From the author of the popular romcom short "Blind Date" comes a brand new story. "Shadow: Ninja Detective" is a light-hearted mystery with a twist on the classic gumshoe.

Max Shadow is no ordinary guy. He sleeps during the day, goes on the prowl at night, and is busy solving cases like any other gumshoe, with one rare exception-he's also a highly trained, bonafide ninja. Not the assassin kind; that's not his style. The gadgets, gizmos, and garb, though? Now, that's more like it.

In "Shadow: Ninja Detective," Max scours the rooftops, scoping out his latest lead. Giminey's Gems & Jewelry has been robbed, and it's up to Shadow to find the culprits and dole out his special brand of justice on the elderly store owner's behalf.

Shuriken, shozoku, and shoku combine to play an integral part in this quirky short story where nothing is as it seems-least of all Max Shadow, Ninja Detective.

8 parts Complete Mature
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. ︶︶︶︶ *note: this short story takes place roughly a year before the events of Ninjago: Amplified (Book 1). ︶︶︶︶ !!
