"Whos there?!"

"Who are you..?"

The twins stared at the woman who had a blade in hand for self defense. "S.Y.M..." she muttered. Acronix took a bit of time before he recognized her. He went to say something but she pointed a quarterstaff at him that was on her back. "Dont say a word. Leave now. I don't want your gangs nasty fingers to lay a hand on Borg." She threatened.

Krux put his hands up in fear. But Acronix made him put them down. "S.Y.M...its me, Acronix.." he explained and wiped off the stuff from his face. Making his eyes return back to normal color. She stayed silent, realizing now. "Then who...Is this..?", She muttered. "My twin, Krux", Acronix mentioned. Krux quietly waved. "Oh..I'm so sorry..the paint really made you different.." she shyly apologize before putting both weapons away.

"Borg isn't here. My sister put me here as a diversion so they wouldn't find father." She explained. Making Acronix frown and look down. "Do you know where he is?", asked Krux. She nodded,  "I do, and he is safe where he is." She told.  Though she didn't look like she would willingly tell. Acronix felt himself ease at the news, though he still wanted to see him. "Can I see him..?" He asked. She shook her head no. "I promised to not tell his location. Incase someone is watching." She mentioned.

Krux rubbed his brothers shoulder quietly. "I understand" Acronix muttered. Though there was a crash up stairs. "Search the room!" Yelled someone, more perhaps a female. The twins looked at each other quietly and S.Y.M quickly made sure the door was shut. Which she managed. "Someone is here!" Someone yelled. It gave panic to S.Y.M. Acronix looked at the knuckle guards on his fingers. "I can get us out.." he muttered. Which Krux gave a disapproval noise. "No, don't you dare think about that. No matter how long you've used the entire element. You still get yourself hurt! You wasn't made to use what use to be mine. It's how destiny wants us to be."

He argued. Acronix stayed silent, he was right. Too right. He huffed and looked down. "Why not give him a chance..? How else are we ment to escape?", She asked, Pointing upstairs.  Krux stayed silent. "Look, you don't know what a element can do to a person if it's not their original. It can corrupt them due to so much power. I don't want him to experience the same thing." Krux defended his statement.  Her finding it logical. "I see..", she muttered, her head turned to the younger.

Acronix looked to the door, yet he jolted by the sudden bang at the only exit. He backed up into his brother, already having the others arms wrap around him protectively. "They won't get through unless they find the lever. Don't worry-". "But I found it easily and I dislike technology." Krux interupted her. Acronix glared at him. "First of all, you as well had secret entrances!" He barked, making the other chuckle. "True that." He muttered softly.

"Why do you hate technology?" Asked S.Y.M, Krux shrugged a bit. "Just never liked how ninjago is so infested with modern things. So intoxicating. It ruined the old ninjago." He explained with a small huff. "I refuses to try it out, plus it also frightens me badly. Especially hospitals", he admitted. It's why he refused to go to a hospital for his treatments.

And Acronix now understood where he is coming from. He too is afraid of some things that doesn't revolve around people. But admitting them now isn't such a great time. "Oh my..I'm sorry.." She muttered, Krux waved her off. "Its alright. Talking about it doesn't bother me." He reassured. Though with a few small clicks being heard, the door opened. Shining in light and shadows against it, the three now exposed clearly.

"Get them." Demanded the woman have the twins sawn before. Acronix had no choice BUT to hold them both and used his element to speed up and out of there. Coming to a stop on the first floor lobby. S.Y.M nearly fell to her knees by the sudden movements. "Give warning next time- please!" She complained. But being in the lobby, means that they was in the open to the rest, or barely few of the gang around.

"I really should have gotten us further-", Acronix muttered. But his sentence was cut short by a Vengestone net being flight at only him. Catching him in it and pinning him to the ground. "Elemental masters are so annoying. Relying on your petty powers." A woman complained, shifting her head so her ponytail is out of her face. She laughed like a maniac. "But it's so fun catching you" she grinned.

"What did you do to him?!" Krux yelled in anger, he had no actual weapon to use against her. "Simple Vengestone net. Harmless. But it'll keep him down and powerless." She grinned. "What? You upset? You are too cute." She teased. Krux went to help his brother out of the net, but a arrow stopped his way. Barely missing his hand. He stayed quiet and looked to the side where the arrow homed to. This gave him an idea.

He moved back, as if he is going to surrender. "Mind if I use your weapon?" He whispered to the Nindroid. She nodded a bit and released it from its hold. Krux took hold of the weapon and swung it at the woman, knocking her head on the metal. She fell to the ground by the sudden impact. Twisting the pole, he blocked arrows and metal pipes.

He swiftly dodged an arrow, and another. His skills clearly outmatched the gang, and he was graceful about it too. Having a precise hit on each of them, he was able to take out the small group. He huffed and looked back to see S.Y.M helping Acronix out of the net. "As you can see. You don't always need your element to win. So don't rely on it brother." He said sternly. He handed the pole back to S.Y.M and she put it back into its holder.

Krux sighed and walked out of the building. He was angry. But he didn't know why. "Why just him...? Am I not worthy of the power anymore..?" He muttered to himself. "I know I've did wrong. But I've atleast proven myself. Why is it still hard to show everyone I'm not bad." He growled to himself. Though feeling the ground rumble under him, signifies that the creature is nearby once again. "Just great.."

So sorry for the wait! But happy valentines day everyone!
