"Isn't this a pleasant surprise" Aria says
Aria sat in her and Lloyd's old base near the school, when she heard a noise behind her. Aria turned around to see Pythor and Skales behind her.
"Your kind has always had a keen sense," Pythor chuckles "princess."
"I wasn't born until after the serpentine's entombment," Aria stands up and faces them "how could you possibly know who I am?"
"The world has many secrets your highness," Pythor says "we have a proposition for you."
"What kind?" Aria asks
"Show me where the city of Ouroboros is." Pythor demands with a laugh "and Lloyd won't get hurt."
"...where is Lloyd?" Aria asks
"He's safely under our care." Pythor tells her "For now."
"Have you tried looking yourself?" Aria questions "It's right under your nose."
"Foolish girl, don't you think I've looked." Pythor replies "Do you want Lloyd's safe return or not?"
"I'll show you where it is," Aria says "but how are you sure I know where it is?"
"Oh trust me," Pythor chuckles "I know you know."
Aria narrows her eyes at him before turning and heading towards the exit. Once she was out of earshot, Scales turns to Pythor.
"But we don't have the boy." Skales whispers
"She doesn't know that," Pythor says "in due time, everything will fall into place. Don't you worry."

Aboard the Destiny's Bounty, Lloyd Garmadon is discussing with the Ninja how he would attack a Serpentine.
"First, I'll stomp on his tail. Then when he turns, a thunder clap to his ears. Then when he's stunned, I'll disarm him" Lloyd says
Cole shook his head "Too late, he's already hypnotized you and now you're under his control"
"Or he's already put you in a squeeze" Zane adds
"Or spit on you with his hallucinatory venom. Trust me, bad stuff" Kai says
Lloyd groans "Uncle, what's the best way to stun a Serpentine if you don't know what kind they are?"
Wu entered the room with a box "Hmm... sadly, it was the Sacred Flute you four carelessly lost"
"Hey, no, no, no, we didn't lose it. Pythor stole it" Jay corrects
W sighs "Whatever the case, without it I fear we have nothing to combat their powers. We may have prevented them from uniting in the past, but they will try again, and one day they will be stronger"
"Don't worry. I've almost reached my Full Potential, and when I become the Green Ninja, we're not gonna need any magic flute" Cole says
Kai scoffs "You're gonna be the Green Ninja? Hahaha, don't make me laugh"
Zane intervenes "I thought it was decided that I was destined to become the Green Ninja"
"Oh! The only thing decided about you, Zane, is that you're weird" Jay says and the Ninja start arguing.
Lloyd rolls his eyes "Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's in the box?"
"Your new uniforms" Wu replies, the Ninja gasp in awe
The ninja boys changed into them.
"Whoa! They've got, like, armor." Jay says excitedly
Kai smiles "I love the gold highlights"
