*Kat pov*

    "So do you have a name or am I going to have to call you newbie forever?" Spine Stealer snapped at me.

    "I'm Kat." Spine Stealer rolled her eyes.

    "Not your real name, your killer name." She crossed her arms. My killer name? "You don't kill people, do you." She glared at me. "We need to change that. Follow me." She ran off into the forest. I sprinted to catch up with her. She's fast!

    "Where....are....we.....going?" I asked breathlessly.

    "You'll see." We kept running. She slowed down a bit and then stopped. I nearly crashed into her. We were in a small clearing surrounded by thick undergrowth and trees. "This will be your new home for a while." I looked around, there was a small fire pit and a sleeping bag in the middle surrounded by weapons. She walked over to the weapons. "Weapon of choice."

    "Uh, bow and arrow?" She laughed at me.

    "How about a real weapon?" She inspected a dagger then put it in a small pile of weapons.

    "It is a real weapon!" I replied. It's the only one I'm good at. She rolled her eyes and went back to searching through her swords and daggers.

     Looks like some one is in need of her bow and arrow.

    Yes! But I can't go back and get it, Slendy will freak!

    Don't worry I've got this, look to your side. I looked over. There, balanced perfectly, were my bow and quiver. I quietly picked them up and slung my quiver across my back. I notched an arrow and aimed at a knife in Spine Stealer's hands. I let go. She jumped back in surprise as my arrow knocked the knife clean out of her hands. She looked back at me.

    "My weapon of choice is my bow and arrow." I crossed my arms. She jumped up and pressed a dagger to my neck.

    "You may have your wimpy bow and arrow while you are with Slenderman, but with me, you choose a different weapon." She hissed. She glared at me. I glared back. In one movement she stabbed my head. "Choose a different weapon." She hissed as she walked back to her weapons. I winced as I pulled the knife out of my head. Man talk about a killer headache. "Well? You're weapon of choice?" She stood impatiently in front of a long line of weapons and tools. I walked over to it. A large assortment of weapons were laid out on a large sheet, almost all of them were made out of bone. I inspected a few weapons before one caught my eye. I picked it up.

    "This one." I held it out. She looked at me.

    "Are you sure?" I nodded. "Ok I guess you'll be a ninja." I chose a pair of katanas. I strapped them to my back. "Tonight we'll get you somthing to go along with your katanas, but for now we're going to train." She walked to one side of the clearing. "Today I'll teach you hand to hand combat." She smiled. This can't be good. I walked over to her. "Put your weapons down over there." She pointed to a spot close to her own collection of weapons. I put down my bow and katanas and walked back to her.

    "Ok come at me." She put her hands on her waist and stood still. I swung my fist at her face. Her hand flew up and caught my fist. She twisted her hand, dislocateing my arm, and pushed me to the ground. I held back a scream of pain as I pushed it back in place. "Lesson one, your eyes are your biggest weakness. Don't stare at my head if your going to hit there. Try again." I stood up. "Widen your stance, spread out your weight." I moved my feet apart. "Put up your hands." I held my hands in what I hoped was a fighting position. "Ok now jump!" She kicked my feet out from under me and I fell on my back.

    "What was that for?!" I stood up. She kicked my feet out from under me again. I glared up at her. "At least give me a chance to get ready!" I stood up, keeping an eye on her. She raised an eye brow.

    "Ready?" She asked.

    "Ye-Oof!" She kicked my feet out from under me again.

    "I even gave you time to get ready." She glared down at me. I just laid there. She stood over me. "Get up." She held out a hand. I looked at it suspiciously. She rolled her eyes. I hesitantly reached for it then thought better and helped myself stand up. "Finally you're starting to catch on. Fighting stance." I got back in my fighting stance and jumped. I felt the breeze from her foot as I flew by underneath me. She smiled. "Good, now duck!" She threw a punch right into my face.

**********Several hours later*********

    "You've gotten better, now strap up your weapons, were leaving soon." Spine Stealer put her prized bone sword in its sheath and grabbed a small backpack then hid everything else in the bushes. I strapped my katanas to my back and slung my bow and arrows over my shoulder."Ready? Let's go." She ran off into the forest and I ran after her. The sun had set, but it was still light out. I ran after her and remembered running with Slash, Basher, and Fives after receiving my nickname. I was so lost in thought I almost ran into Spine Stealer when she stopped. She was staring at something ahead of us. I peered around her head. We were at the clearing where Toby and I kissed after I pranked him. Toby was laying down in the middle of it, mumbling to him self. I took a step forward and Spine Stealer put her arm in front of me, stopping me. Toby stood up and staggered a few feet in a random direction before he tripped and fell on his face. Why is Toby drunk?

    It might have something to do with the fact that Slenderp tricked all his proxys into thinking that you're dead.

    What!

    Ya Toby was devastated, he got drunk and ran away. Now he's probably too drunk to get home. I guess he'll die.

    Not if I can help it. I pushed away Spine Stealer's arm and ran over to Toby.

    "Ill be right back." I whispered to her, she scowled.

    "Just hurry up!" She snapped at me.

    What are you doing? He thinks you're dead!

    If he's as drunk as you say then he won't rember me.

    Ugg. I hate logic.

    "tobby." I called out softly. His head jerked up and his eyes rested on me.

    "Kat? Is that you?" He slurred his words. I smiled and started walking in the direction of the Mansion. "Wait! Kat! Come back!" He pushed himself up and staggered after me. "Wait up Kat, ma feet rrr stuck ta the ground." He stumbled after me. This is taking to long. I stopped and let him catch up. He leaned against my shoulder. His face scrunched up in confusion. "Kat how are you," He motioned to my body. "Here." I hugged him as I teleported him back to his room. He looked around in surprise. "Woa! are you magic?" He whispered the last part. I nodded.

    "I have to go now Toby, but please stop drinking." He grabbed my arm.

   "Don't go! You just got here." He hiccups.

    "Don't worry, I'll be back." I say as I guide him over to his bed. "Now go to sleep." I whisper as he sits on his bed. He smiles.

    "That's-hic-what Jeff says." He lays down and closes his eyes. I teleport back to the clearing and go back to where the Spine Stealer is waiting.

    "WHAT WAS THAT!? YOU COULD'VE JEOPARDIZED OUR ENTIRE MISSION!" She yelled at me.

    "I couldn't just leave him to get eaten by some wild animal, even if he is an immoral killer, he's still my friend." I crossed my arms.

    "Fine! But next time, you will listen to me. Let's go." She ran off and left me scrambling after her. After a few minutes of sprinting after her, we finally arrived at the town. "So how do you feel about ninjas?" She asked.

    "There cool I guess." I replied.

    "You know, choosing the katanas basically proves you were cut out for the ninja life." She lead me to a costume shop. "Let's find you a ninja suit."She picked up a rock.

    "Not necessary." I said, pushing her arm down. She gave me a weird look. I teleported us in.

    "Woa! You can teleport? That will come in handy." She seemed impressed. We looked around for a bit, until we found a ninja costume that fit me. I put it on and strapped the katanas to my back. "Ok now let's go back." I teleported us back to the clearing. Spine Stealer grabbed some blankets from her bag and handed me a few. I laid them down on the ground and unstraped my katanas. "Weapon training starts tomorrow, you should get some sleep." I nodded and laid down in the blankets, but couldn't get Toby's face out of my head. He looked so sad when I said I was leaving. I stared up at the moon as I felt my eye lids slowly droop, and draw me into the comforts of sleep.
