The road rumbled softly as a car drove on the cracked asphalt roads people used to drive their vehicles. A midsize SUV was driving along the route. It was white, and it had a few cracks in it, showing that Jade, although a good driver, had made a few mistakes in the past, one of them being running over a mailbox in the other accidentally hitting another car, there was another incident with the basketball hoop, but she wasn't going to talk about that, and she found it downright embarrassing, but that wasn't one of her most embarrassing moments, but she wouldn't even talk about her most embarrassing moment, because that was part of a secret and not even her closest friends knew about that one, because that was a close garden secret, and she was planning never to tell anyone because it was such an embarrassment to her.

They were driving down the wary roads heading into the unknown, knowing full well that they weren't possibly going to return because of where they were going to team sense side the vehicle all strapped in with seatbelts Garmadon had to have no seatbelt on because he was an only warlord. He didn't fit inside the seatbelt unless it was one of those regular seatbelts, but it was Jade's car, and there are not a lot of standard seatbelts inside the car unless it was one of those regular seatbelts, but it was Jade's car, and there's not a lot of standard seatbelts inside the vehicle.

You could ask why she doesn't have regular seatbelts in her car, but the thing about it is that her car is a very old model. One of those types of models was not all seatbelts we're inside the car, so unfortunately, not everyone was going to be a sign seatbelt, leaving garmadon to have the improvise with seatbelts because he was scared that Jade was going to be one of those crazy drivers that were going to be reckless and cause Mayhem on the road. You could even argue that she had a crazy look in her blue eyes when she assured them all that she wasn't going to be a crazy driver, but Lloyd refused that and chose to believe that Jade was a good driver, because she had told them that she was why when they think her she had been shuffle tell them the entire time, so why not give her a chance to you know prove herself that she was a good driver.

He had full faith that she was going to be a good driver, and he fully trusted her with them in her hands. Although he was going to admit, he did get a little frightened, because just before they left as they were packing everything, and everyone was loading into the van before he even had a chance to get into the van, Jade's father, a spiky haired man, who is taller than Lloyd and add blue eyes Jade had come up to him had a short conversation with him and then warned him about Jades driving. Saying she was crazy and unpredictable and she was probably going to get them all killed before they got to the destination. That mean Lloyd's blood runs cold, and he felt himself get goosebumps all over his body, and he in that moment felt very afraid because he feared for his life, and he feared for everyone else's life, because if Jade's father was coming up to them in and saying Jade was such a horrible driver maybe it was true and maybe they should let someone else drive. Because like sure they weren't from here and they don't exactly know how the driving works or how Jade's car works but he could probably figure it out.

He was smart. He knew that he could probably figure it out and then they could get there without you no killing themselves or Jade killing them in the car. As everyone was finishing packing up and getting everything into the van, and Jade was about to go into the driving seat, he had offered to drive her car, and Jade almost seemed offended by it like she seemed like she was mad that he even asked her to drive her car. He saw that her face kind of went red, and her eyes kind of turned to malice like they were glaring daggers at him. He had felt a little frayed, even though he knew, Jade was a human, not an element to master like himself, and could defend himself in case Jade tried to attack him, but in that moment he felt frozen, and he didn't know if he was able to react quickly in time if she was going to attack them, but luckily she didn't and she merely signed asking why he suddenly wanted to drive and not her like the initial plan was, he wasn't going to lie to her, and he explained what her father had said, making her roll her eyes, and cross her arms almost like she was born and you're at her father now, and not more him.

She explains that her father always likes to mess around and play jokes and lie, she tells them that she is a really good driver. She has been driving for two years now and she hasn't had an accident. In fact, he was just mad that his mother Jade's grandmother was a better driving instructor that he was and that he was salty that Jade only had one driving lesson with him before she stopped driving with him on the account. He was driving her crazy. Lloyd didn't know who he was going to believe considering that Jade's father was older than Jade, and wouldn't really lie. At least he didn't think he would lie but then again, he didn't know Jade's father. Well, he knew Jadeyn well because he had been hanging out with Jade. What seems like months now which was in reality probably just a month or so. In the end he decided to trust Jade and next thing he knew they were all driving, heading towards the facility to save child harumi.

"So do we have an actual plan here?" Garmadons deep gravelly voice was heard from the back seat. Everyone turned their attention to Garmadon, who had spoken up after some hours or minutes of silence but they knew he was the one who had the courage. Or should they say the bluntness to say what everyone was actually thinking out loud. No one wanted to say it, because they had talked about a plan when they were back at Jade's house. When they were around the table discussing what they should do but they all argued about what was the best plan to go with, in the end they decided they'd make it up as they go, or just figure it out on the way to the facility.

The blonde haired, blue eyed girl was going to speak up, and say something but The blonde haired, green eyes boy had spoken first and beat her first before she could speak anything. "Not really; remember we were gonna figure it out as we go along". He turned to look at his father, he tried to show he wasn't nervous. But there was a few tell-tale signs he was very nervous and Everyone knew it. Such as the tapping of his foot on the car seat in front of him.

He wasn't looking at his father when he was speaking, and so much the fact some sweat was going down the side of his face. No one wanted to call Lloyd out on his nervousness, because they knew he was doing that thing where he acted like everything was fine, and everything was going to be okay but they all knew how he was really feeling.

The raven haired girl twirled her hair around her finger. As she played around with her seatbelt as she didn't have much else to do at the moment. She sighed, as she took a sip of her water. Then turned to look at the group, she also had a semi nervous look, but she was better at hiding her emotions than Lloyd.

"Everything will be fine, we Just need to come up with a good plan" she says as she then turned away and looked at the window and saw the landscape outside it was beautiful, and she had honestly missed this when they were in ninjago. But she knew they would have to leave after they saved Little Rumi. But Lilla Knew they weren't leaving forever, they would be gone for a short time and then they'd be back again. That thought made her sad thinking of the possibility of them, after saving Ninjago From Zephyr there being a chance they never See The Ninja, nor any of them ever again, and that made her sad to think about.

It was then a grumble was heard, and the clearing of the throat, and then they turned and saw Garmadon had lifted up his head once again so he could voice his opinion. "This is the plan? How foolish" he says in his usual tone of disapproval.

At this point after hearing that comment no one was surprised about it because it was Garmadon and he always made comments like that. It was always blunt to the point just the way he liked them. That was just how he is. He always just made comments like that and no one knew what else to say so they would always just do you know deal with it but now that they were in a really serious situation, not that like it's ever taking over the city was in a serious situation, but they were in a somewhat of a more bigger Siri situation right now, so they didn't really need him to be talking like this they need an actual plan and with him it wasn't like he was even trying to help. Jade rolled her eyes; as she didn't take her eyes off the road, as she says: "Well, do you have a better plan?" She asked.

This caught The oni Lord Off guard, as he wasn't used to people commenting on words when he spoke, and even more so that it was Jade speaking. Considering she was the silent type, and very shy she wasn't the one to speak out, or say anything. Everyone saw Garmadon had a look of shock on his face, when he saw Jade speak up, and no one dared to comment on it, and then he sighed and spoke: "Well, No but the plan you propose is foolish, and we will certainly get caught" he says. And no one wanted to say anything because as said they didn't want to admit they didn't have a plan, and even if they did it was probably going to fail, so the best plan, at least the movies, we're always the unexpected ones, and Jade knew that.

"Is it foolish? Yes but It's the only plan we have that has a chance of working, even if it really isn't a plan!" Kaitlyn says. As she moved a brown lock of hair away from her face, and then looked up from the book she was reading. It was quite an interesting book. It was about this guy and he went on magical adventures and he slayed vampires. He was a hunk who had a dark secret. She had tried to get Jade to read it, but Jade only got past the first page before she passed out. She did not do well with her stuff so she knew that it was better to just keep this book to herself.

It was then the car's GPS navigator spoke up, startling everyone as they didn't expect anything to be spoken after the long moment of silence I had left in the air after Kaitlyn had spoken. The GPS told them that they had arrived and so everyone looked out the window and what they saw frightened them to the bone. They're in the sand dunes of the mountains with a tall fortress with gates and watchtowers and security guards everywhere, and there was a looming fortress on the hill that awaited them that was very intimidating to them. Everyone collectively gulped.

'Were they really ready for this?'
