The villains returned to the base, still enjoying the successful action. They headed to the Vengestone warehouse and brandished golden weapons. Harumi smiled with satisfaction.

- It looks like everything went well.- she concluded.

- Yes. The monastery burned down and the ninja with it too.- Aspheera laughed.

- There is nothing left.- added Vangelis.

- And that's all thanks to, (Y/N).- said Pythor.

Harumi looked at (Y/N) with astonishment. She really didn't think, she could handle her task and still be on the good side, but she was wrong nonetheless. The girl smiled and put her hands on her hips.

- Well, well, well. I honestly didn't think you could do it, (Y/N). But as you can see, we all learn something.

- I'm curious how you feel about this new experience.- Aspheera asked, tilting her head.

They all looked at the yellow ninja curiously. (Y/N) looked at them with blank eyes and smiled, almost creepily.

- I feel.... so alive. It's an interesting feeling, to change your routine. So.... Crazy, so....Evil.

- Great. The Crystal King will be thrilled to have you join our group.

- Yes. If you make the effort, you can curry his favor.- hissed Pythor with a grin.

- Even better.... He can make you someone, (Y/N). Even.... His best warrior or commander.- wondered Vangelis.

- Your assertions are correct.- replied Harumi.

- I'm looking forward to it.- said (Y/N) with a sarcastic smile.

- Okay, we have the weapons. What now?- asked Aspheera.

- Now. The second phase of our plan. Follow me. He finally wants to meet you.- ordered Harumi.

The white-haired girl started leading the council to a special room. It was a huge room. The walls flashed a purple color, and on the ceiling hung, huge ores of purple crystals. In the middle of the room was a statue with holders, most likely for golden weapons.

The council looked around the hall indifferently, after all, a hall is a hall. There is nothing that special about it. Except maybe those crystals on the ceiling.

- I wonder, what will happen if those crystals fall.- said Pythor.

- Simple. They will fall to the ground, shattering. And those who are lucky enough to be there.... Well, let's just say they'll end badly.- said Vangelis.

- Yes. They will die.- said and laughed wickedly at Aspheera.

(Y/N) shook her head at them in exasperation and groaned. They really can't get their priorities straight.

- Enough talking! Come here.- Harumi ordered.

They all walked up to the statue and stood around it.

- You can see those holders. They are for the golden weapons. Put them on them and step back.- Harumi instructed.

Pythor, Vangelis, Mr. F and (Y/N) placed the weapons on the holders and stepped back. The weapons and the statue began to glow with a purple light and disappeared after a moment.

Everyone looked at each other confused, hoping for a better result. Suddenly, the crystal statue began to flash intensely and shake. The Council members gasped in amazement, while Harumi began to laugh. After a moment, the diamond cracked and a dark purple mist came out from within it. 

The mist began to form into something that resembled a person with.... dragon's mouth, horns, and two hands. The person's eyes were not glowing, indicating that the person's eyes were closed.

The council members looked at each other in silence, asking each other what was going on. However, they merely shrugged their shoulders, having no idea what was going on.

Suddenly, the figure opened its eyes, which were a dark pink color, and roared loudly, knocking everyone on their butts or knees.

- Bow before the Crystal King or die. - person said in a low, deep voice.

They all bowed fearfully to the ruler, who stood proudly. The king's gaze fell on the yellow ninja and he smiled impressed.

- Greetings, Princess (Y/N). I am honored that you have joined my council.

- The pleasure is all mine.... Your Highness.- she replied almost immediately, in a hollow voice.

The Crystal King laughed softly.

- I look forward to, our continued cooperation.

- Your Highness. We have golden weapons.- informed Harumi.

- Great, my student. I welcome you, my council. I am truly pleased that you would like to join me. I can't wait until together we can take over Ninjago and bring you the peace I seek.

- And what do we get in exchange?- asked Aspheera.

- Power. Power beyond your imagination.- said the King.

- When will we get it?- asked Vangelis.

- How about.... Now!!!- he called out.

A dark purple fog started coming out of the monument. The fog began to creep towards the villains, who gasped with fear. The fog climbed up their legs and engulfed the council members. After a moment, there was a flash in the fog and it dissipated revealing a whole new look to them.

They all shook their heads in bewilderment before looking at each other in awe. They were all wearing dark purple crystal armor. Even the golden weapons had been changed. The weapons were now shrouded in crystal.

Everyone's gaze fell on (Y/N), who was still engulfed in mist. The yellow and purple colors sparkled in the fog as if they were fighting against each other. Suddenly, everyone gasped with shock.

From back (Y/N), a jagged pair of, glaring, black and red wings began to grow. From the tailbone, a spiky tail began to form. The face began to change into the mouth of a dragon. Instead of nails, it had sharp claws. Three sharp horns began to grow from its forehead. And most importantly. Her eyes glowed yellow color.

The fog finally settled down and absorbed into the girl's body, showing blood red armor. There were small spikes on her shoulders as well. 

(Y/N) became a humanoid dragon. Which had black scales.

Everyone gasped in surprise and slight fear, as a menacing growl came from her throat.

- Behold, I present to you, the monster Peacebreaker, known as.... The evil, dark side of (Y/N)!!!- cried the Crystal King.

- She will spread the power of vengeance and the power of destruction.- Harumi added with a smile.

- So this is her.... - began Aspheera.

- Her....- added Vangelis.

- She is.... She has succumbed to Corruption.- finished Pythor with disbelief.

Mr. F nodded and crossed his arms, looking at the new (Y/N).

- Peacebreaker. In exchange for your release from prison, your good side, from now on you are under my command and will follow my orders.- The king demanded.

- Whatever you command.... Your Majesty. - she said in a venomous voice.

She opened her blinds and smiled terrifyingly. She stood at attention, spreading her wings. She put her hands behind her back and nodded.
