The dojo was alive with movement and sound. Posts spun, bags swung and dummies fell over as a blur of black and another of yellow raced around the training area. Like a well-trained orchestra playing its favorite symphony they flowed through, without a single mistake or collision.
But all became quiet as the door opened and the Old Master walked in. The equipment stilled and the blurs came to him and took the form of two girl ninjas, one of Light and the other of Shadow, removing their hoods and bowing.
"You girls have been wonderful pupils." The Old Master began in his slow and majestic way of speaking. "I am very proud of you both."
"We are honored to be under your training, Master." The ninja in yellow replied. Her bright smile flashed and her blond braid swung as she made another quick bow.
I am glad, Allie. But now you have learned all I can teach you."
The other ninja, named Keara, protested. "Why, Master, certainly there is more to know about being a ninja."
"Of course, there is," he replied, "but much that is learned cannot be taught by even the wisest sensei. And you will both find that out soon enough."
"What will we do now, then?" Allie asked, eyes showing worry.
Her beloved Sensei smiled. "You weren't thinking I'd throw you out, were you? By all means, stay until you are ready. You should never take the next step in your life unprepared."
"Oh, thank you, Master!" she exclaimed. Allie hugged him and trotted out of the training area. Keara, much less emotional than her partner, simply smiled a little before slowly following.
The Old Master watched them go. They are so much like their elements, he thought. Allie - Light; pure, hopeful, beautiful... his smile faded slightly. Keara - Shadow; good at times, has its place, but uncertain, hard to see through. Ah, Keara, he reflected, I'm just not sure about you...

"We'll stay together, won't we?" Allie said to Keara as she entered their room.
"Yeah, of course we will." she replied, sitting on her bed.
"Great! I'm so glad. You're my best friend, and I was afraid you'd want to go on your own,... Or worse, find someone else to team up with."
"You're all I have, why would I ever leave you?"
"Sometimes you never know..." Allie responded.
