Radical Transformation
Darkness settled around the warehouse, but through the blackness, two figures could be seen slipping in and out of the shadows. They glanced around every so often to check the coast was clear, then they disappeared into the old building, where they reported straight down to the lower levels of the building, to their Master.
The Master, who was waiting silently in the shadowed depths of the basement with his highest Ninja of the clan, Tatsu, stepped forward, obvious by his silence that he was waiting to hear what his Foot had to say.
They both bowed and the taller of the two disguised men stepped half a foot forward.
"We have been looking, as you wished," he said. "And our scouts noticed a boy the same as the description that was given. But, there are four exact same kids, and are located in the local high school."
He watched as the large, shadowed Master exhaled slowly. Then he spoke in his rough, deep voice:
"It is them, then. They have chosen to hide in the large numbers of the school."
He paced up and down in front of the two men, his cloak flowed windless-like behind him. Then he stopped, facing Tatsu.
"They have taken the rat out of the sewers as well. And we are now not the only ones looking for the four identical teenagers . . . the police have ordered that they be brought in. Foolish as they were, seen by the police when rescuing the damn rat. It is most likely at the reporter's home. Too easy to deal with first." He paused. "They will not have their weapons in school, and are much easier targets now they are preoccupied with work. It will have to be in that time that we act. And take anyone down who gets in the way. Send one of the younger members of my clan in when the perfect times arrives. Tell him to cause a distraction . . . It will be all we need to get them . . .
Sorry I changed it around a bit (a lot). But I thought this bit should have a chapter of its own. I usually don't like writing such small chapters, but this had to go here. Thanks for the reviews!
