DISCLAIMER: I don't own any of the characters
"What?" Ron and Kim asked confused.
"I cannot say anymore," Yori said seriously. "I have already said too much."
"How about we pick it up in the morning?" Kim asked warily. "Ron's parents are usually gone all day, so we'll be able to talk without anyone hearing us."
"That would be most…agreeable," Yori agreed.
"Unfortunately, we don't have any other extra rooms in the house." Ron smiled apologetically. "But, you're welcome to the tree house down the street."
"That is fine," Yori assured her friend. "I shall speak to you in the morning."
Yori took a few steps back and next thing Kim and Ron noticed was that she just disappeared. The two shrugged it off to a ninja thing and headed inside to continue where they left off…
Yori awoke near eight o'clock (the longest she ever slept) and headed back to the Stoppable house with great care not to be seen.
Kim fidgeted anxiously; whatever it was Yori had to say it was obviously very serious.
The two had woken up near seven o'clock and after their usual five minute make-out session, the two headed downstairs. That's where the two found themselves sitting at the dining room table too nervous to eat their breakfast.
Only Hana, who was playing with Rufus from her highchair, seemed completely at ease this morning.
The two nearly jumped out of their skins when Yori jumped out of a bush and through the window.
"So, what's going on Yori?" Ron asked as he relaxed his fighting stance and slumped back in his chair. Kim did the same thing though she looked much more embarrassed than Ron did.
"Well…First of all Stoppable-san, I wish to apologize," Yori said apologetically.
"For what now?" Ron asked scrunching his eyebrows in confusion.
"I am sorry for all of the worry about your current 'college sitch' as you and Possible-san put it. You see it was Yamanouchi that stopped you from receiving your admittance letters."
"WHAT?" Kim screamed in furious shock as Ron stared at Yori in dumbfounded confusion. "Why would you do that?"
"How do I explain this properly?" Yori muttered to herself nervously. "The thing is Possible-san…We, as in Sensei and Yamanouchi, wished for Stoppable-san to hear a different invitation before choosing a college."
"And…And, what would that be?" Ron asked quietly.
"I wish to invite you to come and study the way of Ninjutsu at Yamanouchi…And, I would also like to extend the invitation to you as well Possible-san," Yori explained.
"Me too?" Kim asked surprised, but interested.
"Indeed, I believe it most wise to invite someone of the second level to come join us."
"What do you mean 'second level'?" Ron asked.
"At Yamanouchi, there are six levels of warriors in all. First there are students like you were when you visited us for the first time. Second are the fighters which Possible-san and you as well Stoppable-san fall under, but only for unarmed combat. Third are the captains, the fourth are the Special Forces and the fifth are the masters. The final and strongest level is the headmaster of the school."
"We'll have to think about it, right KP?" Ron asked his girl and she nodded in agreement.
"In any case, I should also let you know that if do agree to join us then Hana-chan must come as well," Yori informed them.
"I-I see…There is no way Hana could st—"
BOOM
The front door blasted open and two ninjas burst into the room.
"Was I followed?" Yori asked herself in surprise, but found she did not have time to contemplate the turn of events as one of the ninjas ran towards her. Out of reflex, she grabbed a shuriken from her pouch and threw it at the first ninja.
The ninja jumped back in surprise as the shuriken missed him by a mere centimeter. "What's a Yamanouchi kunoichi doing here?" The ninja asked shocked.
"It seems we were expected," a second ninja stated with narrow eyes.
As the trio moved to intercept, two other ninjas snuck through the window and grabbed Hana. Kim jumped toward the second ninja with a dive kick only for the ninja to do a handstand and catch her foot with his. She was caught off guard and the ninja took advantage of it to kick her off.
She recovered in time to grab hold of the chandelier, and this had the fortunate side effect of seeing the potential kidnappers of Hana. Absolutely steamed, she released her hold and stood in their way.
"Move it girl or I'll kill you," the third ninja said dangerously and pulled out a kunai.
"Like hell I will!" Kim retorted throwing a punch at the ninja. The ninja fell back stunned and Kim rushed to intercept the final and fourth ninja only for her to feel a sharp pain in her side. The third ninja had recovered faster than she had anticipated and punched her in the side. He was much, much stronger than she thought and sent her flying all the way across the room.
He dived after her with his kunai drawn ready to finish her off when he felt the most peculiar feeling. It was as if he wasn't falling down; it was like he was stuck in midair.
It took only a moment for him to realize it wasn't just a feeling, but was the actual truth. Just a foot above his target he had completely stopped falling.
Ron was standing before him with a blue aura and his eyes closed in anger. Slowly he opened his eyes and the ninja could only gasp at the menacing look in them. "DO. NOT. TOUCH. HER!" Ron yelled in primordial fury.
In the blink of an eye he vanished and reappeared a millimeter in front of the third ninja. The man didn't even have time to contemplate the change when he felt a punch with the strength of a small freight train punch him straight through the wall.
The other ninja froze in complete shock which was unfortunate for it gave Yori and Kim the split second needed to knock them out. The only one left was the one holding Hana and he could only stare in complete terror.
"It…It can't be…" The ninja stuttered.
"Put. Her. Down," Ron commanded and he did so hoping to be given mercy.
His plan did not work out for the second he did so Ron smashed the man straight into the wall. He slid to the ground unconscious.
"That's the last of them, Yori said breathlessly.
"Who…Who were th-they?" Kim asked as she painfully held her side.
"My parents won't like this," Ron said panicky as he looked at all of the damage done to the dining room.
"They were ninjas from another school probably," Yori said as she examined the bodies and ignored Ron's worries. "We're very lucky these warriors were not aware of me or Stoppable-san as the Monkey Master."
"So, they were after something else than us," Kim stated perplexed.
"Yes," Yori agreed before she took some of the shuriken from one of the ninjas. "Their bodies need to be cleaned up and clothes stripped. No matter what, they cannot be identified as ninjas."
Ron and Kim nodded and gathered the bodies or at least they would have gathered them off if one wasn't missing. The third ninja had disappeared much to Yori's horror.
In a dark place, the escaped ninja landed painfully in front of a dark figure. "M-Master, I'm the only one that was able to return…The mission was a failure," the ninja stuttered fearfully. "But, I didn't come back empty handed! I've gotten important information!"
"It better be or you'll regret coming back," the master said calmly.
"We…We found the Monkey M-Master and found a…a weakness," the ninja squeaked.
"I see…" The man said without so much of an inclination of what he thought of the news. "Leave my sight now."
The ninja knew better than to hesitate on such a simple order and disappeared from the large dark room.
"It seems the time of the Second Ninja War is approaching," the master said stoically.
