In the city, Kai and Cole race through the streets. A Dragonide picks up Kai's vehicle.

Cole: I didn't know your vehicle could fly!

Kai: It can't! It can't!

The two scream as they crash. Kai wakes up to find himself upside down.

Kai: What? Where am I? Cole? Cole! Cole, can you hear me?

He frees himself.

Kai: Ouch!

He attempts to free Cole.

Pythor: (To the Vengestone Guards) You six go that way! The rest of you, that way! Search the streets!

Kai: I know that voice.

Pythor: Find the ninja! The Crystal King commands it!

Kai: Come on. Come on! Wake up, Cole, buddy. Not a good time for a beauty nap!

He lifts the cockpit.

Cole: What happened? Did we win?

Kai: Not exactly.

He picks Cole up and carries him.

Pythor: Jackpot! Finally!

He approaches the wreckage, but the ninja are missing.

Pythor: Where are they? Ah. They're close. I can taste them! (In a singsong voice) Oh ninja! Where are you?

Cole: We're over here!

Kai: Are you nuts?!

Pythor: Come out, come out, wherever you are!

Kai: Cole. Cole, snap out of it! I could really use your help here!

Pythor: Found you.

He blocks Kai's attack with the Nunchucks of Destruction.

Pythor: Oopsie. Didn't work! If only your friend were awake. Perhaps, together, the two of you might have had a fighting chance.

Skylor: Let's find out!

Kai: Skylor? Jay? How did you —

Jay: She found me. If it wasn't for her I would've been Crystallized heh.

Skylor: Hiya, hot shot.

She replicates both Kai's and Cole's powers.

Pythor: Skylor? You're the one with the ability to —

Skylor: Yep.

She combines Fire and Earth to attack Pythor.

Pythor: Impressive! But even your powers will be negated by my Vengestone soldiers! Warriors, advance!

Skylor seals the path with Earth.

Kai: Not bad.

Skylor: It won't last for long. Come on!

Pythor: They're getting away! Break these down! Smash them down! (To the ninja) You can run, but you can't hide! We will find you! The Crystal King sees all! He will bring devastation and ruin down upon all of — Are you still there? I've — Hello? I can't see you! Look, am I just talking to myself or what?
