Summary
'The rink manager had been a bit vague with closing times over the festive period but they had come to an arrangement. He would say hello to a wad of paper notes with some old Land of Fire guy’s face on them, and she would get the rink all to herself from 9pm. Everyone got what they wanted.
Apart from the fact that he was here, slicing up her beautiful new zambonied ice.'

Summary
The councilor looks up at her. “Any questions?”
“No, Sir.”
He nods.
“Good,” he says, not seeming to care too much about the situation at hand. Perhaps they send out more people across the world than she thinks. He lifts a hand and gestures between her and the man. “Temari, this is Shikamaru Nara. Your husband.”

She found him already at the loading bay, leaning against the rear bumper of the assigned Jeep like he had nothing better to do.
“You’re late,” he said without looking up.
“I’m ten minutes early.”
“Yeah,” he drawled, “but I’ve been here fifteen.”
She dropped her gear beside his. “Must’ve been exhausting for you.”
“It was,” he deadpanned. “Nearly napped against the bumper.”
“Poor thing.”

Summary
In every story worth telling, a hero would rise to the challenge of monsters and win the battle to save the world. No one had ever bothered to tell Ronan about the fate of a hero in a world that had overcome the edge of disaster.
The Pacific Rim has been closed for more than three months, in the most impressive feat of the Jaegers and the Pan Pacific Defence Corps, when Ronan Lynch comes back alone from a surprise attack to the Greywaren. The world has been saved from the apocalypse but greed towards formidable weapons is quick to return. The Shatterdome will have to brace for the impact and find a way to counter the threat even before fully understanding it.
A story of shattered people, scarred families and found families. A story about what you stand for, when destruction comes from the shadows. Beyond saving the world, this is a story about finding your place in it.
