Wu opened the gate into the courtyard, and scanned it for life...Specifically, Misako. After double checking, he waved for his brother to enter. Garmadon ran across the courtyard, and onto the deck.
" I'll check inside to see where Misako is. " Wu said. Garmadon nodded, and Wu snuck inside. He scanned the hallways, seeing them deserted.
" Wu, there you are." Misako called from the kitchen. Wu walked in, smiling warmly at his sister-in-law.
" Yup, here I am, just me and only me..." He responded. Misako raised an eyebrow, and nodded.
" I noticed..." She said slowly. " How's Garmadon?"
" Oh, fine..." Wu said, as his brother snuck past the kitchen doorway. Suddenly, there was a loud creeeekk. Wu gasped, as Garmadon rolled out of the way, landing swiftly on his feet. Misako snapped her attention to the sound, and then back to Wu.
" Did you hear that?" She asked.
" Hear what?" Wu asked, smiling. She shrugged.
" Eh, must be me.." She put down her cup of tea, and began walking out of the room. Wu gasped, and stood in front of her, blocking her view.
" What are you doing?" She asked.
"...Thought I'd keep the conversation going...So, you were wondering about Garmadon..?" His brother scrambled to his feet, and quietly hid in a closet.
" Well, yeah....I worry about him..." She began, ducking past Wu, and walking towards the closet where Garmadon hid. Wu racked his brain for an idea, and dropped to the floor, creating as loud of a THUD as possible.
" Oww, my head...!" He moaned, faking a headache. Misako turned her attention away from the closet, and knelt down next to Wu.
" Are you ok? Do you need something?" She asked sympathetically. Garmadon opened the closet door, and silently ran down the hallway. Once he was out of sight, Wu jumped to his feet.
" Oops, all better....See you later, Misako!" He called, running down the hallway after his brother. Misako shook her head, and sighed.
" Boys...." She mumbled.
Wu ran into Garmadon's room, and closed the door behind him. He sighed, and slid down to the floor. Garmadon laughed from his bed.
" You..Are such an actor.." He chuckled.
" Yeah, to save your hide!" Wu replied. Garmadon laughed once more.
" Thanks." He smiled.
" Can you please tell her already?" Wu sighed." I can't keep doing this..."
" What, helping me?"
" No, acting like a fool infront of her." Wu cracked a smile, and Garmadon nodded.
" Ok...I'll do it." He nodded.

As the sun set over Ninjago, Misako walked out into the courtyard. She looked around, trying to find someone." Garmadon, are you out here? Wu said you wanted to see me..?" She called.
" I do.." A voice said. Misako looked around frantically.
" Where are you?" She asked.
" I'm right behind you." The voice said, closer than before. She snapped around, and gasped. Just as promised, Garmadon stood only a foot behind her. He smiled warmly at her, and she sighed a sigh of relief.
" I'm glad to see you're alright..." She said, as they embraced.
" Alright isn't the correct term....More of worse." She pulled back, and looked up at him. The moonlight shone off of his eyes, and their true color was revealed to no longer be green, but red.
