Harumi has all the items needed for the ritual; the three Oni masks, hairs from the relatives of the one she wanted to bring back, and the spell she had found in the Palace of Secrets. She even found the Temple of Resurrection, hidden deep within the earth under the palace.
Everything should go as planned, except it wouldn't.
Instead of bringing back Lord Garmadon, Harumi brings back a ghost from the past.

Morro didn't expect to be brought back to Ninjago, for the third time now. But when he wakes up in the Temple of Resurrection, in front of Princess Harumi and a caged Lloyd Garmadon, he is faced with a choice:
Join forces with the mad Princess, and be able to secure his deepest desire - to become the Green Ninja, or turn over a new leaf and (possibly) help protect Ninjago, as he was trained to do all those years ago.

Previously, this story is a one-shot titled as "One Hell of a Team". As I'm planning on continuing this story to be longer than a one-shot, I've changed the title and descriptions a bit. I've also changed the cover, as it is no longer just a "Morro meets Harumi" one shot.
The first part of this story is also cross posted on AO3, under the same username, Yoshi5138, but any parts after that would only be posted here.

A whole year has passed after Nya's sacrifice. Many of the Ninja had deserted from the team to do their own personal things, however that wouldn't last too long when they all learn about a Herald buying vengestones and recruiting old villains.
And although the powerful Sea Serpent Wojira has been defeated, an even greater and more dangerous power will soon emerge from the shadows and threaten to bring peace in the dark. Not just Ninjago, but all of the 16 Realms.
Will the Ninja be the same without Nya? Will they prevail against this Darkness or will they all perish and let everything they have protected so hard be consumed before their very eyes?
Will the Ninja protect those who can not protect themselves?
Will the Ninja be able to stand up against those who are cruel and unjust?
Will the Ninja never quit?
