-[car engine revving] -[dramatic music]

Oh, man, let's hope this works!

Hope what works?

-Awesome! -Whoo-hoo!

Not bad for something I didn't have any time to test out, right?

Sure, but a head's up would have been nice!

Oh, did I not mention this thing splits apart?

-Negatory. -Sorry.

I mean, why'd you think we each had our own little cockpits?

Just thought it looked cool.

Come on, we gotta catch up to that Pace Dragon!

[dramatic music continues]

[crowd cheering]

Yeah, baby!

Do I put on the sweetest games or what?

What-what?

The Merge was caused by Master Wu.

-That can't be true! -But it is.

The Ninja's precious Master Wu was the very person

who caused the Merge.

He is solely responsible for\ your parents going missing,

and every other catastrophic effect of the Merge.

No way. Master Wu was a wise man.

He wouldn't have caused all that.

[chuckles] Arin, you still see the world as a tiny child does.

Yeah, right.

To you, the Ninja are always good,

and I am always the villain.

Okay, I agree with that.

[sighs] Real life doesn't work like that.

There is light in the darkness, and darkness in the light.

So I'm supposed to believe you're some kinda hero?

Well, I've done harsh things.

But always in the service of reversing the Merge.

That's really been your goal this whole time?

Undoing the Merge?

Only by re-separating the Merged Lands

will we be able to save them from each other.

It must be done.

And the process could bring back all of those who were lost.

I...

I don't trust you.

I don't need you to believe me now, Arin.

Because I know the day will come when you see I am right.

Let's hope you do before it's too late.

You mean, we're free to go?

You always were.

[flames roaring]

-[dramatic music] -[engines revving]

I don't see the Pace Dragon anywhere.

Don't lose hope.

I need a better vantage point.

-Found it! -Is it close?

I'd say it's the opposite of close.

Pour on the speed!

[dramatic music continues]

Ha! Pace this, dragon!

Come on, we can pass it inside this tunnel...

-Uh oh! -What "Uh oh?"

Don't just say "Uh oh!"

There's been a cave-in!

There's no other way through!

So what are you suggesting?

Driving right into this wall?

-Great idea, Nya! -What?

[Nya] That was not an idea!

I hope this works...

If it doesn't, we'll find out real quick.

I was guessing this thing would be strong enough when combined.

Master Wu did say, "Only unity can save us."

Do you think he was talking about driving through a rock wall?

-Probably not. -Come on!

We gotta beat that dragon!

Hold onto your masks!

[dramatic music continues]

[all gasping]

[Roby] What the what? They did it!

That was ultra stang-zoot!

I hereby gotta say,

the Ninja are officially still in the games!

[sighing]

[gentle music]

Thanks, Riyu.

I know I should talk to Lloyd,

but he'll never believe his Uncle Wu could've done something that bad.

-[Riyu chirping] -Yeah, Ras is probably lying.

But what if it's even partly true?

Frak trusts him, and he was always a great judge of people.

And Ras is right about one thing.

I'm not the ninja I should be.

You really think Sora faked my object Spinjitzu

and didn't tell me?

Yeah. Yeah, Ras is probably lying about that, too.

I hope.

[Kai] Riyu? Can you hear me?

-We need help. -Hey, buddy.

Thought we were having a moment here, but okay.

You do you.

[dramatic music]

Come on, Euphrasia...

[yelling]

[crowd cheering]

-[Roby] Whoa! Close one! -[whimpering]

Remember, whoever knocks their opponent off their platform first equals, winner!

Cloud Monk!

What do your precious scrolls say about this match?

The Writers of Destiny no longer believe

our words dictate all outcomes.

We also use our actions to help decide our fate!

Well, my actions will decide yours!

[grunting and groaning]

We have a winner!

[Zeatrix laughs]

The Elemental Power of Wind!

A perfect compliment to my powers!

See how I handled that monk?

That's nothing compared to the destiny I'm gonna write for you, Ras.

[Ras growls]

[dramatic music]

Uh-oh! A cloud of knock-out gas so thick you could chew on it!

-[dramatic music continues] -[grunting]

[crowd gasps]

Nokt wins! Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Security! Stop or you're disqualified!

[Nokt chuckles]

Told you it would be no problem, sister.

[gasps] Sister?

One, two, strike. One, two, strike.

[Arin] Hey, Frak.

Hey, man! Sorry I haven't been around much,

my Master put me on an intense training regiment.

I haven't even seen many games.

Frak, why didn't you tell me Ras was your master?

Why? Do you know him?

Yeah. He's an enemy to the Ninja.

Ras hunted dragons for Imperium, he captured the Cloud Kingdom, he--

Uh, maybe we're talking about different guy named Ras?

Because he's been nothing but good to me.

Just tell me, have you used one of those Wolf Masks with the gong?

Oh, I wish! Shatterspin is amazing!

But my Master says first I need to get my skills up.

-That's why I've been training so hard. -Don't do it ever!

The Gong actually shatters the goodness inside you.

You're joking, right?

Those masks will make you more powerful,

but they corrupt you. Poison you.

Ras only cares about power, no matter what the cost.

That doesn't sound right.

Everything Ras taught me to do has built me up.

Look, I'll show you. Follow my movements.

Ras says everyone spends too much time trying to find harmony.

Hiyah!

But you can't passively wait for the world to harmonize...

Hiyah!

So you must take from life what you need.

Hiyah!

Well, I do feel like sometimes life is just dragging me along. Hiyah!

I've been able to do a wonky form of Spinjitzu for a while.

Hiyah! But I haven't progressed at all.

My master says we must force the progress we need. Hiyah!

Force the world to work the way you want it to.

Power through!

-Hiyah! -Hiyah!

Whoa!

I did it. I did it!

-A real Spinjitzu tornado! -Nice!

You have no idea how long I've been trying to do that!

That felt amazing! That felt... right!

And all it took was a little bit of my Master Ras's teachings.

[phone chiming]

Speaking of which, my Master wants me

to come to the plaza. Maybe I'm competing today!

Let's go!

[Arin sighs]

[dramatic music]

[grunting, gasping]

Ha! Lloyd looks absolutely green with envy

at Mr. Pale's light-bending inviso-power!

[grunting]

Ow! When did you learn to do that?

You're not the only one who's been training!

We gotta lot of catching up to do, buddy,

after I bring home that trophy!

Now this is just getting annoying.

-[grunting] -[crowd cheering]

It was impossible not to see that victory!

Lloyd wins!

Well-played, Greenie.

Well-played.

Wow, since you've always been invisible,

I've never actually seen your face before.

That's an interesting beard.

Yeah, you try shaving with invisible skin. [chuckles]

Now Lloyd has the powers of Mr. Pale.

Care to prove it?

-[crowd cheering] -Where is he?

Zero time to chillax, 'cause the next two competitors are up!

First, he's the ninja that flirts with dirt,

Cole, Elemental Master of Earth!

-Huh. -Really.

And his competitor, the snake who shakes and breaks!

He's Frak, Elemental Master of Quake!

[crowd cheering]

Why is Arin with him?

Hey, Arin...

I'm here!

It's an honor to compete with you, Cole!

-Sorry I was late, Roby! -No problem.

No one loves a dramatic entrance more than me!

This event puts the hurt in hurdle!

To win, you gotta be the first to ring the bell!

You ring, you cling onto victory.

Stang-zoot!

[bell rings]

-[both grunting] -[dramatic music]

[grunting]

[yelling]

Oh, no! Is it over for Cole?

[dramatic music continues]

[grunting]

Can't control metal! Whoa!

So now you believe me that Frak is on Ras' team?

I told you I wouldn't lie to you.

-Are you sure about that? -Huh?

Someone told me that during the Blood Moon Ritual,

I didn't knock out Ras with my object Spinjitzu.

That you used your power to make me think I did.

-[crashing] -[crowd gasping]

I...

I did.

I'm sorry.

Nya was about to be sent into the Nether Space.

You were our only hope and I couldn't let you fail.

And you were so frustrated when you got demoted in training,

I-- I just wanted you to have a win.

So not even my best friend thought I could do it on my own.

No, it's not like that, I...

[both grunting]

[yelling]

It's like this whole thing is built for Frak's powers.

[bell ringing]

Photo finish! But this photo has a clear winner.

-Frak is victorious! -[cheering]

[laughing] You have no idea how exciting it is to have met you, Cole.

You've always been an inspiration to me.

Uh, thanks?

I can't believe it!

It's like when I used to pretend to be a Ninja, but it's a real power!

Woo-hoo!

You fought hard, Cole. You should be proud.

Not to be that guy,

but did this game seem weighted against us?

Yes. And remember how we didn't get invitations in the first place?

I'm having some suspicions.

We have some time before the next game,

but we need to keep our skills sharp.

Every time we lose,

Ras gets closer to whatever his evil endgame is.

How did you pull out that landing?

I've got the elemental power of balance now, remember?

Sora, I can tell you're distracted.

And if you're distracted, you'll never achieve Spinjitzu.

I know, I know. I just-- I have a lot on my mind right now.

Are you sure you should've told the Ninja brat all of that, Lord Ras?

Information can be power.

And information can be poison.

I omitted some of my intentions,

but everything I told him was true.

And that truth will poison his mind.

Ah, and that poison will spread to the other Ninja.

And drive them all apart.

Exactly.

Because they are the only threat to my main goal in this tournament:

gaining control of all the Elemental Powers.

That is the only way I can create the Dragon Icons I need.

Is a Dragon Icon how you lured

and trapped that Source Dragon under Imperium?

Yes. Without the proper Icons,

summoning Source Dragons is impossible.

So we cannot suffer any more losses

at the hands of the Ninja, like Jay Walker did.

We must win by any means necessary.

Of course, Master.

And we're back!

Every game, the competition gets competitiver,

the intensity gets intenser, and fun gets funner!

And that's not gonna stop now with our next battle.

You know her, you love her.

Nya!

[crowd cheering]

Versus the mysterious man of few words and fewer fears.

Nokt!

Where's your brother?

Not here to cheer?

Or what of that other useless Ninja?

The one you supposedly love?

He's just trying to get into your head, Nya.

Well I'm gonna get into his head with my fists!

Wyldfyre, your anger's not helping.

It's helping me stay angry!

This battle is ramping up to be legendary!

During this fight, three... Count 'em, one, two, three.

...holographic gems will appear randomly.

The goal, whoever gets the most, wins!

Yeah! Go, Nya!

[dramatic music]

[both grunting]

One gem for Nokt, and a big, fat zip for Nya!

But the game's just started! Anything could happen!

I was expecting the other member of your family.

You think Kai was tough?

You've never seen me when I'm mad.

[dramatic music continues]

Hiyah!

And just like that, it's a tie game!

Whoot-whoot-stang-zoot!

Get your Rising Dragon ready, Nya,

he's gonna Shatterspin!

Yes! Destroy him so hard, Nya!

But not angrily. A friendly destroy.

-[dramatic music continues] -[both grunting]

[crowd cheering]

And Nokt is victorious!

What an amazing, incredible battle!

What? But the gem disappeared right before I was gonna get it!

Sorry! Rules of the game!

Okay, I know this doesn't look good.

Yeah, it looks super terrible.

-Thanks, Wyldfyre. -You're welcome.

But Ninja never quit, right?

Up next: Sora, Elemental Master of Tech and Balance!

Versus Cinder, Elemental Master of Smoke and now Heat!

[growling]

[both grunting]

I've been waiting for a rematch since the Wyldness, girl.

This isn't just a test of Elemental Skills.

It's a challenge of the mind!

The competitors must solve these puzzles,

including a swing over a fiery pit!

You were right.

Sora admitted she used her powers and let me think I did it myself.

You'll see I'm right about a great many things, Arin.

Jay Walker worked at the Administration.

I think he knows where my parents disappeared to.

Any information Jay Walker has, I also have.

[bell dinging]

[both grunting]

Only a few ways these could work.

You always fall for that trick!

You think I'm not prepared?

[gong ringing]

There are like a gazillion patterns to this one!

Ugh.

Let's try something simple.

One, one, one, one, one.

-[both grunting] -[Cinder yells]

Sora wins!

[all cheering]

Huh?

What are you? Where are you taking me?

There's nothing here.

If I had my powers, I'd make an earth bridge

and follow you to whatever is out there...

Another Monastery?
