"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"

Legends of The Wesh: Lochley
The Universe is held together by something. It is an undisputable truth but nobody knows what that something is. People claim that it is connected by The Path of Legends, where Gods traversed trying to find the meaning of their own existence. Others claim that the universe is a Tree, connecting worlds with its extending branches and giving life-bearing fruits to its inhabitants. Several even claimed that the Universe is just a colony of ants, that this universe and the worlds in it are just as insignificant as insects. In one of the Worlds in it, the arrival of someone signaled great changes. Gods will die, Trees will Rot, Insects will burn. Those at the top had fallen and they will upend the worlds trying to claim what was theirs. Those at the bottom have had enough of scraps and they yearned to devour the fruits of the worlds. Those that were innocent and caught in between had no choice but to persist, lest they get erased by the surging tides. Nobody knows where will they end, but everybody knew where they started. They will not be judged, they will not be rebuked, they will not be curbed, they will not be vanquished. The universe is their canvas and it’s time — time to paint their truths upon it. Azrael was born as a prince in the warring world of Ost. Inheriting the title but not its privileges and oppressed by his siblings in every step of his life, he had no choice but to be subservient to their whims until circumstances spiraled him to the abyss, to a new world, and to more agreeable companions. But is he truly free from the past or will it continue to hound him to his new life? Elira had one wish… to be known more than as an offspring of the Great Phasol Family. Talented, hardworking, and stubborn, she struggled to break free from the influence of her family. Everything had been going well in her life but is she strong enough to resist the upheaval and truths of the world? William grew up in an orphanage with nothing to his name. Regaled by various tales of fantasy and greatness by his caretakers, he reached adulthood with the goal of having a legend of his own. Will he make his mark on the world or be forgotten like an ant; crushed by the boot of an unsuspecting traveler. The world of Lochley has been at peace for centuries and its undercurrents are growing restless from waiting… waiting for that spark of opportunity to ignite and swallow the world whole. Some will cause it, some will resist it, and some be drowned by it. Which one will you be?

The Last Marshal
Weird West Fantasy Noir Once the Republic Marshals brought order to the chaotic lands along the Frontier, facing dangers both human and supernatural with ancient wisdom and a six-gun —but that was a long time ago. Destroyed by conspiracy and betrayal, all that remains of that secretive order is one nameless man on a trek though the West seeking revenge on the woman he blames for the Marshals' fall and his disgrace. When a visitor from our world joins him on his journey, they together must confront the horrors of a strange land, the mysteries of the past and the real meaning of their quest for justice. The world of Tellus is what 19th Century Earth would have looked like if the stories of Poe, Ambrose Bierce, Lovecraft and William Hope Hodgeson were real. History in this world moves slower. The old faiths persist and civilization never conquered the dark corners of the map, at least not without being inextricably changed. Technology and culture takes a little longer to evolve in this land, as people here tend to spend more time pursuing their elaborate revenge plots or trying to avoid being the next sacrifice to the Outer Gods rather than advancing science or statecraft. Imagine Cormac McCarthy by way of Edgar Rice Burroughs, though a little less testosterone-drenched than that description would imply. Three caveats: First, there are deep mysteries here, including how such a world came to be and who controls it. Second, this world is not wholly unconnected from our own. There is a historical point of divergence, but in the distant past. To paraphrase Twain: history in this world is not a repeat of our own, but it does often rhyme. And finally, this is not a setting that lends itself to happy endings.

Demonizing Matters
A high fantasy drama about a young woman who finds out a demon secret. This secret sparks a growing conflict between demons and humans. While trying to save her own life and dealing with the unexpected consequences of her actions, she falls in love with a hated demon. We follow the drama of Lita, alongside a cast of several other POV characters, as she discovers secrets (both open and purposefully hidden), makes well intentioned but sometimes disastrous decisions, and encounters prejudices and truths. Demons may be evil… or not. Humans may be good… or not. God is aloof… or not. Publishing every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. This is my first real work! Super excited to be publishing! I don’t spend a lot of time describing gore, sex, trauma or any other type of scene that would be labeled as mature. I've labeled the story as mature in every way more because I don't quite understand the standard and don't know if I've crossed the line at all (and I'd rather be safe than get my story rejected for under labeling ;)). Mostly I hint, start the scene then interrupt/fade out, and in general let the reader know it happens but without making it too explicit. (I’d love to hear how I did on this! And if it was still entertaining/informative without being traumatizing.) This is what I prefer to read myself so that’s what I write. I’m not apologizing. ;) If I mislabeled my mature content it was by accident. And, yes, the pacing was also on purpose. Beyond that, I welcome any feedback you want to give! Enjoy the story!
