On Samukai's orders, Kruncha creates a love potion and bring total strangers together.

At Ninjago Academy, a bus had stopped in front of the gates before the students start exiting, including Jay, Zane, Cole and LJ. "I'm not so sure about this." LJ said as they walk along.

"Well, you look like a teenager now." Cole replied. "People are gonna ask questions if you're not in school."

"I just hope they like me here. Last school I was in, they didn't."

"Trust us, this is not as bad as Darkley's." Zane said.

"You do remember the name you're under when you attend Ninjago Academy, right?" Jay asked.

"Montgomery Wilson." LJ replied.

Kai and Nya soon came up to them. "Hey, guys." Nya said.

"Uh, hey, Nya." Jay replied.

"So, how is the new student liking this place, as a student?" Kai asked.

"I haven't really been here long enough to wonder if I like it or not." LJ replied. "I mean, I only seen it as a visitor."

"Oh, right." They soon head inside.

———

In the hallway, the Rangers head in as some of the girls see them enter, mostly looking at LJ. "Ooh, who's that new guy?" One of them asked.

"I don't know, but he is positively cute." Another girl replied as they came up to their lockers with LJ's assigned next to Jay's.

A young girl then turned to Aseey. "Hey, I think you should ask him out to the Winter Dance." She said.

"Um, I'm not sure, I mean, he's a new guy, and I don't want to disturb him." She replied.

"Well, if you don't, I'll go."

"Oh, okay." Aseey starts heading over to the Rangers.

"Our classroom is just right over there." Kai said to LJ, pointing to their classroom before turning to the others. "I think Miss Fortis is back from her maternity leave."

"So, what kind of person is she?" Jay asked as they start moving to the classroom while Nya went into hers while LJ was still setting his locker up, putting a photo of his younger version with the others.

He soon placed his bag and all his books into the locker before closing it as Aseey came up to him. "Uh, hi, um, I thought I might-" She cut herself off when she saw LJ's face. "LJ?"

LJ shushes her. "Sorry, but, the other students don't know it's me." He whispered. "They think I'm Montgomery Wilson."

"Montgomery Wilson?"

"Yeah. And it's a long story why I am like this."

"Maybe you can tell me over lunch, if you like."

"Um, okay then."

"And the academy's Winter Dance is on, if you want to be my date."

"Um, sure thing." He soon walked away, feeling awkward as Aseey turned to her friend and gave her a thumbs up, causing her to smile.

———

In the boys' classroom, LJ exhaled a little before sitting down with Kai, Jay, Zane and Cole, who see him blushing. "What's got you so cheery?" Kai asked.

"Remember Aseey?" He asked as he took off his beanie.

"Yeah, the girl from the park." Jay replied.

"She, uh, asked me out for this Winter Dance."

"And you said yes?"

"Sort of."

"Guess that leaves me and Kai without a date." Cole said.

"Who asked you guys out again?" Kai asked.

"Janice Meyers." Jay replied.

"I got her twin sister, Mandy." Zane said. "They seem like nice girls."

Skylor and Seliel soon came in as Kai sighed before Cole turned away. "Hey, Kai." Skylor said, sitting down next to him. "I was wondering about that new kid, does he have someone taking him to the Winter Dance?"

"Yes, in fact, Aseey asked him." He replied.

"Aseey? That lowly pipsqueak. Well, what about you?"

"Not yet."

"How about me?"

"No thanks."

"I'll have dad give you a raise if you come with me."

"Very well then." Skylor soon smiled and clicked her tongue before sitting down at another table, briefly looking at him.

Before Seliel could ask Cole, someone soon stepped in, causing her to sit down next to Skylor. The individual is shown to be a woman with black hair and glasses. "Good day, students." She said. "Yes, I'm back. And my baby boy is very healthy. It appears we have a new student in the class. I'll let him introduce himself."

LJ soon stood up. "Hello, my name is L- uh, Montgomery Wilson." LJ said, almost stumbling on saying his cover name. "And I hope we all get along pretty well." He soon sat down.

"Thank you, Montgomery. Now, to bring you up to speed, Principal Brown informed me of everything I missed. So, please be patient as I try to think of a question for you to answer."

———

Outside Darkley's Boarding School, Samukai watches as some Skulkins place Lloyd's stuff in a nearby bin before Kruncha and Nuckal came up to him. "Master Samukai, the Rangers are currently at school, and it appears that the girls are asking the boys out to some dance." Nuckal said.

"Hmm." Samukai thinks for a bit. "Maybe love can be used to our advantage. Kruncha, work on a love potion and give it to Skel-pid. She is the only one who can turn strangers into lovers through invisibility."

"Yes, my lord." Kruncha said before taking off.

———

Several hours later, Kruncha pours some red liquid into a can before putting the lid on and looked at the nozzle. "Are you sure that will work." Nuckal asked as he came up to him and took it.

"Give it a try on Skel-pid." Kruncha points to a nearby Skulkin with angel wings on the back of its ribcage.

Nuckal turns to Skel-pid, aims the can at her and sprays it. Skel-pid suddenly turned to him. "Oh, how cute you are with that blue armour." She said.

"Yep, it works." Nuckal said before handing the can to Skel-pid.

"By Samukai's orders, you must head down and affect any person you come across and spray them with that love potion." Kruncha said.

"As you wish, Kruncha." Skel-pid replied before turning immediately disappearing.

———

Several minutes later, in the hallway at Ninjago Academy, the bell had just rung as the students start leaving their classrooms. "Hey, anyone up for a coffee?" Jay asked.

"Yeah, I'll come." Cole replied.

"Yeah, me too." LJ said as he puts his beanie back on.

"I have to get to my photography class early, so I'll see you later." Zane said before taking off down the hallway as Nya joined up with them.

"Hey, LJ." She said. "How did your first class turn out?"

"So-so." LJ replied. "I know I'm getting some tutoring, but it is a little hard."

"You'll get use to it, kiddo." Kai said before Skylor came up behind him.

"Hey, we need to talk about tonight." She said.

"Um, okay." They immediately head over to some lockers. "I'll see you guys later."

"I have someone in mind to ask." Nya said before taking off. "I'll see you around."

"Guess it's just us three." Jay said as they turn left into a room.

———

In the room was a cafeteria where Jay, Cole and LJ get in a line. As they wait, Cole puts his hands in his pockets and realises something. "Oh, I forgot my wallet." He said. "You guys get your coffee, I'll be right back." He immediately took off as LJ and Jay watch him leave.

———

In the hallway, Cole walks up to a set of lockers and came over to his before turning the safe lock on it as Skel-pid passed by, unbeknownst to him as to him and everyone around, she was invisible. "Oh, I just love it when I get to be invisible and play Cupid." She said as she comes up to Nya, who is heading over to a young man with blonde hair, wearing a brown buttoned up short sleeved shirt, blue jeans and black flip flops, leaning against the wall around the corner.

"Hey, Chuck." She said as she came up to him.

"Nya, how's it hanging?" He asked. "Found some dude for the dance yet?"

"No, so I was wondering if you'd like to come to the Winter Dance with me."

"Okay then. That's rad."

"Of course, so-" Nya was cut off when Skel-Pid's potion spray soon hits her she looks to see Cole, who grabs his wallet and closes his locker. "Why, hello, Cole."

"Uh, Nya?" He asked. "What is going on?"

"Did I tell you how much I love your muscles?" Cole looks up at Chuck and shrugs.

"I don't know what happened." He mouthed and Chuck nods, shocked.

"Come on, why don't you buy me a coffee?" Nya takes his wallet.

"Nya, that's my wallet. Give it back."

"Come and get it." She moves off and Cole chases after her.

"Nya, give me back my wallet!"

———

Further down the hallway, Kai is leaning against the wall as he was talking with Skylor. "Maybe I should groom my hair to the side like-" He was cut off when Skel-Pid soon sprayed him, causing him to turn and see Seliel. "Oh, Seliel." He comes up to her, shocking Skylor. "Where have you been all my life?"

"Uh, are you okay, Kai?" Seliel asked before Skel-Pid soon sprayed Skylor, causing her to turn and see LJ, who holds a cup of iced coffee.

"Montgomery, you look so handsome." She said, coming up to him.

"Uh, Skylor, what's with you?" He asked before turning to Kai. "Kai, what's going on?"

"I'm beginning to fall in love with her." Kai replied before grabbing Seliel's hands and Skylor pushed LJ to the lockers, making him drop his coffee and it spills on the ground.

———

In a classroom, a middle aged man was by a desk as Zane was arranging some pictures before a middle aged woman comes in. "Sorry, sir." She said. "I'm looking for Principal Brown."

Skel-pid soon appeared next to her and giggled. "Time for an old-fashioned crush on the teacher." She sprays her potion at her and disappeared before the woman smiled.

"Oh, my stars." The woman soon came up to him as the students and Zane look on, confused. "Did anyone ever tell you that you have beautiful eyes?"

"I beg your pardon?" The teacher asked.

"Sir, I know this is sudden but will you go to the Winter Dance with me?"

"Really?"

———

In the principal's office at Darkley's, Samukai looks through the telescope to see the Rangers at Beach Park with Nya moving at Cole, who backs away and Kai moving his head side to side. "Skel-pid got the Red and Maroon Rangers." He said. "They'll be most vulnerable." He then turned to Kruncha and Nuckal. "Grab some Skulkins and come with me. It's time the Emerald Ranger knows who's in charge now." He soon walked out as they both follow him.

———

At Beach Park, Jay, Zane and LJ look on as Kai had his hands together and smiling while Nya runs after Cole, who backs away. "Too strange." LJ said.

"Hey, you guys notice anything weird in school today?" Jay asked Zane.

"Definitely." He replied as they watch Cole trying to step away from Nya, who moves closer.

"Well, if you call falling in love weird, then...colour me guilty." Kai said.

"Maybe we should talk to Master Wu?" Zane asked.

"Yeah." Jay, Cole and LJ replied.

"Let's go." LJ said before they prepare to move. But as they prepared to move, Samukai, Kruncha and Nuckal soon appear with some Skulkins. "Ahh, great. The lame Halloween dress-ups."

"Very funny, Emerald Ranger." Samukai replied. "Oh, by the way, you don't need to worry about dear daddy now."

"What?"

"He's dead." This gets LJ to become shocked. "I killed him. He was of no use to me anymore."

"No!" He immediately raised his left arm. "Spinjitzu!" He kneels down as he moved his left arm close to his right shoulder as his right hand touch the Emerald Spinjitzu Watch. "Emerald Power!"

———

LJ jumps in the air as he held his arms out. "Ninjago!" He starts spinning around as a green tornado soon appeared and engulfed him. It soon dispersed revealing LJ, in his Ranger suit, as he lands, left leg out while the right knee was bent, left arm spread out to the side and right arm in front of him. Green wind soon engulfed his head, turning into his green helmet.

———

LJ got out his sword and charged at the Skulkins as they did so too. "Let's get in it as well." Zane said.

"Oh, I have to protect Cole." Nya said.

"And I have to protect Seliel." Kai replied as they raise their left arms.

"Spinjitzu!" They all said, moving their right thumbs to their Spinjitzu Watches.

———

The Rangers move their left hands by their right shoulders as they move their right elbows back. "Ninjago!" They start spinning as their assigned coloured tornadoes soon appear and engulf them. They soon disperse revealing the Rangers, in their Ranger suits. They were on their right knees with their right arms spread out and their left arms in front of their right knees before they look up as their assigned coloured winds soon engulf each of their heads, turning into their assigned coloured helmets.

———

The Rangers charge at the Skulkin as Kruncha and Nuckal came at them as well. Kai charged at Kruncha as he soon went to punch Kai, but he moved to the side and spun before turning back and lifted his leg high, kicking him back. Kai soon spun again before holding the back of his hand out, hitting Kruncha at the side and knocking him down. Jay raised an arm to block a Skulkin's punch before moving his arm to another, punching it and jumped in the air, kicking both of them and they come apart as Jay soon landed, spun back, landing on his hands, moving his legs down to kick a Skulkin behind him and straightened up, knocking another Skulkin down. Zane pushes Nuckal back before turning around, jumped and raised a leg, kicking him and knocking him back before Zane soon landed, fell back, landing on his hands and used both feet, knocking Nuckal down before getting back up. Nya moves over to Cole as he had just punched a Skulkin and it came apart. "May I have this dance?" She asked.

"Uh, what?" He asked.

"Great!" She soon made Cole place on hand on her waist before she took his other hand while putting her other hand on his shoulder and they start moving about.

"Nya! What are you doing?!" They move over to Skulkin while dancing before they both raise a leg and kick it, knocking it down and it comes apart. They soon spun around before Nya makes Cole raise his arm with her hand in his and she starts spinning around, raising a leg, kicking three Skulkins down and they come apart while she lowered her leg before forcing Cole to put his hand on her waist again and placed her hand on his shoulder. They then move over to a group of Skulkins in a line. Nya then tilted backwards and lets go of Cole's hand before he sees the Skulkin in front about to grab her. "Nya, look out!" He immediately punches the Skulkin, knocking it back into the group and they all fall down, coming apart before Nya straightened up and took his hand.

LJ charges at Samukai while holding his sword before raising it to strike him, but Samukai quickly got out his own and blocked it. He moved back and goes to strike LJ, but he immediately lowered his sword to block it before forcing it up and prepared to strike again, but Samukai quickly blocked it, raised a foot and kicked LJ, causing him to backflip and raised his sword to block Samukai's strike and they clash blades. LJ looked at Samukai as he tried to force him down. "Why would you kill my father?" LJ asked as he tried his best to stop himself from being lowered from the force. "What did he do to you?"

"Your father took over my role as leader of the Skulkin and I was forced to be his servant." Samukai replied. "Well, no more. And once I'm done with you, you can send him my regards in the Departed Realm."

LJ immediately screamed before forcing himself up and knocking Samukai away before getting out his yoyo which immediately turned into the chain whip and he swings it at him. The chain wraps around the blade before LJ pulled the whip back, forcing Samukai to let it go as LJ soon jumped in the air and kicked him, knocking him back as Kruncha and Nuckal came up behind him. "You can send them yourself!"

"It's not over, Emerald Ranger. I'll be back." He gets out a vial and tosses it down to the ground, creating a smokescreen. The moment it dispersed, they weren't there anymore.

"Power down." The Rangers demorph as Nya leans on Cole, who tries to back away and LJ knelt down, in sadness. "Father."

———

In the study at the monastery, the Rangers were facing Wu, except for Kai, Cole and Nya. "Master, something is wrong with Kai and Nya." LJ said as they see Cole moving away from Nya and Kai moving his head side to side. "They're, uh, not themselves."

"It looks like they're under the spell of a love potion." Wu replied.

"Thank goodness." Cole said, hiding behind Zane.

"Nya Lily Brookstone." Nya said to herself, imagining a future between her and Cole, shocking him. She soon pouted before thinking something else. "Nya Smith-Brookstone."

"Master." Cole said, in a demanding and worried tone.

Smoke soon filled the room. "The Spirit Smoke is showing us a vision." They see Skel-pid coming up to a couple and sprays her potion and they suddenly hug.

"A skeleton with wings?" Jay asked. "Now I've seen everything."

"Well, whatever it is, we need Kai and Nya back to normal quickly." LJ replied. "Uncle, is there a way to reverse the potion?"

"I'm not sure." Wu said. "However, it may be possible that the effects may wear off Kai and Nya. Until then, keep them under close watch."

"Uh, we will, master."

"Junior, is there something else on your mind?"

"Uh, I'll tell you later."

———

In the principal's office at Darkley's, Samukai growled before hitting the desk, in anger. "I cannot believe that even after being affected by the potion, the Rangers were able to defeat us." He said.

"It's probably because love is powerful." Nuckal replied.

"Is that what you think?"

"I second that." Kruncha said. "I bet it was a blast for them as well."

"I think they had enough fun. Go create an antidote for the love potion."

"Yes, my lord." Kruncha walks away before turning to Nuckal. "I guess the party's over."

"Good thing too." Nuckal said.

———

At Ninjago Academy, Geoffrey comes up to the woman who asked Zane's teacher out. "Gwen, what is the meaning of this?" He asked. "Mr. Reagie told me you asked him out when I'm your boyfriend."

"Probably because you're such a loser." She replied as Mr. Reagie came up to them and she heads over to him. "Oh, Mr. Reagie."

"Help me." Mr. Reagie said to Geoffrey.

"All right, who's next?" Skel-pid asked herself as she moved along, not being seen by anyone before a Skulkin with black wings with the feathers slowly coming off appeared behind her, causing her to turn to it. "Matchbreak-eton, what are you doing here?"

"Your Cupid wings have been clipped." It said. "Return to the boarding school."

"Drat. Just when I was getting the hang of it. You should have seen some of the matches I made." Skel-pid soon disappeared.

Matchbreak-eton comes over to Gwen and Mr. Reagie before spraying Gwen with the antidote and she suddenly looked at Mr. Reagie. "Oh, Mr. Reagie, what was I doing?" She asked before moving over to Geoffrey. "I don't know how it happened."

"It doesn't matter." Geoffrey replied before hugging her.

Matchbreak-eton soon came over to Kai and Seliel. "If I could get you anything, Sel, I'll bring you the moon, the stars-"

"Not today." Matchbreak-eton said, cutting Kai off before spraying the antidote on him, causing him to become confused while Matchbreak-eton walked away.

"Uh, what was I saying?"

"Uh, nothing." Seliel said as Kai backed away, feeling awkward.

"Well, it was nice talking to you. Bye." He starts to walk away, a little dazed, as Seliel sees him leave.

Matchbreak-eton soon came over to the lockers where LJ and Skylor were. Skylor has LJ's back against the lockers. "Oh, Montgomery, how could I ever go to that Winter Dance with that loser Kai?" She asked before putting her hand on his nose and moved it a little.

"Uh, I don't know." He replied before Matchbreak-eton sprayed the antidote on Skylor.

Skylor then backed away, in shock. "Montgomery? What were you doing to me?"

"Me? You were touching my nose." Skylor soon raised her hand and smacked LJ in the face. "Ow!"

She soon walked away. "What a liar."

"Hey, you okay, LJ?" Kai asked coming up to him as he felt a bruise on his cheek.

"Yeah." He replied. "I guess it wore off."

"What wore off?"

———

Further down, Nya had her fingers laced in Cole's. "Ah, Cole, I know you like me." Nya said, coming close to him. "We should be together forever."

"I don't think so, Maroon Ranger." Matchbreak-eton said before spraying the antidote on her.

Nya then backed away, shocked. "Cole?" She soon saw Jay and came up to him. "What was I doing with Cole?"

"Nya, you're okay." He said, touching her hands as Kai, Zane and LJ came up to them as well as Cole.

"Not until I know what's going on."

"It's a long story."

———

Outside Darkley's Boarding School, Matchbreak-eton comes up to Samukai and Skel-pid. "All the humans have been cured." It said.

"Good." Samukai replied. "Now we can deal with those loveless Rangers."

———

At Ninjago Academy, Kai, Jay, Zane, Cole, Nya and LJ walk along the hallway before stopping. "Well, it looks like the spell's finally been broken." Zane said.

"Thank goodness." LJ replied.

"You're telling me." Nya said.

"Yeah, this is the weirdest stunt Samukai ever pulled." Kai replied before they chuckle.

Beeping was soon heard before LJ answered his Spinjitzu Watch. "You got LJ, uncle." He said.

"Rangers, Skel-pid and Matchbreak-eton are on different sides of the city." Wu replied through the Spinjitzu Watch. "You must stop them."

"We're on it." LJ turns to Jay, Zane and Cole. "Cole, you, Jay and Zane deal with Skel-pid. Kai, Nya and I will take care of Matchbreak-eton."

"Right." They all said.

"Let's go." LJ, Kai and Nya continue on while Jay, Cole and Zane turn back and head back down the path they took.

———

On the streets of Ninjago, Skel-pid, who is big, moves about as civilians are running away before Jay, Zane and Cole, all morphed and on their Spinjitzu Bikes, stop in the middle of the street and look up. "Time for the L.I.E. Megazord." Cole said before they press their Spinjitzu Watches.

———

The Blue Octopus Zord moves its tentacles downward as four of them combine into a leg while the other four did the same with the body and head moving down. The Black Bear Zord comes on top of the Blue Octopus Zord as its legs retract into the body and stands upright. The White Tiger Zord comes up behind the Black Bear Zord as its bottom legs combine with the top legs and connects with the back of the Black Bear Zord before the head covers Black Bear Zord's and opens up, revealing its face before poising. In the cockpit, Jay, Cole and Zane look on to face Skel-pid.

———

Outside, Skel-pid turns to them. "Ah, did you enjoy hanging around the Maroon Ranger?" She asked.

———

In the cockpit, Cole closed both hands into fists. "You should never mess with love." He presses a nearby button.

———

Outside, the panel on the front of the Megazord opens up, revealing the Rock Mallet. The L.I.E. Megazord charged at Skel-pid, who quickly turned to the side as it tried to strike her with the mallet before kicking it from behind, knocking it down onto the ground.

———

In the cockpit, Jay, Cole and Zane shook from the attack. "We gotta get back up!" Zane yelled as he pushed a few buttons.

———

Outside, the L.I.E. Megazord quickly rolled to the side as Skel-pid tried to punch it, but missed as it soon raised a leg, kicking her back before immediately getting back up and swung the mallet. "And I thought a broken heart could break your team spirit!" Skel-pid said.

———

In the cockpit, Jay, Cole and Zane look at the monitor. "Our team spirit is stronger than heartbreak." Cole replied.

———

By the main park, Matchbreak-eton turns to see Kai, Nya and LJ, all morphed, stopping in front of him. "We're not gonna let you break people's hearts!" Kai yelled.

"Au contraire, Red Ranger." Matchbreak-eton replied. "Who do you think cured you of the love potion?"

Nya soon gasped. "It was you." She said. "Good thing I didn't end up asking Cole to the dance."

"Nya, concentrate." LJ replied.

"Right. Let's get it." She gets out her spear as Kai and LJ got out their swords and charge at Matchbreak-eton. Nya moves her spear forward to stab Matchbreak-eton, but it moved to the side to make her miss before pushing her back as Kai swung his swords at it and struck it from behind, but it barely fazes him before kicking him, sending him flying to the ground.

LJ somersaults in the air and moved to strike Matchbreak-eton, but it grabbed hold of his sword and kicks him back, making him let go of his sword. "Such an honour to wield your father's sword." It said as threw it up to grab the handle and swung it before charging at him.

"You'll won't be holding it for long!" LJ replied before he quickly turned to the side, making Matchbreak-eton miss before turning back and kicked it, forcing it back, but it soon flapped its wings and flies into the air. It soon flapped its wings very fast, causing Kai, Nya and LJ to fly back and land on the ground.

"You'll need to learn how to fly if you want to get me."

———

Back by the main streets, the L.I.E. Megazord immediately moved to the side as Skel-pod tried to strike, but it soon struck her, knocking her back.

———

In the cockpit, Cole presses a button. "Rock Mallet, final strike!" He yelled.

———

Outside, the Megazord holds the Rock Mallet with two hands before raising it and slammed it into the ground. The ground starts to crack before it comes up to Skel-pid and struck her, sending her into the air where she soon explodes.

———

In the cockpit, Cole dusts off his hands. "A spinning victory."

———

Back at the park, Kai and Nya swing their weapons at Matchbreak-eton as it flies in the air, still holding LJ's sword before he soon got out his yoyo, which turns into his chain whip, moved his arm back to swing it and moved it forward, wrapping the whip around Matchbreak-eton's arm holding his sword before pulling it back, forcing Matchbreak-eton downward before he grabs hold of his sword, turned around and raised it up, striking its right wing and it comes down. "My wing!" It yelled.

"Kai, Nya, you're up." LJ said.

"Acquire Cannon!" Kai and Nya said.

———

Nya holds out her spear while Kai places his swords on top, creating the Aquire Cannon and held it on each side of their shoulder. "Water Power!" Nya said as she places her hand on top of the cannon and aimed at Domally Dragon. "Ready? Fire!"

———

The cannon fired its shot. The shot hits Matchbreak-eton, causing it to scream as it fell back and explodes. "A spinning victory."

———

In the principal's office at Darkley's, Samukai growled before kicking the plant, opening the trapdoor by accident. "I should've never messed with love." He said as the trapdoor immediately closed.

"Yeah, Skel-pid broke my heart, if I had one." Kruncha replied as he came in. "I really do wonder if I can find the one for me."

"You're a skeleton, no woman would fall for you." Kruncha soon sighed.

———

In the study at the monastery, the Rangers, all demorphed, were sitting as LJ was thinking about something before Wu came in. "I'm glad to hear that Skel-pid and Matchbreak-eton are defeated." He said as he came into the room. "The one thing that Samukai shouldn't mess with is love."

"I agree to that." Kai replied.

"I say so, too." Nya said.

"Now, Junior, what is on your mind?" Wu asked, coming up to LJ. "You seemed a little down when you came here before."

LJ soon sighed. "Lloyd's dead." He replied, shocking Wu.

"What?"

"Samukai told me he killed him because he was useless without the Mega Weapon. So, in other words, I'm indirectly responsible for his death."

"Oh, LJ, I'm sorry to hear." Wu places a hand on LJ's shoulder before lowering his head too, sad at his brother's death. "But we cannot let his death cloud our judgement. We will get Samukai one day, but we must focus on the present. Maybe you should go to the Winter Dance."

"You think so? After all this news?"

"Grief takes many shapes and forms. Say the dancing will be for your father."

"Very well then." Wu soon got out a big roll of cash. "What's this?"

"You should get yourselves some appropriate clothes for the dance. I know it's not much, but it's something."

LJ soon took it. "Thanks." They soon got up and walked out as Wu turned to a nearby photo of his younger self and Lloyd, in their Ranger suits while their helmets were in their arms and frowned.

"I'm sorry, brother."

———

The following evening, in the school gym, many students, including LJ and Aseey, Kai and Skylor, Nya and Chuck, and Zane, who is dancing with a blonde haired girl, were on the dance floor with a band on a stage. "#You said you love me, But you left me the next day, Was it all an act?, Were you just nervous?, Or was it to embarrass me?#" A teenaged girl sang.

LJ, wearing a grey suit, green shirt, white bowtie and brown dress shoes, was a little slow on dancing with Aseey. "Are you okay?" She asked. "Are you sure you want to be here, after what just happened to your father?"

"Master Wu told me that grief takes many shapes and forms." He replied. "Look, I know this is not much of a first date, but I like it." Aseey soon giggled. "What did I say?"

"That's cute of you to say that... Montgomery." LJ soon smiled before raising his right arm up to let her spin while she still held it.

Nearby, Zane, wearing a grey vest, white shirt, black suit pants, light blue bowtie and black dress shoes, spins the girl he was dancing while close by, Kai, wearing a brown suit jacket, red shirt, black suit pants, maroon tie and brown loafers, and Skylor, wearing an orange dress, white cardigan and orange heels, were dancing regularly. "Are you sure you're okay?" He asked.

"Yeah." Skylor replied. "I'm not sure what happened to me, suddenly coming up to Montgomery like that."

"Well, from what I heard, the Power Rangers took down the monster responsible." He lies about his involvement.

"Good to hear." She then moved her head, close to his shoulder, causing him to blush.

By some tables, Cole, wearing a black suit jacket, white shirt, blue jeans, orange tie and black dress shoes, just watched on before a slice of cake on a paper plate was soon held out to him. "Cake?" The person asked with a feminine voice.

Cole turned and saw it was Seliel, in a dark blue dress and blue flats, who was also holding a slice of cake on another plate. "Alright, then." He replied, taking it and takes a bite of it. "Listen, um, I know I was a bit rude to you."

"You were often rude, Cole."

"I know. The thing is, it's to hide what I feel about you."

"Really?"

"Uh, yeah."

"Well, prove it. Come dance with me." Cole and Seliel soon place their plates down, hold each other's hands and came onto the dance floor to dance with the others.

They pass by Nya, who is wearing a red kimono and white sneakers, and Chuck, who wears a brown short sleeved shirt, black jeans, white tie and black work boots, who dance as well before Nya noticed Jay sitting by another table, frowning, with his feet on the table. He was wearing a black suit, white shirt, blue cummerbund, orange scarf and black and white cleats, playing around with his undone blue bowtie. "Chuck." She said as they turn to him while still dancing. "Just look at him. All alone."

"Wonder what happened to Paige." He replied before they stop.

"You don't mind if I-"

"No, go ahead." Nya walks away from Chuck, who heads over to another table with snacks on it.

Jay sighed before Nya came up to him. "Hey. So, what happened with Janice?"

"She saw me with you." He said while frowning. "When you asked me what was going on after Skel-pid's potion was reversed. She dumped me and went with someone else."

"Well, how about you dance with me?"

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, even Chuck approved. I don't know how to say this, but your eyes are a nice shade of blue."

Jay soon smiled. "Thanks."

"Come on." She holds out her hand and he takes it while getting off the chair and they move to the dance floor to dance with the others.

"#Love, Love, Love is a light, And hate is so dark#" The girl on the stage sang as Jay and Nya danced while smiling at each other. "#You said you love me, But you left me the next day, Was it all an act...?#"

(A/N: Love is a Light is an orignal song which can be veiwed on my deviantART account: TEK1996)
