Garmadon stood in the doorway to Tristan's apartment thinking that neither Draiko nor Harumi would have trusted Akita and he said as much.
Lloyd turned toward his father"What did you say?"
"I said Draiko and Harumi would never have fallen for that.And now that you arent the green ninja you should be more carful about who your are with"
In the blink of an eye Lloyd grabbed Kai sword,Cole grabbed Lloyd and held him back but he wasnt quick enough.Blood trickled down the blade of the sword.Garmadon looked down to see that the sword had grazed his chest,stinging with every breath he took.
"I can feel your pain" Lloyd hissed"And maybe I enjoy just a little bit...Does that make me insane?Haven’t been the same since I died...Doesn’t mean that I plan to retire,and now I have the power to bathe all of you in entertaining fire!"
Cole and Kai pulled Lloyd away from his father,but the rogue ninja fought against their grip"I hate you Garmadon,you'll never change!And even if you do,I'm done giving you second chances."
Zane wrestled the sword out of Lloyd's hand,It clattered to the floor staining the beige carpet bright purple.
The former Green ninja looked down at the staimed carpet and laughed"So you do bleed"Tears fell from Lloyd's face as he smiled.
   Death loved Akita as if she was her own child.After seeing Madu return to the immortal realm it didnt take her long to figure out what had happened.She found Akita sitting on the apartment roof her knees pulled up to her face.Death hugged Akita tightly.
"He betrayed me" Akita muttered leaning against the immortal
rain began to fall but Death's large hat kept them from becoming drenched in the downpour.
"I know that" Death said choosing her words carefully"But,Akita you must remember that you were planning to betray Lloyd's trust"
"Madu betrayed me!He said my Mother didnt love me and thats not tru-" Akita looked up at Death"She didnt love me..."
"No she didn't"
"Why not?!"
"Because she thought you had ruined everything,Vex had to give up his form,they had to move and cut ties with everyone they knew...but she didnt deserve you Akita you deserve to be loved but she doesnt deserve your love"
