Long Summary

The Joe team flies to Mongolia tracking Snake-Eyes' signal. Flint flying the helicopter is shot down. After crash landing the Red Ninja Clan attacks.

Storm Shadow believing they are allies tries to prevent the Joes from attacking, but he is then himself attacked by T'JBang, the current leader of the Red Ninja Clan. As Clan members Masaaki, Kohai, Kaiju and Kaihu continue their fight with the Joes, Stalker, Storm Shadow and Kamakura are separated from the rest of team and fall down into a small canyon.

Shipwreck, Roadblock, Flint and Scarlett are all then captured. T'JBang begins to talk to them. He explains that the Red Ninja Clan has had a long conflicted history filled with mistakes, bad judgments and misguided alliances. Scarlett shouts at him asking what has he done with Snake-Eyes. His answer is "what was necessary".

As he continues to talk about shaping the world and his transformation from just a Joe to the leader of the Red Ninja Clan, he introduces his newest weapon, Snake-Eyes, now wearing red.

Snake-Eyes, mysterious brought back from the dead, with according to T'JBang, a few modifications and a bit of new programming, is sent to find and deal with Storm Shadow, Kamakura and Stalker. As he leaves Scarlett screams at him "Come back to me".

At the Rock, GI Joe's secret base, General Colton is asking Sparks about the reservist list. Sparks is having trouble tracking some of them down because their tracking signals are not responding. Now, Gen Colton is concerned about Major Bludd's claim that he killed a Joe.

As Storm Shadow, Stalker and Kamakura climb out of the canyon they are meet by Snake-Eyes.

Stalker is knocked out; Storm Shadow's arm is cut leaving Kamakura as their protection. He attacks saying "You are not my master, you fight like my master, but you cannot be. There is a sickness in your spirit." As they fight Snake-Eyes is able to stab Kamakura, but just before a death blow Storm Shadow steps in to save him. And now Storm Shadow and Snake-Eyes square off against each other.

Back in the room with the captured Joes, T'JBang continues, "This has been a long time coming. The ascension of power can be a painful process. But also a magnificent one. You look at me and see a one time ally, but there is more here then what you see. And with all the pieces now in place let the final reckoning begin."

Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow start their fight.
