Peacebreaker returned back to the temple with Harumi in her arms with a grimace on her muzzle. She leaned the unconscious girl's head against one of the small, flat crystals and herself sat next to her, leaning against the obsidian wall.

- Jesus, girl. What are you doing. - she said to her, looking at her sleeping face with pity. - To fall so hard for some boy.

Harumi in response only groaned in her sleep and turned to the other side with a slight smile on her face.

- Watch this. A great, brave, menacing leader, sleeping soundly, while chaos continues outside. She really is crazy. - muttered Peacebreaker, shaking her head.

She heard heavy footsteps and growling under breath. Corruption furrowed her brow, taking on a blank expression, and stood up from the ground. She stood at attention and put her hands behind her back.

The Crystal King slowly emerged from the dark, murky corridor. He walked proudly with his head raised and approached one of the generals. He stood in front of Peacebreaker and looked at the sleeping Harumi almost with contempt in his eyes. This somewhat suprised the corruption, but of course she didn't let it show.

- What's wrong with her?

- Nothing. Just... too much excitement for one day. She almost went mad with rage, when she faced the green ninja. - she replied, glancing at the girl.

The king sighed exasperatedly and rolled his eyes. - I am building a serious army here. I have selected decent generals here. She is in the lead. So why, the hell, does she bother with this... Son of Garmadon.

Peacebreaker shrugged her shoulders in response.

- I haven't idea, Your Majesty. But, you know...if you're not happy with her...your highness. I'm happy to... I can take her place... as leader of the Council. - she offer, smiling sneakily.

The king giggled with amusement and looked at Peacebreaker, who raised her eyebrows.

- Thank you for the offer, Peacebreaker. But no, none of that. I still don't trust you, not after what you've done. And it will take you a long time to atone for it. Be glad that, you're still a general at all, and not a mere soldier, who can always be exchanged for the next one.

Peacebreaker furrowed her brow and looked at the floor, clenching her jaw.

The king came over and patted her on the head like a little hatchling. Corruption immediately hissed at him and looked daggers at him, growling. Was he trying to provoke her, or what!?

The king looked slightly suprised, but then immediately giggled.

- Oh, yes. Still feisty. Let's keep it up, we could use that anger, on the battlefield. - He sneered at her and started walking through another corridor.

Although he left, Peacebreaker could still hear him laughing at her behavior, making her feel even more anger and embarrassment. She looked at Harumi and growled at her. She kicked her back and started walking down the dark corridors to Pythor and Aspheera.

= Meanwhile, at Samurai X base=

Saber's group returned to Samurai X's base, where he faced an angry, shocked and exasperated team.

- Listen! I know, this sudden withdrawal from the battle doesn't suit us, but we had to do it! - he argued, silencing din Saber.

- But what for!? We were coping, even perfectly! We almost had it!- asked Kai.

- Aspheera was almost defeated.- said Wu, as usual obsessed with Aspheera.

- We don't care!!

- Let's get back on subject. What did you mean by that, Saber. - said Misako in a calm tone, but she looked with furrowed brows at Wu.

Wu shuddered at her gaze and looked down.

- I mean this...you guys probably won't believe me, when I tell you this. - se said with a slight giggle, looking down at his paws.

- What is it? - Macy asked.

- Someone... on the battlefield told me to back off and... look for it.

- Who told you what?- asked a confused Jay, sharing a look with Nya.

- Well... a certain person, told me to go back and search all the books on... the Ancient Power.

- Ancient Power?- asked Wu, scratching his chin.

He looked at Misako, who looked at the lion confused.

- I once read about such a power. If I remember correctly, books on the subject can be found in the big Ninjago Library.

- Where was the Airjitzu scroll? - Cole asked, and Misako nodded.

- And why did this "person" tell you to do it? - asked Clay suspiciously.

- Because it will help us in the fight and... help us free her.

- Her?- asked Lloyd.

- Well... this person, is.... - began Saber, looking at Aaron with fear. Everyone looked at him expectantly.

- Well say it, boomer! - exclaimed Kai.

- (Y/N). This person is (Y/N).

Then silence fell in the room as well as the entire base. Everyone, even PIXAL, who was busy doing something with her Samurai X helmet looked at Saber with shock and a dropped jaw.

All they could hear was the sound of flying flies and crickets, which weren't even there. Jay looked straight into the camera and tilted his head confused.

 Where did the sound come from?? - said to no one in particular.

- What do you mean, that (Y/N) told you to retreat?? - asked Lance.

- Normally. (Y/N), I saw her during the battle. And no it's not Peacebreaker, Lloyd. (Y/N) was on the battlefield and she was looking at us, literally with embarrassment! When she saw, that I could see her, she told me that we should retreat and look for something about the Ancient Power. She still said that we should look for some strong ally. The matter is more serious than we think.

- How serious?- asked Jestro.

- Very serious. She still said, that the mountain that grew out of the ground is marching slowly to Ninjago City! She serves as a weapon against humans!

- WHAT!?!

- Yes. That's why we must start the search, before it's too late.

- Therefore, let's not waste time. Mom, could you and Saber go on this search for books about this power? - Lloyd said.

- Of course. Just I have to get to the library.

- Great. PIXAL, you can still keep an eye on the changes in the movement of this mountain?- continued Saber.

- Yes. All I need to do is to establish the right code and we will be able to see changes even in computers on Bounty.

- Excellent. The rest... we need to look for that ally which mentioned (Y/N). But who?

- After all, it's obvious. Aya. - replied, shrugging his shoulders Lance.

- Cool, genius. But where are we going to look for her? - Clay asked.

- He is right. Aya, she could be literally anywhere. - endorsed Axl.

- Jeez...am I the only one here who is smart? Aya is where, we needed her most.

Everyone just looked at him with a raised eyebrow. Lance groaned and rolled his eyes. 

- Where she brought us, when we needed help.... In the mountains idiots... in the mountains!

- Ooooooooooch. - everyone said in realization.

- Indeed. Lance, you are genius! - said Aaron joyfully.

- This we knew for a long time. - He shrugged his shoulders.

- Well...who will fly to Knighton then?- questioned them Saber.

- I will gladly do it! - said Aaron, immediately volunteering.

- I can do it. - said Kai, shrugging his shoulders with a smile.

- So it is decided. Kai and Aaron will fly to Knighton along with Macy and Jestro. Misako and I will go to that library with Wu. The rest... will go to warn the city and prepare them for the worst. And from me, contact the elemental masters. They'd better be prepared to help. - Saber said.

- I will contact the Elemental Masters and inform them to be on standby. - said Zane, approaching the computer.

- Until I was reminded of our last meeting. - laughed Cole.

- Yes. Do you remember, what happened then? - giggled Nya.

- Yes, we lost with you. - said Kai with regret.

- Jesus, what a shame it was. - reddened Lloyd, scratching the back of his neck.

All the heroes laughed out loud, recalling that good time. Moments later, they left the base and set off. Whether it was to the city or to Knighton. Now, just prepare for the worst. Let's just hope Aya, is there to help us.
