From the perspective of Jay

Me, Cole and Zane were sitting on the couch playing a video game when we heard a loud knock coming from outside. We all rushed out to see the door trying to open from the outside. Sensei was back, and probably with a new ninja!

"Oh, sorry Sensei, I'll unlock it for you," Cole said. He unlocked the large gate and it opened. We saw Sensei, along with a girl (about fourteen) and a little boy with a hoodie (about ten).

"Who is this, Sensei?" Zane asked.

"This is Kai Azeria, the Master of Fire, and his sister, Nya. Kai will be training with you for the next little bit. Nya is here to watch over him." Sensei explained.

"Wait, Azeria?" Cole asked. "Doesn't that name mean 'fox?'"

"More importantly, Sensei, do you seriously expect us to just let this squirt train with us? He's like ten!" I said, and pat his head, earning a yip.

"He is your new teammate, and you will treat him with respect," Sensei said firmly.

"Mister Azeria, why do you wear a hood?" Zane asked, reaching out to pull off Kai's hood. He responded by biting Zane's hand. "Ow! I apologize, Mister Azeria."

"Call me Kai," he said. He turned to me. "And I'm eleven, not ten."

"We do not bite, Kai," Nya scolded him. "Only growl. Apologize to him."

"Sorry, Blondie," Kai said. "By the way, Im the master of Fire, so respect me or your hair'll be gone before you can say 'crap, my hair's gone.'" He turned to me. "I'm talking to you, Blue."

"Did-" Zane said, "did he just call me- 'Blondie?!'"

"Yep, and I've got lotsa names for you too, Talks-a-Lot," He said, addressing me.

"Forgive me, Ninja," Nya said quickly. "He doesn't get out much."

"That's quite alright," Zane responded. "I do not get out much either. Perhaps we will be ... Friends?" He reached a hand out to the kid, who did not take it.

"I don't make friends with humans," he simply said, with a spiked finish.

"Sorry," Nya said again.

"Kai," Sensei said, "You are the Red Ninja, the Master of Fire. This is Jay, Master of Lightning; Cole, Master of Earth; and Zane, Master of Ice."

"Yeah, I'm not just the Master of Lightning. I also do model sculpting, a little inventing, dabble in poetry, touch of cooking-"

"We get it," Cole said. "You're very talented."

"More like Mouth of Lightning," Kai said, laughing. I sent him a death glare, which he ignored. "Hey, look, A butterfly."

He got down on all fours (creepily quickly) and watched the butterfly flit around the bush, and once it calmed down, he pounced on it and caught it in his mouth. He then got up as quickly as he fell, and landed perfectly on his two feet.

"Come on, Kai," Nya said. She led him to where Sensei was standing as he showed them inside to their rooms.

"Weird," I simply said, then followed them inside along with Cole and Zane.
