(this is a rewrite of the original 'the power of nightmares' book. Previously named 'The shadow of the fire') Season one: Ninjago, a peaceful place that is under the protection of the ninjas. But one ninja has a secret, a secret that he doesn't even know himself yet. But when that secret starts to surface, everything will change. Follow the ninjas in a story of secrets, shadows, tricks, and lies. But don't forget that in the shadows hides a monster, a monster you only thought you saw in nightmares. Season two: Kai believes that there is something good to his dark side, but everyone else thinks he's wrong and that Shadow is just a monster. It's time the two fire masters show everyone what brothers can do. Season three: He is back, and now, he has Shadow. The man from the warehouse has captured him and is looking for answers. Can the ninjas save Shadow in time, or will they be too late? Season four: Shadow gains a new friend and they soon become best friends. But after time, Shadow notices that his friend is acting strangely. And Shadow starts having problems with nightmares and sudden bad feelings. And the fact that he may be crushing on a girl is not making the situation any better.

If you were a hero, but you had been a villain in the past, could you ever see yourself as a true hero? If you kept making mistakes that put lives in danger, would you ever forgive yourself? If you had a voice in your head, that kept saying that you were destined to be a villain all along, would you believe it and turn into the villain you feared you would become? Or would you leave your life behind, change yourself and start over, in a place where no one would recognize you or bring up your past? Do you think your family would look for you, or would they understand your wishes and leave you alone? The answer: Well, you'll have to read to find out. (This book is a sequel to A fire's shadow. In other words, this is season five of that book, but seeing as this season is very special and also might be a lot longer than the usual seasons, I decided to make it into its own book.)

Okay so, as I was rewriting a one-shot in the 2019 calendar, nothing major changed but some things are different and added. Well, anyway, as I was doing so, I remembered something regarding "A fire's shadow". Matt and Shadow were originally supposed to fall in love with each other. But somehow, I forgot about that until now. And when I did remember I became very frustrated about it because I kinda like it. Which is why I'm doing this. It's the story of season four in "A fire's shadow" but instead of Shadow and Amy being in love, it's Shadow and Matt. So yeah, enjoy this what-if scenario which I'm probably going to make longer than intended.
