• I woke up, slamming the alarm clock's snooze button to make it be quiet. I got up, grabbed my nice shirt, pants, and shoes, and brushed my teeth. I got everything else that was necessary: a pencil, pen, eraser, notepad, and my belt. "7 am, and I'm good as new!" I blurted out. I went to my work, a record store.
    It was a seemingly short day, and quite nice, too. But Before I realized it, the day was over.
    "Okay, bye! I yelled out to my fellow workers.
    "See you later!" they called out.
    I started my way towards home. Today was a nice day, except for the fact that I noticed a dark sense that told me someone was behind me. I saw a hardly noticeable dark figure dressed up all in black and its shadow moving everywhere, moving around at an almost lightning speed, as though its speed can burst anything into flames. What was it? Was it a monster? An alien? I started to rush home and made sure I kept a close eye on it. I reached my house and started to unlock the door at a faster pace than usual. Now I got the sense that someone was watching me, but I paid no attention to it. In my room, I was sure that I had locked the room, but surprisingly I hadn't, due to my hastefulness. I went to go take a shower. I got dressed and everything, and was going to use my laptop, which was in my living room. I noticed something; the black figure! This black figure wasn't a monster, or alien. I realized it was a ninja! Quickly, It grabbed me by the chest and held me against the wall, so it supported some of my weight and so he didn't have to hold me up. What would a ninja be doing here? I assumed it was a he. "W-what do you want from me?" I asked.
    The ninja did not speak. "I said, what do you want from me?" I asked again. He still did not speak. Even though I was a particularly rich person I never saw any ninjas before. However, what did this guy want with me? He punched me in the face so hard that I could have just died right where I was. I thought I was going to die, my nose was bleeding and the world was fading around me. I started dreaming about being in a warehouse somewhere, with many ninjas, just wanting to kill me. I woke up a few minutes later. "Ahhh!" I screamed. "Oh, it must have been a dream," I thought to my self. The light turned on. The ninja was there! I could see myself tied up and immobile. "You still didn't answer my question." I stated.
    After a few seconds the ninja replied, “Our boss would like to see you."
    "If he wanted to see me, he could have just gotten me himself!"
    "Do not belittle his abilities." Other ninjas came in with the boss. He was a buff man, and could probably kill me with one hand. I decided to shut my mouth. He only simply smiled.
    "Welcome," The boss said. "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Suki-Brokahama.
    "Well, what am I here for? I'm just some guy!" I nearly yelled out.
    "You deny your abilities, Tanto-san?"
    "What abilities, and how do you know my name?" I was starting to get curious, but I was also accumulating more anger at the same time.
    "Names aren't important, however, your ability to buy houses, land, even tactical nukes, with your money is important, yet you still deny that you need it. So where is the money? Hmm?" He said. He held a knife to my neck.
    "I'll never tell you! Especially not a creep like you!" I took out my pocket knife and cut the ropes to free myself. I kicked Brokahama in the chest, knocking him backwards, stunned, and made a run for it.
    "Get him!" Brokahama yelled out, clutching his chest. Every single ninja began to run after me. They were too fast, forcing me to stop and fight. I'll teach them not to mess with me! I ran towards them with my pocket knife, and yelled out a KIAI!, in my head. Hit! My weapon struck the ninja in the leg, and he grunted. I pulled it out and he grunted louder, and fell to the floor. But then I realized; "Of course! If I cut their hamstrings, they won't be able to stand and run!" I began to cut up all of the ninjas' hamstrings to disable their running abilities. All of them screamed when I started running around and cutting the back of their hamstrings up.
    "You are talented, Tanto-san. Perhaps you should join our side, and we will be the wealthiest clan on Earth!" Said Brokahama.
    "I wouldn't join you if you were the last person on Earth! I'd rather kill you!" I yelled with victoriousness and anger that I had defeated all his minions. My legs wanted to keep running, from all the adrenaline. So I ran towards him, blade sticking out. Brokahama easily pushed me to the floor. He confiscated my knife and was going to kill me. This time a figure, not dressed in all black, emerged from the window and struck Brokahama with a spear, right in the back. It was Mika-Chan! "T-thank you for saving me," I sheepishly called out. But she was gone.
    "Tanto! TANTO!" someone said. I ignored the voice. Pretty soon I fell off my bed, and waked up, from my dream. "Have you been reading too many ninja stories again?" Mom said. "It's time for school. Get up." I packed up my stuff and went to school. I felt a sharp sense someone was stalking me from behind.
