LLOYD'S P.O.V.

I can't believe what I'm seeing. My dad is turning evil again. He's turning back into Lord Garmadon. I feel tears starting to well up in my eyes. I can't believe Zane is doing this. Why? Why would he do this?

"Father?" I ask.

"Lloyd." He says. His skin has turned black and his hair is back to what it was before. "I will return to defeat you, Green Ninja."

"Dad!"

He leaves. I run after him, not caring about Zane. He did this. He's the reason my dad is evil again. I see my dad on the deck.

"Dad-"

"Goodbye, Lloyd." He jumps off the retailing.

"Dad!" I yell, running to where he was just standing. I don't see him anywhere. He's gone.

I go back inside. I see Kai, Jay, and Cole playing video games.

COLE'S P.O.V.

Lloyd comes in looking really depressed. I can tell he's been crying. His eyes are red and his cheeks look wet.

"Hey, kid, what's wrong?" I ask. We pause the game as he walks over to us.

"My dad. He's...gone."

"What do you mean he's gone?" Kai asks.

"Zane turned him evil again. He's Lord Garmadon now, not Sensei Garmadon."

We stare at him in shock. Why would Zane turn him evil? What's gotten into him? We all run to our room and swing the door open. We see Zane sleeping in his bed.

"Zane?" I say. He doesn't answer. "Zane!" I say again. This time he opens his swollen eyes. He looks at us.

"What is it?" He asks.

"You know exactly what we're here for." Kai says.

Zane looks at us, confused. "Brothers, I do not know-"

"You are not our brother!" Jay yells. Zane looks hurt. This time by Jay's words and not by his wounds.

"Why, Zane?" Lloyd asks. Zane turns his attention to him."Why did you turn my dad evil again?"

"Lloyd, I do not know what you are talking about." Zane says.

"Yes, you do." Lloyd says, he's starting to cry again. "And what did you say to Liz earlier? When I came in, she was leaving here. She was crying, Zane."

"Liz was here? I am sorry, Lloyd, but I do not remember any of this. It is not that I do not believe you, but I just do not remember."

We stare at him. Either he really doesn't remember anything, or he's toying with us. I don't think Zane could do something so cruel like this. Maybe it's just what's happened to him recently. Maybe his system got screwed up or something. We leave him alone. I give him a look of anger, regret, and betrayal when I leave. I don't know what to believe.

ZANE'S P.O.V.

I watch as my brothers leave. I really do not know what they are talking about, but I hope none of it is true. Did I really make her cry? Did I really hurt her? I love her, I would never hurt Liz. They are lying. They have to be. They are just as bad as those dark creatures. They will pay for lying to me.

JAY'S P.O.V.

Wow. I can't believe Zane really did that. It's just so...not like him. He's always so nice and stuff. Why would he?

"Guys, nindroids have been spotted in New Ninjago City." Nya says as we walk out of the room. "Oh, why does she have to be pretty and now be Cole's girlfriend instead of mine?"

"Uh, Jay? I can still hear you." Nya says.

I give a nervous laugh. "Heh. did I say that out loud?"

We take the ultra dragon to New Ninjago City. We see nindroids everywhere, how did they even gat here? I thought Borg turned all of the nindroids into security gaurds. Ugh, we can't worry about that now. We have to protect the people of Ninjago!

"You can't defeat my robot army!"

We turn to see Garmadon. Lord Garmadon. I look at Lloyd. He's not showing any emotion, but I can tell he's conflicted about what to do.

"Hey Lloyd." I say. "You can skip this one if you want. You dont have to face your dad again."

"No, it's fine. He's evil now, and we have to stop him." He says.

We use our powers to fight him, but Garmadon is too strong. Only Lloyd was able to beat him the first ime, but that was when he was being possessed by the Overlord. Lloyd isn't fighting at full strength, I can tell. He's using his powers, but he isn't using all of them. He's holding back. I can tell that he really doesn't want to fight his father.

"Lloyd, you really don't have to do this!" Cole shouts.

"It's okay, really!" Lloyd says.

"No, Lloyd. You're holding back." Kai says. "Take care of the nindroids, we got this."

Lloyd looks a little hurt and offended, but he nods and takes off.

"Gamradon, you've changed! You're not evil!" I yell.

"I know that I once turned good, but Zane has made evil run in my blood once again." He says.

"Yeah, but I'm sure it's all a misunderstanding!" Cole shouts.

"Please, you're not like this anymore!" I yell.

"No, he is like this!"

We all look up to see something in the sky. It has two sets of wings, two large ones that are white and a pair of smaller black ones under them. It has two tails, one white and one black. They're small and slender, and have a ponted tip at the end. It looks like a mix betweeen a human and a dragon. Its eyes are black slits with white around them. Its skin is white and scaly, and it has a sanke-like toungue. It's Liz.

She lands and walks towards Garmadon. "At firsst I had no clue of what had happened to Zane, but now I do." She hisses slightly like a snake. "He wass in that place for too long. A part of hiss ssoul has been tainted with evil, a large part of it. The evil hass taken control of hiss mind. There iss a way to reverse it, but it'ss difficult." She reaches her hand out to Garmadon.

"Don't touch me!" He says, trying to bat her hand away. His arm passes right through her.

A white band of light passes from her chest to her arm and eventually reaches Garmadon's shoulder, where her arm is touching. It reaches him and starts turning him good again. Another band of light passes between them. A few more pass and they all do the same thing. After about the fifth one, Lord Garmadon is completely good again. He's now Sensei Garmadon again.

"Father?" Lloyd says, walking up to us. He finished off the nindroids. That, or they turned good again, too.

"Lloyd." Garmadon says. "I'm so sorry." He's on his knees, catching his breath.

"It wasn't your fault." Lloyd says. They give each other a hug and they both smile.

"So, how do we fix Zane?" Kai asks.

Liz looks down at the ground and frowns. She closes her eyes and sighs. Then she opens her eyes. "Only I can do it...by giving him a piece of my own ssoul."

"Wait, what?" Coles says, clearly shocked. Ha, shocked, lightning. That's the second time I used that joke, and it's still funny.

"Hey guys, guess what? I just made a joke for the second time-"

"Yeah that's great, Jay." Kai says. Nobody wants to her my jokes. "So are you really going to do this? I mean, isn't there an easier way?"

"No." That's all she says.

Lloyd, Cole, Kai, and I fly the ultra dragon back to the bounty. Liz flies with her own wings. Seariously, that form it creepy.

"Oh, iss it?" She asks, coming cloer to me. I forgot she can hear my thoughts. Creepier. "Ssorry." She mumbles, but deosn't change her form.

We arrive at the bounty, but something's off. We go to check on Zane, but don't find him in bed. We check the kitchen, the video game room, the training area under the deck, then the bridge. We gasp as we see Zane holding a knife to Sensei's throat. The tip is already drawing a bit of Sensei's blood.

"Zane!" Kai says.

He looks up at us. His eyes are red, like the other nindroids'. "You cannot stop me." He says. He presses the knife harder against Sensei's throat, drawing more blood.

"Zane, don't do this!" Cole shouts.

"Dont. Do. It." Liz says. Her snake-like tongue whips around, in and out. It's super creepy. She shoots a look at me. Right, mind reading. She has that. She looks back at Zane. "Thisss issn't you, Zane." She says. "You are not evil , you are good. And I will prove it to you."

"No, do not touch me." Zane says. He tosses Sensei to the side and holds the knife towards Liz. We run over to Sensei to help him up.

Liz reaches her arm out to his shoulder. He tries to shrink back, but for some reason he can't. A strand of white light comes out of Liz's chest, her soul I guess, and moves around her arm, reaching Zane. It looks like a white stream, or a small river of white light. As the light goes into Zane's body, his eyes turn back to their original color. He lets the knife drop to the floor. He soon follows after. Liz takes her hand off of his shoulder and drops to her knees.

"Is everyone okay?" Garmadon asks.

"Brother? You are good again." Sensei says.

"Yes, and it was thanks to her." Garmadon says, pointing at Liz. "Are you alright?" He asks Sensei Wu.

"I'm fine, but what about Liz and Zane?" Sensei asks.

"Yeah." Liz says. "I'm fine. Losing a part of your soul twice in one day can sometimes take a lot out of you." She breathing hard, but stands up shakily. Cole and Kai go to help support her up, one of them under each of her arms. She changes back to her human form. Meaning no more wings or tail or scaly skin and snake tongue. Finally.

"Is Zane going to be okay?" I ask. She nods, but doesn't say anything.

The two senseis help me carry Zane to his bed, Kai and Cole help Liz to Nya's room, where she can rest. We lay Zane back down on his bed. I have to say, he does look a lot better already. He turned evil by being in that dark place, turned Garmadon evil, and almost killed Sensei Wu. I think I have had enough evil in one day to last the rest of my life, thank you.
