Family blood
A little nice short story about Sett dealing with some internal issues
With the everyday tension growing in Ionia, few find days of respite and luxury. Noxians were knocking at their door every few days or so. One would always hear of a village or town being torn from Ionia’s beautiful lands. The Noxians cared not for the destruction they left in their wake, their only care was to conquer and reap the lands for their own. 
Navori, a town where a crime lord is at the center. Anyone who dared challenge his word, would find their teeth on the ground. His reputation introduced him to anyone entering the town for the first time. Though there are some who think he is just some bastard child who is throwing a tantrum. In the crowds there were many hooded and cloaked citizens. Two whisper to each other as they keep their heads low, “I swear I saw her come this way…” 
“I cannot believe she slipped from under your nose!” The woman cried. 
“I swear she looked like you! She had all your features!” Her companion argued. 
While the two spoke and scurried through the crowd, there was a copy of the woman traveling in the opposite direction heading to a very dangerous part of town. 
In the pits, roaring and cheering can be heard coming from the stands. Skin on skin, bone on bone, thundering bodies hitting the floor as people fought for their glory or their lives. But under the pits there is a hideout one that was home to the infamous crime lord, Sett. The large half Vastayian wolverine like man slouched on his throne. A body dropped in front of him as the man whimpered and groaned. 
“You took from me something, and you have yet to pay it back. As per our agreement, you will work in the pits.” Sett gruffed staring down at the insect before him. He could almost taste the fear emanating from the lowlife.
“Take him away, his damn whimpering is giving me a headache.” He waved the man off as one of his subordinates gripped the man’s neck and dragged him out of the room. Sighing to himself, Sett looked over to his right hand, “Is that the last one? I need a break. It’s another one of those days.”
The woman nodded and put down the list in her hands, “Yes boss, that was the last one.”
With a groan the dark red headed man stood from his throne and walked out of the room with his hands deep in his pockets. He slowly paced through the hallways his head lost in thought. He sat on a bench and groaned with his head in his hands. 
“Same shit everyday. These Noxian fucks think they can run into my territory and try to take from me. You’d think with the few I send home packing with bruises and broken bones would tell their friends to keep away.” He huffed as he stared down at his feet, “And I keep getting reminded of the bad blood I have. Anytime I look at one of their faces.”
He would see feet approach him, “You sound like you need someone to talk to…” His eyes looked up to see a noxian woman in a cloak. As if a switch flipped in him, he stood up and swung his fists at the woman. 
“Fucking Noxian bitch how did you get in here?!” He growled.
The woman backed away and quickly her form changed into something more, her. The chameleon like girl looked over at him with her hands up, “W-wait, Neeko is not Noxian! She is just Vastayian! Well not really more Vastayashai'rei. But I am not a stinky Noxian!”
Sett’s demeanor completely changed from attack, to confusion. “Vataya-what? Sorry I am not really too intuned with my Vastayian side, though I should be. Question stands at how did you get here? And how did you do that?” 
Neeko transformed herself to look like Sett and giggled, “It’s magic! Neeko and her people can copy peoples Shoma! Oh that is another word you might not know… Um peoples auras I guess? Oh and Vastayashai'rei is what you might call the first of the Vastayians! My people are direct descendants!”
Sett looked at his mirror copy and tilted his head. “Wow, you really do look exactly like me… Even got my scar right. Huh, I needa shave a little… Wait do you copy everything?” He looks up and down his mirror. 
“What do you mean?” Neeko turned back into herself and looked up at the man.
“Well do you have… Actually nevermind. Also, no I don’t need to talk to anyone!” He growled.
Neeko sat down on the bench and smiled, “Its okay! We are like family! You can tell big sister Neeko all your problems and I can help in my own Neeko way!”
He raised a brow looking at her then shook his head, “We are not ‘family’ my only family is my ma who I love with all my heart.” 
“Not true! We are family! We share the same blood! Although your blood might have a lot more peoples in it. And aren’t these other people in this home your family?” 
Sett took a step back and let out an  exaggerated groan, “I mean, yea I guess? But calling me family is not a good thing. I am a damn Noxian bastard child who has the best and prettiest mom in the world.” 
Neeko’s ears perked up, “Pretty mom?! Neeko wanna see! Not as pretty as my Nidalee though!” 
Sett’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the chameleon, “No because you might turn into her. And that would be weird for me.”
“Sorry Neeko got off topic. But you are more than just that! Neeko can tell by your Shoma that you care deeply for mama! You may have bad things in your blood but that shouldn’t mean you are bad! You are you! You can be Vastayian, or Noxian, or even just Ionian if you want! You yourself defines you, not your blood! My tribe is my family, but Nidalee is also family! She helped Neeko when she was in trouble and Neeko is very happy for it!” 
Neeko hopped up and poked at the man’s chest, “Hating yourself just makes you wanna punch things! And if you are too busy hating yourself, where will your love for mama come from!” 
Sett looks at the girl in awe as she may talk funny but she is spitting out some major truth. Soon his right hand comes walking in with two cloaked Noxians being dragged by their collars, “Boss I found these two snooping around  and- wait who is she and how did she get here?”
The two Noxians pointed at Neeko, “There she is!”
Neeko ran behind Sett and hid, “Those two tried to capture Neeko. She ran from them both. That is how Neeko got here.”
Sett’s eyes threw fire at the two Noxians as he walked over to them. “Let me handle this.” His right hand dropped them both and walked off glaring over at Neeko. Neeko transformed into her and giggled at her, “Neeko thinks you are pretty…”
Cracking his knuckles he lifted one up by the scruff of his neck, “You Noxians never learn, Don’t Fuck With My People!” He reeled back and knocked out a few teeth from the man. He dropped his bloodied face on the floor and glared at the woman, “Get out of my town before I throw you both in the pits. I see either of your mugs again and I will do more than just take out a few teeth.”
 The two screamed out and ran out while Neeko smiled and tapped Sett’s shoulder, “Is Neeko your people?”
Sett smirked a little and nodded, “Yes she is. Thanks. Your a funny little one. You ever need help around here, let me know.”
“Well, Neeko could use a nice place to stay for the night, maybe next door to the pretty lady?”

Music of the night
A little AhrixSona I wrote a while back, just as a warm up for something.
Night had fallen within seconds after Sona found a small clearing to relax. Her head was troubled with thoughts, and her mind was easily cleared once she started to play a soft tune into the dusk. The wind began to pick up; slowly lifting her cyan color hair. Her fingers nimbly moved across Etwahl, her stringed instrument. The sounds coming from her tool enchanted even the most wildest of animals. In no time at all, the glade she had found to rest in became her stadium where she played; and the animals became her audience. 
One of the creatures, began to creep closer to Sona. Several of the tails would sway with the tune as it approached her. It was Ahri, the Nine-Tailed Fox. Ahri sat down at the Sona’s feet and continued to listen to the marvelous sound. The song ended, and so did the trance the animals were in. They scurried along to continue with their lives.
Sona’s eyes moved down to her feet where Ahri sat. Her head tilted to the side as she grabbed her small white board and a marker. Scribbling on the board, she turned it to Ahri, reading the words, “What are you doing here Ahri?” 
With a seductive giggle leaving her lips, Ahri stood up and answered, “Well, as much I want to say I was captured by a blue haired beauty, I was actually caught by sound.”
Sona began to panic as she erased her words and wrote again. Turning it back to Ahri, the board read, “Oh I am sorry! I did not mean to disturb anyone! Please do not be upset!” Ahri shook her head and sat down next to Sona, “My love, you did not disturb me at all. I was just enjoying your music. Also I can read signs, it was one of the first things I learned before speaking.”
Sighing in relief, Sona’s hands began to move forming different signs for Ahri to read, “Good! I really hate drawing on that thing. And that’s nice to hear! I’m glad you enjoyed it.” 
Ahri began to shift in her seat as her golden oculars looked up to the blackness of the night. “So what brings the amazing musician Sona to the forest on a night such as this?” 
Sona made a look as if she was sighing, “I was just clearing up some of my head,” she signed then paused. Shaking her head, then continued, “Nothing to worry about! I am doing a lot better.” Ahri’s gaze met Sona’s as she softly flicked her nose, “Don’t lie to me. I can smell your uneasiness. You can trust me, from woman to another.” 
There was a long silence as Sona began to form the sighs to her thoughts. “It’s just, I wish I could do more for people when we are on the rift. All I do is play music, while everyone is pouring their energy into battle.”
Ahri interrupted her hands as she clapped them together and held them in her own hands. “Stop right there,” she began, “Sona, you are doing your best out there. Your music gives everyone a reason to fight. It has the power to give us strength and heal our wounds! If anything you are the hardest working person out there! Your hands never stop moving, and they could probably do even more amazing things.”
Ahri would give her a wink as she then continued, “People would die just to be able to hear you play for them. Don’t you ever say different, after all I am one of those who would do such.”
Sona’s clear blue eyes began to widen as she also teared up listening to Ahri. She was in utter shock by her words. Gripping onto Ahri’s hands, Sona’s head fell on to her shoulders as she began to cry in happiness. The fox girl would smile brightly, almost lighting up the night sky. She would release Sona’s hands, then wrap her arms around the woman’s waist pulling her closely. 
“I guess those were the words you needed to hear huh?” You could almost hear her grin as she spoke.
“I didn’t know that’s how everyone felt. I feel so selfish for wanting to do more.” Sona began to sign as she wiped the tears from her eyes.
Placing a kiss on Sona’s forehead, Ahri would smile, “Do not feel that way. I do hope you feel a lot better now. Would you like me to escort you out the forest? It is getting late and I do not want wild animals to jump out at you.” 
Sona’s hands moved, “No, you have done enough for me. I will be fine by myself. Thank you so much.” Sona inched closer to Ahri, placing a sweet peck on the lips. “Your words do more charming than your magic,” Sona signed as she picked up Etwahl and began to fade into the forest. 
Ahri’s fingers tapped her own lips as she watched Sona leave. “Your music is more powerful than my charms. Since you were able to get me to skip a few beats.”

A Traveling Companion
A little short story featuring Yuumi and some friends
A cold and seeming lifeless tundra sat still. Roads were empty since it was a trade route rarely used from it’s harsh temperatures. Even the sun’s scorching rays did nothing to slightly warm the land. The calm land appeared to be disturbed. The air around started to shift and it looked as if was being pulled around. Light concentrated to one point and created a swir, and from the light, a blue furred cat was spat out with a large book following it.
“Book you brought us to Freljord again! Is Master nearby?!” The blue cat looked around to see nothing but open land.
The magical talking cat opened up the book and began speaking to it, “What do you mean you don’t know?! You’re the one who teleport us from that delicious looking fish! I think her name was Ami?”
The book would move around as if it were shaking its head. The feline looked puzzled as the book corrected her, “Nyami? Oh Nami! Yea it was that one!” The winds began to blow fierce and the warm looking fur on her body was now cold as ice. As quickly as possible, she ran over to the book and clung on to it tightly, “Book! Please tell me you have some heating magic or something! Freljord is a lot colder than I remembered…”
The book seemingly shivered while the cold winds of the tundra pelted the two. They looked around for warmth and found nothing with their efforts. “Come on book, we have to find something or I’ll be a catsickle and you’ll a cold read.”
The cat would hop on the book as it opened it’s pages and they both hovered over the ground. The empty land provided nothing to help keep them warm, not even an animal in sight. She began to whimper as she curled up on top of the book.
Then as if the gods were being merciful, they heard a familiar voice. “Ah, little kitty and magical book! My good friends!” A warm and inviting greeting flew into the cat’s ears, almost thawing her out of her cold prison.
She turned to see a large and muscular man, a smile was on his mustached face as she began to run over to him and pounce, “Braum! Thank goodness you are here, I was about to freeze!” She would nuzzle up to the large man. He gave a hearty chuckle, reaching down to pick up the small feline, “Yuumi my little companion hello! I have not seen you since you disappeared in that village we were fishing in.”
“Yea sorry about that! Book here just likes to teleport us randomly if they find a trace of our master.” She apologized while perched on the giant’s shoulder. Braum stood at 7 feet tall, probably even taller. The man had a warmth to him, one that came from his kind and gentle heart. But it was underneath all the brawn and muscle that helps him wield the unbreakable magic door.
The Braum would continue to his destination with Yuumi perched up on his shoulder, the two began to talk the adventure Yuumi has been since their last meeting. Braum let out a soulful laugh as he petted the small feline, “Ho ho, sounds like a very large adventure for such a small and powerful kitty!”
Yuumi giggled and purred while the Freljord giant affectionately kept her warm. “Where are you heading? On another big important job? Saving some village?”
Braum nodded as their destination was reached, a tall mountain. From the moment they stepped foot near it, they could both hear a loud strange howling. “The people of a nearby village told me there has been strange noises and a sighting of a snow monster.” Braum’s voice turned serious as he looked around and found large footsteps. He made his way over as he placed his hands over it and noticed it was a fresh track.
“Prepare yourself Yuumi, we might be in for a dangerous one.” He spoke while crouched and following the path of footsteps. Yuumi hopped on the book to let Braum do his thing. She looked around as she followed and noticed the cave they were heading to. Then they were ambushed, a large monstrous yeti jumped out onto Braum.
“BRAUM NO!” Yuumi screamed as she went to shield the man.
“Stay back! This one is too strong for your magics.” Braum and the yeti wrestled in the snow, a fierce and scary sight for Yuumi. She felt helpless, wanting to protect and assist Braum who has saved her twice. She noticed the yeti was not trying to hurt Braum, but play with him?
“Wait, is he-?” Yuumi’s question was interrupted by the voice of a child.
“Willump! You I know you want to play with people but it looks like you are attacking!” The boy called out as the yeti stopped and ran over to him almost like a pet. He was smiling and the boy was patting him all over. Soon the boy’s eyes sparkled when he saw Braum.
“Wait, your Braum! My momma told me so many of your stories! I can't believe you are real! And so huge!” The boy looked at him in awe while the yeti known as Willump rolled in the snow.
“Oh oh, where are my manners! I am Nunu, this is Willump. His is my best friend and the best traveling companion anyone could ask for!” Nunu introduced himself and ran over to Willump who was stood up and made conforming noise. Braum stood up and dusted off the snow from his body and made a large grin.
“Ohoho, looks like these were our culprits! Little one and big protecting yeti! I was sent up here because nearby village heard noises and saw a yeti! You must be careful, not everyone is as kind and understanding as Braum.” The giant lectured as he then called over Yuumi and she perched back on his shoulder. “This is Braum’s travel companion for this adventure. She is Yuumi.”
Yuumi raised a paw to wave and the book did an equivalent. “Oh and this is book! He’s my companion! We’re looking for our master Norra!”
Nunu scratched his head and looked over to Willump, “I don’t think I’ve heard that name before, sorry.” He then jolted his head quickly, the thought of the cat talking now registering in his head. “Wait, your a talking cat! And that's a magical book! Wow!” Nunu amazed by the people he was meeting ran over and started to pet Yuumi while she purred and rubbed against his hand.
“Little one, do you stay out here?” Braum asked with a hint of curiosity.
“Yea me and Willump just sleep wherever we can find a nice spot! He’s really comfy!�� Nunu giggled as Yuumi licked at his hand.
“Come. We will find you and Willump a nice warm farm to stay in for the night.” Braum led as the others followed.
After returning to the village the villagers were surprised to find out that it was a child and a friendly yeti causing all the noise. For a job well done, they prepared a feast for them. They even offer Nunu and Willump a place for the night. While Yuumi was getting her hands on some fish, book opened up and started to pull her in.
“No no no, why is it always with fish! Come on book!” Yuumi yelled as both her and book disappeared.
“What just happened mister Braum?! They disappeared!” Nunu exclaimed.
“Seems as our furry companion and her book found a new hint for their master.” Braum chuckled hearthfully.
The night was sent away with feasts and celebrations, but there were whispers of a hooded yordle passing through.

A Shenzed Wedding
In an AU where Zed never killed Shen’s father: Shen, Zed, Akali, Kennen, and Kayn, together with the students at the Monastery now fight a Noxian army that invaded their home in an all out war 
Shen took care of two soldiers tossing their bodies at their comrades. Zed looks around to see the endless battling and growing number of Noxian soldiers. Zed continued to dispatch of more and more of the Noxians and grew tired of his endless thoughts.
“Shen! Shen!” Zed called out as he jumped over and assisted his childhood lover.
“Shen! Will you marry me?” Shen’s eyes widen as he stopped a Noxian’s sword and tossed him aside.
“Now is not a good time!” Shen cried out.
“Now might be the only time! Shen. I love you.” Zed stared into his lover’s eyes.
Shen looked around then slashed at more of the soldiers, “Kennen! Kennen!” The small yordle was zipping around using his shuriken skills to pick people off from a distance.
“What?!” The eye of the storm cried out.
“Marry us!” Shen yelled as Zed stared at him in confusion then realized what he meant.
Lightning crashed down and fried the soldiers around the yordle and lovers, “A little busy right now!” Akali flies by and downs two rushing Noxians, Kayn assists by morphing into the walls and reaping the enemies that walk by.
“Kennen! Now!” Shen commanded as the yordle hopped onto his shoulder.
“Fine! Dearly beloved we have gathered here today!” Kennen began and launched shurikens over at advancing Noxians, “To end these damned Noxians!”
Zed stabbed a large berserker and took him out, “Shen, do you take me as your lawfully wedded husband, through sickness and health, through joy and sorrow?”
Shen reaches over and blocks incoming arrows pointed at Zed then slashes at the oncoming rush of soldiers. “I do! And do you Zed take me to be your partner through life, for better or for worse?”
Zed yells out as he pierces through a man’s skull, “I do!
“By the power invested in me, as yordle ninja, I now pronounce you man and man!” Kennen is now jumping around in a cowl of lightning trying to escape, “You may now-” He bullseyes two Noxians in the forehead. “You may now-” He creates a storm around him taking out a large force.
Akali and Kayn in unison scream from across the halls, “Just fucking kiss!” Zed and Shen remove the masks under their noses and share a deep passionate kiss, while the other three protect their shared moment.

Sparing Match
Little bit of some Shenzed fluff.
Two young men sat far from each other, but their faces met. Eyes closed, they awaited for the order to go. All was silent as all students stood and watched what was to come. The proud son of the master was to fight a rugged prodigy. Sunlight made its way into the room, warming and lighting the area. The master stood there with his arms crossed as a huff escaped from his chest.
As if almost simultaneously, both would launch themselves at each other. The sound of skin meeting skin, fists and palms rubbing against each other, and grunts filled the air. The other students watched in awe as if they watched a spear trying to pierce through an impenetrable shield. The shaggy black haired Zed would throw kicks wildly and fiercely, the opposing amber-eyed Shen stood his ground and blocked with his arms.
“Who do you think is going to break first….?” A younger student whispered. “I think Shen will endure it all…” Breathed another student. “No way…! Zed definitely has this…” Another murmured.
The master standing near the idle chatter cleared his throat and shot a glare at the students. Quickly they fixed themselves and turned back to the fight but they were not the only ones speaking.
“Come now, you can’t hold for much longer tough guy.” Zed huffed as he continued to throw more at the defending Shen.
“If you have time to talk to me you have time to throw harder punches.” Shen scoffed as he continued to stand firm.
But the taunt set Zed off, he picked up his pace and threw a punch landing it under Shen’s chest. The other students’ began to whisper and grin, others groaned and shook their heads as they watched. Shen coughed out and held his chest, Zed then kicked and knocked him off his feet to the ground.
“Had enough?” Zed would gloat.
“Not even close.” Shen lifted himself up and began his own set of attacks. The students watching whispered and chattered saying the battle was just getting started.
Now Shen was on the attack, while Zed moved back and dodged. He knew he could not block Shen’s hits, but he could counter if he sees an opening. Quickly Shen changed up his pattern and managed to land a good hit on Zed knocking him back.
“Not the first time you are flat on your ass.” Shen taunted, and Zed took that as a declaration of war. What seemed to be one sided was now equal, both young men were giving their all with fast movements and attacks. Neither of the two wanted to relent or even hesitate. The master grinned as he called out, “Enough.”
Shen and Zed both stopped and sat down facing their master. Kusho would coldly stare at the boys as he made his way to them. He then extended both of his hands to each of them, “Both of you are improving a great amount.”
The young men almost blushed and looked at each other before Kusho growled, “But Zed you must keep that mouth of yours shut! And Shen do not lose your composure over a punch getting past your defense!”
The Great Master would bark out as he scold the two, the other students laughed and snickered before he turned his attention to them, “And as for you lot, take this sparring match as a chance to learn and better yourselves, let's go back to training! And double time!”
The students scattered in a hurry and went back to their training rounds. Shen and Zed took their master’s hand and stood up. “Great work you two, go rest up and Shen meet me in my quarters later on.” Kusho smiled at him then went off to oversee the other students.
“Someone’s trouble~.” Zed would sing as Shen sighed and punched the other man's shoulder, “Hush will you? Father will smite you if he hears you talking in a fight again.”
Both would laugh as they headed out of the sparring room. Zed would look around to see if anyone was watching, then slowly took Shen’s hand and held it warmly. Shen began to blush lightly as he laced his fingers with Zed’s, “D-did I hit you too hard?”
Zed shook his head as he looked away embarrassed, “N-no if anything I think I hit you pretty badly…”
The young lovers made their way into Shen’s chambers and once in private embraced each other warmly. Some might say the sparring match created some… tension but if anything they grew closer from it. A soft kiss was shared as they both sat on the kept bed.
“Why is your room always so tight and neat…” Zed looked around finding everything in place, Shen would blush and huff. “W-well sorry that I don't get yelled at by father for having an unclean room!”
Zed crossed his arms and grinned, “Well you know I love people yelling my name.” Shen’s eyes widened and his face turned a dark red. He then buried his face into his pillows and mumbled, “Stop that…. Are you trying to make me explode from embarrassment.”
“I would rather you exploded inside of me~” “ZED!”
