The Masks of Garmadon
Side Note : If you actually want to read the chapter go ahead, the text that covers these parts right here are just review responses, so if it isn't a response to your review, you don't need to read it.
ItsYoGreenGirl ( Chapter 7 ) : Nope Ronin's still around, but not for long, and like the story stated, who knows what Eric, Alex, Siddie, and Richard did with their lives, but I guess that chapter really states it, and yes, Garmadon's Plan was to use the Masks to turn the Young Ninja's Parents Evil, but with them dying one by one, and thanks to Kai, Garmadon's dead too, so now Killow's really the one trying to keep the group under control.
ItsYoGreenGirl ( Chapter 8 ) : Hutchins is alive and well, and you'll have to wait and see about Lloyd and Harumi, and Lydia and Charlie are cute, that's for sure, but what happens to them, could very well tear them and their families apart, and yes Lydia will do anything to get Lloyd back, and if that means standing beside her Mother's Old Comrades, then she'll do it, especially not because of her "Relationship" with Charlie, but her bitterness and anger towards Kai for starting this whole mess, and yea that's perceptive thinking Lydia's The Quiet One. . .
ItsYoGreenGirl ( Chapter 9 ) : Yea, Montgomery and Lydia are Twins, and when they were younger, they were completely inseparable, and enjoyed their time with Harumi and Lloyd, and yea Killow saying such was another reference to Civil War, when in order for everybody to win a battle, some of them have to lose it. You're right when Lydia's Pain is what drove her to Vengeance, Anger, Bitterness, and above all else Agitation towards Kai and Charlie, for killing Garmadon, and not saving her family, because with Montgomery going around Ninjago so much over the past here for his dream, he wasn't there for his sister, and that made them slightly bitter towards each other as well. . .
ItsYoGreenGirl ( Chapter 9, Part 2 ) : It's True when Liv can't hurt her own niece, and she could understand Lydia wanting her parents back, because they meant the most to her, the same she did to them, and it is harder for Liv to try and protect Lydia, when Lydia is going through the same thing she did, and not only that, but Lydia's wrath against Kai is not only hurting those around her, but hurting herself, and yes Ray's Mood on The Amber's Grace shows at his age, he's tired of fighting, but for Maya, it's the other way around, not wanting to loser her Grandchildren at their young age, even if Kai and Nya aren't enough help, she'll be the one standing beside them, and yes, if Kai dies, or kills somebody else, his Idiocy is the main cause.
ItsYoGreenGirl ( Chapter 9, Part 3 ) : Oh, Perceptive of you right there, you'll see the answers to that in time, so far only Lloyd's the one Confirmed Dead, Harumi and Misako are still Presumed Dead and Missing, and the one lurking in Princess Lydia's Shadows, will be revealed in time, but if it isn't revealed to Lydia before she decides to try and bring her parents back, then she could have a problem, but who was following her, and who wrote the note, I will say that note came from two people, not just one, but you'll see who did that in time, and I will say, One of them is close to Charlie, while the other is close to Lydia. . .
ItsYoGreenGirl ( Chapter 10 ) : Lydia's Motives have and still are driving Kai's Madness, and with Lloyd closer to the Dragon side, it may keep his Oni side from taking over if Lydia resurrects him, and if he is evil, Lydia has Creation for a reason, and she could use her Creative Powers instead of Destructive to open the rift to the Departed Realm, keeping the evil inside, and thanks for that, I'll keep that in mind when it comes down to fighting for the Oni Masks, because while they have almost all the Masks, once they do get the Masks, that's not the hard part, it's the Resurrection, and I agree when you say bringing Lloyd back is worth the risk, especially if Harumi and Misako are just waiting for the right moment, rather than stopping Lydia in the middle of her plan, and Kai needs to remember the anger and pain he sent through Lydia, because he killed Garmadon, and Lydia can't just let that go since she had moments with him before ( And No, I wasn't talking about Borg Tower ) if Lydia has any chance to bring her Father back, she can and will take it. . .
Chapter 11 : Grandchildren of Garmadon
Last Time on The Masks of Garmadon : Eric sent The Formlings' Princess to get The Young Ninja back to Ninjago, while he took Alex's Flying Speeder and left them ( Again ). . . with Lydia talking to Montgomery and Alizah about bringing Lloyd back, and when Lydia says she needs to say sorry to Lloyd, Montgomery asks his Twin Sister why, and she decides to tell them, Charlie included, about how and why she needs to say sorry to Lloyd, and after hearing that happened while he was away, Montgomery couldn't be mad at his little sister anymore, and Charlie, while she's she he got less mad, he still wasn't over his anger just yet, Killow then brought Lydia up to the War Room, and The Oni's Mercenaries were talking about their plan, since every one of them has a parent dead, and are planning to assist the Sons of Garmadon, in return, they have to bring Jay, Cole, Queen Akita, and Morro back.
A Short time later, Liv arrives with Brenden with him unconscious and after they wake him, Brenden talks about the locations of the remaining four Oni Masks, with the team then splitting up to recover the Masks. . . Richard, Liam, and Alizah head to Borg Tower for the Mask of Ferocity, while the others keep Charlie locked up as they head to The Masks of Greed and Brutality, and Brenden knows exactly which old friend can help him. . . Queen Vania.

February 21st, 10:08 a.m.
"I'm really starting to lose my patience, and Nya and my parents are fools if they think i'm leaving this be especially after what happened to my Son. Lydia, Liv, and the rest of the Garmadon's grandchildren can not be trusted, and they mustn't ever reunite the Masks, I don't care if Liv's the only family Lydia has left, or if her parents are dead, there's no excuse for her level of Madness."
The Young Ninja arrive at The Police Station, and were hoping to talk with Commissioner Stevens. . .
Maya : Hey Jimmy.
Jimmy : Oh Well, if is isn't the Young Ninja, the Ninja, and the Parents of the Ninja, to what should I owe the pleasure.
Nya : How about moving out of the way so we can speak with the Commissioner.
Jimmy : He's not seeing anyone.
Nina : Screw that.
Nina fired up her powers, and knocked out the officer to get inside the Office.
Kai : Commissioner, we gotta talk.
Commissioner Stevens : Does it have anything to do with Killow?
Nya : Partly yes, why?
Commissioner Stevens : Because Killow's actually been pardoned from his crimes.
Kai : What, Why?
Commissioner Stevens : In exchange for keeping The Mask of Violence, he gave me Ronin and The Mechanic's Location, so they are locked up for good, and Alex, Eric, Siddie, and Richard are all pardoned from any crime as well.
Nya : Well that's good.
Kai : What's not good is The Sons of Garmadon.
Commissioner Stevens : What did the do now?
Kai : It's what they are going to do, their new leader is known as The Stormed Princess, and it's Lydia Garmadon, and she's planning to use the Masks to Resurrect Garmadon.. Again, and then resurrect her parents.
Commissioner Stevens : Back up a Moment there Kai, First off, The Stormed Princess, great name, and second The Gold Princess is behind all of this
Kai : YES!
Nya : Well not all of it.
Commissioner Stevens : What do you Mean?
Nya : Lydia only joined the Sons of Garmadon, after her family was killed.
Commissioner Stevens : Which was Kai's Fault.
Kai : You too?!
Commissioner Stevens : Don't try that with me Kai, I was at Kryptarium that night, and I saw you send a bullet to Garmadon's Heart, do not act innocent when you know you're the reason Lydia went Mad.
Kai : Yea, and now we have to stop her before-
Commissioner Stevens : She gets the only thing that can and will stop her?
Kai : What's that supposed to Mean?
Commissioner Stevens : I've been in the Palace before, and have seen Lydia's actions with her brother and The Emperor and Empress, and if her family is the only thing she wants and needs, then don't stop her from doing such, or else The Oni's Mercenaries are sure to put you down.
Kai : If that happens, I'll learn where Eric got it from.
Nya : Or enough.
Commissioner Stevens : So who's doing what?
Kai : The Son of Morro is planning to raid The Security Vault beneath Borg Tower for the Mask of Ferocity with Liv's kids.
Commissioner Stevens : And they are?
Kai : Liam and Alizah Garmadon, better known as the Masters of Destruction and Supernova.
Commissioner Stevens : Right, and what else?
Kai : Everybody else is heading to Shintaro for The Masks of Greed and Brutality.
Commissioner Stevens : Shintaro is under command of Queen Vania, I can't help you there.
Kai : Let me guess, you won't help us raid the palace either to Save Ninjago?
Commissioner Stevens : Kai, if the Princess is only doing this to bring back The Emperor and Empress, then there's nothing to save Ninjago from.
Kai : Yea, well I'm letting her go through with this, I'm heading to Shintaro so we can get my son back.
Nya : I highly doubt Skylor would approve of this Kai.
Kai : Well she's not here, and neither is Jay, and look who's fault that is.
Nya : It wasn't Eric, Charlie, and most certainly wasn't Lydia's fault either, so enough.
Kai : Yea, well knowing what's happening right now, I'm not waiting, I'm heading to Borg Tower.
Felicia : Me too, I want to find out where they have my brother, and I'm finding out now.
Nina : I'm only going because I want something fun to do.
Nya : Good Luck with that.
Meanwhile in the Skies above the Shintaran Mountains. . .
The Oni's Mercenaries are with The Grandchildren of Garmadon heading towards Shintaro, since Queen Vania has two of the Oni Masks.
Lydia : The waiting has been half of the battle.
Killow : I'm just glad my size, and all the cannons are keeping those bats from biting.
Brenden : Yea.
Liv : Lydia, can I see you below the deck for a second?
Lydia : Okay.
Lydia followed Liv below the deck of The Jade Empress, and they went to the Sleeping Quarters.
Liv : Aright.
Lydia : What is it?
Liv walked Lydia over to her Golden Bed, ( big surprise there ) and she opened the drawers beneath it, and it was Lydia's Yellow overalls, her white shirt ( which had the Gold and Forest Green, Secret Ninja Force logos, which were what the Young Ninja had on the back of their Resistance Robes ) and her Old Gold jacket that she wore when she was with the Young Ninja, all folded up.
Lydia : Aunt Liv, I don't know.
Liv : What, you think you aren't worth to wear the clothes that you say you love so much because they're your favorite color?
Liv brightly smiled at Lydia and started blinking very fast, and it made Lydia laugh.
Lydia : That's not what I meant, I just don't know right now If I'm "worthy" to wear my "Princess" clothes, now.
Liv : Why, your daddy got these for you, and while not the Ninja, the white shirt here, the logos on this, don't make you a Ninja, but still signal others that you are a little girl who stands for and beside others who fight for what is right in Ninjago.
Liv folded the clothes again, used the overalls' belt to wrap around all of the clothes, and she handed them to Lydia.
Lydia : Thank you.
Liv : So?
Lydia : I will, when the time comes for me to see him again.
Liv kneeled down, and was about to hug Lydia, but she backed away, Liv frowned and was about to walk towards the door, when Lydia put the clothes on her bed.
Lydia : Aunt Liv.
Liv : Yea?
Lydia left Liv in shock, as she ran and jumped into her aunt's arms, and tears formed in Liv's eyes through her shock as she hugged her niece.
Lydia : Thank you.
Liv : Of course. . .
Lydia : I love you Aunt Liv.
Liv : I love you too, Lydia.
They heard sniffling, and while carrying Lydia in her arms, Liv looked towards the door.
Liv : Killow?!
Killow : S-sorry, It-It's just, The, That, That was beautiful.
Liv : Alright get out of here big softie.
Liv spun around with Lydia in her arms before she put her niece down.
Liv : I also wanted to say I'm proud of you Lydia.
Lydia : Thank you.
Liv : I'll just put this in here until you're ready.
Liv grabbed Lydia's folded princess clothes she used as her Civilian outfit, and put them back and the drawer.
Liv : Let's go,
Lydia : Okay.
Lydia raised her arms, and Liv grabbed her niece and carried her in her arms, for they were almost to Shintaro.
Meanwhile at Borg Tower. . .
Richard, Liam, and Alizah were in the elevator heading towards Cyrus Borg's Office, in hopes of convincing him to give them the Mask before going in by force.
Liam : You sure he's gonna give it up?
Richard : If not, we send Alizah down there, and she blows the door wide open, and we get The Mask of Ferocity.
Liam : You sure about this Richard?
Richard : I'm not losing my Dad again, I'm going to do whatever it takes to get him back, and keep him back.
The Elevator stops, and the three of them enter Cyrus Borg's Office.
Richard : Borg.
Cyrus turned off his computer, and put his hands on his deck when he saw the kids.
Cyrus Borg : Richard.
Richard : We need a little help.
Cyrus Borg : First off, who are these two?
Richard : The Daughter and Son of Liv Garmadon, Alizah and Liam, Masters of Supernova and Destruction, they're with Me.
Cyrus Borg : Alright, what do you need help with?
Richard : We need one of your "Artifacts" from the Vault.
Cyrus Borg : Which?
Richard : The Oni Mask of Ferocity.
Cyrus Borg : That thing is a deadly weapon, what do you need that for?
Richard : I need it to save my Father, and my chances of making sure I don't lose him again are fading for every second I waste, that's why I need the Mask.
Cyrus Borg : Just make sure it doesn't fall into the Sons of Garmadon's hands.
Richard : I will.
Cyrus Borg : Okay, I unlocked the floor, use the elevator to get there, and I'll tell you which vault has the Mask.
Just then, they heard an explosion.
Liam : What was that?!
The four of them looked out the window and saw Kai, Felicia, and Nina approaching the building.
Richard : Get that elevator going now, and we'll get to the bottom of the building, Liam stay here with Borg and make sure they don't try anything to harm him, Alizah let's go.
Alizah : Alright.
Richard and Alizah get into the elevator, and Liam stays with Borg, and Liam even uses his powers on two of the elevator cables to make the elevator go down faster.
Kai : Alright, get in there and do whatever it takes to find out where they have Charlie.
Felicia : On it.
Felicia and Nina run towards the stairs to reach the bottom of the Tower in The Security Vault, while Kai holds off the Security Droids.
Below the building. . .
Richard and Alizah enter the Security Vault and head for Vault 6, which is where The Realm Crystal was destroyed. . .
Liam : Alright, get to the Vault and hurry, I'll get the door open.
Alizah : Hurry, brother!
Just then, Nina and Felicia appeared and started walking towards Richard and Alizah.
Richard : We just had to be unarmed.
Felicia : Let's see how tough you are without weapons!
Just then Alizah let out her hand, and it created some sort of bright purple ball that looked like a Neutron Star and it was pulling Felicia's Swords.
Felicia : What the?!
Alizah used her powers harder, the swords flew out of her hands, and into Alizah's and she handed one to Richard.
Alizah : Ha, Magnetar, you didn't see that coming did you.
The two tried to charge at Richard and Alizah, but Richard slammed the sword against the ground and made a huge wind gust and it threw them against the wall.
The Two rushed towards the fault, and saw it was almost open but it was opening very slowly.
Richard : Liam, Can't you make this thing go faster?
Liam : Negative Richard, but you can try pulling it if it'll make you feel better.
Richard : Cheeky Ninja.
Alizah then used her Magnetar ability and it bent the metal of the doors, brought them closer, and she stretched her arms out fast to send the doors flying open.
Richard : Got it!
Richard ran straight in the vault and threw Felicia's Sword to knock the Mask out of the Lasers.
Alizah : Whoa, Look.
Alizah pointed and looked to Richard, and he turned and saw what she was looking at.
Richard : Whoa.
Richard and Alizah approached the item, and he knew what it was.
Richard : It's the Sword of Sanctuary.
Alizah : But... It's different.
Richard : I know, It's a Scimitar
Alizah : What's the difference?
Richard : A Sword is a straight long metal blade, while a Scimitar is a Short Sword with a curved metal blade that broadens at the front meaning the blade widens.
Alizah : That sounds exactly like the sword my Uncle Lloyd used when he fought The Sons of Garmadon.
Richard : That and the sword looks exactly like that now too.
Alizah : Maybe we should take it to Lydia, if she's really gonna rejoin her friends again when this is over, she's gotta have something to use.
Richard : Fair enough.
Alizah used her sword to grab the weapon from the vault, and they dropped Felicia's Swords and walked away.
Richard : The Scimitar of Sanctuary, that sounds a lot better.
Alizah : Yea, let's get outta here.
Richard : Liam we got the Mask, leave the office now.
Liam : On it, we'll head pack to the Ruins of the Royal Palace and wait for Lydia to return.
Richard : Good.
Alizah, Richard, and Liam leave the Palace with The Scimitar of Sanctuary and The Mask of Ferocity, and await Lydia's Return at the Royal Palace.
Kai heads to the vault and wakes up Nina and Felicia.
Kai : Girls, what happened?
Felicia : Took the Mask, and left.
Kai : Alright, let's go.
Nina helps her cousin stand up and they follow Kai and leave Borg Tower.
Outside the Tower. . .
Richard, Alizah, and Liam are heading back to the tower and something enters Liam's Mind.
Liam : I really hope Kai learned something today.
Richard : What?
Liam : Don't mess, with The Grandchildren of Garmadon. . .
Meanwhile at Shintaro.
The Jade Empress docked on top of the Palace, and Hailmar was there waiting.
Hailmar : Brenden Kenway, it is a surprise to see you messaged us.
Brenden : Surprised you gave a response Hailmar, I wanted to say thank you for helping me.
Hailmar : Of course, I did say you would always be welcome here after what you did during Vangelis' Reign.
Brenden : Thank you, now... Is Vania here?
Hailmar : Yes, in the Throne Room.
Brenden : Good, this way gang.
Everybody follows Brenden and Hailmar as they walk inside the Palace.
Liv : You know Brenden, I've been here before.
Brenden : Yea, but are you Best Friends with the Queen of Shintaro, yea I don't think so.
Liv : Cheeky Sandman.
Lydia got Liv's attention and raised her arms, and Liv chuckled as she grabbed Lydia and carried her.
Lydia : I've had my thoughts Aunt Liv, and I'll do it.
Liv : Good.
Lydia : Only thing is, before saving my Daddy, I need to do what's right and bring the others back first, and that includes Jay and Skylor, if Skylor isn't already dead yet.
Liv : I'm glad you see it that way, Killow's just gonna have to come with a punchy way to convince his Comrades.
Killow : They'll listen to Me in time.
Hailmar : You said "already dead yet", what is it you need these things for?
Brenden : To bring them back, The Young Ninja's parents have been going missing and being confirmed dead over the past few months
Lydia : Including Mine.
Liv let Lydia snuggle close to her in her arms, as Liv hugged her niece.
Brenden : Once we have all Ten Oni Masks we will be able to bring them able back, and stop their outrageous plans, and right now I think it's safe to say we have seven.
Hailmar : Ah, so your close.
Brenden : Yep, we get Greed and Brutality, and all that's left is The Mask of Death, but Eric's the only one who know's it's location, and he won't spill.
Hailmar : If it's as dangerous as it sounds, I can say it's a good idea to not say why.
Liv let Lydia down, and Killow ran back up to the others, he ran back to The Jade Empress to get Charlie, because Brenden and Lydia didn't want Charlie on the ship alone.
Brenden : Thought you might.
Hailmar : Here we are.
Charlie : The Ivory City is Amazing.
Lydia : Tell me about it, I was here once before last year for the Birthday of Prince Morgan, and he and his golden locks are charming, I guess that's why he's the pride of the whole kingdom.
Charlie sighed heavily, but was then shocked as Lydia used a key to take the Chains off.
Lydia : I trust you won't do anything you'll regret.
What none of them noticed was Kai's drone flying above them and watching was going on.
Kai : What are you up to now, Princess?
Maya : Kai, calm down.
Everybody stood in front of the doors as Hailmar opened the doors to the Throne Room and led them inside.
Hailmar : It is with great honor, Queen Vania, as I present The Oni's Mercenaries of Ninjago City.
Vania stood up on her throne and saw her old friends.
Queen Vania : Welcome back Brenden, you as well Liv, while interested, I am glad to see you returned to my home.
Liv : Thanks, but we didn't come here without a purpose.
Brenden : We found out recently that you have been holding onto The Oni Masks of Greed and Brutality.
Queen Vania : I do, they're in the Vault beneath The Palace.
Brenden : We need them.
Queen Vania : Why?
Liv : We discovered those Masks can save the leaders of other kingdoms here in Ninjago, Queen Akita and Emperor Lloyd are both deceased, and we need those Masks to bring them back.
Queen Vania : The Queen of the Formlings and The Emperor of Ninjago are dead?
Brenden : Yes, we had them, now we don't, keep up!
Charlie : My Crush here wants those masks so she can bring her Aunt and Father back.
Lydia : As well as my Mother.
Queen Vania : You guys know that while I am the rightful ruler, I also appear as a figurehead, with the citizens being the heart of Shintaro.
People : Princess Lydia... you've returned!
Everybody looked to the right and saw a boy with golden wings land, and the guards took the wings off.
Queen Vania : Then there's my heart, my son Prince Morgan.
Lydia, Eric, Alex, Siddie, and Charlie all stood there as Prince Morgan approached them.
Prince Morgan : I'm a big fan of you all, I've read and heard about all of your adventures over the past year, and you Charlie, are surely the most honorable of The Young Ninja.
Charlie : Thank you, heard that once, felt it once.
Lydia : Oh, ha ha.
Morgan saw Siddie standing next to Richard and he ran over to her.
Prince Morgan : Siddie Lancaster, the Earth elemental, it's a huge honor.
Morgan bowed to Siddie, and she returned the bow and smiled at the Prince, but it made Charlie suspicious of another royal, considering what Lydia and Montgomery are doing now.
Siddie : It's an honor to meet you as well Prince Morgan.
Queen Vania : A much bigger honor to us for somebody like you Siddie, your Grandmother and Father's actions here against Grief-Bringer and The Skull Sorcerer have become a Legendary Tale here in Shintaro.
Siddie : I know, my Daddy told me... but that's another reason why I'm here, I wanted to ask for your help.
Queen Vania : With what?
Siddie : My Daddy is dead now too, and-
Queen Vania : Cole is Dead?!
Siddie : Yes, and we need to locate The Mask of Death to find it, but with The rest of the Young Ninja's acts to stop us from finding the last Mask, I don't think we'll be able to get it and save him from being in the Departed Realm eternally.
Queen Vania : Cole is a hero here in Shintaro, as he helped protect Me, and I chose to fight alongside him against my Father to liberate all of Shintaro.
Brenden : What about Gulch and Queen Murtessa?
Person : My sweet Jay's old friend is here.
Gulch : It is good to see you again, Brenden.
Brenden saw Gulch and Murtessa walking towards them from the right side of Vania's Throne.
Queen Vania : Today I actually had something to discuss with them, but since you were coming and I knew it involved the Oni Masks, I had them bring the Masks with them.
Brenden : So they had The Masks?
Gulch : Yes, here they are.
Gulch and Murtessa pulled out the Masks of Greed and Brutality and handed them to to Lydia and Alex.
The Mask of Greed shared the same look with The Mask of Vengeance, only it was Green.
The Mask of Brutality shared it's look with The Mask of Deception, except it was Light-Blue.
Lydia then knew to do the right thing.
Lydia : You take it.
Charlie : What?
Lydia : I want to make amends Charlie, and if you feel it's better without The Mask of Greed in my hands, then you should take it.
Charlie looked at the Mask in his hands, and actually smiled at Lydia.
Lydia smiled back, and they turned to see a giant spider.
Lydia : *Scream*
The Spider tackled Lydia, and Charlie was about to use his powers when another Man came running in.
Man : Adam, Stop!
The Man got Adam to stop trying to tickle Lydia with his legs, and Charlie helped Lydia stand up.
Brenden : Twenty years and you still can't find any ways to stay out trouble... that's Plundar for you right there.
Plundar : Hey Brenden.
Brenden : Hey.
Liv : Hi Adam.
Adam went over to Liv and walked around her, and even lifted her and walked around with her on his back.
Plundar : Heard you guys were searching for The Oni Masks and planned to resurrect Cole.
Charlie : You were eavesdropping were you?
Plundar : Yep, but count Me in, Cole was a very honorable man, and a legend in this place, and he saved Me from being trapped beneath these Mountains my whole life, I'm in.
Brenden : Plundar's an Amazing thief believe it or not, so he'll be of use.
Plundar : Only I'll have Adam stay here, since he can entertain himself with Chompy.
Just then, Adam saw a Green and Gold Spiritual Ridgeback on Lydia's Shoulder and the Dragon landed on Adam's back, and the two of them played with each other.
Plundar : Who's that?
Lydia : That's Destin, he's Mine... Come here boy.
Destin got off Adam's back and was sitting on Lydia's shoulder again.
Brenden : Thank you for this Vania.
Queen Vania : Hold it, Morgan and I are coming with you.
Brenden : What?
Queen Vania : Plundar's right, Cole was a very honorable man, and if you guys are going to locate the one thing that can save him, I'm coming.
Prince Morgan : If this is about saving one of the most honorable people to walk this very place, I'm in.
Morgan grabbed his spear, which was actually a Naginata, and he grabbed his wings.
Vania did the same, and Vania took the "Cloak" part of her dress off, showing the same style of clothes she used when she was below the Mountain.
Queen Vania : Hailmar, I leave you to defend the Throne.
Hailmar : I understand.
Queen Vania : I promised to the Kingdom, and to Cole I would stand up to those Cruel and Unjust, time to stand beside that promise.
Siddie : I Promised my Daddy the same thing.
Vania smiled at Siddie, glad somebody that young would still fight against Ninjago's Most Wanted.
Queen Murtessa : Good Luck, Old Friend.
Brenden : Thank you Murtessa... alright kids, Let's Go.
The Oni's Mercenaries leave Shintaro with Vania, Plundar, and Morgan and head towards The Jade Empress.
Ignacia Village. . .
Kai turned off the footage, and threw the tablet to the ground.
Kai : The Princess is bad enough, yet she's still trying to win my Son's heart with her innocent cute little good girl face, and now The Royal Family of Shintaro as well as the Thief of the Upply are helping them, oh that's great, that is just freaking great!
Felicia : Dad, Enough!
Kai turned and saw Felicia had fire coming out her hands, signaling she was Mad.
Felicia : This is going to stop, Lydia's obviously trying to made amends, do not get upset at her for that, when you started all of this, and I'll tell you one thing, lay one hand on the girl, who meant the most to Emperor Lloyd, and I will take care of your wrath myself. . .
5 Minutes Later. . .
Everybody was now on the Ship heading back to The Royal Palace to leave the Masks in a safe place, and then would they ask Eric about The Mask of Death.
Charlie was on the deck looking at the view, since Lydia didn't feel the need to put on his chains or lock him up.
Charlie seriously wanted to bolt and go find his family, yet at the same time, something was keeping him from leaving, and he remembers the day he found his True Potential, and it was because of his heart, but since Lydia practically crushed Charlie's heart, he doesn't know how to feel now.
For Lydia, she literally felt the consequences of her actions in her own heart, and wanting to make amends for the damage she didn't even know she caused, she didn't know it, until she spoke of her need to say sorry to Lloyd, she felt a huge amount of weight was off of her shoulders, and more importantly her heart and soul, letting her think for herself again, and now that she's destroyed Charlie's heart, she wants to fix it, because while she can't seem to say it, she wants to now what Charlie thinks of her, because he doesn't know what to think of her, and she doesn't know it, and she wants to see it...
3 Minutes Later. . .
It's 4:35 p.m. and Charlie was out on the deck looking at the view, as the ship was flying back to Ninjago City, with Brenden saying it may take until tomorrow morning for them to get back.
Person : Charlie?
Charlie turns and sees Lydia wearing her Yellow Overalls, Old Gold Jacket, and her White Shirt again, and while not smiling, Charlie wasn't frowning at the sight either.
Charlie : Your Mother inspires all of your looks, doesn't she?
Lydia : You could say that.
Lydia looked down at her feet, and it somehow made her smile seeing her feet in her yellow overalls again, instead of spiky green leather boots
Lydia : You're a Man I can't figure out Charlie.
Charlie laughed at hearing that, since he felt the same way.
Charlie : Right back at you, Princess.
Lydia : You love me, hate me, and now. . .
Lydia folded her arms against the wooden railing on the deck of Brenden's Ship, as she and Charlie were both leaning against the railing and looking at the view, as the Sun beamed on them from.
Lydia had her arms folded and she was leaning on them against the railing, and Charlie was standing up straight with both of his hands flat on top of the wood.
Lydia : Like I pretty much told Kai at Primeval's Eye, trusting me was your Mistake.
Charlie : Oh sure, that just makes everything my fault, right?
Lydia slammed one of her hands against the wood and looked at Charlie, because now anger was inside of her.
Lydia : Don't even start-
Charlie : I didn't say anything, Princess!
Princess Lydia : So my home was nothing. . .
Charlie shook his head and began to walk away.
Princess Lydia : My Parents were Nothing?!
Charlie : Don't you!-
Just then a huge blast hit the side of the ship, and Lydia was sliding towards the edge.
Lydia : *Screaming* Charlie!
Charlie jumped onto the railing and kept his legs on top of the side, since the ship was almost at 180 degrees, and he grabbed Lydia's hand.
Lydia : Don't Let Go!
Charlie : You think I don't know that.
Queen Vania : It's an ambush!
Brenden : Steady the ship!
Liv got the ship to steady and Charlie used his other hand to grab Lydia's arm and pulled her up.
Lydia screamed as she was starting to lose her grip, but Charlie didn't, and he pulled Lydia up onto the ship and she fell on him.
Charlie : It's okay Liddy, I gotcha, I gotcha. . . I gotcha.
Lydia : Thank you.
Charlie : You're welcome, but what the heck was that?
Plundar : Where are they?!
Brenden : It was within Cannon range, but that's all I know.
Just then they saw a huge red object fly over the ship and fire a laser at one of the thrusters, but thankfully it missed.
Brenden : It's The Fire Mech!
Killow : Can you see anybody inside it?
Liv : No, I think something's controlling It.
Montgomery : It think it's, well-
Charlie : Say it, my Dad.
Montgomery : Good think Richard gave me this.
Montgomery grabbed something off his back and Charlie saw it.
Charlie : The Mask of Violence?!
Montgomery used the Mask, and it started a Blood Rain, and two dark red swords appeared in his hands.
Because Lydia didn't have The Mask of Agitation with her ( Because she left it to be protected at the Palace ) she was actually freaking out, because she didn't have a weapon, or the Mask.
Plundar : Are you gonna do anything?
Lydia : My Mask is what gives me the anger and evil will to stand up to others, I don't know how to fight!
Charlie : Well you want to live, Right, just take this and stay away from that thing!
Charlie handed Lydia her Silver Dagger, which he held onto.
Charlie : I may not agree with your motives Lydia, but my Dad's Madness has to stop.
Eric : Guys, I know what he's after.
Liv : What?
Eric pulled something out of his jacket and Liv saw.
Liv : You have The Oni's Maps?!
Eric : Yes, and look!
Eric ripped something off the hardcover and it was a little red beeping device.
Eric : One of them put a tracker on this thing!
Lydia : Don't let him get that Manuscript!
The Fire Mech charged at them and they prepared to fight back. . .
Next Time on The Masks of Garmadon : The Oni's Mercenaries fight back against The Fire Mech, with some of the group being separated from the others, when they realize that Eric threw the Manuscript to them when they fell, and decided to locate The Mask of Death, while Charlie finds the note that Lydia had, saying for her to be as Quiet as her Mother was, and Charlie decides to ask where the Note came from.
