'What do you mean you're not coming back Papa?"

As a young red-head boy chased what seems to be his father, the man replied back, 'I'm sorry Raphael."

As the man entered a limousine, he left the young boy by himself. He was now alone, but to his surprise, he found a coin with a weird symbol on it that his father had left behind.

As Raphael woke up, he began to think to himself, 'Father why did you leave and what are you up to?'

He was now dressed in his usual attire, however he noticed that something was missing, specifically his best friend, Fondue.

As the young red-head looked around, he saw a letter on the front porch, 'There is a building in the mountains where ninjas go to train. Your first task is to infiltrate the building and rescue your friend and use any means of entering and escaping.'

With that, Phantom R left the building to find where friend is located, however he did not notice the person standing in a tree.

"It seems he changed his appearance." said a familiar white-haired ninja as she left the scene

It took Phantom R a while, however he was able to find the location that was described to him in the letter and it was brim full of ninjas patrolling the area.

"I can get through easily, I have snuck into the Louvre multiple times and never been caught. You saved me, and now I'm repaying the favor back. It's ShowTime and Phantom R is on the scene!

Phantom R didn't wait and ran towards the building. He had times were he thought he was going to be fought, however luckily for him, there was a pile of snow that he hid behind to avoid being detected.

It took him a while, however he finally made it in without being detected by any of the guards, and he could hear the cry of a dog and in an instant knew who is was. He was about to reunite with his best friend, when suddenly he saw a girl that seems younger than him with brown pigtail hair approach Fondue. "You are such a cute doggie! I will make you my pet!"

Fondue wasn't found of that idea being that he could never forget Raphael, however he saw his master hiding in a corner which made Fondue bark with joy. This however made the young girl get the wrong idea. "Yay! Now what to name you and what would you eat? Pancakes? Muffin?"

As the young girl continued to name snacks, Phantom R decided to give his idea on what to name the dog, "I say his name should be Fondue." Hearing that, the girl was surprised to see the mysterious man while the 'stray' dog ran up to him.

"Hey you leave that doggie alone! He's mine!" Hearing what the girl yelled, Phantom R smiled and said to her, "Willing to make a little wager?" As the girl was scared what Phantom R would suggest, he said, "Whoever can train this dog better get to keep him."

She nodded her head in response to his challenge, however she asked him for his name. "I am called Phantom R, and you are?"

"My name is Minori and I will taking this doggie with me! Now shake!" As she yelled at the 'stray' dog, he made no response. "Roll over! Play dead!" However the dog still made no response to the girl's commands.

"My turn." As Phantom R walked up to the dog, he yelled at it, "Leg down!" In a second, the dog sat down. "1, 2, pose!" As the dog heard Phantom R commands, he spun around before posing. "High, five!" Once more the dog responded to Phantom R's command, this time jumping up when he heard five.

"Looks like I win, come on Fondue!" As the two walked away, with Fondue happily barking that he was reunited with his master, Phantom R had walked into a trap and was now hanging from a tree branch.

"Looks like I got careless." With his statement said, an alarm had went off, which in turn alarmed the roaming guards of Phantom R's presence. "The intruder is in here! Capture him at once!" One of the ninjas had yelled at the others.

Things looked helpless for Phantom R and with defeat, he said, "Looks like this how I finally get caught." And as ninjas surrounded the captured thief, Fondue had step in to protect his master from being captured.

"Don't be a hero Fondue!" However as a ninja charged towards Fondue, he was able to not only able to dodge her attack, but countered back twice as hard. "Way to go Fondue!" Phantom R yelled at his partner as he took down waves of ninjas by himself.

During the chaos, Phantom R was able to cut himself free from the branch and was now back on the floor. However the second he was free, four more female ninjas had appeared before him. One had grayish hair and a bow tied to the back of her hair. Another had a bowl-cut and blue-hair. One had blonde hair with red eyes and had a phone in her hands. And the last one was wearing a mask for whatever reason.

"What have you done to Minori?!" The blue-haired girl yelled at Phantom R. He turned around to see her crying for two reasons. One she had lost Fondue to Phantom R, the second being Fondue accidentally bit Minori on the arm and was crying from the pain. "In the name that all is good, we will stop you and make you pay for what you done!" the gray-haired girl yelled at him.

Hearing this, Fondue was ready to fight once more, but was stopped by his master. "You need to know when to pick your fights Fondue." With that, Phantom R had jumped on a lamp hanging from the wall. "Show's over folks!" With that, Phantom R continued to jump upwards on to other lamps like a stairway, with his best friend right behind them.

It no time, the pair had escaped the ninja infested building and went back 'home' for the day. "Boy Fondue was that something Today. Only time can tell what we have to do next." Raphael said to his companion, with his response was him whining. "You know what Fondue? Let's go get you a treat. You deserve it and I can think nothing better for my best-friend." As Raphael petted Fondue on the head, he barked with joy.

The two had spent outside a while together looking around the different areas, one being a high-school. And as they walked, Raphael couldn't help but buy Fondue any meat he wanted. That day, the two became even closer and were willing to protect the other no matter the cost. As Raphael returned home, he did not notice the presence of a gray-haired ninja hiding in an alley. "For right now I'll let him be. But I know there's a reason why he showed up or he would be that skilled and escape from justice.

AN: So I lied. I kinda want to add a few more chapters before returning back to my other stories. Also the first few weeks of school aren't bad, so I have more time to write my stories. I will add a few more chapters before stopping once more. Until then, I will see all in the next one.
