Mwahaha. If I hadn't signed the peace treaty, I would've burned JH to a crisp instead and served him to the Vitae jerks. XD
Heh. Don't tell him I said that.
Great part, Rider! This is so good I don't even want to finish "The Schism" yet because mine is dwarfed in comparison with your story!

I just had a thought. If the Ninjas don't find any hidden cameras, microphones or whatnot, then it means one of us is a spy. ¬_¬ *suspects everyone*

Hmmm... do you think Ruby could pull out her old magnifying glass and tape recorder again? After all, she has a knack for saving mysteries.

Veritas Vitae Part Five By: Rider
The ninjas were constantly vigilant. I swear, I don’t think a one of them slept. Especially since Madame Rosa of the coffee shop surprised Tdyans one evening with a tea bill for 28,000 neopoints. “What can we say?” Kiddo asked with a small smile. “We like quality tea.”
Tdyans opened her mouth, perhaps to comment on the ninjas’ “quality tea,” when Eri interrupted her. “We’ve compiled a list of suspects.”
The NTAG leader’s eyes lit up. “Read.”
“Well first, there’s that new dude, Strider. I reckon he be one of them Rangers.” She gestured towards the corner. A tall man swathed in a dark cloak sat at a rickety table, drinking from an ale mug.
“Too cliché.” Ikkin jumped from her position beside the dragon of the Chateau and rushed over. “Way too cliché. Next.”
“The Nimmo with the gold teeth.”
“He’s a suspect?” Having no Ikkin to fight, and leaving to poor bally dragon scratching its head in confusion, I approached. “Seems like a harmless old loon to me. No different than NSQ.” I jerked my thumb behind me, where NSQ was hugging the dragon rather forcefully, banging its head against a cabinet. The poor thing slumped to the ground as Gav and Landen did a victory dance. I felt sorry for the poor lizard.
“‘Harmless’ and ‘NSQ’ should not be spoken in the same breath,” Ikkin said dryly. “Next!”
“The strawberry jelly llama that knocked on our door last month demanding to know where JH was.”
“Isn’t that his ex-wife?” Ikkin asked in puzzlement. “Or ex-girlfriend or something?”
“Imagine what their children would taste like,” Kat said dryly, jogging over from the Tabloids. Huggsy followed faithfully. In fact, the reading of the list of suspects was drawing a decent crowd.
“There’s that newbie who works at the Petpet shop and claims to have relatives in ‘the business’. He’s either talking about the writing business or the Mafia, I’m not sure which, but either way, I’m staying on his good side.”
“Didn’t he try to smoke the chocolate cigar we gave him when Diana was born?” Huggsy asked. Kat just shrugged.
“Also, there’s one more item on the list…”
“What?” Tdyans gave Eri the full brunt of her authority look. I saw the young ninja cringe behind the paper.
“What if the spy is… one of us?”
I swear, you could have heard a pin drop.
Strider slurped his ale, breaking the silence.
“I hate to say this… but there have been several girls with their eyes on Huggsy,” Ken pointed out. “Get Kat out of the way, and badda bing, badda boom. There goes the biggest (and most homicidal) obstacle.”
“No former would break up such a happy couple, especially not one with a child.” I protested, anger fogging my reasoning. “And none of us, the true-blue regulars, would want to sabotage the place we have made home!”
“Don’t be so quick to generalize,” Stal said, removing his ninja hood. “It would not surprise me one bit.”
“Thanks for the vote of faith.” Ikkin rolled her eyes.
“Lunacy, a former trying to sabotage us from the inside.” Crystal pulled out her nunchucks. “Who added that to the list?”
If it were possible for Eri to shrink further behind her paper, she did so now. “I’m sorry, I’ll just erase it. Anyone have an eraser?” She inched towards Plushieowner’s desk.
“Don’t erase it.” Ken held up his hand and Eri froze in mid-motion. “You might be on to something.”
I darted towards the desk before Ken could react and grabbed the eraser.
Stal snatched it from my hands.
NSQ chucked Ken in the cellar.
Eri tore the list in half.
It was too late. The idea was firmly planted in our brains. There would be no proving innocence until we had proven guilt.

*Does victory dance again*
Nice chapter, Rider.
*Looks around, paranoid, that any of the forumers might try to harm him. Or his cookies.*

Mwahaha. Anyone who touches Huggsy gets a kick in the most uncomfortable spot. XD
*claps* More, Rider! I promise I'll get to The Schism when I'm not busy with schoolwork. ^^;;;
