Darkness offspring

Five thousand fathoms down

At the bottom of the ocean, everyone is working to repair the Hydro Bounty.

Nya: Try again.

P.I.X.A.L.: Still nothing.

Maya: Maybe the line is blocked.

Nya: It's not the line, we just replaced the line.

Maya: Oh, what about that little clicky-thumpy thing over there?

Nya: You mean the piston?

Maya: Ah! Is that what it's called?

Nya: It's not the piston, Mom. It's the battery, okay? It's dead. Look. Isn't there something else you could be doing?

Maya: I'm here to help you, dear!

Nya: I don't need help! I've been doing just fine for a long time. The whole time you were gone, and Kai and I were on our own, raising ourselves? Remember that time?

Maya: You know that your father and I didn't have any choice about that. We were imprisoned, and ...

Nya: Oh, I know, Mom, I know! I'm not saying it's your fault, I'm just saying - (She smacks the pistons irritatedly.) It's a bit late to help now. I'm not a little girl anymore, okay?

She opens a door to another room. Jay, Acid, and Lloyd, who were listening in, quickly run away. Nya enters to find Jay using a plunger on the odometer and Lloyd adjusting a wheel and Acid is eating bacon. They all grin sheepishly at her.

Nya: Great. You guys heard all that?

Jay: Uh, heard what?

Lloyd: No, we, um ... (He turns a wheel and gets sprayed by water. He quickly turns it the other direction.)

Zane: Yes, we did.

Jay: Zane, I think we need to adjust your honesty circuits. (He sticks his plunger on Zane's face.)

Acid: (licks the plate) and tell Maya that this bacon is good. (Eats the plate)

Nya: Well, bad news. I can't fix it. The battery is shot.

P.I.X.A.L.: We must find a way to recharge it.

Jay: Uh, what about me? Why don't I just give it the ole' zap zap?

P.I.X.A.L.: The sub is powered by a high capacity carbon-ion battery. Linking you with it would be very dangerous.

Zane: P.I.X.A.L. is right. I was briefly attached to a similar contraption, and it nearly proved fatal.

Acid: huh? Since when?

Zane: you weren't there but it's when we fought Unagami.

Acid: alright.

Jay: Good reason. Moving on. Um, is there any other way to charge it?

P.I.X.A.L.: We need a large supply of energy.

Maya: What about the power source we've been tracking? How far away is that?

P.I.X.A.L.: Approximately 300 yards southeast of our position.

Jay: That's pretty close.

Zane: And Maya is correct in theory. If we can locate the energy source, we should be able to tap into it with a portable battery, bring the unit back, and recharge the sub.

Lloyd: 300 yards. How do we get there?

P.I.X.A.L.: What about the APS suits?

Nya: What's an APS suit?

P.I.X.A.L. takes them to the hangar bay.

Maya: Oh, my.

Nya: Wow! (She leaps into a Hydro Mech.) I'll take this one.
