The tomb door exploded open with the help from Nya and Jay completing the puzzle on the front. All the ninja were pushed back including clutch powers who was there just to be recognised by the public again. What appeared from the dust was a tall lanky teal snake holding onto a sceptre, "where is the treacherous deceiver?" It hissed.
"Who" Lloyd asked recovering from the explosion, "the boy who locked me in this tomb so long ago! He must meet my revenge!" It hissed once more. "Who are you? And who is this boy you're talking about!" Jay said helping Nya up, "I am the great Aspheera! And you must all bring me this boy!" Aspheera yelled. "She appears to be referring to the boy in the story? Just tell her that we do not know" Zane said, "uhh Aspheera, we don't know who this boy is?" Lloyd said
"Lies!!" She attacked head on, they all joined to create their own spinjitsu swirls before being meet with Aspheera's own spinjitsu. "She knows spinjitsu!" Cole called out, "how!!" Jay replied. They continued to fight, Clutch had found a way to escape the fight without any of them knowing, the fighting continued with out him. Every time the ninja charged at her she would immediately push them back, over and over, the ninja would never give up.
"You there! You're a fire master! I will take your flame!" Aspheera pointed at Kai.
Kai looked at his hands know that is she succeeded he wouldn't make it out alive, he needed to save his friends even if it meant letting up his life. "Sure on one condition!" Kai called out, all the ninja looked at him in confusion, they all also new what that meant to Kai. "Hmmmm, what is that condition young boy?" She hissed at him from afar, "you can have all of my power, if you let my friends leave un injured!" Kai yelled at her.
Aspheera looked at Kai then his friends who were stunned, "ok we have a deal!" She hissed and held out her staff. "WHAT KAI NO!" Nya called to her brother, "please don't do this kai, we can find another way to get out of this mess" Lloyd called out. Kai turned around at looked at them all "please guys just let me do this, I have always caused so mush trouble due to my impulsive nature and anger, this is my chance to make it up to you all" Kai said with a soft smile on his face.
He looked at Cole who had started to cry, "I'm sorry Cole, but I need to do this!" Kai said before turning back to face Aspheera. "Ok im ready, bring it on Aspheera" Kai's called out to her, "before I start I need to make sure this isn't another silly little trap" she hissed. Using her powers Aspheera lifted each of the ninja besides Kai and chained them to the wall before returning to Kai and lifting him up as well. Kai looked at his his friends who were all calling out for him to stop, just wanting Kai to stop with his plan or reveal that secretly he was going to to attack Aspheera while she was distracted.
He smiled at them, "I'm sorry friends, but for you all to get out of here safely this needs to happen, I love you all" he looked at his baby sister and younger brother he had taken under his wing so long ago, and finally at Cole, the one person he could trust with everything, his yang. Aspheera began to suck the elemental power out of him, Kai called out in pain, the longer he was up there the pain began to lessen and he started to feel nothing.
Kai's life started to flash past him, his early childhood years with his parents and baby sister, when his parents disappeared. And finally his favourite memory rushed through, all the years he trained and became a ninja. He smiled, kai loved all theses memories, he realised after watching all these memories flow that he had become something he could be proud of. "Man.....I had a good life....huh" kai said weekly, eventually kai had been sucked of everything he had. Aspheera let kai fall to the ground in a slump, "ahhh, much better, thank you young fire master" Aspheera said growing flames from all over.
She slithered out, smiling evilly at the ninja staring at Kai's slump body. Minutes went by and Kai's body stayed lifeless on the ground, the ninja all stuck on the wall. "Come on....we just need to get down.... and we can take Kai.....to the hospital" Nya said midst pulling on the chains holding her up, "yeah....we...can.....do.....this" Cole said joining her. "Nya, im sorry but, I don't think he-" Jay said head down trying to cover his tears before being interrupted by Nya, "DONT.... Kai hast to survive... he hast...to" Nya said slumping down.
"Lloyd?..... Do you have a plan to get out?" Zane said softly lifting his head to look at Lloyd, Lloyd stayed quiet, "Zane" Lloyd said in a quiet tone, "could you scan Kai form here?". They all went quiet, "he is still breathing but it is very shallow" Zane said. All of them looked at him and began helping Nya and Cole to get out from the Cain. "Hold on tight!" Cole called out before he summoned his lava arms and pulled his chain clear of the wall, which had a chain reaction and began to pull the rest off with him.
They all land on the rough ground below and once recovered from the fall rushes over to the lifeless body of their friend. "KAI!" Nya screamed picking up the body of her brother, Kai looked at her, "guess...I..have..more..time"Kai said weakly. "Man.. this..is..crazy"Kai giggled, "Kai's stop talking we need to get you some help!" Lloyd said grabbing his hand. "Lloyd.. buddy.. I don't think..they could.. help me know" Kai said gripping Lloyds hand, "but.. what I want you all to do....is to stop Aspheera......for me" Kai said his voice beginning to fade.
"No no no no no Kai please don't leave, I can't do this without you" Nya cried over his body. "Hey.. you will be.. fine.. you have Lloyd.. and everyone else" Kai said looking at everyone, he held his hand out for Cole to grab, "Cole..im sorry for..leaving you aswell..I...love..... you......." kai smiled at him and went limp im his hand. "You asshole, why did you have to confess on your death bed" Cole held onto his hand started to cry along side the other ninja.
"Ok, we need to go stop Aspheera" Zane said, "but..we can't just leave him here" Nya grieved. "Here" Cole said standing up, he picked Kai's limp lifeless body up into his arms bridal style and began to walk out the same way they came in.
