CHAPTER 1

The ninja landed on a small rooftop after running half way across Tokyo. Looking around to make sure no one was looking, she crouched down and opened a trap door. She went threw it and closed it letting it seal shut. She landed in a small room that had a bed along with a dresser and closet.

Knowing she was safe inside, she pulled off her mask. Her face was elegantly shaped. Her small noes only made her already large blue eyes look even larger. She walked to the dresser and opened the bottom drawer. Inside, under her piles of cloths, was a small wooden box. Inside of it was all the little trinkets that she had taken from the shield manor. She took out this past night's pickings and placed it in the box. Tucking it back away in its hiding place, she stood up and noticed her answering machine blinking meaning that it had a message.

She pressed the button and started to undress. "Hay Serena it's me Mina, just wanted to see if you were busy or not. Well call me when you get this, unless it's to late. You know how my mom would kill you if she found out that you called and woke her up. Oh did you hear, FMN struck the Shield Mansion. She really likes that place. Well see you at school tomorrow any way, bye." The machine stopped playing and Serena shook her head smiling.

Mina had been her best friend since they met in kindergarten. She had saved mina from a group of older kids who were trying to get her money. Since then, Mina had hung onto Serena like a leech despite Serena's wish to be left alone. Eventually, Serena began to enjoy her company and depend upon it when her parents died. Serena was sent to an orphanage after that. Afraid to be separated from Mina, Serena did everything she could to not be adopted. It did work and parents would gradually not come around to her room and she was allowed to stay with Mina.

At the age of 16, Serena moved away from the orphanage and into a small apartment closer to Mina's. She got a job at a local arcade where her boss, Andrew, and Mina often chatted about FMN. They were both big fans and never stopped talking about her and about what they would do if they were ever to meet her. Serena felt bad not telling them that she was FMN, especially when they talked about who they thought she really was.

"Meow," came a feline voice. Serena spun around to find her pet cat, Luna looking up at her from the doorway.

"Hey Luna, sorry I was gone so long. Mr. Shields had more security then ever before, it was hard to get in. and they almost caught me. I was lucky I came to the cliff edge and jumped over it. I climbed down after I grabbed onto the rock, which is even luckier still. The handhold I grabbed onto seemed to pop out of nowhere." Luna's ruby red eyes looked into Serena's blue eyes; there were moment that Serena thought that the cat actually understood her.

Several months ago Serena had found Luna; she was being teased by a bunch of little boys. Something about the crescent moon mark on the cat's head made Serena want to bring her home. It was soon after that that Serena began training. She quickly gained much speed and agility, became very strong, and had cat like reflexes. Exactly one month after finding the cat, Serena had become FMN. She woke up with the jewels in her hands in her bed with the ninja outfit still on. It wasn't until the next day when she heard what had happened. A story on the news spoke about what items were taken, what the thief had been wearing, and the simple card that was left behind saying 'I'll be back on the next full moon, Full Moon Ninja'.

On the next full moon, Serena was aware of being up and being FMN. In fact, she had waited for the moment; it was exciting to her knowing that she could get away with it. She didn't know why she liked it so much but she did and didn't stop. It went on like that every full moon. She went out into the night to the Shield mansion and took small things enjoying every moment of it.

"Meow," Luna said again drawing Serena out of another memory.

"I'm sorry Luna, I bet your hungry. Let me get you something to eat." Serena finished putting away her ninja outfit so that it was well hidden and went to the kitchen. She gave the cat a full bowl of food, went to her room again, set the alarm, and went to sleep.

Serena woke the next morning to her alarm. It was the news telling the story of FMN's late night thievery last night. She showered and dressed while listening to the report. She turned it off and headed out the door.

Walking down the hill, Serena heard someone calling her name. She turned to see Mina running after her and then trip over some unknown object and started to roll down the hill. Serena jumped up enough so that her friend went under her as she rolled so as not to get knocked over. Serena ran to Mina who had stopped at the bottom, "are you alright Mina?"

"Yea, I'm fine now Serena, thanks. I think I caught my clumsiness from you Serena," she said playfully.

"You know very well that I grew out of that stage," Serena said, hands on her hips.

"I know Serena, I mean did you see that jump you did. It was amazing. It was like you were a ninja or something," mina said.

"Ninja, why would I be a ninja? That's silly," Serena laughed nervously.

"Oh I know Serena. Just think you dressed all in black, running across the rooftops of Tokyo. It is funny. Now the Full Moon Ninja, you can't begin to compare to her." Mina folded her hands together and looked into the sky dreaming.

A very large sweat drop appeared on the side of Serena's head. "Mina, she's a thief, do you think Mr. Shields likes her steeling from him," Serena said. 'Thank god she doesn't think that I'm FMN.'

"I know but still Serena, she's so cool," Mina said.

Serena stood up, "come on mina, we'll be late for school."

The day was soon over and Serena walked with mina to the arcade. She put her school things in the back room and put on the green apron. She got behind the counter and started her work.

"Serena you're so cool, you know that," mina said.

"Why do you say that," Serena asked.

"Because your 17, almost 18, you have a cool job, an even cooler apartment, you're fast, strong, and not to mention one of the most beautiful girls on Tokyo. You have it all except one thing: A good man," mina said.

"Well thanks mina, but I'm not all that great," Serena said.

Mina was about to argue with her when Andrew walked up, "hey girls. Did you hear about FMN?"

"Yea, oh my god she struck Mr. Shields place again. She's so cool," mina said.

"Not that. Someone is making a movie about her. Their saying she's the greatest ninja of all time," Andrew said all excited.

Serena was amazed, a movie, about her? She was thinking about what they would do when she was snapped out of her thinking. The doors opened with a ding. A man with an ugly green jacket and large sunglasses walked in. He sat at the end of the counter and Serena went to help him. "Is there anything I can get you sir?" He took off his glasses and looked up at her. 'Oh no, it's Mr. Shields,' she thought.
