Hey guys Snowstar98 here. This is my first Fanfic. Hope you like it, and tips on how to work fanfiction would be great. Thanks. Here is the character Information and the first chapter. I do not own Lego Ninjago or the characters. I only own my OC's, Sarah, Cali, and Ebony. Note: Sarah, Cali, and Ebony are based off my friends and me. The only difference is somewhat of their personality, the names, appearance, and age.
Name: Sarah
Age: 14
Appearance: Sarah is small for her age. She has brown hair and blue eyes. She often wears T-shirts and jean shorts.
Personality: Sarah is the leader often depicted as annoying, mysterious, and hyper. Other times she is silent and serious. Like her friends, Cali and Ebony she is care free and adventurous always bringing out the best in her friends.
Elemental power: Ninja of the sky
Weapon: bow and arrow
Name: Cali
Age: 13
Appearance: Cali is an average sized girl. She has light blonde hair with blue-grey eyes. She wears mainly the same thing as Sarah, except her shorts usually have small holes in them from running around.
Personality: Cali is the peacemaker of the "shadows" She is probably the most strange, but fun loving person. Cali is not at all shy and is often the one to rush into things and do the dumbest things ever. She is care-free like Sarah and Ebony and has a natural curiosity that leads to trouble most of the time
Elemental power: Ninja of light
Weapon: dagger
Name: Ebony
Age: 13
Appearance: Ebony is an averaged sized girl with black hair and green eyes. She often wears T-shirts with a sports jacket and shorts. Ebony also has a necklace she wears that is a locket with a picture of her and her family before "the accident" as she calls it.
Personality: Ebony is the jokester of the "shadows". She is hyper like Cali and Sarah, but also gentle and kind. Ebony is strong and will stand up for her friends and help them when needed. Don't get on her bad side though, or she will be like a tornado. Ebony is also care-free. Her intelligence leads to the few smart decisions she and her friends make.
Elemental power: Ninja of shadow
Weapon: spear
Sarah's POV
I awoke to thumping and laughter outside our small house. I sighed and got up and headed outside. It was sunny and peaceful. I looked down from the roof and smiled. Our house on this abandoned building's roof had the best view of Ninjago City. You can practically see the whole city, and don't get me started on the sunsets and sunrises.
"Cali, it took me forever to get that fried chicken without getting caught! Please give it back!" a voice said beside me, snapping me out of my thoughts. I sighed and looked at my two best friends. A girl with light blonde hair and blue-grey eyes clutched a small box which no doubt had the fried chicken in it. That was Cali. The other girl had black hair and green eyes. She was Ebony. Being the awesome leader I am I chuckled and walked up to the two of them. "Ebony, Ninjago City calls us 'The Shadows' for a reason. You should not have gotten caught anyways" I said. Ebony turned to me and gave me these pathetic eyes that she almost never does. "True, but Cali should have asked me for it first. It's not fair that I'm the youngest" She replied. Cali and I looked at each other, and then laughed loudly. "Ebony, you're only the youngest by about a month" Cali said. I nodded in agreement. "Cali's right Ebony" I said. Ebony sighed "I know Sarah". I smiled gently "Come on guys. I know one thing that will cheer us up. I think the care-free Shadows strike" Cali and Ebony grin, and we leave our makeshift home to steal some food to survive.
It's a funny story about how we became known as 'The Shadows' as Ninjago City calls us. It began shortly after Cali, Ebony, and I met. I guess I should start there. I had lost my parents at age five, and had been living on the streets since, taking care of myself. One day, when I was ten, I was lounging around on top of a dumpster when I heard a commotion, and saw a girl running away from some thugs. She was around my age, and I decided to help. After helping escape the thugs, we became friends. That was how I met Cali. Ebony is a whole other story. It was about a year later, and Cali and I were walking along the streets of the city when we saw some skeletons that had her cornered. We couldn't stand that, remembering how we met. Cali and I decided to help her out. The fight wasn't easy, but we made a good team. Since then Cali, Ebony, and I have stuck together. Now how we became 'The Shadows' is shortly afterwards we needed enough food and water for three people to survive. This led to us stealing only enough to survive. We never got caught either. The things we stole were noticed though, and the city began calling us 'The Shadows'. The name stuck, so we decided to use it as well. Of course, no one expects three kids to be the culprits.
I lost my thought as we arrived at a doughnut shop. I smiled, eagerly. Occasionally we would steal a treat. We walked in and headed for a corner. I looked at Ebony. She was the smartest out of the three of us. "Ebony, what's the plan?" I asked. Ebony looked over at the counter and smiled. "The two of you go and come up with a distraction. I'll run behind the counter and get us some doughnuts" she replied. Cali and I nod and head off into the center of the shop. We each took a plastic fork and smiled at each other. We had done this several times before. "You ready Sarah?" Cali asked me. I nodded and lunged at her. We laughed as we had a sword fight with our forks, and all eyes were on us. Ebony came out from behind the corner holding a bag with doughnuts. She nodded her head and left the shop. That was our signal. We ended the battle with Cali pretending to stab my heart. We left the shop to cheers and laughter. As the two of us headed down the street towards our home to meet up with Ebony we heard an annoyed yell "Somehow 'The Shadows' have stolen some doughnuts!" Cali and I looked at each other, and laughed, running down the street.
The three of us sat down around a small fire outside our house. I was eating a doughnut, Cali was humming a song, and Ebony was carving a stick into a small dagger. Did I forget to mention we can make a weapon out of almost anything? I finished my doughnut and went inside our house and came out shortly afterwards with my wooden bow and some unfinished arrows. Like Ebony, I began carving. I finished the bow, and added some string to it, and then I began to work on the arrows. Tomorrow, I would paint them. Ebony finally spoke up "Guys, that was amazing today. The way you guys distracted them" I smiled, and Cali stopped humming and replied "Yeah, we were pretty good, weren't we? No one even knows we're 'The Shadows'" The three of us laughed at that and high fived. We had no idea we were being watched by some people in the shadows. They knew that we were 'The Shadows'.
So what do you guys think so far? Review please! I'll try to improve as the story continues. Updates might be slow, and will be at random.
