//I still can't believe I wrote 6000+ words on the first episode, also, red and black are the default colors of your hero suit\\

•

It was night time and all of the students have gathered in the gym to watch the big game against another school. Well, all except Randy and Howard.

So, their plan was to paint their bodies blue and white, wearing speedos and go all wonk once they burst through the doors. Randy thought it was a good plan, to get them to join the cool kids' area.

(Name) was already known as the cool kid for her good looks and beautiful voice. Seriously. She didn't want this but since Randy knew he wants to sit next to her on the cool kids bench.

They have given their clothes to (Name) beforehand and now, she's sitting on the cool kids section, watching the game while waiting for the two goofballs to make their move.

"And how is this gonna get us seats in the cool section?" Howard asks Randy as they hide behind the sign beside the school.

"Okay, trust me, Howard. We go in there like, boom! And they're all like, "Oh, no, you di'n't!" and we're like, "Oh, yes, we did!"!" Randy reassured him but Howard was still a little doubtful.

"Whatever; let's just do it. This stuff's makin' my butt itch." Howard says rolling his eyes before they snuck into the gym.

"Oh man. Sitting next to (Name) for the entire night and eat popcorns together. That is so bruce." Randy whispered, sighing lovingly.

"Uh... What?" Howard asks, couldn't make out what he was whispering about.

"Nothing! Nothing." Randy pushed away the subject and continued sneaking.

_Inside the gymnasium_

"Where are they?" (Name) impatiently muttered, holding a bag of Randy's and Howard's clothes on her lap.

Thankfully no one heard her since the band was playing pretty loud and out of tune. The basketball players were running around the wood floor, dribbling.

And then, Randy and Howard burst through the doors. Randy pulled out a pair of air horns and set it off.

"WHAT UP, NORRISVILLE HIIIIIIIIIIGH!" He shouted as Howard pull out a couple cans of aerosol string with a feeble farting sound, and release it.

The noises died down, including the band. Randy look up at (Name) with a big nervous smile. (Name) was stunned, her mouth agape with her hands on the bag.

"DOOORKS!" Bash bellowed, pointing at Randy and Howard.

The crowd laughed uproariously at them. Randy looks around before he realizes.

"Aw, man, he's talkin' about us!" Randy groaned and look at Howard who was already looking at him.

They both sat down on the normal section a few meters away from the cool section. Howard hugs himself for warmth while Randy was thinking deeply.

"I don't get it. That incredible display of team spirit was supposed to get us into the Fish Cage." Randy complains, looking up at the cool section and when he saw (Name) sitting there, he just blushed.

Doug tried to enter but Mick extended his arm and stopped him from even taking a step in.

"Oh man, she's even prettier in red velvet." Randy mumbled dreamily as he watches her leave the cool section and walk towards them with the bag.

"I told you guys that that was a bust." She told them, handing Howard the bag who gladly took it and unzip it to find his clothes.

"I still can't believe you're with the cool kids, and you're a freshman like us." Howard pointed out in disbelief as he put on his blue jacket.

"I know! But i guess they find me rather cooler than you. But, that's okay. I can always sit with you guys." She said and sat down between them, smiling.

"Cool. Cool. Cool." Randy continue mumbling when he felt his hand brush against hers, he composed himself and said, "Only the cool de la cool get to sit there. No freshman, except (Name), has ever gotten in."

Then Doug comes flying over their heads screaming loudly before crashing down on the bleachers in front of them with a few snacks on him.

"Nice try, Doug!" Randy sarcastically(or maybe not) said before he place his cheek on his hand again.

"Hey-hey, at least not sitting with the marching band. Huh? That section's got a Splash Zone." Howard assured him before snacks and beverages came down on the marching bands like rain.

The crowd beside them pulled up a blue cloth to protect themselves from getting hit by the splash.

Bucky on the other hand, started tapping his foot as he dings his triangle, he suddenly dings a little faster as he stood up and do a little dance.

"Zoot-ba-ba-doo-doo-doo-doooo." He hummed.

Flute girl scoffed and said disgustingly, "Bucky, there's no triangle solo in this song - or any song!"

Everyone started booing at him for his lack of showmanship.

"Bucky, what'd I tell you about show-boatin'!" Miss Wickwhacker angrily yelled but Bucky just kept on crooning and tingling his dingle.

(The hell did i just type?)

Miss Wickwhacker yoink him to the side and the band ceases playing.

"Hensletter, your triangle's writing checks your dinger can't pass! You're benched till further notice!" She harshly yelled.

Bucky heart nearly shattered as he try to reason, "But the triangle's my life!"

"Put your dinger in my hand, son." She demanded.

"You can take my dinger..." He said in defeat, handing her the dinger before saying, "but you'll never take MY BACKUP DINGER!"

And then he started whimpering, running out of the gym in tears while holding his backup dinger close to his chest. He knocks over the Carp Mascot, who flops on the floor with a wobbling sound. Steven plays from his bench, "Sad Trombone".

"Ooooh, "Sad Trombone"." Howard cringe on his seat.

"Ultimate band burn."

"Poor guy." (Name) sighed sadly before she and Randy turn to the game again.

*Ding! Ding*

They heard soft ringing from her pocket. She pulled it out and Howard and Randy crowded over her to hide the magical mp3 player.

"What's up?" She whispered while looking at the mp3 player.

"Danger detected. I will be on cautious mode until further notice." It says in an adorable robotic tone before it attach itself to her wrist like a bracelet and dimmed its glow.

Randy, Howard and (Name) look at each other in worry before they beamed with excitement. "Our first monster!" Randy whisper-shouted.

"Yeah-ha-ha! Can't wait!" Howard quietly yelled with pure excitement.

"Oh my gosh! I can't believe it!" (Name) quietly squealed.

And finally their school wins the game. Everyone left the gym in a hurry, some to go home and sleep while some spends a night out together until their curfew.

"You guys change, I'll wait out here." (Name) told them as she lean against the locker and look around.

"Waiting for the evil monster, are we?" Howard asks as he enter the boys room with the bag.

She chuckled and nod her head. "Someone has to keep an eye out, just in case."

Randy smiled at this and said, "If you need help too, you can just call me."

He raised the little device she had given to him previously. She made one for Howard too but he keeps using it for a whole day and doesn't know how to charge it until she finally hands them the charger.

"Sure thing, Randy." (Name) smiled before he retreated into the boys room with Howard.

Not even a few minutes later, she heard screaming from the room at the end of the hall. It came from the band room. (Name) gasped and knock on the door vigorously. "Randy! Randy!"

Alerted by that, Randy immediately wasted no more time and wipe the paint off as quickly as possible before he strip into his clothes.

"WHAT IS IT!? WHAT'S WRONG!? ARE YOU HURT!?" Randy shouted, bursting through the boys room and grabbed her shoulders, staring into her (Eye color) eyes that are gleaming with excitement.

"Our first monster!" She exclaimed, pointing at the band room and more screaming was heard before behind it.

"Sweeeeeet!" Randy yelled before he took out the Ninja mask from his jacket pocket and (Name)'s mp3 player(that turned into her bracelet) transforms into her super suit.

Randy puts on the mask and he transforms into the Ninja. He did a series of poses before they ran towards the band room. Leaving Howard alone to change in the boys room.

The band members cower back from the monster, screaming in terror. The monster took a trumpet and straighten it before he lumps over to the piano and raise it.

"S-Moke-Bomb!"

The Ninja and (Hero name) appeared in front of the monster. The band members cheered for their hero but then died down when they see a new one.

"Who's that?"

"Is she a new hero?"

"She's so pretty!"

"Even her super hero suit matches with the Ninja."

"Is that his girlfriend?"

The last part caught The Ninja off guard but the monster's roar got his attention again. (Hero name) glance at the Ninja for a moment before she turn to the monster again, feeling somewhat tingly inside.

"Drop that piano!" The Ninja demanded.

But the monster lift it over them and threw it at them. In a quick second the piano was sliced in half. And the monster sees (Hero name) with a sword in her hand.

(Picture above^^ also, not mine)

Her sword was made by her family's swordsmiths. Since her family's generation grew, they've gone modern and chooses to use a laser to prevent the blade from ever breaking.

"You have a sword?" The Ninja ask in disbelief as the band members cheer for her success.

"You too." (Hero name) reminded him.

The monster roared and threw a trumpet at them, which they immediately dodge and let it hit the wall, causing a crack.

The monster threw a flute with a signature on it. The Ninja and (Hero name) recognizes it as Flute girl's flute. The Ninja simply caught it with a deadpanned look and hand it to her.

"Princess Tootie! I almost lost you!" Flute girl cooed, cradling her flute.

The monster snatched the clarinets from the blonde twins. They both screamed and ran away to the other band members.

(Hero name) raise a brow in confusion. "What the flip? He's only going after the instruments."

The Ninja turn to the band members, "Hey, you, "Cowbell"!...Cowbell me!"

"Cowbell" glance around before they finally sees the cowbells in their hands and toss it to the Ninja.

(Hero name) sighed and charged at the monster. The monster took notice of her approach and roared, running towards her.

(Hero name) and The Ninja began to take down the monster. Using a cowbell and using punches and kicks. Luckily, the band room was big enough to fight in, nothing else was harmed.

"Okay, so here's a question, Bucky. What exactly is going on... here," He indicates Bucky's whole monster form with the cowbells, "like in this - in this area?"

"That's Bucky?" (Hero name) whisper to The Ninja in disbelief before she dumbfoundedly say, "Should've seen it coming."

The monster or Bucky, lean forward towards them and say rather distorted, "Rrrrr! If I can't play triangle in the band, then no-one will!"

"Bu-but m-my new show-boating policy! He was show-boating - you all saw it!" Miss Wickwhacker yelled, pointing at everyone in the room.

Then out of nowhere, they see Maraca boy shaking in the corner of the room. Bucky went to a shelf full of instruments and let it fall onto him.

The Ninja and (Hero name) took notice of this and gasped. They were both quick enough to hold it up and not let the maraca boy get squished.

The Ninja groaned, trying to hold up his side of the shelf while (Hero name) strains to keep her side even higher.

"We're gonna drop it!" The Ninja told Maraca boy, who quietly took a few steps back from under the shelf.

With all her strength, (Hero name) went to the middle and kick the shelf towards Bucky. Who screeched when the shelf hit him and shatter into wood pieces.

"Wow. You're super strong." The Ninja complimented, giving her a flirtatious smirk from under the mask.

"Not so bad yourself with the cowbells, Ninja." (Hero name) winked, her hands on her hips.

They both turn away from each other and glare at Bucky with the determination of defeating him. Instead of attacking, he ran away, creating a hole shape like himself and went to who knows where.

"Ho, boy." The Ninja gasped and a piece of the ceiling fell with a few cracks around the hole.

"Uh..." The Ninja look around with uncertainty while (Hero name) chuckled nervously.

"SMOKE BOMB!" The Ninja yelled and wrap his arm around (Hero name)'s waist, bringing her with him, away from the attention.

They reappear in the library with the Ninja's smoke bomb and they took off their masks and suit. Both panting from excitement and tiredness.

"That...was amazing." (Name) panted, sitting on a nearby seat. Patting down the strands of hair that are standing out.

"...Yeah, it was!" Randy exclaimed with pure happiness. His huge grin never leaving his face.

(Name) chuckled at his enthusiasm and stood up from the seat once she recollected her strength. "Should we...get Howard?"

Randy's huge grin slowly turn into a smaller one and he sighed softly. "How about, maybe, just a few minutes to ourselves?"

Taken surprise by this, (Name)'s eyebrows rose a little but she slowly let them relax and smiled. "Yeah. We could use the peace and quiet."

But she never thought he'd want it to be without having Howard around. Randy sat down in front of her and she turn to him fully.

Comfortable silence filled the air as they sat in front of each other, enjoying the other's company. They rarely have these kinds of alone time. It wasn't easy to have any alone time without Howard having to butt in every 5 seconds.

(Name) fiddle with her sleeve shirt and it was a habit Randy found adorable. She usually does that whenever she thinks or when she's nervous. Sometimes, Randy wants to hold her hand and intertwine their fingers together. Just the thought of it makes Randy smile.

"We need to think of a way to get Bucky back. He turned into a monster and we have to find out how to un-monster him." (Name) say to Randy, her index finger, middle finger and thumb still holding her sleeve as she look up to Randy.

Randy shake his thoughts away and nod in agreement. He's a hero now. He can think about dating (Name) when he's done with hero stuff.

"You're right. But what can we do? We know he's destroying the instruments because he was benched for show-something...? He did say that if he can't play the triangle then no one can." Randy told her, taking the discussion rather seriously than (Name) had expected.

She glance up at the clock and realize how late it was. She decided to close the discussion there. She also wants to go on a patrol and look for Bucky till it's late.

"Well, we can continue this tomorrow. Besides, Bucky could be out there somewhere." (Name) told him, her hand rest on the table.

"How about i..."

"I can look for him. You, mister, are going to sleep." (Name) immediately intervene.

"What!? Why!?" Randy exclaimed, standing from his seat in protest.

(Name) stood up with him and said, "Because, patrolling is cool and it helps me think. Also, you wouldn't want your parents to worry when they found out that you weren't in bed."

And then the door burst open. They panicked, expecting Principal Slimovitz but they see Howard with his hand on the door.

"SO THIS IS WHERE YOU TWO WERE!"

The next day

And so it turns out, Randy joined her patrol last night.

"We were out all night till curfew looking for Bucky." Randy told Howard tiredly. "You just can't find a runaway monster on a school night."

(Name) yawned loudly, taking off her glasses and rub her eyes. "It's been so long since I've gone on a patrol like i used to." She says, turning towards them before putting her glasses back on.

Howard then lean back against his chair and place his feet on the table. "Yeah, he'll turn up eventually."

Randy shakes his head, "Not good enough, Howard. The Ninja and (Hero name) needs to do something about this."

"Thanks for filling me in." (Name) muttered, smiling which made Randy smile.

Howard place his hands on the table and tower over them before saying, "No, the "Ninja" and "(Hero name)" needs to come up with a new plan to get us into the Fishcage tonight."

"Fishcage? What's that?" (Name) asked, raising a brow in confusion.

"I think what he meant is-"

"CUNNINGHAM!"

They both flinch at his sudden outburst and then the librarian shushes them with narrowing eyes.

"Hey, how about you come up with a plan for once?" Randy deadpanned.

It was quiet at first before the three of them started laughing hysterically.

"I know, it sounded stupid the minute it came out of my mouth." Randy chuckled.

Howard snickered, "It did, it really did." He place his hand on Randy's shoulder, "You can still make us the first, two other, freshmen in the Fishcage, Cunningham. I believe in you."

But then he yawns widely, stretching his arms. "Being inspiring really wipes me out."

"Seriously? You still want to get in the cool section?" (Name) ask, turning her head towards Randy in disbelief and surprise.

"Hey, you were the first ever freshman to even get invited to sit in that section. How are we suppose to be cool together if only one of us gets to?" Randy replied, turning his attention away from Howard and to her.

(Name) grinned and chuckled. Sure, she's used to being "the cool one" but she just wants to hang out with her friends. Her real friends. Not like the fakes back in her old school. She only has a few actual friends there. Bummer.

"Ok, back to our previous topic." (Name) pull out her MP3 player and place it on the table in front of them. It beeps twice before it projects a holographic screen. Randy gawked at this until he snapped out of it once she speaks again.

"Something turned Bucky into a monster. Last night, he was himself during the game until some time later, he's suddenly a monster." (Name) stated. Randy hums in thought.

"Maybe the Ninja-Nomicon knows how to change him back." Randy smirked and grab his bag before pulling out the Ninja-Nomicon out.

"What does it say?" (Name) ask once Randy opens the book and the holographic screen from her device disappears.

""Severing the puppet's strings". What the juice?" Randy read out and he turn to (Name) in confusion. With interest, she went down to his side and read beside him.

""You gotta D'stank 'em, bro!". What?" (Name) read out, her voice lace with uncertainty.

Suddenly red flashes before their eyes and they black outed into the Ninja-Nomicon. Various of inscriptions flew past them until they reach a man wearing a kimono and holding a fan. Some Japanese writing in the background as well.

(Name) gasped in pure shock at this. It felt real but she wasn't sure if she's even awake out there. Also, THE NINJA-NOMICON JUST BROUGHT HER INSIDE.

"I know. Cool, right?" Randy spoke with a smug on his face.

They look up before them and came in words, "The evil funk possesses the vulnerable using that which he holds most dear."

And then the room changed and a scribbled Ninja came in a stance while the man in the kimono turned into a snake man. The scribbled Ninja destroyed the fan and the man transforms back into himself.

And then they were taken back to reality.

Randy stood up abruptly while (Name) is sitting still on the floor beside his feet.

"WE HAVE TO D'STANK HIM, BRO!" Randy yelled in realization,
