{Book 9 of the "I Never Knew" AU} "𝐼𝒻 𝓂𝓎 𝓌𝒾𝓈𝒽𝑒𝓈 𝒸𝒶𝓂𝑒 𝓉𝓇𝓊𝑒, 𝒾𝓉 𝓌𝑜𝓊𝓁𝒹'𝓋𝑒 𝒷𝑒𝑒𝓃 𝓎𝑜𝓊..." In the aftermath lie broken relationships - between teammates, brothers, siblings, lovers. No realm is untainted by the brokenness the ninja team faced two and a half years ago. All that's left is bitterness. Yet as a new threat arises, our heroes must stand together again. Now a millionaire benefactress, a travel model, a security guard, a college student, a fiancee, a doctor-in-training, a life coach, and an anti-crime duo must set aside hatred and dreams and unfinished business for one last stand against evil. (Song quote derived from Taylor Swift's "The One)

Taking place shortly after the events of The Hands of Time: when a mission to save kidnapped kids goes wrong, a mysterious clan believes Jay holds the secret to a magic spell that can turn someone into a dragon. Nya, Kai, and the other ninja attempt to save Jay from the intelligent schemes of the clan. All the while, Jay learns more about the past of the Elemental Masters and has to decide whether or not to make a sacrifice to save his friends. I've never really written a fanfic before so go easy on me! I think this goes without saying but I don't own Ninjago or the character in Ninjago.

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.
