The Ninja Epidemic
You bolt through the door, not looking behind you as you flee your house. As you step onto the street you feel a sharp pain in your left shoulder.
You charge down the street as fast as your feet will carry you. You pass someone walking thier dog and nearly trip over the leash, the lady shoots you a dirty look and gives you a few choice words, but her harsh words and harsh looks can do you little harm. Especialy compared to the alternative. Ninjas can do alot more harm than than an old lady's disapproval of your actions.
You round a corner, hedges blocking your vision, and you slam into someone who was walking the other way. Both of you fall to the ground.
"Dickhead." Says the person you bumped into. You look up to see that it is James.
"James," You say, "We have to run. There's a ninja after me."
"You smoking crack again?" James asks you.
"Man, I'm not fucking around. A ninja is after me." You look around franticly, not seeing anyone after you. But then you realy dont expect to be able to see a ninja when he's following you.
"Stop moving." James says. "You have something in your back." You stand still as he reaches up to your shoulder and pulls. You feel a mixture of pain and releif as he takes something out of your shoulder. You're bleeding now.
You turn around to face James and see that he holds a bloody shiruken (throwing star) in his hand. His eyes are wide. He swallows hard. "So we realy did hit a ninja last night?" He says. You nod in reply.
"I thought it was a dream." He says to you. "What are we going to do?" he asks you.
What the hell is he asking you for? You didnt get them into this mess. You were just a passengar. And now, apparantly, it's up to you to come up with a plan! And what kind of a plan can you realy come up with to protect you from ninjas? I mean, they're ninjas for crying out loud!
