The constricting fangs and the hypnotizing venom

Can of Worms

"So then, just when we were gonna bite it, this huge mechanical robot-" "Samurai it was a samurai" Zane says interrupting Jay. "A sama-what?" Lloyd asks confused. "Samurai. Highest level of warrior class. They would protect nobility and serve with honor on the battlefield" Sensei answers the future green ninja.

"He was a hundred feet high, with weapons coming out every part of him. Look at Sensei's beard. It's moving like snakes!" Kai whispers to Cole who is very much annoyed. "When is this Venomari spit supposed to wear off? It's starting to get annoying" Nya asks sharing Coles sentiment with Kai who just places a dumpling on his face.

"Okay, don't let this mysterious Samurai cloud what's really important. All the Serpentine are out, and if Pythor can unite them, the legend states some Great Devourer is gonna consume the land and—" "Great devourer?" Nya says interrupting Cole. "Whatever it is, it's a can of worms I don't wanna see open" He replies. "Jordan do you perhaps know what it is?" Zane asks since she is a Serpentine. "Oh no not that thing. I can't believe he wants to actually awaken that thing he really thinks he can control that beast" She replies swallowing a dumpling whole.

"Wait you know what it is?" Jay says surprised. "Yeah it's this gigantic snake that gets bigger the more it consumes. Some serpentine worship it as a God. Only problem is that there's no controlling it. Pythor actually thinks he can what a idiot if that thing is awoken it will consume everything including the serpentine themselves he will be no exception" She answers. "That isn't good" Nya replies. "Well we will just have to stop them before they can do that!" Cole says finishing the rest of his dinner.

"Unh, it's all my fault. If I hadn't opened the first hatch, none of this would've happened" Lloyd says feeling awful for what happened. "Lloyd you had no idea this would happen don't beat yourself up over it" Jordan replies putting a hand on his shoulder.

After hearing that Pythor stole the last sacred flute an alarm goes off. The group heads to the computer room to see that a whole bunch of red dots are in ninjago city. "Man how many serpentine are there?!" Jay asks shocked at the amount of red dots. "Looks like all of them" Kai replies as it seems the venomari venom is finally wearing off. "Pythor must be trying to unite them" Zane concludes. "Go! We mustn't let the five tribes unite!" Wu says as the ninja head out.

As she waits for the ninja to return she decides to talk to Nya. "Yo Nya can we talk in private?" She asks her. "Oh uhm yeah sure" Nya replies confused as to what the serpentine could want to talk to her about. They make it to a private room and she shuts the door behind her. "Alright Nya I'm just gonna come out and say it. I know your the samurai." Jordan confesses much to Nya's shock. "H-how did you know?" She asks rightfully confused. She was sure she hid everything properly. "I smelled alot of metal coming from your room, serpentine sense of smell and all. I also heard some weird stuff going on in your room. Also the fact that a samurai showed up in the toxic bogs where only we knew where the serpentine were is to big of a coincidence. This doesn't seem like Wus thing and we all know Llpyd couldn't do it. He didn't even know what a samurai was." Jordan replies.

Nya was.....admittedly shocked about how quickly she deduced her identity. "Please don't tell the boys! I want to do my own thing that's why I made Samurai X." She begs the tall serpentine. "Don't worry Nya your secrets safe with me. Besides I'm gonna enjoy trying to figure out the samurai identity. And we girls gotta stick together. Anyways if you don't mind do you know a place where I can get some clothes? All I have are the ones I got on right now" She says gesturing to the shirt and shorts.

"Thank you so much, I do know a place that can do custom clothes for your tail and size, just leave it to me" She says smiling. "Thank you Nya I appreciate it" She replies tail wagging behind her. "No problem like you said us girls gotta stick together" She says and they do a fist bump and head out.

Two hours later the ninja return from their mission and are now sharing the details. "You know, whether it was in a lesson book or not, we used the destructive power of rumors to our advantage" Cole says. "And now the Serpentine are further away than ever from getting their act together" Kai says smirking to himself. "You know, I don't think we would've gotten out of there if it hadn't been for Zane" Jay says looking at the ice ninja. "Don't thank me. Thank Lloyd. If it hadn't been for his "laundry skills," we all would've been found" Zane replies as the group laughs as Lloyd enters with Zanes now white gi.

"Well, it took me twenty loads, but your suit's no longer pink. And to show that I'm sorry, Cole, I got you a can of nuts" Lloyd says handing the earth ninja a can of nuts. "Uh, haha, yeah. Don't think I don't see what this is. When I open this, a bunch of snakes are gonna pop out, right? Yeah, no thank you" Cole replies not wanting to fall for another prank as he goes to the fridge only to have a bunch of rubber snakes pop put making him scream and everyone else to laugh.
