With their inner disputes sorted out, or at least put on hold, Man In Blue returned to his allies.
"Alright, slight change of plans. We need to locate all the shards and reassemble the prism. There's a force at work more dangerous than anything this island has ever faced before. So if you have any, or know of where we can find any, I need to know now. KNUCKLEHEADS, Helado gang, you lot know anything?"
From the edge of the clearing, Icemeister spoke up. "Uh, e-excuse me! I believe we can help you locate a few sh-sh-shards!"
"How so?" Man In Blue asked.
"Well, Kendarboo's machine's can, y'know, locate particularly powerful sources of magic, like uh, your shards, but if we had a shard to, er, power it, we could use it to, like, ummm, scan specifically for shards."
"No, not a chance. We can't separate the shards, we risk the Black Faction or the Prismatic Knight or some other group we don't even know about swooping in."
"Give us the shard, son." Kendarboo said, his voice becoming far more stern.
"Again with the shard thing? Look, all you lot have done since you arrived is try to get one of the shards. What do you want it for anyway?"
"Just what Icemeister said! Calm down! Kendarboo snapped. "Don't you trust me?"
"Not at all, honestly."
"Well, we tried the easy way. Duplicators, attack!"
From the bushes stepped a man, then another, then another. A whole group of people, clumsily running to surround Man In Blue.
Behind a shrub, the original Duplicator sat with Kniitwiit, Silent Night, and The Cushion.
"Is this really necessary?" Kniitwiit asked. "These people don't seem so bad..."
"We have to do our duty to serve the Bronze Mage." Silent Night whispered. "Now shut up."
"Oh, you shut up. We know about your secret special training with that "blood alchemist". You're too good for us now, aren't you?"
"Quiet! I need to focus!" Snapped the original Duplicator.
Ten of the Duplicator clones lurched towards Man In Blue, preparing to try and steal a shard...
