We are getting two songs in this chapter.

He should have told her instead of finding out from the news.

Nalia's manager both loves and hates his job.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*2 months later, Nalia returns to Ninjago City to perform a new concert.*

Nalia heaved as she sat in her dressing room, getting ready to sing another song for the people of Ninjago City.

"I still can't believe Lloyd and the others didn't tell me anything about Zane," Nalia mumbled while tapping her foot, trying to control the anger that had been slowly rising through these last two months when she found out from the news on a TV. That the white ninja, Zane, had died by sacrificing himself.

"I'm gone for five months, and this is what I return to. I swear after this concert, I will find Lloyd and give him a piece of my mind." Nalia noticed her eyes were changing to their golden color, so she took a deep breath, trying to calm down as her eyes turned back to brown.

Soon, there was a knock on the door, snapping her out of her anger as she turned her head. "Come in." The door opened, and in came her manager, Mr. James.

"Starlight, we are about to start in ten minutes. So I came to see that you were ready to go and aren't sitting and eating mangos like last time," said Mr. James.

Nalia rolled her eyes playfully as a smile grew on her face. "Relax, Mr. James. It was only that one time." She exited her seat and put on her mic connected to her earpiece.

"Though I wasn't around when the white ninja, Zane sacrificed his life for our city. I do hope this song will reach the people and give the ninja the respect he deserves," said Nalia as she walked out of her dressing room.

After taking the job as a singer, she left most of her ninja past behind her, so not many knew she was once part of the ninja team. But should they ever need help, she would be right there no matter what.

Mr. James quickly followed Nalia as he started talking about all the fame she was getting and how everyone loved every new song she released. She was already among the top five best singers.

"I'm sure the people and the ninjas will love the song you have to honor the white ninja, Starlight." He said.

A small smile grew on Nalia's face. "While I am mad at them, I do hope they at least hear my song. Who knows, maybe I'll see them in the crowd." She thought to herself.

The lights on the stage began turning on as Nalia went on to stand right in the middle of the stage.

"Hey! Ninjago City! It's so good to be back here after my long tour around Ninjago!" Nalia spoke to the crowd that was already chanting and cheering her name.

She let out a giggle at how excited the people seemed. "Now, I know while I was gone, something tragic happened here in this city; one of the ninjas lost their life by sacrificing himself to save everyone else. The white ninja, Zane, died as a hero to the people, his friends, and family."

Everyone grew silent as they thought about the loss of a great ninja.

"So, in honor and memory of this great ninja! I'm gonna sing this song for you all tonight! And I hope the ninjas, wherever they are, will listen to it too and take it to heart!" shouted Nalia out loud to the crowd.

The lights soon turned off as the music in the background started playing, and slowly, the lights focused on Nalia as she started singing.
