Hey peoples! This is my first story so I might be a little inexperienced, but I've been wanting to one of these for a while now. If you ask me there is not enough of these and I thought I would give it a try.. Not that I'm saying you should but reviews make me do chapters faster. Anyway enough of my yammering, on to the story! Charge!

"Ninja leap!" I squinted my eyes and looked up at the killer robot shrouded in light. It was a giant scorpion and rhino hybrid that shot acid out of its tail and horn. After Howard and I had gotten to school we both were surprised to see a giant robot smashing up everything. I had grabbed my mask and jumped into battle immediately to prevent anyone from getting hurt. "Hey ugly, over here!" I paused, where had that voice come from? Looking around I saw no one and decided to continue fighting the robot. Using my scarf I wrapped its tail up and pulled back until it got stabbed. It shrieked in protest and crumpled to the ground, sparking and twitching. Walking over to it I chopped its head off just to be sure the danger was over. Turning away I put my sword back and started walking away, until I heard a loud 'clank.'

I paused and looked over to it only to find its head had exploded and a weird piece of metal had embedded itself into the ground. After hesitating a moment I walked over to the discarded piece of metal and examined it. On it were two symbols, one that looked like a dragon, and the other a humanoid looking figure with a wispy tail for a bottom half. I looked over it in confusion before shrugging and pocketing it. "Smokebomb!"

"Wait so you're telling me that its head exploded and you found it?! That is so bruce! It could be some kind of ancient artifact that is mystical or something." After I had gotten back to school Howard bombarded me with questions. He kept asking about the thing non-stop even though I had already told him it wasn't that big of a deal. "Relax Howard its probably just useless junk like the fart box was that one time, no need to freak out." He stopped walking and looked at me in disbelief. "Cunningham this could be huge! It may be worth like a million dollars! I think we have a right to freak out!" I shook my head and headed down the hallway to our first class, Literature. Sitting down in my usual desk I found that the school was colder than usual, and had a more menacing feeling to the atmosphere. Howard sat down beside me and started talking away about how I should sell the weird metal thing.

I paid him no heed and looked out the window, watching as a bunch of school buses pulled up and started unloading students. All of them talked idly and grouped up in what I presumed were their grades. 'This definitely isn't normal, I wonder why two schools would come to our small town. Something's definitely up, gotta be careful.' I came back to earth when the bell rang and the teacher ushered us out of the classroom towards the gym. Upon our arrival the whole school was gathered together and chatting excitedly over something. After me and Howard had taken our seats the principal came up and announced we would be teaming up with two other schools for an experience project. After he had finished two different groups came in opposite doors and settled around the gym, taking in their new surroundings. "Hey Howard, who do you think we'll be stuck with?" He snorted and looked over the groups taking in the different faces and types of people.

"For our luck we'll get that skinny black-haired kid over there by the goth-girl. He seems like the wimpy type." I looked over to the kid Howard pointed out curiously and took in his appearance. What Howard said was true, but he over-looked some things. Like how the kid's eyes had an alertness to them, and how he was standing in a battle ready position. All in all he reminded me of myself, this kid would be a interesting case to crack.

"Hey Tuck, can you hand me one of your headphone sets I forgot mine, and without it this noise will drive me crazy." They were currently stuck on a bus with the senior class from Casper High. The whole class was traveling to someplace called Norrisville to partner up with freshmen to do some crazy experience project. I groaned as the familiar blue mist escaped my mouth causing me and those nearby to shiver. I handed Sam my IPhone and took the thermos from Tucker. Turning invisible I phased through the back of the bus and flew ahead of it. When I saw my opponent I blinked in confusion. It was a giant robot that had a ghostly glow around it, and was apparently a rhino scorpion.

"This day just keeps getting better and better." I mumble under my breath as I flew over to the glowing scrap-heap. Taking out the thermos I happen to look down and saw something that made me tilt my head in confusion. Beneath me a spandex-clad teenage boy was fighting the robot with a sword. He had some kind of weird red scarf and sash that matched the markings on his suit. 'How is he flipping like that, even I'm not that flexible after fighting ghosts for 3 years. Also how is he able to touch the robot, I thought it was a ghost.' Shaking my head I went up close to it and drew its attention. "Hey ugly, over here!" This caused it to look at me and charge, except not like normal. A giant green outline of the robot emerged and charged straight at me, leaving the black figure to fight the robot.

I uncapped the thermos and got ready to zap it, except that I couldn't even find it. "Hey where did it go-OOOOOOO!" Halfway through the sentence the ghost punched me back into the road and screeched its victory. Growling I got up and fired a ecto-blast at its head. The whole head came off in a shower of sparks and wires leaving ectoplasm every where. I sucked up the ghost and turned to go when a glowing green object caught my eye. Bending down revealed that it was a piece of metal covered in goo. Screwing up my nose in disgust I quickly wiped it up and examined my find.

On it were two symbols, both very unusual. One of them was a dragon breathing flames, and the other resembled the scarf-wielding stranger from earlier. I frowned in confusion before shrugging and flying quickly back to the bus, before someone noticed that I was gone. What I didn't notice was the red scales poking out from a nearby bush.
