It was late into the night now - the rain had set and puddles were scattered across the dirty concrete outside the factory. Cole and Jupiter returned to the factory, with Hector tagging along too. They found an easier entrance on the ground; a huge metal industrial door, slightly bent so there was an opening. All three of them snuck inside the drafty space.
"Look - there." Cole pointed at a column of metal, stuck upright from the ground. "Look at the side; see? Four circles." The other two noticed the symbol and glared at it.
"Yeah! That's what was on the guy's paper!" Hector whisper-shouted.
"Do you think it means anything important?" Jupiter asked them.
"Pretty sure it should; the orb-thing he was talking about might be related to it.." Hector looked around the dark factory's interior. Suddenly, a low voice emanated from the far side of the factory.
The three teenagers quickly dived behind a piece of machinery.
"Someone is definitely here. Maybe the person from before?" Jupiter breathed. Cole looked at her and nodded slowly. They peeked over the edge of the metal appliance and saw a glimpse of two people--no wait--three people, gathered by the factory equipment at the end of the room.
"I've got it - you should thank me, that was a tricky thing to accomplish." Another voice mumbled from the mystery trio in the dark.
"Give it to Ultra Violet - did you get any info on the last one?" A deeper voice said.
"I'm not certain, but I hear it's in a trophy..."
A woman's voice then filled the space; "Then we'll find a way to get it; maybe our little friend can do with another task-"
"Ouch! Don't nudge me!"
Jupiter, Cole and Hector lowered their heads behind the machinery once again.
"Isn't that--Ultraviolet and Killow?" The stardust ninja whispered in shock. "But who's that other one?"
"That's Fugidove; kinda confused as to why he's part of this..." Cole whispered back. "So the report about a Sons of Garmadon member was true -"
Hector cleared his throat. "Hey, ninja - aren't you gonna go beat them up or something? They're clearly in the middle of a scheme - what if they're the ones who killed Dr What's-his-face?"
"Master Wu always says that a plan is the best way to start off something like this - we need a plan before we get to some ass-kicking," Cole told him. "Let's head back to the others and tell them who's involved."
