=====================================================================================================

Cole is facing off against Krag. His roar can be heard from the Great Lake.

Cole: That's right, Krag! I'm sure you've terrorized all kinds of travelers, but you've never faced a ninja before!

He Leaps at Krag and Spinjitzus.

Cole: Ninja, go!

He knocks him back against a ledge.

Cole: I came here to find the Traveler's Tree ! No overgrown ape is gonna stop me!

Krag rips off a branch and smacks Cole with it. Cole crashes into a rock and the snow falls down on him. Krag growls in victory. Nya and Jay are climbing the mountain, looking for Cole and Krag. They hear Krag's victory roar.

Nya: That has to be the creature those villagers call Krag.

Jay: Yeah, that's a bad sound. Every time I hear a sound like that, it's big with lots of teeth!

Nya: And I'm betting Cole got himself into some serious trouble. This is partly our fault, you know.

Jay: Oh! I had no idea how sensitive he was about losing the Traveler's Tea!

Nya: Even if he was sensitive, he shouldn't have run off by himself!

Jay: Oh, I hope we aren't too late! Why didn't we bring weapons?!

Cole wakes up to find himself in an unknown cave.

Cole: Where?

He looks around and stops when he sees a big footprint.

Cole: Oh, no!

He continues down the cave until he hears Krag's sound and hides.

Cole: Ahh!

Krag approaches the last spot Cole was, only to find he has disappeared. Cole leaps at Krag.

Cole: Ha-yah!

Krag charges at him. Cole runs away, but slips, bonking into an icicle. As Krag approaches him, he uses his Earth Punch to punch the floor and a stalactite falls down on Krag, trapping him. Cole turns and runs up the stairs, and finds himself in a bedroom.

Cole: What? Bunk beds? How many Krags are there? Huh. I guess just one.

He walks over to some flowers and sees burial mounds.

Cole: Burial mounds? He's the last one.

He hears Krag's groaning and tries to walk away.

Cole: Ugh. Don't do it. Just keep going. That's the smart thing. Keep going.

He stops and runs back.

Cole: Oh, darn it, Cole!

Krag struggles to get the icicle off him. Cole sees the branch and picks a berry off it. Krag Points to his mouth and makes chewing sounds.

Krag: Mmm. Om, om.

Cole: Food? You brought these for me? To eat?

Krag: (Nods.) Yeh.

Cole Winces and pretends to eat it, putting it in his back pouch.

Cole: You didn't always live alone in this cave, did you? There were more of your kind.
