After the collapse of the serpentine base, the ninja head outside. Angered at the events that just happened, Kai starts to rant about what had happened

"What now... What do we do now?! Jay is gone and he has the Fangblades, the Serpentine escaped!" Kai angrily asks.

Kai paces back and forth, angered at the turn of events that had transpired. Sensei Wu goes up to Kai, trying to calm him down.

"Calm yourself Kai, even though we may have lost one of our own, we still may be able to bring him back. Even though the battle is lost, the war still rages on." Wu explains, putting his hand on Kai's shoulder.

After regrouping with Garmadon and the Skulkin, they all discuss what happened.

"I know we may have been at conflict in the past, but we all appreciate your help." Wu says with gratitude.

Kruncha and Nuckal both look at the Ninja and Wu, Kruncha says, "Oh yeah it was nothing, we just dont want these stupid snakes to win."

"Yeah, and if it weren't for my awesome skills in battle we wouldn't have won." Nuckal says arrogantly

Kruncha sees this blatant lie and looks over to Nuckal saying, "It wasn't because of just you bonehead."

They then start to argue, Garmadon steps aside over to the ninja.

"So it seems that there has been a betrayal amongst your own... heh if only." Garmadon says with a smirk.

Kai turns around to Garmadon, with an angry look he says, "What's that supposed to mean?!"

Garmadon's smirk continues to grow, he walks over to Kai saying, "Well maybe you of all people should have seen it coming since you were distrusting of me, I mean look at how he was acting prior to all of this." Garmadon says, making a point.

Kai, filled with rage, was not having any of it, went face to face with Garmadon.

"Ive about had it to here with you Garmadon, I have had valid reasons not to trust you, look at all that you did, especially earlier, when you tried to steal vital information. Without the power to wield all four of the golden weapons you are nothing but a man with goal to conquer Ninjago that you would possibly never achieve." Kai says fumming.

Garmadon, now his smirk turning into a furious frown, starts to stare down Kai. The others start get closer to try and pry them apart.

"Oh so you want to use those kind of words huh? Well the only reason you wanted to be the green ninja in the first place is because deep down you know you are nothing but a normal man as well, I know deep down you only wanted to be the green ninja for the glory, the fame and the respect that it would seemingly give you. You may be a ninja but without that sword you have, YOU ARE NOTHING. Without my brother Wu, you'd just be another unremarkable blacksmith in the back ends of a small village." Garmadon says, chewing into Kai.

Furious about what Garmadon just said, he clenches his fist. Just as a fight is about to break out, the ninja try to pull apart them apart. Wu goes in front of Kai trying to calm him down.

"Kai, please... as much as you'd like to fight Garmadon, there are bigger things to worry about." Wu said, trying to calm Kai down.

Kai then stares at Garmadon, giving off the impression that he was watching him closely. Confused, Cole asked, "Jeez, whats their problem?"

Wu then takes cole aside and starts to explain what was going on between Kai and Garmadon


Meanwhile, Pythor and the Serpentine had made their way to the City of Ouroboros, making it their new base of operations for the time being, Pythor and the other Serpentine generals have a discussion on the events that unfolded.

"So what will we do now Pythor? now that the Ninja have the fangbladesss?" Skales asks, concered about the future of their plans

Pythor looks over to Skales, stroking his chin he says, "Who said the Ninja had the Fangblades? I saw the blue one run off with them, there is no doubt he will make his way over here and give it too us."

Acidicus, confused, interjects into the sentence asking,"What do you mean by "give it too us" Pythor? Did you make a deal with him?"

Pythor starts to get a little annoyed, slithering over to the Venomari General.

"Yes I did make a deal with one of the Ninja might I add, he said he'd give us the Fang blades in return for shared control of Ninjago once we release the Great Devourer." Pythor explains

And what if he doessssn't?" Skales asks.

The Anacondrai and Serpentine Leader starts to ponder about the certain possibilities that could happen. Pythor then interjects, denying any kind of possibility that could happen

"Impossible, That ninja made a vow, a vow he must not break and if he does, he will know pain beyond his wildest dreams!" Pythor aggressively claims.

Pythor then slithers away, leaving the Serpentine Generals to discuss among themselves on what the next course of action.

Later on that day back at the Destiny's Bounty, the Ninja along with Garmadon, Lloyd, Sensei Wu, and Nya all arrived back after the battle below in the Underground Serpentine Base. Now discussing what to do after Jay's betrayal.

"I still can't believe Jay would do this, I just don't understand any of this, I loved him and if only I could've done something to help him." Nya said, heartbroken at the circumstances that occurred.

Kai went over to his sister, comforting her saying, "I know sis, if only we knew what was the cause of these turn of events."

Wu then interjected into the conversation, cryptically saying "We all must not fret at these turn of events, for one cannot turn the tide of an outcome if the seeds of it have already been planted in the past, unforeseen."

Kai looks over to Wu, with a confused look on his face.

"But Sensei, what is that even supposed mean?" Kai asks

Zane, knowing what Wu had meant, explains, " I think I know... remember Jay had pricked by that serpentine skeleton, thats the key to his madness! The Fangpyre venom slowly consumed him and a new, evil personality arose."

Feeling dumb and disappointed that they didn't see it earlier, the ninja come to an understanding that it was their fault for Jay succumbing to evil. Kai feels even more at guilt at the situation.

"No guys, it was all on me. I was so focused on becoming the green ninja, to prove myself as the best that I lost sight of the issue that was brewing in the background. My arguments with Garmadon didn't help either." Kai says, trying to take all the blame.

Wu comes in, trying to help the ninja not worry he tells them," Do not blame yourselves for what happened to your fallen brother, his fall to villainy was attributed the very evil that happened to my brother Garmadon. Now we must not stay down on this occasion, but we must rise up and become better than ever!"

This speech given by Wu gives a boost to all their morale, helping them feel better about the current situation.

"Wu is right, we must not let this get us down. we must continue on and get our friend back!" Zane says.


Meanwhile in an abandoned building in the outskirts of Ninjago, the now self professed Kilton Colovia has taken it as a base of operations to commence his grand scheme.

Going through the abandoned space saying, "This place in time will make an adequate headquarters.

Continuing throughout the place he sees a mirror on the ground, looking disgusted at his old blue garb that he currently has equipped on himself.

"But for now I must look for a more... suitable outfit." he says looking into the mirror.

Looking through some crates, he finds one with some clothing in it. After searching through it, he finds some clothing appropriate for his new tastes. A black kimono with purple accents, a black cape with purple on the inside, a purple belt with a gold buckle, dark grey slacks, black leather boots and black leather gloves. After putting these all on, he goes to the mirror, looking into it feeling satisfied with his new look he says, "This is a dawn of a new era! Jay Walker is no more, there is only Kilton Colovia!"

Jays transformation into Kilton was complete, whatever semblance of his old life was now gone and the beginning of his new life; The true beginning of Kilton Colovia, and the beginning of his grand scheme. After all was said and done, Kilton Colovia began his search to combine the fang blades to make the ultimate weapon.


AN: Hey everyone, Excal here, I'm finally back from my writers block which definently didn't take around 2-3 years. Id like to thank everyone for the support the story has gotten, I never expected this amount of support to continue a story seeing as how I was burnt out on making these stories for Ninjago. Hopefully I wont suffer another burnout that lasts this long, because I want to continue this story that I started back in late 2018. Anyways, take care y'all, Excal out.
