The Scavengers are back, and if you've followed my story up until now, then you'll know it's not all gumdrops and lollipops over here. If it were just The Scavengers, I might've been all about the challenge, but this time they've brought their leader - an eighth grader named Victor. He's everything that Wyatt is, only a bajillion times worse. Victor won't rest until he takes away the most important thing in my life, and guess what? He's doing a bang up job of it. As if that wasn't enough, let's also toss in the fact that my best friends are getting framed for the destruction of the new Buchanan statue! Time's running out, and now I have to finish what The Scavengers started a couple weeks back, but as cray cray as they are, I'm freaked that this could actually mean the end of my rockin' ninja lifestyle.
