The Enemy's New Recruits

Act 2 Scene 15: April 20th. California State Prison. Sasuke leaves the unconscious assassin by the entrance of the prison.

Female Officer: "Detective Myers, we need you to id the man that attacked you and The Ninjas." Detective Myers takes a good look at the assassin's face.

Justin's dad (shocked): "It's Dr. Phillip Carter. He's a well respected doctor and he operated on my son's stab wound weeks ago."

Male Officer: "Why would a doctor decide to attack somebody?" Detective Myers leaves the prison.

Act 2 Scene 16: April 21st. Sasuke's safehouse. Sasuke and Tohru have a conversation.

Tohru: "Shouldn't we wait for your friends?"

Sasuke: "I'll tell them when they get out of school. I should be thanking you for saving us from The Headless Dragon Clan and the assassin."

Tohru: "Let's just say you changed the way I used to see things. Let's stay on topic right now. The assassin was a doctor that operated on one of your friends."

Sasuke: "Right. I want to know why he would help scum like The Headless Dragon Clan."

Tohru: "Unless he was forced to help assassinate you and your friends."

Sasuke: "What?!"

Tohru: "Think about it. The Headless Dragon Clan rears their ugly head again with a new leader. Dr. Carter clearly had something to hide and Al uses fear to get help. There are probably a lot of Oceanview's elite with dirty little secrets that they want to help keep hidden from everyone including you."

Sasuke: "Al still holds grudge on us and the city. He wants us to suffer for the death of Kohta Sanada and the suicide of his mother. Whatever he plans next will have horrible consequences."

Act 2 Scene 17: Oceanview High School. April 22nd. The Vice Principal Mrs. Black goes on the intercom.

Mrs. Black: "Good morning, staff and students. Here are your morning announcements. The big game against our rivals Greenwood High is coming three weeks from today. I want to see you on all on your best behavior. If I see anyone being disrespectful and/or rude, your butts will be suspended from all football games." Steve throws a piece of paper at Justin. It says, "Got a text from Sasuke. We need to see him after school." Justin throws the paper back at Steve. The paper says, "I'll tell him to come at lunch.

Act 2 Scene 18: Oceanview High football field. Justin and Steve are waiting for Sasuke to show up. A couple of girls show up.

Female Student: "Hey, boys. Can you show us a ninja trick?"

Justin: "Sorry, girls. We're waiting for someone to show up." The girls moan and beg for them to do one trick. In order to get the girls to leave, Steve throws an apple in the air while Justin throws a kunai knife at the apple and it splits into two. The girls applaud and then leave happy. Sasuke appears.

Sasuke: "What's next, boys? Sawing someone in half."

Steve: "Sorry, Sasuke. So, what's up?" Sasuke has a picture in his hand. He gives it to them.

Sasuke: "Do you recognize this man in the picture?"

Justin: "Yeah, that's Dr. Carter. He operated on me a while ago."

Sasuke: "He is also the assassin that tried to kill me, the hostage and your father. Al is going to great lengths to kill us. From hiring an escaped lunatic to blackmailing the best and brightest of your community, he will not stop until Oceanview is a smoldering crater."

Steve: "What about Tohru? Can we actually trust him? He and his friend tried to kill us."

Sasuke: "That was my fault, Steve. I didn't know at the time that he was on The Headless Dragon Clan's side. I believe that he has seen the errors of his ways. He's willing to help us out."

Justin: "All right, Tohru is on our side. What if Al hires someone a lot more dangerous than Dr. Carter and Dylan Martyr, are we going to be prepared?"

Sasuke: "I guess only time will tell."

Act 2 Scene 19: The Headless Dragon Clan's secret hangout. Al and Dylan are shooting at targets with The Ninjas' faces. Thomas enters the room. Al and Dylan point their guns at Thomas.

Thomas: "Don't point those weapons at me, please! I'm unarmed!"

Al: "Are they here?"

Thomas: "Yes, it wasn't easy and we lost a few men." Shadowy figures enter the room in a flash.

Dylan: "Who are these guys? They look cool."

Thomas: "They are the young ninjas that survived the massacre at Shadow Village." Al smiles.

Al: "Welcome, my friends. Do you know why you're here?" They are all silent. "Well, one of your own has taught outsiders in this town your sacred ninja secrets and techniques. They also killed the people that I love. I want you to weed them out and kill each and every one of them. In exchange, I will go to Japan and help you rebuild your fallen village. May we shake on it?" Dylan and Thomas look to see what happens next. A ninja holds out their hand and shakes Al's hand. "This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

The End... for Now.
