My brother Hunter and I sat in our apartment discussing the incident from last month when Hunter had to face our Grandmother, Teneris, and defeat her. "Has Lloyd been told any of this?" Hunter asked me.

I shook my head. "Apparently he's gone back to traveling throughout to Ninjago to protect those in need. I'm sure the Sensei will let him know the next time they see him." I chugged the rest of my tea and let out a joyful sigh after I had finished my drink. "So before you left for your mission Cyrus Borg contacted me. He want's us to head to head to Borg Tower for a fancy dinner party."

"That'll be a nice change of pace for us. When is this party?" Hunter questioned.

"Tomorrow night at around dinner time." I told him. Hunter got our fancy suits ready while I made sure our vehicles were ready to travel back to Ninjago. 

The next evening soon arrived and my brother and I were getting our suits on. "Hey Nathan, why do you think Cyrus Borg is inviting us over to a party? I mean we did stop the Destroyer and Overlord from basically obliterating his Tower and Ninjago a long time ago." Hunter said putting his tie on.

"Good Question Hunter. I'm sure there's a good reason." I looked at the time and saw we had to get going. "Let's go brother." We both ran to our vehicles and hopped in them. It took only a few short seconds to power up the vehicles and just like that we were able to create portals back to Ninjago. 

Our cars ripped through the portal a block away from Borg Tower. There was a long line of fancy cars and limousines stretching from the entrance of the tower to us. Valet were taking all the vehicles to a secure location and parking them for the guests. Eventually the valet took both my brother and I's vehicles and parked them as we entered the building and headed up the elevator to the party.

When the elevator doors opened, we were surprised to see quite a large ballroom. Cyrus Borg immediately noticed us and came over to greet us. He was in a massive spider legged chair. "If it isn't the Dimension Holders. I'm so happy that the two of you could make it. It's a pleasure to finally meet the two of you." Cyrus Borg was a well dressed man who wore a black turtle neck and a gray sports coat. He is extremely intelligent and is responsible for the reconstruction of many of the disasters that have occurred recently in both Ninjago and the IS dimension.

"Thank you for inviting us Doctor Borg." I said as my brother and I bowed in thanks. "So what is the special occasion for this dinner party?" 

"I've just been very stressed out with the construction of not only New Ninjago City but the Infinite Stratos Academy as well. This party is a way to calm my nerves. However, I am afraid that this party isn't really helping." Cyrus frowned. 

"Why is that Doctor?" Hunter asked the man.

"Please Please boys. Come chat with my privately for a minute." Cyrus Borg dragged us into an office and closed the door as he checked to make sure know one followed him. "Again thank you both for coming. I'm sorry that I couldn't have invited you on better circumstances."

"What do you mean?" I questioned the man. 

"Recently I found a file in my computer system regarding something I gave a disapproval for a while ago." Cyrus paused for a moment. "My chief engineer came to me with a mech that could harness elemental energy." Hunter and I looked at each other in shock. "As you can guess why, I immediately shut down the idea. It seems though that someone still pursued the project and has been working on it behind the company's back."

"So why invite us?" my brother asked. 

"I invited you so you can help me find the person who took the mech design. Everyone from the company is here and are mixed in with some very wealthy people to not raise suspicion on what I am doing. Please Dimension Holders, find this person so I can find and eliminate the mech." 

My brother and I looked at each other wondering what to think of all this. After a few moments had passed we both nodded to each other and agreed to help Doctor Borg.
