The Bounty lands in Hollow's Buff, where are a lot of gulls quacking loudly.

"Is this where we'll be living?" Harumi asked Lloyd.

"Just until we know you're safe." The Green Ninja replied, smiling.

"Don't you have a headquarters?"

"It's too in-the-open. The Sons of Garmadon will be looking for you. We'll need to keep moving." Lloyd leads Harumi to the bridge, where the others are casually hanging around.

"So, Harumi, looks like we're gonna be...roomies for a while." Cole said, earning an annoyed sigh from Kai. Cole looked at the Master of Fire and shrugged. Y/n had to stifle a laugh from the uncomfortableness Cole just created.

Harumi ignored the Master of Earth, "You have all been so gracious to take me in since our palace was...taken away, and—"

"You're safe with us." Jay tried to reassure the Princess.

"That assumption is not entirely justified, Jay. We know very little about the Sons of Garmadon's full capabilities." Zane replied to Jay.

"We know nothing about them. Period." Kai stated.

"We do know they're after the three Oni masks. Unfortunately, they already have two of them." Y/n said, sighing. She showed the others the two stolen masks on the computer.

"Pixal scanned everywhere for the third mask, but it came up empty. It's as if...it never existed." Zane added.

"Then we need to focus on who's giving the orders. A group this organized must have a leader." Lloyd replied.

"Maybe someone from our past?" Jay said, thinking out loud. Harumi looked at her left and saw underwear, blue underwear, laying on the control pannel.

"Uh, forgive me, but is that...underwear?" Harumi carefully picks it up, showing it to the rest.

Jay quickly snatches it from Harumi's grip, and chuckles embarrassed. "We're usually more organized. Ahem. But our leader got lost in a time stream." He cleared his throat, "Uh, they're Cole's."

"They're blue!" Cole protested.

Kai laughed, "You're lucky they're not yellow." He said, making Harumi mutter a small 'gross'.

"Heh." She raised her eyebrows, disgusted. Lloyd looked at the three, annoyed.

"What about the suspect captured at the heist in Borg Tower? I can stay behind with Harumi if you wanna press him on who he works for." Nya suggested.

Pixal's familiar voice was heard, "The police have him in custody, but he has refused to talk. He is set for release today."

"Then if Johnny Law can't get him to talk, perhaps Johnny Ninja can?" Kai cracked his nuckles, as a awkward silence formed.



Cole, Jay, Zane, Lloyd and Y/n cross the street, walking to Mistaké's tea shop.

"Uh, I thought we were in a hurry to get to the police." Jay said, confused.

"A quick stop. If the perp won't talk, maybe we can get something to loosen his lips." Lloyd replied, walking into the tea shop. 

Cole looked at the sign of the shop, "Mistaké's tea shop. I wonder what magic tea she can brew up for us." He muttered, before following the others.
