Chapter 1

"Oh no! I'll be late!" Yui shouted, then began trying to stuff her lunch into her bag. She bagan heading towards the door, but soon reached the first obstacle: Her mother blocked her path, saying "You have to eat breakfast first." So, like any well thought out anime girl, Yui grabbed a piece of toast, stuck it in her mouth, and raced out the door at ninja speed.
She ran towards the ninja playground, the meeting place for all ninjas. But as she rounded the last corner, some fool suddenly bumped into her. It was Kouda, the idiot character from her team.
Kouda watched the ground getting closer and barely had time to think "Huh? Is the floor moving?" before his head hit the floor.
After being unconcious for two seconds, he woke up again and began asking the standard questions he had learned at the Ninja Academy: "Where am I? Who am I? Why am I...? Am I? Am I? Am I?..."
He was interrupted when Yui screached "Tsundere Power!" and smacked him across the face. "Shyaat up!"
Sitting on the ninja playground's swings, the mysterious-looking Aki sighed and commented: "What an annoying character..."
Yui and Kouda went over to two people hanging around at the other side of the playground. One of them was sitting on the bench, slurping boredly at the straw of a juice box- with rice taste! The other one hung the wrong way around on the monkey bars and was throwing ninja knives at the tree.
When Yui recognized her team mate at the bars, she squeak-laughed: "Kyahaha! Akayo, is that all you can do? I can do that much better!" Then she jumped onto it and swung herself eligantly next to him. She formed her fingers to a ninja signal andd yelled: "Have your hair stay up even when you're upside down no jutsu!"
Akayo sighed, obviously annoyed, and closed his eyes. "That wasn't the point."
"What was?" she asked.
Akayo didn't answer.
Uyeda-sensei stopped slurping his rice flavored juice and explained: "He was practicing his kunai throwing technique."
"Ah. Well, I can do that too." Yui said and pulled out her own ninja knives. "Hayaaaa! Take that, tree!" She hurled her knives, but instead of hitting the tree, they hit a guy who was just innocently passing by.
"SHINE!" They all shouted at once.
This was the name of the person she had hit.
Shine was now lying on the ground with a fountain of blood spraying out of his forehead.
Uyeda-sensei got up from the bench. "Let's go." he said.
Shine's nose made a crunchy sound as Kouda stepped onto his face.
"And once again, we have solved a problem by walking on." Akayo said as he, too, walked past.
"Shouldn't he be brought to a hospital?" Aki mused from a safe distance. Then he got up and walked home.

The team of four entered a dark room. On the other side of the room behind a deep purple desk stood a deep purple wheely chair that was facing away from them. It turned dramatically slowly with a squealing sound. Suddenly a "Hohohohoho" rang out throughout the room, which was supposed to be an evil laugh. After dramatically turning his chair to face them, the Ricekage continued to stroke his white long haired Persian cat, making elegant wave-like movements with his hand.
"I have an important misson for you..." he announced dramatically. At that moment, the white long haired Persian cat noticed its chance and jumped off his lap, running towards the window.
"Hey, wait Mobi! Get back here!" he called to his cat. But it was too late. The cat had already jumped out of the window. The Ricekage turned to his ninja subordinates. "Forget about the important misson. Bring me back my expensive white long haired Persian cat."
