This time I am simply updating this because I'm bored. I pulled an all-nighter a couple of days,ago and updated on nearly all of my other stories so I'm feeling pretty good. You guys enjoyed the last one so I shall try to make this one just as good. Keep in mind that this will probably never be completed as there are endless situation I can put Snake Eyes in. R&R please.

The List

It was just his luck. There had to be an attack on the base and the attacker just had to set up some sort of a bomb....right next to his quarters. It was a small bomb thank heavens but he now no longer had a south wall and a lot of things in his quarters were charred and burnt. It was too bad the guy had been fatally shot. Snake Eyes would have absolutely loved to interrogate him just to level the playing for his room.

If he could he would have let loose a low growl as he continued to stare at the demolished wall. He then let loose a sigh and began gathering his things into the boxes he had pilfered off of a few of his teammates. There were spare rooms and he could move into one until this one was fixed.

A slight rustle at the doorway alerted him to the presence of Duke and Scarlet. He turned and stared at them while placing a box of his shurikens into the large cardboard box. He had not been expecting anyone else to show up. Sure help would have been appreciated but people had other things to do around the base other than help him move rooms. He tilted his head to the side in question as they stepped over some of the debris blocking the remains of the doorway.

"Doc wants to see you." Duke told him.

"Why?" Snake Eyes signed as he stood.

"You were in the room when the bomb went off Snakes. Of course he's gonna want to see you."

"We'll take over until you get back and if you want we can keep helping out after you get back." Scarlet added, her face cheerful.

He sighed tiredly before complying, stepping over the debris, and heading down towards the infirmary. The two watched his deflated form wander down the hallways and turn out of sight.

"Poor guy. This has been a really crummy day for him." Duke sighed.

The two turned and began sorting the salvageable things from the totally trashed things. Once this was done they would place the salvageable things in different boxes and take them to another room that had been opened for him. Snake Eyes didn't have much compared to everyone else and it would only take a few boxes to move the things seeing as how there was a rather large pile of burnt junk.

"Hey check this out!" Scarlet suddenly said.

He turned from his spot, digging underneath the bed, and stood to see whatever it was she found. He looked over to see her holding a piece of paper, it was heavily creased, a sign that it had been unfolded and folded many times. It was in perfect condition, few things in the room were due to the ash that had been scattered around the room.

"What is it?" He asked as he came closer.

"It's a list. A really funny list. I know I shouldn't be laughing but I can't help it." She said as she broke out into giggles.

He took it from her as she began to laugh hysterically and read it for himself. The first thing was a little note at the top, in Snake's unique spidery handwriting, apparently explaining the list.

I was about nine when a thought hit me one day. What if I wrote down all of the stupid things I have done in my lifetime so I wouldn't have to re-learn them through experience and thus I have compiled this list.

Thing's I've learned the hard way.

1. When one of your friends dashed by you at full speed and tells you to run. You run!

2. No matter how desperate you are, no roof-hopping when untrained.

3. Be fast when stealing bread from the market.

4. Electric fences hurt!

5. Make friends out of your enemies because nine times out of ten it's more fun.

6. Don't get caught stealing from a ninja clan's kitchen.

7. Work as hard as you can

8. Success is just around the corner

9. It's a good idea to jump out of a crashing plane, helicopter, jet, etc., etc.

10. When any part of you is on fire it's a good idea to put it out.

11. Nunchucks hurt!

12. Katana are sharper than they look

13. If you like a girl go for it and don't make a fool of yourself

14. Make sure everyone else is in bed before making out with said girl

15. Don't annoy Tunnel Rat he has paint bombs

16. It would be a good idea to alert said bomb defuser to your presence when he's working.

17. Make sure no one's in the gym before taking your shirt off.

18. Do not ask breaker what he's doing because he will tell you.

19. No matter how much armour you have on it still hurts when someone kicks you in that special place

20. Keep a close eyes on all things pointy

21. Don't chug a BFC Monster. Yes, I know you can, but just don't

22. Never, ever offer to give breaker a hand

23. Absolutely no car chases in Paris (Anymore)

24. It hurts when you fall off of a car

25. If you want something fight for it

26. Ugh! Spelling

The list went on a little bit further than that but as Duke read the list he found himself laughing and reading them aloud. He couldn't help it. Oh the things this ninja had done in his lifetime. The guy actually did have a sense of humor. But as the list was finished a thought sprung into Duke's mind as he reached into his pocket for a black pen.

"That was ridiculously long." Snake Eyes thought to himself as he walked back down to his demolished room.

But when he got there he found the place totally empty and cleared out. He suddenly felt very guilty even though it wasn't his fault the appointment had taken so long. It was his job to clear out his room not someone else's and he had stuck them with it. He sighed for what seemed like the hundredth time since the attack this morning and began moving towards his new room.

He walked through the nicely polished door and nearly ran into both Duke and Scarlet who bid him a rather hasty goodbye before squeezing past him and hurrying down the hallway. He followed the pair with a puzzled gaze before turning back around and entering his new room.

He entered and almost immediately went and began unpacking the boxes but as he opened the first one a piece of paper sitting on the bed caught his eye and piqued his curiosity. He stood and went over to the unmade bed where the note sat atop his folded new sheets, beside a pillow. He unfolded the paper and turned it right-side up. When he realized what it was a slight panic filled his gut but what annoyed him even more was the item added to the list. He ground his teeth together as he read it.

27. Don't get caught in the room next to the bomb

It certainly wasn't his handwriting in fact he recognized it as Duke's. The man's handwriting was barely legible it annoyed Snake Eyes very much in fact. He sighed defeatedly and traced over Duke's sloppy handwriting but before he refolded it he paused and added one more.

28. Don't leave this list out in the open.

With that settled he began unpacking and setting up his new room. He had the feeling he would be here for a while.

There we go. I don't actually know if this one was better than the last but what the hey. I liked it! Did you? That's really all that matters. Don't worry though there are many more to come. Review please. Thanks for reading.
