I almost forgot about this, but enjoy!


"It's been a whole hour," Lloyd said. "I think we should call it quits for the night. We're not seeing anything and staying up all night isn't a good idea."

"Kid's right," Cole said, earning a glare from Lloyd. "Call the others and let's head back to the Bounty."

Donny pulled out his T-Phone and dialed Alex's number. He put the phone to his ear and waited. It rang once, twice, three times.

'Hey, you've reached Alex's T-Phone. If this is Leo or Donny and it's important, leave a message. If this is Raph or Mikey, hang up now before I make you regret it,' Alex's voice said. There was a beep and Donny hung up.

"She didn't answer," he said.

"That's odd," Leo said. "We should head south and see what's wrong."

Nya suddenly jumped onto the rooftop they were on. "The others are in trouble!" she exclaimed.

"What happened?" Zane asked.

"Okay, after I got Kara settled in, I went to meet up with the others. I spotted Pythor and two snake girls so I stayed hidden. They captured the others," Nya explained. "I would've went to help, but I would've only ended up captured too."

"At least we have a clue of where to look now," Cole said. "They would've headed to Ouroboros."

"So let's head back to your flying ship and go," Donny said. They took off back towards the Bounty.

Alex paced the front of the cell. She looked to the others—who were across the small corridor—and then to Penny. The poor girl was knocked out in the cell she was in. She wondered what Pythor wanted with her, she looked to be completely normal. Then again, looks could be deceiving.

Penny stirred and pushed herself up. "Someone's gonna pay," she mumbled. "Where am I?"

"Ouroboros," Alex replied. "Do you have any idea why Pythor would've taken you?"

"Nope," Penny said. "At first I thought my mom found out that I left and called the police on me, like a scared straight kinda thing, but then this butt-ugly purple snake comes and attacks me."

Alex stifled a laugh. She was use to Pythor's "butt-ugly" face, but in the eyes of someone who'd never encountered him... "Well, my friends and I are gonna find a way out," Alex assured her. "It's a bunch of dumb snakes, how hard could it be?"

"Alex," Jay said. "They're a bunch of dumb snakes who out smarted us."

"Threatening to push you off a building isn't out smarting us," Alex said, crossing her arms.

"Okay, but what about the two girls?" Kai asked.

Alex shrugged. "So they might be a little more intellegant, but they seemed more human than the serpentine."

"So any ideas?" Raph asked.

"What kind of lock is on the cells?"

Mikey walked to the cell door. "It looks like a key lock," he said.

"Oh, then I got this," Alex smiled. She reached up and pulled a bobby pin from her hair. She walked over to the cell door and reached her arms out so she could get the lock. She stuck the bobby pin inside and started jiggling it around.

"That'll never work," Kai said.

Click.

Alex pulled he lock off and set it down. "Since it doesn't work, I guess we'll just leave and go get help," she mocked, then turned to Penny. "My name is Alex, by the way, and those guys are Jay, Kai, Raph, and Mikey."

"Two of them are turtles," Penny noted. "So is there like a war between the snakes and turtles and the ninja just got caught in the middle?"

Alex stared at Penny for a moment. "Okay, yeah." She grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the cell. She went over to the guys and unlocked their cell. "Pythor wouldn't leave us alone for too long, so we need to hurry."

"Which way is out?" Mikey asked.

"Well if we're underground..." Jay mumbled.

"We go up," Kai and Raph said.

"Boys," Penny and Alex muttered.

"We have to stop and get our weapons first," Alex said. "It's not like they can use the Elemental Blades anyway."

"You just want your swords back," Raph said.

"I really do," Alex confessed. She pulled out her T-Phone. "I can get full reception in the sewers under New York, but out in the desert I can't get one stinking bar?"

"That is messed up," Mikey agreed.

"We going or what?" Kai asked.

Alex nodded and they started down the hall.

"Please, just let me help!"

"Kara, just stay put."

Kara and Cole were at stare off for a few minutes.

"Kara," Sensei finally stepped in. "You need to stay here."

Cole crossed his arms, a little in triumph. "All right, team," he said, turning to the others. "We need to get in, get the others, and then get out. Until we have the other eight ninja, I don't think it's a good idea to get into a fight with the serpentine."

Leo nodded. "Then let's move out!"
