*Lloyd,Blossom and Zane examine the sphere*

Lloyd: This place.....I feel strange.

Zane: This sphere itself is not the energy source. But my scans indicate the immense power is inside of it.

Blossom:  *Gasps* Is that....a dragon?

Zane: If it is,it is larger than any dragon previously recorded.These machines are how they are attempting to drain this dragon's power.

Blossom: I thought we freed all the dragons.I had no idea Imperium imprisoned something like this......We have to get this dragon free!

Zane: If we do,I am uncertain how we will get it and the other dragons out of Imperium.We do not have the power source we need.

Lloyd: We're ninja.We'll find a way.This dragon is coming with us. Let's see if we can unlock this thing.

*They approach the sphere on a hovering platform.*

???: Do not free me.

Blossom: *Gasps* !!!

Zane: The dragon appears to be speaking telepathically.

Blossom:  *To the Source Dragon* You're imprisoned. We can help you!

Source Dragon: The capture of a is not a simple process. In their act of confining me,the Imperium has threatened the very fabric of existence.The realm world has tentatively stabilized since my capture.To free me now,at this moment,could destabilize it once again and result in total destruction.

Lloyd: But we can't just leave you here.

Source Dragon: Can you not comprehend the damage that would do to your world?

Zane: He appears determined not to be free.

Lloyd: Yeah,I'm getting that feeling too. And without a power source, we can't get the other dragons out of Imperium either.

Source Dragon: As an elemental master,you have contained and transferred dragon power before.

Blossom: Huh....? How do you know that?

Source Dragon: I am a Source Dragon.

Lloyd: Yeah,sorry,we,uh....haven't heard of you before.

Source Dragon: I have enough power in a single claw to shatter Imperium into pieces...But, mystically imprisoned,I can do no such thing.However, elemental master, I can give you power to act as my conduit.

Lloyd: Like I did with the Matriarch Dragon? Then I could power up the portal and free the others!!

Source Dragon: But taking my power is dangerous.Your life may change forever.

Lloyd: If it will save those dragons,that's a risk I'm willing to take.

Source Dragon: And that is exactly why you are capable of being a conduit.Approach the sphere.

*Lloyd reaches out and touches the sphere. His eyes glow, and he finds himself sucked through a vortex into a mystical land with symbols in the sky....Then he falls and lands in a desert,a massive ninja graveyard before him.Finally,a giant Source Dragon blasts him with energy."
