CHAPTER 6
In Spinjitzu Monastery. PIXAL was in the underground garage of the monastery, with a welding mask over her face and welding some kind of vehicle that was covered by a big blue sheet. On a large computer, there were interactive plans of the mysterious machine.
- PIXAL?
PIXAL jumped slightly at the sudden voice and turned towards the voice that was the computer. On the connection was Cyrus Borg, who was holding some sort of folder in his hand.
- Yes, Cyrus?
- I've had a look at that plans you sent me and I must say it's very impressive! This sketch is exquisite! I've never seen such a machine in my life! - Cyrus complimented her with a broad smile.
PIXAL pulled off her welding mask and smiled slightly at her father. - Thank you. These recent events with the strange weather anomalies and.... Ingrid's kidnapping suggested to me that something was coming, so I decided to add some enhancements to the fight.
Cyrus Borg nodded in understanding, feeling sad at the news about Ingrid. Her foster granddaughter. - Any news from the ninja regarding Ingrid and the other kids?
PIXAL shook her head silently and looked down. Cyrus looked at her with a sympathetic expression on his face. - I'm so sorry, PIXAL. But let's not give up. The children and Ingrid will be found soon...! You just have to believe.
Nindroid nodded and smiled slightly at the man. - Agreed.
Cyrus returned the smile. - So! What do you want to call this little project of yours?
PIXAL looked at the machine under the cover in wonder. - I've come up with a code for this plan. - she announced. - 75309.
- Does this code have any translation? - Cyrus asked with a laugh.
PIXAL sent her creator a slight smirk. - You'll have to figure it out yourself, Cyrus. And so do they. - She said and pointed her finger into empty space.... Specifically to the readers.
Cyrus Borg raised an eyebrow. - Who are they? I don't see anyone with you. Is everything okay with your systems?
PIXAL giggled slightly. - Yes. It's... ninja secret. - She replied and shrugged her shoulders innocently and went back to welding.
Cyrus laughed lightly and shook his head. - Ah, PIXAL, PIXAL.

Polaris broke the lock on the door to Strickler's house and with a creak opened it. He put a black hood over his head and pulled out his obsidian Claymore. Even though it was afternoon... It was completely silent.
- What is it? Where has everyone gone? - He asked himself as he looked around the house and there was not a living soul. Polaris sniffed the air and smelled a very familiar odour. His sense of smell led him into the kitchen and he approached the wooden table.
Polaris placed his black hand on the back of the white chair and clenched it tightly. A savage growl came from his throat and he rattled his tail. - Ninja. Those bloody ninjas.
- Damn, they outdid me.
Polaris licked his lips again and looked around the house in boredom. He flicked his tongue. - Since they're not here, I might as well let the place go up in smoke.
He said and did so. He walked over to the gas fire and turned on all the gas switches. He looked around once more at his surroundings and reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a pack of matches. Anacondrai went to the bathroom, took the toilet paper and threw it on the dining room table.
He struck one match and set fire the paper and waited for the fire to flare up more. Polaris stared unmoved at the fire, before he disappeared in black mist. The fire began to consume the table, then the carpet, then the walls and then spread even further.
After a while, the whole flat exploded as the fire merged the gas. The huge explosion spread a huge fire not only in Strickler's house, but also several other flats.
Polaris appeared on the roof of the building opposite and watched with a dark grin as the entire block began to slowly consume the fire and people ran out of the building like a herd of frightened deer with cries and wild screams of terror.
Polaris leaned against the wall and licked his lips again, sighing relaxedly. That fire, those screams, gave him great satisfaction.
- Just like the good old days. - Polaris sighed. - This one big fire, reminds me of the days when me and that damn traitor used to set villages on fire.... Something beautiful.
In the background, Polaris began to hear the wild howling of fire engine sirens and other police cars and ambulances. The Death Eater giggled grimly and began wagging his tail in twisted joy.
Polaris waved his right wrist and his hand began to glow with dark purple fire. He then released a small flame from his hand, which flashed towards the clouds. The gentle clouds, immediately turned black and stormy and a great flash of lightning and loud thunder pierced the sky.
Two lightning bolts collided with each other and a Dark Mark slowly appeared in the sky. A black crescent moon with a dead tree and four skeletons, who were groaning lifelessly emerged. Their groans could be heard through the wind.
Polaris looked at the sign. - Half the success ready. Now it's time for the actual part. - He muttered and disappeared into the black mist.

At the Spinjitzu Monastery, Cole, Lance, Jestro, Jay and Axl brought Barbara Lake and her son Jim to the temple to be safe. Aaron, (Y/N), Saber and Vania with Lloyd were still at the police station.
Cole isn't yet aware that Vania is in city and knows what happened to Eshter. Harumi, Skylor and Nya, were with PIXAL and helping her program her secret plan and help her build.
- Hey, guys? Where are the girls? - Kai, who had slept off a full night of patrolling the city, entered the kitchen. His hair was in disarray and he wasn't wearing a shirt, just pajama pants.
Kai was unaware that not only were his friends in the kitchen, but and....
- Kai! Get dressed! We have guests! - Jay rebuked the red ninja with indignation.
Kai yawned and rubbed his eyes, before looking frozen at the kitchen island. He froze in stillness when he saw an unfamiliar woman and a young boy. An awkward silence fell.
- Erm.... Good morning? - Kai greeted with hesitation.
- Good morning. - Jim replied awkwardly and turned an embarrassed look away. Kai opened his mouth to say something, but quickly closed it. - Erm... I'm going to go get dressed!! - he squealed and ran off to the room in a flash.
Cole groaned in embarrassment and Zane at the cooker who was brewing tea shook his head. Jay looked apologetically at the two guests. - Sorry for Kai.
- No problem. - Barbara smiled awkwardly.
Axl with Jestro busied himself with the biscuits that were on the table, and Lance had his eyes fixed on his phone and was texting someone.
Then everyone's communicators started beeping. - League of Heroes! We need to appear in the Cryptarium! Quickly! - an scared voice of (Y/N) rang out.
- What's wrong? - asked Zane with concern.
- A robbery, a murder, both! Quick, we have to go! Everyone! - Saber announced and hung up.
All the men gasped in shock and quickly rushed from their chairs. Even Kai ran out of the room, in the process of putting on the top part of his outfit. - Wait for me!
In the end, only Wanda, Misako and Wu, who were in the old master's room meditating, stayed in the monastery. The monastery was left unattended...
The Death Eater had the target as if on a platter.
