Ok, Disclaimer, don't own the Ronins, though I don't feel bad about it because neither do you /*Sticks out tongue*/ /*Creators run over*/ Uh oh! /*Runs*/ Any ways, this is what I plain on writing with what you guys told me your favorite couples are (I tried to do as many as I could, but Mia is NOT being a slut and going with four of the Ronins! I like Mia; I'm making her nice.) Anyways, here it is, and I know the plot is a little odd.
Humans. When will they realize that some things are best
unknown? Some things aren't meant to be seen, and
rumors aren't meant to be listened to? These fine words
bring us to our story. One of adventurers, and three
boys not meant to be met.
"Hey! Kento! Rowen! Anubis! Come here!" The three men looked at each other and shrugged, turning towards their female companion. She grinned when they arrived at her seat, as she held up a newspaper article.
"Look at this! You guys keep saying that you're itching for a new adventure, and that you need some cash too 'cause our stock is runnin' low, so why don't we try this?" Anubis grabbed the newspaper from her hand as she glared at him.
"Hmm, that's interesting, what do ya know. A boy and a tiger. In the Fireside mountains. That's odd."
"But look boys, this boys not the only one! There are two others. One is down by the Oki islands. Human, and he lives in the ocean area, with some whales!"
Well, maybe he's a mermaid." Kento suggested as Rowen hit him.
"One, he's a guy, he would be a merman, and two, mermaids and mermen don't exist, got it?" Kento nodded slowly. Rowen sighed as Anubis continued reading.
"And the last one's another boy, who's living in the forest. With a bunch of wolves? OK, why hasn't he been eaten yet?"
"Maybe they like him?" Kento asked as Rowen sighed.
"Wolves eat people for food, why would they…" He sighed. "Never mind. Why do I even try?" Mia laughed.
"It's OK Rowen, we understand the pain of being smart and surrounded by idiots!" Rowen smiled.
"Finally! Someone understands me!" He hugged her as she grinned. The door to the bar opened, as the group of four turned to look at the new arrivals.
"Ugh. The Warlords. Who came up with their name anyways?" Rowen muttered as a white haired man stepped up, grinning, arm slung across the shoulder of a slender, blue haired girl.
"Get your hands off me Dais." She growled, shoving his arm away.
"For your information, our boss did. If I had a say in it, our name would be much nicer!"
"I can see it now, the Powder Puffs." Cale snickered, as Kayura gave him the glare of death.
"If I hear one more word out of you, you can bet that you will not live to see tomorrow!"
"You? Hurt me? Ha!" Cale yelped as Kayura grabbed his arm and twisted it back.
"Ahh! Help! Mercy! Uncle! Anything! Anyone, just get her off!" Kayura laughed as she let go of the writhing man.
"Wuss." She muttered, as Sekhmet laughed and pointed at Cale.
"You just got beaten up by a girl in a 12 year olds body!"
"Shut up Snakey, or you're next!" Sekhmet's mouth quickly shut.
"So, what is it our little loser friends are up to?" Mia glared at Kayura.
"Nothing of your concern. And by the way, what happened to all your clothes? Lose them?" Kayura met Mia's glare match for match.
"Actually, I enjoy wearing this. Brings on the attention of men, something you must not be familiar with."
"Uh oh, cat fight! Rwar!" Rowen exclaimed, as all the other men nodded in agreement. Anubis sighed.
"OK Mia, that's enough fighting with Kayura today." He grabbed Mia by the waist and set her back in her chair since during the battle of words she had rose to her feet. Dais glanced at the table, noticing the newspaper strewn across the table.
"What's this?" He asked, grabbing the sheet moments before Rowen.
"What? Three boys living with animals? Hey, look, and there's a reward as well!" Kayura turned her attention to Dais.
"Huh?" Money?" Kayura snatched the paper from the other man's hands.
"Oww! Paper cut!" Kayura sighed.
"Stop whining." She quickly scanned over the article, a smile forming on her delicate features.
"Hmm, these boys are worth a pretty penny. Well, come on boys; time to go to Master Talpa. I think he'll be interested in our findings." The three other boys nodded as Kayura lead them to the door.
"What are we going to do? With the Warlords after them as well, I highly doubt we can find all three!"
"Well, lets at least try to get one. I mean, this is all for the fun, right?" Mia nodded.
"And the money too." Anubis pointed out.
"We're running low on cash. We're down to out last hundred." Mia winced.
"Dang. We really must stop coming here and buying drinks. We're digging ourselves a hole, aren't we?" Rowen nodded.
"You got that right." Again, Mia sighed. This was so unfair. Why must the Warlords compete with them for EVERYTHING? Why were the Warlords always so interested in them?
"Well, come on guys. Lets go rest at the hotel, and tomorrow we can start, OK?" The others nodded as Mia led them away.

A boy of about 14, tawny and thin for his age, shook his head, water spraying everywhere.
"Cye, you need to go back to the island. You know that you can't stay here in the water, you'll drown."
"But, but, Mum!" Ocrana sighed.
"Come on honey, you have to go to sleep, it's late, and you know that you are not like I am, you can not sleep in the water, and see in the night." Cye sighed. There was no use protesting against his large mother. He hugged the whale one last time, before swimming to shore.
"You will watch over me, right mum?"
"Of course. I would never let any harm come to my only child. You may not be like me, but I love you more then you could ever imagine." Cye smiled.
"Thank you for the reassurance mum."
"Anytime, love." He smiled, Wet auburn locks plastered to his face. He brushed them aside, and then lay down on the sand.
"Good night mother."
"Good night, Cye."
~*~*~*~
"Come on White Blaze." The tiger followed the boy. How the tables had turned and when White Blaze didn't know. He had been the fatherly figure over Ryo for as long as he could remember, then suddenly, the boy didn't need to be watched over all the time. He would go out on his own, and there was really nothing that Blaze could do to stop it. And now Ryo seemed to think that HE was the boss, because he was the human.
"I know its late, but I found this really cool cave over near the lake, and I wanted to spend the night there. Its gonna rain, I can tell. And you know that I don't like going into water unless I've got to." The boy was right about that. Teaching Ryo how to swim had been the hardest thing possible. The boy had simply refused to learn. Finally the two arrived at the crystal lake, as Ryo took a drink. White Blaze padded over, and began to lick up the water.
"See Blaze! That's the cave! Isn't it big?" White blaze watched as the human boy dashed over to the cave. Ryo certainly was a ball of energy. And at the moment the boy reached the cave, there was a clap of thunder as the rain began to come down in sheets. White Blaze groaned, as he made his way over to the cave.
"Aww, Blaze, you're all wet!" White Blaze walked over to the boy, who yelped.
"Don't you dare come near me when you're all wet! Uh uh, no way!" White Blaze grinned in a cat-like way, as he shook himself off like a dog.
"Ahh!!!" Ryo exclaimed, as he was covered in the clear liquid.
"You evil cat! Are you trying to get me sick?" Blaze said nothing as Ryo groaned. Now I'm wet, and eww… I hate being wet!" Blaze said nothing as he curled up on the floor of the cave. Ryo sighed, as he curled up next to the tiger.
"You're lucky that I'm tired and wet and that I can't hurt you." Blaze rolled his eyes as the two fell into the depths of slumber.

"Sage, go to sleep."
"But mother, there's something out there. I can sense it."
"And Son, there always will be. We are not alone in the forest, you should know that."
"But it's not wild. It's a human." The large wolf rose to her feet, two other wolves standing up next to her.
"Are you sure?" Sage nodded slightly, as he crawled towards the entrance of the cave, peering out in the murky darkness. He closed his eyes, and reached out with something no one else could do. His mother said he was psychic, though he really wasn't sure what that meant exactly. He watched as his mother walked over to the entrance and stood next to him.
"Sage, go back with the others, I'll check it out." He opened his eyes and nodded, as he went over to the rest of the wolf pack. There were two puppies, his mother, and one male, and then him, of course. Though the male didn't really like him. Diego wanted to eat him. Sage walked over to the puppy's, which crawled over to him.
"Hi guys." He muttered. Kiarei licked his face, as he smiled. He slowly pat the coat of the other one, Acrian, who rested sleepily on Sage's lap.
"Hunters." Sage glanced up to see that his mother was back.
"I told you." She nodded.
"Stay in the cave everyone. They will not find us here." Sage nodded as he curled up next to the other puppies. Diego glanced at him, but he ignored the stares of the older wolf. Slowly, he fell asleep with the pups, his mother's eyes watching over them.

"See? I told you that master Talpa would be happy when we told him about the boys!" The others shrugged.
"Dais found it Kayura, he was the right one, not you."
"That may be true, but Master Talpa like me best."
"Only because you have long legs and breasts." Cale muttered.
"You are SO asking for it. Wasn't what I did to your arm earlier enough?" Cale cowered behind Sekhmet as Kayura laughed.
"I thought so. Well, which shall we get first?" The men shrugged. Kayura groaned.
"Must I do everything?" The guys nodded.
"Fine, let's go get the water one. I've been wanting to go to the beach for sometime. Show off my new Bikini." Dais eyes widened at the idea, as Sekhmet.
"Don't even think about it. You know Kayura wouldn't go with any of us. She's too "Perfect"." Dais shrugged.
"I could happen." Cale sighed.
"You just keep thinking that bud."
"What are you three talking about that is not for my ears? And why are you three talking about things that aren't for my ears?" The Warlords looked at each other nervously.
"Umm… we were, umm… umm… talking about which guy looked the best!" Dais exclaimed as Cale looked at him oddly.
"Yeah, that's it. Definitely the blonde." He turned to Sekhmet and grinned.
"And you?" Sekhmet looked at Cale in surprise.
"Umm…. Well, I guess the red head. Possibly. He's cute." Kayura looked at the others and sighed. How stupid did they think she was?
"OK, I know that's not what you were talking about, but lets pretend it is. Well, come on you lazy bums, its time to go get us a special little boy worth lots and lots of money!" the other's nodded in agreement.
To be continued…
Authors note: I know, not the dreaded authors note! Ahh!!!!! Well, anyways, you guys are all being SO helpful. I can't thank you any more for how you guys are helping! There's only one pairing that I know that I'll be doing, but I still haven't decided who Mia will go with (that woman is really hard to pair with someone!) and the Ronin guy's are giving me trouble too. /*Grumbles*/ Bad boys! Well, anyways, just tell me who you want, and if I can't get them in this fanfic, I'll try to write another and pair together the rest. And with how many different guys are wanted with Mia, that could be a lot. Anyways, thank you all again! And I hope this fanfic isn't TOO weird for you. It's kinda like Princess Mononoke, but with more guys. And again, Thanks!
