《Ninjago: the Daughter of the Overlord》Chapter 17: Morro
Advertisement
Aria sat at the docks humming to herself with her eyes closed. Stiix was the perfect place for her, it was a nice town but it was gloomy. When she felt the wind change she opened her eyes.
"I was wondering when you'd show up" Aria says
"Princess" Morro responds "you have something I want"
"And you have something I want" Aria tells him as she stands up, she turns and faces him "that body your using is very inconvenient for me"
"The body of the green ninja?" Morro raises his eyebrow "how is it inconvenient for you"
Aria walks up to him "because I will be the one to bring him down, not some ghost with imposter syndrome"
"...couldn't you insult me some other way sis" Morro complains
"you don't have the right to call me your sister anymore" Aria crosses her arms "It's Princess or Lord to you"
"I guess things have changed since I've been gone" Morro says
"A lot" Aria responds "so why don't you do the both of us a favor and turn yourself and your crew over quietly, make my job a bit easier"
"Sorry, not going to happen" Morro takes a step back
"Don't make this hard for yourself" Aria's eyes glow purple
"hmph" Morro smirks "I was always the faster one"
"Oh" Aria smirks as growls could be heard from the mist around them "whoever said I'd be the one chasing you"
"heh" Morro looks behind him
Growling wolves were closing in around him, all their eyes were glowing the same dark purple as Aria's.
"Got yourself some pets?" Morro questions turning to face Aria again
"I'll say it again Morro" Aria tilts her head to the side "turn yourself in"
"I think not" Morro says
Morro uses the wind to project himself up and onto a roof before running. Aria's wolves growl and she holds her hand out making them stand still. After a bit Aria sniffs the air and points in a direction.

"Get him" Aria orders
The wolves take off quickly following the path of his scent. Aria jumps up and follows after her wolves.
"The ghost is what we want, be careful not to hurt the host" Aria tells them
The wolves take off in a faster pace then Aria. Her wolves disappeared from her sight, but she continued to follow their tracks until she reaches her pack who were whining and sniffing around.
"Damn it" Aria looks around "I can't sense him anywhere" she puts her hand over her pocket "Fuck! When did he- ugh"
Aria's wolves whine and gather around her with their tails and ears down, their heads were also down in shame.
"It's alright guys" Aria sighs "he's a ghost, I'm sure something like changing his scent is easy for him, you guys were a good help though, I'm not mad"
Aria pats the heads of all her wolves before they all disperse and she heads back to her kingdom. She sits in her room and calls Cole.
"I'm a little busy cuz, what is it?" Cole asks
Aria opens a book "Morro got the scroll of airjitsu"
"Yeah I've got that much" Cole responds "We tried to stop him but he got away, we've gotta learn airjitsu somehow"
"Well.. I have an idea" Aria puts the book down "It has to do with a certain old ghost, but you go at your own risk"

Five years have gone by since Michael last opened Lunar Masquerade, an MMORPG where you don’t choose a class, a calling chooses you. Yet, here he is, awake inside the game, naked in a circle of arcane symbols. Summoned. But, when he finds that the one to summon him is no other than his fiancée’s character, Selrah, it soon dawns on him that they may have left the game, but the game continued without them. No longer Michael, but Mythril, and a few quests and a raid later, he is on the run. His summoning no accident, he must flee the very person he thought he could rely upon, not to mention an ego-maniac of a guild leader, and a forlorn ostrich named Audreg. His calling changing to one thought only of legend, his companions a womanizing bard and a noxiri too fond of daggers, Mythril must regain his strength and reach the Feylands, before another calls upon the ancients leading the world into destruction once again.
