"What happened?" Kai asked as we arrived in the outskirts of New Ninjago City. The whole place was abandoned, not a soul in sight. I thought it looked like a ghost town, but I felt like I shouldn't say that out loud.

"No power, that's what happened." Cole stated, and well, he was right. The sight might have been unnerving for some, but thankfully I wasn't afraid of ghost. I was afraid of people. There were piles of cars on the sides of the streets, and powered out security bots laid in every direction I looked at.

"Are we too late?" Zane questioned as we walked along. Suddenly one of the ninja stepped on something that seemed to be a trip wire, and the piled up cars on the sides all fell down to form a roadblock. Suddenly a wave of people all climbed on top of it and let out battle cries as they eyed us. Feeling anxious, I backed away behind the ninja, before standing still right behind Kai.

"Outsiders must answer to the Postman!" Some random guy shouted and pointed to the side, where a postman was indeed leaning against the wall.

"Return, to, sender!" The Postman yelled as another man climbed, or rather, rolled up the mountain on his wheelchair.

"Ah, you finally made it. Don't mind the savages. Since power went out, everyone here has grown a bit bored. Their imagination knows no bounds." The man was about to continue when he noticed P.I.X.A.L and Nya approach us.

"P.I.X.A.L., amazing! You're...powered." The man was more than amazed, from what I could tell.

"You need to stay in character, Borg. This is no fun if we're not all committed." The Postman called from further away as the man grumbled. If this man know P.I.X.A.L... This must be Cyrus Borg! Her creator, I heard the ninja talk about him a few times.

"Oh, I'll have you committed if you don't all leave us at once. Now shoo!" Cyrus Borg shooed the people away as I let out a sigh of relief and finally stepped out from behind Kai.

"We have real problems to address. P.I.X.A.L., what's powering you?" His face lit up as P.I.X.A.L walked to his side.

"Zane gave me half of his heart." P.I.X.A.L. explained as Cyrus's eyes lit up.

"Thank you, Zane. I am greatly indebted. Unfortunately, the hard drive was stolen with the digital imprint of the Overlord. You'll be unable to erase him with your Techno Blades until we find it." Cyrus said with a tint of regret in his voice.

"Aw, don't worry, we already had a little run in with the red-handed suspect. Or, should I say white-handed? He left behind a white scale. Get this, he's Serpentine!" Jay blabbered as he showed Cyrus the white scale we found.

"Lucky for us, the last Serpentine were sealed within a right under the city, so it's about time we pay them a little visit." Cole stated as  he looked around then started walking towards the closest man hole to us, I turned to follow him when Cyrus spoke up again.

"And who would you be?" I knew he was talking to me, so I slowly turned around and opened my mouth to answer him.

"I-I'm o-one of... My name i-is-" But I couldn't handle talking to new people. Especially if this was the world renewed master inventor Cyrus Borg. What if I made a fool of myself, what if I offended him somehow, what if... Maybe I'll just bow and-

"This is (y/n), he is one of Sensei Garmadon's students and has offered to help us in destroying the Overlord." Nya suddenly said as she walked up to us.

"He's a little shy." Nya added as I nodded along. Cyrus Borg smiled ad gave me a small greeting before turning to P.I.X.A.L.

"T-thank you..." I thanked Nya as she smiled at me.
