Ninjas: Although some people are afraid of ninjas, since they are so deadly, I think that
they’re cool. Because Ninjas have so many enemies, they live high in tree on top of mountains.
No one can reach them in their mountains tree forts unless they lower their rope ladders for
them. If you tried to climb up a ninjas’ tree without the rope ladder, you would probably get hit
