Third Person POV

 The Monastery was fairly quiet today, though for good reason. 

Each of its residents were off doing their own things, with Pixal being the only one even there. 

As she tends to her mech inside its cave- inside the Monastery's mountain, she reminds herself where the others all went;

'Master Wu and Misako; exploring a new island, which they may be back from in a week.
Kai, Cole, Jay, Zane and Nya; on a mission south of the city, and will return relatively soon.
Lloyd; he had already left at dawn attending to a distress call from a canyon east of the city'

Hopefully her friends make it back safely... not to mention two of her allies have a special day today... Kai and Lloyd's anniversary.

Although technically she shouldn't have to be concerned about that.

Most of the time she can keep herself occupied with working on new vehicles like the Hydro-Bounty, but more often than not she finds herself worrying about the others. Not to mention the fact that it doesn't take long for her to fix things anyways, making it hard to occupy herself normally.

Speaking of which...

A wrench falls to the ground beside the Samurai X, and Pixal shortly follows after gathering the remaining tools from the passenger's seat.

She drops the toolbox near the mech, and it lands with a clang, a few of its contents spilling out. The droid exits the seat, testing the glass's hinges before jumping off as well.

A few days ago the mech's entire screen was severely damaged, during a group mission at a collapsing skyscraper.

Luckily- shockingly- there were no casualties that day, but a lot of major injuries.

As Pixal put the tools in their places, she was reminded of all the things her mech has been through....

A loud and deliberate dinging brought the bot to attention.

It was coming from the surveillance computer upstairs... the sound is only reserved for a distress call.

Without a second thought, she races up the many steps, running through the possibilities.

It could be one of her friends, it could be a missing person case, it could be urgent, even something that may destroy the team if they do not act now... maybe all three.

Reaching the top, Pixal quickly got to the computer.

There was a large text box on screen, reading; "Guess who's back~", with a video link attached... along with the exact coordinates of...

"That's where Lloyd is..." She glanced at the video, fearing the worst, but still clicking on the link.

The thumbnail of it made her gasp. "No..." 

It was Lloyd. Bound to a chair, seeming knocked out, and a figure stood behind him.

Nervously, she clicked the play button.

The video showed the green ninja- still asleep. But the figure behind him moved his head up so he was facing the camera. Lloyd was blindfolded with a cloth wrapped around his mouth.

"You see that?" their voice was shockingly familiar... "Isn't this your precious green ninja?"

The person removed the blindfold, chuckling. "It'll be a lot worse for him soon..."
