"What is this place?" Seven asked

"My garage. It's protected by a Level 999 Stealth Barrier. Were you followed?" Scott asked

"Who would be following me?" Seven asked

"Those Red Visor guys," Jay explained

"Unagami's been trying to find this place for years," Scott explained

"No, I wasn't followed," Seven said she and Scott narrowed their eyes at each other. Finally, Scott relented and said, "Pull your car in before someone sees it."

They entered the garage together to talk for a few minutes.

"Unagami is actually a man named Milton Dyer, a game programmer. He built Prime Empire. He's using it to trap players inside the game," Lloyd explained

"The only way to stop Dyer is to get the three Key-Tana," Nya said

"To do that, we need your help. We need to win this race," Jay cried.

"You said I was programmed to lose. But I could break my programming." Seven said and Lloyd nodded, Seven said nervously, "What if you're wrong?"

"I'm not. You can win. You just have to believe in yourself," Lloyd insisted.

"What do you say? Will you help us?" Nya asked

"I'll do it." Seven said

Misty smiled but then jumped as an alarm started beeping. "Something tripped the motion sensors," Scott said, then checked the camera, and saw the Red Visors heading toward the garage. "Red Visors!" He warned

"What do we do?" Nya asked

"I'll hold them off. You guys get to the racetrack and win that Key-Tana." Lloyd said

"Are you crazy? We're not leaving you here." Kai shouted

"Yeah, no way!" Cole added

"We're absolutely not doing that," Misty added shaking her head.

"We're out of options! The Speedway starts in five minutes and there are too many to-" Lloyd was cut off by Scott who said. "I'll hold them off. I've been hiding in this garage for 30 years, playing it safe. Time to try out that hero thing." And he smiled

"You only have one life left, Scott," Kai warned him.

"I know, and I want it to count for something. Just promise me you'll beat this game. Find Unagami, and you make him set this right." He pulled up his inventory and took out his gun.

"I promise," Jay said

They heard a crash the Red Visors had started shooting the garage.

"Go!" Scott shouted

Kai, Jay, Nya, and Racer Seven got in their respective vehicles. Lloyd grabbed Misty's hand before she could hesitate and pulled her into his vehicle. He jumped on and pulled her on behind him and said, "Keep your head down, and hold on to me," Lloyd said.

"Obviously," Misty muttered and she rolled her eyes and wrapped her arms around Lloyd's waist. A ghost of a smile flickered across Lloyd's lips before his mask went up.

Cole hesitated "Uh..." He hopped on the back of Kai's Jet they raised their masks and got ready.

Scott opened the garage's doors and the Red Visors stopped shooting. "Game on, Unagami," Scott said and he exited the garage and started shooting the Red Visors, then took cover and sent a toy car at them. The toy car exploded destroying the Red Visors. More Red Visors emerged and headed toward Scott.
