[h2]Musashi Sakai[/h2]

A whole lot seemed to be going on all at once, most of which Musashi couldn't track from his upside-down, leafy position. Somebody got knocked down and there was a whole lot of yelling over somebody being rude, then a whole lot of talking about friendship and some people making introductions? 

Oh, but somebody had addressed him and asked about the panda part of his clothes, and a much, much older teenager who probably needed some exercise seemed to be glaring at him intensely. Could this mean...he'd found a rival!? On his very first day? How lucky was that!? He rolled over and up into a sitting position, eager to meet everybody and learn how things worked in this place, where surely he would find his destiny and become a superhero! or a ninja! or a ninja superhero! 

But there was no need to be rude by rushing over to his new rival-friend first, this guy he'd almost fallen on had talked to him, after all!

"I dunno, I like pandas. They're the only bear that has opposable thumbs! If I had animal control as my power I'm pretty sure I'd wanna teach one how to use a sword!" 

While that was true, Musashi's motivations ran deeper. First, he'd cobbled together his wardrobe out of whatever was lying around the house, since his parents hadn't generally stocked ninja-appropriate clothes. second, he was positive that nobody would consider a ten year old a threat anyway, but especially not if he was wearing a fuzzy panda motif and a bright white jacket. 

Well, not until it was too late and they'd paid for underestimating him, and really, wasn't deceiving and misdirecting the enemy what being a ninja was all about?

No need to let anyone know that, though.

"I'm Musashi Sakai, and I'm a ninja! I'm here to learn to be a superhero!"
