Ninjgo Morro Master of Storm (Sons of Garmadon)

Chapter 15

(A man waits for the traffic light to turn green on an empty intersection.)

Man: Oh, come on. (He drives anyway but reverses when he sees the ninja and Crabby. They go to the police station.)

Officer #1: (Gasps.) Uh...

Kai: Is the Police Commissioner here? (The officer nods.)

Zane: Don't forget: the best way to defeat your enemy is to make him your friend.

Jay: Aren't you, Crabby.

Baby Wu: Crabby.

(The ninja go in the station.)

Officer #1: Hey, what am I supposed to do with him?

Nya: Take him to the zoo.

Officer: We don't have a zoo!

Kai: We need the Commissioner.

Officer #2: He's not taking any visitors.

Cole: But it's important.

Officer #2: All his work is important.

Jay: Don't make me zap you. (He zaps him and the ninja barge in.)

Nya: Commissioner!

P.I.X.A.L.: So good to see you.

Kai: There's no time to lose.

Cole: Sorry to barge in but it's really quite urgent.

Zane: We have to vacate the city.

Jay: We need weapons. Lots and lots and lots of weapons.

Baby Wu: Crabby!

Commissioner: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. One at a time. Just shoot it to me straight. What's gonna do me in?

P.I.X.A.L.: Pardon? Do you in?

Commissioner: Every time something bad happens to the city, first thing they do is can the police commissioner. So what is it this time? Subterranean mutant insects? Indomitable flesh-eating zombies? A pirate genie?

Cole: Pirate genie?

Commissioner: Yes, why not? Anything can happen in this crazy town.

(Jay and Nya share a smile.)

Jay: Argh, don't be ridiculous. It's the Sons of Garmadon.

Cole: They have Lloyd and Morro.

Zane: And the three Oni Masks.

Kai: The Quiet One—

Nya: —who is Harumi.

Kai: —is gonna resurrect the evil spirit of Lord Garmadon and then—

Commissioner: Just stop! The princess is behind all this?

Cole: Which is why we need you behind us.

Nya: Along with everyone on your force.

Commissioner: I'm not ready to lose my city just yet. (He dials the phone.) Person on the other end of this phone, get me the mayor. Yes, I'll hold.

(The Sons of Garmadon take Lloyd and Morro to the Temple of Resurrection.)

Harumi: The spider's in the house. Sleep sleep. The spider bit the mouse.

Lloyd: So this is your true face, without the mask. No wonder you covered it.

Harumi: Bite your tongue, Green Ninja. The fight is all but over. (Morro scoffs)

Morro: I wouldn't be sure of that, I bet they will be Barging at the last moment to save the day, they always do.

Lloyd: Where are you taking us?

Harumi: Trapped in the Palace of Secrets all my life, it gave me time to make a few...alterations, you could say. Yes, I destroyed the palace, but I was careful not to damage the Temple of Resurrection.

Ultra Violet: The ninja have survived, Quiet One. They are in the city. (Morro and Lloyd smug)

Lloyd: What was that you said about the fight being over?

Harumi: Let them come. If anyone tries to stop me, I always have my insurance policy. (She points to Misako getting thrown into a cage.)

Lloyd: Mom!

Misako: Lloyd? She's crazy. She wants to bring back your father.

Harumi: I've been so looking forward to this...family reunion.

Lloyd: Let her go. This is between us.

Harumi: No, Lloyd. There was never anything between us. It hurts, doesn't it? There's nothing more powerful than a blow to the heart. We found her after she tracked down young Wu. Helpful of her. Prepare the ceremony. We begin at nightfall.

Lloyd: I won't let you get away with this.

Ultra Violet: (Laughs.) Or what? You'll cry? (Pretends to whimper.)

(At nightfall, the ninja hide throughout the city.)

Kai: We were right. The streets are teeming with SoG. They don't want anyone getting close to the palace.

Zane: We are in place. Operation Undercover initiate.

Kai: Copy that.

(The Sons of Garmadon have Lloyd trapped in another cage.)

Lloyd: What are you doing?

Harumi: The three Oni Masks alone won't bring back your father. For the ritual to succeed, I also need a hair from the son (she plucks his hair) and from the wife. (Mr. E lowers Misako's cage, making Lloyd's go up.)

Lloyd: Don't touch her! (She plucks her hair.)

Misako: You.

Harumi: And I already collected one from the brother, dear little Wu and since Lord Garmadon is a son of the FSM we need the blood from a dragon or at least a half dragon. (Morro looks and glares, struggling against the chains holding him.) All we need is for you to transform.

Morro: (Scoffs) Don't even think I will willingly!!

Harumi: I already guessed that. (Killow grabs him from behind and Morro yelps, Mr.E inject Morro with something and in five minutes he had become a hybrid, half dragon, half human/ghost. Harumi draws blood from his arm with her dagger) So are we all ready to begin?

Lloyd: Don't worry, Mom. My friends will stop this.

Harumi: And if they try, they'll have to make a choice. (Morro gets put in a deepstone cage)

Lloyd: A choice? What do you mean? (Mr. E lowers Misako right above the water.) No! (Piranhas start to surround her.)

Harumi: Save your mother, or their beloved Green Ninja.

Lloyd: Let me out.

Misako: Whatever happens, that man she wants to bring back is not your father. You must not let it happen.
