Summary
Nya still remembers what it felt like to die. Not an experience she would've liked to repeat again, at least not for several decades. But when she and the other ninja visit a certain pyramid full of death traps, she finds herself doing just that, over, and over, and over...
Because every time Nya dies, time gets reset, and unfortunately there's no way to leave the pyramid unless she can figure out how to survive all its booby traps AND make sure everyone on the team stays alive, without waking up the evil locked within, and without losing her sanity in the process...
Tl;dr: Nya is stuck in a time loop while she and the ninja explore Aspheera's pyramid.

Summary
The day he meets the Smith siblings is the day that changes Lloyd Garmadon's life forever. In between training as a ninja in order to defeat his evil father Lord Garmadon, he discovers many things for the first time that other people take for granted; playing video games with another player, lending and borrowing comic books, talking about crushes, surprise birthday parties, having a friend to sit with at lunch, a sister to help with homework, a brother to protect from bullies, and a family that supports him. In the year leading up to the rise of the Green Ninja, Lloyd experiences some of the best moments of his life, worthy of filling his yearbook with.

Summary
A month and a half after he and Kai were rescued, Lloyd still isn't over the three days he was held captive and tortured by Morro. It's hard to move on when the face of his torturer is none other than that of his once trusted friend, whom he'd regarded as an older brother but now no longer feels safe around.
Kai too can't seem to forget the sensations and memories of his own hands hurting his little brother, and is consumed with guilt and self-hatred over his part in Lloyd's traumatic ordeal, carrying a terrible secret that could forever destroy the once strong bond they shared.
While both try to move on from what happened in their separate ways, supported by their friends and family, neither of them will ever feel whole until they can figure out how to face each other again.

Summary
Being possessed and then stabbed by his own teammate and brother had been a bad enough experience for Lloyd, but Morro unfortunately has more misery in store for him; incensed at being defeated and left with nothing but his hatred for the boy who took the destiny he believes should have been his, Morro's goal is nothing less than causing as much pain to Lloyd, both physically and emotionally, as possible... by forcing the person who promised to protect him to be the one to hurt him.
Tl;dr: Morro kidnaps Lloyd and tortures him in various ways while possessing Kai, who can't do anything but watch, and the other ninja try to find out where they are.

Summary
Lloyd figured that being targeted by a vengeful dragon the size of a skyscraper was probably a bad thing.
Especially when it involved him being the Conduit.
Hopefully nothing bad could happen—hey, wait, what is that glowing light coming out of him...?

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
Lloyd knows he isn't going to have a great time at high school. He's never had friends his whole life. It's not like his life is gonna change any time sooner... will it?
Or: TLNM prequel aka how Lloyd befriends the other ninja (EDIT: Okay now this has became an au because I very stupidly forgot two main details about the movie so this can't be canon anymore ): )
Edit: 300+ kudos! Wow... Though I feel like I have a huge responsibility to satisfy my readers as I continue this fic... Thanks guys! 🎉
EDIT: back from the hiatus!
EDIT: (13/4/2025) Just to clarify, if the non backdated date is showing up for the last chapter, this fic was actually completed in June 2024. It started on February of the same year and I was fairly new to writing fanfictions. While there shouldn't be anything wrong with the grammar here, keep in mind that this was written by a fifteen year old who was dealing with exams at the same time. So it's not the best, lol. There will be a rewrite, but I'm not sure when I'll start writing it.
