When Jay Walker was seven-years-old his entire world was flipped upside down. For that was the day that Ninjago, the only home he had ever known fell to King Nadakhan's control. The king's followers slaughtered hundreds of thousands of innocent families. They captured the countries children to be his slaves, killing anyone that resisted them where they stood. The king now resides in what's left of Ninjago city, his massive castle resting on the burial ground for thousands. Having hundreds of guards he controls everything, leaving no room for mistake. Or escape. Every slave dreams of escaping his grasp, especially Jay.
But when he falls for Nya, one of the kings many young brides, he must make a choice. To attempt escape and most likely be murdered, or in similar fashion stay and be sent to die in one of the kings useless wars.
Zane, Nadakhan's most trusted general has discovered a plot the king is planning that may spell doom for everyone, including himself. Cole, a guard in the castle that may have just fallen in love with a feisty royal with a vengeance against the king. Lloyd, the son of one the king's advisers finds his heart does not lay with his father's plans. And finally, Kai a man who gained his lordship through a despicable deal.
Will Jay and Nya escape? Can Zane figure out the kings plan? Will Cole have a happy ending? Will Lloyd be able to face his father? Can Kai ever redeem himself?
Read Pieces in a Game to find out!
Note: This is a rewrite of a story I began about a year ago. This time around it will be Jaya centric, but I've thrown in some Kailor and Coliel because im sticking to canon stuff rn. (Well relatively canon) Anyways hopefully this will be better the second time around! And yes I will try to finish it this time :) and it will be wayy more fast-paced and less descriptive. Expect a few short chapters a week, folks!
