The Missing Ronin

The ronin warriors do not belong to me. The grandma, and Mary do though.

"I'm just going out for a walk, Mia. I'll be back in a hour or so." , Rowen yelled as he walked out the front and was putting on his jacket. He paused for a few minutes, taking in the cool, spring air. As he casually strolled through the spacious forest that surrounded Mia's estate, he keeped looking behind his shoulder, to see if there was anyone behind him. "Hmmm...That's funny, I could have sworn that someone was behind me.....", he said queitly to himself, as he walked further into the slightly eerie forest. His gaze stopped looking around for strange off-placed things, and fell to the stars that were just slightly coming out of the grayish-blue sky. Soon, the grayish-blue was a dark sapphire blue, close to his own dazzilng blue eyes. Realizing how much time pasted, he turned to head back to the house, although, before he was even half way turned around, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the side of his head, followed by a sudden swirl of cloudy blackness, as unconsious took toll on him.


Meanwhile at Mia's house............


"Aw man! Where's Rowen! I'm starving!, Kento said..I mean yelled. "I'm wondering the same thing, it's been at least 3 hours since he left the house.", Mia said slightly worried. "Where did he say he was going?", Cye asked. "He said that he was going out for a walk, and that he be back in a hour at the most.", Mia answered. "I'll go look for him, he probably just lost track of time or something. White Blaze'll come too.", Ryo said. "Thanks Ryo!", Mia yelled, as Ryo and White Blaze stepped out the front door of the Koji Manor.

"Rowen! Rowen!", Ryo called out as he walked through the black dungeon like forest. Ryo had been here for what had seemed like three hours at least, maybe many more. "Man, I'm going back to the house to get the guys, maybe they can help, or maybe he's already back there." Ryo said out loud to himself. Just as Ryo started to head back, White Blaze, growled at him and kept nuzzling something on the ground. "What is it White Blaze?", Ryo asked. As Ryo walked closer he could tell from the faint light that shown from the flashlight, that the object was a type of cloth headband. Suddenly he relieased that it was Rowen's navy blue headband that he always wore. As he picked it up, he saw a fairly reconized stain on it. Ryo, then with the band in his hand, ran nearly at full speed to the manor.

Mia's House


"Man, where's Rowen, Ryo, and White Blaze!", Kento asked for the five millionth time this hour. "I don't know, Kento! Now be quiet!!!",Sage yelled in his ear. All of a sudden Ryo and White Blaze bursted into the living room. "There you are Ryo, where's Rowen?", Cye asked. "I......don....don't....kn-....ow.", Ryo said in between panting. "What do you mean you don't know!?", Sage said. "White Blaze and I searched the forest three times, and all we found was Rowen's headband, that's it.....", Ryo became oddly quiet after mentioning Rowen's headband. "What about Rowen's headband?", Mia asked. Ryo hesitated before answering,"Well,...um.....I found it laying on the ground,....and......it has a very recongizeable stain on it.", Ryo said, showing the headband to them. They all stared in shock at the dried blood stain that was all over it."Oh, god! Something must have happen to him, we have to find him right now!", Mia started saying. "Mia calm down, we'll find him, his armor is connected to ours, we can probably find him with it.", Cye told her. "Let's try that, then.", Ryo said, after he had finally caught his breathe. The remaining 4 ronins closed their eyes, and conitrated on the armor of Strata, but they couldn't find it, there was the present of the Armor of Torrent,Wildfire,Hardrock,and Halo, but no Strata. "It's like he wasn't even here.", Sage said. "Well, let's report it to the police."

Meanwhile.......

"Wake Up!", a little girl yelled into the blue haired youth. "Mary! Don't wake him up, he needs to rest.", a elder lady yelled to Mary. "Okay, Grandma." "Why don't you go play outside?" The little replied by running out the back door. "Uggh.....", came from the boy that was asleep on the cot. "Oh, hello. It's about time you woke up.", said the little old lady. The boy turn over, and ask, "Where am I?" "Who am I?" "Why don't you know your name?" "No, I don't remember."
