The Masks of Garmadon

Side Note : This will be the last Chapter before the story heads into the next part, which is where the Young Ninja get hunted down, and it will stay there for the remainder of the Story, while the city is under The Sons of Garmadon's Control, but there will be far more chapters not connected to the events of Season 9 than there are ones connected, making the story more creative, with all of Ninjago under The Sons of Garmadon's Control, and not just the City.

ItsYoGreenGirl ( Chapter 13 ) : Yep, things were pretty heated pretty close to the Resurrection, and yea that fight was another Marvel Reference, Captain America : Civil War was a favorite of Mine. Harumi wanted to help Lydia without revealing herself so she took Kai and The Mask of Death to The Oni's Mercenaries, and yea recruiting Chopper Maroon, Marco, and Killow to The Oni's Mercenaries to help them change their ways and bring the bikers down, but Lydia only just realized the new problem she had on her hands, and yea good start from Kai.

ItsYoGreenGirl ( Chapter 14 ) : Killow's grown a little of his own Wisdom in his age from his time with The Sons of Garmadon ( And Harumi of Course ) Lydia pushed that memory of her as a baby into Garmadon's Mind, hoping that she could remind him that she was able to see the light even through his evil side, and while he did after the Memory was done, his Oni Side will never stop striking back... neither will Lydia Garmadon.

Chapter 15 : Big Trouble, Little Ninjago


Last Time on The Masks of Garmadon : The Young Ninja celebrate at Laughy's until they realize they didn't stop the ritual and Garmadon is back and he broke Mr. E and Ultraviolet out of Prison, with Lydia claiming it was her fault. Kryptarium Prison then falls under Garmadon's Control with Lydia locked her friends, brother, and aunt in the Sleeping Quarters of The Amber's Grace and heads to Kryptarium Prison to face Garmadon, just before that, Killow talks with Harumi about why she's with Garmadon, saying she didn't have a choice, just as Lydia arrives and the fight is put on a broadcast on every screen in Ninjago, and they see Garmadon hurt Lydia, just as she said that she's his granddaughter and sends a memory to hid mind, just as he sends Lydia through the walls, much to Harumi's and his own horror, as well as the rest of Lydia's Family, and she takes one more look at her Grandfather and Mother, before it's revealed to everybody, that The Gold Princess of Ninjago... Has fallen. . .

What Happens Next?

Find Out Now!


February 25th, 6:07 a.m.

The Moon is rising and shining light through the dark clouds, as snow falls near Kryptarium Prison. . .

"I can't believe my Twin Sister just sacrificed herself, In my eyes she's already suffered enough without my beside her, but in her eyes, she needs to make up for the Mistakes she's made over the past five months, and I'm not going to blame her, but I know she'd rather die than lose any of us, but In my case, it means the same thing, but I know If I die, then Lydia won't have anything, or perhaps anybody left to help her, at least that's what she thinks already without our Father, but... if Lydia can't see, that our family may never be out of harm's way, then she'll die. . . and I don't think anybody, even our Grandfather can handle that. . ."

"My name is Montgomery Garmadon, Grandson of Lord Garmadon and Misako, Nephew of Liv Garmadon, Queen Akita, and Brenden Kenway, Cousin of The Formlings, and Liam and Alizah Garmadon, the Son of Harumi and Lloyd, The Master of Energy... The Green Ninja... and Twin Brother, of Princess Lydia Garmadon, and my great-grandfather, The First Spinjitzu Master's Heart and Soul of Understanding... Guide us all. . ."

The Amber's Grace stopped about 3 Minutes ago outside the Prison which was now mostly abandoned, except for a few still inside, and all of their skin became incredibly pale once they saw Lydia.

Montgomery : My Little Sister. . .

She was laying flat on the ground, and he eyes were screwed shut in her own pain, Montgomery wanted to pull his little twin sister into an embrace, but Siddie and Richard put their arms in front of them, and shook their heads, and a painted Montgomery, let his head fall, and tears formed in his eyes, his sister was hurt to where he couldn't even touch her, and he promised time after time he would protect his sister, and he couldn't, and failed... every time.

Everybody was circled around Lydia, the kids just stood there while the adults were on their knees staring at The Gold Princess, they couldn't look away, no matter how much they wanted too. . .

Lydia's face and her clothes were covered in dirt, and her right shoulder, left arm, both of her entire legs, her back, her forehead, around her ears, her neck and her entire chest were all covered in golden blood.

Liv : Not even I can believe my Father did this.

Kai : Really, because I'm not surprised at all.

Charlie : Dad, shut up.

Kai : What?

Liv : Kai, even I've, seen the moments between Lydia and my Father before this day, and he enjoyed those moments, and I saw the tears in Harumi's eyes, as well as his own seeing Lydia like this, while he couldn't stop himself he obviously regretted it.

Nya : Liv, this talking isn't gonna save Lydia from dying.

Eric : Mom, neither is touching her, one touch to Lydia and her powers will try to protect her, and that's not gonna work when she's like this, it'll just hurt her more.

Liv : Okay, we gotta get Lydia out of here now, Kai, you take your daughter and my son and get The Amber's Grace, Siddie I want you, Nya, Xavier, and Richard to get the med-bay ready for Lydia... Charlie, Montgomery will stay with me, the rest of you keep watch.

Everybody nodded and got to work, but seeing Lydia in such a state was hurting Montgomery.

The Amber's Grace was near the entrance, only like three minutes from where they were, but it felt like a mile from seeing The Gold Princess like that.

Liv could have just told Hazel to bring The Amber's Grace to them, which would have been faster then sending her son to the ship, but Liam's thankful that her mother didn't, as much as Liam wants to be with his cousin Lydia, it broke his confidence in himself and his powers, while not from his hands, they were the same powers that just hurt The Gold Princess, he never, ever saw Lydia like that, beaten until she was covered in nothing but her own blood, and Liam then used his powers and his heart to keep going, because if his hope died, then Lydia would die.

Alizah and The Formlings walked away from Liv, Montgomery, Charlie, and their fallen cousin, they were all lost in thought, as Alex and Clayton were both running hands through their jet black hair.

Princess Alex : This is certainly one of the best nights of our life, I really am curious what sort of Nightmare the next day will bring.

Alizah : Why?

Clayton : Zach's Birthday is tomorrow.

Alizah : Oh, good lord.

Prince Zach : Tell me about it, I can't believe our cousin just sacrificed herself.

Alizah : I can, Garmadon meant something to Lydia, and she wanted to see if she still meant something to him, and from the tears in his eyes, she did, but his Oni side is keeping him from doing what he knows is right.

Zach but a hand of Alizah's Shoulder, because he could understand, while Alizah wasn't a cousin, when it came to Family-In-Arms, Alizah is a sister, same with Lydia.

Liv, Charlie, and Montgomery were staring at Lydia, but they knew she couldn't hang on forever.

Montgomery leans back against a rock letting more tears leave his eyes, he couldn't take his eyes off of his little twin sister... the rise and fall of Lydia's fight with their Grandfather, it was nothing but a shock to his eyes, and his sister, covered entirely in her own golden blood, there was too much of it, and that fight when down too fast and choppy for it to mean anything good, Montgomery kept promising he would Protect his sister, and that he would be there for her. . .

And Every... Single... Time, he wasn't there, and his sister payed the Price.

Because of his own dreams, he couldn't help his sister's, he couldn't protect their Parents at the Royal Palace, he couldn't save her from The Oni Masks, he couldn't protect her from Kai, he couldn't even protect her from their own Grandfather.

Every failure he has is always Physical, but not for him... for his "baby" twin sister... Princess Lydia Garmadon.

Montgomery tried to move a damp gold strand of hair ( Not sure if it was Dyed, or Blooded ) from Lydia's cheek, with weak and pitiful, and for Lydia, painful sparks light up around her to try and protect her, but it did the opposite, and a heart wrenching cry tearing from her slit forest green lipstick, and golden blooded lips, Montgomery watched hearing her sister cry in so much pain, and waited until the powers died.

Montgomery bit his own tongue very hard, because his sister's powers are supposed to protect her, and not slowly tear her apart Lydia's Golden Creative Powers tried so hard to protect her, but in the end it wasn't any use, she pushed herself too hard, and their grandfather didn't stay his hand from Lydia's blooded body... and Montgomery should have seen this sort of act from her, with how much she takes after her father because much like Lloyd is Lloyd.

Lydia. . . is Lydia, and nobody could change that, but that's what Montgomery was afraid of.

Lydia... Montgomery's bratty little twin sister, who did nothing but become inseparable with each other until they were six, when Montgomery left to pursue his Baseball dream, and failed to protect her until she became his little "baby" twin sister, with a pure soul, good intentions, kind eyes, gentle smile, and a now bleeding heart in a world full of big bads that would do nothing to harm her-

Liv : MONTGOMERY!

Montgomery snapped out of it and looked at Liv who was shaking him.

Liv : It's Okay, calm down! and breathe, it's okay.

Montgomery : Didn't realize I was holding my own breath inside of Me.

Liv : Are you okay?

Montgomery rubbed the tears out of his eyes and shook his head, because he couldn't lie to his aunt during Lydia's Gravest Hour.

Just then a light turned on, and it was from The Amber's Grace... Hazel and Kai lowered the gurney, and Liv looked at Montgomery and Charlie, and they knew they had to move her.

The second they did though, more sparks came out of her chest and the rest of her body, and she started whimpering as they placed her on the gurney, and they went to the rope ladder when Nya lowered it.

Everybody then climbed up the ladder and The Amber's Grace flew from Kryptarium Prison. . .


3 Hours Later. . .

Nya and Kai also got word to Pixal, and they were trying to do anything possible to keep Lydia alive, but any time they touched her, she would let a heart wrenching cry from the pain her powers were giving her... the only thing they could do was wait for her to wake up.

Liv : I'll be right back you guys. . .


Ninjago City. . .

Misako and Hutchins were still in Dareth's Apartment watching the news.

Gayle Gossip : Reporting just outside Borg Tower, where the Mayor has just put out citywide curfew until further notice, and tensions are high but the question on everybody's mind is, where are the Young Ninja, and is The Gold Princess okay?

Hutchins : Somehow I feel like she won't make it, she was covered entirely in blood.

Misako : Well when you put it like that.

Just then the phone went off and Misako answered it.

Liv : Mom, it's Liv.

Misako : Is my Grandbaby okay?

Liv : We found Lydia, but she's in extremely bad shape, she's covered entirely in golden blood, and her powers keep tearing her apart if we touch her, we don't know what else to do.

Misako : What about Harumi?

Liv : She left with Dad, though I have no clue why, but from her reaction to Lydia, and the tears in her eyes, I'm guessing she didn't have a choice.

Misako : Is there still no sign of Lloyd?

Liv : No, I have no clue if he even is alive, and that resurrection only worked with Dad, though I highly doubt it, but I have no clue where my brother is.

Misako sighed and quickly wiped a few forming tears out of her eyes. . .

Liv : We're heading your way now, but Lydia's fading away, and we have no idea what else to do that can help her. . . wait Mom-

Misako : Sweetie, I'm reading your mind, take her to Mystake!

Liv : I will, and the next time you see me, hopefully you see Lydia too.

Liv hung up and Misako looked out the window and saw the citizens panicking.

Hutchins : You really think she'll make it?

Misako : She's The Daughter of Lloyd Garmadon, she has too.


Meanwhile near another village. . .

The Sons of Garmadon were at the village and were trying to get the people to surrender.

Harumi : Your Village is surrounded... kneel before your new Emperor.

Leader : We will never kneel, our people have taken up arms, and we will fight if we have to.

Garmadon : Take up arms?!

Harumi : These people know nothing of your power, Emperor Garmadon, show all of Ninjago how to kneel.

Harumi frowned after she stopped talking and so did Killow, because she wanted to find her daughter, but she couldn't with the rest of the Sons of Garmadon next to her, especially Garmadon.

Garmadon then used his powers and recreated the Giant Stone Colossus. . .

Leader : Please, Forgive us, Emperor Garmadon.

The Leader then kneeled in front of the Generals, and they smiled mischievously, except Harumi and Killow.

Just then Garmadon prepared to start walking away, but Harumi grabbed his shoulder and the Generals continue walking away, including Killow.

Harumi : Garmadon, are you seriously not worried one bit about Lydia?

Garmadon : Of course I am, you saw the tears in my eyes, but my Oni side, and the destructive power flowing through me, won't ever let me do what's right, and sadly, Lydia was right, her Creative powers are the one thing that may save me, but if she loses those powers, nothing will be left to save me unless they return... I don't know if I will ever see the light again.

Harumi : Which is why Lydia won't ever stop trying, because it's all she wants... she wants her whole family back... that's the same thing Lloyd wanted.

.


On The Amber's Grace. . .

Lydia was in the Med-Bay of the Ship, and she was still covered in dirt and blood, and she was slightly whimpering in her sleep because of her pain.

Montgomery, Charlie, and Liv were the ones in there with her, while the others were doing other things on the ship, but then they noticed Lydia's eyes were moving.

.

Meaning she was waking up. . .

Lydia opened her eyes, and saw she was on the ship, and Charlie shouted through the intercom.

Charlie : Guys, Lydia's awake!

Everybody else went to the Med-Bay and saw Lydia, and she spoke to Liv.

Princess Lydia : Aunt Liv. . .

Liv : Lydia?

Lydia gasped and had trouble breathing with everything she said, but she still talked.

Princess Lydia : Did it... work?

Liv held Lydia's hand, and shook her head, and Lydia slammed her head back against the table, and she immediately started crying.

Liv was gonna say something to Lydia to tell her she would be okay, but she didn't know how she could say a lie that big to her own niece, Liv can't deny it when she would tell Lydia she's never been in that much pain, she was never covered entirely in dirt and her own blood, and she didn't lose everything she ever had in one night, and turned on her friends, just to bring them all back, only to come close and almost die in the process...

Liv can't say anything to Lydia, besides the fact that her niece was right, she's been hurt the most out of her entire family, and that pain was something nobody in Ninjago could compare too.

Pixal : How far out are we?

Nya : Too far, that's how far we are.

Kai : Okay, same thing I said about Lloyd, I'll say about Lydia, we need to help her right now, or else she won't make it that far.

Everybody looked at Lydia, and she was holding Liv's hand and had her head to the side, as she was crying, and they agreed.

Liv : Pixal?

Pixal : I need Needles, thread, a water basin, and damp rags to keep Lydia from getting worse.

Liv : Is this really how much I hurt my brother last time?

Kai : No Liv.

Liv looked at Kai, and he spoke.

Kai : Lydia... whether it was Physical or Emotional, got hurt ten times as much.

The others came back with what Pixal needed

Liv was about to get up, as Lydia tried harder to squeeze Liv's hand, and she spoke.

Princess Lydia : Aunt Liv, Please... Don't Leave Me.

Liv sat back down, and held Lydia's hand, and saw Lydia lightly crying in pain as she looked at her knowing it wasn't right to leave Lydia if she was this scared.

Liv : I'm not leaving you Lydia... I'm not breaking my promise again, you're my Niece, I love you.

Then Lydia gasped, and tried to catch her breathe, and saw Charlie on the other side of her as she turned her head and slightly cried.

Princess Lydia : Charlie... Don't look at Me.

Charlie knew Lydia didn't want him seeing her this way, and he walked out of the room, since he couldn't bare seeing Lydia like that either.

Liv : It's okay Lydia, I'm not going anywhere... I'm not.

Princess Lydia : Aunt Liv, just please promise... that you won't leave Me.

Liv had tears in her eyes as she spoke to Lydia, and held her niece's hand.

Liv : I won't, I love you.

Princess Lydia : I love you too, Aunt Liv... Don't Leave Me.

Lydia cried, and Liv was close to crying also as she was having tears leave her eyes, as she held Lydia's hand, and Lydia looked at Liv and continued crying.

Pixal had seen all the dirt and blood coming from the wound on Lydia's leg, and she put her hand on there for one second, and Lydia's Powers sparked, and she yelled in pain before Pixal moved her hand back, and Lydia still had tears as she looked at Liv with panicked eyes.

Liv : Lydia, it's okay.

Montgomery grabbed Lydia's left hand, since Liv was still holding Lydia's right, and she spoke.

Princess Lydia : Please, don't hurt Me.

Nya : Princess, we aren't trying to.

Pixal then used the morphine on Lydia's arm, to sedate her and she laid back, and Montgomery and Liv felt Lydia's grip on their hands getting weaker.

Liv : Sweetie, you need to stay awake... Lydia!

Princess Lydia : Just... Don't Leave Me.

Lydia closed her eyes, and went into a coma, and the others knew since they could barely hear her breathing, and they tried to help her.


40 Minutes Later. . .

Mystake's Tea Shop didn't have any business at the moment which was good for The Young Ninja. . .

Bad for Lydia because Mystake was taking ages with the Resurrec-Tea and Lydia was hallucinating in her sleep.

Princess Lydia : No. . . No, Stay away from Me!

Nina : Mystake, hurry up!

Mystake : You cannot hurry Tea, you can only have patience to get it right.

Montgomery : Screw your Patience, My sister's about to die!

Kai, Liv, Nya, and Pixal managed to get almost all of the blood off of Lydia, off her chest, back, ears, forehead, and her face, leaving just a little bit on her right shoulder, left arm, and her legs, and her powers actually "Recreated" her skin and damage to her organs and she had no more open wounds, but she still had pain inside of her and lost too much of her blood.

Mystake : It is Ready. . .

Brenden : Will it really save her?

Mystake : It will heal her wounds, but. . .

Nya : But, what?

Kai : There's always a but in these scenarios.

Xavier : Whatever it is, we'll pay it.

Mystake : This is a Price for you and your friend, each of you must lay a hand upon him, and the tea will focus your elemental powers to save her, but it may use all of the power one of you has left.

Nina : You mean one of us could lose our powers?

Mystake : Perhaps, perhaps Not.

Montgomery : Screw that, I'd rather lose my life and my powers, rather than my little sister.

Lydia let out another wrenching cry, meaning she wasn't gonna last much longer.

Eric : Do it.

Felicia : Wait, we can't just jump into decisions like this, we-

Eric : Much like Kai and his hothead, you're only worried about yourself Felicia, what about our friend?

Felicia : I don't think it's right for any of us to call her our friend anymore!

Montgomery : Maybe not for you, but for me, Liam, Alizah, Liv... and Charlie, she's family, and I'm not listening to another word.

Montgomery put his right hand over his sister's heart, and looked at the others.

Felicia : Hey, maybe I am being selfish, but you all saw how powerful Garmadon was against Lydia, even when she had her powers, she couldn't do anything.

Kai : Felicia, you're wrong there, I saw her Creativity land a few hits on Garmadon, meaning she was right when she said his Darkness and Destruction had a weakness.

Charlie : Which is Creation, which is an element I can't absorb, much like Supernova, I get it, Dad.

Xavier : This decision has to be unanimous, I'm giving my powers.

Alizah : Me too.

Liam was about to put his hand on Lydia before Mystake stopped him.

Mystake : Not you two.

Liv : What?

Mystake : If Lydia absorbed your destructive powers it could make the tea Poison her Heart, which would kill her.

Liam put his hand down and bit his lip, upset he can't do anything for his cousin.

Nina : I'm in.

Prince Zach : So am I.

Via : Don't need to ask me.

Clayton : Who has to ask?

Princess Alex : She's not just my cousin, but my best friend.

Eric : I'm in.

Lucas : So am I.

Charlie : I'd rather give every single elemental power inside of me that I've absorbed just to save her.

Kai : That could hurt you or worse Charlie.

Charlie : I don't care... I love her.

Everybody looked at Felicia who sighed and put her hand on Lydia's leg, and Mystake gave Lydia the tea.

The Tea worked, and the powers began surging through Lydia's body, and she started grunting and groaning as the powers went through her, and she opened her eyes, and they flashed bright green as the powers flowed through her.

Everybody watched as the powers stopped flowing through Lydia, and she fell back and went to sleep.

Mystake : Now... we have to wait, and see.

Charlie was in shock that he said he loved Lydia, even if what she did with the Sons of Garmadon was a ruse, she wasn't wrong where it was her fault Garmadon escaped, and what she said did hurt him, even if she didn't mean it.


10 Hours Later. . .

It was after 7:00 p.m. and the Sun had set, and Lydia was still unconscious. . .

Mystake was humming and doing something in the back while everybody was sitting in the front of the shop with Lydia and waited. . .

Jay, Cole, Opal, Morro, and Queen Akita came to the Tea Shop a few hours ago. . .

Exactly One hour ago, Zane's Signal came back online and Pixal went to go and get him, and while he was still concerned about Lydia, Xavier was happy that his Father was okay.

Felicia then lit a flame in her hand, and Kai patted her daughter's back.

Nya : Well at least you kids all have your powers.

Liam : To me that feels like a regret.

Liv : Why, Son?

Liam : Because, of my wretched destructive hands I couldn't do anything for Lydia, I feel like I failed her.

Montgomery : We all did Liam, and while some of us may choose to, we all know we can't deny it.

Liv : I have to find Lloyd. . .

Jay : You think you can Liv?

Liv : Jay, Lloyd is the only one Lydia wanted, and while she tried to fix this mess, she almost got killed in the Process, and none of us can deny that Lydia just wants him back, and now that he is back, the only thing left to do is find him.

Montgomery : Yea, and what about our Mom?

Liv : Montgomery, I already told you I would find out what she's doing with the Sons of Garmadon, and when I do, I'll get her out of there, but for now, is not safe for us, for her, or for you to see her, that could get all of us killed.

Brenden : Yea, if Garmadon doesn't get to that first.

Eric : At Least we still have our Powers.

Felicia : Yea, but is that enough.

Eric : It always is, Cus.

Felicia : What if it's Not?

Eric : Ninja Never Quit, Felicia.

Felicia : Ninja don't last forever Eric, Lydia's living proof of that, if she even is still living.

Montgomery : I'm gonna ask you one time nicely, to never say that about my sister again.

Charlie : Montgomery, you know my sister's right, Lydia didn't quit standing up to Garmadon and she almost got killed in the process, it's a perfect example.

Liv : Of that, and of her taking after Lloyd.

Morro : Yea, that I know.

Liv : You would Mr. Possession.

Quiet a few of the kids giggled at what Liv said, and so did Kai, Nya, Morro, and Cole.

Morro : I'm not gonna argue, what you felt being trapped in your own mind is how Lloyd felt because of Me.

Brenden : Just wait until he sees you've died a fourth time, came back a fourth time, it's started to get old.

Richard : Yea, which Is why I want it stop happening.

Nya : Kids, whatever happens, we all need to fight on.

Nina got annoyed with Mystake's humming and questioned her.

Nina : What could possibly be so important that you need to do that now?

Mystake : Just something to go... for your time of need, remember, to go.

Nina : To go?

Morro : Where did Mystake just go, Stupidtown?

Everybody laughed at what Morro said, and even Mystake chuckled.

as Mystake walked in the back, the whole building shook and they heard a loud bang.

Nya : I know that sound anywhere.

Siddie : What is it?

Everybody ran outside to see what the noise was.

They looked up and saw smoke rising from a broken skyscraper.

Nina : What could have possibly done that?

Xavier : Something big, that's what.

Felicia : Thanks for that Captain Obvious.

Just then they watched another building fall.

Kai : Come on!

Princess Alex : What about Lydia?

Liv : I'll stay with her, and you three, I know you want to make sure she's okay, but you need to go help them.

Montgomery : Aunt Liv-

Liv kneeled down and hugged her nephew and Montgomery returned the hug and let a few tears leave his eyes.

Liv : I'll keep her safe Montgomery, now go!

They ran off to find out what was going on, and Hazel used the Samurai X Mech and followed them.

Once they got there, they saw a crushed police car, and they saw a huge stone Monster.

Kai : Not again.

Cole : Yes Kai, again.

Felicia : We're losing it!

Felicia pulled on her hood and began climbing a building's Fire Escape, the kids then pulled on their hoods and followed them.

They climbed across the rooftops and jumped of Hazel's Mech with Nina almost falling, and Hazel used the foot of the Mech to kick her over to the next rooftop.

The Police were in a line and the Colossus crushed their cars, and everybody else was on a rooftop behind it.

Nina : Oh, Sweet Garmageddon.

Commissioner Stevens : Why did it Stop, what happened?

Harumi : I believe you mean, what happens next?!

Harumi had her hands on her hips and an evil smile as Garmadon spoke.

Garmadon : Kneel, or I will raise your city back into the dust from which it came.

The Commissioner and the Officers started to kneel before Kai spoke.

Kai : Not So Fast!

Jay : "No So Fast", that's all you got after twenty years?

Kai : Oh shut it.

Montgomery : Mom!

Harumi looked over at the rooftop, and she saw a Green Ninja and he removed his hood.

Harumi : Montgomery?!

Montgomery : Mom, don't do this, Please!

Garmadon looked at Harumi, and she didn't know what else to say, she didn't know her son was alive.

Harumi had tears form in her eyes as she shook her head, in shock.

Liam : Montgomery, she didn't know about you.

Montgomery : What?

Harumi : Son, I thought you were dead!

Morro : Nice going, Red-Idiot.

Kai : Look, Sorry if I'm distracted by that giant walking thingy!

Opal : Guys, I think he heard you.

The Colossus then punched the rooftop, and the kids began falling, with their parents using their powers to help them.

Nina : Thanks for that.

Zane : You are welcome.

The Colossus punched another building and a Man was in his bathroom.

Kai : Sorry, we totally should have known.

On the streets Siddie and Cole used their Earth Punch and the Colossus stepped on the crack and fell into a pit, with Nina and Jay using Lightning to shock it, which stunned the Colossus, but it didn't stop it.

Nina : Okay, he really doesn't like us now.

Prince Zach : I wonder why!

On the Rooftop Harumi was with Killow and Garmadon, but she was still shocked about seeing her son.

Harumi : They are no match for you, and their resistance will fail.

Killow : What about your Son, Lydia might be dead right now, you gonna have your Father In-Law kill the other?

Harumi : No!

Harumi said that in anger and pointed to Garmadon, and he nodded.

Garmadon : Very well.

Harumi : Thank you.


In the Tea Shop. . .

Lydia's green eyes faded away and were now a shade of Obsidian Green, and she woke up and shouted.

Princess Lydia : My Grandfather!

Mystake : It worked, it actually worked, that's a second!

Liv : Lydia!

Liv pulled Lydia off the counted and pulled her niece into a tight embrace in her arms, and while she was still sore, Lydia returned the hug, when Liv let Lydia sit down on the counter.

Princess Lydia : Aunt Liv, I just had the worst dream about a huge stone giant and my grandfather, they're looking for my Grammy, my Great Uncle and Daddy.

Mystake : That was not a dream Princess, it was a vision.

Liv : Do you still have your power?

Liv looked at Lydia's eyes as saw they were Obsidian Green meaning she didn't,

Lydia raised her hand but nothing happened.

Lydia : I don't understand, I-I can't, why C-Can't I?

Liv : You're alive Lydia, that's all you need to know.

Just then Brenden burst into the Shop.

Brenden : It's what Harumi and Garmadon need to know before they send her brother to hell!

Lydia : What?!

Mystake : You need to find the rest of your family before it's too late.

Princess Lydia : With everything my Daddy said, without my power, I can't be The Gold Ninja.

Liv : Don't say that Lydia. . .

Princess Lydia : But my Grandfather's still out there, I can't, I can't save him.

Liv : We need to fight on, Lydia.

Just then the whole building shook again.

Brenden : And we gotta hurry and find the others, or else Montgomery's as good as dead.

Liv : Sweetheart, do you have strength left.

Lydia gave a tiny smile and nodded as Alex came into the shop as well to help her cousin.

Princess Alex : Didn't think I was gonna leave your side, right?

Princess Lydia : Never did, never will.

The four of them walked out of the shop and into the Rainy Night, before Mystake called them.

Mystake : Wait!

The four of them turned around to Mystake and she walked out in the Rain.

Mystake : Take these with you.

Mystake handed Lydia a bag of yellow tea, and a Flail that had a Pickaxe blade, and handed Brenden a Halberd since his Axe broke.

Mystake : You may not have your power Lydia, but that was never what made you powerful, it was your heart.

Lydia hugged Mystake and while shocked, she returned the hug before Lydia went back to the others.

Liv : The others aren't far, we need to hurry.

Mystake : Now go, Young Ninja, go... The End is not the end, but only a new beginning.

The four of them leave Mystake and head into the City.


Meanwhile. . .

The Young Ninja and their Parents were on a rooftop trying to think.

Xavier : We're not match for it.

Nina : Out of all the things we fought, this is the biggest, even bigger than The Plague Doctor's Zeppelin.

Siddie : Yea, cheers to that.

Prince Zach : We need The Jade Empress, maybe we can use the cannons on that thing.

Hazel : Go, I'll keep him busy.

The Young Ninja ran off before their parents told them that wouldn't work, so their only option was to follow the kids...

On the rooftop, Garmadon started getting a weird feeling.

Harumi : What is It?

Garmadon : My brother is close. . .

In Dareth's Apartment. . .

Misako, Hutchins, and Master Wu were looking at the rain falling.

Wu started getting a weird feeling, that his brother was coming for them.

Master Wu : My Brother... he's coming.

Misako : Wu, are you sure?

Master Wu : If I wasn't, I wouldn't say it.

Hutchins : Then we need to leave.

The three of them left Dareth's Apartment only to see Garmadon walking towards them.

Hutchins : What the heck happened to you?

Garmadon fired up his powers and walked closer.

Misako : Garmadon, don't do this, you know this isn't want Lydia wants!

Garmadon fired up his powers and fired them at the group before Liv grabbed her mother and uncle and moved them out of the way.

Master Wu : Liv?

Liv : I'm not the one who guys should be seeing.

They turned around and saw Brenden, Alex, and Lydia.

Misako : Lydia!

Lydia smiled at her Grandmother, but it was short lived until Liv grabbed Master Wu's hand and made him stand back.

Liv : Lydia, is your great-uncle is the one your grandfather wants, then get him out of here.

Princess Lydia : But what about you?!

Misako : We'll hold him back Lydia.

Princess Lydia : But-

Liv : Lydia... Go find your brother!

Hutchins : Liv, I'm going with them.

Liv : Alright.

Princess Lydia : Just come back okay, I still need you two.

Misako : We aren't going to leave you that easily Lydia.

Liv and Misako stayed back while the others ran off, and they tried to fight Garmadon.

Liv : Mom, you sure your up for this?

Misako : Sweetie, I was married to him once, I'm up for anything.

Liv and Misako charged at Garmadon, and they began fighting, but Garmadon forgot that fighting fuels Liv's Powers just as much as they do for his.

One of Garmadon's hands then got stuck in the wall, and he broke free as they continued fighting.

Garmadon : You've become a disappointment to me, we could have done this together, Liv!

Liv : You almost killed my niece, and from what I saw at Kryptarium, while you would never choose to admit it, you regret what you did to her!

Garmadon : Even if I did, I couldn't bring myself to show Mercy to her, no matter how badly I would want it.

Garmadon then grabbed Liv's daggers and sent them above and beneath her arm to pin her against the wall.

Garmadon grabbed Misako and threw her hard down the hallway.

Liv : Mom!

Liv then grabbed her daggers and threw them at Garmadon.

Liv : Alright Father, that's it!

Garmadon : I agree.

Garmadon pulled a broken pipe off the wall and used it's powers on it to throw it at Liv, and it knocked her out.

Misako : Liv!

Garmadon then turned around to face Misako, only to get blasted by Green energy.

Misako turned around and saw a man wearing the robes Lloyd got from Garmadon in Season 5, and he was wearing a Thin Forest Green Overcoat over the robes, and he took off the black jacket he had on top of it.

and it brought joy to Misako when she saw their green eyes.

Lloyd : Hey, Mom.

Misako : Lloyd!

Misako stood up and hugged her son, and Lloyd returned the hug.

Misako : I knew it.

Lloyd : Knew what, that the ritual brought back me as well, or that you people couldn't get rid of me that easily.

Misako : You should be telling that to Lydia.

Lloyd : Mom, you know I can't.

Misako : I know, but you need to find her soon, you're the only one left Lloyd, Lydia knows about Harumi, Me, Hutchins, your Father, and everybody except you, you are the only one that Lydia wanted, and the longer that you stay in the darkness like this, I don't know what she'll do to herself, you had to have seen what happened at Kryptarium.

Lloyd : Yes, I did.

Misako : Then don't in the darkness much longer, or the next time it happens, Lydia may die this time.

Lloyd then saw Liv was slowly starting to wake up.

Lloyd : I have to go, just don't tell anybody about this, especially Liv.

Misako : I understand Son, just go.

Lloyd grabbed his black jacket and then left the building.


On the Rooftops. . .

Lydia, Brenden, Alex, Hutchins, and Master Wu made it to the roof, and saw the Colossus.

Princess Lydia : How am I supposed to stop that?

Brenden : I have no idea, Lydia.

The group turned to run from the stone beast when somebody landed on the roof, put their hands on their hips, and mischievously smiled.

Harumi : Running won't do you any good Brother, give us the Old Man.

Brenden : Not only will running not help us, neither is hurting your daughter.

Alex and Hutchins moved out of the way, and Harumi saw her.

Harumi : Lydia?!

Princess Lydia : Mommy... why?

Harumi shook her head as she saw her daughter, not believing she was still alive.

Princess Lydia : Mommy, is this really what you want to do, to destroy all of Ninjago City, and create more victims... Just think about how many others will be made like you when you were still young, I almost went down that Path, and you know that isn't what you want.

Harumi : Sweetheart, you're right, it isn't... but there is a lot more at stake here than what you could understand, I don't have any choices.

Brenden : Sister, there are always choices, how is it you and Garmadon can't see that, that Memory... that Lydia sent through her grandfather's head, proved he still has a choice, and so do you, is this really the path you're going down?

Harumi put her left hand on her hip and mischievously smiled.

Harumi : Oh no... this is just the beginning.

Harumi pulled out The Mask of Hatred, and it scared Lydia.

Princess Lydia : Mommy, don't do this, please!

Harumi : I'm sorry, Sweetheart.

The group took off just as Harumi put on the mask, as tears formed in her eyes, and she began chasing them.

Harumi tried to catch up as they climbed across a Skytram railing, and made it to another rooftop, but it was a dead end, as they saw the Skytram was a distance away.

Harumi landed on the rooftop and approached them.

Harumi : You know the Sons of Garmadon could always use more, join us. . .

Lydia looked down towards the Skytram and back towards her mother.

Princess Lydia : Mommy, you know I can't... I just wish that this world would stop taking everything away from Me!

Harumi took off the Mask, and looked at her daughter and the tears in her eyes.

Harumi : Lydia... I'm sorry, but thanks to that ritual and The Oni's Maps, not only is Garmadon back, but so are the Oni Masks, and now all sides are playing with forces that nobody could understand.

Princess Lydia : But I do understand, I've had visions of Ninjago in Complete Darkness and Ruins, and I've seen the Oni Masks power, using those masks for Vengeance and Violence, to Deceive, Hate, Blackmail, Greed, and show nothing but Ferocity, Agitation and Brutality, and above all else... to enforce Death!

Harumi was in shock, that Lydia actually understood everything of her Grandfather's Motives, but she still didn't understand why she was just standing there.

Princess Lydia : Mommy, I can't choose between my own family anymore... Because If I'm the one who makes that choice, instead of all of you, all of Ninjago will be torn apart piece by piece, the same way every one of the Ninja and our family had, I can't lose any of you again... but I make that choice... I'll lose everybody.

Harumi took off the Mask, and stared at her daughter.

Princess Lydia : I'm sorry... but everyone knows that I can't make that choice.

Lydia jumped onto the Skytram, and so did the others.

Harumi : Sadly Lydia, I can't make that choice either.

Harumi put the mask back on and chased the Skytram.

Princess Lydia : Guys, It's Lydia, I have Wu, but where are you guys, can you hear me?!

Felicia : Loud and Clear, Princess!

They looked to their right and saw The Jade Empress.

Brenden : My Ship, smart move.

Kai : Guys, Jump!

Princess Lydia : We can't it's too far!

Kai : Xavier, bring it closer!

Xavier : This is as close as I can bring her.

The Skytram went underneath a freeway and the ship had to go over, and it rubbed against the concrete.

Kai : Careful!

Xavier : Are you actually doubting my ability to closely proximate the value of our surroundings, I'm a Nindroid!

Harumi ran and jumped onto the Skytram and took off the Mask of Hatred.

Harumi : Give me the Old Man, Lydia... the "Emperor" wants his brother!

Lydia had tears forming in her eyes as she shook her head.

Montgomery : Sister!

Lydia looked and saw Montgomery and Alizah on one of the rooftops, meaning they were safe, but she was trying to wait for a moment to get onto the ship.

Kai : Lydia, jump... you guys can make it!

They turned and tried to jump but only Master Wu made it, with Brenden, Alex, and Hutchins falling off the Skytram, and Harumi wrapped her arms around her daughter's waist to keep her from running.

Harumi : Not so Fast!

Charlie : Lydia!

Charlie then got onto the side of the ships railing.

Kai : Son, what are you doing?!

Charlie : Helping the Princess!

Charlie jumped off the Ship and landed on the Skytram, and he saw a building.

Charlie : Watch Out!

Xavier steered the ship out of the way, and barely avoided the building.

Kai : We have to help my Son!

Xavier : I'll circle the ship around.


On The Skytram. . .

Harumi : Lydia, you shouldn't have done that!

Princess Lydia : I know, but I told you Mommy, I can't choose between my own family anymore!

Harumi walked towards Lydia, but Lydia pulled out her Pickaxe Flail, and charged at her Mother, and Harumi pulled out her dagger and did the same.

The Jade Empress was approaching the Skytram, when the Colossus grabbed the ship.

And it slowly started to crush it.

Princess Lydia : No!

Harumi looked and saw the Colossus, and she looked at the ship as well.

Harumi : What the heck is he doing?!

On The Ship. . .

Hazel, Eric, Queen Akita, Clayton, Harmony, Via, Morro, and Richard saw the ship was getting crushed and they looked at each other and nodded

They ran towards the railing and used their powers.

Kai : Eric, what are you guys doing?!

Eric : Uncle Kai, I'm sorry, we have to do this!

The eight of them jumped off the ship, and managed to use their dragons and fly away from the Colossus.

Nina : Guys, we have to Go!

Jay : What do you think we're trying to do here, Nina!

Nina : No, I meant the Tea!

Jay : Of course, Mystake must be-

Kai : Don't keep talking, just do it already!

Jay grabbed the tea bag from Nina and they opened it.

Liam : Traveler's Tea. . .

Kai : Look alive kids, we're heading to another Realm. . .

On The Skytram. . .

Just as the others disappeared. . .

The Colossus finally crushed the entire ship. . .

Princess Lydia : Nooooooooo!

Charlie : No. . .

Lydia fell to her knees and she started crying.

Harumi : Lydia. . .

Princess Lydia : Mommy, this isn't the end of this... Endings, are just New Beginnings... Even without my Powers, or my Friends, I'm gonna fight on, Because a Ninja... Never Quits.

Charlie then grabbed Lydia's hand and prepared to jump.

Princess Lydia : Before I go Mommy, I want you to answer this, you once said that The Greatest Villain was the one who got away, and I had said the same thing, so what am I?

Charlie wrapped his arms around Lydia's waist, and they jumped off the Skytram, and Charlie opened the parachute, and it was the symbol for The Secret Ninja Force ( Which was the logo on the back of the Young Ninja's Suits that come from The LEGO Ninjago Movie ), and Lydia was using it as the Symbol for the Resistance.

Lydia smiled and said something her mother swore she could hear.

Princess Lydia : How's that for karma?

Charlie giggled as he hung onto to Lydia so she wouldn't fall.

Charlie : It's okay Liddy... I'm still here with you.

Tears continued to come out of Lydia's eyes as she and Charlie landed on a boat, and on it was Brenden, Nya, Liv, Eric, Hazel, and Misako.

Lydia was on her knees and trying to stand up.

Misako : My Grandbaby. . .

Princess Lydia : Grammy.

Lydia threw herself into her Grandmother's arms, glad that she was okay, and Liv looked at Lydia.

Liv : Lydia, where's Liam?

Tears formed in Lydia's eyes as she shook her head, and tears then left Liv's eyes, as she bit her lip, and broke the blade off of one of her daggers.

Liv : My Father... will regret this.

Nya then hit punched the wooden pole in the middle of the boat...

Nya : I can't believe this... after this long, I lose everything.

Brenden : What about Eric, I saw him jump off the ship.

Liv : Who knows where he went, we just have to wait and see if he comes back.

Charlie : We gotta find somewhere to keep our heads down though, Garmadon will be looking... for all of us.

Princess Lydia : But then we need to find a way to stop him.

Eric : We will Princess, when you're safe.

Liv : He's right Lydia, he wants these Masks, and for some reason he also wants you, and jumping off the Skytram, and escaping, that was part of Brenden's Plan, we can't break it.

Brenden : They're right Lydia, for now we just find a place in the city to hide, since they'll be looking for us.

Princess Lydia : Okay. . .

Just then they heard a whistle from the other side of the canal.

Brenden : There they are.

And they saw it was Montgomery and Alizah.

Princess Lydia : Brother. . .

Lydia stood up and Montgomery tightly hugged his twin sister, glad she was okay but then he hit her head pretty hard.

Princess Lydia : Ouchie.

Montgomery : You even think of facing him alone again, I'll be the one to throw you through a wall, just to bring you away from the fight myself.

Princess Lydia : It won't come to that.

Montgomery : It better not.

Montgomery hugged his sister, and she returned the hug, while Liv sat down and hugged Alizah.

Liv : Alizah, your brother. . .

Alizah : I know, you don't need to tell Me.

Montgomery then hugged his grandmother, and Misako returned the hug.

Montgomery : Grammy, I missed you.

Misako : I missed you too, Montgomery.

Charlie : There's only one thing left for us to do now, and that's stay out of sight.

The boat continued going down the river and into the dark night in Ninjago City. . .


Next Time on The Masks of Garmadon : One Week has passed since Garmadon took over the city, with Killow and Harumi still with the Sons of Garmadon trying to find a weakness, with Ultraviolet become suspicious of Harumi's heart with Lydia, ignoring the fact that she's Lydia's Mother, while Lydia doesn't believe she can lead the Resistance when the whole mess Ninjago is in was her fault, and her friends are gone, with Hazel suggesting that they go to the Elemental Masters, but without a single trace of Skylor, they don't know if they can trust them, but when The Sons of Garmadon corner them in the wreckage of The Jade Empress, Old Friends come to their aid... and assure Lydia, there's always hope in her darkest hour.

Will Garmadon capture Lydia? Who will save The Young Ninja? Will Harumi and Killow return?

To Be Continued. . . . .
