The early hours of the morning fell on a quiet ocean as a Fire Nation cruiser cut through the water.
At such an early hour, the ship would normally be staffed by a skeleton crew that’s main job was to ensure nothing went wrong with the engine and they didn’t crash into anything during the night while the day crew got their rest.
Unfortunately, they didn’t have such a luxury.
Having lost the chance to even make an attempt on the Avatar, Zuko was angry. No, he didn’t j...

Sitting on her bed as thunder boomed outside, Ruby idly kicked her legs while listening to Nora’s tale of what happened in the past week. Needless to say, thing were fairly tense at Beacon and the entirety of Vale as well, but she didn’t let that get her down.
I mean... Her team was pretty affected by the news, especially since they knew Salem was probably involved somehow, but, as Maria would say, there wasn’t really anything that they could do to help.
So instead of spendi...

Loading my bag onto Appa’s saddle, I wiped the sweat from my brow and turned to give the island one last look before leaving.
With the Fire Nation warship floating just out of the Unagi’s range, the Island of Kyoshi was on high alert.
Fishing ships had been recalled and were currently docked, civilians were boarding up their homes and the Kyoshi warriors were keeping an eye out for any boarding parties that might try and make their way back to shore after Zuko’s defeat.

Camping out in one of the old ruins in the Forever Fall forest, Hazel waited patiently. Although it’d only been a few days, he’d really come to enjoy his time out in the wilderness. He was pretty far away from civilization. There was no reason for anyone to venture out this far into the woods.
It was peaceful here.
He’d almost be tempted to stay here permanently... But that was an impossibility. Even if he tried, it wouldn’t be long before Salem found him and if not her, i...

Beacon’s CCTS was pretty impressive. Acting as the main hub to the entire Kingdom of Vale, it was capable of handling massive amounts of data at a time, connecting with the other Kingdoms near instantaneously.

Sitting on his porch overlooking the fields in front of his home, Oscar took slow meaningful breaths. Sitting to his side was a book on Huntsmen, although it only contained basic information about them and their duties, nothing about how to become one.
Well, not how to become one without attending a combat school. It did tell him a little about Aura and Semblances, but not how to unlock them.
Unfortunately, being well and truly in the middle of nowhere, there...

The royal archives were a treasure trove of knowledge. It was filled to the brim with books and scrolls on numerous subjects, ranging from records of the Fire nations past conflicts which were heavily edited in the last hundred years to various Firebending forms. Sadly, Lightning generation wasn’t among them.

The ocean was a cruel mistress, this simple fact was known to everyone that sailed it. Outside of the obvious risk of drowning or being stranded without food or water, there were also a variety of sea creatures, the largest of which could crush an Emperor Class Fire Nation Battleship under its massive body... Luckily those were few and far between.
The smaller ones like the serpent that gave the Serpent’s Pass its name, were a little more common. Although, they rarely attacked unless ...

Hey everyone, I thought I’d give a small update for this coming Friday. With Pushing Through the Limit officially completed, a new story’s going to take place. One set in Avatar... The Last Airbender, not the blue people... Although, given enough time... Yeah, no, it’ll be a while before that comes around.

“Home sweet home,” Yang breathed. Jumping up, she landed on her mattress, causing the makeshift bunk to shake precariously. “How I missed you.” Letting out a soft yawn, she cuddled into her pillow and began to doze off.

Sitting under the wing of the Airship, I held my Scroll to my head, watching as the rain slowly trickled to a stop. Thunder, once cracking loudly overhead, had moved along the horizon and had grown substantially fainter.

Watching over Konoha with Katsuyu on her shoulder and Shizune at her back, Tsunade smirked. When she’d taken up the mantle of Hokage, the village had been in a bad situation.

Growling as yet another one of his bombs disintegrated, Deidara took off into the air, his clay bird narrowly avoiding the Tsuchikage’s attacks that would have turned it and him into a fine red mist. It seemed that the old man still had some fight left in him, despite his age.

Besides the slightly uncomfortable beds and a somewhat predictable horror movie, the first night we spent in the forest hadn’t been that bad. Save for the odd interaction Ruby and I had with the Beowolves, nothing strange had happened.
The forest did however give off an odd vibe that almost seemed to be telling us to leave. It was extremely subtle, but both Pyrrha and Winter were able to pick up on it.
Team RWBY were a bit slower to picking up on the change in the air. Spending ...
