After explaining the conditions of the other ninja and kunoichi, Lucy, Lloyd, and Raven were very worried and surprised by what they heard.
"What?! How did all of that just happen?! Are they alright now?!" Lloyd asked, as he stood up from his seat.
"Lloyd, calm down. They're in good hands. Reine and Terrin immediately took action in helping them," Sensei Garmadon said.
"B-But will they be okay?" Raven asked, as Lloyd slowly sat back down.
"It is too early to tell, but I'm sure the ninja and kunoichi will pull through. They have to," Sensei Wu said, as he looked down.
"Isn't there something we can do?" Lucy asked.
"We can only wait and protect them until they heal," Misako said.
"At least you three are alright," Marcell said.
"Um, about that..." Lucy said, and trailed off while rubbing the back of her head.
"What is it?" Sensei Garmadon asked.
Lloyd and Raven looked down at the table sadly, and then Lucy replied,
"Um, as Lloyd and Raven told me... Darkness locked their powers."
A collective gasp filled the room.
"He locked your powers?" Silva asked, with an eyebrow raised.
"Yes," Raven replied to Silva.
"I was trying to protect Raven from an attack Darkness was using on her, but because I handled the attack to re-direct it, my powers were locked too," Lloyd explained, as he looked up.
"Then how are we suppose to fight the lizarians? Or even defeat Darkness? Lucy is the only elemental user on our side, and the ninja and kunoichi barely managed on their own," Silva asked.
There was silence in the room. Then Sensei Wu said,
"We can't give up yet. There must be a way to unlock your powers again."
"But how? There aren't any Platinum weapons that could unlock our powers," Lloyd said.
"And the Viporeon Pearl, I mean, the Purple Ninja's Orb hasn't shown any change since it gave me the other purple suit. I don't think it can unlock my powers," Raven said, as she looked up.
"There has to be a way," Misako said.
"We have to think of something. We don't know how long Ryan could put up a fight with Darkness, and we don't have time to waste," Sensei Garmadon said.
"Time..." Marcell said, as she looked outside, since the sliding door was wide open.
"What is it sis?" Lucy asked Marcell.
"Do you guys know how the First Purple and Green Ninja unlocked their powers?" Marcell asked, while still looking outside.
"No. We only know who the First Purple Ninja is but that's about it," Lloyd replied.
"Is? The First Purple Ninja is still alive?" Sensei Garmadon asked.
"... The First Purple Ninja... is Darkness," Raven replied, as she looked away with her eyes closed.
A more quieter gasp filled the room because most of them were too shocked to make a sound.
"Darkness is the First Purple Ninja?! How can that be?" Sensei Garmadon asked, although he knew that the others didn't know the answer either.
"Maybe we can find out what's his deal, and how he and the First Green Ninja unlocked their powers or whatever," Marcell said.
"What? But they were around like... a lot of years ago, and Darkness isn't going to tell us anytime soon. How are we suppose to find out?" Lucy asked.
"She's right. There are no other scrolls that mention them besides the ones that Silva had," Misako said.
"And I don't have any others," Silva added.
"We don't need any scrolls. Not with Time Sensei," Marcell said, as she turned back towards the others.
"Time Sensei?" Raven asked.
"Yes, Time Sensei. I worked with her awhile back. She was the one who created the Gem of Ages," Marcell replied.
A collective gasp of 'wow' filled the room.
"Y-You mean the lady with the white hair who gave me the gem... that was..." Raven trailed off.
"Yes. That was Time Sensei. She looks great for her age, but then again, I'm not even sure how old she is," Marcell said, as she put her hand to her chin to think.
"We can think about that later. What is it that Time Sensei can do that can help us?" Lloyd asked.
"Oh right. Well, Time Sensei, hence her title, has an affinity with time. When I last spoke to her, she possessed the Gem of Ages, and she was creating some sort of device that could show her events from the past, and even events that were happening in that moment in the present. She was also thinking about creating a future-seeing device, but she said that that one would be a problem... Anyway, I'm sure that Time Sensei would be able to show or even tell you how the First Purple and Green Ninja unlocked their powers, and maybe you two will be able to do it too," Marcell replied, as she put her hands on the table.
"Will that work?" Misako pondered out loud.
"It's our only other option at this point," Sensei Garmadon said.
"Marcell, do you know where Time Sensei is?" Sensei Wu asked.
"-Sign- Sadly, I haven't been in contact with Time Sensei since she gave the Gem of Ages to Raven. Of course, I didn't realize she gave the gem to her, but the reason she hired me to help her was because she needed me to protect her from Carlo," Marcell said.
"Carlo? Is that the guy that you helped protect the Ninja from and then decided to betray me?" Silva asked, and Marcell nodded and said,
"Yeah, and that's when you threatened me for my sister's sake."
"Oh... yeah," Silva said, as she looked down at the table and rubbed the back of her head.
"Now now ladies, let's be civilized," Misako said, as Marcell and Silva agreed with a nod.
"Why did Time Sensei need protection from Carlo?" Sensei Garmadon asked Marcell.
"Because Carlo wanted the Gem of Ages, and Time Sensei was gathering supplies for her time devices, which would have left her vulnerable if she alone was carrying those supplies and the gem," Marcell replied.
"But if you don't know where Time Sensei is, how is she supposed to help us?" Lloyd asked.
"Because I know the right fellow who would know where she is. After all, the only reason he would have came for Raven and the gem is if he found Time Sensei and realized that she didn't have it," Marcell said with a smirk.
The others' eyes widened, as they realized who Marcell was talking about.
"Then let's head straight to Pulverize Peak Town," Sensei Wu said, and the others nodded.
