The Gang's training today, instead of, you know, playing video games or reading. Good for them, I guess.

Anyway, Reader here is beating up a punching bag, not really paying attention to what's going around him. His thoughts are just so loud right now, you know? It's kinda hard to ignore. However, all of his loud thoughts are disrupted when ice forms on the ground. Reader backs up a step to look at the ice saying, "Huh? Wh-" but then he gets cut off by Zane Spinjitzuing right into him.

Reader shouts in surprise as he is swiped off his feet and get violently spun around in a white tornado. Then, he's thrown hard into a wooden post and slide down the rest of the said post.

"Woah! Reader, are you okay???" Cole asks as he runs over to his friend. Reader groans and holds his head. He opens his eyes and move his hand to shield his eyes from the sun. He sees Cole hovering slightly above him and Jay and Kai standing behind Cole.

"What.....happened?" He slowly asks.

"Zane just Spinjitzued you right into the wall!!" Jay exclaims while doing wild hand movements. Reader slowly starts to stand, and Cole comes in and takes hold of his arm to help him do the action that he's trying to do. (idk, it just sounds weird in my head when I read "stand blah blah blah stand" you know?)

"I-I think I'll be okay-nope-nevermind-I need to sit down." Reader says. As he begins to sit down, Sensei walks over to them. Kai turns to him and says, "Sensei, Zane's....weird."

"What is weird? Someone who is different? Or someone who is different than you?" Sensei asks.

"No, Sensei. He's weird weird." Cole says as he sits down next to Reader. He rubs Reader's back as he continues, "He walked in the bathroom to comb his hair while I was using it!"

"He laughed at a sad movie. Laughed, Sensei. He laughed." Jay says emphasizing his statement.

"I was getting a midnight snack, and when I opened the fridge, Zane was sitting in it!!!" Kai exclaims. He sighs before continuing, "We like the guy, he's really smart. He's just...... a little off sometimes."

"Zane is a brother, and brothers are often different. I should know." Sensei says. But before the conversation could continue, the doorbell rang.

"MAIL!!!!" Three of the ninjas shout before sprinting to the front doors. Reader stopped paying attention to them, so he instead focused on the blazing headache he has just acquired. He holds his head in his hands and tries block out everything.

Buthe has to unto that blockage of everything when he sees Jay's feet approaching. Reader raises his head to look up at him. Jay sits next to him before asking, "How come you never hear anything from your parents?"

"Oh.....I uh......I ran away." He says. Jay's eyebrows go up slightly.

"Oh....I'm sorry."

"No, it's okay. I actually don't mind talking about it."

"Okay.....so, why did you run away?" ohhhhh, I was not prepared to answer that question. I should not have said anything. Uhhh uhhhh-okay-um, jus-just make something up I guess. Ohhh, I should've thought about this earlier. I should've prepared something. Dammit, why am I so stupid???

"I just didn't like it there."

"Why? If you don't mind me asking." At this point Cole and Kai are making their way to the sitting ninjas.
