Episode 8: Horde Practice

Narrator:After getting introduced to the Crimson Squad, Will and the Hanzo girls were given a note that was sent to the Crimson Squad. Now they have to figure out where the note originally came from.

*We all arrive back at the school, and we reported everything to Kiriya*

Kiriya:"I see, so this note was given to the Crimson Squad from an anonymous person."

Ikaruga:"Correct, we just need to find out who gave them the note."

Kiriya:"This is going to be a difficult one."

Kiriya(mind):I feel like I've seen this handwriting before...

Kiriya:"That'll be it for today, thank you."

*A smoke bomb suddenly appears as Kiriya disappears. We start heading back to the dorms*

Will(mind):I guess I have to sleep in the hallway again.

Ikaruga:"That note is quite suspicious, who would call upon the Crimson Squad for help when they are just random mercenaries."

Katsuragi:"Aren't mercenaries basically the best people to call when you need something suspicious done?"

Asuka:"Yeah, but how could these people know about Homura's group specifically?"

Will:"Um...I have a theory."

Ikaruga:"Oh, alright. Let's hear it, Will."

Will:"You said that they were evil ninjas before going rogue, right? What ninja academy did they go to when they were evil ninjas?"

Yagyu:"This place called Hebijo Academy. We've been there before."

Katsuragi:"Yeah, and that was a hell of an experience."

Will:"Did you guys nearly die or something?"

Katsuragi:"Something like that."

Ikaruga:"Ok, what are the chances that it is them? If it isn't, then who else could it be?"

Will(mind):But aren't video games and anime basically the best at making people say 'wow, it really is a small world after all'?

Asuka:"Well, the Hebijo girls are the only ones that we can think of that could be responsible."

Will:"Wait, the Hebijo girls?"

Asuka:"Oh, we may know some people from Hebijo Academy as well."

Will(mind):Huh...it really is a small world.

Ikaruga:"Ugh...we shouldn't assume too much."

Hibari:"U-Um, guys...what are we going to eat?"

Will:"Oh right, we didn't get dinner yet."

Katsuragi:"Alright, let's go get some food real quick!"

*We eat dinner and arrive at the dorms. I end up sleeping in the hallway again*

Will:"Goodnight, girls."

Girls:"Goodnight, Will."

*The girls go into their room*

Will(mind):On the bright side, I think I've gotten along with all of my classmates now, that's good.

*The girls' point of view*

*The girls go to sleep one by one, until Asuka and Ikaruga are the only two girls still awake*

Asuka:"Hmm..."

Ikaruga:"Is something wrong, Asuka?"

Asuka:"Huh? O-Oh no, it's fine. Sorry to worry you, Ikaruga."

Ikaruga:"Hmm...it's Will, isn't it?"

Asuka:"H-Huh?!"

*Asuka starts blushing*

Ikaruga:"Shh, everyone is still asleep."

Asuka:"S-Sorry, but what do you mean by 'it's Will'?"

Ikaruga:"He's been on your mind. Well, I'd be lying if I said that you're the only one."

Asuka:"S-So he's on your mind too?"

Ikaruga:"Yes, I've been wondering about what he hasn't been telling us. He said he's here to fight of Evil Ninjas, but what kind of enemy was he necessarily meant to fight?"

Asuka:"O-Oh, yeah...it seems like he could easily take down any Evil Ninja if he wanted to."

Ikaruga:"Exactly, so why is he not being sent on missions to stop the Evil Ninjas?"

Asuka:"Maybe it's because he isn't old enough to be taken seriously."

Ikaruga:"I just feel like something's not adding up. We've been fine with keeping the Evil Ninjas back, so what's Will's main purpose here?"

Asuka:"I-I think that's a bit too much thinking for us today."

Ikaruga:"...Alright then. Goodnight, Asuka."

Asuka:"Goodnight."

*Ikaruga goes to sleep*

Asuka:"..."

Asuka(mind):Will...there's so much that I don't know about him, but I want to know more.

*Asuka tries going to sleep*

*Will's point of view*

*I wake up in the middle of the night again*

Will(mind):Ugh, I swear! I'm always so thirsty at night.

*I go to get a glass of water*

Will(mind):I've never really thought about what Evil Ninjas are really like. What must be going through their minds, every villain needs a reason for whatever their objective is...and I don't even know anything about the other person who was summoned here.

*I go back to my bed, but I look at the girls' bedroom door*

Will(mind):Nothing wrong with just checking on them, right?

*I open the door a little bit, and I spot all the girls sleeping in their separate beds*

Will(mind):They look so adorable. Well, I guess everything is ok.

*I close the door and go back to, but it ends up waking up Asuka*

Asuka:"Huh?"

*Asuka opens the door, but only spots me sleeping in the hallway*

Will:"Zzz..."

Asuka:"Will..."

Asuka(mind):Does he want to know more about us too?

*Asuka closes the door, and goes back to sleep*

*The next morning, we all go to school, and start our training*

Kiriya:"Alright, class! We will be practicing using dummies today."

Will:"Dummies? Like a practice level?"

Katsuragi:"Aw man! I want to train against someone who fights back."

Ikaruga:"Kiriya-Sensei, may I ask the purpose of this training?"

Kiriya:"Good question, Ikaruga. This training is to see how you fight against multiple targets."

Asuka:"So it's to help us if we're outnumbered?"

Kiriya:"Exactly."

Will:"I get it now."

Hibari:"T-There's no way I'll be able to take down every single one."

Yagyu:"Just try your best, Hibari."

Hibari:"O-Ok..."

Kiriya:"Alright, Ikaruga goes first. If you get knocked down or overwhelmed, the dummies will stop."

Ikaruga:"Yes, Kiriya-Sensei."

*Ikaruga steps into the battlefield, and the rest of us stand next to Kiriya*

Kiriya:"and If you get hurt, we will be able to heal your wounds by lunch times."

Will:"Wait, the dummies can hurt us?!"

Kiriya:"And begin."

*Kiriya presses a button on the wall, and a horde of dummies appear all around Ikaruga*

Ikaruga:"Hmph, hah!"

*The black haired shinobi takes out her sword, and cuts all of the dummies in half. Another horde appears, and the process continues until Ikaruga gives up after 30 minutes*

Ikaruga:"It's just training, I don't need to exert myself too much."

Kiriya:"Good job, Ikaruga. Next up is Katsuragi."

Katsuragi:"Yes sir!"

*The blonde haired shinobi jumps onto the battlefield, and Kiriya presses the button*

Katsuragi:"Heh, take this!"

*Katsuragi spawns her boots, and the dummies start attacking her*

Will:"They move on their own?!"

Asuka:"Of course, they do. These dummies were created using Ninja Arts."

Will:"H-Huh...I guess even dummies have some lore to them."

Asuka:"Lore?"

Will:"It's nothing."

*Katsuragi fights off the dummies until Katsuragi gets knocked down after 50 minutes*

Asuka:"Amazing!"

Will:"Good job, Katsu!"

Katsuragi:"Haha! Beat that, ugh!"

*Katsuragi puts her hand over her right knee*

Ikaruga:"Jeez, she needs to be more careful."

Will:"Are you ok, Katsu?"

Katsuragi:"I'm just fine, Will. No need to worry about me."

*Katsuragi tries to stand up, and she struggles to walk back to us. She ends up sitting down on the floor next to us*

Will:"I-I could have helped you out if you needed to?"

Katsuragi:"I-I'm fine, really. Don't worry, hehe."

*Katsuragi chuckles as she smiles at me*

Will:"Alright, if you say so."

Kiriya:"We'll get you some bandages and an ice pack for your leg, Katsu. In the meantime, Asuka is up next."

Asuka:"A-Alright!"

*The brown haired shinobi steps into the battlefield, and Kiriya presses the button*

Asuka:"Hah! Hiya!"

*Asuka fights off the dummies until she gets knocked down after 25 minutes*

Asuka:"Hah...hah...did I do good?"

Will:"You barely beat Ikaruga, you were so close!"

Asuka:"Really?! Aw man!"

*Asuka tries to walk towards us, but she falls over*

Will:"Asuka, are you ok?"

Asuka:"Y-Yeah. I-I'm fine."

Will:"You're not going to pull it off like Katsu did."

*I help Asuka, and put her sitting down next to Katsuragi*

Katsuragi:"Hehe, Asuka~."

Asuka:"Ah! Will, please place me somewhere else!"

*Asuka tries to escape, but Katsuragi catches her, and starts groping Asuka's boobs*

Asuka:"K-Katsu!"

Katsuragi:"Hehehe, I'm all healed already!"

Ikaruga:"Jeez..."

*Ikaruga hits Katsuragi in the back of her neck, and knocks her out*

Asuka:"Phew..."

Will:"...What the hell just happened?!"

Asuka:"N-Nothing, you saw nothing!"

Will(mind):It's like something out of an Ecchi anime!

Will:"O-Ok..."

*I look away*

Kiriya:"Next is Yagyu!"

Yagyu:"Ok then."

*The white haired shinobi steps onto the battlefield, and Kiriya presses the button*

Yagyu:"Hmph."

*Yagyu fights off the dummies, and gives up after 25 minutes*

Yagyu:"I didn't need to fight like my life matters."

Kiriya:"Alright, next up is Hibari*

Hibari:"Y-Yes, sir."

*Hibari nervously steps onto the battlefield, and Kiriya presses the button*

Will(mind):Oh no, she's gonna get knocked down easily.

Hibari:"T-Take this!"

*Hibari flails her arms around, and ends up hitting a couple of the dummies*

Hibari:"H-Huh? I did it? I did it! Yagyu, I did it!"

Will:"Hibari, look out! There's more!"

*More dummies jump down, and Hibari falls to the ground in surprise, making the dummies stop*

Hibari:"H-Huh?"

Will(mind):I tried Hibari, I warned you. I'm sorry, I tried my hardest.

*Hibari crawls towards me, and she looks up at me with tears in her eyes*

Hibari:"I'm sorry, Will." *Sniff* "I let you and Yagyu down."

Will(mind):Aw man, what am I supposed to say to her?!

Will:"It's ok, Hibari. Not everyone is good when it comes to numbers."

*I pat Hibari on the head to cheer her up*

Hibari:"Aw man..."

Kiriya:"Alright, Will. You're up now."

Will:"Oh boy, ok then!"

*I step onto the battlefield, and Kiriya presses the button*

Will(mind):Oh crap, what weapon should I use? I didn't think this through! Um...how about a sword or something.

*I spawn a small dagger in my right hand*

Will:"U-Uh..."

Will(mind):You've got to be kidding me...I didn't think the sword would be that small!

*The dummies start rushing me*

Will:"Whoa!"

Will(mind):Damn it, I guess I'll just have to work with this.

*I step back from the dummies, and I flip the dagger so that the blade was facing behind me*

Will:"Hah!"

*I slash the dummies, and they get cut in half*

Will:"Hah...alright, first wave is done."

*The dummies keep coming, and I end up only using the dagger until I give up after 30 minutes*

Will:"Ugh! Anymore dummies and I would have been knocked out."

Kiriya:"That was a great first try, Will."

Will(mind):Well, I'm used to playing video games for hours without end, so I have some endurance.

*I step off the battlefield*

Kiriya:"Alright, we're gonna be doing some practice matches after lunch. See you all then."

*Kiriya disappears using a smoke bomb, and we go eat lunch*

Narrator:Alright! I've got nothing to say about what will happen next, but I'm just gonna say to stay tuned.
