Skeleton and Serpentine troops surrounded the perimeter of the Temple of Fire, and anyone contained inside would have a low chance of escape. In this case, Cole, Jay, Zane and Lily all were in a bit of a tough knot, they hovered right above the bubbling pool of lava in a brimstone cage, which contained to any of their elemental powers as they discovered.

"Ungh!" Lily pulled on the bars for the thousandth time, attempting to break free and fly them out through the top of the volcano, but according to the cage that was not going to happen. Zane pulled her away from the bars, afraid of her getting strained, "Don't strain yourself, you've tried enough." Lily just looked up at Zane's upside down face, she groaned in frustration and lay there on the cold metal in instant defeat. Cole looked down at the skeletons placed almost everywhere in the temple, probably to stand guard, but he couldn't see Pythor, or Andrea anywhere.

"Any sign of your girlfriend?" Jay asked, snickering. Cole growled, "No, and shut up, she's not my girlfriend."

Jay rolled his eyes in sarcasm, "Oh sure, sure, of course she isn't."

"I mean it!" Cole snapped back, turning sharply towards him. Jay chuckled, "Of course..." The earth ninja began to roll up his sleeves in an attempt to fight, but before they could break out into a scuffle Zane placed himself between them, "You two stop it, your acting like Lily and Andrea."

"Don't remind me," Lily stated hopelessly, looking quite guilty. Zane walked over to her and helped her stand, "While some of this happens to be your fault, I don't see why you find it all to be your cause, Andrea had something to do with this."

Lily sighed, "Yeah, but I was the one who caused her to be angry, I shouldn't have fueled her flames..."

Zane put a hand on her shoulder, "Do not fret, we will get out of here soon enough, all we have to do is hope for the best, and I'm sure things will improve between you and your sister."

Jay decided to join in on the conversation, "Speaking of flames, has anyone wondered where Kai could be?"

As for the absent fire ninja, he was located in a remote dungeon not far below from the Fire Temple itself, and since it was underground, the ceiling dripped with wet soil, and the whole place smelled like mildew and moist dirt. Kai only sat there, in his cell, in both defeat and shame, he could not get the image of Inferna's death out of his head, it was still fresh, like a haunting flashback. His eyes were wide with horror, and his mouth only quivered with fear, he was glad he didn't have any company around him, that way he wouldn't have to speak to anyone about his pain. Although, he had heard the saying that keeping all your troubles in will only make you feel worse, and instead you'll have to tell them to others to get them out, but how could he forget something as horrid as that?

Kai looked down at his hands, they were dirty and cut, some blood seeped out from his palms, but he didn't care. His arms were bound to the wall in chains, so he wouldn't get any ideas on escaping, which he didn't plan to do at all, because, all he thought of was despair and grief, his heart had been crushed, and his soul had been broken into fragments of shame and hopelessness. Seeming no one was with him, he didn't find it bad to hug his two knees tightly together, bury his head deep into them...

and cry.

Meanwhile, on the other side of Ninjago, the citizens began to take notice of the vast storm that approached, it was unlike anything they have ever seen before and it was quite getting much more threatening and more dangerous in size. Sensei out of all of the people of Ninjago was the one to notice this, and his suspicions only grew to his demise. "I fear something terrible has happened to my students," he uttered.

Nya for instance was on her way to deliver the bad news, she had just found out the others, and some other two girls she had not seen before had gotten captured by Pythor and his men. "Ugh! Why are those guys always getting into trouble?! Goes to show they need me around to keep the bad guys away..." She did not notice the group of snakes that spotted her out of the bushes, they were most surprised at her sudden appearance, where had she been throughout the last few days? The snakes hopped onto their Snake Bikes and rode after Nya's massive Exo Suit. Nya heard the engines roaring behind her and once she realized the snakes had spotted her she slapped her forehead, "So much for stealth." She activated her rocket engines, but it seems she forgot to fill them up with fuel, "Seriously?!" She did not stop running however, she believed since she had a head start, she would make it out before the snakes actually caught her. The snakes quickened their pace and soon were head to head with her mechs feet. She took notice and turned around, making the snakes force a stop, she threw out one of her Samurai Blades, and hit one of the bikes, the blade returned to her hand and she kept on moving. Only one snake remained, and Nya actually believed she had a chance against him, until the snake called reinforcements. "Oh you have got to be kidding me!" she yelled.

A Fangpyre pulled in his Rattlecopter in close, of course this was a big mistake considering it was a toy compared to Nya's giant Samurai Mech. The snake gulped, and Nya grabbed the copter with her mech's hands, the snake jumped out in retreat. Nya threw the copter behind her managing to hit two more copters out of the air, oh how she wished she had refueled before the quest! This would've been much easier. Although the odds seemed to be in her favor now that she was down to three snakes on three new Snake bikes. She looked back and smirked, "Hm, looks to me things are going to get a bit heated up around here." She drew out her Samurai blade, and the snakes were all in shock, she turned and they didn't even have time to put on the breaks before she slashed them back to the old times. The snakes screeched until they couldn't be heard from Nya's ears as they reached farther into Ninjago, she smirked, "Have a nice flight!" She then continued to speed towards Destiny's Bounty in an attempt to stop Garmadon from carrying out his plan, before it became too late.

(Yes! Nya to the rescue! Again! It seems our faithful ninjas cant help getting a few assistance from our favorite Samurai! But will Nya really save them all? Or is there a broken fire ninja we seem to be forgetting? It seems fate has been cruel nowadays, and only time will tell if things will come out as they plan to be, in other ways, I finally have the plot for my series first episode! I just have to finish this pilot (not going to rush) and we'll get on with the drama, suspense, and some real f****** action! (sorry for the language), anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed this one, and I cant wait for tomorrow's chapter! Until next time, have a Wacky Wednesday, but before I go, I have a quite a question for you guys, do you think Kai will gain his flare back? Anyway, thanks for reading guys!)
