Ninjago: Rise of Yether

Ransom Demand

(A/N: Well, I know I just put the previous chapter up yesterday, but I am still doing the usual Saturday upload, unless otherwise)

--------

In the booking room, police officers bring in Ed, Fanglongous, Rattla, Selma, Jacob, Ronin, Ulmer, Ray, Warnie, the mailman and other illegal gamblers in a line. "First suspect, please." The officer operating the camera said. Ed comes up to the camera and holds up a board, showing his name and suspect number before the officer takes his mugshot.

--------

Several suspects later, it was soon Ray's turn as he noticed Nya looking at him. "Turn and face the camera." Nya soon walked away, shocking him. "I said, turn and face the camera." He soon turned to face the camera, holding the board up while frowning before his mugshot was taken.

--------

Further ahead, the suspects were getting fingerprinted, having their DNA samples taken, their clothing removed, and replaced with prison uniforms. "Please, don't rush me, officer, I'm blind." Jacob said as he prepared to be fingerprinted.

As Warnie was next to remove his clothes, Mantis holds out a bag to him. "Remove your clothes, please, Senator." He said. Warnie starts to remove his clothes while looking at Mantis. "And don't stare at me."

"Sorry, that look on your face reminds me of someone." He replied as he undid the rest of the buttons on his shirt, took it off, revealing a gold medallion of an ant with a shade of black around his neck, and placed it into the bag. Mantis was soon curious about him as he soon took off the medallion, causing his red eye to instantly turn green.

--------

After all the suspects were processed and booked they were about to be placed in holding cells before Simon comes up to the officer escorting Ed. "Him first." He said. The officer walks away as Simon soon escorted Ed down further.

"Look, officer, like I told your friends earlier, I only just had a few turns." He said.

"Tell that to your wife, Mr. Walker."

--------

In the precinct, Kai, Jay, Zane, in his Titanium form, Lloyd, Nya, Geoff, Gewuji, Maggie and Blake were looking at the dagger that was in Lloyd's hand before the doors burst open, and Edna comes up to Jay. "Jay!" She said, concerned as she came up to him. "Oh, Jay, you're okay!"

"I am." Jay replied as Edna hugged him. "But, Ma, this is about dad."

"Why would my Ed get arrested?"

"Because your husband was arrested during a raid on an illegal casino." Tommy said, coming up to them. "One suspect escaped, taking a Ninja hostage."

"Oh, I'm sorry about Cole, but I'm here for my husband." The doors soon open again and they turn to see Simon bringing Ed in. "Oh, Ed!" Edna tries to head over to him, but Jay holds her back.

"Sorry, Mrs Walker, we're about to interrogate your husband." Simon replied as he leads Ed into an interrogation room, and closed the door.

Groaning was heard as Geoff turned to see Callen coming out of a nearby room. "Are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah, I just felt a kick." She replied.

"Wow, must be a fighter like their mother." Lloyd said.

"Aw, new girlfriend, Geoff?" Edna asked.

"Hello?" Maggie asked before Edna noticed her.

"Oh, sorry. I just assumed you and Maggie, um... ended the engagement."
