{Location: New Ninjago city bay area}(Morro's POV)

Clover peeks out the window, "It's chaos out there." He closes the shutters, looking confused, "And they brought Harumi."

"I KNOW YOU'RE HERE!" Speaking of. Harumi's voice carries as she rides a boat up and down the canal, "YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM ME, HUNTER!"

"It's Morro." I growl, "My name is Morro. What's so hard about that?"

Sensei finishes off the tea and food, "We should leave. They'll find us soon and-"

"No," I glace at Miskaté, an idea forming, "We're going to change it up."

Miskaté smirks, "What'd you have in mind?"

"If you can look like Katara, can you look and sound like me?"

She hums while waves her hand over her face. It's like looking in a mirror. "Long," Her now jet black hair shortens from long and behind the ears to shorter and freer moving, "Or short hair?" She snickers, "Voice is a little tricker. Talk so I can get an idea about it."

"You've got a plan?" Clover folds his arms after pulling off his disguise, pulling a dull orangish hood over his head.

"Harumi took my friends from me, I say we do the same to her. We lead them down, slowly separating them until it's just her. With her, we have a bargaining chip." I start making a map of leftover food, "I'll be waiting at the end with a net while Miskaté as me leads her from where we are to catch her. Your job will be separating the bikers."

Clover shrugs, "You make it sound so easy."

"How are you expecting to get pass Harumi's tracking?" Sensei smirks as I put on his hat, "If her abilities are anything like yours."

I scoot closer to Miskaté, hugging her.

"Ohh," She giggles in my voice, "I didn't you felt that way about me young one."

"I don't. I'm trying to get my smell on you." Is that what I sound like? Dark and angsty? Yikes. I let her go, "That should be ok, for now."

"Than," She pulls on her mask, matching the one I burned, "Let's give it a shot."

Sensei grabs his staff, "Clover and I will take the roofs. Are you ready?"

"Totally," Clover tosses me a net, "Now, this place has all kinds of automatic bridges, we time it right, and their numbers will dwindle fast."

They head out as I fix my disguise. I speed out, running into a perfume salesman, "Could I try some?"

"Sure." He hides a little behind his cart.

I dump a whole bottle of ax spray on my chest, yuck. I so need a shower after that. I toss it away, running to my position, "Thanks." I stop, sitting on top of a trash can. I watch as Miskaté moves just like I do. She swings off a pole, rolling into a run.

Harumi shifts out of her wolf form, "I've got you now."

Miskaté holds her hands up, smirking as she turns back into an old woman, "I think you have the wrong person young lady. But I do have one of those faces."

Harumi gasps as Clover appears on the roof, his bows aimed at her skull. She tries backing out only to run into Sensei.

"You know," I raise my head as I throw the net over her, "They say danger has no face."

"Hunter." She smiles.

"My name is Morro."

"Look what you've returned to. A beggar in rags." She sneers as Clover ties the net up with a rope, "You've changed so much."

I get up looming over her, "Your friends have been taken from you. The same way you took my friends from me."

"Oh," she grins, "Is this about your broken promise? You should have known you'd fail. And you seemed so hopeful that Seliel would crush my soul. Whatever that means."

"Gag her, and we'll ask her questions." I lower my hat as Clover picks her up.

He smirks as I carefully lead the way back to our first hideout, "Now don't bite. I just shaved."

Sensei finds a chair and some chains, locking her down, "I'd love to see you worm your way out of those."

I pull her gag out, "I hoped you learned a little more about my history since last time," I tie a blindfold on her.

She snarls as I to grab something, "Sensei Wu found you as a boy, you left the thieve's ring to become the green ninja. But you couldn't do it. You went looking for the tomb of the first spinjutzu master then died. Somehow, you become the right hand of the ghost realm-"

"And she taught me a thing or two about getting answers," I pull out popsicles, holding my finger over my mouth, "Something called, a hot poke."

"Hot poke?" Her voice wavers, "What is-?"

"I know when you're lying. If you do," I press on of them against her neck, "Well, you're smart enough to figure that out."

She shakes around, "Why is it cold?"

"It's so hot, it feels cold." I ohh at the back of her neck, "That's gonna leave a mark."

"Give me all the burns you'd like, I'm the quiet one. I won't talk."

I ask her question after question. She says nothing until I run out of popsicles. I wave over my team, huddling, "I don't think it's working."

Sensei looks at her, whispering lower, "She is useful in other ways. We could trade her for our captured allies. Even Katara."

Miskaté hums, "Kenneth does have a liking to natural hunters. He'll want her back." She looks at me, "You know him best what do you think?"

"He would, but not before-" Idea. I'm full of them today. I grab my headphones, "Clover, you got any tunes?"

"I don't-"

"Trust me," he gives me his phone, I plug it in, finding his loudest most heavy metal sound then put them in Harumi's ears and gag her again. "I have a plan. She's not going to stay put but we need that stone Oni out of the way."

"How?"

"By taking out Kenneth. And saving Katara. It's time to end this. We'll do a trade. But not in the way anyone's going to see coming."

"Go on." Sensei looks amused.

"Harumi thinks she's so smart, but even she can't out think this." I check on her, she tries shaking out the earbuds to no luck. I stand upright, "Clover, I'm going to need you to 'fall' for one of her tricks. Say something like you're the only one powerless or whatever. She'll squeeze out, come looking for a prize to return with. But you have to let her get away ok?"

"Sure." Clover raises an eyebrow at my plan so far.

"Next, we'll be looking in her bag, her mask should be hiding in there. I'll look like I want to put it on but-"

"It'll really be me." Miskaté transforms back into me.

"Not quite." I see each step in my head, working together like clock gears, "You will look like me but I'll be holding the mask. Chances are she'll believe that I'm power hungry. We'll fight but she'll get away with me. Not sure if she picked the right one. After that, you'll follow us discretely. As a hunter, she'll want to show her catch, she can't resist going to show me off. We'll be at Kenneth's stronghold, I'll mouth him off. Saying I'll trade myself for Katara. When I give the signal, you'll attack, holding back his generals while I fight him. And trust me, you'll know the signal when you see it."

"Morro," Sensei was liking the plan until that last sentence, "The last time you fought him, you nearly died."

"And lost your elemental power." Clover huffs, shivering in the cold night air. "What if-"

"We don't have time for ifs. We need to do this. If all goes wrong, Miskaté should be able to destroy that thing."

Miskaté frowns, "I think you overestimate my destructive tendencies." She soon giggles, "Bah, who are I kidding? You got it, kid."

I glace at Sensei, "Anything you'd like to say?"

"No, but when you face Kenneth, you must be ready to do anything necessary." He means...oh. Sensei holds a stern look, "Are you capable?"

I nod, "Y-yeah. I'll do what I must. Now we should put this into action. Sooner we do, sooner we get Katara back." I move to the ally when Clover touches my shoulder.

"One question and not about the plan. That seems all right."

"Ask anything."

"Why don't you like calling Kenneth Father? I know there's some rough history between you two but I can't shake that feeling that's not it."

I smile as I watch Sensei, "Because the man in the role of my father is already taken. And I'll never think of him any other way."

Clover nods as he takes Harumi's earbuds out, "I see."

I close the door behind me, waiting for Harumi to take my bait.

{Location: The Oni stronghold in the first realm}(Seliel's POV)

"The sun is up." Faith stomps out our fire, quickly gathering our supplies, "Let's get moving."

Kit moans, throwing off a crappy looking blanket, "What happened to breakfast?"

"We get breakfast in Nijngo." Faith starts up her speeder.

Nya gets up as my back is filled with knots, "It's Ninjago. Not hard to pronounce."

Faith ignores us as I get up. "Here, I should have given out these last night," she has weapons!? Faith gives Nya a rusty looking spear, Skylor her chain gun thing and Pixal a pair of swords.

I stomp as Faith puts her sword on her back, "You had weapons the whole time?"

"Technically we all had weapons. I found them when I was taking off the tracker on the speeders." Faith holds up a sole kama, cleaner looking than the rest but it's got a ball and chain, "Will this do Dragonborn Seliel?"

"Sure," it feels way different than my other kama but familiar. I look at the rising sun, it is beautiful but means we're already losing daylight, "We should clean up."

"I got it," Nya spinjitzus away our fire and our pillows. "There, let's get going."

"You're masters of spinjutzu?" Faith sounds surprised as we load up.

Skylor shrugs as she warms up her engine, "Just Nya, Pixal and Kit. Sel and I are still working on it."

I climb on behind Faith as she drives out, "Let me guess, it has some ancient blah blah attached to it."

"No, I just never seen it before." Faith looks up, "Little one, you said that Iron Baron's forces would catch up to us before we reached Firstborn's nest. When is that?"

Kit shakes her head as mine starts buzzing, "Like pretty much when we get there they catch up."

A gorgeous bright blue dragon flies over us. Shooting out lighting.

Faith makes a circular motion with her hand, "You should practice your dragon tongue before we get to the nest."

I stand up, carefully balancing on the speeder, cupping my hands over my mouth, "HEY! HELLO! I WANT TO BE FRIENDS! UNCLE!"

The dragon dives down, looking me in the eye. You smell like a dragon, you wear dragon colors but I do not know you. You do not look like a dragon.

"I'm a Dragonborn. From-"

You're not fully dragon. He roars, piercing my ears. You are Oni in disguise.

"No. No." I shake my hands, "I'm not an Oni. I'm from Ryūjin and Quivu's line."

The dragon shoots out lighting at my friends. How dare you clam Ryūjin and Quivu as your kin.

"I'm telling the truth," I throw my kama, the blade wrapping around its neck, hooking onto itself. I start climbing.

Skylor evades around a rock, "Seliel."

"I got this. Just keep driving," I climb onto the dragon unhooking my kama, "I am not a lier. Ryūjin and Quivu ARE my ancestors." I slip as he tries to bounce me off. I latch onto his snout, forcing him to look at me, "I'm a Dragonborn from Ninjago. I come from the twin dragons of Ryūjin and Quivu. I won't let anyone deny what I just learned about myself."

You have Ryūjin's determination. The dragon slows down until he lands. And Quivu's way with words. I am sorry for doubting you when all you wanted to talk. He lowers his nose, letting me slip off. I brush my hand against his nose as my friends watch in awe. The dragon huffs, grunting a little. You aren't much further from mother's nest. You should be there by sundown.

"Thank you."

He raises his head. You'll be a powerful dragon warrior, but never doubt your ability. Not all things belong to luck. I wish you the all the best. He smirks before flying off, little sister.

"Goodbye, uncle."

Kit cheers as I get back on with Faith, "That was cool."

Faith smirks as we zip off on the last leg of our trip, "You're getting better. Now meditate. You must have all your strength to talk with firstborn."
