Summary
The broadcast cut across every screen in Ninjago City, television sets in shop windows, neon billboards, even the static hum of radios crackling in taxis. The words rolled heavy and cold:
“Effective immediately, elemental powers are hereby forbidden within the bounds of Ninjago. All elemental masters will be required to wear Vengestone suppression cuffs in public spaces, for the protection of our citizens.”
The announcement spread like wildfire, each repetition driving the message deeper into the air. The governor’s face was steady, composed, but his words carried a sharp finality that left no room for negotiation.
The ninja weren't watching it from the comfort of the monastery. They were still shaken, still trying to piece together what had just happened.
Hours earlier.What should have been a simple robbery had turned into a nightmare.
Or
The government fails to trust the ninja again but, some are done waiting for it.

Summary
Lloyd couldn't sleep. How could he?
His students had both gone with Ras.
His soul practically got ripped from him for several moments.
Jay lost his memories and absolutely hated them.
But speaking of the brunette, Lloyd found him sitting alone in the courtyard, where the moonlight poured in through the open area and pooled around Jay’s braced leg. The wind was light. Cold. It made the silence sharper somehow.
Jay didn’t look up when Lloyd approached.
He hesitated, standing just out of reach, unsure of what to say. What do you even say to someone who used to be your brother… and now barely knows your name?

Summary
Night patrols were supposed to be boring.
That’s what Kai had told himself as he leaped across rooftops, the cold air nipping at his skin. He and Lloyd had taken up the shift together, keeping watch over the city. But, of course, Lloyd had taken off ahead, disappearing into the streets below while Kai stayed high.
“Not exactly patrolling together if you ditch me,” Kai muttered into his comms, adjusting his earpiece.
Lloyd’s voice crackled through. “Relax, Kai. Just checking something out— I think I heard screaming. I’ll meet you at—”
A sharp crack cut him off.
Kai slowed to a stop. “Lloyd?”
A low, distorted growl came through the comms.
Then—the screaming started.
Kai’s stomach twisted. “Lloyd?! What’s going on?”
No response.
The comms crackled with static, but underneath it, he swore he heard Lloyd’s voice, low and strained.
"Run! GET AWAY!"
Or
In which a patrol gone wrong leaves Kai in a difficult position of trust, the ultimate question of how much faith is someone really willing to have?

Summary
HEAVY SPOILERS FOR SEASON 3. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
“No.” Lloyd stumbled backwards. “No way. I’m not – I’m not departed! I’m not dead! I’m not!” His hands shook. A chill passed through his body, making him shiver. “I – I can’t be dead, there’s no way – ”
“Well, you look dead. Kind of.” Morro mumbled the last sentence, tilting his head. “People who are departed look… like ghosts, I guess. With a blue tinge. Plus, they’re transparent. Living people look normal. But you…” The ghost’s voice trailed off. “You look… weird. Shimmery. Like you’re not quite dead, but not quite living either. Look.”
Lloyd looked down at his still shaking hands. His shimmering, blue - tinged slightly transparent hands. “What – how – ” Words refused to leave his mouth. “I don’t – why?”
Morro sighed and pointed to a familiar dragon - shaped figure in the distance. “If I had to guess, I’d say it had something to do with the guy who tried to eat me.”
OR: What if not all of Lloyd’s soul came back to him? What if Thunderfang took some of it with him to the Spectral Lanes?

Summary
Kai was already having a bad day before he was zapped to another dimension.
First, his powers were stolen by Aspheera, which she then used to attack Ninjago City (again), and the monastery is next on her "revenge" list. Things started looking up when Kai grabbed the scroll of Forbidden Spinjitzu and his powers returned--but then he got blasted to a world that's similar to his own, but not quite. A world with high school ninjas that desperately need a big brother to guide them. And hey, maybe they can guide Kai along the way too.
That is, if the scroll doesn't corrupt him first...
