Chapter 7: Stars Awakening

You can't believe it. Your heart smiles when you see your father and Randy getting along. "So, Randy," your father says. "What sports do you play?"
"Well, you see, sir... I, uhh... I don't play sports." Your father is rather surprised, but he keeps his cool. "Ok, then what video games do you play?" Randy gulps down his fear.
"Grave Puncher, mainly," he says, quietly.
"Really? That's awesome!" Your father says with a smile. Your mother, however, rolls her eyes at this. After an hour of talking and eating, you and Randy ask to be excused and head up stairs again. "Hey, I got a surprise for you!" You whisper to him.
"What is it?"
"I can't tell you yet! It's a surprise," you say with a smile.

(Two Hours Later)

"Ok, come on." We quietly walk down stairs and open the back door. Your parents are asleep. You and Randy start running away from the house and into the forest behind your house.
"Where are we going, Y/N?" Randy pants.
"You'll see," you smirk. Randy trails after you, but starts to catch up again. Now, you find yourselves up on top of a treeless hill. You flop on you back and stare up at the sky. "Look!" You say, your breath not willing to catch up. Randy stands there, hands on his knees and is panting super hard.
After a few minutes, Randy lies down next to you. The grass, although itchy, feels like it's gripping you and pleading you to stay. The moon's silvery white rays block them out, but you can still see them. "Wow. The stars... are so beautiful," Randy says. He doesn't take his eyes off of them. Suddenly, he grips your hand, gasps, and points to a shooting star that's flashing by. You smile and make a wish.
Randy doesn't let go of your hand. He grips it tighter and you can see him blush a deep red. "I know it's late," he starts to sing quietly. "But stay asleep. I'll be here to watch you fall asleep. I'll be here to keep the night mares away. And I'll stay here, forever, and ever." You smile at the song.
"You know that song? Stars Awakening?" You ask him. He nods. You both stand and start to play under the moonlight. Laughter and screams fill the air. You don't care if anyone in the world hears or sees you two. All that matters is that you're having fun with Randy. And maybe... just maybe. You'll find that the Stars really are awakening.

(Randy's POV)

The morning sunlight wasn't above the hills and trees yet. I lay there, my eyes opening just enough to see Y/N sleeping next to me. At first, it made me jump. But then, I smile and relax. I reach out my hand and stroke her (Your Color of Hair: YCH) hair, gently. Suddenly, in my jacket, the Nomicon rings.
"Ugh! Fine Nomicon, make it quick," I whisper. I take out the book and run to the nearest tree. Then, I'm shopped in. I fall into a forest. There is a Ninja... no, two Ninjas. Their talking and playing with swords. But then, one disappears. And the one left alone pulls out his sword and slays a giant dragon. "The strongest ones are those who stand alone." The Nomicon says. I nod and walk over to the dragon. But as soon as I touch it, I'm shlooped out.
The sun is peaking over the trees and I see Y/N sitting up and rubbing her eyes. I gotta get her home.

(Your POV)

    "Come on, Ninja! Do I have to save your butt all the time? Is this how it's gonna work out ever time?" You set the Ninja down by his scarf on the top of a building. It's been a week since you had Randy over for dinner.
    "No way, Snowbird," he says defensively. "Just been having an off day." Suddenly, a large reptilian and robotic arm slams down between you and him. You take out your sword and slash its hand off. The monster screams and makes another move with its other arm.
    "Ninja Boom-Ball! Take cover!" Ninja yells, throwing the black and red balls at the reptile. You duck down, hands on you head and your eyes shut. Then, something flashes into your mind. What happens if the Ninja didn't take cover quick enough? What if he threw them the wrong way!? As soon as the bombs go off, you look up to see the Ninja lying there with his hands over his face. He moans a little then uncovers his face.
    "Ninja!" You run over to him, helping him up. Suddenly, he starts to laugh. "What the juice is so funny?" You demand.
    "Ok, ok. I know that your supposed 'protect' me, but it's just so much fun to mess with you." You glare at him and shove him over. If I broke the promise that i made to Shira, I'd be dead along with you! Shira is the first White Ninja, the first Protector of the Ninja. The Ninja gets up and pretends to brush dust off of his black and red suit. "Well, I guess I'll see you at the next battle!" You say. You grab a black and white striped ball and send it to the ground, a puff of glittering white smoke shielding you from your true identity.
"SMOKE BOMB!" And red smoke follows it. You jump off the side of the building, and land on your feet, tucking and rolling.
