?" Cole yelled as he made his way over to the couple, slinging his arms over their shoulders. "Let me read!"

"No! Not from Ed and Edna. His real mom."

"Oh..." It fell silent as the atmosphere became awkward. "I'm gonna go... Play some video games."

The trio headed back inside the monastery, with Jay immediately heading to his room to grab the box hidden under his bed. He took the first letter and started reading, noticing the date it was sent.

Dear my darling Cliff...

I don't really know what to say. It's been more than a year since I last seen you and Jay. I have written to let you know that I am okay and that there's not a day gone by that I don't think of you both.

I miss you both greatly, and I wish to come back but I can't, and I don't know how long I'll be gone. I won't blame you if you decided not to wait for me and live your life with someone else, but please make sure our little blue Jay lives a happy life with the Walkers, and wish him a happy birthday for me.

Love, Libber.

Jay could feel his eye's filling up with tears as he read through the letters. Each and every letter was sent on one day each year, his birthday. The blue ninja remembered getting a card and a really expensive present from some unknown sender for his birthday every year up until his fifteenth, when he left to train with Master Wu. He now figured it was Cliff sending them.

Jay really wished he had punched Krux when he had the chance.

Whilst he did grow up happily with Ed and Edna, both his real parents had spent the last seventeen years knowing that they wouldn't be able to see him or each other again. Jay carried on reading the last letter, wiping the tears from his eyes.

Dear Cliff.

It's hard to believe it's been sixteen years already. I've already missed out on so much. I've missed out on Jay growing up, and I missed out on you become a big actor, like you said you wanted to be.

I have recently lost my elemental power, which could only mean Jay has inherited them, and has found his true potential. I hope he uses them responsibly, and doesn't get into too many fights.

Jay couldn't help but snort at the last sentence. He and the Ninja were fighting someone every other week.

I promise I will be back soon my love.

Love, Libber.

Jay stuffed all the letters back in the box, making a mental note to return them to Cliff tomorrow.

"Okay everyone, I want you to stick together, no wandering off and Don't. Touch. Anything!" Mrs Gorden said to her class, who were all standing outside the museum.

"Yes, we do not want a repeat of last year's field trip. Anyone caught being out of line will be sent straight home with a year's worth of detention." Mr Lancer added on, not wanting to pay thousands of dollars for a priceless artefact again.

"Is it just me, or has Mrs Gorden been tense since we arrived here?" Sam asked, noticing her teachers behaviour.

"I don't blame her. Any teacher would with Dash playing football with any vase in sight." Danny said, having heard the stories from previous field trips.

The class entered the building, seeing two woman, one with gray hair and the other with black, standing there to great them.

"Hello class. My name is Misako."

"And my name is Maya, we will be your tour guides for the afternoon." Maya looked at the class, and here eye's widened in shock as she recognised the teacher.

"Maya, isn't that... Libber?" Misako asked. Maya just nodded, unable to talk at the moment.

"Okay class, who here would like to see the hall of Hero's and Villains?" Hands went up as the group followed Misako further into the museum, leaving Libber and Maya behind.

"Maya... It's been a while" Libber said, the usually chatty woman finding a loss for words.

"It has... What happened to you? I heard you left Ninjago, but I didn't think you were leaving for good."

"It's hard to explain and we should probably catch up to the group. I'll catch you up on the way."

The two caught up to the class, with Libber explaining everything.

"It would've been fine if he was just threatening me, but Krux then started going after Cliff and Jay. He came so close to taking away my baby." Maya rubbed her sobbing friends back, remembering the pain of being taken away from Kai and Nya. At least she had her husband by her side.

" I'm not even sure it's me being here now."

" You, Cliff and Jay will be just fine Libber, trust me." Maya said trying to reassure her.

"Even if it is fine, Cliff and Jay wouldn't want to see me... I've been away for so long." Maya said nothing, but lead her to one of the exhibits. There Libber saw two statues of people she so badly wanted to punch.

Krux and Acronix - The Hands of time. The two were once the elemental masters of time and were apart of the Elemental Alliance. After attempting to betray them, the twins were stripped of their powers and one was banished into a time vortex. Krux then spent the next 40 years planning revenge, creating Vermillion Warriors and a device to go back in time. The two were, of course defeated by the Ninja and were once again lost in a time vortex."

"I have my own story to tell. A few years after you left, Krux came after me and Ray. He took us, and forced us to work for him for years, keeping us away from our children. But they were dealt with." Libber stared at Maya before looking back at the statue.

"Are they really gone?" Maya just nodded.

"But what if they come back from that vortex? Krux did it once, who's to say he won't do it again and come after me, or Cliff, or Jay?" Maya just laughed, having missed her friends rambling.

"I don't know about Cliff, but I am most certain Jay can take care of himself, especially if he takes after you."

The two carried on down the hall, keeping an eye on the class who were, thankfully, not getting into any trouble.

"All these villains... Who's been protecting Ninjago whilst we were gone?"

"Let's just say that Wu recently took on some new students." They eventually got the 'Hero' section of the exhibit, passing the statue's of the elemental alliance, bringing back memories for both the previous members, and came to a stop at the brightly coloured statue's.

Lloyd Garmadon - Son of Garmadon. The destined Green Ninja, the Master of Energy and the leader of the Ninja.

"Wait, Garmadon's kid was the Green Ninja?" Libber said, staring at the statue. He look so much like Garmadon, yet so different at the same time. She then looked over to the next two statues, both looking very familiar.

Kai Smith - Red Ninja and the current Master of Fire.

Nya Smith - Grey Ninja, current Master of Water and was the previous Samurai X.

"These your kids?"

"They are, and I couldn't be prouder. I just wished Krux hadn't got to us and made us miss out on our kids growing up."

"You and me both." They looked at the statue's of the other Ninja until the got to the final one.

Jay Walker - Blue Ninja and the current Master of Lightning.

"I- Is that my Jay? My little Blue Jay?" Libber could feel the tears once again as she stared at the statue. He was handsome like his father.

"You should go see them, Cliff and Jay. If you explain, I'm sure they'll understand why you've been gone so long." Libber just nodded and dried her tears. It was decided, she was going to see her Husband and Son for the first time in seventeen years.

"Seem's like Ninjago has it's fair share of trouble." Sam said as she looked around at the statue's of the many villains that had attacked Ninjago.

"Hey guys look at this." The group ran over to Danny who was looking at the statue looking a lot like their ghost friend. "Isn't that... Morro?"

Morro - The Master of Wind and former student of Sensei Wu. After finding out he wasn't destined to be the Green Ninja, Morro got upset and went to prove everyone wrong, but died during the process and his soul was sent to the cursed realm. Forty years later, Morro escaped the cursed realm wanting vengeance against his old Sensei, and possessed the Green Ninja Lloyd Garmadon. He then went to unleash the Preeminent, the living embodiment of the cursed realm, and other cursed souls onto Ninjago. They were later defeated by the Ninja.

"Morro was a villain?"

"I was afraid you'd guy's find out." They turned around to see said ghost floating behind them. Not knowing how to react, no one said anything and there was an awkward silence surrounding them.

"I know this probably looks very bad but I want you to hear me out before you judge me. I let my anger and hate get control of me, and I made a lot of mistakes, and hurt a lot of people. It's something I really regret doing, and I hope to make up for my actions, even if it takes me a thousand years. Although I understand if you wouldn't want me around any more..."

Danny walked up to the ghost and put his hand on his shoulder. "It's fine man, we've all make mistakes, and the important thing is that you want to make up for them. We all feel the same, right guys?" The others murmured in agreement.

"Yeah, and you saved our asses how many times?" Tucker added on.

"Thanks guys. Although you should probably catch up with the rest of the class."
