"NINJA!" The Sorcerer and Sorceress bellowed with hate.
"I thought you were a guy." The Sorcerer mused before blasting with the Sorceress.
But before their attacks could reach Hana, a dark energy appeared before her and canceled the attacks, "I, am, A GUY!"
"The Omni?!" The Sorceress cringed as the Sorcerer dropped her in surprise and fear.
"But... but, we thought..." The Sorcerer stammered only to meet the deathly glare of the Black Ninja who they just dubbed, as 'Hana' said, 'the darkest and most heartless being that ever existed'.
"I was sealed away by the one who I treated as a friend who betrayed me out of love for those miserable vermin she calls 'her dear beloved BROTHERS?!" She/he exploded with black energy, causing the Sorcerer, the Sorceress, and even the rat to huddle in fear.
"Fortunately for me," The Omni calmed down a bit, "the seal had a flaw. It could only be deactivated by the wielder of the Ninja Mask whose heart is filled with doubt. Luckily, this century provided such a warrior."
"This century?" The Sorcerer queried, "You make it sound like..."
"You've been fighting a different Ninja for the last 800 years." The Omni finished, shocking the two beings, "Those Ninja masks don't give them immortality you know. I created them in order to boost the powers of its wearers, and overshadow their hearts. (Grinning maliciously) Of course that would have happen if that little wrench hadn't sealed me in this pathetic form! I scattered those Chaos Pearls around Norisville in hopes of finding worthy warriors who would free me from my vile prison, only to have themselves sealed away as well!"
"Well there is a way we can free you, Your Overlordship." The Sorcerer advised.
"The NinjaNomicon?" The Omni brought out the Ancient Old Book of the Ninjas and threw it on the ground in rage, "It bears every knowledge passed on from Ninja to Ninja, except for the incantation to FREE ME! However, its not the only thing that absorbed knowledge from its owner and transfer it to another. The Ninja masks also bear that ability. If I can get my claws on one, I can finally once more shroud this world in shadows. There's only one teeny-tiny problem."
"The Ninja in possession of the Mask." The Sorceress finished.
"We can take care of that." The Sorcerer grinned.
"Yes. Although there is another option." The Rat scurried on the Omni's hand and let him stroke his fur as he conjured up an image of Randy, "The boy has potential. Such power would be a waste if he didn't serve me."
"That's the current Ninja of Norisville?" The Sorceress gasped in surprise, "I had him eating from the palm of my hands months ago and let him slip?"
"Wait. What?" The Sorcerer asked in surprise.
"I want him darkened." The Omni ordered, "I want anger to cloud his thoughts. I want revenge to quench his lifeless soul. I want greed to blind his clear sight. But most importantly; I want hatred to blacken his pure heart. His friends are doing a great job doing so, but they have yet lit the spark. I want someone who can set off the bomb and draw the Ninja into the shadows. Someone who has power, power fueled by hate. Someone who is loved by all, but whose heart is overshadowed by their love on another."
The Sorcerer pounder on who would be the ideal candidate, only for his eyes to widen in realization and horror, "Oh no. No, no, no."
"Oh yes." The Omni yanked his robe so that their faces could meet, "Think of it as a reward for your loyalty and for everything you've been through. If you could just clearly picture it."
The Sorcerer reconsidered the idea and grinned in understanding.
"It must happen on the day after tomorrow." The Omni demanded, "A day full of fun and excitement, turns into a world fill with darkness and chaos. Isn't that right, Little Guy? Yes it will. Yes."
The Sorcerer and Sorceress cringed in disgust when their boss baby-talked and rub the Rat's nose with hers. The Omni realized what he was doing and pulled back in disgust.
"I'm doing it AGAIN!" He glared at his followers, "Not a day after. Understand?!"
The two beings fearfully nodded in response.
"And, what happens if, he is the cause of any delays?" The Sorceress reluctantly asks.
"Not to worry." The Omni stroked the Rat's fur, "I'm sure things will go rather smoothly."
The Rat grinned mischievously before perching itself on top of the Sorcerer's shoulder.
"Now if you'll excuse me, my adoring public awaits me." With that last statement, the Omni donned his mask and disappeared into the darkness of the night.
"Hana."
Eyes fluttered open only to see Randy smiling before them, carrying a tray of food. 'Hana' smiled as she sat up and yawn.
"Good Morning." Randy greeted, "Or however you said it in Japanese."
"Ohayōgozaimasu." 'Hana' replied, taking the tray filled with pancakes, "You didn't happen to Ninja-Flip this, did you?"
"No." Randy brushed her off.
Randy donned the Ninja Mask and quickly flipped pancakes, cooking them to perfection.
"Maybe a little bit." Randy admitted. 'Hana' smirked in satisfaction, before devouring the entire plate in one gulp.
"So, up and ready for your training?" 'Hana' asks.
"You bet." Randy eagerly replied, "I can't wait to rub those new moves on McFist the next time he sends a robot at me."
"McFist? Bash's dad? The town's beloved gazillionaire?" 'Hana' raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah. He's actually a bruce guy, when he's not trying to blow me into smithereens." Randy glumly mused, "I wonder what got him to go against the Ninja?"
Unknown to him, the Omni's eyes began to glow red.
In McFist Industries, the Robo-Ape secretary was just chatting away with someone on the phone, when she is approached by a couple.
"Excuse us, but we have a very important appointment with Mr. McFist." The man winked.
"Oh well. Go right in." The Robo-Ape blushed, ushering them in.
No matter how many robots he (or Viceroy) sends, he is never victorious (nor is Viceroy).
"How hard is it destroying 2 Ninjas?!" McFist bellowed, hitting his head repeatedly on the wall.
Viceroy just watched on as he sipped his coffee. Suddenly, the door opened, revealing the couple ushered in by the Robo-Ape.
"Well hello." He mused before approaching the woman with the long black hair and twinkling blue eyes, "How can I be of service to such a fine lady?"
"Well first of all," Viceroy screamed and recoiled when the woman transformed into the Sorceress.
McFist snapped out of his rage and joined in the scream. The two men hugged each other when her companion transformed into the Sorcerer.
"You and I have unfinished business to attend to, Hannibal McFist."
