As the day goes by with the royal knights climbing tree by tree having no luck in finding any of the stone soldiers. They were on the verge to giving up for the day, but as Sensei always say 'Knights never quit'. It was at the point where the sun was no longer in the sky and the moon took it's place giving the smallest bit of light. 

'I think we should stay low for tonight' Jay mouthed to Lloyd, but he shook his head in disagreement having faith that something would happen. Cole was partly asleep as he kept forcing his eyes open as the moved to different trees, Kai was on the same page as Lloyd of sticking with the plan, Jay was worried about Nya, Zane was onboard with anything, and Nya was listening to the voices in her head. 

Suddenly, a quiet crack from below them was heard most likely coming from a branch. They all looked down to see a single soldier alone walking straight ahead to somewhere. The knights simply followed the strange behavior as it lead them to a small camp full of stone warriors with weapons ready to go. The royals were simply amazed and curious at the same time as the strange soldiers trained in front of a man covered in deep black skin, with shades of red and purple as tattoos and outfit, and wore a crown that fit the king perfectly. 

The Overlord. 

He rose from his throne as he looked at the now knelling stone army and then in the jungle outside of his camp  to see a perfect view of the royal knights. The dark lord smirked, "As I love having a search party for those knights. I think that having them over would be quite fun wouldn't it?" He asked playfully as some of his soldiers noticed the knights in the trees and decided to silently climb up the tree. The soldiers just laughed along with the Overlord as he heard muffled screams coming from the trees he spotted. 

The warriors made way for the warriors that caught the knights with them somewhat struggling. They made their way to the front row to be face to face with the king of the dark island as they made the knights drop to their knees.  "Well look who joined the party" The Overlord chuckled. 

The boy royals tried to escape from their captors, but failed as they didn't even move an inch while Nya was staying as still as possible getting the Overlord's attention. He walked over to the defenseless girl and knelled down to her level, "You did good my child" He complemented to her as a single tear fell from her eye. 

The royals eyes widened in both surprise and confusion while the Overlord chuckled and took Nya by the arm and brought her to his throne. "I'm guessing she didn't tell you" He teased as he placed her in front of him getting the full view of her fellow comrades. 

"What is he talking about Nya?" Her brother asked in anger and concern. The princess looked down at the ground as she didn't have the courage to face her own team. 

"How about I answer my daughter" The king said with his words hitting home, "She was affected. The disease in now officially apart of her. She has been contacting me ever since she split the team up to find the mask which I am happy to accept as a gift." 

Cole shook his head in disbelief, "No you're lying! Nya would never do that to us! You don't have any proof!" He yelled. 

The Dark lord simply laughed, "Child, pull up your right sleeve" He demanded to the terrified princess. She took off the armor covering her arm, the glove, and finally pulling up her sleeve to revel the many black veins. 

"Why didn't you tell us?" Zane asked with worry. 

"I didn't want you to worry about it" was all Nya could say. 

"Now it's time for her full transformation and you all have front seats" The Dark lord said as a black haze started forming in his hands and brought them near Nya head. "Any last words my child?" He asked with a hiss. 

"You should have let me killed myself when you had the chance" She quivered as she took heavy breaths. The Overlord started moving his hands around the princess's head making her world go black as she could hear the royals, but mostly Jay screaming her name. The last thing she said before darkness was "I love you." 

Nya is gone 

This is something new

This is the daughter of the Overlord
