THEY HAD A LOT OF GROUND TO COVER IF THEY WANTED TO CATCH UP WITH THE DEVOURER, AND THEIR TORNADO-CREATED VEHICLE NEEDED REPAIRS. But together the ninja — and their Samurai, of course — made quick work of it as they helped each other to finish the task. Then, they were ready to roll.

The seven raced across the sand from Ed & Edna's and towards Ninjago City. Iris knew they wouldn't arrive before the Devourer but they could try and make it before the damage grew too great. They had people to save and an evil snake to destroy — if it was even possible. And the ninja knew the only way they could do it was if they worked together. 

People screamed and fled all around them, the streets turning to chaos. They could hear the loud roar of the Devourer resonating around them and quickly sped off in its direction. Iris held the sides of her seat tight like a vice as she readied herself for what they were about to face.

But when the ninja turned the corner, to come face-to-face with the scaly monstrosity, they found it eyeing up a different meal. A meal called Ed and Edna: Jay's parents. They couldn't let them be eaten.

"Mom? Dad?" Fear was evident in Jay's voice as he watched the snake lower down to the Walkers' level. Anger flashed through Iris's eyes; she was not about to let someone else become an orphan. Not after...

They all burst out of the vehicle, weapons raised and ready to strike. Although Iris wasn't sure her non-golden katana would do much against the snake even if it was old and a gift from her Father.

"Leave my parents alone!" Cried Jay as he landed on the roof of their weird and beautiful car. "Lightning!" Flinging his nunchucks, Jay shot beam after beam of electricity at the beast. It groaned in pain until it turned and fled in a different direction.

More people scattered as the Devourer headed straight for them; its path unpredictable and all-consuming. 

Iris watched as Kai followed after the snake until he leapt before it. The fire ninja stood his ground and brandished his sword before his scaly foe. "Fire!" He yelled and a plume of fire burst from his weapon and shot straight at the Devourer. Direct hit.
