Ninjago: Amplified 【 Midnight Masquerade 】

Aurora and her team find themselves in a peculiar situation.

For months, the vigilantes had been struggling to fight against an uncharacteristically coordinated group of criminals. The mysterious organization targeted numerous villages at the same time, forcing the heroes to stop only a few of the many attacks.

Unwilling to let the fight draw on for any longer, Aurora and her friends decide to take a different approach: to hunt down the gang's elusive leader and expose his identity, destroying his gang from the inside. To do so, the vigilantes must attend an event hosted by their foes themselves: a masquerade.

Yet tracking down a crime boss is easier said than done. As Aurora and her friends navigate through the party, hidden within crowds of innocent and guilty, they soon learn that gloating isn't the event's only purpose.

At the Midnight Masquerade, everyone's hiding their true intentions; and, unbeknownst to the vigilantes, they aren't the only ones hunting for culprits that night.
