Summary
Kai gets transported through time to the 21st century and wakes up in the middle of a stormy beach, nowhere near his home, but familiar in the least. Familiar and yet so different. Kai used to live near the stars, a Celestial with a home.
Though he's unsure where home is.
His memories are jumbled up, unsure whether they're lies or some cruel joke his father played to teach him a lesson.
Riding on the string of his only clear memory, Kai believes humans are still at war with Celestials. He then meets a little girl he knows he's met before, a distant relative perhaps? Kai also becomes acquainted with four other boys as a result of his poor attempt to steal food.
They soon become his family and maybe something more.
Kai doesn't know his home anymore, doesn't know who he even is anymore.
So the six children work together to help figure out where Kai's from because family helps family.
But he couldn't possibly have a family; they weren't his home. But then again, where exactly was his home?
Home. Where is it?

Summary
From the outside, the ninja have it all. Fame, fortune, a noble mission, and a team that's like family. But things aren't always what they seem, and when the cameras aren't around, life for Kai and Lloyd is a living hell. All they want to do is survive, but Cole, Jay, and Zane aren't making it easy. Ever since Lloyd was chosen over him as the green ninja, Cole is cruel and controlling, and not even Wu can stop the damage he's doing.
sorry if this permanently damages your view of Cole
(i love you cole just not this version of you)
PLEASE read the trigger warnings before reading! Unless stated otherwise, each chapter won't have specific warnings to avoid spoilers.

Summary
He raised up to Kai, clutching both robes that dragged down his naked shoulders, then halting midway. “You need to learn how to forget.” Forget nobodies.
“Forget?” Kai huffed. “You’re one to talk.”
He scowled. The Green Ninja is the only thing for him, the only way to prove himself worthy. Without that, Morro would be nothing. But even if Kai becomes worthless—or lose his friends, sister, or her, even if he becomes nothing or lose everything, he’d always be the same boy he grieved with. He’ll always mean something to Morro.
Even so, if he still longs for her despite…
“Am I only a ghost to you?” Morro said.
A story of the cursed general who was searching for vengeance upon his name, but gets distracted—very distracted during the mission.
