"So once again you IDIOTS have failed to follow a simple order!" Aria shouts
The ninja all stood in front of her looking down.
"You FAILED to catch a common criminal! That had trucks FULL of who knows what!" Aria continues to shout "not to mention all the damage that water tornado did to the village!"
Nya stays quiet and looks even more disappointed.
"Well uh" Cole speaks "we found out what was in the trucks.. it was vengestone"
"Ugh" Aria leans back in her throne
"It was our negligence that Miss Demeanor got away" Lloyd says "it won't happen again"
"My Vampire Knights are an elite force used for serious matters and are far too busy to deal with every criminal, that's your job as ninja" Aria tells them "it's what I pay you for"
"Wait.. we get paid?" Jay looks at the other ninja
"Yes" Zane replies
"did you think money magically appears in our bank account?" Nya questions
"well.." Jay looks away
"Seriously" Kai facepalms
"Anyway" Lloyd takes a step forward "as for the village we will repair it, and as for Nya's issue we'll get to the bottom of it so these accidents won't happen again"
"Good" Aria crosses her legs "your dismissed"
The ninja all let out a breath of relief that she wasn't punishing them and started heading out. Lloyd takes one last look at Aria before following his team out the door.
A couple days later Lloyd enters the throne room where Aria sat in her throne once again, waiting for him. She looked exhausted.
"What did you want Lloyd?" Aria asks yawning "I'm busy and I'd rather not see you"
"Yeah I know" Lloyd says "I just needed to get your permission to leave, we're going on a journey to find out what's wrong with Nya's powers and apparently according to Wu us ninja aren't allowed to leave unless given permission from you"

"Yeah sure" Aria waves him away "just don't leave the city completely unguarded, leave at least one or two hear"
"Of course" Lloyd bows "thank you.. Aria-"
"If you're going to say sorry or something again for last month, I don't wanna hear it ok" Aria looks at him "You can't bring back the dead"
"...I know" Lloyd turns and leaves
"But I can" Aria stands up and leaves the room with Hanabusa following
"With most of the ninja gone you can focus on your other work more without alarming them" Hanabusa says
"Which works out for me" Aria says as she heads down into the basement
-
A couple days later Hanabusa approaches Aria who's in the basement working on something
"Lord Aria, the ninja have returned" Hanabusa reports
Aria finishes and sighs "Alright, that will have to do for now then"
They head up into the throne room where only Cole stood.
"Hey cuz" Cole greets
"So you're the messenger this time?" Aria questions walking over to him
"Sorta, can you give me a ride to Shintaro?" Cole asks
"Cloud Kingdom?" Aria questions "the ninja just returned from the sea and you want to go to Shintaro?"
"Yeah, you see I need Vanya to protect something for me" Cole explains "so could you-"
"fine" Aria turns to Hanabsua "I'll be back"
The two walk outside where Aria transforms into a dragon and looks at Cole.
"Ooo the Empress is escorting me herself" Cole chuckles "I feel honored"
Aria blows smoke at him and he coughs before laughing.
"ok ok" Cole climbs onto her back "let's go"
Once Cole is steady Aria takes off flying, she roars as she soars through the sky. Even if she's only giving Cole a ride, she loves being able to fly. Her dragon form is what connects her closer to her father, she feels like he's flying right beside her. The flowing air and freedom of flying through the sky, it's great.

They soon arrive at Shintaro where they are greeted by the guards and Vanya. Cole climbs down.
"Oh my gosh" Vanya squeals "It's a fully gown dragon, it's black scales are so pretty and they glisten in purple, it's so cool"
"Vanya I didn't properly introduce you two last time, this is my cousin" Cole gestures to Aria
"Your cousin.. is a dragon?" Vanya looks confused
Cole turns and looks at Aria "hey don't make me look like I'm mentally insane, transform back"
Aria rolls her eyes before she transforms back into her human form.
"Lady Aria!" Vanya shouts surprised "..oh right you were that black dragon fighting the Grief Bringer"
"Yeah, Aria and I are cousins, she's also the Empress of Ninjago" Cole explains
"Oh, nice to formally meet you" Vanya bows
"Yes" Aria bows as well
"well sorry to have to cut my visit short, but I need you to protect something for me" Cole tells Vanya
"sure what is it?" Vanya asks
Aria glances out at the city as Cole and Vanya hide the Storm Amulet in the vault.
"Seal the vault and double the guard, Hailmar" Vanya commands
"Yes, my queen. But, what is it?" Hailmar asks
"Something that must never see the light of day again" Cole replies
After saying their farewells the two leave and head back to Ninjago where they went their separate ways.
"How many more are left?" Aria asks Hanabusa as they walk through the halls
"Not much more my lord" Hanabusa replies
"Only about 143" Kaname informs her
Aria sighs "alright, back to work"

Issekai Mockery
The story begins with Alvaro Brad, a genius young man in his teens. Alvaro excels at every subject of his school, chemistry, physics, mathematics and programming are some subjects that he enjoys the most. That seems to be the first impression that people have about him though. Alvaro has another side to him, he is addicted to gambling. Since nothing seems to challenge him anymore, he has taken upon himself to beat luck itself. The only moment he feels any kind of joy is when he takes risks and gambling has given him exactly that. After skipping class to gamble yet again, he sees something on the way to the club. After looking closer he finds a small coin on the ground and as soon as he picks it up he is transported to another world. -Issekai Mockery is exactly as the title suggests, a satire fiction novel making fun of the Issekai genre in subtle and not so subtle ways with the sole purpose of putting a smile on the readers' faces, the novel will feature a lot of Issekai and mmorpg jokes. Don't forget to comment and rate the fiction as I want to listen to some feedback.

Hattoran Chronicle
There is a hostile sky above me. Man will never conquer space. He may live in it, but he will never conquer it. The sky above is void, and very black, and very hostile. -- Joseph Kittinger A pair of extragalactic supersoldiers are betrayed and stranded in the Milky Way at the end of the 29th century, potentially shaking the balance of power within the galaxy, but there's far more going on than anyone realizes. Allies are few in a galaxy eager to learn their secrets, and their ancient enemy continues to threaten the existence of the entire universe. The two Hattorans are forced to rely on each other and a few unlikely allies to solve a problem they for once can't simply fight their way out of.(Technically Star Trek fanfic but outside of existing storylines and I'm considering how easily the serial numbers could be filed off) This is all in progress and constructive feedback is strongly encouraged! I've got a lot in the air as I bring this all together.

The Crossing Vol. 2
Life isn’t always fair. While most have the blessing of having two loving parents, Glacia Weiss is living another reality. The Gardenia, a warrior whose soul is half dragon, was murdered in the dead of night. This warrior was Glacia’s mother. Who witnessed the murder at only eight years old. The man who committed murder was none other than her father, Wiley Weiss. Unknowing of what would happen to her, she escaped the estate and fled the city into the darkness of the night as the dragon’s soul bound itself to its offspring. Days later, she was found in the wild by a woman named Lavia Achilles, the leader of an order called the Tarragon, who took her in. For reasons she didn’t understand, the Tarragon never returned her, and the details of her mother’s death never went beyond her being murdered to the public. Over ten years, the scene of her mother’s death had replayed day after day as the only one who knew what really happened that night. Driving her to escape the order and find her father, only to fail repeatedly. It wasn’t until the day she became one of them where freedom felt possible. On orders, she’s sent to the edge of the Elysia border. Miles from where, a year prior, the port town of Morath was burned to the ground from a dragon attack. Now haunted by what’s believed to be a fragmented being of the fire deity: The Ash of Ebon. To her, it looks more of an opportunity to earn her freedom. To confront her mother’s murderer and do the same justice unto him.
