A.N: Yeah this was probably expected and is probably clichè but since I've seen others do it, why not? So this is a series of one-shots from my Ninjago story: "The Ninja and the Housekeeper". I suggest reading it if you haven't already. These are little mini stories that happened while the story was happening. There may even be some stuff that occurred before the story happened Idk. Well that's all I really gotta say other than I hope you enjoy this so...Peace :)

1.) Set a few nights before Eve was hired.

"Now sweetheart , are you sure that you wanna do this?" Her father asked, while sitting in the passenger seat. He was talking to his daughter who was in the driver's seat driving the both of them through Downtown Ninjago City.

"Dad I have never been so sure of anything in my life." His daughter replied, his daughter had caramel blonde (almost brown) hair and deep hazel eyes.

"We just want you to be safe, Eve." Her father said, "It's been hard since your brother moved out." "I'll be fine dad." His daughter named Eve replied, "I don't know why, but something deep inside is telling me that I should do this…" They stopped at a curb. The father and Eve both climbed out of the car and up to one of the buildings on that street. Eve put up a flyer and taped it to the wall.

"I just hope someone will pick me." She said, looking down at the ground, her father put his hand on her shoulder.

"I'm sure someone will...we just gotta give it time…"

Three days later:

The phone rang in the girl's family's apartment. It was ringing off the hook.

The daughter known as Eve checked the caller ID to see who was calling them. It was a number she had never seen before and was confused with the caller. She picked up the receiver and placed it up to her ear. "Hello?" She spoke into the phone,

"Hi is this Eve Tanaka?" A voice said over the line, it was high-pitched and feminine. She sounded kind, so Eve continued with the call.

"Yes this is she." Eve nodded, "Hi I'm Nya and I saw your ad for housekeeping…" The girl named Nya said, Eve's eyes widened. This was it! She got a job! "Yeah, that's mine." She said getting excited.

"Well my brother, his friends, and I are teachers here at Sensei Wu's Academy and things have just been a MESS around here. According to your ad you sound like the perfect girl for the job. I was hoping you would take the offer?"

Eve wasted no time in responding. "Absolutely! So when do I start?"

"Can you start tomorrow?" Nya asked, "I'll be there." Eve replied, "Oh! Before you go, I think I should let you know in advance...my brother and his friends...are of the ninja that saved Ninjago from the Overlord." Nya explained. Eve almost dropped the phone. The ninja?! She knew about them! Everyone did. She and her friend Eliza knew a lot about them, heck, they both even witnessed the final battle in which Lloyd defeated the Overlord.

"The...The ninja?" She said shaking a little, "Should I have not told you that?" Nya asked worriedly over the line, "No, no it's just...quite the surprise you know?" Eve said, "But I'll still take the job if you'll have me."

"Yeah, of course." Nya said, "So, tomorrow?" "Tomorrow." Eve nodded, then she hung up. She turned to her parents who were still watching her.

"Mom, dad, I got a job!" She said happily,

"Oh honey that's great news!" Her mother smiled, her father gave a smile to her as well.

Early the next day, Eve's father, William, drove Eve to Sensei Wu's Academy to make sure that her new position as a housekeeper was legit. The gates opened and let them in. When the father and daughter entered the school, a girl with short raven-black hair came out smiling bright. It was still early and the sun was just rising which gave the boarding school and the forrest around them a goldenish glow.

The kind girl waved to them. "Hi, are you Eve?" She asked, as Eve and her father walked up.

"Yeah, Nya right?" Eve replied smiling, as she shook the girl's hand. "Yep." The girl named Nya replied with a giggle. "It's good you're here early, my brother and his friends aren't up yet…" Nya looked past Eve at her father. "Is this you're dad?" She asked, "Yes, William, good to meet you." William, he shook Nya's hand too and then they got back to the subject at hand.

"So, are ou ready to unpack and meet everyone?" Nya asked, "Yes." Eve nodded, William and Nya helped her unpack all of her stuff. When they were done it was time for Eve's father to go.

"Me and you're mother are going to miss you so much." William said almost crying, "I'll miss you both too…" Eve responded, she looked like she was on the verge of tears too. The two shared one last hug before they parted. Eve watched in sadness and heartbreak as her father climbed into the car and drove away. Nya came up to her from behind and put a comforting hand on her shoulder and said, "Hey, my friend's are up, are you ready to meet them?"

"Yeah…" Eve said, "...Let's do this…"

Well That was number 1. Hope you enjoyed :)
