On the way to exiling Vex following his defeat, the Ninja encountered and fought a pair of wolf monsters in the outskirts of the Never-Realm. After defeating the wolf monsters, the ninja discovered that Vex had disappeared into thin air. Kataru recalled another legend of a giant griffin and supposed that like the wolf monsters, it too had thawed following the end of the Long Winter. Elsewhere, Vex was indeed in the griffin's nest where he fearfully wondered to himself if the griffin brought him here as food or if it somehow mistook him for an egg.
Akita and Lloyd managed to rescue Vex from the nest but attracted the griffin's attention in the process. Kai and Jay attacked it with Fire and Lightning respectively but discovered to their annoyance that the griffin was immune to Elemental Powers. To evade its gaze, the ninja huddled under their white, makeshift snowboards and camouflaged with the surrounding snow. Confused as to where its prey had gone, the griffin circled around a few more times before giving up and flying away.
