However, Ayla is now in the form of pure electromagnetic energy. Lightning Lad must find a way to save Alya before Imperiex can harness this energy for his own diabolical use. Lightning Lad is voiced by Andy Milder ('Weeds'), while James Arnold Taylor ('The Boondocks,' 'Star Wars: Clone Wars') and Kari Wahlgren ('Ben 10') voice Mekt and Ayla, respectively.
