Hey guys! Here is the next chapter! Thanks for your patience!
Hope you enjoy this surprise!
I jolt upright with a start. I was sweating and breathing really hard. I close my eyes and try to calm myself. But the dream felt so real. My breathing slowed and I let out my breath. I open my eyes and look at where I am. 'I have never been here before…It seems like it is olden Japanese make.' I look down at my body; I am in a bed and am not invisible anymore. The bed was larger than it needed to be and had cherry blossoms on the sheets. The room itself was dark in color, very different from the bed; the walls were of forest green, as well as the floorboards were dark brown wood.
Then, there was a knock on the door. I stand up, moving the sheets out of my way, and realize I was in a new full body ninja suit. I continue to the door, and open it. There, in the doorway, was Hun. I stare at him before narrowing my eyes. "What do you want?"
Hun chuckles, "The Master is awaiting your presences."
"Who is this…Master?" Then I think of my dream, "Wait…Is he the Shredder?" Hun nods and turns around to walk down the hallway. 'Man, maybe Hun is an ok guy…'
I close the door, turn around and walk towards my…wardrobe. The wardrobe is of general size and shape. I open it carefully, but there is no need. All there is in the wardrobe is clothes. There were colorful kimonos, both tight and loose ninja suits, shrunken, smoke pellets, and even a pair of Neko-te. I gasp at the array. 'Now this is a ninja's heaven.' I put a belt of shrunken, smoke pellets, and even the Neko-te, wrapped in cloth, around my waist. I quickly choose a tight ninja suit with a sky blue kimono, with pink cherry blossoms on it, on top. Then I put my silver hair in as much of a neat bun as I could. It was not the best by any comparison. Then I rush out to the door, slipping on my slippers just as another knock comes on the door. I open it and gasp with eyes round as saucers. I see a person I never thought I would see again. There in the doorway stood a young man of tall statue. His skin is a dark tan that matches with his dark chocolate hair and, still, liquid brown eyes. It was a man I had never seen, but yet knew. It was Chi.
"Hello, Kameko," Chi says with the smoothness I had forgotten.
"Hi…Chi," I reply, I am in such a daze, "What…what are you doing here?" I walk out of the door closing it behind me.
"It is a long story…I will tell you the quick parts while we walk to the Master." He gives me a quick hug. He seemed so happy, but all I could remember was Leatherheads hug that one night…
I quickly but in, "You work with the Shredder as well as Hun?" I had to know if this was the same master.
"Yes it is," Chis puts a hand on my shoulder as we continue to walk. Then he takes it back down as he tells me his story. Chi starts after we were separated. I gasp on occasion during his story. The biggest was how he found the Master. "You see, I was looking for you, my dear," My heart fluttered as I heard Chi talking like that, but I didn't say a word. He continued on, "I ran into some ninja, the Foot ninja actually, but I did not know who they were at the time. I fought them all off." He smiles at that turning to me, I grin back. "After I had beaten them, out from behind a massive pine tree came the Master. He talked to me about how I was powerful to be able to do that." Chi seemed to glow at that. "I said that I wanted to find the girl of my life. Master said that if I agreed to help him, then we would be together." As he finished, Chi stopped in front of a massive set of wooden doors.
"Wow, the Master really must be powerful," I exclaim as the doors open from the inside. As the doors open, we walk together into a long hallway. Something about it felt…wrong.
Chi seemed to notice my discomfort, "This hall is ringed with many booby traps. I do not know if they are set on or off…" Chi puts his hand on the base of his neck. "But, if it was the same for me, they would be on and ready. It is a challenge to see if you have what it takes." With that, he takes off. He bounded across the hall with incredible speed. He would jump on the walls and then to the celling before landing on the floor on the opposite side of the hallway.
I took a deep breath and did my best to copy him. But at the last second, it seemed that all of the traps were set off. There were large swinging axes and blades coming down from the ceiling. They were all over the place! But I made through them with ease.
As I get past the last one, I slow to a walk. Big mistake. I feel my foot go down, and then the floor opened up to wide gap filled with spikes. I turn back a bit, and take off running and jumped over the gap. My feet barely made it. Chi then came up to me and hugged me. Before we separated, though, he gave me a kiss. It was not one of those long ones on the lips. This was a quick one on the check. I gasp at the touch; I had never been kissed before. Chi then smiled as he gripped my hand and lead me to the Master. Another set of wooden doors open and we stepped into a large room that looked like a throne room.
"Welcome to your new home, Kameko," the Shredders voice carried across the room. Then he started laughing as we walked up to him.
