A/N: YAY! It's finally here! This took forever to plan and write, so yeah. I'll try to post twice a week or once a week depending on my schedule. And without further ado... Return of the Ninjas!

Emma smiled. It was Friday, her favorite day of the week, since she spent all day mentoring and tutoring young new ninjas. For the last week, she and Jake had been tutoring the same student, a small girl named Lucy Valentine. She was petite, but had amazing balance and battle tactics that helped her win. Right now, she and Jake were helping her gain strength and speed.

Jake. That was the other reason Friday was her favorite day. After tutoring for 4 hours, they both would go out for lunch before all her friends came home. It was nice to spend time with him after a long week, even though half of what they discussed was about the kids they tutored and mentored.

Emma looked at the time in surprise. She was almost late! Quickly grabbing her backpack, she dashed out the door to meet Jake in the foyer. Together, they silently walked to the main hall. Finally, he broke the ice.

"I wonder if Lucy will graduate today..."

Emma grinned, "Yeah I hope so. She's really improved," shyly she glanced at him, "You're a really good teacher, you know."

Jake laughed, "So are you. Look we're here," he swiftly kissed her, "I'll see you in the gym in five minutes."

In five minutes, Emma managed to keep her backpack in her locker, grab her tools, and head to the gym all the way across the school. As she saw Lucy heading into the gym, she walked over to her and tousled her hair.

"Ready for the final class?"

Lucy smiled up at her, "Yes Ms. Andros. I'm so excited! I'm going to miss you and Mr. Isop though..."

Emma laughed, "Please Lucy, call me Ms. Emma. Or even Emma works." She heard Jake walking up behind her. He put his hand in her's.

"And call me Mr. Jake. Mr. Isop just sounds weird," he shuddered. At that Lucy laughed, "So shall we begin?"

In seven hours, Lucy had done ten obstacle courses, battled Emma three times, and battled Jake four times. She passed all the courses, her time improving by a total of 2 minutes. She won against Emma once and against Jake twice. By the end of the tutoring, both teens were positive that 8-year-old Lucy would easily pass.
