Becoming late night for ninjago, all Acronix could think was 'is Krux still alive?'. Well he should be since its been 40 years. To him atleast, and that Krux would of been around 65. He still would be young. But Cyrus made it to where Acronix was strict to only the tower because he needed to heal. Even Pixel made it clear.

He didn't mind it, he just wanted to see his brother. But sitting on the roof of the giant building, in the cold night surly wouldn't help his situation. Though he let out a deep sigh and closed his faded gold eyes. He let himself go for the moment to meditate. Which actually caused him to feel a surge of powerful energy run through him. Letting out a sharp gasp and opening his eyes, he sawn waved of color float around him, but disappeared when his mind was disturbed.

He felt a slight determination before he focused his mind on nothing but that energy surge. He was able to have it summon again, thus having his eyes see the very colors of the energy surge. He opened his eyes slightly and smiled at the accomplishment. He touched a blue stream and it fused with his hand, making it a liquid form that became a stream again when fell back into the force.

Watching it as it disappeared when his mind refocused on the world. Looking out to the city below, he stood up with determination in his eyes. "Im going to make you proud brother, as I have our element again!" He said joyfully. He really wanted to show Cyrus Borg, so he decided to head down to the inventors work space. But also being quiet about it since it's the dead of night. But he slowed down to a stop when some realization hit.

What if he showed him, and he was able to contact garmadon or wu? Or the other elementals at that Then? Then for sure he would be in trouble. Now feeling a rush of hesitation hit him, he decided it was best to not tell Cyrus at all. Slowly he walked down the stairs and into the room quietly. "Hey Mr. Borg?" He called out quietly. Though he quickly shut up when he noticed that the man was asleep on his desk. He quietly smiled as he walked over, after picking up a nearby blanket that was neatly folded.

He unfolded it and let it fall naturally to his ankles, though he was curios of the design. He held it up and looked at the design, though his eyes widen at the gorgeous design.

"This is so gorgeous, oh my heavens", nixy muttered as he looked back at Borg. Smiling gently, he covered up the man and before he left, a image caught his attention.

A old scenery of mountains, the photo weary from how old it was. He gently took it off the wall and looked at it closer. The rays of warmth colors brightly shown. Though he had a small memory hit him, which made him drop it on the ground. Shocked, he remembered taking the very photo. But the rest of the memory was very blurry, even the people was very blurry. Recalling some sort of ship. But his head started to ache in pain. "Ow.." he muttered as he held his head and picked up the photo. Placing it back on the table before he headed out the room.

"So I took the photo...but why was everything else so foggy...is there something Cyrus isn't telling me..?" He questioned quietly to himself as he used the elevator to go down to the first level. He was given access to roam freely in the building if he wished so. But never out. It upset him that he really couldn't explore the outside world, but none the less that he was very excited to see new things the building has to offer.

Acronix was quite amazed still by the elevator, but even though it scared him a bit by the jolts it gave when taking off. When arriving at the bottom floor, the door swung open, letting the time twin out. He quietly walked around the dark lobby, the dimmed red lights on the ground gave off a warmth feeling. Though he walked to the front doors and peered outside. The city colors was as gorgous as the northern lights itself. He had once visited the cold climate with his family in his youth just to see them.

Though unexpectedly, he heard footsteps from behind him, which got his mind set Into defense mode. Even if he was still recovering, and that his leg has not fully healed with the help of the fast forward effect. Seeing a small shadow in the window, he bent his body backwards and had one hand land on the ground firmly. Seeing a bat flung forward from a loose grip, breaking the glass infront of him. Causing the alarm to go off.

The figure seemed to jump by the sudden alarm, which Acronix scoffed and pushed his body backwards to land on his feet in a crouched position. But thats without tripping the intruder and having their legs in a locked mode with his own. His left foot firmly planted on their back to hold them down with one hand grabbing one arm that was presumed to be the dominant one. "Gah! Get off me freak!" The male barked, his voice giving way to identity.

"Sad that you can't come up with any good insults", Acronix simply said before his face turned pale by the amount of drones that surround him. But he was only gently lifted off from the intruder, while the intruder was under arrest. "Mr. Acronix, please return back to your destination for the night. We will have this situated." One of the drones said to the time twin. He wanted to say something, but seeing as the fact of how swift they are, he just complied.

By morning Acronix was wide awake, and by over night he was fully healed. But he had to prove it to Cyrus that he was, he said it himself. Acronix really wanted to try something far more entertaining than just regular old tests.  He sat in a stool, bored as Cyrus was calculating his records from previous tests. "Mr. Borg, do you have anything. I could test my combat skills? Its been a while and I'd like to see if I still have good rythem". The taller said as he stretched.

"I dont want to risk anything in case you're still healing. Its not possible for one to heal so rapidly from a terrible incident." "But please! I want to prove to you that I'm healed!" The time twin whined a bit in a counter argument. Which had Cyrus silent. "Fine. If you insist. I can call Pixal to see if she would be willing to do so.." he muttered, but his small frown quickly faded away when he heard a small happy squeal from Acronix. Making the man blush a bit.

Cyrus quietly called pixal, who ratherly picked up quickly. "Father! What has you calling me this early in the morning? Didn't you have a meeting in 30 minutes?" Pixal said in a joyful tone, she really loved when her creator called her for any reason. "I do, but I want you to test Acronix for me to see if he is in good shape, he claims to be." Cyrus explained, Pixel fell a bit silent, unaware that his name would be said. She looked back to lloyd who looked at her with wide eyes before she ended up bolting off.

Lloyd followed right after her, but just BARELY missed her when she took off in her Samurai mech. "Acronix is alive and she knew?!" He said mainly to himself. A bit ticked off in the matter, already knowing he has to assemble the gang as soon as possible.

But though now knowing the ninjas will soon know that Acronix is alive, pixal had to quickly tell Cyrus. Mainly because she supports in what her father was doing as long he knows what he is doing. Though just half way to the city, she was abrutly stopped by a sudden huge wave of energy. That very energy created a strong gust of wind against her mech. "W- what is happening?!" She yelled to herself. But she looked up to see a multicolored vortex open just beside her.

A beam of red and yellow light came crashing down. But he landed perfectly on his feet. He grinned and stood up properly. Feeling young again. "I'm back ninjago. And aint nobody stopping me and my brother from taking over this time." He said in a low tone to himself.
