"There it is." Lloyd says as the group stops at a large glacier.

"What are we waiting for?" Akita asks as she and Alexis shift to their human forms.

"It's gonna be dark soon. We'll have a better chance of crossing the glacier by daylight." Lloyd says as he looks at the sky.

*Timeskip*

"When you have rescued your friend Zane what will you do?" Akita asks as the group is sitting around a lantern.

"Go back to Ninjago if there's a way. What about you?" Lloyd asks.

"I will return to my village. I want to try and rebuild what I can. As for my sister I do not know." Akita says.

"I don't know honestly. The forest has been my home long before I met Akita. I will likely return to it." Alexis says.

"What do you mean?" Lloyd asks as he looks at Alexis.

"Just outside thoughts. Nothing more." Alexis says nervously.

"Lloyd: Well maybe you can come with us!" Lloyd says as Alexis looks at him.

"You don't want me there. Trust me. Besides I'll be alone. I doubt there are any there like me. I'd much rather be where I feel at home. Though that isn't really anywhere. But the forest is all I've known." Alexis says as she looks down.

"You wouldn't be alone! You'd be with us! We have a really cool Monastery, video games, a hot tub. Uh there's just these chickens you have to watch out for." Lloyd says as Alexis chuckles.

"It's a nice thought Lloyd but it's wishful thinking. I'm gonna go for a walk." Alexis says as she stands up.

"Be careful sister." Akita says as she looks at Alexis.

"I know. I won't be long. Try to get some rest. Both of you." Alexis says before she shifts to wolf form and walks off.

*Timeskip*

"Oh mom. I really miss you. I miss everyone." Alexis says as she is sitting a ways away from the others as they are resting.

"Hey. Care for some company?" A voice asks revealing to be Lloyd.

"Lloyd? I thought you were asleep?" Alexis asks.

"I was but couldn't sleep. I figured you would of come over by now." Lloyd says.

"I just wanted to be alone is all." Alexis says.

"Something on your mind?" Lloyd asks curiously.

"Nothing. Nothing at all." Alexis says.

"Really now? Is that why you said you miss somebody?" Lloyd asks as he sits beside Alexis.

"You heard that huh?" Alexis asks nervously.

"Just a bit. You miss your village?" Lloyd asks.

"Yes but it's not just them." Alexis says as she nods.

"What do you mean?" Lloyd asks.

"I miss my pack Lloyd. I'm adopted." Alexis says as she looks at Lloyd.

"I kind of figured. Some things with you and Akita didn't add up where your past was the subject. But I know that feeling. I was alone for a long time as a kid." Lloyd says.

"I know. You told us. But you wouldn't understand. It's not the same." Alexis says.

"Oh no? Try me." Lloyd says.

"My pack is dead. They're dead because of me. They died protecting me when I was a child. All because I was different my family was attacked." Alexis says sadly.

"I didn't know. I'm so sorry." Lloyd says as he gives a sympathetic look.

"Don't be. I don't want pity." Alexis says.

"I'm not pitying you. But I know what it's like to feel at fault. I know what pain is like. It either makes you or it can break you." Lloyd says.

"And with me it's just broken me. I see no reason to fight anymore." Alexis says.

"I don't believe that." Lloyd says.

"Huh?" Alexis asks as she looks at Lloyd.

"You fight beside Akita. She's your family now. Just like the other ninja and my sensei are mine. You find reasons to fight in those you care about. Even if you may not think you have one you do." Lloyd says.

"But what about my family? It'll never bring them back." Alexis says sadly as she looks down.

"Maybe not but I know they'd want you to keep living on. Don't waste the chance they gave you. Make that chance worth the sacrifice. I know it's easier said then done but it's worth it. I promise." Lloyd says as he places his hand on Alexis's.

"Thank you Lloyd. I needed to hear that." Alexis says as she smiles softly at Lloyd.

"Oh heh. You're my welcome." Lloyd says while blushing.

"And just for the record I'm not sure what was going through Harumi's mind when she betrayed you but I think she was a fool to. Though I understand that pain as well. I have had my share of heart break too." Alexis says.

"Thanks. It's nice to hear someone who gets that." Lloyd says.

"Huh?" Alexis asks as she shifts to wolf form and sniffs the air.

"What is it?" Lloyd asks as he sees Alexis sniffing the air.

"Something is coming. Akita get up! Something's coming!" Alexis shouts as Akita quickly wakes up in wolf form growling before Lloyd jumps into the mech before the group sees the dragon Boreal and quickly hide by the wall as it flies by.

"Phew. That was close." Lloyd says in relief.

"No. It's coming back." Alexis says in alarm.

"Akita, Alexis get behind me!" Lloyd shouts as he blocks the ice attack from the dragon only to get surrounded by ice.

"Lloyd! No!" Alexis shouts as she and Akita run over and try to get to Lloyd while dodging attacks from the dragon before Lloyd gets out of the ice and begins fighting the dragon only for them both to crash near by.

"Lloyd!" Akita shouts as she sees Boreal is about to freeze Lloyd.

"Come on!" Alexis shouts as she and Akits run over andn try to help only to get kicked away as Akits hits a wall while Alexis is thrown harshly at the ground.

"Akita, Alexis!" Lloyd shouts as Boreal begins to carry him off.

"Lloyd!" Alexis shouts as she tries to get up and follow only to collapse and fall unconscious.

*Timeskip*

"Sister! Sister wake up!" A voice shouts as Alexis wakes up and sees Akita.

"Akita?" Alexis asks as she sits up.

"Are you alright?" Akita asks.

"I'm fine. It took him." Alexis says sadly.

"Don't worry. We aren't giving up. Come on. Well take on the Emperor and free Lloyd." Akita says.

"Right." Alexis says as she stands up and runs off with Akita.
