I stared at Lloyd who look constipated as he tried to focus on a lightbulb. It was barely lighting up. "Focus, Lloyd. Control the power inside you. When you feel a surge welling up, harness it." Jay tried to teach him as Lloyd said he understood but broke it. I moved out of the way as some glass flung everywhere. " Aargh! Stupid light bulb! You're putting too much pressure on me. Let me have one more try." Lloyd demanded. I opened the lightbulb box, " oh, its empty" I bit the box as Cole took it out of my mouth and snuck me a brownie instead.

"Clean up, Lloyd. We'll continue training tomorrow." Cole distracted Lloyd and gave him a broom. He smacked the punching back with it instead of cleaning. "What am I doing wrong, Sensei Wu? I can't seem to teach him to control his power." Jay complained. "Patience, Jay. Sometimes, the greatest opponent we face is ourselves, and that's especially true of Lloyd. Remember where he came from. He's the son of Lord Garmadon. It's going to take time for him to embrace the light." Wu said as I walked over to Lloyd. " Um Lloyd, maybe you should clean the bulbs." I said but almost got hit so i backed out. " ow!" I looked down and saw I had stepped in glass. Lloyd frowned seeing me get hurt so he turned to clean it up as Zane picked me up and took me to the bathroom to clean my foot

We returned to see Lloyd got a letter, from his school. "Formerly bad boys. Since the last time we were there, they've changed to the Darkley School for Great Children." Wu said as I raised my brow, " i don't by it" I shrugged as Zane put me on his shoulders. " They turned good?" Kai huffed. "Hmm, it says here there's going to be a ceremony." "I love ceremonies. That means there's going to be cake." Cole whispered to me. "Lloyd's change inspired them. Now they've invited Lloyd to give him an honorary degree in excellence." Wu said as I looked at Lloyd break the broom and headbutt the punching bag before falling. At least he swept up the glass first

I held tightly onto Kai as Ultra flew through the air, Lloyd guiding them. "Whoo-hoo-hoo! Now that we can ride the Dragon, we should get to Darkley's in no time." Jay cheered. "If Lloyd can get us there in one piece." Kai muttered. " Lloyd make sure you're gentle, theyre sensitive to sudden mov-" " Sudden what!" Lloyd moved quickly as we all screamed. "The reins! Let go of the reins!" Cole screamed as Lloyd dropped it and we landed on the ground. I got down and threw up. "Hehe. At least I'm getting better." Lloyd got down as Jay picked me up as I was woozy. "All the same, I'll take the reins going home. Just to be safe." Cole chuckled as we approached.

I noticed a kid in a blue uniform and black hair, " Lloyd?" " Brad?" Lloyd recognized them. " You came!" He ran over and hugged Lloyd, "So good to see you." " It is?" Lloyd hummed. " you put fire ants in my bed." He stated as I hissed. " ooooouch" I shivered. I had something similar when bailey got some on her fur then shook it on my bed. "Please forgive me. I wasn't myself and have learned the error of my ways." Brad moved his attention to us. "And you must be the ninja!" "Uh, guys. Meet Brad Tudabone." Lloyd introduced us. " hi" I waved. "Such a huge fan!" He shook all of our hands. I didn't like shaking his hand, it felt sweaty. Not nervous, sweaty in a waiting for something to happen way.

"Go good! Haha. Uh, please, will you not follow me to see the Principal?" Brad lead us inside as Cole commented on the lack of students in the classrooms. "Actually, today is a new Darkley School tradition: Ninja Day. We stay out of sight to honor the way of the ninja for showing us the light." Brad announced as I held onto Lloyd now. "Huh, this is a good school. I'm impressed." Cole smiled as Brad called to the principal, " Principal Noble? Lloyd and the ninja are here for the ceremony." Brad said. The principal said he would be out in a moment but his shadow moved oddly. Brad left to return to the flowers. 

"Um, heh, has anyone seen a teacher yet?" Jay looked at Zane who agreed, "Indeed, their absence is most strange." He hummed. "I'll see you now. Come in, come in." The principal said. He walked in but so no man, it was a skeleton dressed to seem like the principal. Some ginger with a lisp was standing on the table, "Welcome back, Lloyd." He greeted. " Uh, Gene?" "And welcome, ninja, to the new Darkley's School for Worse Boys!" Gene cut a rope as sandbags fell on all of us, knocking everyone out.
