Everyone on the Bounty was finished what they were doing and guests were starting to arrive.
"Cole, have you gotten to Kai yet," Jay asked.
"No and Nya can't locate them," Cole replied.
"Is there a problem," Sensei asked, interrupting them.
Jay pulled Sensei away from everyone, "we can't locate Kai or Lloyd anywhere."
"This is bad. Get Zane and Nya and go search the city," Sensei ordered.
Jay and Cole nodded and ran to find Zane and Nya.
The friends had just learned that they're fighting the overlord. Lloyd was trapped in a cage and flippin out. Kai, Camille, Neuro and Karloff fought the so called overlord. They ended up defeating him, but instead of Lloyd being released, they turned around and he was gone.
"I win," the overlord said with an evil cackle.
"Wait, WHAT!" Kai yelled.
Suddenly, trap doors started appearing everywhere, trying to catch the friends off guard. Kai and Neuro escaped. They ran out into the lobby and saw the manager in panic. Then Camille and Karloff came sprinting out, catching their breath.
"I'm sorry, someone has hacked into the system. I can't do anything," The manager said.
"Kai," Nya cried, running into the lobby of the arcade.
"Where's the birthday boy," Jay asked.
"Let's just put it out there," Camille said to Kai.
Kai sighed, "he's been kidnapped."
"WHAT!" the four ninja yelled.
"Who would do this," Cole yelled.
"Well, Chen, Morro, Overlord, Cryptor," Zane started listing people.
"I didn't need a list," Cole yelled at Zane.
"Cole, calm down," Jay said as calming as he could.
Cole took deep breaths in and out, calming down. He looked to Kai, "tell us what happen."
"Well, we were playing the game here," Kai started.
He told them about them fighting past villains who were fakes. How it was the overlord they were fighting.
"Then we turned around and Lloyd was gone. The overlord said that he won, but not in the voice like before, the trap doors were trying to catch us off guard and capture us too," Kai finished.
"So, any ideas who this capture is," Cole asked.
"It seems like the system was hacked," Zane said.
"No duh," the manager said.
Everyone turned to him in synch and stared. He turned and left like that.
"Let's start looking for clues," Kai said.
They split into teams, Kai, Nya and Neuro, Karloff, Jay and Camille and Cole and Zane. Cole and Zane went to examine the system for clues, while Kai, Nya and Neuro re entered the gaming room they were in and Karloff, Jay and Camille found their way into the basement to look around.
Lloyd was screaming as he fell. He landed in a sack, which was tied up with him inside.
"Who are you? Let me out!" Lloyd yelled.
He kicked and fought in the sack, but couldn't get out. He eventually gave up and crossed his arms in the sack. He didn't know what to do. He sat for what felt like hours, but was only about thirty minutes until it opened. A pink gas filled the sack and Lloyd's lungs. Lloyd kicked and yelled for help, but it was useless. The gas knocked him out in a matter of seconds.
The man who kidnapped Lloyd, handed the sack to another man.
"Take him and tie him down," the kidnapper ordered.
The second nodded and walked off with Lloyd in the sack. He walked into a room, which looked like a lab. There was a large, metal table in the middle with straps that not even the strongest of masters could break through. The man pulled the sleeping Lloyd out and placed him on the table, tying down the straps across his chest, arms, wrists, legs, ankles and a holder for his head.
"His he tied down," the kidnapper asked from the doorway.
"Yes."
"Good, gas him again," the kidnapper ordered.
The second man pulled out a gas gun and sprayed Lloyd with it. His eyes slowly opened. He tried to sit up, and then found he couldn't and began to panic.
"Calm down green ninja," the kidnapper said.
"Who are you and what do you want," Lloyd said, wanting answers.
"I'm the leader of the C.A.M.E. Citizen Against Masters with Elements. But you can call me Kale," the kidnapper said.
"And I'm Jack," the second said.
"Jack, you are dismissed," Kale said.
The second man left, leaving Lloyd and Kale alone.
"No, I don't want to hurt you, but I will if I have to, understand," Kale said.
"Yes, I do," Lloyd said.
"We think that the Elemental Masters are bad people who want to control us. Our goal, capture and destroy all master," Kale said.
"What," Lloyd said, shocked.
"Not you though. Not yet that is. We have something else in mind, but first we need the others on your team. Starting with the white one, then red, then black, blue and finally the girl," Kale said.
"But you said," Lloyd started.
"I know, we have a way to take your powers, but we need answers and a test dummy," Kale said, looking Lloyd in the eyes.
"No, not happening," Lloyd said.
"No one says no to me. You will do it, you don't have a choice," Kale said, holding a sword in his hand, "or I can end this here and now."
Lloyd thought for a moment. Live and be their dummy, or die right this minute. He didn't want to die or be their lab rat, but he mostly didn't want to die. He made up his mind.
"Fine, I'll do it," Lloyd said.
