For being annoying as a sibling, these ninja really knew how to fight.

After landing a kick in the Hypnobrines gut- or, where a human gut would be- the five rushed past me. In a flash of colors the snake was on the ground and calling for its mother in three seconds flat.

They crowd around it and I take the best spot to watch left.

Right between Lloyd and Kai.

"Alright, alright! Ssstop!" It hisses, using its arms to cover its face.

"Tell us what you were doing," Cole demands in his obey-me-now-or-die voice.

The serpentine looks up at him with a hint of fear in his eyes. "N-nothing... jussst taking a sssmall ssstroll-"

"The truth!" Kai shouts as he cuts him off.

It flinches slightly and I have a bad feeling. I look back and my eyes widen, seeing at least fifty Hypnobrine surrounding us.
