Kai was silent. He had gotten used to the silence, seeing that Jay had almost always slept. Now, he couldn't even talk to the blue ninja when he was awake. He was just trapped in the chamber, alone. The power flowing through him only made his stomach twist. He curled into a ball in the bottom of the chamber, watching the Overlord walk around the room. After several long minutes, Zane finally returned from putting Jay back in his cell.

"What are we going to do with him, Master?" Zane asked the Overlord.

He pondered over it for a moment.

"Grab him and bring him to the holding Chambers," he instructed.

Zane nodded and walked towards the trapped red ninja. Kai watched Zane open the chamber door and pulled him out by the arm. Kai was shaky on his feet at first, but Zane forced him forwards. He looked up as he was forced into the elevator with both Zane and the Overlord behind him. He pushed himself up into the corner, looking between the two others.

"Master, patrol squadron 2 has reported that they're on their way back to HQ with a prisoner," Zane spoke.

"Who?" he asked.

"The water ninja," Zane replied. "The other three escaped."

"How interesting," the Overlord grinned, looking back at Kai.

Kai gulped, avoiding eye contact.

"Tell them to bring her to me," the Overlord instructed. "I want her to see her big brother one last time."

As he said that, the door opened revealing what looked like beds with a glass cover over top of them. Kai gulped when Zane took one hand and the Overlord took the other. They dragged him out of the elevator and into the room, towards on of the beds. Zane released him and opened the curved glass cover from the bed. He turned as the Overlord forced Kai next to Zane and the bed.

"Lie down, Kai," Zane said.

Kai looked behind him to see the Overlord blocking his path. He didn't have any choice in this. He reluctantly climbed onto the bed. He sat for a moment, looking up at Zane. Zane pressing his hands onto Kai's shoulders and forced him to lie down. Kai felt a strap over his arms and chest, and two over his legs.

"Now, stay put until your little sister comes," the Overlord smiled.

Kai watched the Overlord turn towards the door as it opened. Zane picked up an oxygen mask and placed it on Kai's face. He pulled a white blanket over Kai up to his shoulders. Kai watched in fear as Zane closed the cover, lining the masks tube with a notch in the glass before locking it shut.

"Kai!"

Kai's eyes turned to see his sister running towards him. She stopped as her hands rested on the glass dome over him.

"What are they doing to you?" Nya asked, clearly worried. "Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine," Kai told her.

Kai watched Zane walk away from them, but stayed close incase Nya tried to break him out.

"Why are you in there?" Nya asked him.

"I have their powers, Nya," Kai told her. "Jay and Zane powers. He's trying to recreate the golden power in me."

"So he only needs Cole," Nya sighed.

"He isn't here, is he?" Kai asked.

"No, he's safe," Nya replied. "Look, it's only you, me and Zane in here. We can break you out and get as far from here as we can."

"That's not Zane," Kai told her. "The Overlord is controlling him."

Nya frowned and looked at the nindroid. He frowned, getting a message from the system.

"You stay put, I'll be back in a moment," Zane instructed.

Zane turned and walked into the elevator.

"How convenient," Nya smiled once Zane was gone.

She pulled a card she swiped from a droid and opened the door. As she did so, the Overlord walked back into the room.

"What is going on!" he snapped.

Nya spun around, slipping the card into her pocket. The Overlord glared at her, storming up to her. He grabbed her arm and pulled her away from Kai.

"Trying to break him out, are we?" he smirked. "Let's not have that here."

"No, Nya," Kai cried.

"I promised your brother I wouldn't hurt you, and he would cooperate in return," the Overlord told her. "I guess your time with him is over. Let's go see little Jay."

The Overlord closed the dome over Kai and locked it, trapping him inside again. Nay looked at him with her eyes showing worry and concern.

"Don't worry, he'll be fine," the Overlord told her. "Let go."

Nya was pushed forwards and away from Kai. He watched them disappear from his view as his heart sank. He fidgeted under the blanket and straps that held him down. He tried to find a comfortable position, but was unable to no matter how hard he tried. He sighed, letting his head fall against the pillow underneath him.

"So close to freedom, and yet so far," he muttered. He stared at the glass dome above his head, trying to keep himself awake.

Jay's eyes slowly opened as he looked around. He was moving, he release that. No, someone was carrying him. He looked up and Zane he was on Zane's shoulder. He squirmed, knowing he was being taken somewhere and it wouldn't be to his freedom. It would be worse.

"Stop moving before I knock you out again," Zane told Jay.

Jay stopped, hearing the serious tone in Zane's voice. He felt his hands tied together at his wrists and to his side at his elbows so he couldn't move his arms, and his legs tied together at his ankles and thighs. He sighed, looking back at where he came from. It was quiet for a while until Zane pulled Jay off his shoulder and laid him on a metal table.

"Don't move," Zane ordered him.

Jay froze, remaining still on the table. Zane nodded and turned, walking over to a desk nearby. Jay slowly sat up and pulled his legs up to his chest. He watched Zane shuffle through a bunch of papers, then looked around the room.

"Ah, you did bring him here," a voice boomed.

Jay jumped, turning to see the Overlord in the doorway. Jay curled up tighter, terrified. The Overlord walked over to Zane and spoke to him softly. Zane turned and glanced at Jay.

"Yeah, I can," he told the Overlord.

"Then do it," the Overlord said.

Zane nodded. He turned and walked towards a counter, pulling a couple items out of a drawer. Jay watched him until he felt a hand on his arm. He looked up at the Overlord, seeing him holding Jay's arm. Jay sunk down, scared for a moment that something bad was about to happen.

"Lie down," he instructed.

Jay reluctantly followed his orders and lied back on the table. He tried to keep his breathing even, but he was terrified. The Overlord strapped him to the table, one over his chest, two over his arms with one on each, two on each leg and one going over his forehead. Jay followed the Overlord's movements with his eyes, unable to move his head. His eyes then jumped to Zane when he came into his view.

"You can't stop me," the Overlord muttered. "You are just as helpless as he is."
Jay frowned, confused. He noticed Zane glance over at the Overlord too, seeing a confused look plastered on the nindroids face.

"Just shut up," the Overlord snapped.

"Master, are you alright?" Zane asked.
"Was that out loud?" he asked.

"Yes," Zane nodded.

"Ignore that, then," he shrugged it off. "Let's just get this started."

Zane shrugged it away. Jay felt something dig into his left arm and flinched.

"That's not the worst of it," Zane told him, noticing the flinch. "The anesthesia is in. It should take effect momentarily."
"Anesthesia?" Jay questioned.

"Don't worry, it shouldn't take long," the Overlord told him. "Or, at least, you won't be here for long."

Jay could feel the drug taking effect as he struggled to stay awake. Of course, he couldn't fight it and slowly drifted off to sleep. But not before he felt a searing pain in his leg. What was going to happen to him now? Would he wake up from this? He didn't know, and was afraid to find out.
