So, first chapter for this experimental story I've got going on in my head. I'm not much for words, so I hope you like it. Remember, like, follow, review!

The young seventeen year old Italian ruffled her jet black short hair, pulling on her black tights & black tank top. She set a small green amulet around her neck, then set her red framed 'nerd' glasses on her pale tan face. Actually, as much as people told her that she just wore them to show off her hipster style, she really did need them to see.

Her long, slender, yet muscular body still ached from yesterday's training. Her first day as a ninja. Today was her second. No doubt, she was still skeptic about all this, but as she was contemplating her decision to join this organization, she heard Wuyu return from her excursion. She stood to her feet, pulling on her, also black of course, ninja slippers, & went out to meet her teacher.

Wuyu was walking into the monastery gates. Her bamboo staff helped her get over the step down into the main courtyard. Her straw hat covered her face from the sun's hot rays.

Then someone followed her inside. Cale stopped in her tracks. Who was this?

The girl had champagne blonde hair, cyan blue eyes, & a long slim figure. She wasn't very muscular. There was some tone in her arms, & legs. She wore white clothing. Short white crop top, little white short shorts. White sneakers adorned her feet. The girl was incredibly pale. As if a vampire had sucked the very color from her skin.

The ebony haired female screwed up her face in contempt. Why on Ninjago would Wuyu ever bring someone like this into the monastery? She kept herself hidden behind the wooden wall, watching as her sensei walked calmly across the training yard, the other girl trailing after, looking around with sparkling eyes.

"Cale!" Her teacher called out to her, "I know you're behind the doorframe, so you can just come out. Training begins shortly anyway."

Cale laughed nervously, scratching the back of her neck, as she walked out from behind her hiding place. The newcomer's eyes widened a little, a smile tugging at the edge of her lips. Wuyu set one arm out to the blonde, "This is Zeyn. She will be joining you in training to be a ninja. I presume this will be fine with you." Without waiting for an answe. She answered for her young student, "Good."

The short haired teen was left with her jaw open in silent protest, a finger up as she had been about to speak.

She saw Zeyn giggle a bit at this, & Cale shot her a look. Zeyn stopped immediately. The shorter girl smirked, setting her hands on her hips in victory. Wuyu stuck her head out from the door.

"Cale, Zeyn, follow me please instead of staring at each other like neither of you have ever seen another female."

The two girls blushed, then headed off after her into the rooms. They began walking along the many spare bed chambers Wuyu had in her monastery, & Zeyn turned to look at Cale, finally deciding to try to make friends.

"Hi."

Cale didn't shift her gaze, but spoke, "Hey."

"How long have you been training here?"

"Since yesterday."

"oh..." The tall blonde fell silent.

They continued without words, then the sensei stopped them, opening a door at their left, consequentially next to Cale's room. She led the two teenagers inside, standing in the center. "Zeyn, this is your room. It connects with the three joining rooms by sliding screen doors. The handles are at the far left. You'll find clothes in your drawers for training, & sleeping. Any other problems, & please come tell me, & I will do what I can to accommodate you. Questions?"

Zeyn shook her blonde locks with a smile, "No. I will be fine. Thank you." Wuyu returned the grin, then went to close the door to let her newest pupil settle in, "You two chat for a bit. Breakfast in one hour. Then training." And with that, the sensei left them in another awkward silence.

Zeyn glanced again at her teammate. Cale noticed, looking to her, "Hey again. Sorry for earlier. I just didn't know too much about what was goin on. I think sensei already told you my name, but I'll introduce myself anyway. I'm Cale Brookstone." The champagne blonde kept a fairly stoic face, but bowed slightly, & did likewise, "I am Zeyn Julien. It is lovely to meet your acquaintance."

Cale didn't know what to do, & seeing her new roommate bow, decided that would be appropriate.

"So," the raven haired teen began, shuffling her foot, "Guess we're roommates or something. You okay with that?" She earned a quick nod of approval. "Yes, I am alright with the decisions made by our master."

Cale quirked a brow, 'Master? Does she mean sensei? Well, she's kinda weird, but she seems pretty okay. I'm sure she'll be a great asset. She looks very capable.' Then, beaming up at the taller girl, she showed her around the building, the game room, the dining hall, & at last, back to their rooms, where they dressed for training.

Zeyn looked on a bit blankly as her new friend ruffled her dark hair in the mirror, then happy with it, turned to her, & smiled, in her full outfit. "Ta-da!"

The older girl had not the slightest of how to react. And why had Cale expressed such emotion about changing into a simple training gi? She had to admit, it fit her well in all the right places, but she didn't understand.

"It looks very nice on you." She settled on saying at last.

She nearly gave out a sigh of relief when Cale blushed. The response was correct! Thank goodness. Zeyn fixed her belt one last time, & they went to the dining hall for breakfast. Wuyu already sat at the head of the table, ready with a pot of tea & two teacups for the others, her own in her hand. Various fruits sat in bowls, sliced, & prepared for consumption. Apparently, this was what the sensei thought of as a full meal.

Yet, it didn't phase Cale in the least bit. She didn't eat much anyways. It wasn't like she was changing her habits. Zeyn on the other hand, how much did she usually eat? Was this going to be enough for her?

Cale sat herself down on the bench that ran along the side of the low tea table. Zeyn found a spot next to her, & began to fill her cup with tea, moving on to the fruit & starting to eat. The ebony haired blinked, then began her meal as well. The sensei watched the two females in silence, a smirk etched onto her lips as she took a sip of her drink.
