The Return of the Samurai and the Ninja

Ch 1 Prologue.

A young couple walked out of a movie theater, holding hands and laughing about the movie they had just seen.

"I love the face that guy made when the aliens just materialized right in front of him," The man laughed as the woman chuckled and shook her head in response. "And did you see the way the other guy almost peed his pants when….." The man stopped talking and both he and the woman stopped dead in their tracks and ceased their laughter when right in front of them, a door from out of nowhere opened and a bright light emanated from the opening.

The man quickly let go of the woman's hand, turned and ran down the street while letting out a loud high pitch scream after he saw a rather large white rabbit dressed in black pants, sandals on his feet a blue kimono tied around his body with his ears tied at the top of his head in a topknot step out of the portal. The woman stood stock still and continued to stare in growing apprehension as the rabbit was followed by an even larger grey rhinoceros dressed in a white karate outfit with patches on the shoulders and a blue obi tied around his waist. Both large animals had long swords strapped to their sides and hard stern features as their paws gripped the hilt of their swords. The portal closed and the two strange looking creatures stared in awe as they took in their surroundings.

"Excuse me madam," the large white rabbit addressed her while bowing. "Would you perhaps know of a turtle by the name of Hamato Leonardo?"

The woman's jaw slacked opened upon hearing the large rabbit speak, she dropped her handbag and, letting out a loud scream, turned and fled while yelling out something about aliens attacking the city.

The large rhino turned to look at the large rabbit, "Do you think that is a 'no' Usagi?" He asked.

The rabbit, Usagi, shrugged his shoulders, "I am not sure my friend." He responded. "Leonardo did tell me the humans of his world tend to act rather strangely when faced with people they do not know."

"Well, let us find your Leonardo and complete our mission." The large rhino stated. He clapped his hand on Usagi's shoulder. "We have very little time before we must return to our world and save our own people."

Usagi nodded and the two began to walk down the street feeling strangely out of place as more and more people watched them while screaming in terror and running away. After several moments, the woman whom they had first encountered came back with two police men.

"There they are officers." She cried out, pointing at the large rabbit and rhino. "See, aliens!"

Usagi and the large rhino stopped and watched in growing confusion and apprehension as one officer took out a gun and shakily pointed at them. "Hhhhhold it right there yyyyou two." He demanded, his voice shaking almost as badly as his hand. "Put yyyour hands up aaaand drop your wwwwweapons."

The two large animals looked at each other in bewilderment. "What do you think we should do Usagi?"

"I guess we should do what this human tells us to do." Usagi responded as he brought his hands over his head.

"No offense to your Leonardo," His companion whispered to him as he too brought his hands above his head. He watched as the two policeman moved closer to them. "But I am not liking his world at all."

Usagi nodded in agreement as he watched one officer put away his gun, than very cautiously and very nervously come up beside them.
