" stay calm green! Don't panic, just breathe.." Garmadon had pulled himself free from the guards that had been guarding him. None had gone after him though. He had ran over to the green ninja who was laying onto the ground.
" the poison will spread slower it you stay calm... I'm here don't worry.."
he held his body tight to his own. Not wanting anymore else to hurt him.
Lloyd's body felt cold in his arms. His whole face was covered in black marks from the poison, and Lloyd was trying hard not to panic. He held tight onto Garmadon's shirt, scared to let go, scared to... lose him again.
He still didn't know. Was the shadow lord going to tell him...?
He himself wasn't able to. He wasn't sure if he even dared to tell him. Would he abound him if he found out....? Would he just let him die...?
Wait... why was he thinking like this. Garmadon would never leave anyone behind. He was a good man!
" he's manipulating my mind... be aware " Lloyd whispers weakly to Garmadon who now looked down at him.
" I know... I know better than anyone else, about his powers..."
" he said you were the last pice.." Lloyd whispers, still holding tight onto his shirt.
" yes... I know..." Garmadon answered him. He knew he was the last part that the shadow lord needed to complete his form, but he would never give up himself... unless...
" if you let the boy live... I will let you have me..." Garmadon suddenly spoke up, not turning his attention from the boy in his arms, that not was looking shocked up at him.
"N..no!" Lloyd begged, not wanting Garmadon to do this.
" oh? You don't think I can have both?" The dark figure smiles down at them.
" you can't take the last pice from me without me willingly giving it up" Garmadon now finally lifted his head, turning it away from Lloyd, and up at the ugly monster in front of him.
The shadow lord groans angrily. He knew Garmadon was right, but he hated admitting it.
" well, I honestly wish to wipe out your whole family line, so that means the boy must die" from an angry expression, his face slowly turns into a dark smirk.
Garmadon was confused at this. He knew the shadow lord hated him and his brother. But Green had nothing to do with him and his family line.
" he's no...." he began but suddenly stops as he finally realized what he truly meant.
He slowly turns his attention back at the boy in his arms. Lloyd was struggling to keep himself awake now.
His blonde hair.... green eyes... the exact same color as his.... " ll...Lloyd...?"
Garmadon was shocked.
He had been told by Fang that his son had been alive, and all, but honestly, deep inside, he had been convicted that his young son had been killed...
But this boy was... this boy had to be Lloyd.
The green ninja... of course it would be his own son, being related to the first spinjitsu master.
This was his little Lloyd, but he was slowly dying in his arms. He was loosing him... again...
He was... soon going to be gone ... forever... again.
" n..no..." Garmadon whispers quietly as he pulls Lloyd into a deep hug in his arms. Tears now rolling down his cheeks...
" my son... "
Lloyd slowly snapped back to reality by those words. He knew?
He felt useless... he couldn't say anything or move at all. The poison was effecting his body..,
" you..... YOU MONSTER..." Garmadon's voice suddenly got darker than Lloyd could. First he had tough it was spoken to him, but he slowly lifted his head, and noticed that he had been laid flat down onto the floor while Garmadon was standing over him, facing the shadow lord. He was furious... he could tell by just looking at his now purple glowing eyes. His dark brown hair, with some shades of grey here and there was slowly rising up as a dark Ora surrounded his father...
" how dare you !" Garmadon yells.
" how dare you hurt my son!"
Suddenly, he attacked the dark figure! Raising a punch to his face, almost managing to hit him, but the shadow lord managed to escape him just in time.
But Garmadon wasn't going to stop now. He was mad. Really mad.
This of course wasn't a surprise to the shadow lord. This was actually a part of his plan. Getting Garmadon to obtain his dark lord for, and when he had reached his full form, he could kill him and gain his pice without needing Garmadon to willingly give it up to him. He knew it was the only way. But first, he needed Garmadon to finally watch his son die. That would force him fully out.
For every minute that passed, darker and darker his skin got, and his body started transforming into its Oni shape.
" good, good! Watch him die! WATCH HIM DIE!"
" MONSTER!!!" Garmadon yelled, purple flames surrounding him.
" you will never rule ninjago!"
With that, Garmadon created a large ball of flaming purple fire, and threw it towards the shadow lord who was to slow to escape it. The flames exploded and he was thrown to the ground. Garmadon was faster and now pined him down to the ground, holding a fist of fire, ready to punch him.

" GARMADON!" A familiar voice called out, snapping Garmadon back to reality.
" Wu...?" He slowly turned to look if his brother really stood there. And he did. He had already knocked out the guards, and Clouse was laying behind them unconscious.
He was kneeling down beside Lloyd, carefully lifting his head to help him drink a tea he had brought with him.
Garmadon watched them. Lloyd's eyes were closed...
" is he...." Garmadon began, but couldn't bring himself to complete the sentence. Was his son dead....?
" he's still in there... stay calm. I will take care of Green, while you finish him off" Wu spoke, tending to Lloyd carefully.
Garmadon didn't want to look away, but he had to finish off this dark lord.
" give up Garmadon, it's over, your so. Is dead and he will never return to you again. Never" the shadow lord grins up at him.
" I will lock you up back in hell" Garmadon whispers, trying hard to not lose his temper. His skin was slowly turning normal again.
But then, he saw it.
He saw the answer to everything.
He saw the alpha bracelet of Solomon on the shadow lords wrist.
" take that off, now" Garmadon commanded, again raising his fist of purple fire again.
" never" the lord spoke, grinning up at him.
" then I will city of your hand. Without being fully recovered, this will hurt you and you won't be able to heal, now take it off or you will have to live with only one hand for the rest of your life"
The shadow lord knew he was right and gave in. The boy was dead anyway, removing the bracelet wouldn't effect anything. And it's power had no effect on him if they decided to put the omega onto him. But Garmadon wasn't stupid enough to do that anyway.
Garmadon let go of the arm that carried the bracelet. The shadow lord lifted it up to his mouth and whispers the spell that would command the bracelet to open up and let go.
Garmadon grabbed the bracelet and and took it on onto himself.
" no more torture from this evil item." Garmadon spoke, and casted a spell to hold him down while he would join Wu in helping Lloyd.

Through the hallways of the league, Jey Misaco and Damon ran. They were supposed to meet up with 47 now so they could plan out their next move. But when they had reached the meeting point. She wasn't there.
" I... I thought she said to meet up by the medical center, like right here! I'm sure of it!" Damon spoke, not liking the suspicious glares he got from Jey who now was keeping an eye on him.
" this better not be a trap." Jey sneered at him, looking around, to see if there was anyone else there.
So far, no one.
" she's never late... never! Something must be wrong..." Damon mumbled to himself as he was getting nervous.
" just calm down, we can wait for her a bit longer" Misaco patted him onto his shoulder, giving him a warm smile.
He smiled shyly back. These people were very nice, he usually doesn't even get this nicely treated by the league. Only 47 and Armen had been his good close friends. 77 as well, but they hadn't exactly talked for many years...
" she's never late..."
