(Third Person P.O.V)

"You're no Green Ninja. The Green Ninja would never need to lie!" Lloyd screamed at Morro from with the Vengestone cage.

Morro only laughed coldly at Lloyd. "I will take back what is rightfully mine." Morro hissed.

Morro came closer to Lloyd and growled "Every. Little. Thing. That was rightfully mine!"

"You're just some lost brat that (Y/N) felt sorry for and returned her dedication to you the same way Wu returned mine." Morro bitterly spat at Lloyd.

Lloyd looked very serious and growled. "Don't you DARE talk about her as if you know her!"

"I didn't think so." Morro chuckled menacingly. "She's just so... Perfect. Everything I could want in a partner. In both meanings of the word." Morro teased the imprisoned boy.

Lloyd growled gripping the bars of the Vengestone cage in anger. "(Y/N), doesn't belong to you either."

"Oh, but she will. She's meant to be the yin to my yang." Morro continued with a dark smirk on his face. Which only served to make Lloyd anger. "And when my Master finally gets here. She'll make sure it happens."

"You'll do nothing of the sort!" Lloyd promised, glaring darkly down at Morro. Morro growled softly. "Just watch me." Morro declared and placed a stereo on the table facing Lloyd.

"Recognise this?" Morro asked with a coy look on his face. Lloyd looked closely at what Morro was holding. A CD not just any CD... A Treble Maker CD.

"It the latest one. Inspired by her time on Chen's Island I believe. I found it in what was left of Ronin's shop and I've just been waiting for an opportunity to play it to you." Morro sneered at Lloyd as he tossed the case in with Lloyd.

Inside the case was a booklet with Lyrics and a few pictures and quotes about each song from the Artists.

"I'll see you in the morning." Morro said as he walked away leaving Lloyd all alone, trying to fight back his tears. As the Treble Makers CD continued to play.

Lyrics:

Time to make a scapegoat. Time to make them pay,

Just look at what they do, Just look at what they say,

So many pointed fingers pitchforks and torches,

Vigilante justice makes the mob remorseless.

You never have to look in the mirror,

When there's someone new for you to blame,

You never have to change yourself,

When you can cause someone else pain.

Just look at what you do, just look at what you say.

It's time for witch hunt baby!

It's time to rally for the cause!

It's time to prove yourselves!

It's time to win applause!

You might think you're safe from the fire,

But I'll make sure everyone gets their turn,

Cause while you love a good witch hunt, baby,

I love to watch the bad guy burn.

You love to play the broken-hearted,

You love to play the sheltered child,

Now things are gonna get a little crazy,

Now things are gonna get a little wild.

You've just been waiting for this moment,

Quivering because you smell blood,

Your blood lust was a gentle shower,

That turns into a raging flood.

It's must be so much work to play the righteous,

It's must be so hard to play, good.

We're just so thankful to fight this cuz no one before ever thought we could

Now we're gonna burn a patsy to light up the darkest night!

Your hands might be a little red,

But keep telling them rest assure you're in the right!

We're in the right We're in the right!

We're in the right! We're in the right!

It's time for witch hunt baby!

it's time to rally for the cause!

It's time to prove ourselves!

It's time to win applause!

You might think you're safe from the fire,

But I'll make sure everyone gets their turn,

'Cause while you love a good witch hunt, baby

I love to watch the bad guy burn!

(Third Person P.O.V)

Lloyd covered his ears, he didn't want to listen, he didn't want to hear how angry and hurt (Y/N) was, he didn't want to face the contempt she now had for him and his brothers.

But her voice was like a siren song calling to Lloyd leading him to his doom.

It hurt Lloyd so much to hear (Y/N)'s voice. Lloyd bit him lip refusing to cry. He wouldn't give Morro that satisfaction. He wouldn't. He had to stay strong for the team.

His brothers needed him to stay strong, right now. Yes, it hurt. But they needed him to be brave.

Lloyd tried to focus on anything he could his eyes landing on the CD cover a big mistake.

Just seeing (Y/N)'s face amongst those on the cover made Lloyd feel like tiny knives were stabbing him in the heart. As the next song started to play.

(Third Person P.O.V)

Ronin slowly walked after (Y/N). Silence hung in the air making Ronin even tenser then he was before.

Ronin wasn't sure whether he should kiss her and thank her for saving his cursed soul or If he should be quaking in fear at what she had planned for him.

"So-" Ronin began. (Y/N) turned sharply to stare at him. Ronin gulped with that new darker cloak and her piercing glowing eyes (Y/N) looked more intimidating then she used to be.

"I want your cache." (Y/N) demanded in a tone that was not negotiable. "You want my money?" Ronin questioned in surprise. (Y/N) rolled her eyes at this.

"Cache, not cash." (Y/N) corrected Ronin. "As in weapon cache you have one around here, don't try to lie." (Y/N) warned her eyes glowing brighter, just for a second.

"R-right. F-follow me." Ronin said taking the lead.

Ronin could feel her eyes on the back of his neck as he leads (Y/N) to the back of a nearby shop and escorted her downstairs to the cellar.

Ronin close the door to the cellar and guided the way to a small walk-in vault. "No one can access this. Except for me. So don't get any ideas." Ronin announced placing his hand on the scanner.

Once it verified that it was indeed Ronin trying to open the vault, it unlocked for the pair of them.

"I got food, water, blankets but only one pillow." Ronin affirmed rubbing the back of his head as (Y/N) walked over to the weapons.

"I'd take a guess that you're looking for Deepstone Weaponry?" Ronin said, thinking that was what she was combing the piles of stolen weaponry for.

"Vengestone." (Y/N) corrected Ronin once again.

"Vengestone? Why would you want Vengestone? You have Elemental Powers, don't you? That will just cancel out your powers." Ronin asked perplexed as to what she wanted with that.

"Never rely on your power, it is a crutch. It makes you weak." (Y/N) answered not taking her eyes off the pile.

"Right. Check the pile to your left." Ronin answered gulping slightly. As (Y/N) pulled out a Vengestone sword.

"Look. I know you're mad at the ninja, but maybe you should focus on the ghosts instead." Ronin tried to reason as (Y/N) helped herself to the Vengestone Weaponry.

"I could care less if ghosts invaded this realm." (Y/N) replied snatching up a small crate. "I'll be taking these as well." (Y/N) added as she walked out of the Vault.

"What are you going to do with those?" Ronin asked rather panicked as he followed her out.

"Our business is concluded. Your debt has been repaid. You are free to go." (Y/N) told Ronin, not even turning around to talk to him.

"That it? That all you wanted?" Ronin questioned racing up the stairs behind her.

"If I let you go without some form of payment, would you really believe me when I said that you were free?" (Y/N) asked looking back at him with a sly smile on her face.

Ronin paused for a moment before smiling to himself. "Fair enough." Ronin chuckled as he waved goodbye to her.

"Repaid debt." Ronin said out loud to himself. "That doesn't sound like a bad idea."

Lyrics:

'Cause, now we've got bad blood You know it used to be mad love,

So take a look at what you've done 'Cause, now we got bad blood.

Now we got problems And I don't think we can solve them,

You made a really deep cut And now we got bad blood.

Hey!

Did you have to do this? I was thinking that you could be trusted,

Why did you have to ruin what was shiny? Now it's all rusted.

Did you have to hit me, where I'm weak? I couldn't breathe,

And rub it in so deep, salt in the wound while you're looking right at me.

Oh, it's so sad to think about the good times, you and I.

Cause, now we've got bad blood. You know it used to be mad love,

So take a look at what you've done 'Cause, now we got bad blood.

Hey!

Now we got problems! And I don't think we can solve them,

You made a really deep cut and now we got bad blood.

Hey!

Did you think we'd be fine? I've still got scars on my back, from your knife.

So don't think it's in the past, these kinda wounds they last and they last.

Now did you think it all through? All these things will catch up to you,

And time can heal but this won't, so if you're coming my way, just don't!

Oh, it's so sad to think about the good times, you and I.

Cause, now we've got bad blood. You know it used to be mad love,

So take a look at what you've done 'Cause, now we got bad blood.

Hey!

Now we got problems! And I don't think we can solve them,

You made a really deep cut and now we got bad blood.

Hey!

Band-aids don't fix bullet holes. You say sorry just for show.

If you live like that, you can live with ghosts.

Band-aids don't fix bullet holes. You say sorry just for show.

If you live like that, you can live with ghosts,

If you live like that, your blood runs cold.

'Cause, now we've got bad blood. You know it used to be mad love,

So take a look at what you've done 'Cause, now we got bad blood.

Hey!

Now we got problems! And I don't think we can solve them,

You made a really deep cut and now we got bad blood.

Cause, now we've got bad blood. You know it used to be mad love,

So take a look at what you've done 'Cause, now we got bad blood.

Hey!

Now we got problems! And I don't think we can solve them,

You made a really deep cut and now we got bad blood.

(Third Person P.O.V)

Lloyd wished (Y/N) was here right now holding him close, telling him everything would be ok.

What Lloyd would give, at that moment to be wrapped up in her old grey cloak, as she comforted him just one more time.

He missed having her by his side, he missed how she used to look out for him, how she made him feel safe and protected from everything bad Ninjago could throw at them.

He missed how she would smile but only for him and he was sorry, he was sorry for everything, he wanted to make it right.

He wanted to atone for the pain he caused her. He did he truly did but he never got the opportunity to do so.

Tears threaten to start pouring down Lloyd's face as the next song started to play.

Lyrics:

I don't like your little games. Don't like your tilted stage,

The role you made me play. Of the fool, no, I don't like you.

I. don't. like. Your perfect crime. How you laugh when you lie.

You said the fault was mine. Isn't cool, no, I don't like you.

But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time

Honey, I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time

I've got a list of names and yours is in red, underlined

I check it once, then I check it twice.

Ooh, look what you made me do. Look what you made me do,

Look what you just made me do. Look what you just made me.

The world moves on, another day, another drama, drama

But not for me, not for me, all I think about is karma

And then the world moves on, but one thing's for sure

 You'll all get yours!

But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time

Honey, I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time

I've got a list of names and yours is in red, underlined

I check it once, then I check it twice.

Ooh, look what you made me do. Look what you made me do,

Look what you just made me do. Look what you just made me-

I don't trust nobody and nobody trusts me,

I'll be the actress starring in your bad dreams.

I don't trust nobody and nobody trusts me,

I'll be the actress starring in your bad dreams.

Ooh, look what you made me do. Look what you made me do,

Look what you just made me do. Look what you just made me-

Ooh, look what you made me do. Look what you made me do,

Look what you just made me do. Look what you just made me do.

(Third Person P.O.V)

Lloyd couldn't hold it in any longer, tears poured down his face. Lloyd burst out crying on the floor of the cage. Wailing and sobbing at the top of his lungs.

Not far from the cage Morro sat laughing, enjoying the sounds of the thief that had stolen his life's goal from him.

Bansha returned to Morro side, clearing her throat before giving her report.

I have followed (Y/N) as requested." Bansha reported to Morro. "And?" Morro demanded impatiently.

"She has freed Ronin from her services in exchange for weaponry." Bansha reported. "Let me guess. Deepstone." Morro said confidently. "No, she asked for Vengestone." Basha answered.

"Why Vengestone?" Morro asked raising an eyebrow. "Ronin has solved that already, (Y/N) still has the Ninja in her sights. He believes that she intends to end this." Bansha answered darkly.

Morro smirked to himself. "It's not just the ninja but the other Elemental Masters." Morro informed Bansha.

"She mustn't want anyone else to steal her kills before she gets the chance." Morro chuckled. "Oh, well. Let her have her fun. We have the Queen's arrival to plan."

(Third Person P.O.V)

____After Dawn_____

One wild ride through the Caves of Despair, ending with the defeat of Ghoultar the Ninja's were saved by R.E.X.

R.E.X. unravelled a ladder for the ninja's to climb inside. "Haha! I could kiss Ronin! After I clobber him for getting us into this mess." Cole said leading the way up the ladder.

Once they were all inside they realised no one else was in there with them.

"Autopilot! Of course, he's too scared to show his face." Jay scoffed look around R.E.X as a message from Ronin began to play on screen.

Ronin: Hey, Ninja. If you're getting this message, I'm sure you have some choice words for me.

"Haha! You've got that right!" Cole scoffed raising a fist to the screen but then realised that it was a recording, not live.

Ronin: But I want to tell you, that wasn't me who sent you to this trap. I was under the control of Morro and I wanna make things right by offering use of my airship, R.E.X., as a peace offering.

A map of the Endless Sea is shown on screen.

Ronin: I know it's not what you had in mind, but I've remotely entered the location of the tomb. The real one this time.

"Look at that. The reason Misako never found the tomb in Ninjago was because it's under the ocean." Kai gasped as he read the map.

Ronin: You should also know Morro probably has a head start, Also (Y/N)'s plotting something. Good luck and go make things right.

"Looks like we're headed to the tomb. Time to buckle up." Kai declared as R.E.X took off towards the tomb and the Caves of Despair are destroyed behind them.
