I eventually figured that landing in a nearby cave and waiting for them to pass before heading back towards Ninjago City would be the best plan, so I flew down into the closest cave and hid. I didn't see them pass due to the fog, but I didn't care. Eventually, I heard a voice that I easily recognized.

"You must be the ninja's new addition." Lord Garmadon was somewhat hidden in the shadows, but his red eyes easily gave him away.

"What do you want, I'm in enough trouble as it is." I was trying to keep my anger down, but it was rather difficult due to constantly thinking about what happened.

"It was a fight with the other ninja, was it not?" Neither of us were making eye contact, but I could tell he was smirking out of the corner of his eye.

My anger started to show through a bit. "So what if it was?"

"I wonder why… Perhaps it was your abilities?" I knew I shouldn't open up to my enemy, but I couldn't help myself.

"They hate me even though they know I can't control my element, and when I do something even slightly wrong, Kai blows his top at me. It's so frustrating!" I turned away, slamming my fist against the wall.

"Well, I have two offers for you, to help you solve one of those two problems." His smirk turned into a grin. "The first is an offer for you to join me. Together, we'll have no problems destroying the ninja."

I turned back to face him. "And the other offer…?"

This time, he looked away. "There is one person who could help you control your element better than the ninja, or even Wu."

I pressed a bit, showing a little interest. "Who is this person and where can I find them?"

He glanced back. "I won't share his name, but I will mention his location." He paused for a second, as if unsure about answering fully. "If my memory is correct, you should be able to find him where you first arrived."

I quickly remembered. "Thanks."

He chuckled. "I didn't think I'd be receiving thanks from a ninja."

He disappeared into the shadows, probably heading back to wherever he stays the night.

I sighed, looking at my phone. "Maybe I should head back to the island…"

I dialed up a number I had not touched in a while, and left a voicemail.

"Hey, it's me Lucas, just calling to let you know that I'm coming back to your island. I hope you're there, Chen."

That was the final chapter of Descent into Madness. It had to come to a close eventually, and there's no better way to end it than like this. See you next story. -Death by Amber
