When we last left our heroes, they had successfully managed to defeat a Sabanian attack with the aid of various beings from across Anime. However, our five fantastic battle armored samurai were saddened to learn that the She-Ronins had worn out their welcome and extended stay and were forced to return to the Heavens with Kaosu and Amaterasu. What new problems and threats await the Ronins and their friends? Find out as our saga continues...
"Wow, David actually didn't take up as much time as we thought he would." Sekhmet said.
"Yes, and that is a good thing. Destonus has been eager to write more of our exciting series after the pressures of school and preparing the credits for Ronin Warriors VS DBZ." Dais added.
"It is strange how it turned out. Who would have thought that we would make peace with the Saiyans rather than destroy them?" Kale added.
Just then Anubis entered the room and interrupted the other Warlords' conversation.
"We have a more pressing concern than the last series." Anubis said angrily.
"Another Sabanian Threat?" Dais asked.
"No."
"Drakka or Kajin?" Kale asked.
"No, far worse."
"Mia's evicting us?" Sekhmet asked.
"Much worse. Let me show you."
Anubis led the three into the Living Room, where the Ronins were watching TV and bawling their eyes out simultaneously.
"What's going on?" Kale asked.
"I can't see what's wrong. Slayers TRY is a humorous show." Sekhmet said.
"True, but remember who does Lina." Dais said.
"Lisa Ortiz?" Kale asked.
"And I thought his mental problem was solved. For your information Software Sculptors has not gotten the rights to dub it yet!" Anubis explained.
"Oh yeah! Megumi Hayashibara!" Kale shouted so loud the Ronins could hear him.
At the sound of the name the Ronins began crying even more.
"It appears they are suffering from She-Ronin Withdrawal Syndrome." Dais whispered.
"Much worse. A few minutes ago they were asking the Forgotten Souls to kill them so that they could join them up in the Heavens." Anubis explained.
Tired of Watching Slayers TRY the Ronins changed the channel, only to learn that said station was showing reruns of Neon Genesis Evangelion. The Ronins began bawling again while the Warlords prepared to armor up at the sight of Rei. The Ronins changed the channel again, only to find that Pokémon was on. In desperation they changed the channel again, only to find Saber Marionette J.
"It has to get better. There's got to be at least one channel that doesn't have something with Megumi-kun on it." Dais said.
The Ronins flipped the channel and the Warlords were relieved that it was a news broadcast. However the anchor announced that the station was returning to its Megumi Hayashibara show marathon already in progress, which caused the Ronins to bawl once again.
"It is very hard to believe that these guys took down Talpa, Drakka, and Saban." Dais said.
"They had better shut up or I will be their next opponent!" Anubis said.
He turned to the Ronins.
"You accused babies! Forget about the She-Ronins and get on with your lives! Shuki Levy could at any moment send more of his warriors to destroy us!" Anubis shouted.
Which caused the Ronins to whine even more. Fed up with this, Anubis stormed out the front door, slamming the door behind him, causing all sorts of things to tumble down.
"We better follow him. There's no telling what Anubis might do in his angered State." Dais said.
With that the three headed out after Anubis, leaving the Ronins to their misery.
Meanwhile...
A portal opened, and five shadowed warriors stepped through it. They examined their surroundings.
"It appears to be the location that Shuki ordered us to." one said to another, who appeared to be the leader of the group. He had a slight English accent.
"It sure is far more advanced that our homeland." a third said. She had a slight Brogue.
"I don't care about this stuff, let's just destroy those warriors and be done with it." a fourth said. He had a very deep Brogue.
"I'm all for that. They are no match for our power." a fifth said. He also had a slight Brogue.
"It's settled then. But we should work fast. We stick out like a sore thumb here." the leader said with a slight Brogue.
Elsewhere...
"Anubis! There you are!" Kale shouted.
"We were worried that you had been captured or arrested in your aggravated state." Dais said.
"Have the Ronins finally stopped crying?" he asked.
"No. They were still bawling their eyes out when we left." Sekhmet said.
"We should head back to Mia's." Dais suggested.
"Wait. I feel as though we are being watched." Anubis said.
"As do I." Kale said.
Dais and Sekhmet reported the same.
"We should summon our Armor." Sekhmet said.
"No. We need to get the drop on them. Summoning the yoroi will only draw them towards us." Anubis said.
As the four prepared to carry out their attack, a voice called out from an alley.
"Right you are."
The Warlords whirled around towards the voice.
"Who are you?" Anubis demanded.
"That's not necessary yet." the English voice said.
"Anubis, this doesn't look good." Kale said.
"Prepare to fall back." Anubis said.
"You're not going anywhere." the first voice said.
At this the Warlords heard the sound of five swords unsheathing.
"If it's a fight you want..." Sekhmet began, preparing to go to a fighting stance.
"Then it is a fight you will receive! Dark Warlords TO ARMS!!!" Anubis shouted.
The four began to go into kata motions as a kicked up Mystical Armor Gear began.
"Armor of White Neo Cruelty! Tao Chu Chu!"
"Armor of White Neo Corruption! Tao Ko Ko!"
"Armor of White Neo Venom! Tao Tei Tei!"
"Armor of White Neo Illusion! Tao Nin Nin!"
The Warlords were surrounded by the infamous flowered wallpaper and were quickly armored up as sakura blossoms fell around them.
Anubis brandished his Kasari-gama, and the others grabbed their weapons.
"Let's mingle." Anubis said Matrix-style.
(Shake Me Down kicks up)
The four charged at their attackers. Anubis headed straight for the leader, but realized that he carried a two handed sword, which he swung at Anubis, who blocked with his chain. Kale managed to engage with a skilled swordsman, but realized that Anubis was in trouble.
"Care to Trade?" Kale asked.
Anubis stepped over Kale Xiaoyu-style and engaged Kale's attacker, which he managed to hold off quite well with his Kasari-gama while Kale became involved in a fluid duel with the other guy. Sekhmet was taking on the other three single handedly with his six arm trick and multiple Katanas, but Dais was nowhere to be found.
"You cannot hope to defeat us!" their leader shouted.
"Wanna bet?" Kale shouted.
He held his sword above his head.
"Black Lightning Slash!" he shouted.
Energy bolts slammed into the warrior, knocking him backwards.
"You'll pay for that!" he shouted.
"Wait? Where is their other ally?" the English one wondered.
Suddenly Dais lowered himself by a silk strand attached to his legs, grabbed his Morning Star, and whipped it around, knocking out all five of their attackers. Anubis and the others ducked under it. The Warlord of Illusion alighted.
"I can't believe those fools fell for the oldest trick in the book." Dais said.
"Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't opponents supposed to get stronger as the series progresses?" Sekhmet asked.
"Well, now that we've seen their pathetic skill, let's show them how real warriors fight." Kale said.
"Good idea." Anubis said.
The four took charging stances and flew at the five. However, just before they reached them the leader brandished his sword, held it out in front and nailed them with a bolt of fire, knocking the four back.
"Where in the Nether Realm did those fools learn to do that?" Anubis wondered.
"Perhaps we didn't charge aggressively enough." Dais said.
As the Warlords contemplated their mishap, the other four pulled out weapons at well!
"What's this? They all have weapons?" Kale said.
"Their ornamental toys are no match for our yoroi. Spread out and take them down." Anubis said.
The four spread out and took on the nearest opponent. Kale once again faced off with the guy with the sword, while Anubis had a trident to contend with. Sekhmet had still had a sword to deal with, while Dais was face to face with another mace.
Kale and the sword guy parried and slashed, each barely stopping the other's attacks. Kale realized that this warrior was quite good, but he had no time for fun. He aimed his gauntlet and let fly with a claw attack, knocking the warrior away, who fired another blast from his sword, knocking Kale in the opposite direction.
Anubis had the advantage in his fight because of his attacker's short range; or so he thought. After dodging several thrusts, the warrior brandished his weapon, and let loose an electrical energy bolt that knocked Anubis into a wall, and then kept the pressure on, leading him back to where he was originally standing.
Sekhmet's decades of experience gave him an advantage over the female warrior's swordsmanship. He turned on his poisons and let fly with his swords, but she whipped out a crossbow.
"THIS is your defense?" Sekhmet said in disbelief.
Suddenly she fired, sending a whirlwind slamming into him, knocking him a good distance away!
The warrior Dais had to contend with swung his Mace at Dais, who countered with his Morning Star, and caused the two weapons to become tangled. Dais pulled his opponent towards him and whacked him with his nunchaku, and then managed to free himself from the entanglement. He readied his weapon for another go, only to find not one, but a dozen Daises surrounding him! He began rotating his mace, sending a rock at one, which passed through it before fading away.
"Fool. You're no match for my illusions." Dais said.
"Show yourself, you coward!" he demanded.
He launched another, only to miss again.
"Another miss! Care to try again?" Dais said.
Suddenly a bolt of energy came from the other warrior, which hit the true Dais and caused the fakes to vanish, and Dais to fall before the other three.
"These guys should be lying on the ground begging for mercy!" Sekhmet said.
"I think now would be a good time to use the phone." Kale said.
"Right." Anubis said.
He checked his armor for it, but could not find it!
"Slag! I must have left it back at the mansion." Anubis shouted.
"Well, it's been nice knowing you guys." Kale said.
"We're not done yet. Dais, get ready. Sekhmet, be ready with your blades." Anubis said.
Kale fired his claw, sending each point towards a different opponent, disarming them.
"What in the name of Lugh?" they said.
"Let us show them how we do things here in Toyama." Anubis said, readying his kasari-gama.
He ricocheted off the walls at breakneck speed, until he was above their opponents, and began twirling his kama.
"Quake With Fear!" he shouted, throwing the end into the ground. Seconds later a flurry of Chains erupted from the ground, knocking their opponents into the air.
"Web of Deception!" Dais shouted, firing the ends of his Chi Lin Tou. They amazingly flew right by the targets and hit the walls of the buildings, creating a giant web which secured the attackers.
"My Turn." Sekhmet said. He placed his swords before him, and grabbed one. It transformed into a whip of energy as he shouted "Snake Fang Strike!" He lashed out at them, destroying the web and knocking their opponents for a loop.
"That should take care of them." Anubis said as he alighted.
Remarkably the five warriors got back up and stepped into the light, revealing themselves to be:
"It has finally been confirmed. These are the warriors we were sent to destroy." Ivar said.
"As if there was any doubt." Angus added.
"This should be easy." Garrett added.
"Let's just get this over with and report back to Shuki." Deirdre added.
"Agreed." Rohan said.
"We'd like to point out to you guys that we've already destroyed many others of your kind." Anubis said.
"More Sabanians! Good, I was getting bored listening to the Ronins whine." Kale added.
"As was I." Sekhmet said.
"I was just wondering, what is that makes you guys think that you have, what's the word I'm looking for..." Dais began.
"A Chance?" Sekhmet said.
"Exactly. Thank you Sekhmet. A chance of beating us?" Dais said.
As if in answer the five took their weapons and held them above their heads.
"Fire Within Me!" Rohan shouted.
"Earth Beneath Me!" Angus added.
"Air Above Me!" Deirdre said.
"Water Around Me!" Ivar added.
"Forest Before Me!" Garrett finished.
In a matter of seconds the five warriors were outfitted in armor.
"What do you think of that?" Angus boasted.
"You call that armor?" Anubis said.
"You call that a summoning sequence?" Kale said.
"You Sabanians have a great deal to learn." Sekhmet added.
"May we have your name, so that we may place it on your tombstone when we're finished with you?" Dais asked.
"We are the Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog!" Rohan declared.
"You fools and your fiberglass armor are going down faster than that accursed ship." Anubis said.
The Mystic Knights were puzzled by his remark.
"Never mind." Anubis said, readying his weapon. The other three did the same.
"Quake With Fear!" Anubis shouted.
"Black Lighting Slash!" Kale Shouted.
"Snake Fang Strike!" Sekhmet shouted.
"Web of Deception!" Dais added.
The four attacks slammed into the Knights, but failed to harm them!
"What on Earth? Usually when we do that it blasts them into a billion pieces." Anubis said.
The Knights retaliated by firing their weapons at them. The Warlords were unfazed.
"Oh Please." Anubis said.
The four reached back and punched them in the face, knocking them back.
"These guys are tough!" Angus said.
"Yes. Let's try the Battle Gauntlets." Rohan said.
The five aimed at the Ronins with their gauntlets, sending blasts of energy into them, knocking them over. Anubis got up, angrier than before.
(Just Communication kicks up)
"I have had enough of these fools!" Anubis shouted.
"I agree. I think it is time for us to bring out the heavy artillery." Dais said.
"But what about the Royalties we're already paying for DBZ?" Kale reminded them.
"We cannot worry about that now. We can do that after we've finished pounding these Gaelic fools into submission." Sekhmet said.
"Right." The others said.
"Armor of Deathscythe! Tao Chu!"
"Armor of the Epyon! Tao Ko!
"Armor of the Ashura! Tao Tei!"
"Armor of the Virsago! Tao Nin!"
The four shed their White Neo Armors, which were quickly replaced by their Mecha Armors.
"By Dahgda! What are those?" Rohan wondered.
"Your worst nightmare." Anubis said.
The four began going into kata motions as the Knights prepared themselves for the incoming onslaught.
"Quake With Fear!" Anubis shouted.
"Black Lightning Slash!" Kale shouted.
"Snake Fang Strike!" Sekhmet added.
"Web of Deception!" Dais added.
The attacks slammed into the Knights, succeeding in taking out a good portion of the surrounding buildings, but failed to get a hit on them.
"You'll pay for that!" Rohan shouted.
"Please, put it on our bill." Anubis said.
Rohan was unamused and held his sword before him.
"Battle Fury!" He shouted.
In a matter of seconds his Mystic Armor of Fire was souped up. He grabbed his weapon, the Dragon Torch, and blasted the four with it, succeeding in knocking them away. Surprisingly the Warlords were weakened by this assault. The Knights then combined their firepower and blasted again, succeeding in knocking the Warlords out of armor.
"What? How could those accursed weaklings do this?" Anubis wondered.
"We should fall back. They could destroy us in our weakened and unarmored state." Dais said.
"But a samurai does not run! He lives to die honorably in battle!" Kale shouted.
"True, but a samurai does not do so recklessly. He gives his life so that others may live." Sekhmet reminded him.
"Agreed. We should regroup." Anubis said.
The Warlords limped off in pain as the Knights vanished from sight. Minutes later the four of them managed to enter Mia's place, where the Ronins had surprisingly calmed down.
"What happened to you guys?" Rowen asked.
"We got attacked by Sabanians." Kale said.
"They creamed us." Sekhmet added.
Which caused the five to stare at them in disbelief.
"We most likely would have won," Anubis said angrily, " if it was not for a quintet of whiny samurai moping around a mansion over the loss of their girlfriends!" he shouted.
Which caused the Ronins to begin bawling again as Anubis stomped upstairs.
The Dark Warlords have fought against the Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog, and have failed to defeat them, even with their mighty Mecha Armor. Are they loosing their touch? What will it take to bring them down? All this and more on the next exciting episode of Ronin Warriors vs. Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog.
