Fairy Tail: Shadows (3rd Book In the "Intertwined Fates" Series!) by Cryptic_Eyes

Book #3 Lucy sacrificed herself to save Fiore; to stop the machine Loren and Lores constructed to destroy everything. But in order for it to have been destroyed, Lucy forced Natsu to let go of her over the cliff, falling to her death. But...wait. When Loren approaches a devastated Natsu she says that the one responsible for their mind control was a man long forgotten, who's true purpose was to get his one and only true prize: Lucy. And, Loren tells Natsu and the others they can rescue her, but they have to go to the place where shadows lie; the Black Stars. {Used from my previous story, Fairy Tail: The Luminous Star of Caballeen!} There, Lucy is trapped, being held as a trophy by the man and frozen in time. If Loren and Lores open the portal, they can go inside and save her. However, there is a catch; only one person can go inside. And, as soon as they enter the Black Stars, they would be overrun with Shadow monsters; hundreds of them all over the place. The man who has Lucy has control of the Black Stars, and would send the pursuer into different realms to battle different monsters. But Natsu doesn't care. He'd do anything to get Lucy back, and to save her from being trapped all alone forever. Automatically claiming he'd go and not let anyone else take his place, Natsu dives in to the land of the shadows; the Black Stars. Will Natsu save Lucy and bring her home, back to him and the others? Find out what happens in all the chaos in Fairy Tail: Shadows.

The Land of the Purple Ring by DeborahJNatelson

The clockwork man is crafted, to begin with-his father forced by that terrible tyrant Time to create her a slave for all eternity. His brain boasts balance wheels and torsion springs; he can wind himself up with a key in his side; and, most importantly, his gyroscopic tourbillon heart glimmers with pure diamond. He is a living being and he is art, and he refuses to remain a slave forever. He therefore slips through Time's fingers as the Sands of Time slip through the cracks of reality (at least, when the time cats aren't using them as a litter box). Among astounding adventures, despite harrowing hardships, and in between escaping interfering enchanters, the clockwork man seeks his imagination, his purpose, and his name.

The Loop of Destiny by Zenosine

To all those who have felt the weight of time's relentless embrace, who have searched for meaning in the endless cycle of existence, and who have dared to dream of a future beyond the confines of the present. May this story ignite your imagination and remind you that even in the face of the unknown, there is always hope. This story began as a whisper in the darkest corners of my mind, a haunting melody of time loops and forgotten realities. It was a tale of a man trapped in a cyclical prison, a prisoner of his own past, yearning for a future that seemed perpetually out of reach. As I delved deeper into this enigmatic concept, I realized that it was more than just a simple narrative of time travel and paradox. It was a reflection on the human condition, on our struggle with time, our yearning for meaning, and our constant search for something beyond the limitations of our existence.

Rise of Fire: Dragons Reborn [COMPLETED] by RosaleeRain

The world had long since forgotten the age of dragons, those creatures that had once ruled the skies as gods had long since disappeared after the conclusion of the Great Demon Wars. Dragons became nothing more than a fading legend, a story to tell children at bedtime. But the gods could not let the dragons die, for they were the last defense against the demon armies and the dark god Vekkar. Talia had been born and raised in a world of darkness acting as an agent of Hephatus, goddess of assassins and death. She knew only a life of killing, sometimes for justice, sometimes for honor, always for money. Her morals were opaque at best. But when she's deployed to the city of Arboros she finds herself thrust into a world of political games, opposing powers, and constant threat. Nowhere was safe even for her. Her goals became muddied, and then lost altogether when she meets the Dwarven Prince. Bromyr had spent the last five years of his life chasing ghosts, desperate to find the lost dragon eggs. His people thought him crazy, his father stripped him of his titles, but he never gave up. Eventually his effort bore fruit and he hastily made way to return to his homeland only to get caught up in the city of Arboros. It was there that he met an intriguing half-giant, a woman who ignited a fire everywhere she went. In the end she was the one who inadvertently brought about the new age of dragons. What could go wrong when an ill tempered assassin becomes the first dragon rider of a new age? ***Cover made by annie1loves1you***
