Kai ran, jumping over roots and rocks sticking out of the ground. He pushed past branches, which either came back and hit him of snapped under the pressure. After about half an hour, he collapsed from exhaustion. Looking around, he found himself in a clearing. Climbing to his feet again, he looked around for any Stone warriors hiding in the shadows.
"He's probably got his whole army after me by now," Kai told himself. "And I don't even have my sword. Where could Cole be?"

He started walking again, back into the forest. He watched his step, hoping that he didn't run into any Stone Warriors. Then he saw buildings up ahead. He ran and ducked into a bush near the edge. Watching, he saw Lord Garmadon holding his sword, and Cole on the ground, holding his leg.

"He's hurt," Kai whispered to himself.

He watched Cole get thrown into a cell, and heard Zane and Jay's voices following it. Lord Garmadon turned, and Kai ducked away.

"Find that red ninja!" he heard Garmadon shout. "He's all that's left before my plan can fall into action."

"I need to get out of here," Kai told himself.

He crawled a safe distance away from the base, then climbed up and started running. He had to get off the island and warn Sensei. Then it hit him, how could he get off the island. He had no boat, no helicopter, no nothing. And it would take to long to try to swim. He had to go back and find something.

As he was deciding whether or not to go back, he ran right into a warrior. He fell to the ground and a sword was brought to his chest. He crawled backwards, right into a tree. He cornered himself.

"Looks like it's one on one," Kai said.

The warrior yelled in his ancient language. The more warriors appeared from the shadows.

"Or one on an entire army," Kai's eyes widened.

"Unless you surrender," a voice said.

"Who are you?" Kai asked, looking for the source of the voice.

He knew it wasn't Garmadon, or any of his friends. Then a bigger Stone warrior with four arms walked into his view.

"Look, your weaponless and cornered," he said. "Just give up."

"Ninja never quit," Kai said.

He then kicked the warrior at his feet away. He grabbed the sword it had and climbed the tree behind him. He found a stable branch out of their range and looked down. The warriors were trying to climb after him, but failing miserably. Then the tree shook. They were trying to cut it down. Kai ran and jumped, grabbing the branch of another tree. He pulled himself up and moved towards the base of it. He looked down, and no one was paying attention to where he was anymore.

He moved and jumped to the next tree, holding onto a branch. Once he got to the base of that one, he saw the beach and right on the shore, laid a boat. It was unguarded and everything. His way home was only feet away from him. He jumped from the tree, flipping and landing right by the boat. He pushed it off the beach and fully into the water. He climbed in and started the motor.

"I'll be back guys," Kai said, guilt filling him with the fact he was leaving his team, captured, behind in Garmadon's clutches.

As the boat sped off, he looked back and saw the Stone Warriors running out onto the beach, clearly anger that he escaped.

Nya stood in the bridge, constantly on the computer trying to find her brother and the other ninja with no luck.

"Anything?" Lloyd asked.

"Nothing," she sighed. "Where could they be?"

Lloyd turned and walked out to the deck, looking over the edge at the ocean below them. They had landed on the water and were sitting, waiting for communication from the ninja on their whereabouts. So far, nothing. Lloyd watched the fish swimming below him, trying to entertain himself. Then he heard an engine. Looking up, he saw a small boat off in the distance, speeding towards them.

"Nya! Someone's coming this way!" he shouted to her in the bridge.

She ran out, and saw the small boat speeding across the waves right towards them.

"Be careful, it might be part of Garmadon's army," she said. "Go get Sensei."

Lloyd nodded, and ran towards Sensei's room. Nya stood, watching the small boat as it came closer. Then she noticed a small figure dressed in red.

"Kai?" she questioned.

Then Sensei and Lloyd joined her.

"It's Kai!" Lloyd cheered.

The motor turned off as it ran out of gas and Kai jumped over, swimming quickly towards the Bounty. Nya and Sensei pulled him onto the deck.

"Where's Cole?" Sensei asked.

"He was caught," Kai said. "Garmadon has him, and the others locked up on an island out that way. There's a whole army of Stone Warriors and he's go three of the four weapons of spinjitzu now. And…..he hurt Cole."

"The Dark Island," Sensei sighed, looking towards the darken horizon. "I was hoping that it wasn't true and those clouds weren't showing it's rising. I seems my hopes were false."

"What do we do, uncle?" Lloyd asked.

"What do we do?" Nya asked.

"I...don't know," Sensei said.

"We need to keep Lloyd safe along with Cole's scythe," Kai said.

"Until further notice, I don't want anyone coming on or off this boat," Sensei said. "I'm going to meditate, trying to come up with something."

Kai nodded as Sensei walked off.

"Oh, and Kai," he looked back. "Don't do anything you'll regret later on."

"Yes Sensei," Kai nodded.

A door closed as Sensei left and Kai collapsed on the ground.

"Kai!" Nya cried out.

Sensei appeared in the doorway again after Nya cried out her brothers name.

"Kai, is something wrong?" Sensei asked.

"No, just really tired," he said. "I think I'm going to take a nap."

"Alright," Sensei said.

Nya helped her brother to his feet and to the ninja's bedroom. He fell asleep on his bed, while Nya and Lloyd made something for them to have for lunch.

"Nya," Lloyd said. "Do you think the others are OK?"

"I'm sure they are, Lloyd," she replied, even though she knew they weren't.

Lloyd smiled and sat at the table with a grilled cheese sandwich on the plate in front of him.

"Lloyd, I'm going to go and just make sure that the serpentine aren't causing any issues," Nya said. "Once you're finished eating, you can go rest, alright."

Lloyd nodded, eating his lunch. Nya walked to the bridge and started a scan of Ninjago for serpentine activity. She was just about done when a cloth was wrapped around her mouth. She attempted to elbow the person behind her, which backfired on her. Whoever was behind her knew it was coming, grabbed her arm and pulled in behind her with the other one. The cloth was tied around her mouth and her hands were tied behind her back. Then she was pushed forwards into the computer, and punched unconscious.

Lloyd sat in his room, completely oblivious to what was going on with Nya. He sat looking out the window, waiting for Kai to wake up. Then he heard someone outside the room. He thought it might be Nya so he got up to see. When he opened the door, he knew it was a big mistake and slammed it shut, running to wake Kai.

"Kai!" he shouted, shaking him.

Kai woke, looking at a panicked Lloyd.

"What's up?" he asked.

Then the door went flying across the room as a group of Stone Warriors charged in. Kai jumped to his feet, pulling Lloyd in behind him. All the warriors drew their swords at them, and Kai realized he was unarmed.

"Hold on, Lloyd," he said.

"What?!" Lloyd cried.

Kai picked up Lloyd and spun into his fiery tornado. They made it out of the room and started sprinting for their lives. They ran out onto the deck as a net was thrown on them. Kai tried to untangle them, but froze when an evil laugh erupted. Lloyd grabbed Kai's leg as Lord Garmadon looked at them.

"Look who I have here," he smirked. "The red ninja and my son."

"Dad, let us go!" Lloyd begged.

"I'm sorry son," Garmadon replied. "I never wanted it to be this way, but what other choice do I have."

Kai then noticed Nya behind the dark lord, behind held by two warriors. She was out cold.

"What did you do to my sister!?" Kai cried, angry.

"She'll be fine," Lord Garmadon smirked. "Now, where's the scythe?"

"This scythe?" a voice asked.

Lloyd and Kai looked behind them and saw Sensei standing above the doorway, holding the scythe tightly in his hands.

"Uncle! Help!" Lloyd cried.

"Hand it over, brother, and no one gets hurt," Garmadon said.

"You'll have to pry it from my cold, dead hands, brother," Wu said, taking a fighting stance.

"Get him!" Lord Garmadon commanded.

A group of Stone Warriors surrounded Sensei Wu, and Sensei took each one out. Then General Kozu swung at him. Sensei dodged. They fought back and forth, until he landed a blow on Sensei. The scythe flew from his hands and lands in front of Garmadon. Sensei looked as Garmadon picked it up.

"The final weapon," he smirked.

Kozu grabbed Wu by the shirt.

"Get rid of him," Garmadon ordered.

Kozu then threw Sensei far off the ship, into the ocean.

"Sensei!" Lloyd and Kai cried.

Kai and Lloyd didn't have much time to worry about Sensei, since they were trapped. A helicopter flew above them as a long rope dropped down with a hook attached. The net they were caught in was pulled under them and the open ends attached to the hook. Garmadon grabbed the rope as Kai and Lloyd felt the ground below them disappear. Lloyd pulled closer to Kai, holding him tightly as they Bounty disappeared.

"Don't worry, I'll protect you," Kai whispered to him.

Lloyd nodded, but never let go of Kai for a second.
