(In his throne room, the Skull Sorcerer looks into the Pit.)

Hazza D'ur: Nothing comes without sacrifice.

Skull Sorcerer: My subjects will want to know what happened to their princess. (He transforms back into Vangelis.) Luckily, I have the perfect scapegoat. Or should I say,  their two dragons. Guards! There's been a terrible accident. The Princess fell into the Pit.

Hailmar: How?

Vangelis: It was that - that creature! It turned on her and attacked her. I want it locked up!

Hailmar: The Princess' dragon and Visor's dragon? Chompy? Reese's?

Vangelis: You heard me. I want both the beast locked up! Now!

(In the Pit, Cole, Lilly, & Wu scream as they fall.)

Cole: Master Wu! Lilly! Are you okay?

Wu: What?

Lilly: He said, are you okay?

Wu: For the moment, yes!

Cole: Speed up! I can't hear you!

Wu: I'm falling as fast as I can! You have to slow down!

Cole: How?

Wu: Use your Elemental Powers!

Cole: What?

Wu: Your Elemental Powers! Use your powers to slow down! (He flaps his arms.)

Cole: You really think that would work?

Wu: Yes!

Cole: Okay, here goes nothing. (He flaps his arms. Wu raises an eyebrow.) It's not working!

Vania: Master Wu! Cole! Lilly!

Wu: Princess Vania?

Vania: I'm coming! But you have to slow down!

Wu: How?

Vania: Use your arms, like this! (She flaps her arms.)

Wu: (He does so, then stops.) Oh, what am I doing? It's no use. That won't work!

Cole: I've got an idea. (He grabs a vine, but it breaks.) I need a bigger vine. (He grabs another, but it breaks when he slams into the walls.)

Lilly: Watch out!

Wu: Cole! Stop playing with those twigs and stay with me and Lilly! (They join hands.)

Cole: Gotcha.

Vania: Hang on. I'm almost there!

Lilly: Are you sure those wings will hold all four of us?

Vania: No, but it's our only chance! Now reach! (Cole, Lilly and Wu grab her.) Gotcha! (The wings break.) Oh no!

Cole & Lilly: Oh, I was afraid of that!

Vania: What do we do?

Wu: Firstly, allow me to say you are handling this situation remarkably well.

Vania: Thank you, but I'm with you, Lilly and Cole and I'm sure you've been in way worse situations.

Wu: Uh...

Cole: Uh, nope.

Vania: But I'm sure you have a plan.

Cole: Not me!

Wu: Alas, no.

Lilly: I will I do but I don't. (Vania screams as the trio fall onto a sticky spiderweb.)
