A/N: I've wanted to write this for such a long time now and this is sort of what came out of it after waiting… months? Haha. Yes, procrastinators unite! inspired by the song 'Everybody Needs a Ninja' by Matthew Ebel

Everybody Needs A Ninja: The Odd Edition

"Ulrich, did you know that everyone on campus needs a ninja now to be cool?" said the blonde as he came into the room with his eyes wide and a smile plastered across his face. "Sissy said so, but I don't believe she has a ninja so I'm gonna find one first to prove that I'm cooler than her."

"Wha...?" Ulrich was half asleep in his bed when he had heard Odd come in so he had ignored his friend somewhat until he'd caught a few words that sounded like English instead of gibberish. "Ninjas? Why would normal people need ninjas?"

"Don't know, don't care. Just gotta be cooler than Sissy."

Ulrich opened his mouth just as Odd left the room. The brunette put his head back against the pillow and sank into his bed again, muttering, "Five more minutes. Then I'll tell him he's a moron."

Odd was running down the stairs when he stumbled into Jeremie and immediately started talking. "So I need a ninja and you obviously can't be my ninja because I need someone better than Sissy's ninja, so can you direct me to the nearest ninja retailer?"

Jeremie gave Odd an astranged look before pushing up his glasses and opening his mouth only to be cut off by Odd once more in another flurry of quick words.

"You know, I bet Yumi could find me a ninja." He looked thoughtfully to the ceiling. "I'll go find her." And then he was gone again.

Jeremie mumbled under his breath. Something about Odd being an idiot.

He was sprinting across the Kadic Academy campus. His eyes were alight with that glimmer of stupidity. "Gotta find Yumi, gotta find Yumi," he chanted as he raced, barreling into the bench that the ebony-haired girl sat on, a book open on her lap.

"What is it, Odd?" she asked, not even bothering to look up. She flipped another page.

"I need a ninja. Do you know where the nearest dojo is so I can adopt one? I need a ninja. Like, fast. Before Sissy sees me without one." His voice was breathy and faltering, but he was alive with the adrenaline of searching for a ninja.

"Ulrich," said Yumi, not bothering to look up. "Just go to him and he'll be your ninja."

"Sweet!" And he was gone again.

It took only five minutes and Odd was back up in his room harassing Ulrich to wake up and be a ninja. "NINJA NINJA NINJA NINJA NINJA NINJA-"

"Shut. Up." Ulrich had clamped a hand over Odd's mouth, shutting him up instantly. "I'll be your friggin' ninja if you let me sleep for ten more minutes."

Odd nodded vigorously. Then bolted over to the window and opened the shades, letting the sunlight rain in on his friend. "WE GOTTA SHOW SISSY THAT I HAVE A NINJA!"

A/N: haha. Review!
