(The Hunters and Iron Baron have Kai, Jay, Zane, and Amethyst as their prisoners. They are pushed to the ground.)
Kai: His throne. I already hate him.
Iron Baron: (He walks up to them and taps Zane's head.) They don't look as I imagined. (The Hunters laugh.) Where did you find them?
Heavy Metal: To the south. They were building a fortification.
Jay: That's pretty generous. Heh. More like a rickety shack. But after losing everything, who am I to complain?
Heavy Metal: Did I say you could speak?
(Iron Baron walks around the prisoners.)
Daddy No Legs: We took them by surprise. There may be more.
Iron Baron: Is this true? Are there more of your kind?
Amethyst: Our kind?
Zane: No. We're alone.
Jet Jack: Then tell us, who do these diapers belong to? (She holds them up.)
Kai: Oh, those are Jay's. Tell 'em, Jay.
Jay: Oh. I have a weak bladder. (The Hunters laugh.)
Iron Baron: See how they lie? See their treachery? They cannot help it. It's in their nature.
Amethyst: Our nature?
Zane: (Whispering) Do not reveal anything.
Iron Baron: But there is one whom you cannot deceive.
Kai: Okay, now, take it easy there, Captain. Let's not do anything—
Iron Baron: Throw the Oni into The Pit!
Hunters: Slab knows! Slab knows! Slab knows! Slab knows! Slab knows! Slab knows! Slab knows! Slab knows! Slab knows! Slab knows!
Amethyst: Oh no.
Kai: Oni? You're making a mistake!
Zane: We are not Oni!
Jay: Well one of us is.
Amethyst: Jay, be quite.
Jay: Okie dokie. Off we go. (Daddy No Legs lead the ninja into Dead's End. Hunters stop working to stare at them.)
Kai: They think we're Oni.
Jay: I know, how funny. And here we thought they were Oni. But they're not to far off. (They see a Fire Dragon forced to provide fire to blacksmiths.)
Zane: Their entire culture appears to be built around the hunting of dragons and exploiting their Elemental Powers.
Kai: Then it's a good thing we kept our identities secret.
Amethyst: But I don't think my secret identity will be a secret for long.
Arkade: (He walks up to Zane.) Ah! Welcome to the Dead's End! May I have your parts when you expire?
Kai: At least we know what to call this dump. But what do you make of this "Slab?" And what's "the Pit?"
Jay: Duh. It's most likely an arena. A brutal tradition but exciting nonetheless. I for one can't wait!
Dragon Hunter #1: Hey! Hey! Hey! What do you think—(He argues and fights with another hunter.)
Kai: This isn't good, Jay. It's bad. And it's only gonna get worse.
