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). ︶︶︶︶ !!

The ninja are back for another action-packed adventure! Dive into the sequel to Darkness from Within for a world of new characters, new twists, and new trouble as the story continues in Flames of the Past. -------- Three years have passed, and the past is behind them. The ninja are a united team once again, ready to defend each other to their last breaths. But just because the past is nothing but a faded memory doesn't mean it's not there. As a new threat rises from the shadows, the ninja are thrown into action, but new environments provide new insecurities, and the twisted road of their mission is revealed to be more challenging than anticipated. Tragedy, rumors, secrets, and betrayals threaten the team from all sides, and their bond of loyalty will be tested to its limit. * * * "You really need to work on telling the truth every once and a while. Maybe then it'll be easier to trust you." Mysterious, unidentified sightings bring the ninja to the kingdom of Shillvaron, one of the four kingdoms in Ninjago. Their mission? Protect the Ruby Princess and her prized possession: the Fire Crystal. Everything is going well until Lloyd discovers a link from their new enemy to his old enemy: the Overlord. But no one seems to take his suspicions seriously. Cole couldn't care less about what his former rival has to say and Jay has his own problem to worry about. Garmadon was recently thrown back into his teenage years--and Kai has taken a liking to the princess. Lloyd's refusal to tell the whole truth only pushes them further away and he delves into the mystery alone. But the green ninja isn't as strong as he used to be--physically and mentally--so when his Baddie marking starts acting up again for an unknown reason, fear enters in and it takes everything he has not to fall apart in front of the friends he doesn't fully trust. -------- Cover by me.

"let me see your smile one last time." ________________________________________ Book 3 of The Mixed Barry Series (Shadow's P.O.V on things) Reason it's called The Mixed Berry series One night I thought of the name 'The Mixed Berry Series' because I needed a name for this series. All the stories are apart of the berry category (same anime Naruto), but each of them have a different flavor (a different story/ character). ________________________________________ I do not own any of the Naruto characters or their stories. I only own my characters and their stuff.
