Still inside the cave, Eleanor watches as Lloyd tries to get the battery charged, but the battery was dead.

Pushing herself up, Eleanor walked over to the mech. "If you use the jumper cables with your powers, that'll work." She said, making Lloyd look up startled at her.

Lloyd jumps down from the mech. "You're right." He takes the cables to attached them to the battery, then conjures up his powers. "Here goes nothing." He charges the cables and the mech turns on. "Yes! That did it!" He turns back to Eleanor. "I can't leave you behind."

"Did we watch the same video?"

Lloyd folds his arms. "Eleanor, you are not staying in this cave! It's too dangerous. Especially with that guard dog outside! We are here for one reason. And that is to find and rescue Zane."

"I got that message loud and clear!" Eleanor points at the dark TV screen.

"Zane is alive! He has to be." Lloyd argued. "I believe that the Ice Emperor is holding him as a prisoner."

Eleanor turns away, her lower lip shook. "Are you sure?"

Lloyd comes over to her. "We have to believe that."

The Titan Mech burst through the cave entrance, gaining the attention of the eagle really fast. It let out a loud screech at the mech as it got ready to attack.

"Want some of us? Come and get it, you overgrown parakeet!" Lloyd said, reading the mech into a fighting stance.

The eagle flew into the air and swoops down, diving at the mech. Latching itself onto the mech's arm, Lloyd throws it back and the big bird takes to the sky again, before again diving.

"Here he comes again!" Eleanor yelled.

"Hold on!" Lloyd yelled back. "Oh no, you don't!" He presses a button and the mech catches the bird, right when it came down, the eagle scratches the right arm of the mech, even though it was hard.

"I'm trying hard to not hurt you, but I hope this stings a bit!" Lloyd presses another button. The Mech swings the bird around and slams it against a rock. It screeches angrily.

Both Lloyd and Eleanor sigh in relief as the eagle flies away. Lloyd deactivates the blade and turns the mech towards the wolf. "It's safe. You can come out." He lowers the mech arm and holds out the hand. "Come on. Hop aboard."

But Red looked scared.

"It won't hurt you, I promise. We'll be able to move a lot faster this way. Come on." Lloyd coaxed gently.

Red sniffs the hand, then jumps on, but still looked skittish.

"You're ok Red." Eleanor said gently. "This hunk of metal belongs to us."

"Yeah." Lloyd nods. "Ready pal?" He asks. "Ellie? You ok?"

"Let's go save Zane!"

Red barks encouragingly.

"Alright." Lloyd nods, moving with the mech. "Hang on Zane, we're coming."

Cole shot out of bed so fast from having a nightmare, and he fell out of bed. Jay looked at him with a genuine friendly smile as held a toothbrush.

"It's ok, buddy. You're ok!" Jay tried to calm his best friend.

"YOU!" An enraged Cole, glares at him.

"Huh?"

Cole picks himself off the floor. "I can't believe you did that! You made me go back to the Bounty for the Traveler's Tea, and it fell off a cliff!" He accused his best friend.

"I, what?" A very confused Jay, just stared at him.

"Cole, relax, buddy." Kai said as his head appears, upside down from the top bunk, then yawned. "It was just a nightmare."

"And you!" Cole anergy points at Kai, who's eyes pop open. "You were even worse! You said I let you down! Well, it was a mistake, ok!? Sometimes, things just happen!"

"Hey, hey, we understand." Jay tried to reassure him. "It's ok."

Cole huffed as he stands up. "Yeah, right. That's not what you said in my dream!" He glares at both of them before he storms out of the hut and slams the door, leaving both the Lightning Ninja and the Fire Ninja staring after the Earth Ninja - very confused.

Kai sighs and slides back under the blankets of his bed. "It's too early for this." He gets back into a comfortable position.

"Maybe we should go after him?" Jay asked.

"He'll cam down." Kai answered, before falling back asleep.

"I wish Eleanor was here." Jay said as he looked out a window. "She can always calm Cole down."

After interrupting Nya, Cole felt worse then when he woke up. He kicks a pebble in frustration. "I wish Ellie was here." He grunts, then looks around when he hears crying, he sees a kid leaning against a cabin as he cries.

The Earth Ninja walks over to him. "Hey there, kiddo. What's wrong?"

The kid looks up at him. "Mr. Ninja." He wipes his tears. "Nothing. I'm ok." He tried to smile.

"You can call me Cole." Cole offers with a friendly smile.

"It's just … I'm suppose to play with my friends, but I lost their ball, now I'm afraid they'll hate me forever!" The kid explained.

"Yeah, I get it."

"How can you possibly get it? You're a ninja! You're not afraid of anything! Ever."

"Sure I am. I am! I make mistakes, too. Sometimes. Little ones. That they just keep reminding you about over and over and over until you." Cole stops his rambling as he realizes the kid is still watching him, he smiles sheepishly. "Uh, what I meant to say is, uh, why don't you find another ball? Or try to make one?"

"How?"

"I don't know." Cole bends down to gather snow, making a snowball. "Out of snow or something?"

"That's a great idea!" The child smiles." He starts to run off towards his friends, but stops and turns back around. "You look like you also have a problem, Mr. Ninja."

"Yeah. I lost something too." Cole replied. "But it's more important then a ball." He drops the snowball that he's been holding. "And now, because of me, we may never get back home, and I won't see my father and my daughter again."

"Oh! That's not a big deal. Just go to the Traveler's Tree. When travelers are stuck, they're supposed to go to the tree."

"Wait!" Cole shakes his head in surprise and runs to the kid. "Did you say "Traveler's Tree?'" At a confirmed nod, the black Ninja cheers. "Oh, I hope that means what I think it does! Where is it? Is it here?"

"Not here." The kid points towards a mountain that's in the distance. "Up there."

Cole turns to see the mountain. "That's a big help!" He said cheerfully. "Now go! Talk to your friends! I'll bet they're waiting for you."

The boy starts to run off, but he turns back around and waves. "Bye, Mr. Ninja! Good luck!"

Cole waves back, then he steadily makes his way to the mountain.

Nya is currently walking along the Great Lake when she stops and turns when she hears a loud roar coming from the mountain.

"Hey, Nya, have you seen Cole?" Kai asks as he, Jay and William job over to her.

"We figured he needed some space to cool off, but now we're getting worried." Jay added.

"Not since this morning." She answered.

"Your friend is up there!" Boma's voice calls out.

The four turn to see Boma and Utaug running towards them, as they tried to catch their breath.

"What?"

"Cole?"

"He's on the mountain." Utaug explained. "Oh, we tried to tell him not to go."

"But he would not listen." Boma added. "He's looking for the Traveler's Tree! Up there!" As soon as he points to the mountain, a loud roar is instantly heard.

The Ninja stare at the mountain in fear.

"Gumdrops!" Jay cried, fearing for his best friend.
