Summary
Despite dying a horrible death twice, Morro still doesn't get to rest. Instead he appears in a weird version of Ninjago City next to a different Lloyd and gets told (by the Green Ninja) that there is no Green Ninja.
Of course, Morro will turn this to his advantage, finally assuming his rightful destiny and becoming the leader of this Secret Ninja Force that's running around, right? There's no way he'll end up growing attached to this pitiful Lloyd imitation and help him reach his destiny or something. That's what good guys do.
. . .
Damn it.

Summary
A year has passed since Drago's defeat and Hiccup is doing his best to hold together the new Barbaric Alliance while barely holding together himself. He tries to bury the loss of his father and focus on being chief, but that becomes impossible when he and his dragon riders are mysteriously flung into the past, right in the middle of the final trial of dragon training.
Now without their dragons, stuck in the bodies of toddlers, surrounded by Vikings who are still at war with dragons, and with Hiccup slowly breaking apart, the riders struggle to find a way back to their time before they change the past, get discovered, or one of their many enemies finds their way to Berk.

TLDR: Lloyd's side in A Reality of Illusions where the other ninja fall into a (not really) coma and Lloyd is slowly losing control while waiting for them to wake up.

Summary
The first time Lloyd is kidnapped, he is terrified of what could happen to him. He just keeps his mouth shut, pulls through the pain, and hopes his friends will come for him before it's too late.
The latest time Lloyd is kidnapped (he has long since lost count), he is annoyed, because he got snatched off night patrol and wants to sleep. He tries to pass the time, messes around a bit, and makes sure to let his captors know that he won't be the one to pay when his siblings come for him.

Summary
The once-Secret Ninja Force finally defeats Garmadon and everything falls into place. Five of the ninja get cool new superpowers and they all become celebrities. Lloyd has a complete family and is finally seen as more than Garmadon's son. Even Meowthra becomes the city mascot, and what other city could say they have a giant cat for a mascot?
Yes, everything is perfect.
Now if only Kai could stop having dreams about a boy in green crying beside his bed.
---
TLDR: The movieverse is actually an illusion trapping the show ninja, and Kai is quick to take notice.

Summary
After the ground stopped shaking, the vikings quickly recomposed themselves, ready to fight whatever caused the explosion. The smoke slowly cleared to reveal the miraculously undamaged arena.
Hiccup was covering his head with his shield while Astrid stood with her axe at the ready facing the threat. The Gronckle was shakily hovering at the last tip of their triangle, shaking its head as if it was dazed. And in the middle of it was... a group of toddlers?

With or Without the Mask by Dancing_Shadow

Summary
Lloyd's life has surprisingly not been terrible this last year. It wasn't great, but it also wasn't terrible, not since he became a ninja. He got stronger, made friends, had people thank him for the first time with a genuine smile on their face, and thanks to that, life outside the mask became a bit more bearable. And he really wanted things to stay like that.
But when he is faced with a crisis without a mask to put on, how long can he and his teammates dance around the truth?
TLDR: One of Garmadon's attacks leaves Lloyd trapped, and he is forced to try and find his way out alongside his teammates... except he doesn't actually know it's them. This results in an eventual identity reveal and a lot of feels

Ridiculous Time Traveling (Because What Else Would the Potter/Weasley Family Do On a Free Day?) by Dancing_Shadow
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
28 Feb 2021

Summary
Usually the Great hall was a place full of chatter and life, especially during lunchtime. Usually during winter the students came here to escape the cold, and the smell of warm beverages and the light of fires filled the room with a feeling of home away from home.
Usually.
In 1997 Voldemort took over and everything changed. The air in the Great Hall was full of uncertainty and fear, the only sound being the clatter of forks and knifes on plates. The students, usually so cheerfull and talkative, were quiet and even most of the infamous Slytherins were acting tense. The warm light was replaced with cold, eerie, greenish glow. The school was no longer a happy or safe place.
But despite all of that, one thing didn't change. Hogwarts was still a place of magic and the Great hall a place where miracles can happen

Summary
The complex looked like any other. Dimly lit hallways devoid of any movement, save for the few droids that sometimes walked, crawled or rode through. One would almost think that there were no living creatures in the whole building. And they would have to venture into the lowest levels, pass many guards and listen very closely to be proven wrong.
A faint scream, muffled by the thick walls, did nothing to move the guarding droids. The torture went on and as did the droids, going about and doing whatever their programing told them to. Unseen by any of them, the first ship entered the planet's orbit.
