A/N,
This chapter is going to be long because it is the last episode of the season. Anyway, I'm excited to start writing the next season, so I'll let you read now.

"You must do everything in your power to stop the Great Devourer. Go ninja, go!" Sensei calls out one last time.

The Great Devourer is awakened and slithers out of its cramped black hole in the Earth, it's not even completely out yet when it's head turns away from the dark and ominous clouds that fill the once blue sky, and rather towards Pythor and Sensei. In fear, the ninja and I all take a step back into a more safer area of the lost city as Nya has already left with Lloyd in her Samurai X suit to go figure out a way to stop it.

And that's when the giant serpent takes its first meal in a thousand years. Devouring both Sensei and Pythor, it also takes a giant portion of the ground with them, leaving no chance of survival for either of them.

"No, Sensei." Kai tries to reach out but it's already too late.

The Great Devourer then lifts its head back towards the gloomy sky and releases a roar that could be heard from miles away. But all too soon, it bows it's head in our direction looking at us as if we are it's next meal.

"Uh, maybe if we stand perfectly still-" Jay begins to suggest, only for Kai to interrupt him.

"Run!" Kai yells as we all begin to run away from it even before he screams out the one word that we were all thinking.

Leaving the city of Ouroboros, we run directly towards the Bounty which Nya has already begun to start up so we will be able to get away from The Great Devourer in time. Oh, and did I mention? It's right behind us!

Hurriedly jumping aboard, Cole, Zane, Kai and I all crash through the door into the bridge with Jay being the last one to elegantly tumble in despite our circumstances. "Uh, hate to tell you this but objects in the mirror are closer than they appear!" Jay exclaims as the Great Devourer is on the Bounty monitor.

"Working on it. Blasters on full." Nya anxiously replies. And just as we take off, the giant snake almost attaches its fangs with the back of the ship but we manage to barely escape our deaths.

"Woo hoo! Take that you stupid snake!" Kai celebrates as he comes down from watching out the window.

"Uh, I think it heard you." I comment as the Serpent pops out of the ground in front of us.

"Nya, we gotta go faster. That thing is gaining on us." Kai states as he continues watching the snake from behind us once again as Nya dodges its attack.

"We're going as fast as we can! I'll try to make it to Scattered Canyon." Nya responds still anxious and full of fear. "Probability of us making it that far is less than 8 percent." Zane mentions stressing out Nya even more. "Never tell me the odds!"

"It's coming in for another attack." Cole mentions as he and Lloyd work on, well, whatever their working which seems to be helping. "Port side."

"We're losing speed, we'll drop to the ground pretty soon." Lloyd continues the list of issues of us escaping in one piece.

"Throw everything overboard." Nya instructs. "What?" We all question her authority. "We need to lose some weight." She then explains which makes sense.
