As the Destiny's Bounty 2.0 flies towards the Wailing Alps, Jay, Kai, and Zane practice Airjitzu by attempting to grab a flag atop the ship's mast, while Aria, Ronin, and Wu watch. 

"the new armor on our suits are too heavy" Kai complained

"They're deepstone, it'll keep you from becoming possessed" Wu reminded them

"instead of calling it airjitzu I think we should call it something cooler" Jay said

"Like what?" Kai questioned

"Something stupid" Aria said

"Cyclon-do" Jay said as he tried to get the flag, he reaches the flag and misses.

"called it" Aria said

The ninja was all called in for a briefing, Zane's voice sounded weird.

"I changed Zane's voice to make him sound like a pirate" Jay laughed and was joined by Kai

"The second clue is the Sword of Sanctuary, hidden in the Cloud Kingdom" Misako said

"The only way to reach it is through the Blind Man's Eye, which can only be reached by scaling Ninjago's tallest mountain, the Wailing Alps" Wu notes

As the Bounty reaches the mountain, the Ninja suit up in their respective mechs; Kai in the Fire Mech, Jay in the Electro Mech, Cole in his Earth Mech, and Zane in his new Titan Mech.

"yeah I don't have a mech" Aria shrugged

"I don't think I should go, I don't really know airjitzu and i'm a ghost, I won't be much help" Cole said sadly

"Just come alone, you'll never know what you can do" Arria said

"Alright" Cole agreed

As the others land, Cole lands face first since he could hardly control his mech.

"Keep them together Aria, be careful" Misako said

"Will do" Aria said before jumping out of the Bounty and landing on her feet

"So how are you going to get up the mountain?" Jay asked her

"Just don't freak out" Aria said before she closed her eyes and her body was surrounded by purple light, the ninja looked away and when they looked back they just stared

"...Aria just turned into a wolf" Kai said

"I already knew she could do that" Cole shrugged

Aria walked infront of their mechs and moved her head in the direction of up

"alright guys you heard her, let's go" Cole said

On the way up, Jay and Kai discuss the power and importance of the Sword of Sanctuary: after a while, Kai asks Zane how much further they have to go which he replies is at least 100,000 steps. Jay, who is counting each step, soon notices a Walliper and calls it a goat.
