Chapter 7: The Tournement Begins!

"Attention all tournement partciepents," came a voice over the loud speakers, "Weapon and equipment check in will be at 12:00 noon today. Thank you!"

"Why do they announce that soooooooo early?" I groaned.

"Brian, its 8:30." stated the Derfer.

"And your point is...?"

"Auugh, never mind, get up and get dressed."

Sweet! I thought, I get to put on ,y special shinobi outfit. I thought as I pulled on some camo pants with atleast twenty pockets, a black long sleeved shirt with the senenken on it, a silver vest, and tied my headband on my head sideways. "How do I look?"

"Cool."

"Come on, lets go get some breakfast!"

Downstairs

"Morning Annie, Terra." said a cheerful Derfer.

"Why so happy?" asked Annie.

"Because today is the first day of the tournement."

As they were all talking I started stuffing my face with every bit of food I could.

"That guy was right, we are the youngst here." stated a worried looking Terra.

"So," I said, my mouth still full, "That just means it will be all the more special when one of us wins."

"Yeah," agreed Annie.

"Well," I said, my mouth finally empty, "Lets train."

Training Grounds

"OK, guys look what I cand do." I said as I began to do hand signs. Phet Phet Phet Phet Phet, Arnnengh! And I bit my thumb enough to draw blood, yelled "Summoning jutsu!" Slammed my hand on the ground, and instantly there was... a bear... cub.

"Ha ha ha ha ha!" laughed Annie, "Its just a cub!"

"I summoned a full grown one last night, I swear!"

"Sure, sure you did."

"Hey Terra," Said Derfer, "What time is it?"

"Its exactly- Oh my God! Its 11:57!"

"Shit!, I yelled, "We're gonna be late!"

The Sign In Place

"We're gonna be late!" I yelled as we ran down the hall, "We're gonna be- Umph!" I croed as I ran into someone. "I'm so sorry!" I exclaimed.

"Its OK." said a dirty blode haired girl with brown eyes, "It was my fault, I wasn't watching where I was going."

"No it was my fault, I was running down the hall." I said completley mezmerized by the beautiful girl. "My names Brian, whats yours?"

"Ran Hibiki." she said with an english accent.

"You sound like your from England."

"I am."

"Whao! I thought all this was just happening in the US!"

"So did I until I found this."

"Wow... The only English person here."

"I know, it makes me feel out of place."

"Naw, we're the youngest here."

"Really, how old?"

"All of us are thirteen."

"Wow, you really are, I'm fifteen myself. Well it was nice meeting you all." and she walked awat.

"Wow- wait... We're gonna be late!" Two minute later we're at the sign in desk.

"Name?" said a rather P.Oed woman.

"Annie Piekkola."

"Town?"

"Belle Fourche."

"Age?"

"Thirteen."

"Here," she said as she gave Annie a card, "This is your ID card, always keep it with you." she said as Annie walked away and I stepped up.

"Name?"

"Brian Gallagher. And everything else is the same as Annies."

"OK, here. Next."

"Derek Diefenderfer. Same as Annie."

"OK, here. Next."

"Terra Remarez, and same as Annies."

"OK, here. Now all of you go to the next table to get your equipment signed in."

This time there was 5 check in stations so we all went at once."ID card please." said a grey haired man.

"Here." I said.

"And all weapons and equipment." And I layed out all of it, "This is quite a lot of weapons for you."

"Naw."

"OK, your done. hers your card back."

"Well that was quik." said Derfer.

"Yeah, what do we do for the rest of today?" asked Terra.

"Lets go sight seeing!" exclaimed Annie.
