Chapter 1:

Last Stall on the Left


Randy: (Narrating) Aaanndd now I'm realizing that this probably wasn't the best topic for my essay. *shreds up paper*

Mr. Bannister: What's this supposed to be?

Randy: Uhh, my commentary on the fleeting nature of summer?

Mr. Bannister: Hmmm, excellent use of metaphors!

Randy: ACED IT!

Mr. Bannister: I'll give you a B.

Randy: B-CED IT!


Nomicon sat in the middle of the doodled rock, surrounded by water. He sat, waiting patiently for the others. He only looked up when he heard someone drop down behind him.

"It is time."

Turning around, Nomicon was greeted to the sight of his old friend, the First Ninja.

"Is it? Has the Messenger collected the mask and book?"

"Yes."

"Then where is he? We must decide on the next Ninja."

Both turned when they heard a cough from the edge of the waterfall. The Messenger stepped into the light, grinning underneath his hat. "I already got one picked out." He drawled.

Nomicon shot him a wary glance, "And who might this be?"

The Messenger smirked and gave the First Ninja a meaningful glance, "It is his time."

Nomicon narrowed his eyes in suspicion when First Ninja gave a small chuckle. "And who might this be? Have you two been keeping secrets?"

Messenger shook his head, still smiling, "Naw, just waiting to surprise you. This boy is going to be one of the best Ninja's ever, I guarantee it. He has one of the purest hearts I have seen in eight centuries."

"Even if he is a bit of an airhead, and more stubborn than a mule." First Ninja said dryly.

Nomicon rested his head on his hand, looking between his two friends. "And just why do you think he qualifies to be the next Ninja?"

"Because he has already proven himself. Nine years ago."

Both Nomicon and First Ninja raised their eyebrows, incredulous looks on both their faces.

"You never told us this," First Ninja pointed out.

"How exactly did he prove himself when he was only five years old?" Nomicon asked.

"The Ninja of three cycles ago, in his last year, had a stanked teacher. The teacher had lost some pre-schoolers in the high school. The two pre-schoolers had broken into the school, to prove the Ninja was real. Sometime during the fight, the Ninja was smacked away and dropped his sword. The stanked teacher started going after one of the boys. The other boy, picked up the sword and sliced through her beloved possession: her apron, thus D-stanking her. The boy never flinched at the sight of an attacking monster once. I was pretty impressed."

Nomicon hummed thoughtfully. First Ninja glanced at Messenger, "How did he know how to de-stank her?"

Messenger gave an all out laugh, "The Ninja of that cycle asked him the same thing. His answer: He didn't know, he was trying to cut off her head."

First Ninja laughed with Messenger while Nomicon rolled his eyes, "It seems to me that you have already chosen him."

"I chose him nine years ago," Messenger said, "He will make you proud, Nomi."

Nomicon scowled, "Don't call me that." He waved his hand and the pages in the book reacted with him, forming a hole near Messenger. "Just drop off the box, I want to meet this new Ninja."

The Messenger gave one last knowing smirk as he took one step behind him, dropping out of the book. Nomicon felt his consciousness leave.

First Ninja jumped off the rock and vaulted over the doodled water, "You will have fun with this ninja. I promise you that." Then he disappeared into the shadows.


"He's an idiot."

Nomicon glared at the ground as he and First Ninja walked down the Hallway of Lessons.

"You haven't even given him a chance yet, Nomi." First Ninja pointed out.

"Don't call me that," Nomicon said sharply, "He wrote an essay about being the Ninja. Not to mention he hasn't even opened the book yet. How am I supposed to train and help him if he hasn't even opened the book."

First Ninja scoffed, "Most of the new Ninjas don't open the book right way. And he quickly ripped the essay to where no one could read it. He even got a B for it."

Nomicon rolled his eyes, "The teachers get dumber every year. How is shredded paper a metaphor for the 'commentary of the fleeting nature of summer.'?"

First Ninja chuckled, "You have to admire Randy for the quick thinking though. That is a good quality for keeping the secret of the Ninja."

"He hasn't even found the weapons in the suit yet." Nomicon retorted.

"Hasn't that always been the first lesson?" First Ninja argued. "Why are you so determined to undermine Randy's potential as the next Ninja."

Nomicon was quiet as they continued down the everlasting hall.

After several moments of silence, First Ninja chuckled.

"You know, he reminds me of someone."

Nomicon looked over at his friend, "Who?"

First Ninja walked ahead of Nomicon, his eyes twinkling with mischief as he looked back at his friend. "A stubborn consciousness that was trapped in book of eternal ninja knowledge used to train future warriors." Then he disappeared into one of the shadows.

Nomicon scowled, "That is not funny."


Nomicon sat in the dojo, rubbing his temples. First Ninja was leaning up against a nearby pillar, watching his red-haired friend amusedly.

"What kind of Ninja," Nomicon said slowly, "Arranges a 'meet-and-greet' just to show off?"

First Ninja chuckled, "Randy is an unusual Ninja. Give him time, he will make you proud."

Nomicon was about to give a sharp reply when he felt Randy grab the book.

Nomicon glared at his friend, "It's about time I met this Randy. He was hopeless in that battle without proper weapons or training."

Nomicon closed his eyes as he focused his mind through the pages, manipulating drawings, doodles, and pages to his will as he greeted the new Ninja. After all, he doesn't meet the Ninjas personally so he must make a lasting impression through doodles.

He felt Randy falling through to the first lesson, the drawings of ninjas, samurais, and the occasional dragon coming to life as the teenager fell.

Nomicon winced as he felt Randy face plant straight into the first lesson and slide down to a stop.

"Believe in the weapon that is in the suit?" He heard Randy say.

Nomicon nodded. One of the easiest lessons to learn, and the most important.

"Ok, what's in the suit?"

Nomicon frowned as he felt some of the more colorful doodles wrench away from his control and point towards the teenager.

"He can't have formed it already..." Nomicon said softly to himself. First Ninja just raised an eyebrow as he watched his friend.

"I'm in the suit," Randy said slowly before getting an idea, "I'm the weapon. I just have to believe in ME!"

Nomicon shook his head and flicked his fingers. A paper ninja and skeleton claws blew the purple haired teenager out of the book in a colorful doodle explosion.

"Sometimes I think you have too much fun blowing people out of the book,"

Nomicon finally opened his eyes and shot First Ninja a smirk. "It's only my favorite part. There are so many different ways to dispel someone's mind out of the book. I like to explore every possible way."

"What did he do? Knowing Randy, he did something."

Nomicon stood up, brushing himself off out of habit, "He has already formed a bond between us."

First Ninja's eyes went wide and he stopped leaning on the pillar. Instead he stood tall as he gazed at his friend incredulously. "He did what?" First Ninja asked softly.

Nomicon shook his head in amazement, "He has formed the bond between him and the book, allowing himself to see the doodles. I have never seen a Ninja learn that skill so quickly. It usually takes months. No other Ninja has learned it on the first day." Nomicon's gaze wandered above him as he watched random doodles form and erase at the top of the dojo. "But that wasn't quite what amazed me. He did it completely unconsciously. I doubt he is aware of the skill he possesses."

"Does this mean I get to say 'I told you so'?" Messenger walked up to his friends as Nomicon glared at him. First Ninja just chuckled at his friend's expression.

"Fine. He has the makings of a great Ninja. I will admit that. But I see no reason why you should get to say you told me so."

"Stubborn book."

Nomicon scowled at his friend as he flicked his fingers. Doodled ribbons shot out from the sides as they wrapped around Messenger's legs. Nomicon jerked his head up slightly and the ribbons followed his movements, flipping the messenger upside down.

Messenger crossed his arms and glared at Nomicon as he hung upside down above their heads. "Funny, Nomi. Aren't you acting childish today."

Nomicon smirked as he turned on his heel, allowing the ribbons to drop his friend on his head. "Don't call me that."

Then Nomicon frowned. Both Messenger and First Ninja noticed the glazed and concerned expression on the teacher's face.

Both were a little taken back when they heard sharp Japanese curses come from their normally passive friend.

"As I said before," Nomicon said angrily turning back towards his friends, his golden eyes flashing, "He's an idiot."

"And just what did he do?" First Ninja asked warily.

Nomicon started pacing back and forth between his two friends, the black cape fluttering behind him. "He told his civilian friend that he was the Ninja. The one that can't keep his mouth shut! The one that has a sister with the third most popular web show!"

First Ninja and Messenger were silent as they watched their friend pace between them and rant. Once he finally stopped, First Ninja placed a hand on Nomicon's shoulder. "My friend, I think this might be a good thing."

Nomicon looked at him like he had suddenly turned green and started speaking in Russian. "Please tell me you are joking. This is a disaster!"

Messenger shook his head, "Naw. I'm with Fin on this Nomi. His friend knowing will be the best thing to do, rather than Howard not knowing. You don't know Randy like me and Fin do yet."

"You and your ridiculous nicknames," Nomicon shook his head, "I don't like this. I still believe nothing good will come out of this."

"Well then, we'll just have to watch and see won't we friend?"


I was inspired.

Thank you Elcall for the inspiration! I suggest you read her fanfic 'RC9GN Oneshots!'. It's a bunch of deleted scenes and alternate endings to everyone's favorite episodes. It's super bruce.

Nomi and Randy will never meet face to face. Sorry. It would deviate from how I want this story to turn out and I don't want that.

First Ninja...FN...Fin. Just thought I'd let you know.

If you want to know how I have envisioned Nomicon, go to DeviantArt and type in Momicon. Yes I spelled that right. It should be the second one down labeled 'RC9GN: Momicon?'. Just ignore his black eye color in the drawing and imagine him without that mouth covering. Also, it doesn't work typing the whole thing in, I checked.

You should already know what First Ninja and Messenger look like. First Ninja is literally the First Ninja. His first appearance is in 'Randy Cunningham: 13th Century Ninja' I believe, I'm too lazy to check right now. And the Messenger is the guy in the cowboy hat you see in the window of the first episode. Who also makes cameo appearances in a lot of random episodes in the back ground. He's also a bus driver.

For new Ninja fans who haven't seen every episode. The whole proving himself when he was five thing really did happen on the series, as well as Messenger being there to see it. It's the episode 'When Howie Met Randy'. It's about when Howard and Randy first met. For those of y'all that are obsessed with chronological order and things actually making sense (don't worry, I'm in this group too) I did plan out Randy's age in accordance to that Ninja in that episode.

Randy is 5 when that Ninja is in his Senior year. 5-Senior, 6-Freshman (New Ninja), 7-Sophomore, 8-Junior, 9-Senior, 10-Freshman (New Ninja), 11-Sophomore, 12-Junior, 13-Senior, 14-Freshman (Randy) See! It fits!

As for the bond thing between the book and Randy, I kinda just made that up. It makes sense to me, and it explains how Randy is able to see the doodles, as well as the Nomicon having some foresight about what will happen to Randy in the future. Make sense?

I think that's all I have to say and/or explain about this chapter and story. Oh wait, I will be doing every single episode in order, so don't worry if you don't see your favorite episode right away. Also, not all of the Author's Notes will be this long. Just explaining things in the beginning so I don't have to repeat myself.
