A/N: Hello! Umm, let's get onto the story… also will be starting a new series soon…

Chapter Three: Zane goes M.I.A.…
I watched through our security cameras as Nya gave the Princess a tour of the Bounty. Jay was quickly cleaning up his dirty clothes that were scattered everywhere, while Cole was lifting weights in the training room. Zane was whipping up a quick dinner for us, while Lloyd was yapping his ear off. In other words, I was alone in the bridge for now. I folded my arms as I frowned, going over who would have access to the information about when we were guarding the Oni Mask in hopes of finding a clue to who our mystery spy is.
I'm drawing a blank sis. What do we do?
Calm down for one… we don't have much info on who it is yet. Relax bro, we will take them down like we always do.
I frowned, not sure I believed Nya on that little detail. We were too comfortable, confident even in our abilities. What if this was the one syndicate that we couldn't bring down?
Kai, stop being so negative. And yes, you are broadcasting to me. If you don't stop it, I will tell Lloyd!
I winced, but didn't respond back to her. Fingers twitching, I pulled out my worksheets and worked on my writing ability. That could always use work…
….
I frowned as my brothers argued with each other over why the Sons of Garmadon would want with the two Oni Masks. Nya glanced over at me briefly, before turning to face the others. "You guys know that there are three Masks, not two, right?"
"What!?"
I calmly spoke up, my voice firm. "There are three Oni Masks. The Oni Mask of Vengeance, the Oni Mask of Deception, and the Lost Oni Mask of Hatred."
Jay run his fingers through his hair, worry dancing in his eyes. "Great…you two by chance don't know where it is supposed to be at, do you?"
"No. The only thing we do know is that only one with Oni blood can remove the last mask from its resting place." Nya responded calmly, a determined gleam dancing in her eyes.
I groaned as I pinched the bridge of my nose in exasperation. "Nya…for the last time…the Oni Spy doesn't exist. It's not possible. Everybody knows that the Oni are creatures of the dark, pure evil, the idea that there was one that was nice and friendly with the First Spinjitzu Master is plain crazy."
"Is not."
"Is too."
"Is not!"
"Is too!"
"Is…" "Stop fighting! Or else I'll tell Maya!" Lloyd interrupted me, pushing us apart.
We mumbled our apologies, slinking away from him. Lloyd took a deep, calming, breath, turning to face Zane, Jay, and Cole. "You three are coming with me. The police can't get the thief they caught to talk. We're going to go pay him a visit and learn who exactly they are getting their orders from. Got it?"
"Yes Lloyd." They spoke in unison, mock saluting him.
Lloyd rolled his eyes at them, before turning to face us. "You two guard the princess and figure out who the spy is."
"Aye captain."
"We are not pirates!"
….
I sliced through two of our practice dummies, vaguely wondering if Nya had finished checking up on the princess. Whirling around, I caught the sparring bot that was sneaking up on me with the edge of my sword, slicing it in half.
"Good…you're here. You need to come see this." Lloyd materialized in the doorway, amusement dancing in his eyes.
"Umm…ok." I turned off the training equipment, sheathing my sword.
….
I sniggered as I watched Cole sing Glow Worm on the stage at the popular, new, karaoke club, Laughy's, a large group of members of the Sons of Garmadon jeering at him. "Please tell me that someone is recording this!"Kai! "Don't yell at me Nya…I know you are interested in this too."
The Princess frowned, confused about how I knew that Nya was scowling at the back of my head without me seeing her. Jay gestured to the controls, a huge smile on his face. "Oh, I am recording this…and making several copies too."
Lloyd coughed into his fist, a small smile flickering behind it. "Sorry about this Princess….we're normally far more serious about our jobs than this…"
"Wait…we are?" Thwack. I rubbed my head, wondering where Lloyd had gotten Sensei's staff from. "Ow…you could have just told us you wanted us on our best behavior with the princess on board."
Lloyd glared at me, just as Cole's fake mustache suddenly fell off. One minute later and Zane, who was mysteriously absent during the entire performance, still hadn't shown up to aid Cole, despite his calling for him to help.
Lloyd sprinted towards the door that leads down to the Bounty's garage. "Pixal! What exactly is Cole and Zane's plan here?!"
Pixal's voice filled the air, anxiety flooding it. "I do not know. Zane contacted me and told me that he had a plan…but he said that we have to trust him on this."
"Great…everyone fall out! Nya stay behind to guard the princess. We need to save our teammates!" Lloyd flung the door open as he charged down the stairs.
…
I dodged ten swords aimed at, before kicking the gang members to the side. I could see Cole struggling against his captors as they dragged him off. Just then a funny looking one wearing a purple and silver jumper with a dark grey kerchief covering his mouth leapt forward, punching I right in the mouth, even as an inhumane screech escaped him, deafening me. Writhing away from him, I clapped my hands over my ears in an attempt to block him out and protect my ears. Jay leapt over me, kicking the guy away from me.
Crouching in front of me, he glanced over. "Are you alright there, Kai?"
I nodded fervently at him, even as who my assaulter must be slammed into me. Kai focus…don't tell the others about your discovery until you are all alone. We cannot risk the Sons of Garmadon attacking him.
I barreled through two more members, glad for my connection with her. On it… let's just hope that the others don't hurt him too badly…
I felt Nya's amusement flood me even as I knocked a few more members down before spotting Lloyd and Jay chasing the weirdo from last night. Breaking at a sprint, I quickly rushed off to join them.
I arrived at the scene just in time to see the funny looking one use a shruiken to pin Lloyd down…without actually hurting him. Jay launched forward, infuriated as he whipped his nunchucks back. Lloyd pulled himself free and tackled Jay to the ground even as the enemy escaped.
"Jay, no! Not now. We have to trust Zane." Lloyd panted as he struggled to keep the lithe ninja from escaping.
"Zane just let all that to ha…"
I interrupted Jay, seizing him by the arm. "That was Zane that pinned Lloyd down right then. He is paying them back. They set a spy on us; we set a spy on them."
"Oh." Jay ducked his head in embarrassment, surprised that he hadn't recognized one of his own brothers.
Lloyd turned to face me, slowly releasing Jay. "How did you figure it out?"
"He took advantage of my hearing… only no one outside of us even knows about it." I pulled Lloyd back up to his feet, releasing Jay all of the way.
"So…what now?" Jay scrambled to his feet.
A/N: Done! Soo, as I said, I have a new series called Do you know who I am. I am still working on a working title for the first book. Each book is a different season. See ya'll around! Also, way to go Zane for letting Kai and Lloyd figure it out easily.
Review!
