A moment later the Great Devourer swallows Pythor and Master Wu in a single gulp.

"No sensei!" Aria shouts

Kai picks her up before she could run over "It's too late Aria"

The giant snake then turns and spots them.

Jay looked nervous "Oh, maybe if we stand perfectly still.."

"Run!" Kai shouts

The ninja take off and climb aboard the Bounty.

"There's no wind. And we only have reserved fuel" Lloyd says

"Use it" Nya commands and they took off with the Devourer following

"Uh, hate to tell you this, but objects in the mirror are closer than they appear!" Jay shouts, panicking

"Working on it." Nya says "Blasters on full."

Kai threw something at the snake "Whoo-hoo! Take that, you stupid snake"

The Devourer ate it and moved faster

"Uh, I think it heard you" Jay says nervously

"Go faster!" Aria shouts

"We're going as fast as we can. I'll try to make it to Scattered Canyon" Nya says

"Probability of us making it that far is less than 8 percent" Zane calculates

"not now Zane!" Aria shouts as her eyes teared up

Lloyd hugs her "We're losing speed. We'll drop to the ground pretty soon"

"Throw everything overboard" Nya commands "We need to lose some weight"

"Port side!" Lloyd shouts

The Ninja begin throwing out many things including a fridge only for the Devourer to eat it all and grow exponentially.

"Man, he sure is hungry. Does anyone else think the Devourer looks bigger than it did before?" Jay questions

"The more it consumes, the bigger it gets. Don't throw anything else overboard" Cole says

Nonetheless, the lost ballast allows the Destiny's Bounty to reach Crashcourse Canyon.

"Phew. We made it to Scattered Canyons" Nya sighs in relief

"we lost him" Cole relaxed before The Devourer bites off an engine.

Aria screamed as they started to fall

"Abandon ship!" Nya shouts

Lloyd grabbed Aria's hand when she hesitated and pulled her off with the rest of them. They hide under a walk, the Ninja watch as the Great Devourer bites their home in half, quickly leaving the scene afterwards

"Oh, that was too intense." Kai huffs "All that action makes you so thirsty."

"There's no time to rest. We need to warn people before it becomes bigger" Zane says

Jay freaks out "Bigger? Bigger!? That thing in one big bite crushed our entire ship! We need to save as many as we can. Uh, uh, we'll find some kind of refuge, somewhere safe to hide. Ooh, the Serpentine Tombs. Yeah, they're underground. Sure, we'll be without sunlight, but they're perfect"

Aria starts crying.

"Jay look what you did!" Nya shouts

"I didn't mean to make her cry" Jay says

Kai bends down to her "Princess it's ok

"No it's not!" Aria cries "Sensei Garmadon left, now Sensei Wu's gone."
