|A MANDALORIAN FANFIC · THE 2026 ONC ENTRY THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN--LOL! · BEING CONVERTED INTO AN INKSPIRED AUDIOBOOK OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS| When a hidden enemy rises from the ashes of the galaxy, Mando and Grogu embark on an adventure with Luke Skywalker and Rotta the Hutt to defeat the threat, as well as restore their unstable emotions after the Dragonsnake. *** After almost dying to the Dragonsnake a few months ago, Mando has noticed a shift in Grogu's behavior; he's overprotective and slacking off on training, clinging to him almost every second. Fearing that he's failing as a parent, Mando seeks out Jedi Master Luke Skywalker for help, since Grogu trained with him for a while, and brings Rotta the Hutt with him, to Luke's hesitation. However, on his way to Luke, he's attacked by a mysterious, invisible enemy, who injures him and damages his Mandalorian helmet. To honor the Creed, Mando replaces the damaged helmet with a new one, only to be thrust into an adventure across the galaxy when Luke senses dark energy from it, and they learn there may be a hidden base in the Outer Rim using technology for unethical purposes. Mando and his allies must now find the mastermind behind this new organization before darkness spreads across the galaxy, and Mando and Grogu lose contact with The Way forever.

Disclaimer - I don't own Harry Potter. This is one of my ONC projects for 2024. I'm using prompt one for this story, "Sometimes words speak louder than actions."

Faced with the challenges of a world that can't accept him and a government that wants him dead, Sebastian must decide: give in or fight.

No more Reach, mission successful.... right? Realization slapped Bart in the face, his perfect facade of a chipper-speedster-tourist tearing at its seams. He hadn't allowed himself to think that far ahead. He hadn't allowed false hope to motivate him, but now they had won, yet at what cost? He was stranded in the past with the trauma of a future no-one would ever come to understand. And despite the rule he set of no emotional attachments the consequences of his indirect involvement with Wally's death -something that wasn't meant to happen yet- hit him harder then he would ever admit. Nevertheless, he stood still; soaking it all in as he donned the signature red and yellow suit. He would became the replacement nobody wanted and he would do so wearing the smile he had rehearsed. (AU of Young Justice season 3. None of the characters or setting belong to me, they belong to their respected owners).

Centuries passed, and by chance encounter she was freed again. Vengeance would be hers.
