I do not own

Ryder smiled, he already finished his first assignment, Long Range and he talked about his parents. Long Range laughed when he saw the dog tag.

"I remember how mad your parents were."

"I still don't see why they were mad; we used what they taught us."

"Your parents did not teach you that just so you can sneak into a military room."

"That was the easy part; the hard part was getting past the guards, who were watching us."

Long Range laughed "I feel I must ask this , please do not do anything crazy."

Ryder played with his pink dog tag "Us? Do something crazy, a group of kids who are a medic, weapon specialist, a ninja, technology specialist and me as a leader, what ever could we do ?" He asked playing innocent.

"I'm just saying, plus you get caught I am sure Snake can find a suitable punishment." Long range said as the bell rang.

Ryder grabbed his stuff and headed out , though just as the elevator was closing a hand came in. He cursed.

A lot of people came racing in, until the door closed. The questions fired "You know a ninja? Who's your medic? Can I eat with you?"

After that question everyone asked that. He just ignored them, and did deep breathing like DG said to.

"Thank god." He said and went to get his food. He noticed some people went to get their own food, while everyone picked what he picked.

"So what's your name?" A girl with long hair asked while winking

He held out his hand "Ryder."

She shook his hand, while giggling "The names Angel."

He took back his hand, looking her up and down. Wearing tight tiny clothes, and had for now fake tattoos.

"I bet you're not." He grabbed water and went to pay for food.

"Well Ryder, I would love to ride you anytime." She whispered and went to get her own food. He shivered and went to his table; he smiled when he saw Jared.

"Hey."

Jared nodded to him, while eating some carrots. "You are popular."

Ryder shivered again "Do not remind me."

He started eating his steak, and the two enjoyed the silence. They noticed how Sunshine dropped at the table in relief.

"Hard day?" Jared asked with amusement.

"Muscles sore." She groaned out.

"Stop complaining." DG said and getting Sunshine's card and went to get their food.

"Why are you wet?" Ryder asked noticing her wet shirt and hair.

"I showered." She said in a "duh" tone.

"Why, you couldn't have worked that hard." Jared asked

They both laugh "You have never trained with a ninja." Ryder said

"You have?" Jared asked impressed

They nodded "With DG's Sensei."

DG was coming right when he said; she dropped the tray's "Where? Where?" She said looking around

"You know, you remind me of a puppy waiting for its master." Sunshine said biting into an apple

DG poked her friends shoulder "Ouch"! She said jumping up

Someone came up with a lunch tray; they smelled him before he approached. "Hey DG, do you mind if we spar later on?"

DG was nice and didn't insult him "Sure." She wrote down her room number and floor "I will write a schedule on the door, when I'm not busy."

He nodded enthusiastically, they were happy he left. "I'm glad you showered." Jared said

SS smiled and started eating more vegetables. "Why all this?"

"You will keep it down. We may have an hour to ourselves but still some moves could cause you to puke."

DG said sipping some soup "Why do eat Japanese food?" Jared asked

"I was raised in Japanese culture, since it's my Sensei's way of life." She said eating a dumpling

He nodded and finished his chips.

"Ryder, someone wants you." Heart said with a smile sitting down, and nudging her head. She sat in her spot and eating her sub.

He looked to where she was looking and they heard girl's squealing. He nodded to them and looked to Heart "Why?"

"I think it's cute, you blush." She said smiling

They continued eating, until the smell of smoke came closer. "Is something on fire?" Jared asked in concern

"No." They all said continuing what they were doing.

"Then what is that smell?"

"Barbeque and Fire Starter, they just want to waste money don't they?" SS said shaking her head

"Hello! Hello!" FS said smiling

They looked to their friend and his teacher, they shook his hand and DG bowed to him.

"Just wanted to know that you are all invited to a spectacular show, thanks to your friend here." Barbeque said patting him on the back and leaving.

They all paled.

"Fire Starter, what are you doing?" Ryder asked as they followed him into line.

"It's just a yay school started, celebration." He said picking out a tuna sub and chips

They sat down with him "Who's helping you?" Jared asked also concerned

"I'm not supposed to say but since your my best friends, and roommate "BlowTorch, Zap and…Tunnel Rat"

"Daddy!" SS said with a smile

He nodded "Act surprised." He said eating his tuna

"BlowTorch" Heart said

"Zap." Ryder said

"What's the big deal? I mean they are adults." Jared said

"They babysat FS one time; he is now the person we know today." DG said

Jared got wide eyed "This is bad."

"Our tax dollars at work." DG said shaking her head

"You're not from this country." Ryder joked

DG smiled "Oh yeah, good thing to." She sips her drink, while thinking how crazy will the celebration be.

Cobra Facility

Mischa and Junko woke up by being wet.

"What the hell!" Mischa yelled standing up, Junko yelled the same thing, in Japanese.

They looked to see laughing; they both groaned "I thought you left!" Mischa yelled moving her wet hair from her face.

"Your daddy needed my dad." The girl said crossing her arms. She looked to Junko "Hey Junko."

"Whatever." He said not looking at her

She pouted, walking over to him "Don't act like that."

"Zena!" Her father yelled

She jumped and then smiled at her father, " In here daddy."

"Commander here she is." He said

"Does she have your abilities as well?" Cobra Commander asked circling around her

"You better believe it." She said with a smirk

"Zena!" Zartan yelled looking at Cobra Commander "Apologies , sir."

"My daughter is the same."

"When will the others arrive?"

"Soon."

They left

"Your cousins are coming ?" Mischa asked with dread.

Zena smiled playing with a pink strand "Yep" She walked over to Junko "Do you mind showing me my room?"

"Mischa and me have to meet with Lilith." He took her hand and they ran out.
