The bounty has landed in a weird location. There was nothing but water around the area along with huge pillars. Harumi looked around with her hood placed on her head, "Is this where we will be living?" she inquired as she memorised her surroundings not knowing whether she liked it or not, "Just until we know you're safe." Lloyd responded.

Harumi glanced at the floor, "Don't you have a headquarters?" she was hoping that it would be a lot safer there than where they were currently located. It looked suspicious and unsettling to her but what more could she do about it?

"it's too in the open," Lloyd stated, "The Sons of Garamdon will be looking for you." he placed both of his hands on her shoulders realising she was uncomfortable and still devastated, "We'll need to keep moving." and with that, he walked away but slowly reach to her to which she smiled and held his hand.

They walked up towards where the rest of the Ninja were which made them instantly focus on them, "So, Harumi!" Cole spoke, "Looks like we're gonna be..." he thought for a bit, "Roomies! For a while,"

"You have all been so gracious to take me in since our palace was..." she paused for a second, "taken away. And—"

"You're safe with us!" Jay jolted trying to give some hope, "That assumption is not entirely justified, Jay." Zane quickly responded, "We know very little about the Sons of Garmadon's full capabilities."

"We know nothing about them. Period." Kai elaborated, Nya was walking around, "We do know they're after the three Oni Masks." she went towards where the huge screen was and started clicking a few buttons. The image that popped up was the Masks themselves.

"Unfortunately, they already have one of them." Lloyd was walking with Harumi as they both gently smiled at each other.

"Pixal scanned everywhere for the third mask, but it came up empty. It's as if it... never existed." Zane protested as he was in deep thought, "Then we need to focus on who's giving the orders." The Green Ninja spoke, "A group this organized must have a leader."

"Maybe someone from our past?" Jay inquired as he placed his hand towards his chin, "Uh, forgive me... but is that underwear?" Harumi questioned as she picked it up slightly disturbed. Jay quickly took action and snatched it off her, hiding it behind him, "We're usually more organized—" he chuckled slightly embarrassed, he cleared his thoughts awkwardly while the others just smirked at him, "—but our leader got lost in a time stream. Uh, they're Cole's." he blames his best friend who gave him a weird look.

"They're blue!"

Kai just laughed, "You're lucky they're not yellow." Harumi could only chuckle based on their actions, she could get used to this.

"What about the suspect captured at the heist in Borg Tower?" Nya interrupted as they looked back at the widescreen, "I can stay behind with Harumi if you wanna press him on who he works for?" she inquired as she glanced at the others.

"The police have him in custody, but he has refused to talk. He is set for release today." Pixal replied from the screen which gave her the attention, "Then if Johnny Law can't get him to talk... perhaps Johnny Ninja can?" Kai spoke as he cracked his knuckles.

Lloyd, Jay, Kai and Cole were walking towards a building in Ninjago, "Uh, I thought we were in a hurry to get to the police?" Jay spoke with a confused look on his face, "A quick stop. If the perp won't talk, maybe we can get something to loosen his lips." Lloyd replied.

"Mystake's Tea Shop," Cole stated as they entered the building, "I wonder what magic tea she can brew for us."

"Is Mystake here?" Lloyd inquired to an old lady who was climbing down the ladder steps carefully so she wouldn't fall.
