"Now are you sure all the basic rules can keep order here until I'm back" Aria questioned packing her bag
"Yes princess" Alexander replied "don't worry I'll keep everyone safe"
Aria sighed "Alright I'm going, stay safe"
"we will, come back home soon princess" Alexander said worried
Aria smiled "I will" she then ran off
-
Jay's looking through the medallion "I spy, uh...another tree!"
"Jay, how did you ever become a Ninja? Seriously" Cole questions annoyed
"Ugh, will Zane just get his bird already and get out of there" Kai said
Jay aligns the medallion with three lights "Guys, look!"
He gives the medallion to Kai who looks through "It matches up. That must be the Temple of Light"
Cole laughs "Jay, I take back everything I said. You are a fine Ninja. Not finer than me, but a fine—"
They hear a Warrior talking and sees Zane, who finally got the Falcon, being cornered.
Zane looks down at his falcon "I sense I may have gotten myself into a predicament, my broken friend"
"A Ninja, here? Seize him!" Garmadon shouted
The ninja run over to Zane and together they all ran.
"They're getting away. No! Do something!" Garmadon shouts
They try to climb over the fence but the Army throws spears at them. When they ran over the bridge, a plank breaks under Kai.
"Hurry up. We're halfway there" Cole says helping him up
The Army is closing in on them from both sides.
Garmadon grabs popcorn from a Stone Scout "Excellent" he laughs "This is too good"
"We've been in situations like this a hundred times. Quick, who's got an idea?" Kai questions
"I say we fight" Cole replied
"With what? We don't have powers" Kai sighs "What about you, Zane? What do your computers say?"

"I got us into this mess. I don't know how to get us out" Zane said frustrated
"Where's Aria when you need her?" Kai questioned
Someone jumped down in front of them. They pointed a gun at the stone warriers, the ninja heard loud bangs and saw little shots of purple energy come out and hit Stone warriors that broke into pieces. She turned around and blew the smoke from the weapon,
"Say her name and she shall appear" Kai said happily
"Nice to see you boys too" Aria said before her weapon turned back into one of her fans
"Faciating, your elemental weapons can change form" Zane said amazed
"Yep now let's go" Aria said putting her fan away "Jump off and use your hoods as parachutes"
The ninjas did as they were told and ran back to the bounty with Aria.
"Aria" Lloyd said happily running to hug her "you're here, and hot"
The ninjas gave Lloyd a look
He turned red "It just slipped out!"
"I came just in time to save those idiots now prepare for battle. We've got company" Aria said turning around
"They were spotted? By one? Two?" Wu questioned
"How about...all of them" Kai said sheepishly
"Did you locate the Temple of Light?" Misako questioned
"It's at the top of the mountain. I hope those vehicles are ready because we could sure use them now" Kai said
"We've also packed another surprise in the back. Perhaps it can be of use" Nya kisses Jay
"Another Nya surprise" Jay says happily
Misako turned to Lloyd "You'll have to go too. Be safe"
"We will" Lloyd said
They climb in the Earth Driller with Aria staring at them
"They forgot a seat for Aria" Kai said
Aria climbed in and sat on Lloyd's lap "No they didn't, I have my own seat" she wrapped her arms around Lloyd's neck "this seat is more comfortable"

Lloyd's face turned red again and sighed "Fine" he wrapped his arms around her waist to keep her from falling off
"Whatever you do, do not stop until you get to the Temple of Light. Our survival depends on it" Wu commanded
"This time, we'll stick to the plan" Kai said
Wu nodded "Good luck, Ninja"
The Ninja head for the Temple of Light, barely keeping ahead of the Stone Army. They dug underground to the bottom of the mountain.
"Well, that's about as far as this baby will go. We'll have to do the rest on our own" Cole said and they all climbed out
"But we'll never make it up the mountain before they arrive" Lloyd said worried
"Well, then let's see what my sister packed" Kai finds the Fire Mech in the back and activates it "Oh, I love my sis"
The Stone Warriors approached fast.
"These guys just don't stop" Jay said preparing to fight
"No" Aria took out her fans and they transformed into two guns, one black and one white, she looked at the ninja "I'll hold them off, you all go"
"If you say so, climb on guys" Kai says, the ninja climb onto the fire mech and they take off
Aria pointed her guns at the warriors and started firing "Come on show me what you got, or are you too afraid to go against your master"
The Stone Warriors tried to pass her but she created walls of fire "nice try, nobody's getting past me without a fight"
They started fighting, Aria was getting overpowered, stone warriors were able to pass her but she was able to take care of more then half of them. As a golden dragon appeared in the sky Aria felt dizzy and passed out.

The Many Lives of Cadence Lee
Cadence Lee thought she was a normal girl, perhaps a little well to do, but not exceptionally so. She had her college classes, she had her job that her uncle gave her, and she had a nice boyfriend who was sweet if a little awkward. Except, when a mugger accosts Cadence and her boyfriend attempts to wrestle a gun away from the criminal, Cadence ends up shot. A normal girl, with the kind of wound Cadence had, would die. Cadence managed to do that part. But a normal girl wouldn't then open her eyes again and learn that death is not as permanant for her as it is for other people. She can be reborn again, and again. Each time stronger and with new abilities. The catch? Any world she is born into, she can never return to. She has infinite lives, but only one life for each. So begins The Many Lives of Cadence Lee. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
8 113Genetic Parole
Jean is just trying to get by like everyone else. Not that everyone else is doing so good, unless apocalypses are your thing. Does it count as an apocalypse if death just leads to an existential crises on the nature of reality and consequence? Besides that it's just your normal adventure story. Aliens conquer planet, aliens store minds in a virtual prison, aliens loose track of plucky hero that slips through the cracks. Plucky hero keeps his sanity by disgarding sanity as a concept, and travels the virtual multiverse in search of his body and his home. The usual.

Bloody battles and unseen creatures pave his way. His aptitude allows him to survive but not all do. Some may ask why the things had happened or why so many had to die in the tutorial. Yet, these questions became irrelevant as the very earth crumbles to dust. Now all the survivors fight for their survival in the abyss. Did the tutorial try to prepare them for this? Bloody battles become a norm, and striving onwards is the new goal in this harsh world. Alex fights and tries to help the people, only to lose it all.
