Zane's head starts beeping as you're getting ready to leave the Noodlehouse.

"We are needed on Sixth and Main. Theft in progress. The police require assistance." Zane reports. The ninja get up to go.

"Do you need me too?" You ask.

"By my calculations, the six of us will be more than adequate. Therefore, negative."

"Which means no, go home. Right?" Cole nods while Skylor gives you a sympathetic look.

"Fine, you'd better go then. I'll make my way back to Yang's Temple. Good luck guys and girl." You say, inwardly grumpy that you are getting left behind. The ninja leave. You talk with Skylor a bit longer, mainly about how unfair it is that your friends don't seem to notice when you want to join them on a mission. Eventually, you tell her that you have to go too, and exit the building. You admire the neon noodle man sign for a minute, then start to walk back home to the temple.

When you get to the outskirts of the city, you get the uneasy feeling that someone is watching you. Then you begin to walk by a row of trees, and the feeling strengthens. You give a small start as you realize that there is someone leaning casually against a tree trunk, watching you. You instinctively bend the matter in the air around you to form a short staff, which is one of your favorite weapons, aside from a dagger and a couple other trinkets. The figure doesn't really react, aside from coming out from under the tree's shadow. In the fading dusk light, you can make out the person standing no more than 12 feet away from you. A teen male, confident, judging by the slight swagger in his stride. He walks a bit like Kai, you think. You inwardly gasp as he lifts his head to reveal the most handsome boy you've even seen in your life.

He has longish jet-black hair with a green highlight on one side, and gorgeous dark eyes that twist your insides into knots. His smile, though some might say it was more of a smirk, suited him. His gi becomes him well, dark with green here and there. It takes all of your self-control not to have a total brain meltdown. In short, you're smitten. Then he speaks to you.

"So, you're the Master of Matter." His voice is so smooth, so seductive. You nearly faint right then and there. Then he starts checking you out, looking you up and down. He grins, liking what he sees. "Hmm. Not bad at all." He says to himself, pleased. He quickly appears beside you, grabbing your wrist and twisting it so that you drop your staff. He whispers in your ear. "A pretty girl like you could hurt herself with a weapon like that."

"A GIRL?!" You say loudly, insulted, though you're secretly pleased that he called you pretty. "I can handle myself, thank you." He glances at your fallen staff and raises an eyebrow in amusement. You're angry that you lost your focus and create another staff. You twist out of his grasp and strike him. Or rather, try to. It goes right through him, as if... Your eyes widen as the realization hits. He appeared beside you. "In the name of the First Spinjitzu Master." You mutter. You were so distracted by his looks that you didn't notice that you could see right through him! Then you address him. "Morro, I presume?"

"Yes." He says. "How did you know my name?"

"Your reputation precedes you." You answer. Morro looks gratified by that statement. "What do you want? The ninja aren't here."

He smirks. "Oh, I know. I'm not here for them. I'm here for you." Suddenly ghosts appear and surround you. Then you feel something like an invisible hand punch you unconscious. The last thing you see is Morro catching you as you fall. Then, you're swimming in a sea of utter blackness.
