You had taken a walk to the park late at night, on the Washington Square, when suddenly Triceratons landed there, placing the black hole generator right on the fountain. After the Triceraton soldiers had seen you, they captured you and took you to their ship, the Triceraton Mother Ship, where you'll see their captain, Mozar. After they teleported to the ship with you, you were face to face with one of the highest ranked Triceratons.
"Ah, greetings Earth creature. As you know, we will destroy your planet to get rid of the Kraang from hiding there from us. However, you will be kept by Emperor Zanmoran's orders. Fighting against us is useless and will result in excruciating pain. Understood?" Captain Mozar asks and looks at you curious. He states that a Triceraton emperor already made the decision of destroying the planet.
