Chapter 6

Back in the sewers, in the corridor with the pool of venom, Garmadon was waiting patiently for his new ninja's to return. He smiles to see them walking from the hallway, but it disappears to see them empty handed.

"How did you not captured them?" he asked angrily.

"They distracted us with a decoy and escaped." Kai exclaimed.

"Find them, find them." he ordered.

"Yes master." they all said and left.

"Garmadon!" said a voice, "What have you done with my ninja's?"

Garmadon turned around to see his brother and Kai's sister in a cage above the venom.

"I've made them my pawns to help me take control on Ninjago." he replied, "And once they return with my son and nephew, they'll be at my side and you won't be able to stop me."

Lucas woke up with a jolt. He nearly fell off the saddle of his dragon, but catches the side and pulled himself back to the seat. Lucas dozed off after they fight he had with his brother's and was relieved to see Lloyd was still with him and took the reins to continue flying. He looks at the ground to find the fog covered forest till it caught his eyes. He pulls the reins and Storm responded to fly down and land in the surrounding fog. They jumped off his back and Lucas used his sai's to move the fog away for Lloyd to see.

"So what now?" Lloyd asked.

"Like I said before. We are going to hide here till we can think of a plan." said Lucas.

Lloyd sighed and walked off for awhile. Lucas checked in his pouch to check on his supplies and saw he was running low. He sighed, since he doesn't have the ingredients to make more, and decided to use them wisely. Lucas heard Lloyd calling his name and saw the kid ninja returning with two apples in his hands.

"Hey Lucas, I found an apple tree. Here catch." Lloyd says and tosses him one of the apples.

Lucas catches the apple. But before he took a bite, he took a closer look at the apple, and his eyes grew wide to see what apple it was. He quickly tosses the apple aside, and looked at Lloyd who was about to take a bite of his apple. He drew out one of his sai's and throws it near Lloyd, knocking the apple out of his hand and pierced into a tree. Lloyd looked at the sai that pierced his apple and looked at Lucas with his arms crossed.

"You have a real knack throwing those don't you?" he asked.

"Hey I happen to know these woods better than you and those apples are poisonious." Lucas stated.

Lloyd stopped being angry and looked at the apple. He gulped as a thought ran through his head on may have happened to him he took a bite. It would have been like Snow White, but without the kiss. Lucas looked at his cousin but didn't grew mad at him, for he didn't know. But in the back of his head, a voice in his head telling him what the others told him about Lloyd back then.

"But I know that you're the one who unleashed the serpentine's." he says.

"Don't remind me." Lloyd sighed.

"Tell me Lloyd, if your father is with the serpentine's, where would they most likely hide?"

Lloyd thought and ponder for a minute till he came to a thought.

"Well they would be hiding at The Lost City of Ouroboros." he says still thinking, "But they haven't been there since the Great Devourer was unleashed, and there have been numerous reports of serpentine spottings in the sewers. But when we went down there, we didn't see any."

"Well the sewers are like mazes, but it's a fifty-fifty chance our brother's and sister will be there, along with our father's."

"So you're saying..."

"Yep. We're going to Ninjago City to find our family and hopefully a cure for our brother's. Because by now, they'll realize it was a decoy and will be searching for us."

Lucas looked at him with serious look, and saw Lloyd drew down his hood, ran to Storm and hop onto its back. Lucas walked to his dragon and looked down at something that caught his grey eyes. He knelt down and picked up an odd shaped leaf, and smiled for what kind of leaf it was. He looked around the area and found more lying around him. He grabbed a small handful and carefully placed them in his pouch, threw down his hood, grabbed his sai, and walked to Lloyd and Storm. Lloyd watched in curiousity as he saw his cousin picking up leaves and putting them in his pouch. Lucas hopped onto Storm's back and took the reins.

"Alright boy, stick to the clouds and fly us towards Ninjago City." he commanded.

The dragon roared in replied and flapped its wings. After one flap, they were airborne. The dragon broke through the fog, and flew into the clouds. Lucas steered Storm to the direction he needed, and they flew towards Ninjago City.
