Chase Cooper, back with my seventh diary as a 6th grade ninja. Buchanan School is holding an election for a new president and my cousin, Zoe, is in the running. In the midst of helping her prep, a group of students calling themselves The Scavengers invited me to join their club. Of course I didn't join, but telling them 'no' was a bad idea. Now the Scavengers are out to destroy my life, and they're winning. The entire school hates me, my friends want nothing to do with me, and a reporter is determined to expose my secret ninja clan to the school. Worst. Week. Ever. But that's not even close to as bad as what The Scavengers have planned. All the chaos I've been through at Buchanan School has been nothing compared to this.
