The camera pans down to Arin posing on top of a gate, while his parents cheer him on.

"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. Out of all the heroes of the Justice League, it was the Ninja who I loved the most. 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 and parallel universes. Mysterious lands that could only exist in legend." Arin narrating.

The sky splits apart behind him as rifts between realms and Earths are seen.

"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."

As the rifts in the skies open, many people were floating away in the zero gravity chaos.

"Arin, get inside! It's too dangerous out there!" Arin's mother shouts to him.

Arin struggles to get to his house as the wind makes it hard for him to reach his parents. He screams as he is sucked into the Merge.

"Arin!" Arin's mother shouts.

Arin is then stuck floating in the air along with everything else has been dragged up into the sky. As he floats, Lloyd manages to grab him to the Bounty.

"That's when my heroes, the Ninja, arrived! We were in so much danger, but I couldn't help but be excited." Arin narrating.

"Hey kid! You get lost?" Lloyd asked.

Arin looks shocked as he see the Ninja with their Justice League friends helping them. As a cargo crate was about to hit them, a blue ninja mech sliced it in half, piloted by Jay. Along with him were Eris and Razar who have their own mechs.

"Jay, the Lightning Ninja! Eris, the Eagle Ninja! Razar, the Raven Ninja!"

The three Ninja are seen flying their mechs with Supergirl, Green Lantern Jessica Cruz, and Optimus Prime. They continue to slice their way through every debris and object heading towards the Destiny's Bounty.

"Kai, Fire Ninja! Cragger, Crocodile Ninja! Bladvic, Bear Ninja!"

The three Ninja with Wolf, Snake, Drago, Flash, Batwoman, Mario, and Luigi blasting things away on the Bounty.

"Cole, Earth Ninja! Worriz, Wolf Ninja! Rogon, Rhino Ninja!"

The three Ninja along with DK, Bowser, Rykarr, Aarghaumont help in getting the people out from the crates crushing them. Cole lifts a cargo crate off Rick and Linda Mitchell. Worriz uses his Plasma abilities to get Thunk Crood out of a crate. Rogon blasted a boulder at an incoming object. Aarghaumont carries Ralph and Vanellope on his shoulders with DK carrying Milton Gumbo the Crocodile on his back. Rykarr carries Bluey and Bingo in his hands.

The strong muscle heroes then threw the people on the slide of ice that Zane created for them to reach the Bounty.

"Zane, Ice Ninja!"

Then a glob of water and plants catches the people as it shows Nya, Gorzan, and Lou Shark using their powers to make the people landed safety on the Destiny's Bounty.

"Nya, Water Ninja! Gorzan, Gorilla Ninja!"

The Ninja and superheroes continued their work to get as many people on the Destiny's Bounty as possible. Arin stared in awe as he saw Lloyd and Laval with the Green Arrow.

"Lloyd, the legendary Green Ninja! Laval, the Lion Ninja!"

The Destiny's Bounty then anchors to the ground as the Ninja and the Justice League work on getting the people to safety.

"Hold on, kid." Lloyd said to Arin and he picks him up.

He slides down the chain as he sets Arin on the ground.

"Green Ninja, my parents are in that storm! You gotta save them!" Arin said.

"That's what we're here for!" Lloyd said.

Arin smiles as Lloyd waves goodbye as he and his team go back into the action.

"And that's when it happened." Arin narrating.

The rift explodes and his neighborhood disappears. Arin then ended up in a remote area with new cities and places beyond.

"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 and some of parallel Earths of the Multiverse 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."

"Mom? Dad?" Arin shouts.

He looks up to see Lloyd's hood floating down from the sky, and he reaches up to catch it.

"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 and the Justice League disappeared, I realized it's up to me to carry on their legendary tradition." Arin narrated as he puts Lloyd's hood on.

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

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

"I also agree with Sora. I've actually seen and fought with them in the wars of Azeroth before the Merge. You don't have their skill set yet." Rexxar added.

"How would you know, Sora and Rexxar? You didn't grow up with them like I did. All I need is a master to train me." Arin said.

"Sure! Ah, one problem. There are no ninja masters around anymore." Sora said.

"Same with the entire Justice League. Flash, Green Arrow, White Canary, Black Wolf, Optimus Prime, Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman... all of them vanished after the Merge." Rexxar said.

"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." Arin said as the dogs look at him.

"Give me a second." Sora said as she picks up an item. "Boom! And we didn't even set off the —"

The alarm sounds. As the alarm goes off with the dogs barking, security bots show up.

"Halt! Halt! Halt!" Security Bots shouts.

"We should be leaving now." Arin said.

"Agreed!" Rexxar said.

"I always like how you think." Sora told Arin.

They flee from the robots.

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

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

"After tomorrow it might be!" Rexxar said.

"Halt! Halt! Halt!" Security Bots shouts as they shoot at the three as they take cover.

"Alright, then! Ninja, —" Arin began.

"You're not a ninja!" Sora reminded him.

"Wannabe ninja, go!" Arin shouts.

He dodges the blasts as he jumps up and kicks away the robots with Spinjitzu., but didn't stick the landing.

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

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

"Then do something else!" Rexxar tells him.

Arin swings around with his grappling hook to distract the robots.

"Up here! You! Garbage can!" Arin teased.

As he does, Sora goes to hack them. They then jump back as Sora's hacking began to work.

As he does, Sora goes to hack them. They then jump back as Sora's hacking began to work.

"Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance!" Security Bots chant as they dance.

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

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

"It's a gift, kid." Rexxar said.

"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." Arin said as he placed a pie out.

"Who doesn't love pie?" Sora said.

They leave a pie behind and exit the junkyard as Security Bots continue to dance.

"Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance!" Security Bots chant.

Arin, Sora, and Rexxar make their way through the Crossroads. As they do, they pass many people. Like Whack Rats, Serpentine, Merlopians, Orcs, Manotaurs, Dinotrux, and Cybertronians.

"Hey, Mrs. R." Sora said to her who was with Mr. Hornet.

"How's the wasp milk today?" Arin asked her.

"Hey George." Rexxar said to the Hippy Dozeratops who was with a Manotaur.

"Oop, watch your step, Newt." Sora said as a Decepticon passed by.

"Wow." Arin said in awe seeing the Crossroads.

They continued to walk through the Crossroads as they saw so many people from all Realms and some of the Parallel Earths. A car nearly hits them, but Arin uses his grappling hook to get them out of the way.

"Hey! Watch where you're going!" Sora shouts.

"Jerk!" Rexxar shouts.

"I still can't get over how amazing the Kingdom of Imperium looks. It's perfect, isn't it?" Arin said.

"Don't believe everything you hear about Imperium. I'm from there, remember? Their idea of "perfect" isn't mine. The Merge slamming it up against Ninjago gave me the perfect chance to get out." Sora said.

"And the perfect chance to meet me and Rexxar! I'd still like to go there someday. Or go anywhere. I've never been out of my old neighborhood. The Crossroads just grew up around the area where my house used to be." Arin said.

"You want to experience other places? Look around! Why go anywhere when the best of all the realms and Earths of the Multiverse moved here to the Crossroads? For example, me and Rexxar." Sora said as they looked at the view.

"I'm glad you came here, Sora and Rexxar. You're my BFFs, my fam. But some of us are only here because we had nowhere else to go." Arin said.

"I understand, but you have to admit. Having our own penthouse is pretty cool." Sora said.

"It may not be the Wild Forests of Azeroth but it's fine." Rexxar said.

They look towards the top of a building.

"Race you to the top!" She said as she starts climbing a ladder.

Arin smirked as he uses his grappling hook to overtake Sora and Rexxar.

"Last one there's a rotten egg!" Arin shouts.

"Hey, that's cheating!" Sora shouts as Rexxar laughs.

"See ya! Wouldn't want to be ya!" Arin shouts.

"Careful, Arin! You're going too—" Sora shouts as it was too late when he crashed.

"Dang it!" Arin cried.

"Fast." Rexxar finished.

They enter their penthouse. Arin then takes out a freshly baked pie out of an oven. Rexxar sharpens his axes with his Gundark named Grug who has become Rexxar's new loyal companion after losing his other companions due to the Merge.

"Yes! The SA Mark 01 is gonna crush in the Mech Master 5000!" Sora said as she finished her project.

"Tomorrow's race is the biggest prize pot of all time. If we win ..." Arin says.

"When we win." Sora corrected.

"Right, right, when we win, we could find ourselves a real place to live. I could build my own monastery and invite everyone else who lost their parents to live with us. To carry on the tradition of the ninja!" Arin said.

"And I could design a real garage and lab. And we wouldn't have to pay for parts with your pies anymore." Sora said.

"Happy you two will have something to look forward to when getting that money. For me, I probably find a more comfortable place in nature to live." Rexxar said.

Suddenly, the ground quakes violently. Building and the area shakes as it slowly stopped.

"Another earthquake? It seems like they're happening more often." Sora sighs.

"That's the third one this week." Rexxar said.

"They never happened at all before the Merge. Hey, do you ever wonder if there's a greater purpose for all this? Like, a reason for the Merge?" Sora wondered.

"The Merge might have taken away everything you had, Arin. But it's given me everything I have. Change can be scary, but it's also a chance for something better." Sora said.

She gazes at the Kingdom of Imperium in the distance. At Imperium, Rapton speaks to Ras.

"The capture was successful?" Ras asked.

"Of course! Transfer will begin first thing in the morning." Rapton said.

"Your overconfidence is a weakness, Rapton. These creatures are dangerous." Ras said.

"Trust me, this thing isn't going anywhere. Don't worry, Lord Ras!" Rapton said.

"Do not disappoint me." Ras said as he turns off the communication link.

"Lord Ras doesn't sound like he's got a lot of faith in us." Claw Hunter said.

"He'' too uptight. We're the best there is at rounding up these animals." Rapton said.

"Ugh, "your overconfidence is a weakness." Rapton imitating Ras. "Lemme tell ya, I've never even heard the word weakness."

"Really? It's a pretty common word." Claw Hunter said.

"No, I... I — I mean, I just don't know what that word means." Rapton said.

"Seriously? I can explain. Weakness: noun, the quality of — argh!" Claw Hunter began to tell as he is kicked away by Rapton.

"Go away." Rapton said. He leaps down and peers into a cell.

"This guy in here, he ain't going nowhere, ain't ya?" He laughs evilly.

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

"Last call to register for the Mech Master 5000! The greatest race —" Alfonzo announced.

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

"Sora! Arin! Rexxar! Always happy to peep you wild scamps. Up top!" Alfonzo said as he hi-fives Sora's hand with his tongue.

"Good to see you too, Mr. Frohicky." Sora said.

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

"It's easily underestimated. Just like us." Sora said.

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

"Freaky leapy." Bone Guard said.

"There's even a ... uh, uh ... that thing." Alfonzo said as he pointed.

"Lobbo Lobbo." Lobbo said as he enters his mech.

"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." Arin said.

"Plus, all the regulars. It could get pretty vicious. Maybe you should sit today's race out?" Alfonzo suggested but the trio refused.

"Fine. Then ante up!" Alfonzo said holding his hand out for the money.

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." Alfonzo said not falling for it again.

"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?" Arin said.

"Well, it'd be a shame to just throw it out." Alfonzo said. "Fine! Line up!"

He gives in and takes the pie with his tongue as he burps out the pie tray.

Arin, Sora, and Rexxar push their mech into place.

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

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

"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 ..." Kreel gasps dramatically. "Every single time. You kids don't learn."

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

"Every time we get stronger." Rexxar said.

"And I might've designed a bit of an upgrade since the last race." Sora said.

She operates the mech, which rises to full height.

"C'mon, Arin and Rexxar. Let's get our fuel couplings attached while Kreel contemplates her impending loss." Sora said.

"I'm not worried." Kreel laughs as she then 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."

At Imperium, one of the container bounces around.

"Hey! Settle down in there!" Rapton shouts as it stopped bouncing.

"Nice try, you animal. You can't —" He laughs.

The container bursts open. A baby dragon escapes as it tries to fly away, only to splat on the ground as it runs off.

"After that thing!" Rapton shouts.

The Mech Master 5000 begins and mechs race through a track.

"Are we winning? I can't see. Tell me we're winning!" Arin shouts.

"Not yet. Get the bumper arms up." Sora shouts.

Competing mechs slam into each other, knocking out competition.

"Lobbo on the move. Lobbo Lobbo." Lobbo said.

"We're coming for you, you fancy-hatted egomaniac!" Sora shouts.

"Prepare to get pounded!" Rexxar shouts.

They encounter a fallen mech.

"Hold on!" Sora shouts.

She makes her mech leap over the debris.

"Phew!" Arin sighed in relief.

"That was close!" Rexxar said.

"Lobbo avoids hazards. Lobbo Lobbo." Lobbo said.

"Hit the turboboost!" Arin shouts.

"No! We can only use it once. Saving it for when we really need it." Sora said.

The SA Mark 01 and Kreel's mech approach the finish line.

"Those punks? Oh no they don't!" Kreel said.

"We're in the straightaway. This has got to be the time to use the turboboost, right? Right?" Ras said.

"Yep! Get ready to roll around in prize money, tossing it in the air, and going "Whee hee!" Sora shouts.

"Aw yeah!" Rexxar shouts.

Suddenly, a metal board flies up from the ground and hits Kreel's mech. Sora screeches to a halt before the dust and gasps when she sees a baby dragon. The baby dragon then runs away from Rapton and the hunters.

"Sora, go! We're so close!" Arin said.

"We gotta go after that dragon." Sora said.

"Dragon? What dragon?" Rexxar said.

"What? We need to win this race!" Arin said.

"Those dragon hunters are the Claws of Imperium. If they catch that dragon ... the things they'll do to him. Trust me, we have to stop them." Sora explained. "Arin, what would the ninja do?"

"Let's save that dragon!" Arin said as he pulls Lloyd hood over his head.

They blast off in the mech.

"Ugh, get up! Get up!" Kreel growled at her mech.

"Lobbo Lobbo." Lobbo said as he glides past Kreel easily and reaches the finish line. "Lobbo wins! Lobbo a success! See, Lobbo's mother? Can a "malfunctioning tin can" do that? Lobbo Lobbo."

A small distance away, the Claw Hunters hit the baby dragon with a blast.

"No need to tell Ras about this minor slip up, understood?" Rapton said.

Arin and Sora arrive.

"Hop on, buddy!" Arin shouts to the dragon as it hops on.

"What? Who are these kids now? Get them!" Rapton shouts as the Claw Hunters shoot at them.

"Uh, looks like we're in another race." Arin said.

"Then good thing we've still got that turboboost ready to go." Sora said.

She presses a button, but the mech goes out of control and falls from a bridge. The baby dragon bumps into her and powers her up.

She reassembles the mech with her new powers.

"Uh, did one of us make that thing explode? I mean, heh, I'm sure it was us, right?" Rapton asked.

"Uh ..." Claw Hunter said.

"Dragons are resilient. Our target will survive. Those kids, not so much. Let's get down there and drag the lizard off the pavement." Rapton said.

Arin, Sora, and Rexxar fly past them in their mech.

"That's different than it was before, right?" Claw Hunter said.

"How did you do all this?" Arin asked.

"I honestly do not know. But now's not the time for questions. It's the time for ..."

They fly upwards as they fight.

"Woo hoo! Now it's my turn." Arin said as he leaps off the mech.

"Self-trained wannabe ninja without a master, go!" He shouts as he does Spinjitzu and is hit by a blaster and barely makes his landing. "Eh, close enough."

Just then, Ras arrives with a shockwave that sends everyone flying.

"Lord Ras! We were just about to —" Rapton says before Ras grabbed him.

"You failed me. I do not like that." Ras growls He drops Rapton.

"Uh, do you know who this guy is?" Arin asked.

"No clue." Sora said.

"He doesn't seem very nice." Rexxar said.

Arin attempts to attack with Spinjitzu, but Ras catches his leg.

"What? How'd you —" Arin said shocked.

Ras then slammed Arin onto the ground.

"Arin!" Sora and Rexxar shout.

Ras destroys the mech, knocking out Sora and Rexxar, then shoots the baby dragon, knocking it unconscious.

"You are just the first. Now, I'm going to hunt down your entire family, wherever they are." Ras said.

He notices a crack of rifts in the sky above.

"Put the prisoners on the train. Quickly! I trust you won't have any more problems." Ras said.

"Yes, Lord Ras. I mean, no, Lord Ras." Rapton stuttered.

On the train, Arin, Sora, and Rexxar sit together, both handcuffed.

"I hate being caged like an animal." Rexxar growled.

"What do you think they'll do to us?" Arin asked.

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

"Really?" Arin said.

"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." Sora said.

"That's just wrong. Hunting Dragons just to use them like fuel." Rexxar said.

"But they say dragon power is safe." Arin said.

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

"I know that feeling. Just like how I was, when the Horde was consumed by bloodlust. I wanted to be free from the corruption." Rexxar said.

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

"I have no idea." Sora said.

"You turned pieces of the SA Mark 01 into a flying mech, in midair!" Arin said impressed and shocked.

"Yeah. That was weird, right?" Sora said.

"Beyond weird if you ask me." Rexxar said.

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

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

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

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

"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." Arin said.

"Heh. Now you sound like Supergirl and her cousin Superman. They were always the beacon of hope. Their chest stood for Hope. Always saying that hope is the light that lifts us out of darkness." Rexxar said.

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

"Ain't that the truth." Rexxar said.

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

They hear shouting through the roof of the train.

"Hey! What —" Claw Hunter #1 shouts.

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

The metal grate on the ceiling is torn away. Lloyd with Green Arrow and Laval emerges.

"The Green Ninja!" Arin whispers in awe.

"I think that mask belongs to me." Lloyd said.
