THE GREAT DEVOURER HAD BEEN UNLEASHED, HER FATHER WAS GONE, AND NINJAGO WAS ALREADY DOOMED. Iris tried to stay positive — that somehow they could stop this — but it was hard. The boys all reached for the Wu girl as they felt their own sorrow sink in their hearts. Their teacher was gone and there wasn't anything they could do.
Iris said nothing as the boys cried out. She was too in shock to even move.
Above them the snake once again sailed up into the air as the thunder rumbled in their ears. It reared its head and roared victoriously at its first bite since escaping its prison. If there was one thing Iris knew from her lessons: it was that the Great Devourer was always hungry and could not be satisfied until it had consumed every living thing. And now it had gotten its appetite back.
Jay gulped as he stared up at the looming beast. It turned in their direction and Iris felt her heart quicken inside her chest. Fear fuelled her as she started to inch back towards the exit; desperate to put some distance between herself and that huge snake. "Oh, maybe if we stand perfectly still..."
But the serpent was staring directly at them. It was sizing up its next meal.
"Run!"
The ninja turned tail and fled with the Great Devourer right behind them. Together the five sprinted as fast as they could, feeling the exertion in their legs as they ran for their very lives. But the Great Devourer was big and fast and it slithered towards them at an almost taunting pace. Fear, it seemed, would consume them whole before the large serpent could. They could feel the effects echo through their bodies as they dashed.
Hissing and growling from behind them added to their fear as the evil serpent chased its prey. They tried to put as much distance between it and them as they could but it was soon catching up. The very snake that turned her Uncle, that ate her Father, it would get them too. And then all of Ninjago.
