After a few days of relaxing at the house Jace started thinking about what Steve told him.

He decided he needed to get back into practice. Forst he walked over to Theo's room and asked him of he was interested in taking some martial arts class with him.

After all it would be wierd for him to be a master level fighter over night.

After some thought Theo agreed that it would be good to atleast know some self defense.

They both made their way down to the loving room were their parents were waiting and asked them if it would be ok to take some classes.

Steve immediately agreed to this idea although he was sure Jace could atleast handle himself by the way he handled the machete that one night.

The next thing they did was inform Caleb and Joe who got permission from their parents also to start practicing.

The next day it ended up being the 4 boys and their girlfriends showing up at the dojo.

The girls joined with them but was slightly annoyed because they thought they would get more personal time with them now that the season was over.

As the group all walked into the dojo they looked around and didnt see any other students it turned out that the parents mainly Steve paid for private lessons for the group.

The 4 Teachers looked at and evaluated the 8 of them as they thought them the basic forms and moves of course Jace looked like a genius picking up on everything very quickly.

During sparring it became obvious to the head teacher that Jace was holding back with the other kids making sure not to hurt them or over power them to quickly.

He was doing this to give the rest a chance to work on there form and delivery.

After this Jace started 1 on 1 training with the head teacher while the rest of the group continued on the basics.

The only part Jace struggled with was grappling after all he was trained to kill in one strike not how to fight in open competition.

Sure some times he had to trade blows but that was with weapons or strike a real ninja wouldnt ever let someone grab him.

But for training purposes and the fact that he wasnt trying to kill his teacher he listen to the full instructions and was getting use to it.

After a week of practicing mixed martial arts during the morning with the group working out with the boys mid day and practicing his old techniques at night after every one was asleep. Jace decides to put it all to the test.

He asked Steve if there was any low level hits that he could take.

Steve told him not at the moment but gave hime the idea that not many would complain if some gangs had some people go missing.

Steve also told Jace to wait a few days so he could get him a proper outfit to wear out at night so people didnt see who he was.

Jace had to try and not laugh at this him one of the greatest if not the greatest ninja to ever live being seen by people.

That was until he thought about the invention of cameras.

4 days later and all black outfit with a mask that only covered from his nose down was waiting for him on his bed.

Jace quickly put it all on and really enjoyed how it felt loose enough to not be restricting but tight enough not to be in the way.
