"No one said being a hero is easy."

Sensei arrived with his gong today. He always does that to rouse us in the morning. Today was another day of training, another normal day. What I didn't know that morning is that all of that would be altered.

Lloyd, Jay, Cole, Kai and I were training, for the sake of training. At least that's what Kai said. So, we trained for the sake of training.

Soon after, Nya, Kai's younger sister, erupted into the room.

"Guys," she says, clearly distressed, "It's Sensei."

The six of us dashed down the hallway to Sensei's room. When we arrive, the door is ajar and the entire place is derelict.

"Where is he?" Lloyd ponders aloud.

"I dunno," Cole murmurs.

"There has to be a note, a sign, a clue, a SOMETHING!" Jay yells, getting delirious.

There seemed to be an unspoken agreement between the six of us. Everyone diffused throughout the room in search of anything that would lead to Sensei's whereabouts.

"I found something!" Lloyd's voice comes from behind me.

Kai asks as we run over, "What?"

"A note."

"Don't be shy, read it!" Kai demands.

Lloyd brushes a lock of platinum blonde hair out of his face before reading, "It says: 'If you ever want to see your Sensei again, send the green one to the foot of the Mountains of Impossible Height, at midnight when the moon is full. If more than one comes, Sensei Wu will never see you again.' It's signed by 'D'."

"D?" I inquire, "As in an abbreviation?"

"I guess."

Cole's brow furrows, "Do we know anyone whose name starts with 'D'?

"Not that I know of." Nya adds in.

Jay trembles, "Then who could it be?"

Kai has a determined look on his face, "Whoever took Sensei better be prepared because when we come after them, they won't stand a chance."

He's halfway right. Because the note said only Lloyd would go. But you never know what will happen when we attempt to get our Sensei back.
