My name is Mallory. I am a ninja. At least in
my mind I am.
I live with my mother and
father in Upstate New York. I have a dog named Francisco Millington and a cat called Tuna. I named them both. I also
have a hamster named Carrol, but I don't
think she likes me much. They are my ninja companions. Except
Carrol, she's rather sleep and poop. I am 16 years old, but I'm still in middle
school because I can't pay attention in class, and, well, I may or
may not repeatedly karate chop my math
teacher in the face. I keep telling everyone he is an undercover ninja, because
he has this fu manchu beard that I hate. I seriously want to
chop it off. But personally, I think learning how to roundhouse kick a rival
ninja master is much more important than learning about
dead guys or multiplying stuff.
Today mom took me to see
a doctor. Not like a normal doctor, but like a head doctor, she says. I swear,
if he even touches my head, he's getting a fist to the jaw. I decided to wear my
favorite black Batman shirt with a trench coat, and my ripped purple
and blue zebra stripped jeans. I decided not to wear shoes, since shoes make
noise and ninjas never make noise. At the last minute I decided to bring Carrol
along with me. She bites my finger as I take her out of her cage. "Ouch! Jeez,
Carrol, lighten up." I mutter, shoving her in my trench coat
pocket.
When we get to the
doctor's office, I slink stealthily inside as mom impatiently holds the door
open. I get through the door, but I see a suspicious looking lady at the desk,
so I make a mad dive for a large stuffed bear in the waiting room. I crouch
behind it as mom signs in. I secretly observe the lady as she chats with mom.
Her brown hair is in a braid. Only ninja females wear braids. "Very
suspicious..." I mutter, stroking my own braid. Just then, mom asks for a pen.
Not good. It's probably a laser pen. I hop up from behind the bear, and leap
across the waiting room chairs, landing on top of the desk. I slap the pen out
of the lady's hand as she shrieks in surprise. I
jump off the desk as mom starts yelling at me. Suddenly, I
feel Carrol spaz out in my
jacket, and the next thing I know, she's jumping out of my pocket, and onto the
floor, heading straight for the door, which was, of course, open as a very suspicious looking guy stepped
in. "Carrol, no!" I cry as I zoom after her. I fling the door open as she
scurries into the small parking lot. I use my ninja powers to jump and land
right behind her, only making her go faster. Still running, I try to grab her. I
trip and fall on my face. I let out a keening wail, even though it doesn't hurt
that bad. I see mom starting towards me, so I get up, muttering about bratty
hamsters. "Carrol, how dare you!"
I holler as leap at her. Finally, I catch her. She bites me. I shove her back in
my pocket. Mom is furious as she drives me back home. Oh well, thats the life of
a ninja, I think to my self.
