* 6 - Childish Problems

Both girls were giggling uncontrollably and ran down the hall in search of their room, opening door-after-door with excitement, almost like they were on a never-ending sugar rush. They had so much energy, the thought of living with the Ninja and having their very own room had them bouncing with enthusiasm. They had no idea why they were trying to run away from it all in the first place.

"Hey, maybe this one!" Mia shouted, opening another door and peeking her head inside, only to shake her head and close the door quickly, "Nope, that looks like the boys' room!"

Scarlett giggled, "Mia, come here! I think I found our room...! Well, what I think looks like our room!"

Mia raced over, her eyes looking into the opened room that Scarlett was standing in front of. The redhead sighed, shaking her head once more and putting a hand on Scarlett's shoulder, "No, this can't be it! Look, its only got one bed... I bet this is Nya's room! Wait, what about that room over there?"

"H-Hey, wait up, Mia!" The dark-haired girl laughed, following after her friend.

Mia rushed over to another door, not hesitating to swing it open and run inside the room. But what she hadn't anticipated was tripping on her way into the room. She squeaked loudly as she fell and not long after, Scarlett tripped over her fallen figure and on top of her, as she hadn't noticed Mia tripped earlier.

Hearing a commotion, the Ninja and Nya quickly stepped out of Sensei's room and over to where the girls were, Jay letting out a snicker at seeing the two on the floor and on top of each other, "Oh my god, what happened to you two?"

"Don't laugh...!" Mia hissed, trying to get Scarlett off of her but the girl didn't seem to budge. "This is hardly a laughing matter and—Scarlett, can you get off of me?"

"R-Right... Sorry about that!" Her friend quickly jumped off of her, allowing the redhead to get back onto her feet, "Hey... Mia, I think we found our room!"

The room had two beds on either end, with a large window in between them, curtains opened and allowing sunlight to shine into the room. A dresser was on the other end of the room, which held clothes and other items inside, and a sliding door for the bathroom, which was connected to the bedroom. Both beds were different, one was purple, while the other was scarlet.

Mia was bouncing on her heels, giggling and running over to the window, as she opened the glass and felt the fresh air, "Wow, we get an awesome view from this window?! That's amazing...!"

"I wanna see too, Mia!" Scarlett skipped over and next to the red-haired-girl, gasping in exhilaration at the view and the feeling of the air hitting against her face, "Why was I even trying to walk away from all this? This is so cool!"

Cole sighed, not engrossed by their playful nature, "I can't believe these are the Ninja who are destined to destroy the shadows. They're acting more childish than Jay!"

"Hey...!" Jay shouted at him, offended.

"Even so, we must remember that they are still passably young," Zane added in, watching the two girls looking out the window, tittering while they did, "In time, they will learn the responsibility they must have to become a Ninja. But for now, let them have this. They deserve it."

Mia grinned, sticking her arms out the window and leaning forward, "Look, I can stick my arms out the window! And the air... It feels so nice out here too!"

"Hey, I wanna try that too!" Scarlett copied Mia's actions, plunging her arms out the window and tilting forward. She giggled at the feeling of the air grabbing at her arms, before moving her upper body out the window as well, "Wow, it feels even better when you do it like this!"
