Arin: It seems strange now, but remember when Ninjago was the only thing on the map? When it was our entire world? I used to spend all my time trying to be like my heroes, the ninja. Practicing their moves, learning their poses. I wanted to be just like them. To protect everyone in Ninjago. To ride dragons into adventure and mythical realms. Mysterious lands that could only exist in legend. But I quickly found out those legendary realms are very real. And I was about to lose everyone that was important to me. My neighborhood must have been the very center of the Merge. But back then, we didn't know what to call it. It was just chaos. That's when my heroes, the ninja, arrived! We were in so much danger, but I couldn't help but be excited. And that's when it happened. As I saw my small neighborhood disappear and a new city show up on the horizon, I realized I had witnessed the Merge firsthand. The moment all the mysterious realms I had only heard about merged with Ninjago, for reasons no one's been able to figure out. I survived, but I was alone. My parents and everyone I ever knew had vanished. With my parents and home gone, I had to make a new life for myself. Before, everyone I knew looked like me. Now I walk the streets with skeleton people, buy food from snail people, sell pies to frog people! And since the ninja disappeared, I realized it's up to me to carry on their legendary tradition.

(It is revealed that Arin is telling the story to some dogs in a junkyard at night.)

Sora: Arin, not to insult the dreams of my best new friend, but ... you are so not a ninja.

Olivia: Sora, let him dream for once, plus remember for tomorrow morning Arin.

Arin: How would you know, Sora? You didn't grow up with them like I did. All I need is a master to train me and don't worry Liv I know and plus Sora Olivia's parents are Ninjas! NINJAS!

Sora: Sure! Ah, one problem. There are no ninja masters around anymore and we don't know which Ninja.

Olivia: She got you there plus it's Lloyd and Calypso Garmadon.

Arin: Hey, uh, have you found what we need yet? I can only distract these dogs from making noise for so long. Uh, I don't have that many stories to tell.

Sora: Give me a second. (She picks up an item.) Boom! And we didn't even set off the —

(The alarm sounds.)

Security Bots: Halt! Halt! Halt!

Olivia: Oh come on!

Arin: We should be leaving now.

Sora: I always like how you think.

(They flee from the robots.)

Arin: Oh, there's got to be an easier way to get mechanical parts!

Sora: There is! It's called "having money". Which is not exactly our situation.

Arin: After tomorrow it might be!

Security Bots: Halt! Halt! Halt! (They shoot at the Trio.)

Arin: Alright, then! Ninja, —

Sora: You're not a ninja!

Arin: Wannabe ninja, go! (He kicks away the robots with Spinjitzu.)

Olivia: It's getting better Arin keep it up!

(Arin smiled softly with a hint of blush)

Arin: Thanks Liv!

Sora: Rough landing, but you're getting better at that. Let's go! Can you make a distraction?

Arin: I don't think these bots want to hear my story about the Merge!

Sora: Then do something else!

Arin: (He swings around with his grappling hook to distract the robots, while Sora hacks them.) Up here! You! Garbage can!

Olivia: We're over here!!!

Security Bots: Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance!

Arin: I will never get over how quickly you can hack stuff like that.

Sora: What can I say? I'm just naturally good at tech stuff. It's been like that since I was a kid.

Arin: We might not have money, but I'm sure the owners of this place would love one of my delicious homemade pies, right? As payment for the gear we're borrowing.

Sora: Who doesn't love pie? (They leave a pie behind and exit the junkyard.)

Olivia: I love pie!

Sora: See even Liv loves pie!

Security Bots: Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance!

Olivia: Well I'm gonna go now see you both!

Sora + Arin: Bye!

(Olivia was in her tree house making Miso Soup and smiled and put the soup in a bowl and grabbed a spoon and she placed it on the wooden table and she looked at picture of her when she was little, Calypso and Lloyd)

Olivia: お母さん、お父さんがいなくて寂しいです。また会えるといいですね。(Translate: I miss you, Mom and Dad. I hope we'll see each other again.)

(Olivia started to eat her soup and hopefully one day she will meet them again)

Olivia: And all done! (She cleans up her up her bowl and walked to her bedroom and lay on her bed and sighed) Please let's hopefully Arin and Sora win the race...

(At the Crossroads, mechs line up for the Mech Master 5000.)

Alfonzo: Last call to register for the Mech Master 5000! The greatest race —

Sora: In the history of the Crossroads! And we're here to win it.

Olivia: Hey guys! 

Arin: Liv! (The duo hugged before ran to catch up with Sora)

Alfonzo: Sora! Arin! Olivia! Always happy to peep you three wild scamps. Up top!

Sora: Good to see you too, Mr. Frohicky.

Alfonzo: Wait, that's your mech? Oh ho, no offense, Sora, but, uh, not one of your more impressive builds, is it, hmm?

Sora: It's easily underestimated. Just like us.

Alfonzo: Sure, but I've got top mechs from around the merged realms here. Like an Underworld Mech.

Bone Guard: Freaky leapy.

Alfonzo: There's even a ... uh, uh ... that thing.

Lobbo: (He enters his mech.) Lobbo Lobbo.

Arin: Oh, that's Lobbo! He's a good guy. But, uh, never ask him about his mom. It's a ... it's a very touchy subject.

Olivia: Yeah never!

Alfonzo: Plus, all the regulars. It could get pretty vicious. Maybe you should sit today's race out? (He sighs.) Fine. Then ante up! (He sniffs the air and sees Arin holding out a pie.) I know you're not trying to pay your registration fees with baked goods again.

Arin: So you don't want a fresh pie, filled with roasted snowberries from the Never-Realm? Fine, I guess we'll just have to toss it. Maybe the dogs are hungry. Or maybe the raccoons?

Alfonzo: Well, it'd be a shame to just throw it out. (He gives in and takes the pie.) Fine! Line up, and let me guess that Livvy isn't playing?

Olivia: Nope I'm not I just want to cheer for them!

(Olivia, Arin and Sora push their mech into place.)

Kreel: Ha! They'll let anyone into these races, won't they?

Sora: At least we build our own gear, Kreel. We don't need a team of servants doing the work for us.

Kreel: They aren't servants! They're friend-ish people who work for me. They're here to cheer when I crush you! Like last time. And the time before, and, checks notes ... (She gasps dramatically.) Every single time. You kids don't learn.

Arin: Oh, we learn. But we just don't give up.

Olivia: Yeah! We will never give up!

Sora: And I might've designed a bit of an upgrade since the last race. (She operates the mech, which rises to full height.) C'mon, Arin. Let's get our fuel couplings attached while Kreel contemplates her impending loss.

Kreel: (She laughs.) I'm not worried. (She whispers to a Whack Rat.) But just in case, loosen their cooling cable while they're gone. When they hit their turboboost, their engine will overheat and explode. (She laughs again.)

Olivia: Kreel! What the heck that's cheating!

Kreel: Oh sorry, mhm here's the deal, you don't say anything and I won't tell Arin about your love for him, plus who wanted to be with a freak like you.

(Olivia froze and looked down before walking off and she got in her seat for the race)

Olivia: Kreel I hate her... (Then the race started and Olivia cheered for Arin and Sora when she heard a dragon) That's a dragon noise! A dragon is here! (She got over the race track and ran and saw Arin and Sora on the ground) HEY! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY FRIENDS!

Ras: Great another one.

(Olivia growls and then her hands light green and she blasted light green enegry and then she did Spinjitzu but Ras grabbed her neck)

Ras: Weak like the other two. Don't worry we'll bring you and your friends somewhere.

Olivia: Uh oh...

(On the train, Olivia, Arin and Sora sit together, both handcuffed.)

Arin: What do you think they'll do to us?

Sora: Whatever it is, they'll do worse to that dragon.

Arin: Really?

Sora: The Claws of the Imperium come from Imperium, same as me. And Imperium runs entirely on dragon power. With all these merged realms, I'm sure they're hunting dragons everywhere now.

Arin: But they say dragon power is safe.

Olivia: Yeah.

Sora: Safe for who? You saw the look in that dragon's eyes. It wanted to be free. Just like I did.

Arin: So, uh, I've known you for a while now, and you've always been pretty good with tech, but...

Sora: I have no idea.

Arin: You turned pieces of the SA Mark 01 into a flying mech, in midair!

Sora: Yeah. That was weird, right?

Arin: Well, that's one word for it. Other words would be amazing, impossible, defying all logic or reason!

Sora: It was that dragon. I could feel it awaken something in me. Some kind of power.

Arin: Like the Elemental Powers the ninja had! Powers I've dreamed of having. Water, Fire, Crytsal, Ice...

Sora: Not everything is tied to your lost heroes, you know.

Olivia: Plus I got mine powers it was like my dads!

Arin: Yeah and you also did Spinjitzu, a perfect one!!

Sora: I got to say I'm shocked that we both get elemental powers on the same day.

Arin: But if I lose hope that the ninja could come back, then I lose hope my parents could come back. Hope is the only thing the Merge didn't take from me.

Sora: Well, hope won't be enough anymore. We can't build you a new ninja monastery from an Imperium Prison.

Arin: It's called the Monastery of Spinjitzu. But you're right. The dream's over, isn't it?

(They hear shouting through the roof of the train.)

Claw Hunter #1: Hey! What —

Claw Hunter #2: Wait, aren't you ... no way!

Olivia: What's going on up there?!

(The metal grate on the ceiling is torn away. Lloyd emerges.)

Arin: (in an awed whisper) The Green Ninja!

Olivia: Dad!

Lloyd: I think that mask belongs to me.
