Finding Fate

"'Do something, babe, say something' (say something). 'Lose something, babe, risk something' (you're losin' me). 'Choose something, babe, I got nothing' (got nothing)

To believe unless you're choosin' me.'

You're losin' me. Stop (stop, stop), you're losin' me. Stop (stop, stop), you're losin' me.

I can't find a pulse

"So... Is there something going on between you two?" Nya asked with a ghost of a grin as we split from Misako, Dareth and Little Wu, and headed for the police station... again.

I rubbed my temples and my eyes. "Please Nya... not right now."

She touched my shoulder, "Sorry, I think Jay's rubbed off on me."

"You guys are cute together."

"Bleeeh," she stuck her tongue out, "enough boy talk! There's something I want to show you once this thing is all over."

Grateful for the change of subject, I raised an eyebrow. "Show me?" I echoed.

"Welllllll... after Master Wu disappeared, Jay and I found a little workshop in the city and I've been using it to tinker around with some projects, including vehicles for the team. There's something I think you'll like."

"Better be a motorbike," I replied, throwing her a teasing grin.

She mimicked zipping her lips with her fingers and shrugged.

"Hurry up slow pokes!" Kai called from down the path, nearing the entrance to the police station. My gaze dropped to the wreckage behind him and Nya gasped at the sight. Glass and debris littered the paths officers swept clean, my head thanking my lucky stars that I wore thick enough boots. The front of the station had been completely damaged and in the middle of it all was a huge garbage truck.

The Commissioner meet us outside, greeting us quickly with a very concerned expression. Pixal broke off to examine the state of the truck. At the same time, he explained their quiet interrogation with Harumi and how Garmadon broke into the room, knocking out the officers and taking Harumi with him as they fled into the early morning. Nya grabbed my hand.

"And you're sure it was Garmadon?" Zane confirmed.

"Yes, but he's not the man I remembered. This is someone... else. Like they just brought back the worst parts. Twenty of my officers tried to take him down, but, just..." he sighed, rubbing his temples and fiddling with his moustache. "We couldn't stop him. I tried to reason with him, but it was like there was nothing left inside to reason with."

I looked down at the floor. Letting go, Nya stepped forward,

"But you saw where they were going. He didn't just break Harumi out and disappear. They must have left a clue." Her voice almost sounded pleading, coaxing me to look up.

"All they left us with is broken glass, a handful of sore asses, and a healthy dose of humility." He gestured to the debris and then sighed again. "Sorry I couldn't be of more help."

"You did what you could. Besides, this is my fight to bear." I felt my eyes instantly turn to him as he stepped forward. He's not serious, is he?

"You sure you're up for this, son?"

Kai placed a hand on Lloyd's shoulder. "We all are." Cole shrugged,

"And look on the bright side. It's your father and Harumi. At least the rest of the Sons of Garmadon are locked away, right?"
