DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN RANDY CUNNINGHAM 9TH GRADE NINJA

Priya: HI! It is National Ninja Day! I don't really know if this is a thing that is celebrated like a Birthday or Halloween (or something like that), or if it's celebrated in other countries.

I will, however, make this a holiday for the sake of my love for the show! So, expect there to be something like, "Happy Ninja Day" or yada-yada.

-This is made separate from my one-shot series because it's a special one.

-A few Randy x _ on this one.

Review Responses (Thank you! ^^):

(Kang's Jealous) KagamiPINKAgreste: Oh, they aren't? That's great, thank you for telling me! Yeah, Coach Green probably is an arsonist, and neither am I complaining ;) . And yep, I also think he 'borrowed' that 5 bucks from Randy. Also, thank you, I was planning on them going to Debbie's place instead, but that won't do.

(A Lullaby for a Ninja) SariSpy56 Returns: Thank you, I fangirled myself on that one. I just couldn't help but imagine how that would actually look if it was on the show. ^^;

(Kang's Jealous) SariSpy56 Returns: Thanks, and now that you mentioned it, Morgan and Randy probably might be related, just not really sure how. I think Morgan's hair is magenta or something?

(Kang's Jealous) Cristina Correa: Thank you so much! This series was actually inspired by Elicall's stories. And about your request, will do! I'll just finish one request from someone else and I'll go to yours ^^

Note: Happy Ninja Day! (Hehe-)

On a bright, sunny, beautiful Friday morning. Randy Cunningham was more than happy to wake up, get ready, go to school, and start the day. Why is our young, secret hero-freshman so excited, you may ask? Well, in Norrisville, every year (5th of December to be exact) they would make a holiday in the honor of the Ninja of Norrisville, and it just so happens that this tyrian-purple haired teen is the said protector of the city! Do you see why he is so hyped up now?

Randy had finished taking a bath and dressing himself up, and went down the stairs to greet his mother, Rosabelle Cunningham. As he went down the stairs, he could already smell the delicious breakfast his mom was making. He had a feverish smile on his face as he stepped, or rather jumped, on the last case of the stair.

"Good morning, mom!" Randy greeted her with exhilaration in his voice. Rosabelle looked at him, confused, but smiled sweetly at her child nevertheless. "Good morning, honey," she greeted back, "You're looking animated today," she said as she placed a plate full of pancakes down on the table. Randy looked at his mom in a confused way, "Animated?" he asked before dismissively shaking his head, "Nevermind that, today is going to be so bruce!" he exclaimed as he jumped up high before sitting down on a chair.

Rosabelle took a bottle of honey syrup, some butter, and two sporks to use as utensils for the pancakes. She squeezed the syrup on top of their breakfast, and used a butter knife to cut the butter in half. She spread the butter that was stuck on the butter knife on the warm, tasty, mouth-watering pancakes. Randy smelled their breakfast once again before taking the spork Rosabelle offered him and took a bite of their delicious meal.

"Holy cheese, mom!" Randy exclaimed, his eyes sparkled as he chewed on the pancakes, "This is the animosity of breakfast!" he said before gulping and putting a finger on his chin, showing a dumbfounded, thinking face, "Or was it definition?" he asked himself. Rosabelle giggled at her son's silliness, "It's definition, sweetie," she corrected him, earning an "Oh." from the boy as they continued to eat.

Randy got up from his chair, after he finished his meal, and headed up the stairs to grab his satchel. Once he did, he did a double-check on his room to make sure he didn't leave any window or electricity open or on, or if he had left something important that he needed to bring. "All good," he said cheerily, once he'd finished checking, and quickly went back downstairs.

He ran faster once he heard the doorbell ring. Knowing very well who it was, his smile grew wider and his eyes glistened. Randy went toward her mom first and pecked her on the cheek, and said, "See you again later, mom." before speeding off and opening the front door for Howard. Then they shouted "NINJA DAY!" with their fists raised up high before they left. Rosabelle was very confused by her son's excited behavior, but she brushed it off, knowing that today was their idol's day. A sincere smile slowly crept up on her face as she picked up the plates they ate on.

Randy and Howard were walking on the street, to reach Norrisville High, as they were talking about how BRUCE the day was going to be. "The only wonk thing about today is that there's school," Howard complained, "It's a holiday for ninja's sake!" he said, lifting his hands up in the air for emphasis. Randy shook his head, "Howard, Principal Slimovits already told us about today," he began in a scolding tone, "We're only going to school to celebrate MY day!" he said proudly, but quietly to not get any passerby's attention. "Oh." Howard said, extending the 'o' in the word, "Why didn't he say so?" he said sarcastically, earning an eye-roll from Randy.

Once they reached their destination, they opened the doors to enter the highschool of Norrisville. Randy and Howard saw posters, decorations, and even balloons. All themed as the Norrisville Ninja. Randy couldn't help but smile, and so did Howard. "Cunningham, we are going to have the best day of the year!" he said, "I can't wait to get free stuff from strangers because of you," he said, pointing a finger at Randy. Randy gave him a blunt look and shoved his finger away, "Howard, we already learned not to use the ninja as a way of getting free things," he said in a quoting way as they neared their lockers.

Howard groaned as they put their non-needed belongings in their lockers, "Aw, but it's Ninja Day!" he remarked. Randy put a finger on his chin, and a thinking face, "Well, I guess," he said, "Fine, but we won't abuse it or what happened last time will happen again," he added when he saw Howard's face lit up. "Aw, yeah, this is going to be the brucest day ever!" he exclaimed.

They continued walking to the gym for the occasion to start as they continued their ridiculous chatter. Unknown to them, the 2nd shoobiest person in Norrisville was raging in anger.

McFist was destroying every single ninja-themed decoration the robo-apes put inside his office. The two robo-apes, that were looking at their boss having a fit, glanced at each other as they shrugged. "But sir," one of the three robo-apes, that were there, began saying in a robotic voice, "We just finished decorating this place," the robo-ape said. McFist looked at the robot with a glare that can instantly get you fired, but instead of the robo-ape getting "fired", McFist threw it out of the windowpane, shattering the window. The two other robots backed away from their boss as the said man yelled in anger.

"Stupid day!" A laptop was thrown.

"Stupid Ninja!" An aquarium, with waterproof fish-bots, was destroyed.

"Stupid Ninja Day!" Glasses that Viceroy owned were shattered on the floor.

Wait, what?

Viceroy came inside the office to see what all the noise, and why there was a falling robo-ape outside, was about. "Sir, you might want to calm down," Viceroy said, pulling out a new pair of glasses that was inside his coat, "What's got you irascible?" he asked as he cleaned his new glasses with a clean cloth. McFist looked at him with hatred, "Viceroy," McFist said with a dry expression, "DO YOU KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS!?" he yelled at his employee. Viceroy hummed in thought, "Is it your brother, Terry, trying to take over Whoopee World again?" he asked with slight sarcasm on his voice. Of course Viceroy knew what day it was.

McFist could feel his right eye twitch, "It's Ninja Day, Viceroy!" he exclaimed in anger, "NINJA DAY! Why is there a day for him and not for me!?" McFist said in an out-rage tone. "Oh, I don't know," Viceroy said sarcastically, "Probably because he's been protecting this town for 800 years?" he said matter-of-factly. McFist slammed his robotic hand on his table, "I hate that darn ninja," he growled. "Viceroy, I want you to make me a machine," said McFist, slightly calmer. Viceroy raised an eyebrow, "Why? With the Sorcerer gone, there's no need to make one," explained Viceroy. "JUST SHUT YOUR TRAP AND DO YOUR JOB!" McFist yelled at Viceroy suddenly, actually making the scientist flinch.

Viceroy sighed, "Yes, sir," he said as he left to go to his lab. McFist watched the mad scientist leave. He, then, went to sit on his office chair. "I've had enough of you, ninja," McFist darkly said, "And this time, I will destroy you."

A few hours after the McFist-Fit incident,

Randy and Howard were now in their English class. Mr. Bannister told the class to make a 800-word paragraph for the ninja. Pretty big assignment, right? Both Randy and Howard, and almost the rest of the class, were struggling to make said assignment, and since they only had an hour and a half to do it, you could say it was impossible for them. "This is so wonk," Randy whispered to himself, "I didn't want to make a paragraph about me," he whined as he continued to write nonsense on his paper.

He wrote stuff like, "The ninja is so bruce." or "He saves everyone, everyday." and a lot more kind words to himself. He had to admit, it was nice that even the teachers wanted to say something nice (more like let their students suffer by making an assignment) to him, or rather his secret ego, but it was also wonk that he had to join the class in writing this schoolwork rubbish. Just as he was about to give up on trying to figure out what to say to himself without revealing any secrets, the Nomicon glowed. He was about to pull it out and hide it in his English textbook, when a robotic, inhuman roar was heard.

"What the juice?" asked Randy as he stood up and looked over the window to see what was going on, and so did everyone else. A robot, that had a snake's head and a scorpion's below and tail, that Randy has never seen, let alone fought, before was crashing the parking lot of the school. "Again I ask, what the juice!?" Randy asked in a scream as he saw a wheel of a car rolling towards the class. "Everyone duck!" Randy heard Howard yell. Fortunately, everyone ducked just in time as it shattered the windowpane of the classroom. Everyone screamed in fear. "Alright, I've got your back, bud," Howard said, giving the secret hero a thumbs up. Randy nodded his head as he ran out of the class without anyone noticing him.

Randy sped off as fast as his lanky legs could take him. He got out of the school and hid under a bush. He took out a red and black cloth that was inside his hoodie, put it on his head, and transformed into the Norrisville Ninja.

Everyone got out of the school to see the madness that was happening outside. The robot just broke two cars (one was someone's car and the other was the principal's car), "I just got the tires changed!" cried Principal Slimovits. Howard looked around, "Where are you, ninja?!" Howard whispered as he gritted his teeth. Then a loud, "SMOKE BOMB" was heard not so far away.

Randy, in the ninja suit, was seen balancing himself on top of a lamp-post without any trouble. Once he had made his appearance, the crowd of students and teachers cheered aloud. Multiple people greeted the ninja "Happy Ninja Day!" which he was glad of. He leaped up high and did a flip before landing on the grassy floor. "Alright, McFist," he said to himself so no one can hear, "Can't a ninja take a break from you and your robots?" he said jokingly as he pulled out his sword from his suit. "What do you say we cut this short so I can enjoy this day?" he said as he did a battle stance. "Hehe, cut this short," Bucky, a band geek, said, "Sword jokes zing!"

Randy paid no attention to the band geek and charged at the robotic-snake-io. He took out an ice ball from his suit and threw it on the robot's legs, making the robot's lower limbs frozen. "Man, McFist, this is just too easy," the ninja said in a boastful way, even so, the crowd cheered at their protector. "Hey ninja!" Randy heard a yell from a student. He turned to see that it was Bash, "Give that robot a good wet!" the junior yelled as he threw punches in the air. Howard nodded his head, "Yeah, give that robot a one-punch!" he said. Randy hummed in thought, "Hm, I have a better idea," he said as he made a few poses. "Ninja hydro-hand!" he said as a giant hand, that was made of water, shot out of his palms and hit the robot.

The robot started to malfunction and fell on the floor. When everyone thought the robot was defeated, they cheered and chanted "Ninja" over and over. Randy looked at Howard, who had his thumb up, he gave him a thumbs up back with a smile, though it was not visible. Suddenly, the robot roared an inhuman roar and started haywiring. The ninja, and the crowd, looked back at the robot in shock. The robot charged at the ninja faster than the speed of a blink. Before Randy could register what happened, he felt a sharp sting on his side and heard an explosion. The whole crowd gasped in terror. Randy felt something liquid dripping as he fell on his knees, his vision went all fuzzy before he blacked out.

It all happened so fast. Howard didn't, no, couldn't move nor speak. The robo-snake-io haywired and stabbed the ninja on his side before his best friend could dodge it. There was a puddle of blood where the ninja was unconscious. After Howard had realized what had actually happened, he started to run toward his best friend. A few of the students followed him such as: Heidi (who was recording the whole thing live), Debbie, Rachel, Theresa, Bash, and Julian. Everything went downhill from there, Howard tried to hear his bffr's pulse. He relaxed a bit to know he was still alive because he can still hear it, but it was slowing down. "H-Hang in there, buddy," Howard said in a reassuring way to assure the students and himself that he will be okay. He had to be okay.

There was so much blood everywhere that it was terrifying. Rachel looked at the hero's wound, "H-How do we stop him from bleeding?!" she worriedly asked. Heidi stepped in to see, "Does anyone have a clean cloth or towel to block the wound?!" she asked in a shout, even she was scared. No one answered, saying that no one had any. Howard was having mixed feelings of what's happening. He was still holding Randy's wrist on his ear to hear his pulse, still there, and still slow. He had a mixture of fear, confusion, and anger, everything you would need to be stank. It was fortunate that the Sorcerer wasn't here, or else, everyone would be turned into monsters.

"Wonk!" Howard exclaimed in frustration, "How come no one has a honking towel?!" he said, throwing his fear and anger at the people around him. The red liquid kept on growing, and everyone was fearing the worst. "We need to call an ambulance!" Debbie suggested as she pulled out her phone and was about to call 911, when Howard stopped her. "No! They would know who he is!" he said in a pleading way. "Well, what do you want to happen to him?!" Debbie asked in frustration of the situation, "Die on this spot!?" she asked without thinking.

Oh boy, she went a little too far on that. Not only did Debbie ask Howard if he wanted the ninja to die on this spot for not calling the ambulance, but she asked him if he wanted his best friend to die in front of him. Howard clenched his hands into a fist, eyes starting to water, "Look, Debbie," he said in a growl. Everyone, especially Debbie, was shocked by his sudden seriousness. "If you want to scold me about what I know is right or not, then think of what you say first," he said before a tear slowly dropped. He looked at Randy and felt hopeless, that's when he remembered his mask, "Sorry about this, bud," he said before he took off the ninja's mask.

A bright, red light shined as the ribbons that were wrapped on the ninja disappeared. Everyone, and not just the group of people around the ninja but everyone, gasped in shock. It was a shocker to see that the 800-year-old Ninja of Norrisville… was only a kid, a freshman. Howard ignored the gasps and put Randy's mask on the wound and put pressure into it. He looked up to see everyone around them were just standing, "Well, what are you shoobs standing there for!?" he angrily asked, making the group wince, "Call the wonking ambulance or some wonking thing!" he ordered. Debbie didn't hesitate to do what he told them to do. She dialed 911.

"Hello!?"

At McFist Industries, both McFist and Viceroy had paled faces as they watched the ninja, on the floor and in the middle of a puddle of his own blood, on a live video. "The ninja…" McFist trailed off, "Was just a kid," he finished his boss's sentence. Both had a guilty feeling in the pit of their stomachs. All this time, they have been sending robots, threats, and basically kidnapping a random student to destroy a kid!? They didn't even know it was a kid, how could they? Even so, they were slowly feeling more and more guilty.

What they didn't know, is that it wasn't entirely their fault. The robot started to haywire and stabbed the ninja. "Hannibal," Viceroy said, "What are we going to do with this situation!?" he asked in a panic. McFist scratched the back of his head, "I don't know!?" he shouted as loud as the scientist did, "That kid knows we're no good! He could frame us!" he said without thinking.

Viceroy only blinked at his boss in disbelief, "SIR!" he exclaimed, making McFist flinch, "There is a kid that is about to die due to blood loss, and you care about not being known as evil!?" he shouted in anger. He couldn't believe how selfish McFist was. Okay, that was a lie, he knows McFist was selfish, he just didn't know he could be this selfish to let a teenager die. He turned away to the direction of the doorway and began leaving. "Where are you going!?" McFist yelled. Viceroy stopped at the doorway, and said, "I'm going to check if that kid is alright," and left.

Back at the school, an ambulance came as soon as they heard a student was stabbed. It was fortunate that no one but the school, and McFist Industries, saw the live Heidi did and that the stabbed teen was actually the ninja. The truck instantly took Randy to the ambulance as Howard hid the ninja mask, that was covered in blood, in his jacket. School was cancelled by the Principal and everyone was too shocked to celebrate the cancellation of classes.

One of the doctor's asked if the group wanted to follow, they all agreed and hopped on the truck. It was understandable that everyone had questions, but they knew that Howard wasn't in the mood for them right now, so they'll get their answers later. Once they reached the hospital, they immediately sent the tyrian purple-haired teen inside the E.R. The group waited in the waiting room.

A few hours later, Howard explained to the group about everything and began to pace back and forth, the girls were checking the comments of Heidi's live video, and Bash and Julian were just sleeping. Suddenly, they heard an "Ahem" from the waiting room door. They looked over to the person, it was Viceroy. Howard did a 5-second gasp, but his shock quickly turned into anger. "You!" he yelled as he pointed a finger at the scientist, gaining attention to the group and a few other people. He attempted to attack the mad scientist, but the group tackled him before he could try.

"Howard, what are you thinking?!" asked Heidi. Howard freed himself from the group, "Bold of you to come here," Howard growled, "What? Gonna send another robot to attack Cunningham?" he asked in a monotone. The room went silent. What was Howard talking about? This is the guy that sends robots at school? Those were the questions the group were interrogating themselves. Viceroy sighed, "I didn't want that to happen, Weinerman," he said, "My old boss, McFist, wanted a robot that can destroy the ninja, I did as I was told but I knew the ninja would still defeat it," he explained as he gained shocked faces from the group and a cold glare from Howard, "What I didn't know is that it would malfunction and… the incident part," he said, trying to pick the right words.

"Woah, woah, woah," Debbie cut, "Did you say McFist wanted you to send a robot to destroy Randy!?" "We didn't know the ninja was a kid, we thought he was 800 years old," Viceroy explained. Howard scoffed, "Everyone did," he said with a dull expression, still glaring daggers at Viceroy. Viceroy sighed, "Look, I quit being McFist's head scientist because I just found out how selfish he is, and I just wanted to say that I apologize, and I hope that Cunningham kid would be okay," he apologized with a guilty expression. Howard had to admit, he was slowly forgiving Willem, but saying sorry won't tell if Randy was okay or not. "I'll tell that to Cunningham if he wakes up," Howard said as he turned away. Viceroy nodded, "Will do," he said in a serious tone, "I'll get going for now," and with that said, he left the waiting room.

The group looked at Howard, "Don't ask," he said, and everyone nodded quickly.

Somewhere in a place, Randy opened his eyes. "What the juice? Am I in the Nomicon?" Randy asked as he looked around, it looked exactly like he was in the ancient book of ninja wisdom, except he doesn't remember going inside. Suddenly, words formed into a sentence on the sky,

"When the Ninja gets injured, he must rise up again."

What does that mean? Did he get hurt or something? Why and how did he get- oh. That was the liquid feeling he felt before he blacked out. He was probably stabbed by the robot or something. "But wait, am I alive?" he asked, a bit of panic in his voice. "You are well alive, ninja," a voice from behind him said. Randy turned around to see First Ninja and Plop Plop. Randy sighed in relief, "Oh, thank cheese," he said before realizing something, "Wait, so how am I here? I don't remember shloomping in the Nomicon," he asked as he looked up at the sky. First Ninja shook his head, "This is just a long distance dream connection, ninja," First Ninja explained. "Yeah, like that time with the powerball and you sleepwalked half of Norrisville," Plop Plop added. "I- wait, how do you know about that?" Randy asked.

First Ninja dismissively waved his hands, "Enough conversing for now," he said, "You must return to your consciousness before your friends and the school begins to panic," he said as Plop Plop added, "Yeah, we don't want them thinking the ninja's dead." "Wait, wait. They know I'm the ninj-AAAAAAAAAAAA!" he was about to ask when he suddenly felt the floor shake violently, split in half, and fell.

Randy woke up and heard a bunch of gasps once he did. "Cunningham!" Howard yelled, "Sweet cheese, you're alive!" said Howard as his eyes started to water again. Randy noticed the few students of their school in a room that he assumed was a hospital room. Howard then cleared his throat, rubbing his eyes, "Also, sorry, but I kinda revealed your secret to the whole school," he said, "Oh, and to McFist and Viceroy."

Randy's eyes widened at that, he sprung up, "WHAT!?" he yelled. Big mistake, he felt a sharp pain on his side, he yelped in surprise. "What the juice?! That hurt!" he screamed. "Randy, just lay down," Rachel said, putting a hand on Randy's. Randy laid back down as Howard continued, "But don't worry, Viceroy quit being McFist's head scientist or something, and maybe we can use the Nomicon to erase everyone in school's memories," Howard said with hope as he took out the Ninja Nomicon from Randy's bag. Randy gave Howard a deapanned look, "You told them about the Nomicon too, didn't you?" he asked as Howard nervously scratched the back of his neck.

The Nomicon slowly glowed, "Tell that book I had to, it's either that or let you die," Howard reasoned as he passed the book to Randy, "Which I will not choose the 2nd one," he said quickly. Randy chuckled as he opened the book, he fell unconscious again. Obviously, the group went wide-eyed, "Andy!?" said Heidi in shock and worry. Howard dismissively shook his hands, "This happens all the time, he'll get back," Howard explained as his tone went back to his usual voice.

A few minutes later, Randy woke up again. "So, what did it say?" Howard asked, "It said, "When the Ninja gets injured, he must rise up again." Randy quoted. Howard raised an eyebrow, "What does that mean?" "I think it means when Randy got hurt, he had to stay strong and rise up for us again," Theresa explained. Randy nodded in approval of Theresa's theory, "The Nomicon also said I have to mind-wipe everyone at school," Randy sighed, "Man, I'm going to be erasing a WHOLE lot of memories," he said. "Wait, do you also have to erase our memories?" Rachel doubted. "The Nomicon told me that it would be okay if none of you get mind-wiped as long as you'll stay out of harm's way," Randy said with a smile, earning two blushes from two girls.

"Well, we'll see you tomorrow then," Bash said as he dragged a sleepy Julian, who was on the floor, away. The rest of the group followed while Howard stayed, "I'll come in a second," he said, gaining nods from the others. "Just a heads-up for tomorrow, Cunningham," Howard said, Randy raised an eyebrow, "Remember when I said that today would be the brucest day ever? Well, it didn't turn as bruce as I hoped it would, so maybe tomorrow would be brucer," he said as he headed off.

Randy thought about what Howard said. What did he mean by that? Well, whatever it was, he'll know tomorrow, right now, he'll just nap away.

The next day, Randy was discharged from the hospital. It wasn't a shock that he healed fast, Art of Healing was very helpful. Once he got to the school, however, he felt his jaw drop on the floor. Even though Ninja Day was supposedly yesterday, he was met with ninja-themed decorations at the school. The only difference is, he was shown with more respect, which wasn't a shocker because Howard had already explained to him about the whole "school knowing he's the ninja".

Once he entered the lobby room of the school, he saw a massive statue of him, in the ninja suit, with a small carved letter that was on some sort of pedestal,

"Randy Cunningham, Ninja of Norrisville,"

Randy read what was on the pedestal. Randy smiled as Howard walked beside him, "Told you today would be the cheese," Howard said, "Too bad you have to erase all of this from everyone except the group," he mentioned. Randy smiled at him, "You're right, bud," Randy said, "Today is the brucest day ever."

Priya: Didn't know this would be a bit darker, did you (You probably did, I mean, it says h/c on the genre and Rated T so…)?

Sorry if it is a bit cringe-y (it got cringe-y on the H/C scenes, I apologize for that XD) and if the characters are OOC, first time writing a story about the genre H/C, and if you read my profile, you would know I'm terrible at making these.

I thank you for taking the time to read this one-shot, my longest one yet!

I should start working on different stories other than RC9GN, but I can't help it! Hehe- Also, it's like, 12 AM right now, I really wanted to publish this at the exact time ^^

(I kinda want to continue this, but I'll let you guys decide on that-)

And to everyone a "Happy Ninja Day!" and "Advance Merry Christmas!"
