"How are you feeling, Ellie?" Lloyd asked as he watched her, Eleanor is currently picking at a piece of a small cake.
"I'm ok for now." She answers, while Shade huffed with his arms folded.
"Glad your feeling better, but did you have to try to bike off my hand?" He grumped, making both Tox and Griffin grin.
"That's what you get, for putting your hand in front of her while she's eating." Tox said.
"Don't mess a soon to be mother." Griffin added.
"Ok, guys." Lloyd said. "Let's focus back to saving our city."
From the corner of her eye, Chantal saw something and she moved from the table to walk over to one of the windows. She gasped as she saw the Sons Of Garmadon sneaking around the building.
"IT'S AN AMBUSH!" Dareth screamed out in warning, just as the glass from the skylight broke and fell just as some SoG members came sliding down ropes.
"Lloyd!" Chantal cried as a member came at her, she kicked him hard and he fell.
"Protect the base!" Lloyd yelled towards everyone, running over to Chantal. A few members started to advance on Chantal, she grabbed a metal chair, picked it up and threw it at them, knocking them down. Another member charged at her, only to be kicked in the side by Lloyd. "Love, are you ok?" He asked in concern as he faced her.
She smiles at him. "Yeah."
Lloyd gently took cupped her face. "After everything that's happened, because of me our city fell, and I broke your heart. You still came back. Why?"
She took his arms. "I never stopped loving you. And I hopped one day you would see reason. And Master Wu always said 'don't dwell on the past'."
"Hey, can you guys stop being Ken and Barbie until the SoG are thrown out of here?" William asked after he spin kicks a member.

Rainn held a pipe wrench tightly as she trembled and had backed herself into a corner as some members advanced on her. She swung the wrench at them, but one of them knocked the wrench out of her hands, making her gasp and back up even more.
Suddenly Dareth shoved his way through to stand in front of Rainn. "Sorry boys." He said. "Welcome to Brown Town." He holds up a hand that's emitting brown steam, shocking them. But suddenly he feels an urge. "Uh oh. Oh damn, not again!" He turns. "Hold that thought!" He then races out of the building.
"Dareth!" Rainn cried, watching him run, until Nya cartwheels in the air and drops in front of her. "Nya!" She smiled with tears.
"And welcome to my foot!" Nya swing kicks a member, knocking him into another and the two fall the floor. Nya turns to her friend. "Come on Rainn." She holds out a hand for her.
XxXxXxXxXxXx
Soon Lloyd and Skylor were back to back, she turns invisible making the member she was fight miss a punch before she reappears behind him and kicks him in the back, knocking him down.
"We're losing." Lloyd said while he watched Killow wearing the Mask Of Deception as he held Griffin by his legs and Shade high in the air while laughing.
"We need to endure." Skylor said as Killow walked away with the two Elementals.
"I missed you, Lloyd." Harumi said as she approached. Suddenly a pipe wrench slams into her side, knocking her down. "What!?" She hisses and turns to see Eleanor spinning the pipe wrench like a baton.
"That was for Cole!" Eleanor held up a hand, conjuring shard crystals and sent them flying at Harumi, who quickly dodged the shards. "That's for Kai!" She threw the wrench at Harumi, who ducked and the wrench clattered to the floor. Eleanor stretched her arms to her sides, her palms up as she conjuring more crystal shards and threw them all at Harumi. "That's for Jay and Zane!" She moves her arms up and conjures a large crystal. "And this." Eleanor holds the large crystal shard as it hovered above her. "This is for my father's building!"

Nya pushed a corner of a tarp to the side to reveal the armored vehicle. "You'll be safe inside." She told Rainn.
"Be careful." Rainn said as she climbed into the vehicle, then Nya quickly covered the corner again and hurried into the open again.
"PIXAL!" Eleanor cried as the Samurai mech fell as member pulls out some wires, causing it to shut down and fall to the floor with a loud crash and PIXAL tumbles out. Eleanor ran to help her.
XxXxXxXxXxXx
Inside the armored vehicle, Rainn gasped loudly in fright after a few moments when the hatch opened, but she soon calmed down as Lloyd climbed down the later, followed by Nya.
"We need to leave now!" Nya sat in the driver seat and started the vessel as Lloyd closed the hatch. "Hold on tight!" She slammed on the gas, and the vessel speeds forward as the tarp flies off and Ultra Violet jumps out of the way, the vehicle soon slams into Harumi, sending her flying back into a wall and the vehicle screeches to a halt where Skylor is helping Chantal to her feet. "Chantal, Skylor, Ellie, Will!" Lloyd called to them as the back door was open as the vehicle looks like an armed military tank. The four quickly rush inside, Lloyd quickly sees Misako. "My mother!" He watches as she grabbed from behind, and PIXAL kicks the member away. "We have to go back!"
"PIXAL! My sister." Eleanor cried, grabbing Lloyd's arm.
"You are what's important." Misako tells Lloyd, just before a different member grabs her from behind. "Go son!"
Karlof comes up behind the member who's restraining her, and grabs the member. "We will hold off!" He yelled to them. "Get Green Ninja to safe place!"
XxXxXxXxXxXx
The armed vehicle screeches to a stop outside, after breaking down one of the metal garage doors.
"Agh!" Dareth cried, running around the corner of the garage depot. "Wait for me!" He quickly jumps on and when the hatch opens, he falls head first inside.
XxXxXxXxXx
Inside the vessel, Lloyd places a hand on Nya's shoulder. "We can't just leave them." He told her.
Nya shook her head. "They aren't my concern." She steals a glance at him. "You are."
Dareth looks around the inside of the tank. "Oh ... this things has everything." He nods. "There isn't a bathroom in here, is there?"
"We aren't out of the woods yet." Nya said, ignoring the question, not seeing the bikers behind them in the mirrors.
"Uh, I know no one takes me seriously, but about that bathroom."-
"NO!" Nya and Lloyd yelled, both glaring at Dareth.
"Fine, I'll take it outside."
XxXxXxXxXx
Nobody knew that the last member was about to drop a sick of dynamite down the hatch, before Dareth opens the hatch and accidentally hits the member off the tank. Once the dynamite explodes, Dareth turns and to see where it went off and chuckled a little. "Don't worry, I took care of the last one. We're all clear." He then sees Garmadon on top of a building and quickly goes back inside the tank. "Spoke too soon."
Everyone looked at him confused.
Suddenly everyone in the tank heard the sound of a giant footstep.
"Did anyone else feel that?" Lloyd asked.
"We all did." Skylor said.
Nya looks into the mirror, seeing the Colossus. "We've got company!" She yelled, pressing harder on the gas. The giant beast continues to chase them and roars. But suddenly the Colossus jumps in front of them, surprising everyone in the tank. Nya quickly pulls a lever to reverse, while William pulls down the periscope and looks out to look at the giant beast. The Colossus runs after the tank as it drove backwards, after awhile, the Colossus raises it right foot causing Nya to scream, as the Colossus soon stomped on the tank, the tank is now trapped.
XxXxXxXxXxXx
Inside the tank, everyone stumbled or fell. Nya fell out of the driver seat as Eleanor fell into it, Dareth breathed heavily as they all look at the Colossus from the front windshield. "Uh, I don't need that bathroom anymore." He said, soon the Colossus started to crush the tank under it's foot.
"She won't hold!" Skylor yelled after some bolts started to come loose.
"Oh, yes, she will!" Nya yelled.
"Let us go, you ape!" Eleanor yelled as she slammed on the gas pedal. The tanks wheel moved forward, screeching and starting to smoke from burning rubber. "Let us go you, you freaking beast!" She yelled.
"We're pancakes!" Dareth cried, standing on Eleanor's left.
"Please, Dad. Don't do this." Lloyd said as he stood on Eleanor's right.
Suddenly, the Colossus lifted it's foot and the tank is freed.
"EVERYONE, HANG ON!" Eleanor screamed as the tank zoomed through the streets.

In the First Realm. Wu awoke with a gasp and sat up.
"Look who's up." Kai said with a smile as Wu stood up.
"And look who's got longer legs." Cole said with a smile as Wu stood up and Cole frowns. "Even as I'm saying that out loud, that's super weird, right?" He asks his friends.
"With his augmented growth cycle, that's actually quite normal for a young teenager." Zane replied.
"A teenager?" Jay asked. "Oh, now we're in for it!"
Wu just frowns as he looks down at the ground.
"What is wrong, young Master Wu?" Zane asked.
"I." Wu pauses for a moment. "I had a dream. I was fishing with my father."
"The First Spinjitzu Master?" Jay beamed, looking at him then to Cole, then back to Wu.
"And my brother was there."
"His memories are coming back!" Cole exclaimed.
Kai walked up to Wu. "Do you remember anything else?" The fire Ninja asked. "Anything your father said?"
Wu thinks for a moment. "Yeah. He said."-
Suddenly a harpoon comes between them, causing the Ninja to jump and back away as they all look around.
"Show yourself!" Cole yells as the Ninja pushed Wu behind them and pulls out their weapons.
Heavy Metal comes up to them with a harpoon on his shoulder, and aimed at the Ninja. "There is no escape. You are my prisoners now." His hands tighten on the handle of the weapon. "Is it true?"
"Is what true?" Cole questioned.
"What you said. He is the son of the First Spinjitzu Master. Is it true?"
Kai turns to Zane and Wu. "Don't tell him." The red Ninja whispered. "You remember what happened when they found out about our powers."
"I can hear you!" Heavy Metal fires a harpoon right in front of Cole's foot, scaring him as he yelps and jumps backwards.
"Yes! it's true!" Wu said, pushing between Kai and Zane. "I am the son of the First Spinjitzu Master. I am Wu."
In surprise, Heavy Metal drops the harpoon, before removing the device from his mouth, then removes the hat and armor to reveal a woman. "Then the legend is true." She said with shock and awe. "You have come back to take the Dragon Armor."
"Whoa!" Jay pushes his way through his friends. "Not what I was expecting!"
"You're Heavy Metal?" Kai asked her.
"That is my given Hunter name. My real name is Faith."
"Faith." Wu said thoughtfully. "All you need is faith."
"Please tell me." She places a hand on his shoulder. "Do you know where the Dragon Armor is?"
Wu thinks for a long moment, then takes a step forward, pointing in a direction. "That way."
Faith smiles. "Then we must go." She rushes over to the campfires and stomps on it.
"Go?" Zane asked. "Go where?"
"To the armor." Wu smiles.
"Iron Baron has his Hunters looking for you." Faith warns them. "And they never fail. The farther we get, the longer we'll live." She quickly takes off, heading up the sand dune.
"Yeah, Zane. We're going for the armor." Jay said as the Ninja watch Faith disappear from view. "Away from the man with the funny hat. That's a good thing."
"Sure." Kai said sarcastically and harshly. "Cause when has our Master ever led us astray?" He turns to Wu. "Why the hell are you leading us astray? You don't even know where the armor is."
"No. But I have faith."
"Oh. Faith." Kai sarcastically said, then nudges Jay, making him turn to him. "He has faith."
Faith soon comes back, pulling a speeder by a chain.
"Uh, how are we all gonna fit on that thing?" Cole asked.
"We aren't." Faith replied. "But it will hold our supplies. What it can't carry, we bury." She picks up her harpoon and comes closer to the Ninja. "Iron Baron cannot know I am helping you." She points the weapon at Jay.
"Yeah, yeah!" Jay stammered. "O-of course. Hehe. You secret's safe with us." He looks at the harpoon. "Now lower that giant rifle thing." He chuckles as Faith looks at it before throwing it into the speeder. "So." He nervously chuckles. "We have faith."
Kai turns to Wu. "I hope you know what you're doing."

In Ninjago. Lloyd is holding his Ninja gi. "Are you sure I have to do this?" He asks, turning to Nya, who walks up to him.
"I already got rid of the vehicle I spend forever building." She places her hand on his shoulder. "We need to destroy everything that can give us away."
Lloyd turns to look at his gi. "But this. This is who I am."
"That suit never made you what you are. It's what's inside of you. From here on out, we have to hide our identities. They'll be looking for us, and wearing our colors will only draw attention."
Lloyd turns to Eleanor, who's over by Skylor. He sighs as he turns back to the fire in front of him. "The Resistance never quits." He lets go of his gi and it drops into the fire, creating a green flame.
"Who's hungry?" Skylor asked as she, Dareth and Eleanor walk up to them with food. "Besides Ellie?" Skylor is wearing light gray overalls, a red shirt, an orange cap, and black boots that have a thick heel. Eleanor is wearing a white shirt under a classic jacket with angled seaming the color is a mauve blush, black jeans, her hair is pulled back into a French braid and black boots.
"You didn't steal that, did you?" Nya asked as she looks at the bag, but looks towards Eleanor after she let out a big burp.
"Oops." Eleanor blushed with her hands over her mouth, while Skylor looked amused. "Sorry."
Lloyd smiles at her. "It's ok, you're eating for two now. And in order to blend in, we have to try to not be ourselves." He looks at Dareth, who was slouching. "What's wrong Dareth?" He asks with a frown.
"He's upset cause Ellie ate all the puffy potstickers." Skylor answered for him with a smile.
"We don't have money." Nya told her.
"Oh, you're forgetting that she owns a noodle empire." Dareth replied.
"And there are still a few kind souls who are watching over us." Skylor said, turning to a nearby cart when an elderly couple with their granddaughter were, the three turned to them and waved.
While they spread the food around, Dareth sees some kids playing around a wrecked police car, a man lying in a trash pile as he drank, and another man is leaning against a dumpster.
"This place is kinda sketchy." Dareth said. "Are you sure we're safe here?"
"For the time being." Nya nods, taking a bite out of her food.
"What about our friends? My mother?" Lloyd asked.
"My sister." Eleanor added.
"The word on the street is that they were taken to Kryptarium Prison." Skylor answered.
"Garmadon's forces have that place pretty bottled up." Dareth replied. "And before you ask, no, I cannot use my Brown Power to break us in. Those abilities sadly flushed away." He turns to lean on a building.
"They'll be alright." Nya said, before turning to Lloyd. "But will you?"
"I already lost my powers. Now my friends? I couldn't protect them."
"It took us all by surprise." Skylor told Lloyd. "But we have to endure."
"Yeah, right." Lloyd said sarcastically. "Endure. Living in squalor with the rats, along with a pregnant woman." As he spoke, no one sees a rat coming up to them.
"Even those who have nothing find the will to carry on." Skylor said.
Dareth soon sees the rat and shrieks. "Rat!" He and the others turn and Eleanor screams, jumping high in the air and in a flash is in Lloyd's arms causing him to stumble backwards a little as he now carries her.
"Rat, rat, rat, rat." Dareth rants as he grabs Skylor's arm and shakes her, then let her go. "Rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat, rat!" He runs towards a nearby old mop and rushes up to prepare to strike the animal.
"Wait!" A familiar voice called from the rat. "Stop! Don't!"
That did it, as Eleanor soon faints while still in Lloyd's arms, and the side of her head hitting Lloyd's chest.
"Uh, is that rat talking to us?" Nya asks suspiciously as she leans to Lloyd.
"Yes, I believe it is." Lloyd looked at the rat, then to Eleanor.
"Oh, I'm sorry." The rat apologized. "Sometimes I forget how unnerving this can be." The rat soon glows and grows, surprising them before the glow fades to reveal someone very familiar. "Ah. Much better." She laughs.
"Mistaké?" Skylor asked.
"Y-you were just." Nya trails off.
"H-how did you do that?" Lloyd asked.
Mistaké looks at the bag in Lloyd's hand. "Ooh, food!" She swipes the bag from the blonde. "Ha-ha. I'm famished." She opens the bag.
"Heh. She made me pee my entire body weight." Dareth told them. "Don't you know she can do anything?"
"Perhaps now is the time to tell you all who I really am." Mistaké turns to them. "Or maybe after I eat."
