Teenagers Mafia Affairs

Chapter 12

Wu checks his pocket watch; everyone should be arriving by now.

As if on cue, people started walking in, either individually or in groups. Straightening up, Wu clutches his staff and observe everyone. Wu saw Nya arriving on Lloyd's motorbike...but where was Lloyd?

Speaking of the devil, he comes running in, Kai hot on his heels. Rolling his eyes and shaking his head, Wu calls everyone over to the couches.

"So...as we discussed yesterday, we may be going into war-"

"Hold up, may? Just yesterday you were saying how we were definitely going to war!" Neuro protested.

"We will be waiting to see who makes the first move, but we need to be prepared. I will be splitting us all into groups. One group will be repairing all vehicles we have and building weapons, knives, guns, you name it. Some of you will also be doing some recon on the Sons of Garmadon," Wu had ordered.

"Kai, Karlof, Seliel, Skylor, Cole, Bolobo, Flintlocke, Dogshank, Clancee and Shade, I would like you to be working on building weapons. You guys are gifted builders and we need all hands on deck, especially at a time like this. You will be named, Group Gemini."

"Jay, Harumi, Ash, Griffin, Zane and Pixal, I want you to do some recon at the Sons of Garmadon's base. You guys will be Group Beta. Morro, Jacob, Paleman, Tox, Gravis, Neuro and Paleman, we are gonna be rebuilding Destiny's Bounty. We need it now more than ever! You will be Group Omega."

"Lloyd, Nya and Ronin, can you three be on driver duty? In case we run out of supplies, you can drive out to the auto body shop and pick up extra supplies." The trio nodded.

"Are we clear on what we're doing?" Wu says as Everyone nodded in agreement, before splitting ways.

"I...may have some extra supplies back at my store at Stiix..." Ronin's voice trails off.

"Then head there first. Be safe," Wu had spoken as they all run out to their bikes and cars and zoom off. Wu then turn his attention to Group Omega. They grab their supplies and go out to the back, where a large cloth covers what used to be the Destiny's Bounty. Morro, Gravis and Paleman stepped forward and ripped the cover off, revealing the magnificent flying ship.

Yes. Wu said 'flying'.

"We have our work cut out for us." Morro says and they don't hesitate to start working immediately.

The other group was driving through the empty highway, on the way to Ronin's home...Stiix. He was at front while Nya and Lloyd were following close behind, and they were communicating through their earpieces.

"So, where are we gonna stash the supplies once we grab em'?" Nya had asked.

"Chill, sweetheart, I have an extra compartment able to hold more than it let's on," Ronin respond, speeding up. Nya and Lloyd take the memo and they were exceeding the speed limit. But it's fine. No-one's here.

After a while Robin, Nya and Lloyd had finally arrived at Stiix.

"Careful, guys, the ground seems unstable," Lloyd warns.

"Yeah, no shit, Sherlock! It's built on water, what do you expect?" Ronin had scoffed at Lloyd's idiotic response.

"Hey, don't take it out on Lloyd!" Nya snaps. Ronin had forgot that she could hear them.

"Sure, whatever, look, here's where my shop is at," Ronin says as he sends them the location.

"We'll continue this by foot," Ronin says, jumping off his bike. The three of them walk through the paths and twists and turns until they finally arrive at Ronin's Shaft.

Smiling, Ronin push open the door, and they were greeted with the scent of cigarette smoke, gasoline and beeswax from the floor.

"Just...grab as much as you can carry. Make sure it's in good condition," Ronin had said to Lloyd and Nya.

They all rummage through the store, grabbing bits of metal and other items that could prove useful. Ronin then hear voices coming from outside.

"Crap!" Robin thought to himself.

"We need to hide!" Ronin hiss at the teens, who seemed confused.

"What...why-"

"I'm supposed to be out. Nobody knows I'm here...and I get a daily visit from some people I owe...if they catch me, they'll take everything. If they see you here," Ronin gesture towards Nya,

"They'll take you and do...things."

Nya didn't hesitate to grab a knife and jumped over the counter, hiding behind it. Lloyd and Ronin joined her, He had a dagger in his hand, Lloyd had a...ladle it had looked like.

Ronin elbowed Lloyd sharply.

"Ow! What?!" Lloyd hissed.

"Dude, a ladle?" Ronin grabs a knife and shoves it in his hands. He grins and ditches the kitchen utensil.

They then hear the door open and footsteps grow louder.

With Group Beta...

They'd decided to split into groups of two, to cover more ground, but have someone with them, just in case.

Zane and Pixal went together, obviously covering the left. Ash and Griffin went off together, taking the right.

Now Harumi and Jay were jumping on rooftops, since they were covering the top.

"I don't get why it's called 'Sons of Garmadon' though," Harumi wonders out loud.

"It's because they're obsessed with Lloyd's dad, and have dedicated their lives to him," Jay had said as he jumps to the next roof. Harumi catches up with him.

"Sorry," she mumbled. Jay shakes his head.

"Don't worry about it." Jay then look overs and sees several motorbikes lined up.

"They're a biker gang?"

"Yeah, you didn't know?"

"I did, I just...we could get some of our team to blend in. Nya, Seliel, Morro! They're our best motorbike riders! We can disguise them and send them in-"

"And risk their lives? No thanks! Plus, these guys are our worst enemies, and we don't know shit about them." she responded, peering through the crowd, before pointing at a small shop.

"That's Mystake's tea shop. If we can get by unnoticed, we can place a bug nearby and pick up on what they're saying!"

Jay scratches his chin. "T-That could work, but we need pictures. Get your phone out."

Jay pulls out his own phone and swipes to the camera app.

They zoom in and get close ups, as well as face identities, clear enough for Zane and Pixal to scan them and identify on who they are.

Smiling, Jay slips his phone into his pocket, and waits for Harumi, who's still taking more pictures, before she too, puts her phone away.

"Let's go round the other side," she says, and Jay follows her, jumping down roofs and on to the concrete ground. They make their way around, comparing photos.

"Okay, but that is a perfect shot!"

"Is not!"

"Is too!"

They both laugh and gets ready to ascend the roofs, again.

At least Jay had Harumi with him. His heart skipped a beat and they both started climbing.
