> 10.1.

—COLE: "THE FIRE TEMPLE."

Nya was using the Falcon as means of communication.

—Nya: "The volcano seems to be on the verge of eruption, guys. All recent indicators tell me that this place is becoming increasingly fragile. Even the smallest rupture can make the whole thing go off."

—Wu: "Then we must not use our weapons."

Everyone but Kai gives their weapons in.

—Nya: "Kai."

Kai sighs before giving in his sword.

—Kai: "Yeah, yeah. No Fire Sword. But only because I wouldn't want anything to prevent us from getting that Fangblade."

—Garmadon/Me: "Or my son./or Lloyd."

—Wu: "There. The Serpentine must be inside the inner core. From here on out, we travel by shadows."

—Garmadon: "It's the only way I know how."

[...]

—Jay: "There's Lloyd."

We see Lloyd being held in a cage. Garmadon gasps.

—Garmadon: "Son."

—Me: "We will save him."

We see Pythor finding the blade. Once he had it, he was us from the reflection.

—Pythor: "Ninja? Attack!"

—Wu: "Light as a leaf. Attack like there is no tomorrow."

We all begin to fight.

—Zane: "They're making the volcano unstable."

—Jay: "Any minute, this place is gonna blow. We have to get out of here."

—Garmadon: "Not without my son."

—Lloyd: "Dad!"

—Pythor: "Argh, lose the boy!"

The cage is then dropped near some rising levels of lava.

—Lloyd: "Dad!"

—Garmadon: "Lloyd!"

Garmadon saves Lloyd as the bottom of the cage melts.

—Lloyd: "Dad.

—Garmadon: "Son."

They embrace each other. I sigh in relief. Kai, then, rushes past them.

—Kai: "The Fangblade's mine!"

—Cole: "Come back. It's too dangerous. The whole place is going to explode!"

—Kai: "Then I better be quick!"

He throws the Sword of Fire and knocks the Fangblade out of Pythor's grasp and impales both of them into wall and Pythor snarls angrily at Kai while he runs with determination. Pythor tries to pull the Sword of Fire and the Fangblade out but no effort.

—Skales: "Hurry, we must leave here at once!"

They do so before the entrance is blocked. Kai leaps down to the Fangblade.

—Me: "Kai! Return immediately!"

I angrily yell.

—Jay: "Leave it, Kai! It's not worth your life!"

—Kai: "Not without that Fangblade!"

—Lloyd: "But what about Kai? Kai!"

Suddenly, the ground breaks and Lloyd falls.

—Garmadon: "NOOO!!! Lloyd!"

—Lloyd: "Dad! Dad! I'm sinking!"

—Wu: "We have to get out of here, or else none of us will get out of here!"

—Garmadon: "But my son!"

—Me: "I'll go after Lloyd."

I jump down to where Lloyd was.

—Cole and Jay: "[Y/n]!!"

Lloyd looks up at me with teary eyes.

—Lloyd: "[Y-Y/n]..."

I look around in panic. The crater was too high up for me to leap out in time and Kai was too centered on the blade.

I click my tongue and look down at Lloyd.

—Me: "It's alright. Just close your eyes. I will protect you."

Lloyd gasps slightly but obeys and shuts his eyes tightly.

I use my body to cover Lloyd.

[...]

—Garmadon: "LLOYD! LLOYD!"

The volcano erupted. They all gasp.

—Nya: "Kai!"

—Garmadon: "Son."

—Jay: "[Y-Y/n]..."

Kai leaps out of the volcano with me in his arms while I was protectively holding Lloyd.

—Jay: "It's Kai! He's found his True Potential!"

[...]

—Lloyd: "Dad? Is it really you?"

—Garmadon: "It is, son."

—Lloyd: "Dad? Why do you have four arms?"

—Cole: "He's gonna be okay."

Everyone cheers.

—Garmadon: "Thank you, Kai."

—Zane: "But how did you survive? How did you discover the key to unlocking your powers?"

—Kai: "I knew when I had to make a choice. I wanted the Fangblade so badly, to prove I was good enough to become the Green Ninja. But then I figured it out. All of my training to become the best ninja wasn't in preparation to become the Green Ninja. It was... to protect him."

...

—Lloyd: "What? What is everybody looking at me for?"

—Nya: "That means..."

The weapons are then brought forth. As everyone expected, they were shining.

—Wu: "Lloyd is the Green Ninja. I had thought it would be one of you, but it was him the whole time. It all makes sense. Not only have you four been chosen to protect the Golden Weapons, but also to protect the Chosen One."

—Garmadon: "That means..."

—Wu: "The battle lines have been drawn, brother. Sadly, our family has only become more divided. Brother versus brother, and now, son versus father"

...

—Jay: "Hehe, this is heavy and all, but whatever happened to the Fangblade!?"
