It has been almost a month since Vania was declared Queen of Shintaro after overthrowing her father and Dragon coming out of his funk, wanting to go on another quest. Many of the escaped prisoners were recaptured and sent back to Kryptarium Prison, but some were still out there. And now, Ninjago City was getting ready for a new year, or are they? (A/N: Cue evil laughter, Vincent Price style)


Outside Borg Tower, three men, wearing kimonos and masks, one red, one green and one black, scale up the wall while carrying some rucksacks. The one with the black kimono, with some red fingernails, steps onto a ledge, but slips off. He almost falls off the wall before the man with the green kimono grabs him and straightens him. But unfortunately, it sets off an alarm, causing them to quickly climb in a nearby open window. "**** of all ****s!" The member in the green kimono muttered.


Inside, they all land on the ground before hiding into a nearby corner which also hid their shadows as three Nindroids come in, holding laser rifles. They all look around as well as looking through thermal vision, finding nothing. "Sentry 84 to Silver Ninja." One of the Nindroids said into his head. "Code 265, false alarm."

"Copy that." Blake replied through the Nindroids as the alarm stopped blaring. "Get back to your post."

"Yes, sir." As they were about to leave, the men in kimonos, that had foil in front of them that disrupted their thermal images, emerge from the shadows and grab hold of the Nindroids. "Alert, hostile-" They were soon shut off before the alarm could go off again.


In Cyrus' personal penthouse, Cyrus was typing on a laptop as Blake was in front of him. "So, anything you need for the New Year's party?"

"Ah, no thanks." Cyrus replied. "And I think I might skip it this year."

"Again?" Blake scoffed. "Dad, you missed out on the last two parties already. At least come for a few hours and then I'll drop you back here."

"I'll think about it, but I'm a little behind schedule on my latest line of Borg products. Uh, could you go get me some coffee, please?"

"Yes, Mr. Borg." Blake sarcastically spoke as he left. "Not that I would call myself that."

Cyrus chuckled at the remark. "I am really proud he chose his own destiny." Creaking was soon heard nearby, causing him to look up. "Hello?" He wheels away from his computer and looks around. "Blake, was that you?" Creaking was heard again before he turned around and saw the three Nindroids that reported the false alarm. "Oh, it's just you three. Why aren't you at your post?" They soon move forward and grab hold of Cyrus' wheelchair. "Wha-? What are you doing?" He grabs hold of one of Nindroids and pulled at its helmet, pulling it off, but reveals the man in the red kimono. "Who the hell are you?" They quickly surround him, causing him to shriek.


A few minutes later, they take off their disguises and were back in their kimonos and masks as the man in the red kimono grabbed hold of him and puts him over his shoulder. "Okay, black and half a sugar." Blake was heard as they hear him come in, carrying two coffee cups before he notices them. "What are you doing here? Let my father go!"

The man in the red kimono throws him onto a nearby couch before getting out a Kyoketsu-shoge and charged at Blake, who quickly placed the coffee cups onto the table, puts his hood on, and raised his arms high to quickly grab hold of the man and jumped up as the man in the green kimono charged at him while holding a staff. "No one interferes!" He yelled as Blake quickly jumped into the air and used both feet to kick the man back.

Soon, the man in the black kimono charges at him, but was limping, with a pair of nunchucks, but Blake quickly grabs one of the coffee cups and hurls its contents at the man, causing him to squeal. "It's hot!" He yelled, falling back, hands on his eyes.

He turns to the man in the red kimono and backflips, kicking him in the jaw while landing on the table, kneels down, pulls down the lower part of his hood and scowls down the other coffee cup. "Okay, ready for round two." He said, throwing it aside, raises the lower part back up as he got out his axe and charged at the man in the green kimono as he charged at him, quickly blocking the staff. The man in the black kimono quickly recovered and strikes Blake, knocking him down.

"Hurry up!"

The man in the red kimono quickly picks up Cyrus. "Blake!" He yelled.

The other men get up and they all head for the door, with the man in the black kimono limping all the way, as Blake quickly gets up, grabs hold of the man in the green kimono and pulls on him until his right sleeve completely tore off before the man kicked him down. "Move!" The man in the green kimono yelled. "Move! Move!"

Blake quickly crawls over to the table and reaches underneath to press a hidden button, causing alarms to blare and steel shutters start coming down. "Borg's not gonna trap us!" The man in the red kimono yelled as they quickly rolled underneath the closing steel shutter as Blake got up and slid under it before they closed.


Out on the deck, the men grab hold of their rucksacks to get out some gliders and attach Cyrus to the one with the man in the black kimono's and jump off as Blake came over to them. "Hey, stop!" He yelled before pressing his communicator and jumped off the deck. "Soar Jet, report to my location at once!"


As he free fell, a small jet flies over to him, stops over him and he lands inside it before pressing some buttons, one of which closes the canopy. "Manual control engaged." The computer said as the Soar Jet soon took off.


In the air, the gliders fly across the city as the Soar Jet was behind them. "Pix, Cirrus, we've just had a break in at Borg Industries. Three men, all in kimonos, different colours, they're flying above the city. They have our father."

"Understood, we're locking onto the coordinates now." P.I.X.A.L. said through the console.


The gliders immediately turn left as Cyrus moved his arms about and his glasses immediately came off. "Let me down at once!" He yelled. "If this is about money or my inventions, I'd be happy to do whatever you want!"

"Shut up, old man." The man in the black kimono replied, slapping him with his backhand, leaving a bruise on him. "Be thankful that we're saving you."

"From whom?"

"You'll see."

The man in the green kimono turns to see the Soar Jet still pursuing them. "That Ninja doesn't give up." He said.

"Split up!" The man in the red kimono replied.

The three men descend into the clouds as Blake followed them before emerging from them to see them go off in different directions. "Pix, Cirrus, they've split up." Blake said. "Which one has my father?"

"I am not sure." P.I.X.A.L. replied through the console. "They've scrambled my scanners."

"Mine too." Cirrus said through the console.

"Then we'll have to split up." Blake replied before he turns left.

"I'm on my way."


The glider that turned right moves along the sky as P.I.X.A.L., in her Samurai X suit and mech, soon came up behind the glider. "I have a reading on him." She said as she moved along and the glider keeps moving along the air before making a left as the mech pursues it.

"Make sure not to destroy it." Blake replied though her communicator. "They could have our father."

"Understood." P.I.X.A.L. moves her mech's levers forward to move faster as the glider descends and P.I.X.A.L. quickly comes in front of it and grabs it, only to find it empty. "Blake, this glider's empty."

"What? How is it flying without someone controlling it?"

"Must be a remote control device."


In another part of Ninjago City, the glider that turned left moves down onto the highway as Blake continued pursuing it in his Soar Jet. "This one's got to be it." The glider moves along the road, narrowly avoiding some cars as it resumed moving along. Beeping was soon heard as Blake looked at his console to see his fuel is getting low. "Oh, not now!" He soon pressed a button. "Girls, I'm running out of fuel, I'll have to pursue it on foot."

"Copy that." P.I.X.A.L. spoke through the console. "You still got your communicator?"

"Of course. Never leave home without it."

He immediately presses a button. "Autopilot re-engaged." The computer said. "Returning to base for immediate refuel."

Blake presses another button, opening the canopy before immediately getting out and lands on a car to watch as the Soar Jet immediately takes off.


In a nearby car, a familiar man sees Blake as he soon stands up. "Look, son!" He called out to the young boy, who was asleep in the passenger seat. "It's the Silver Ninja!" He points out to Blake before he immediately took off, out of their sight.

The boy wakes up only to find nothing in the direction his father was pointing in. "Yeah right, dad." He sarcastically replied. "It wasn't even funny the first time." He soon goes back to sleep as the man looked on, in shame.

"Oh, why are they always taking off before my son could have a chance to get their autograph?"


Blake runs along the roofs of every car he came across, somersaulting over one and runs up the backdoor of a truck before somersaulting along it and jumps off of it, surprising the driver. "Little late for Ninja training there, Mr. Borg." The driver said as Blake continued moving along.

As he kept jumping from the roof of one car to another, Blake sees the glider go down close to a nearby street and immediately jumped off the highway, landing on the road in a roll, avoiding a car as it toots its horn a little before Blake enters an alleyway and jumps wall to wall to get to the rooftop. He stops to see the glider land on the lawn of a suburb street before he jumped off the rooftop and landed on the lawn to check the glider. It too was empty and remote controlled. "Damn it." He whispered before getting out his communicator while removing his hood. "P.I.X.A.L., bad news. The glider I was chasing was also empty."

"That must mean the last one had Cyrus and all the men on it." P.I.X.A.L. said through the communicator. "Cirrus, are you still in pursuit?"

"Still in my sight." Cirrus replied through the communicator.


In downtown, the last glider keeps moving along the air as Cirrus pursues it in her mech. "It's heading for the dock."

"What would they want with him?" P.I.X.A.L. spoke through the console.

"We'll find out once I grab him."

"Okay, we're gonna head to the docks once P.I.X.A.L. picks me up." Blake said through the console.

"See if we can cut him off."

Cirrus sees the glider turn right before doing so as well before it comes across the docks and turns left. "Oh no." She said to herself. "Don't do it." The glider soon soared out of control and falls into the ocean. "Guys, the glider spun out of control and is in the ocean."

The glider slowly started to sink as P.I.X.A.L.'s mech soon showed up with Blake hanging by the left arm before he immediately dove in the ocean. "Blake!" The two samurai girls yell, but just watch as he swam for the glider.

Pretty soon, he surfaces, taking in a deep breath before turning to them. "It's empty as well." He said.

"Then, where could they have gone?" P.I.X.A.L. asked as Blake got out.

"Who knows where? Pix, inform the police, then try to give word out to the others. Tell them to meet me at the station."

"Understood."

Blake sighed as he looked at the still sinking glider. "Where are you, dad?" Cirrus soon placed a hand on his shoulder.


Underwater, the men swim down to the bottom of the ocean as the man in the red kimono had Cyrus in front of him before they come across a submersible, and head inside it before the submersible started moving forward.


A few hours later, the submersible comes across a giant dome with what appeared to be a city inside it, and go underneath it.


In the bottom of the underwater city, some men open a hatch where the men in kimonos first get Cyrus inside before getting in themselves.


In what appeared to be a maintenance room, some maintenance men bring Cyrus into a wheelchair, wrap a towel around him for warmth as the men in kimonos come out, came up to him, and wheel him out of the room, despite still dripping wet.


In what appeared to be the main security room of the underwater city, a middle aged man with strawberry blonde hair, wearing a gold kimono, sees the men bringing in the still unconscious Cyrus. "Dr. Cyrus Borg in the flesh." The man in the red kimono said as he wheeled Cyrus to him.

"Excellent." The man in the gold kimono replied, turning to them. "Time to say hello to an old friend."

Cyrus immediately opened his eyes and looked around, seeing many men and women in kimonos, typing on keyboards, or looking at monitors that were showing views of the city. "What is going on?" He asked. "Where are my glasses and why are my clothes wet?"

"Oh, where are my manners, Mr. Borg?" The man in the gold kimono gets out some glasses and puts them on Cyrus, who was immediately shocked at his presence.

"Who are you? What am I doing here?!"

"Let's just say I'm an old face from the past, Mr. Borg. Welcome to Dripwoof Dome, city of the future." He then noticed the bruise. "Now, who did that?"

"He wouldn't shut up, Mr. Welt." The man in the black kimono said.

"I told you not to damage the merchandise, limp." He turns to the man in the red kimono who was behind Cyrus. "Throw him in the detention centre with the others. Get him a new suit too."

"Others?" The man starts to wheel Cyrus away while limping. "Look, is this about money? My inventions? For the love of the First Spinjitzu Master's ponytail, tell me why you've kidnapped me?"

"All will be revealed in time." He soon turned to a nearby young man with strawberry blonde hair.

"Cross Borg's name off the list."

"Yes, sir." The young man replied before getting out a sheet of paper and crosses Cyrus' name off of it, among others, including Gayle Gossip and Mayor Rubi Seuss Seosin that were crossed off. The ones that weren't crossed off included many more people as well as Dr. Robert Hall and Lloyd Garmadon. "This line up of famous people will help out the new world. Who do we grab next, Neue?"

"The Green Ninja."
