The Two Of Them Ran Through The Hallways, Searching For The Vehicle Bay

Keres Looked At The Screen On The Detonator

4:35

At This Point, Kai's Demon Form Has Faded Away, Making Him Go A Lot Faster Than When It Was Activated

"How Much Time Do We Have Left?" Asked Kai

"4:25, Don't Worry, We Got Time" Keres Answered

"Guess What? Times Flies Faster Than You Would've Thought" Said Kai

Keres Sighed

They Reached A Large Door That Lead To The Vehicle Bay

Kai Was About To Open The Door When Keres Grabbed Kai's Wrist

"Whats The Holdup?" Kai Demanded

"Maybe We Should Go A Different Way" Suggested Keres

"What? Why? We're Right Here"

"We Always Go Through There, They Could Be Waiting On The Other Side To Attack Us" Keres Pointed Out

"We Don't Have Time For Rearrangements Keres!"

"Yes. We Do. Now Come On, I Know A Different Way" Keres Started Ahead

Kai Looked At The Handle And Groaned In Frustration

"Fine." He Let Go Off The Handle And Followed Keres

What They Didn't Know, Was That A Squadron Was Waiting On The Other Side Of The Vehicle Bay Doors

"You Think They're Coming?" Asked A Droid

"Yes Of Course, Now Be Patient" Hissed The Lead Droid

Keres Ran Through The Hallways With Kai Following Behind, Till They Reached Another Door

"Where Does This Lead To?" Asked Kai, Eyeing The Door

"To The Deployment Room, Its Like The Vehicle Bay Except It Solely Deploys Droids For Attack" Answered Keres

"So Wouldn't There Be A Bunch Of Droids In There?"

"Not Likely, They Only Come Here When Garmadon Tells Them To Come Here"

"So Its Still Likely?"

"Look, Do You Want To Get Out Of Here Or Not?!" Snapped Keres

"Yes Yes Of Course, Just Open The Dang Door Already!"

Keres Huffed And Opened The Door, Revealing A Darkened Room

Keres Glanced Back At The Countdown

3:38

Keres Growled Lowly And Went Through The Doorway

Kai Followed In And The Door Automatically Closed

He Lit A Fireball, Illuminating The Room,  Moving It Around

"I Got A Bad Feeling About This. . ." Kai Stated

"Yeah, Which Is Why We Should Hurry, Come Over Here, I Can't See Anything" Keres Said

Kai Walked Towards Keres's Voice, The Fireball Lighting The Area

Keres Was Working With Some Sort Of Breaker

"What'cha Doing?"

"Im Trying To Open The Trapdoor That Deploys The Droids, But These Controls Are Complicated" He Answered

"Oh Ok. . ." Kai Said, Not Understanding What Keres Was Saying

Keres Kept Working On Figuring Out The Controls As Kai Looked Around, The Fireball Flickering In The Dark

There Was Just Pure Darkness. . .

Kai Shuddered

The Abyss Of Black Frightened Him Partially, But Its Just Darkness

What Could It Do To Him?

Kai Glanced At The Counter Keres Had  Laying Next To Him

He Craned His Neck To See The Dark Numbers

2:15

"Keres. . . Do You Mind Picking The Pace Up  A Bit" Kai Asked, Trying To Not Sound Impatient

"Sorry, Hold On, I Think I Got This" Answered Keres, Casually

Kai Groaned

"I Knew We Should've Taken The Bay Exit"

"We Can't Go Back Now Kai, We Won't Have Time To Get There Before The Place Blows" Sighed Keres

A Sound Was Then Heard From The Other Side Of The Door

A Voice. . .

"What Do You Mean They Escaped?! Ugh! Don't Just Stand There Talking To Me, FIND THEM NOW!" The Voice Roared Before Stomping Off

Kai Looked At Keres Who Was Focused On The Controls

"Don't Worry About It, They Don't Know We're Here"

"Bet'cha You Just Jinxed Us"

"Shut Up" Keres Said, Rolling His Eyes Playfully With A Smile

"Just You Wait"

Keres Looked Back At The Controls And He Ripped A Wire Out

"That Should Do I-" He Froze

"Whats Wrong?"

"N-Nothing"

"Keres. . ."

Keres Looked At The Box And Stepped Back

Kai Looked At It As Well

There Was A Little Monitor On It That Showed Garmadon's Symbol In Red

"Obstruction Identified, Commencing Security Protocol" A Robotic Voice Said

Kai And Keres Looked At Each And Gulped

The Room Then Flashed Bright Red With A Wailing Alarm Sounding

They Covered Their Ears

"WHAT DID YOU DO?!??" Kai Cried Over The Noise

"I-I MUST'VE RIPPED OUT THE WRONG WIRE, TRIGGERING THE SYSTEM!!"He Yelled Back

"HOW MUCH TIME DO WE HAVE LEFT?!?!?"

"A MINUTE AND 35 SECONDS!!!" Answered Keres

A Sudden Bang On The Door Was Added To The Mix Of Sounds

"WE KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE PESTS!!!" Roared A Nindroid General

Kai Sighed

"Don't You Even Say It Kai!" Growled Keres

"I Told You So!"
