Jay finally builds up the courage to talk to the girl. Nya finally gets the nerve to ask to meet her online crush in real life. In their pursuits of love, they break each other's hearts. A short little story to celebrate the holidays. Editing was light in this story due to general holiday busyness. Apologies ahead of the time.

Timeline not same as the show. It's totally different. --- No one knows what had happened to Kai right after the merge. They mostly just brushed it off as mystery. But occasionally, some of the ninja would ask him what happened, and he would just brush it off as "It's fine." The ninja know it's not fine. Every time Kai got asked that question or if the topic came up, he would just clam up. Wouldn't speak much. Wouldn't answer and change the subject most of the time. And if he did answer, it would just be short and irritated. But Nya senses Kai's hurt. He's traumatised, she thinks. Nya wants to find out. But the truth about Kai comes out sooner than he expected. And what about an old prophecy? Something about a fire master burning the world down. That won't happen to Kai... right? --- I don't own Ninjago Dragons Rising.

Spoilers for Dragon Rising Season 3, Part 2! After Lord Ras messes with the monastery portals, Jay, Kai, and Nya get stranded in the Land of Monsters-a place where literally everything wants them dead. Fighting their way through is hard enough, but each of them also has to face the "monsters" they've been trying to avoid. Nya is stuck dealing with the heartbreak of Jay's amnesia and the weight of memories he doesn't share. Kai has to relive the moments that still haunt his dreams. Jay struggles with trust, and with figuring out who he really wants to be. Between deadly battles and painful truths, the question is: can they survive this world...and themselves? (Ninjago and its characters belong to their rightful creators. The story is my own. The amazing cover art isn't mine, if anyone knows the artist, please let me know so I can credit them!)

After the events of dragons rising season 2 part 1 *This will contain spoilers for season 2 part 2 so read with caution* Jay has no memories of life before the Administration. All he knows is the strict rules and mountains of mind numbing paper work. After failing a field mission, Jay is thrust into the dark side of the Administration, learning that there is nothing the organization won't do to keep their rules and order. The team sets out on a mission to find Jay and bring him home. The only problem is- he might not want to come. *5/26/25 Under rewrite! I guess looking back and not liking your old work is a sign of growth? 🫣

Moving to the city was hard enough for Nya Smith. Having to deal with a new school, new home, and a new family is the least of her problems. She discovers that everyone in the city has secrets: her brother, her foster family, her server at a local restaurant. Even the boy from her school that she's catching feelings for. But can she trust him when he's constantly lying to her? This is a Ninjago AU. Heavy on the Jaya, if you didn't infer that from the description. I don't own any of the characters but gosh darn it, I love writing about them.
