Chapter 56: Infamous
Inside a dark chamber with a lamp in the middle, the Ninja clash with several hostile Skulkin.
Jay whips out nunchucks, fighting the skeleton who is dodging his attacks. Jay knocks the skeleton away and four more skeletons drop from the ceiling.
"Ninja, go!" Kai shouts
Kai does Spinjitzu, defeating the skeletons. A skeleton is knocked down a ramp, under it is Zane stretching his arms. Skeletons sprint down the hall and Cole ghostly emerges from the wall so the skeletons run back only to find a punch from Zane crashing through a barrier of ice.
Kai and Jay come sliding down the ramp with excitement and all four ninja line up together facing the screen. Cole comes forward and pounds the floor tripping the skeletons into the wall. The ninja go into fighting stances. Samukai crashes through the wall and charges at them. A green light appears and the Green Ninja emerges. He lands and punches Samukai with green Energy.
"Do you have the golden scroll, Lloyd?" Kai asks
"I sure do, Kai! But I don't know what is says. Can anyone help me read it?" Lloyd questions
"We can! Because reading is the first step to every adventure. Go, reading, go!" All the ninja shout
"And... Cut! Brilliance plus perfection! Clean up, little fellas and make some headway here. That's a wrap!" Dareth says
Revealing the place to be a set and the Skulkin to be actors in costumes. Nya, arriving, is left confused on the sudden end of the movie.
"A wrap? I just got here. Dareth said—"
Dareth cut her off "Hey, hey! There's my boys! I knew you could Spinjitzu but that acting knocked me out" he then noticed Nya "Oh, hey, sweetheart. Mind sticking around for a segment to teach girls how to apply makeup?"
Nya looked to the back corner, angered "You're gonna need makeup when I rearrange your face!" She walks over to punch Dareth but Jay holds her back.
"Nya is one of us now, there's no reason she should be treated differently." Jay says turning to Dareth
"No Reason? You added a girl to the group. You know how much that hurts your image? You're a boy band, a hunk machine! " Dareth replies
"Uh, Aria's been in the group since she was 10," Kai points out "we've had a girl on our team."
"Oh yeah," Dareth says "where is she anyway?"
"I'm here!" Aria runs in with Reika behind her
"Sorry I'm late," Aria says "I missed it didn't I?"
"All you missed was Dareth saying we're "ruining the boy's image"" Nya replies spitefully
"Now now I didn't say that," Dareth defends nervously looking at Aria, he whispers to Kai "I didn't remember she was the princess."
"Uh, yeah," Kai responds out loud "speaking of that, Aria why did you wear that here?"
Aria looks down before quickly hiding behind Lloyd.
"Sorry," Aria apologizes "I was at the castle and forgot to change."
"It's alright," Lloyd smiles to her before pulling her out from behind him "you look great, beautiful."
"Well of course she does," Reika says placing her hands on her hips "my wife is the most beautiful girl in Ninjago."
"Right, my girlfriend is," Lloyd says glaring at Reika
"Look what I did," Aria mutters before looking at Dareth "What's wrong with girls?"
"Nothing dear" Lloyd replies "Our power comes from no one being more important than the other"
"Important? No. Irresistible... uh, debatable" Kai says then winks at fangirls in the doorway
Girls scream and try to run to him, but guards stop them.
"Kai," Aria looks at him disapprovingly
"Brother gross," Reika agrees
"I don't tell you how to do your business, don't tell me how to do mine. Remember how every time you save no one cared? Well now Dareth's in charge and Dareth says don't change the recipe. You boys are the face of the franchise, and now the face of teen idol!" Dareth whips out a magazine
The magazine has a big image of Lloyd on it, in the corner has Jay and Cole on each side of a heart with Nya in it. On the other side of Lloyd was an image of Aria.
"Whoa, Aria's in here." Jay points out
Lloyd opens the magazine and reads the page "Sensei Lloyd" Lloyd looks confused "but I'm only a Sensei-in-training"
"And what's this about me and Jay still fighting over Nya? That's old news." Cole says
"Who cares if it's real or not? Isn't this what you've always dreamed of? You're the hottest thing in Ninjago!" Dareth argues happily
Lloyd flips the page and quickly closes it while Aria looked embarrassed.
"What?" Reika takes it from him
"don't-"
"Woah you're hot!" Reika shouts
Aria covers her face in embarrassment while the ninja all crowd around Reika.
"I can see titties!" Jay shouts
Nya hits him over the head as Kai and Zane look away.
"Yeah that's the best part!" Reika says staring at the image more intently
"I'm so embarrassed," Aria blushes, hiding into Lloyd's chest "I didn't know they were gonna actually put that picture in a magazine."
"It's no big deal cuz," Cole says "just look, the magazine is flaunting how beautiful you are. They say the purple ninja is the most suitable person to be the next Empress."
"Yeah, it's great news you're mother is finally allowing you to be promoted as the princess," Nya agrees "it shows the city loves you as the purple ninja, and that they would support you in becoming the next ruler."
"If my step-sister doesn't win them over," Aria says before looking at Lloyd, who she noticed was staring at her chest "Lloyd!"
"Sorry," Lloyd blushes and looks away "..are they really that big?"
"Oh boy," Kai chuckles "Lloyd's going into that awkward phase."
"Should we tell sensei to have the talk ready?" Jay jokes
"What talk?" Lloyd looks confused
The ninja, including Aria and Reika, all look at him surprised.
"That's hilarious," Reika starts laughing out of nowhere "tater tot doesn't know what sex is."
"I do!" Lloyd shouts looking embarrassed
"He totally doesn't guys," Cole whispers to the boys
Dareth was just staring at them all confused.
"Uh, I have a question." Dareth says, the ninja all look at him "So.. Princess Aria and Lloyd are dating.. but the Princess is married to Reika?"
"No" "Yes." Lloyd and Reika reply at the same time
The two look at each other annoyed.
"It's complicated Dareth," Zane tells him
Dareth just nods "ohhh I see.. it's a secret then."
Nya and Aria look at each other and just shake their heads.

Aria sat with Zero in his office while he and Kaname, the captain of the royal guards, spoke about their new project. What project, Aria had no idea, she was just there to read some books Zero had.
On the tv, footage is shown of the ninja committing various crimes, with Lloyd robbing the bank, Zane sabotaging a roller-coaster and sending its riders crashing off of the rails, Cole destroying various roads, Jay robbing a painting of Master Chen from the Ninjago Museum of History, and so forth.
"...what" Aria looks at it confused
News reports interviews various associates of the Ninja and the Police Commissioner is calling for their arrest.
"Zero look at this!" Aria called for him immediately
Zero rushed over to look at the tv "This doesn't make any sense?"
"Oh no," Aria looks concerned "something tells me I'm about to get busy."
