☯☼🏮Ninjago: The Master of Crystal💎🏹✳

Snake Jaguar

(In a flashback, Wu knocks on a hidden workshop's door and Dr. Julien answers.)

Past Julien: Can I help you?

Past Wu: I'm looking for a boy named Zane.

Past Julien: Hm. He's out back chopping wood. I'll take you to him. (They walk though the forest.) It's curious, you're our second guest in a long while. An visited us last night. He had taken ill, and he needed shelter. It was as if winter had followed him here.

Past Wu: The Master of Ice.

Past Julien: Well, of course, we gave him shelter, food. He was very thankful, and very intrigued by my son. It's peculiar. Ever since he left, Zane's been acting stranger than usual.

Past Wu: Very peculiar indeed.

Past Julien: Here he is. (He points to Zane, who is chopping wood. Wu walks over to him.) 

Past Wu: Hello, Zane.

Past Zane: Hello. Have we met?

Past Wu: No. But some would say I have a knack at finding young talent.

Past Zane: Do you need me to chop wood?

Past Wu: Hehe. Maybe one day, but not today.

Past Zane: Then why are you here? Are you lost?

Past Wu: Lost? Hm. An interesting word. Sometimes one has to be lost in order to be found.

Past Zane: That does not make any sense.

Past Wu: Maybe one day, but not today. Goodbye, Zane.

Past Zane: Uh, will I see you again?

Past Wu: I'm sure of it. And when we do, you'll be asked to do far more than chop wood. (He leaves, leaving Zane confused.) 

(Zane, disguised as Snake Jaguar, and Izzy, still invisible on his shoulder, ride on a train with the other Sons of Garmadon. Another train is coming and Zane gets worried but the other bikers laugh it off. They head into a secret tunnel before the other train could hit them and stop in a secret passage way.)

Ultra Violet: It's time you meet the Big Man.

Zane: The Big Man? (Ultra Violet laughs.) 

(Meanwhile in Ninjago City, Lloyd rides atop a tram.)

Lloyd: Where was Zane last seen?

Jay: Central Station. But once they went underground, P.I.X.A.L. lost his signal. We haven't been able to pick up Cole's intercom either.

Lloyd: If they're taking Zane to their hideout, then Cole could be held captive there. We can't lose Zane. I'm over Central now. (He jumps off.)

Man: Oh, look, son! It's the Green Ninja!

Boy: Is it? Where?

Man: There! Look! (He points but Lloyd is gone.)

Boy: Yeah right, Dad, very funny.

Lloyd: No sign of Zane or Cole. They could be anywhere by now. (Nya is heard building something under the Bounty.)

Kai: Ugh, do you mind, sis? We're trying to save Cole and Zane.

Nya: What do you think I'm doing? Zane won't last long undercover in a biker gang without a bike.
