Chapter 5: When The World Turns To Ice
"What the juice?" I say. "She was just here!" Howard is yelling out her name. I roll my eyes, cause, if she were around, she would hear him by now. I look at the window. It's open! "Howard, I think it's Ninja o'clock!" I say, whipping out my mask. I shove it on and as soon as I'm all ready, I leap out the window.
I leap from rooftop to rooftop, looking for evidence that Julian, a monster, or a robot took her. But nothing is found. I keep looking, though. Suddenly, I see someone. Their dressed in black, a white scarf, and white stripes. Then I know who it is! "White Ninja!" I call out. She turns to me, her eyes silver. I sprint towards her.
------------------------------------------------
(Your POV)
Oh my god! It's the Ninja. And... He knows you. Excitement spreads through my veins. But suddenly, you freak out and I flip over the edge of the building. Why am I even here? you think. Well, you wanted to find the Ninja today, so you took things into your own hands. You flip over and land on your feet, excitement rising up in your heart.
And just a minute later, the Ninja leapt down after you. "What have you done with Y/N, uh... what's your name?" he asked. You think in your mind of a catchy name for you. Suddenly, something comes to mind. "Snowbird," you say, calmly, placing you hand on you hip. "And I haven't done anything with Y/N... I don't even know who that is!"
The Ninja looked blankly at you. The Ninja looked blankly at you. Then he shook his head and pulled out his Ninja Sword. "Well, I don't care! This is my town, and I think your gonna cause trouble," he says. You hold up your hands.
"No, wait," then you pull out the book. The Ninja relaxes and stares at the black, silver, and white book. Then he gasps and swipes the book out of your hands. "Where did you get this?" He demands, slamming the covers open. You shrug, unable to answer.
"Was given to me. I also had a note that said, 'Help protect our Hero.' I was guessing it would be you." The Ninja puts his sword away. He turns back to you.
"I don't need protection. I'm the Ninja. So here's your book," he says, throwing your book back at you. "And SMOKE BOMB!!"
*****************************************
(Randy's POV)
My nerves are shot when I get back. Worry is my main feeling. But as I walk into my room, Y/N is there. "Where have you been!" I exclaim.
"She saw the Ninja and out she went," Howard says. "She saw the Ninja and out she went," Howard says. Y/N has a camera in her hands, and she's smiling. But how did she get out if not through the door? I think to myself. "I thought you were hurt," I say to Y/N. She looks up at me and smiles.
(At School)
I slam my locker shut. It's Tuesday. Me and Y/N haven't talked to each other since the sleep over. I still can't believe that she got out of my room without going through my door. She probably just got out through the window.
The Nomicon has been ringing off the hook lately! But I keep telling it, "No more Snowbirds." Then it goes quiet. WTJ! Maybe I could do this all the time... Nah. It's good. "Hey, Randy," a girl says. I turn around to see Therisa. She hands me a peace of paper then walks off. I look at the paper. It reads, "Meet us in the gym after school. Important! Thanks!" Us? Who's us? I stuff the paper in my pocket.
(After School, in The Gym)
"Therisa," I say. "First of all, who is the "us" in he note? And second, why are we coming here?" Therisa opened the door and I see Y/N, Howard, Debbie Kang, Melody, and a few other kids I didn't know. Y/N's face wasn't smiling, she was frowning and looking down at her feet.
"Welcome to this meeting. Please, Randy, take a seat," Therisa says in a cheerful voice. I gulp down my fear and walk over to sit with Howard. "Now, most of you are probably wondering, why am I here? Well, we're here to talk about 'someone' who has ruined lives and hurt people's feelings. Can anyone guess who it is?"
I look around he room to see Melody raise her hand. "I think it's Y/N!" she announces. Therisa nods. Shock courses through me. Following it is a shadow of rage. "Ok, good, Melody," Therisa says. "What has Y/N done to you that has destroyed your life?"
"She's lied about how pretty she is and how she is sooooooooo much prettier than me," Melody says, sitting straighter and flipping her hair like a fashionista.
"Ok, Y/N," Therisa says. Y/N lifts her head, anger sparkling in her eyes. "Do you have any thing to say to this?" Y/N shoots up on her feet from her chair.
"You know what, Therisa? I do! That was a total lie. I would never say that I was way prettier than Melody. And you can just forget about what your going to say next. I don't care!" She shoots back. I'm surprised by her raging response.
"Fine, then, if you don't care about what I'm saying now... Maybe you'll care about what Randy has to say." Y/N's rage slides away to fear and she looks at me.
------------------------------------------------
(Your POV)
No! No! She can't use him against you. Randy's face turns red. But he stays where he is. You try and keep a hold on your emotions. Crying isn't an option. You must stay strong.
But when Randy stands, your bravery decides to take day off. "I don't believe that Y/N would do any of that," he says, strongly. Your heart starts to pump harder.
"Y/N is a good person and she loves hanging out with me and Howard. Before I met her, she was hanging out with you girls. Now, it's almost like she's turned on you and stabbed you in the back! And I know for a FACT that she has not talked behind your backs, said anything rude to you, or made fun of you in anyway." Therisa seems like she's been taken back a little bit. But she has a new idea.
"Oh, Randy. I knew that you liked me, but you have apparently fallen for this pathetic, useless, brat," she says. The words the robot that tracked you come back to you like a movie in your mind. Tears rush to your eyes. Randy looks at you with a sad, but truthful look on his face.
"Fine," you say. "I knew that this was just a joke, Randy. I knew that you had been the one talking to the other girls." Randy shakes his head.
"No way! Howard, back me up!" Randy says, looking back at Howard. Howard stands, brushing off his light blue coat.
"Im sorry, Cunningham. But, I think I agree with the girls on this one." You feel anger, fear, and sadness drill a hole in your heart. Randy looks back at you. He starts walking toward you, like he's going to make it all better. But your not about to let that happen.
"Don't touch me, shoob! I don't want anything to do with you! I thought you were my friend. I guess I was wrong," you scream, tears falling from your eyes. Before you know what your even doing, your running out of the gym, and into the rain that's falling outside. The cold welcomes you. And you welcome it.
