《Jade Garmadon: Lloyd Garmadons little brother》Chapter 17 ~A Lead
Advertisement
Shoving a spoon full of chocolate froyo into my mouth, I listened to Kai and Zane talk about the clues.
"Lloyd? Are you listening?" Kai nundged my arm.
"Huh? Oh..y-yeah. Can you just repeat the last thing you said?" I stuck the plastic spoon in my ice cream.
"I said that while Misako looks in the backpack for possibly more clues and I will look at the scarf for maybe DNA clues. While you, Kai, Jay, Cole and Nya search the city for any hints of who Mr. C is." Zane replied. I nodded and ate more froyo.
I threw out the small, empty froyo container into the trash, I noticed two guys near the back looking at me. I looked at them and they turned their backs on me. I shrugged it off and walked back over to the booth Kai and Zane were at. As I walked over, a guy walked in and slammed into me, and walked to the back, keeping his head down, and his face was hidden by his coat. I glarred slightly and sat back down in the booth.
"What was that dudes problem?" Kai muttered.
"I dont know, but he seems kinda...suspicious." I growled under my breath.
"Well lets just ignore it. We have bigger issues to worry about right now." Zane redirected our attention back to thinking of a plan.
When I woke up from my slumber, I noticed I wasnt in my prison room anymore. I was actually locked up in a real jail cell. The floor was freezing cold and I had no blankets. Not even a pillow or a bed.
an evil chuckle came from beyond the cell bars. There was a man standing in the shadows. All I could see was his bright blood colored eyes.

"Who are you?!" I yelled at him and clentched my fists.
He sneered
"...Sensei Wu??"
"NO!! I am not that old timer tea lover beardo!"
"Well sorry but he goes by sensei wu and you did say i should call you sensei."
"Brat! What I mean is that im your teacher! Im going to teach you how to use your powers my way." He grinned, showing his daggered teeth.
"M-Mr. C?!" I yelped
"Thats right. Your first "training" starts tommorrow, brat." He gave a cold, heartless laugh and walked away.
"HEY!! MY BROTHER WILL FIND ME AND SAVE ME!! HE WILL KICK YOUR BUTT!!" I yelled, but Mr. C was already gone. I cant stay here! I have to escape! I turned into my shadow form and tried phasing through the bars.
Dang it! Venge stone bars!!
I jumped around the shadows in the cell, trying to find a way to escape, but no luck. I growled and kicked the bars. I kept kicking and punching, hoping the bars would break, but no luck. When I turned into my human form, my knuckles were bleeding from punching the jail cell bars.
After what I believe was hours of punching and kicking the bars, my hands were more bloody. I finally gave up and collapsed to my hands and knees.
"Someone help me!" I cried out as tears streamed down my face from the pain from my hands.
Lloyds pov:
"Got anything Zane?" I looked over his shoulder as he kept observing the scarf.
"Only Jades DNA so far..." Zane sighed. "Any clues about Mr. C?"
"Not yet. Jay, Cole, Kai, and Nya went back out to question some people." I looked at the purple scarf, and thought of Jade. I pictured him running right into my arms. We would hug and never let go, afraid that if we did let go, we would loose each other again. I sighed and sadly came back to reality from my fantasy.

"Hey Lloyd, how do you think Jade is doing?" Zane questioned me.
"Terrified. Hes only a kid, and Mr C has already got to him." I sighed again. Zane patted my shoulder.
"We will rescue him, Lloyd." He reasured me. I nodded and smiled a bit. My phone went off and I read the message.
"Lloyd, get to the froyo place now! You have to see this!" -Kai
"Hey Zane, Ill be back. Kai needs me down at the froyo place." I shouted as I ran out the door.
><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
I ran up to the froyo shop to see the three guys and Nya standing outside.
"Hey guys, whats going on?" I looked at everyone.
"Read the label on this cup." Kai handed me a froyo cup.
'Ryker Carsons Froyo. The power is within the froyo'
"I dont understand...why is this so important." I raised an eyebrow.
"Think about it, dude." Jay furrowed his brows. "His last name is Carson....Mr C....ring a bell?"
My eyes widen, relising that we just might have found our first lead!
*Next day*
Jades pov:
I was startled awake when Mr C. pounded on the bars.
He grinned evilly. I gulped and slowly crawled back.
"Oh please save me soon Lloyd." I thought to myself.

The Vitaean Chronicles - Volume I: The Sanguine Prince
NOTE: Chapters 02 - 19 are currently slated for review and rewrite following the Conclusion of Act I. Please bear this in mind! When tragedy strikes Arcturus Valoura, he is ripped from his carefree existence and thrown into a world of politics and peril, where today's friend is tomorrow's foe. Bereft of the knowledge and skills needed to survive in his new reality, he will need to find his place within a realm that mixes magic and science in impossible ways. He will need to learn the secrets of the mysterious System that allows him to guide his potential for growth even as he struggles to unlock the powers needed to keep himself alive. In the darkest, and most desolate places of an ancient land he will have to find the answers to forbidden questions, and terrible secrets long purged from the histories of mankind. And in so doing, shake the very foundations of reality itself. Release Schedule: Tuesdays (I may post on off-days if I get a lot done). Advanced Chapters available on Patreon starting May 4th 2021. Discord Community: https://discord.gg/3tHKHAx7Ye The Vitaean Chronicles are a debut LitRPG High Fantasy series written with the intent of filling a niche I've yet to see filled anywhere else. This is my first novel of this kind, so please be patient with me. Throughout this story, I will endeavour to create an evolving and expansive narrative anchored around believable characters, compelling plotlines, and a consistent and sensible magic system. The purpose of this work is to create what I believe to be a relatively unique piece of fiction, drawing inspiration from many great stories that have come before from the likes of Tolkien, Jordan, Hertbert, Goodkind, Pratchett, Martin, and several others. My goal is not to create a masterpiece, but simply to create a story that someone can read and re-read with the same joy, same frustration, and same investment each time. This story will contain violence, politics, Shakespearian drama, tongue-in-cheek references, adult content, and well-crafted relationships of both platonic and romantic natures. I will not promise you will like every choice I make. I can only guarantee that I will do my best to create a story I, and you, can be proud of. As I progress, I will have room to incorporate fan-made characters for those interested in making their mark within the tapestry of this tale (with the customary disclaimer that they do so while waiving any rights to future profit, lol). Thank you to Royal Road for giving me the platform to do that, and thank you dear readers past, present, and future for choosing to come on this journey with me. Finally, just to cover myself: This work is Copyrighted to the Author herein known as 'Hannibal Forge', and recreation, distribution, or re-release of any material herein in a commercial or public capacity absent permission from the Author can and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the Law.

A messenger appears; our 1,000 year punishment for the crimes of our ancestors has passed. Once again we will have access to the energies of the ancient Elements, to the higher energy made of the combined Elements.

Dear Spellbook (Rewrite)
Live. Study. Repeat. Tal never saw himself as an adventurer, but the call to adventure never much cared for his opinion. Despite his best efforts, his search for answers on the murder of his parents ever draws him into danger. Accompanied by a group of seasoned warriors, thus far Tal has gotten by on his own meager magical talents, but when one day he wakes up to find himself back in his bed of the night before, he is faced with a challenge he must conquer alone. What to expect: This story was born of an attempt to create in world lore reasons for many of the mechanics and tropes of D&D, but you do not need to know of them to enjoy the story. It's a single POV time loop story with slow paced progression fantasy elements. The story is not one of fast-paced power ups and non-stop action, but as it progresses, the action picks up. There is a lot of magic system exploration on a system built to unify the diverse magic of D&D into one cohesive magic system. The setting is an original world with familiar races and monsters but with new unique origins and motivations. Book 1 is complete. Book 2 is complete and coming out M-W-F. The complete book 2 is available on Patreon
