Teenagers Mafia Affairs

Chapter 10

It was around 6:00, and everyone had returned. Kai, who had been moody since he couldn't leave, had also brightened up a bit, as the newcomers came into the garage along with the others. Libber gestured them all to come around to the seating area. "Ok, now will you tell us what's going on?" asked Kai impatiently.

Wu nodded, "We...we will be going into war with the Sons of Garmadon. I have asked you to recruit our allies, friends, people we can trust." Wu explained. Kai widened his eyes; war? Everybody else looked equally confused and worried as him.

"Okay, but why?" Seliel asked. Wu stepped aside, to let a smaller, elderly woman through, and Kai instantly recognise her. "Mystake?" Kai asks gently. She looked up at me and her face brightened, "Kai! My my, you have changed!" Kai smiles.

Mystake used fo take care of Kai and Nya after their father passed away and after their mother.

"Before, we get started, I'd like to just point out who's who, if that's okay," Wu said. Mystake gestured for him to continue. Wu cleared his throat. "Everyone, I'd like you to meet Ash, Bolobo, Gravis, Griffin, Jacob, Karlof, Neuro, Paleman Shade, Tox, Flintlocke, Dogshank, Dubloon and Clancee,"

"To all the newcomers, I'd like to introduce you to Kai, Jay, Cole, Zane, Lloyd, Nya, Skylor, Pixal, Seliel, Harumi and Morro," everyone murmured a quick 'hello' to each other before turning back to Wu, Libber and Mystake.

"But why are we going to war?" Jay spoke up. "Tell them what you told me, Mystake," Wu said.

"My teashop is located just behind the Sons of Garmadon's base. And I overheard them badmouthing your team. Saying how they wanted you out for good. They're planning on bombing and invading you!"

Everyone gasped, "B-but we haven't done anything to them!" Nya protested, "We've kept to ourselves, we haven't interfered with them!" "They're probably mad that they aren't getting the recognition they desire," Wu responded, "Believe me, I'm just as angry," "Then we need plan to crush little Sons!" Karlof roared.

Everyone nodded in agreement. "We are going to take a step-by-step approach to this-" "Wu, the Sons of Garmadon aren't the sort of people you can go to to talk things out with tea and cake," Flintlocke spat, "They go with violence. Talking is the last thing they're gonna wanna do,"

"Flintlocke's right, uncle," Lloyd said, "We need to lay low for the moment, so let our contacts know that we're off the market...just until we sort this out,"

"We're gonna need a lot of manpower, Wu," Harumi agreed, "If we are going into war, we'll need to plan battle tactics,"

"We all have different skills," Kai said. He scans the room full of people and group them with their best skill,

"We can use that to our advantage." Zane places an arm around Pixal's waist, "It's getting late, we'll regroup, sleep it off and then talk about strategy tomorrow, with fresh minds,"

"Zane's right," Libber says, "Everyone report here at 9 sharp, dismissed!"

And with that, they left.

Lloyd looked around, before locating Nya through the crowd of people. She was conversing with Dogshank and Tox. He waited, until a voice scared him from behind,

"You not leaving yet, fuzzy hair?" Lloyd turns to see Morro slipping on his helmet.

"Uhh, I gotta date..."

"Cool! Who's the girl?" Morro asked, intrigued. Lloyd nodded towards Nya, who was waving at Tox and Dogshank, who were leaving for the evening,
