A few hours later, Ronin was back in Stiix as he walked along the streets, before turning into an alleyway. As he walked along it, he looks behind his back a bit. "Ninjago!" Someone yelled out as he looked ahead to see someone, doing Spinjitzu, which was silver pink, knocking him down before the attacker dispersed, revealing to be Blake.

"Blake?" Ronin asked. "You know Spinjitzu now?"

"Learnt it just last night." He soon grabs hold of Ronin, grabs the Sword of Sanctuary from behind his back and holds at his neck. "Now, I'm taking this sword back and I'm gonna find that map so that the Ninja can find the Tomb of the First Spinjitzu Master." He looks at the blade to see Ronin's next attack. He would pull out his lighter and ignite it on Blake's gi, causing him to light up.

As Ronin was about to ignite his lighter, Blake quickly grabbed it and throws it away. "Hey, that's a good lighter!"

"Quit smoking then, you cancer stick inhaler."

"Why does everybody keep calling me that? Look, if I give Morro the sword, my debt with the Soul Archer will be collected and he might even release Lloyd."

Blake soon moves back and places Ronin down before holding the tip of the sword at his neck. "You better be telling the truth."

"I swear it."

"I'll be close by." He throws the sword in the air before catching it by the blade and holds the handle out to Ronin, who takes it.

A few minutes later, Ronin heads up to the remains of his shop as Blake was around the corner before he heads in and Blake comes up to the window to look through it.

Inside, Ronin closes the door as Ghoultar passes by. "Good evening!" Morro said to Ronin. He saw that Morro was sitting on a throne, between Bansha and Soul Archer. "You're late!"

"And goodnight!" Ghoultar said, coming up behind Ronin, as he turned to him.

"I like what you've done with the place." Ronin said as he looked around. "Pretty gutsy making your hideout right here in Stiix. With this much water, they'd never come looking for you here."

"I've never been afraid of anything." Morro replied.

Ghoultar looks out the window as Blake had quickly moved his head away before he takes the Sword of Sanctuary from behind Ronin's back and looks at it. "The sword is no fake." He said as he came up to Morro and Blake sticks his head at the window again.

Morro scoffed as he took it. "For once the crook makes good." He soon gets off the throne and comes up to a nearby table where the scroll of Airjitzu laid, with a map facing the front. He soon stabs the sword into it and looks at the reflection to see a red 'X' appear on it. "The Tomb of the First Spinjitzu Master."

"Now, what about my soul?" Ronin asked. "The deal was you'd remove the curse and free me."

"You can have your soul, but the deal has changed. I want the Ninja too."

"Whoa, now, hold on. A deal's a deal. But what do you care about the Ninja? I thought you said you weren't afraid of them."

"I'm not. But our Preeminent requires some...safeguards." The ghosts laugh at Ronin.

"Forget it. I'll keep my cursed soul. The sword's one thing, but my friends are another."

"Since when do you have friends?" Bansha asked as they laugh again. "I heard you abandoned the Yellow Ninja on the Dark Island to die."

"It was business. And I regret it every single day." He soon starts to walk away, before Ghoultar stops him.

"Where do you think you're going? We still have a need for you." Ghoultar restrains him as Morro looks back at the sword. "The Realm Crystal will be mine!" A small clatter was heard, causing him to turn to the window, only to find nothing. "Stupid rats."

Outside, Blake moves away from the window the moment Morro turned to it and sighed as he shook his head. "Note to self: Never trust a mercenary." He said as he soon looked again and is shocked at something.

At Steep Wisdom, it was dusk as the Ninja, Cirrus, Dragon, Misako and Tania were in the shop. "Well, obviously, he's taken the sword to Morro." Jay said.

"And Blake must've gone after him." Gewuji said.

"But where's Morro?" Zane asked.

"Yeah, he could be anywhere."

"Nya, this is all your fault!" Cole yelled. "If you're always one of us-"

"I'm sorry!" Nya yelled, cutting him off. "I should have told you when I first suspected Ronin would steal it."

"Hey, don't yell at my sister!" Kai yelled. "True, she suspected Ronin would steal the sword, but Blake also suspected."

"He should have told us." Maggie replied.

"ENOUGH!" Geoff yelled, causing them all to become shocked at his sudden outburst. "We all knew the path to save Lloyd was never going to be a straight line. We were all fooled by Ronin, but that doesn't make us fools. At a time like this, we mustn't butt heads, but put our heads together. Cole, apologise to Nya, now!"

Jay sniggers before Cole could have a chance to talk. "I'm sorry." He said. "You said 'butt heads'."

"Don't interrupt."

Cole soon sighed. "Nya, I'm sorry." He said.

Before Nya could forgive him, Zane's falcon chirps as it soon showed an image of Ronin. "I can't talk loud, but I wanted to let you know, Nya, you were right." He whispered. "Morro didn't hold up his end of the bargain. And Misako was right too. The scroll and sword did reveal the tomb. I know where it's located. I know you don't have the sword, but I know you can beat them to the tomb." He soon gasped. "They're coming."

"Where is it?" Gewuji asked. "Where's the tomb?"

"The Caves of Despair! The tomb is in..." The message starts to cut off. "Caves...Despair!" The transmission soon cuts off.

"Caves of Despair?" Dragon asked. "We've been there. I don't remember seeing any tomb."

"But there are still miles of unexplored mines." Misako replied. "It could be there."

"Why should we believe him?" Maggie asked. "It could be a trap."

"We don't have the scroll and we don't have the sword." Kai replied. "With Lloyd's life at stake, what other choice do we have?" They soon nod at each other.

"We're in." Cole said.

"Fool me once, shame on you." Nya replied. "Fool me twice, shame on me. What good will it do us if it's all just a set up?"

"The Ninja are right." Dragon said. "Even a misstep could be a step in the right direction. We cannot afford to do nothing. The Ninja will go. As for Nya, well, you're still not ready." Nya groans. As they head for the Bounty, Dragon comes up to Geoff. "Hey, about what you did back there. I mean it, this time, I-"

"I said it before and I'll say it again." Geoff replied. "I'm not ready for the title of Master just yet."

Back in Stiix, Ronin looked dazed as Ghoultar filmed him. "It's a wrap." He said. Ronin soon collapses as they all laugh at him before Morro's ghost suddenly emerged from him.

"Pretty good impression." Ronin said with a dry throat. "But they'll never buy it was me."

"We shall see." Morro replied.

"You're no Green Ninja." Lloyd was suddenly heard as Morro looked up to see him in a cage, hanging from the roof. "The Green Ninja would never need to lie!"

"Oh, you won't be the Green Ninja for long. Save your strength, 'cause I'll be needing it."

As he talked, Blake moves along the roof and Lloyd sees him, but he puts a finger to his lips. "Prepare for a voyage. We head to the tomb at dawn."

"What about Ronin?" Soul Archer asked.

"Leave him. He's worthless now."

Blake soon jumps in screaming as he grabs hold of Morro's hands and he suddenly enters his body. "What are you doing?" Blake said it with Morro's voice.

"You won't be needing Lloyd anymore." Blake said in his normal voice.

"Let me out of your body at once!"

"No! I will hold you in it by force!" He soon got down on his knees, had one hand on his chest and one on the ground.

Blake's body soon turns green, like Lloyd when Morro possessed him and his gi changes into the same outfit as his hair remains the same and he stands up, smiling. "Then, you might be useful to me after all." He soon stood up and looked at the three ghosts, who stare at him. "What are you looking at?" He then points to Lloyd. "Get him down."

At the Caves of Despair, Kai, Jay, Zane, Cole, Geoff, Gewuji and Maggie move along as much of the skeleton army's excavation equipment was still there. "The Caves of Despair." Kai said.

"This is where we first came for the Golden Weapons." Cole replied. "Back when Lloyd was working with the skeletons. It's like everything has come full circle."

"Don't say that." Jay said. "Full circle means it's coming to an end, and I don't wanna hear that before I go into the Caves of Despair! One of my least favourite words!"

"How do we even know the tomb's in there?" Geoff asked. Zane soon looks around. "Searching for clues." P.I.X.A.L. said from inside Zane's head before seeing a symbol that resembles the tomb's symbol.

A few minutes later, they find themselves at the spot where the symbol is. "The third symbol." Kai said.

"Good enough for me." Jay replied. "Let's go." They soon head into the cave.

Unaware to them all, Ghoultar was carving the symbol on a guard post and laughs evilly.
