Jay:

"Uh. Hello? Is anyone there? Nya! Where are you?!" Jay called out to the shadows that surrounded him.

"Aw man! It was a trap! That ain't right!" Jay said, as he walked around, slightly trembling.

Then he heard laughter, as he quickly looked around and held his Platinum Lightning Nunchunks firmly.

"Uh! UH! W-Who's there?!" Jay asked, his voice trembling.

"Oh man, this is going to be too easy," a voice said from the shadows.

Jay gulped, and then asked, "D-Darkness?!"

Laughter echoed all around, and then Shadow Darkness said, from within the shadows,

"You guessed quite right Blue ninja. Your smarter than you look."

"Hey!" Jay said, annoyed, but then he cringed when Shadow Darkness laughed again.

"Are you afraid boy?" Shadow Darkness whispered next to Jay's ear.

"AH!" Jay yelped, as he turned around quickly, but Shadow Darkness vanished.

"What a scared little boy you are... This is going to be great," Shadow Darkness' voice echoed from the shadows.

Then, from the shadows, emerged old enemies and new enemies that the ninja had faced: Some of them were Serpentine, some of them were from the Stone army, some of them were Vampires and minions, and some of them were the Lizarians. All of them had red glowing eyes and darker tones of color on their outer appearances.

"Oh man! OH MAN!" Jay said in fear, as he backed up from the surrounding enemies, and a shadow wall came up from behind and stopped him from moving any further away.

"What the? Come on! That's not fair!" Jay complained, and then his voice was silenced when he saw glowing red and purple eyes of various sizes watching him from the shadows.

"Aw man! Oh no! OH NO! OH NOOOO!" Jay screamed out when he saw that he was surrounded.

"Ha ha ha ha ha! Look how scared you are! How did YOU even become a ninja?! Your such a failure in inventions, your scared so easily, AND your loud! What an annoyance you are to your team. Kai agrees with that, and I bet even Nya agrees with that," Shadow Darkness said from above the shadow wall.

"Y-Your wrong! They don't think that! And I'm NOT a failure!" Jay retorted.

"Oh yeah? Then why did Kai want to burn you alive before? Why does Flare smack you over the head? Why do the other guys make fun of you 'mouth of lightning'? And why haven't you created an invention that actually works for more than two seconds or without your father's help? Face it boy! You are where you came from, and that's a junkyard!" Shadow Darkness said, as he started to laugh again.

Jay looked up at Shadow Darkness in surprise, and then he looked at the crowd of enemies that were ready to beat him down. He slowly started tilting his head downward and thought,

'It... It's true... I've only annoyed everyone with my jokes, and I barely keep my mouth shut... and my inventions haven't worked so well unless someone helped me... I... I really am just... junk...'

Jay closed his eyes and lowered his head in certain defeat, as the enemies came closer to him, and Shadow Darkness continued to laugh.

Nya:

"Jay! Jay! What just happened?" Nya called out for the Blue ninja.

"So worried about others, yet you haven't worried about yourself?" A voice spoke from the shadows that surrounded Nya.

"Darkness?" Nya asked, as she took out her sword in one hand, and held an 'S' shaped shuriken in the other.

"Ha! What are you going to do with those toys? Then again, what would you be without them? Actually, WHO would you be without them?" Shadow Darkness asked, as he appeared a few feet from Nya.

Nya's eyes widened at what he was saying, but then they half closed as she held onto her weapons firmly.

"What are you talking about? I am me, with or without my weapons. They are an extension of myself," Nya replied.

"But in your case, you would be completely useless without them. Your brother knows that for a fact, since he had to save your life when you were first kidnapped. And even Marcell knew that when she first met you. Once she disabled your Samurai X suit, you were useless," Shadow Darkness said, and then he disappeared.

Nya looked around for him, and then she felt a hand on her shoulder, as Shadow Darkness whispered,

"I can still see the battle scars from when Ryan fought you. Even though your weapons were upgraded, that doesn't make a difference if YOUR the problem."

Nya tried to attack Shadow Darkness, but he vanished again. However, a shadow claw grabbed Nya's sword and sunk into the ground with it. Then another claw grabbed her shuriken, while another one grabbed her hat off her head, and both sunk into the ground.

"Hey!" Nya said, as she tried to reach down, but the claws disappeared too quickly.

"Now what can you do?" Shadow Darkness asked from the shadows, as dark Lizarians rose from the ground like zombies, as they slowly came after Nya.

Nya backed away from them, realizing that she had no weapons to fight with.

"That... It doesn't matter if I don't have any weapons! I can still fight!" Nya said, as she stood in a fighting stance, although she was a bit shaken by the mob coming towards her.

"I can sense your fear. You know you won't survive. You know you've been a nuisance to the others when it really counted, like: when you were kidnapped by the Skeletons and forced Kai to pick up the Golden sword, when you were held hostage by the Stone army, and when you became evil and even attacked your own comrades. Just accept it girl... your nobody without your weapons. Your just a waste of space. Like how you are right now," Shadow Darkness said, and then he started laughing.

All of the dark Lizarians started laughing as well, which made Nya back away from them.

"No. Stop it. Stop laughing! Please! I'm not a nobody! I'm not a waste of space! Please!" Nya said, as her voice revealed that she was becoming more frightened each moment longer she was there.

"Waste of Space. Nothing. Nobody. Weak. Little. Nuisance," Shadow Darkness' voice echoed all of these words around the area, as his laugh was also heard.

Nya tried to cover her ears, but the voices of Shadow Darkness and the dark Lizarians' laughter had grown louder, as she ended up on her knees.

"No. No. NO! It's a lie! It's a LIE!" Nya pleaded with herself, as she tried not to hear the voices all around her and in her head.

"AAAHHH!" Nya screamed out in fear and agony, as the laughter continued.

Sensei Garmadon:

Sensei Garmadon was calmly walking through the shadow mist that surrounded him, trying to find a way out of it. He felt like he was being watched, but he kept his composure, as he waited to see if the person or thing was going to reveal their self. As Sensei Garmadon continued walking around, he noticed a light ahead that was like a spotlight, and it was showing something that was on the ground. Sensei Garmadon approached the thing that the spotlight was showing, and it was a small, brown cardboard box. He knelt down and opened the box to see a note and a couple of blank papers and pictures under it. He read the note, that was written in black ink, and it said,

"They said you were evil before, but isn't trying to woo someone else's wife evil too?"

Sensei Garmadon tilted his head in question, and then he reached in the box and pulled out the pictures that were there. His eyes widened when he saw that the pictures showed Sensei Wu and Misako holding hands and hugging. He looked at the pictures for a moment longer, but then he turned his face away, as he placed them back into the box and closed it. Then he stood up and started walking away from the box, while he was breathing in and out as slowly as he could.

Then he saw another spotlight ahead of him, and he drew closer to it. There was another small cardboard box, but it was green instead of brown. Sensei Garmadon signed, and then he knelt down and opened the box. There was another note, written in burgundy ink, and it read:

"They gave up on you and were planning to move on. Even your son knows about that."

Then he reached in the box and pulled out the pictures that were under the note. They showed Lloyd seeing Misako and Sensei Wu together in surprise. Sensei Garmadon tensed up while he held the pictures, but then he relaxed and breathed in and out. He set the pictures and note back into the box, closed it, and then he stood up.

Sensei Garmadon continued on his way, when he found another cardboard box under a spotlight, but the box was red. He knelt down and slowly opened the box. There was another note, that was written in red ink, and it said,

"How can you trust your brother? He wanted to steal your wife when you weren't looking. And even your wife was siding with those thoughts. She's your wife. He's your brother."

Sensei Garmadon signed sadly, and then he noticed another note, that was written in purple ink, and it said,

"Or would you prefer your son to call Sensei Wu 'father?' Did he protect your son when he was captured by Serpentine? Did he try to fight the darkness when the Overlord possessed him? Did he try to save your son's girlfriend when Darkness tried to capture her? Was he there when Lloyd had to fight Darkness by himself and lost? Who is he to try and take what's yours? Who is he to try and take your place?"

Sensei Garmadon crumbled the two notes after he read them. He threw them away from himself, and then he looked down sadly, as he started to realize that there was truth written in those notes.

'Wu didn't try to steal them... but why was he so close to Misako? I know I've made mistakes in the past, and I have regrets... but she is my wife, and Lloyd is my son... I would do anything for them. He can't actually take that from me? … He can't... right?' Sensei Garmadon thought, and then he noticed a dark presence was close by him.

He turned around and looked up to see a shadow of Darkness, looking at him with a slight smirk and vague eyes.

"So Sensei Garmadon... what do you think? You think he can't steal them? You think he didn't want to? Well it doesn't really look like it from those pictures," Shadow Darkness said, and Sensei Garmadon turned away from him and looked down at the empty box.

Then Shadow Darkness came closer to Sensei Garmadon, and he knelt down next to him as he placed his hand on his shoulder.

"You have made mistakes in your past, and have done pretty devious things, but it wasn't your fault entirely. You were bitten by the Great Devourer, a serpent who's venom could turn even the purest of hearts evil. You have a valid reason for those mistakes and evil acts, but your brother... what excuse does he have? He's supposed to be good and doing the right thing... he has the choice. You didn't... so I wonder..." Shadow Darkness said, as he disappeared.

Then Sensei Garmadon heard Shadow Darkness' voice say, from the shadows around him,

"Who is really evil? You... or your brother, a thief who takes his freedom of choice for granted? You at least changed, but he might not have..."

Sensei Garmadon's shoulders started to shake, as he held his hands in tight fists.

"They called you a traitor... they said that you were bad... they said that you had to be stopped... Who was really evil? WHO WAS REALLY BAD?! WAS IT NOT THEM?!" Shadow Darkness said in a more monstrous voice.

Sensei Garmadon started to tremble, as pools of liquid began to form around his eyes, while he was gritting his teeth.

"They banished you! THEY BANISHED YOU! Threw you away because you weren't like them! They got RID OF YOU because you weren't LIKE THEM! Because you were different WITHOUT A CHOICE! They should pay. YOU had to pay for what YOU DID by being banished and forcefully possessed by the Overlord. WHY SHOULDN'T THEY PAY!" Shadow Darkness said, as dark shadows formed around Sensei Garmadon.

Then Sensei Garmadon started to tremble even more, as the dark shadows started to latch themselves on him and pull him downward. Sensei Garmadon noticed this and he tried to pull himself up, but the dark shadows continued to pull him downward, as Sensei Garmadon's vision started to fade to black. He saw his family before his eyes, as they were whisked away by the dark shadows.

"No! Give them back! Let me go! NOOOO!" Sensei Garmadon screamed out, as the dark shadows continued to drag him downward, and Shadow Darkness stood above where he was being dragged to, with a dark grin on his face.
