Destiny (Working Title) 🐢INFREQUENT UPDATES FOR THE FORSEEABLE FUTURE!🐢

Chap 3: Dearly Departed...

Here's a little update for all of you Morro fans out there!  Please do enjoy!  😎

Morro glares up at Chen, who's sitting smugly in his chair.  The boy's dark eyes spark angrily, challenging the man in front of him.  Chen smiles confidently back at him, meeting his gaze.  

Then the man waves at Soul Archer, whose phantom tail separates into a pair of legs.  He kicks Morro and positions his foot onto the boy's back so that he cannot get up.

Morro growls and starts to focus.  The wind picks up, but Bansha interrupts him with a hiss.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you.  It could result in a very undesirable outcome, Morro."  She says, her tone distinctly menacing.

"Why?  Scared?"  He taunts back.

She emits a chilling screech, but he doesn't even flinch.

"Amusing.  But you forget, I used to work with you.  You do not frighten me in the slightest, Bansha."

"The key words are 'used to.'"  Chen interrupts.  "So tell me, boy, did you manage to 'settle your debt' with your old Master?"

Morro's gaze slides sideways as he replies.  "Yes."

"That's odd, then."  Chen continues.  "Should you not be alive if that were the case?"  He chuckles, not waiting for an answer.  "Unless, of course, you decided to help him and his little ninja force instead?"

Morro laughs coldly, though it sounds slightly strained.  "Now why would I do that?"

Chen taps his chin thoughtfully.  "Why, indeed?"  He emits a false gasp, pretending to come to some sort of conclusion.  "Perhaps you made your peace with them, as opposed to destroying the-"

"-Wretches!"  Bansha interrupts, before shooting an apologetic glance at Chen.

"Yes, quite."  Cryptor drones.

Morro snorts.  "Because you were all so successful in dispatching them, weren't you?"  He laughs harshly, mockingly.

"Hold me back!!!"  Samukai roars, lunging for him.  Kruncha and Nuckal immediately comply.

"Easy, boss!"  Kruncha soothes.

"Yeah!"  Nuckal adds.  "He's just trying to annoy you."

"Well, it's working!"  Samukai struggles with them, throwing them off.

"Krazi, Bones, Wyplash, help us!!!"  Kruncha wails.

Three other skeletons come forth out of the crowd and subdue their leader between them.

"He's not worth it, Master."  Wyplash mutters.

"You don't seem to be worth much yourself, you old pile of bones."  Morro teases.  Soul Archer frowns and presses him deeper into the ground, causing the ghostly boy to begin to sink into the ground.  Morro chuckles derisively at them all.

"Ooh, scary.  I'm a ghost.  What can you do to me that will actually harm me?"

Chen gives him an evil little smile.  "Why don't we find out?"

A.N: I swear to the FSM, if this book sneakily becomes another 44 chapters long, like my other two Morro books, I'm going to lose it.  😅

I intend shorter chapters, but as you all know, books write themselves, and we just write the things that they want to transpire in their (digital?) pages.

😒

I'll be keeping on eye on it...  *Makes an 'I'll keep an eye on you' gesture and walks into a wall (like Kai with Lord Garmadon in The Green Ninja episode)*  OW!
