The Anacondrai Cultists chant as the captive Elemental Masters are brought in.

"Bring in the prisoners," Clouse ordered

"So the ninja were right. This was never about any of us winning the tournament. This was always about something sinister." Tuner said

"We tried to tell you, but you wouldn't listen" Kai hissed

"What gave that away? Was it his cult following, or the giant snake head?" Shade asked

"I think its both" Mai replied. 

"We've been fighting each other for so long, it took us all losing to finally pull us together." Neuro uttered as Jay starts humming.

"Too bad it's too late." Fai sighed

Kai glares at Jay "Why are you humming? You do know they're about to take our powers?"

Jay keeps humming "Since these cursed shackles have blocked our powers, I choose to use the power of positive thinking. Lloyd and Anna will come save us. You just wait."

Skylor turns her head away from Kai. 

"Go ahead and look away, but you know as well as I do after he takes our powers, he's still gonna need yours." Kai spat

Skylor looks back at him "You don't understand. My father gets everything he wants. I had no choice."

Kai narrowed his eyes at her "Just tell me one thing. Was it his idea to make me fall for you, or yours? Because it worked."

Skylor gasps and then smiles.

"Lock 'em down." Zugu yells and the elemental masters are forced on their knee's 

"All rise for Master Chen!" The Cultist stop chanting and stand still

Chen uses Gravity to levitate his throne "Look at me. I'm floating." 

He almost falls, making the Cultists gasp.

"I got it, I got it. I just got distracted by how awesome this place looks. Well done, Clouse. You've really set the mood. And look at this. Soon, I'll have more power. It's good to be me." Chen said

"You may have us, but you still don't have the Green and Pink Ninja." Jay said

"And the master of Crystal" Tuner added

Chen rolled his eyes "Ah, yes. I bet right now they'll swoop down to save you in the very last moment and teach me a valuable lesson. Well, I'll wait. I love lessons." he leaps back into his chair as they wait for them.

"Any minute now." Jay said

"I don't think their coming," Fai uttered

"That's enough. I'm bored. But here's a lesson: don't be a sore loser. Only one can remain!" 

He steals their powers. "The power is mine. All mine!"

Jay looks down disappointed "He never came."

"Take them to the factory." Chen says

Skylor pleaded with her father "Father, please, spare Kai. I've seen inside his head. He's different. He can help you."

Chen grinned "You like the boy, don't you? If it will make you happy. Leave the red one."

The Cultist nod and take them to the factory, only leaving Kai

-

Lloyd, Nya, Anna, and Garmadon watch the palace at a distance.

 "He knows we're coming. But we can't just hide here and do nothing." Lloyd complained

"We have to wait until nightfall. There's too many." Anna said
