Lloyd walked to Morro's doorway.
"Morro bro, mind if I take a hairtie?" Lloyd asked politely.
"Your hair is shorter than mine, Goldilocks. What do you need one for?" Morro asked completely seeing through his lie.
"Hey, man I'm just the delivery boy." Lloyd said
"What demon did you make a deal with?" Morro asked
"Someone you know." Lloyd said
"That really doesn't nail it down." Morro said
"Just hand over a hairtie." Lloyd said exhausted with how difficult Morro was being.
"Here you go, Green Bean." Morro sighed
"Thanks dude." Lloyd said taking a deep breath.
"Oh, and Lloyd?" Morro said
"What?" Lloyd said
"Put some pants or shorts on.We don't want any animals eating you before we leave." Morro recommended
As Lloyd left he sighed.
"Villains and their superiority issues." Lloyd said rolling his eyes as he left.

"Here's your stupid hairtie." Lloyd grunted with annoyance.
"Pleasure doing business with you." Harumi said as she smiled like a Cheshire Cat.
Both of them hovered awkwardly unsure what to say.
"Am I interrupting something?" Morro asked appearing from thin air.
What made air thin anyway? Is there such thing as thick air? Lloyd thought
"Oh, nothing important." Harumi said brushing Morro off.
"Let's go." Lloyd said taking charge.
"Do you have any idea where your going?" Morro asked
"No idea!" Lloyd said
Morro sighed.
"You are such an idiot." Morro said
Lloyd glared at Morro.
"Follow me, blondie." Morro said
Harumi hesitated behind only to reveal a two tickets in her hand. A fourth one that both Morro and Lloyd didn't know if it's existence.
"Here's a gift for you partner." Harumi said before leaving.
She heard rustling behind her. But she knew who it was.
"You want me to join you?" Dylan asked meekly.
"I brought you into this, but if you want you can pull out." Harumi said as her back was turned against him.
"I'll meet you at the back entrance of the fair." Dylan responded
"Thank you. I won't let you down." Harumi said shutting the door.
Harumi ran to catch up with Morro and Lloyd.
"What took you so long?" Morro asked
"Uh, girl issues. Nothing too concerning." Harumi laughed off.
Lloyd could tell it wasn't the average girl issue but he didn't ask for more information.
"So how exactly are we getting there?" Harumi asked
"Oh, by dragon." Lloyd said
"Oh that sounds quite in—SANE!" Harumi screamed
"You two are completely nuts...it's not like we can just summon one!" Harumi exclaimed
"Well actually..." Lloyd said
"Shut up! You're just elementally privileged! I don't know if you realized this but I'm just a normal former human. " Harumi yelled at them and the more Lloyd thought about it, it kinda sounded like Jay when he was yelling "I hate to ruin the moment but...".
"That's debatable." Morro exclaimed
"So uh... who am I riding with?" Harumi asked
"With me obviously! I don't need you falling off of a dragon!" Morro exclaimed
"It was one time! And besides it wasn't even mine!" Lloyd exclaimed
"Then I'm not trusting you to be a good co-pilot on road trips." Harumi responded
"We wouldn't last a day in the same car!" Lloyd responded
"FSM, stop arguing and get on!" Morro yelled
"You don't even know where the place is. All of this was my idea." Harumi scoffed
"And that's why you're my passenger, Harumi hon! Lloydie has some dragon struggles. He's following behind us." Morro said
Lloyd sighed.
"Villains and their superiority issues." Lloyd muttered
—-
When they all arrive at the theme park. They expected to get through like your average citizen.
But unfortunately there was an issue.
"Why the heck do you three have normal tickets?!" A worker asked
"Well..." Harumi started to say.
"Nonsense! A former savior of Ninjago, the Departed Realm's hero, and the former princess of Ninjago? No, you all need VIP passes!" The worker exclaimed
"Excuse me?" Lloyd asked
"Yo! Someone get these celebs passes upgraded!" The worker shouted
Morro facepalmed.
"Why just why?" Morro muttered.
——
"Ugh, that was a hassle." Harumi said
"Yeah, no kidding." Lloyd agreed
"I mean, at least we can skip the long lines now." Morro shrugged
"Yeah. Easier to get rid of extra weight." Harumi agreed as she glanced at Lloyd.
Lloyd looked at Harumi and decided to play along because he knew they were separating anyway.
"Do I look like a goddamn blueberry?" Lloyd asked dramatically
"No you look like a piece of broccoli." Harumi responded bluntly
"Later, guys I'm going to do other stuff." Harumi said disappearing into the crowd.
Morro look to Lloyd.
"What do you want to do?" Morro asked
