Nutmeg's Recomendations

Hey, So at school we were asked to do a character analysis and I did Percy Jackson cuz he's one of my favourite characters (Other than Annabeth and Leo). Ana Because Rick Riordan (My favourite Author) has released Percy Jackson's Greek Myths (or Gods - can't remember) just last week I'm doing a post about some of my favourite books

First up is Percy Jackson. No surprise there. Percy Jackson tells the story of Percseus Jackson, a kid with ADHD and Dylexia. Percy, as he is known as, has a reputation for being a Trouble Maker. The series starts off as 12yr old Percy faces one of his first monster battles. I won't spoil it but we can infer that in Titan's Curse and Battle Of The Labyrith he is 14 because they are the winter and summer of that year and because at the end of BOTL Percy turns 15. The last book, The Last Olympian, he turns 16. You will find this Book in the R (Riordan) section

 

The Next is The Heroes of Olympus Series, the follow up of Percy Jackson. This series brings in Jason, Piper, Leo, Hazel and Frank as the new great prophecy is set in motion. The first book (The Lost Hero) you met Jason, Piper and Leo and Coach Hedge. Jason has no memories and Leo and Piper have false memories of him because of Hera. Percy is missing and Annbeth is a minor character in this book. Hazel and Frank are introduced in the second book (Son of Neptune). Percy has no memories and is headed for Camp (Not Camp Half Blood, mind you). At the end of the book, They are seen headed for a ship. The thrid book (Mark of Athena) picks up in Annabeth's pov (point of view for all you non writers) just before Percy, Hazel and Frank met them. The end is pretty much the worst ending of Rick's. It's dreadful - if you haven't alreay read this series you're lucky that you didn't have to wait a whole year. The 4th book (House of Hades) picks up from there. Blood of Olympus is coming out in just over a month.


 it looks awesome doesn't it *fangirling*

The Hunger Games is a pretty good series. This book has been made into a moive with #3 coming out soon. Unfourtunly I haven't seen the movies yet but the Hunger Games is permering on TV tonight so I can't recomend it. That reminds me, even if it's slightly off topic, The Percy Jackson Movies are okay but they are filled with mistakes. Anyway, back to the point. The Hunger Games is revoled around Katniss Everdeen. She and her family live in District 12 in a furture world. Every year two kids are sent to the hunger games to go against 22 other people from the 11 other districts. When Katniss' little sister is reaped, Katniss takes her place, vowing to come home. The other kid chosen is Peeta. Peeta hides a dark secret. He loves Katniss

Divergant is a series which is taking the world by storm. I have read them all are they are pretty good but I say they are for more mature aduidances. This trilogy revoles around Tris Prior, her world,where fractions defind who you are, is falling apart. It's a good read and the movie is pretty actrute btu that's because the author is actually one of the producers.'

My final recomendation is the Ranger's Aprrentic series. My friend has recently introduced me to this series and it's really good. This series consist of 12 books which revole around Will, a orphan who was left at Castle Redmount since he was baby. When he is chosen by Halt, the feif's ranger, as his apprentice, Will is sure and does whatever he can to please him. Books 1-4 and 7 are stories of his apprenticeship to Halt. Books 5-6 and 8-12 are after he has come a graudiate Ranger with his own feif. Because the events of book 7 happen before 5+6 I recomend that you read that one first as it will make much more sense. Unfourtunly I'm only up to the 6th book (I've already read the 7th) so I don't really know much about this series. Some of the other characters are Alyss (his childhood wardmate/ best friend), Horace (An old friend from when they were both Wards, but they weren't really as close as they are now),  Gilan (Halt's former apprentice before Will, he and Gilan are good friends and have been on assiments together) and Halt (He plays a major part in this series, duh)

That's all folks. Nutmeg signing off

Stuff 101

Hey everyone it's Nutmeg. So today I'm going to post somethings that I concider the top tv shows.

First up is Ninjago.

Ninjago is an animatied series on Cartoon Network. It revolves aroung the lives of five ninja. Kai, Cole, Zane, Jay and Lloyd. Together, along with Sensei Wu and Kai's younger sister, Nya, They fight evil and save Ninjago. Unfourtunly for Lloyd, his father seems to be the problem for most of the series. That is until Ninjago Rebooted - the third season. And it's even harder when the final battle comes. You see he's the Green Ninja, destined to stop the Dark Lord. AKA Lord Garmadon - His father. In Rebooted, from which I gather, it's been a few years since the final battle. Also the city is renamed New Ninjago City and it's a technogoical wonder. Unfourtunly I haven't seen all the episodes so I don't know what happens. Actually I do because my friend spoiled it for me.

Next up is Gravity Falls

Gravity Falls is an animatied series on Disney. This series revolves around twins Dipper and Mabel Pines who are sent to Gravity Falls to saty with their Grunkle Stan for the summer. There, Dipper find. Together along with their friends Wendy and Soos they try to piece together the mysterys of Gravity Falls. Season 2 has just premired with episode 3 coming out on the 11th in America on Disney XD.

Winx Club is celebrating their 10th birthday. This series has 6 seasons depending on what version you watch. We are currenlty waiting for episode 17 in english but it will be a while. WInx Club revoles around six girls who are actually fairies. The first couple of seasons are about Bloom, who discovers that she isn't as oridanary as she throught. When she meets Stella, Stella convinces her to come to Alfea, collage for fairies. There they meet Musa, Tecna and Flora. Together they battle witches. In the second series they meet Aisha or Layla in the 4Kids version. It's a good series with two moives and another comming out this year.

So that's all I have to say for now. If you have already seen these I sudgest Tenkai Knights or Max Steel. Or Danny Phantom or American Dragon:Jake Long. Or Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja

I'm having trouble desiding pt3 - With Bailey Tucker (non-secret trio verison)

Hi guys, Nutmeg here. I know, I promised that I would post more offten.

SO... latley my excuses are this

  • Homework
  • School Holidays
  • My birthday (just last week)
  • School
  • Sleeping
  • Reading
  • Watching stuff
this is what you've all been waiting for. Unfourtunly I don't have two paragraphs sorted. I am using all the characters from the secret trio verison expect for Beck Turner. I am replacing Beck with Bailey Tucker. They have the same personlities and look similar - Bailey doesn't have a tattoo.


Wayne and I land with a thump. I look around. There was no city. No trees. Nothing. Just a barren desert.
And Wayne.
“Where are we?” Wayne asks quietly.
“Where do you think? There’s no humanity for miles!” I yell sarcastically. Wayne backed away with his hands up. It was not a good start. I grab Wayne’s bag and find his “trusty” pocket knife.
“What are you doing?” Wayne asks suspiciously. I sigh. Why did I get stuck with this guy?
“If we’re going to survive here I’ll need to cut my hair so that I don’t over heat,” I finally reply. Wayne looks at me. He’s about to speak. I give him the stare and take a deep breath. I brought my hair round onto my shoulder, flip the knife up. It touches my hair. In one swift movement, strands of brown hair descends down and lands on the scorching desert floor. Wayne rolls his eyes. Typical boy. Close by is a wooden crate. Whoever put us here had some common sense to give us some supplies. Wayne jumps on it and the wood snaps. Most, if not all the contents were useless here in the desert. Who needs the complete Narnia collection and flippers while trekking to the closest city? Wayne started to rummage around.
“EUREKA!” He yells suddenly. In his hand was a canteen. I grab it and open it to see how much water was left. A full bottle.
“Lets get going,” I mutter, swinging the canteen over my shoulder.

“Can. We. Stop?” Wayne asks between breaths. I shook my head. I take a breath and stood still. It wasn’t clean, fresh air like it was back home.  But it would have to do. I scan the area. The sun was behind us and there is still no sign of civilianisation. All I can see is sand, sand and Wayne. I open the canteen. Only half left. We need to conserve it. I take a tiny sip. Not enough to quench my thirst but enough so that I didn’t get too dehydrated.
“Piper, can I have the canteen?” Wayne asks. I hand it to him.
“Only a tiny sip Wayne, we don’t have much left,” I reply. He nods. I start walking again. We travel in silence. There is no use in using our energy to talk. I start thinking about the others. Were they too in a barren wasteland, trying to get home? Thats when I remembered the reason why Wayne and I were here.
“When we get home, Randy isn’t going to be a happy person,” I mutter.

“Wayne, where’s the canteen?” I ask, some hours later. There was no reply. This could only mean one thing. Wayne had finally lost his voice. I almost yell in joy. But... Wayne hadn't been talking. Maybe he had fallen behind. I stop and turn around. Wayne smiles. He was hiding something.
The canteen.
I sigh. He must have drank all the water.
“That water was the only water we had left, it was supposed to support both of us!” I yell.
“Well we won’t need it because the city is over the horizon,” Wayne says, pointing to the east. I couldn’t see anything.
“How did you know that?” I ask
“The water bottle told me so,” Wayne replies.
“Let’s go then!” I say, running off. Wayne follows. We would survive.

Sorry for the chifhanger.
Nutmeg out :) ♥☺

I'm having a problem desiding pt 2- With Beck Turner (The Secret Trio Version)

Randy’s pov
“Now we just need the black ninja,” Piper said, ticking off the white ninja on her list. I thought; I only knew one black ninja; Shadow or Beck Turner.
“What’s the exact shade of black?” I asked
“Shadow or Midnight,” Piper replied “Do you know them?”
“Yeah, I do but you missed her by two months,” I said casually.
“Wait, you’re saying that the last ninja which is needed to save the earth is missing?” Yandi asked
“No, Beck Turner moved back to New Zealand two months ago,” I replied “She’s the female ninja called Shadow,”
“And she’s not coming back anytime soon, that’s for sure;” Brandon sighed “We’ll never win now,”
“It’s December right? In New Zealand they have a wacky way for school, December is their summer holidays, two weeks in December and the whole month of January,” Olivia said
“By the way, New Zealand is not wack, it’s the US,” A voice said “I don’t get why you start in September or why you use grades,”
“Who knows about this tree house Randy?” Peter asked
“Howard but he’s out of the country, Jake Long, Danny Fenton and Beck,” I replied “Jake and Danny are busy in their own home towns,”
“So the only one who would know about this is Beck,” Peter said.
“And I have to agree with Beck on this one, it’s smart to have school start in February and end it in December,” I told them “But I guess we’re on the other side of the world,”
“Unless I’m actually on America Soil, then I’m here ready to fight,” The voice said.
“And it’s summer holidays,” I said “Come on in Beck,”
“I prefer to stay in the shadows, you know that Randy,” Beck replied
“Don’t go all Shadow on me now Beck,” I glared.
“But what if I am Shadow?” Beck replied, laughing as she walked through the door.
“Dual personalities can be really annoying at times,” Olivia said.
“Actually it can be helpful, take it from me, I spent a whole year as Shadow and that didn’t turn out so good,” Beck replied “Let’s just say, this isn’t how I remembered Norrisville,”
“Good times they were,” I muttered. The others looked at us.
“At least there’s no more DNG, otherwise they’d be on your case 24/7,” Beck said, eyeing the others “Who are these lot?”
“Randy, I don’t believe you when you say this is the black ninja,” Piper said.
“Beck, I would like you to meet the other seven ninjas of Norrisville,” I said “Let’s
Just say together, we’re almost unstoppable,”
“Almost? Don’t tell me, there’s great concaquises, why did I ever get tangled up with you?” Beck groaned.
“She’s good,” Brandon muttered.
“My names Wayne Black, White Ninja, Apprentice number 1,” Wayne said, pulling out a black and white mask.
“Peter Brown, and don’t laugh but I’m the pink ninja, apprentice number 3,” Peter sighed, pulling out a pink and black mask. Beck Shrugged.
“Piper Chile, Purple, number 4,” Piper said, showing her mask.
“I’m Brandon King, My favourite colour is blue and I’m apprentice number 5,” Brandon said, smiling. Beck blushed.
“Georgia May, I’m the green ninja and apprentice number 6!”Georgia yelled, excitedly.
“Yandi, Yellow, number 7,” Yandi muttered.
“Well at least I know someone from another country that moved to Norrisville,” Beck said
“Olivia Goodwin, Light Orange Ninja, Number 8,” Olivia monotone “And I don’t approve on tattoos,” She said, looking at Beck’s left arm.
“And you know who I am, Red Ninja – Number Nine,” I said, shrugging “Your turn,”
“Beck Turner and/or Shadow. It depends on my mood at the time and what I’m wearing, I guess I’m the black ninja and number two,” Beck said. She brought out her mask to prove it.
“Wayne, ironic surname and the fact that Bruce Wayne is Batman, Peter – I know a lot of boys who like the colour pink, I don’t like your tone Piper, Brandon you’re welcome to be my king, Georgia you remind me of Pinkie Pie from My Little Pony, Olivia – there are things in life that I wish that didn’t happen and things that didn’t happen to you lot but happened to some friends and I. Randy it’s good to see you again,” Beck said “I’m not explain my tattoo, plus if you ask the person who did won’t even remember me or Shadow, Like I said a whole year as Shadow,”
“And some other weird things,” I mutter. Piper looked at us. She frowned.
“Is there something going on between you two?” She asked.
“For ninjas, you’re pretty bad if you haven’t notice that Randy likes someone else,” Beck said “If you hadn’t noticed Piper, now I get it, sorry I get off track at times, I’m crushing on someone else,”
“So, but there’s something you and Randy aren’t telling us isn’t there?” Piper replied.  I looked at Beck.
“So what if there is? It’s not like you would believe us anyway and plus it never really happened and the only people who can back us up are super busy with their own lives,” I replied, smiling.
“I’ve got to get going, I have homework to do,” Olivia said, picking up her bag. The others muttered their excuses and left the tree house.
“So where are you staying?” I asked Beck. She looked shocked.
“Didn’t your mother tell you? I’m staying with you,” She replied, smiling “Plus we need to talk about you know what,” Her smile faded. My smile faded. What she was talking about was serious – we hadn’t talked about this since the day it happened. What she was talking about was something that never really happened.
“What are we going to do, Piper knows we’re hiding something,” Beck whispered “She’ll make the connections, I can tell, she’ll go through the school yearbooks to check, then she’ll research Shadow, then she’ll research Danny Fenton and Jake Long,” I did not like where this is going.
“We defiantly can’t tell anyone, we made a promise to you know who,” I said.
“And then Piper will manipulate Olivia to help her research their connections to Danny Phantom and The American Dragon, then, when she has gathered enough information, she’ll tell everyone and force me to explain my tattoo which, like I told Olivia, I do NOT want to do,” Beck continued.
“And you got that from only two exchanges?” I asked. She nodded
“Of course I did – once you learn something you never really forget it,” I laughed.
“Come on, let’s get inside – Mum’s getting pizza,” I said, jumping out of the tree house

This a totally different scene that will come later.

“Okay Piper if you really want to know, I’ll tell you,” Beck yelled “Each line represents someone, the top one is Danny Phantom, the second one is The American Dragon and the third – the ninja of Norrisville, I got it when I was 18,”
“But you’re only 16, it’s unrealistic,” Olivia said.
“Beck was once 18, just on a different time line,” I butted in “Danny, Jake, Beck and I were all on a different time line, two actually. The original time line. In this time line we had to change otherwise the universe would go kaput, Clockwork – someone who I rather not mention – changed out ages, I stayed the same, Beck became two years older than me, Jake four and Danny six,”
“I still became Shadow because of my request of when I found out that my dad went missing, I then went to New York where we met once again – Randy on winter break, I wondering the streets, Jake studying to become an engeearie and Danny as a suritecy man for a couple groups. There we found out about DNG. DNG was a group of people who want to hunt down and destroy all Dragons, The ninja of Norrisville and Ghosts. My mother, who I had thought to have died when I was five months old, and my father, who went missing the year before, was a part of it,” Beck kept going
“Because the Ninja of Norrisville was only one person, we knew they would come after me first, Beck came back to Norrisville to protect me and keep an eye on me by becoming the new school janitor. We defeated them DNG, well actually Clockwork combined the new with the original with some changes. Beck’s mum really did die when she was five months old and we would remember what had happened. We promised each other that we would never tell anyone this because it’s really confusing and it’s personal,” I concluded.
“You were keeping that from us the whole time!” Yandi yelled “We’re supposed to be a team. We’re supposed to tell everything!” Everyone starred at him.
“Okay, that was weird,” Brandon whispered “So is that the only reason?”
“Of course it is!” Beck yelled “Dude, I thought you would believe me when I said you don’t want to know! I thought it was clear that Randy and I didn’t want to talk about it. Heck we haven’t even written to each other about it, it was so bad that that we just couldn’t! I watch my mum die in front of me because she and my dad tricked me!”
“No there’s more, I know there is,” Piper said “Beck and Randy like each other, I’ve checked your room, there’s a stack of hand written letters from Beck,”
“Piper, I’m not allowed any technology that could hurt my little sister, no computer and no telephone. I had to write by hand!” Beck yelled “And, Sorry Randy, Randy likes Theresa!”
“I’m going to kill you Beck,” I mutter. She rolls her eyes.

“Look, Piper, I don’t get why you can’t be happy not knowing something about me and Randy that we promised never to tell anyone about!” She finally said “But if you want to be that way, I quit, I go back to New Zealand in less than a week, and I’ll be out of your hair and you out of mine. I’m going solo, I’ve never been a group person, never have never will be,” And with that Beck jumped out the window, pulling her mask over her head and headed towards the city

Hope you enjoyed my writing. Just so that you don't go huh when you see the part when Brandon says that was werid - Yandi is a shy and quiet boy who never yells
Nutmeg Out (For Now)

I'm having trouble deciding pt 1 - The problem

Hey, Nutmeg here. As you would have seen in my last post, I am writng about 30 stories at once. I have an idea, I have to put it down. The I forget about what I was working on. So here's the sitch...

One of my stories that I am writng is about Danny Phantom, American Dragon: Jake Long and Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja. In this story one of my main characters is Beck Turner. In the first story (The Secret Trio) Beck is being hunted by Monsters and Ghosts. One Day after she gets home from Norrisville High, she finds out that her dad is missing. Julie, her step mum doesn't understand when Beck yells that she's an orphan. You see Julie was never told that Beck's mum had died when Beck was only Five Months old and that Beck grew up with only a dad. Earlier she recives from a bag from S.Ward Smith (obivous hint if you have seen Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja) which contains a ninja mask and ninja weapons. That Night after the movies, Beck uses the mask to fight a monster that has come after her. The Ninja (Who she discovers is Randy) comes to help save her like the other times that she has needed it. Then a Dragon apears and it turns out that When the ninja isn't saving her it's the American Dragon. The Next Monday after a fight with a ghost, Jake Long (The new Student who has befriended Randy, Howard and Beck), Randy, Howard and Beck met Danny Fenton who is really Danny Phantom. These three heroes have all saved Beck from monsters or ghosts sometime the week before. Together, along with Shadow (Beck's hero name) they try to fight the people who are coming to destroy Beck. Clockwork shows up and changes the time line so that Beck is 17, Jake is 19 and Danny is 21 and that they never knew each other.
The second story is set the next year (The Secret Trio: Reborn) in New York. Randy, Jake, Danny and Beck all meet each other once again and find out about a group called the DNG. DNG is about destroying Dragons, the Ninja of Norrisville and Ghosts. Beck's parents are somehow involed with them.
In The Secret Trio: Dragons, Ninja and Ghosts, Beck follows Randy back home to Norrisville so that if anything happens, she'll be ready. Beck discovers something that shatters her life. Her Parents are alive and are a part of DNG. SHe formulates a plan. Clockwork shows up once again and reverts the time line so that Beck's mum really did die when she was five months old, Jake, Danny and Beck were back to being 16 year olds. Beck Leaves Norrisville to go back to Matamata, New Zealand (Her hometown).

I want to use Beck Turner as a character in one of my stories so that it adds suspence and tension between the group of nine ninja in Norrisville. The problem is that it doesn't add up and it could be better if I didn't make a refernece to The Secret Trio. I will post two paragraphs of each verison and let you chose which is better.
