Chapter 1
The Battle We Didn't Win
Five battered, beaten, exhausted, bleeding young men all clad in ancient samurai style metal armor, each a different color, stood in various places around the forest, which became the battle field, trying to hold their own and losing.
These five young men were the Ronin Warriors; the five young men that stopped Tulpa from trying to take over the earth only two years ago, and then did it again and managed to free the three remaining warlords and Lady Kayura. The five young men that put their lives in the line of fire for the world...were doing it again.
The enemy was over three hundred monsters all alike in some ways, with their purple fish scaly skin, blood red eyes and long claws on each hand; the difference were that some had long tails with a sharp blade at the end and others had spikes at the end of their tails. Some carried clubs, others carried axes, some of them carried some kind of laser guns.
The ones that didn't have any of these features were the ones flying in the sky. They were more bat mixed with dragon. They had the large dragon features, but were covered in fur and had long pointy teeth able to tear a cow in two with a single touch. Their arms may have been weak and frail, but their strong talons made up for the weakness.
Kento's staff flew from his hands by the force of Rowen's arrow, which was thrown off by the enemy. The metal stick flew a few feet away from its owner and then skid a couple of more before it stopped near the edge of the cliff. With a curse, Kento rolled out of the way of a punch delivered by one of the many monsters he was fighting and started a mad dash from the weapon; jumping over trees and dodging blasts of energy sent by the enemy. He was almost there and jumped for the staff when a blast from one the creatures with a gun shot it off into the deep, seemingly endless canyon.
"SHIT!" Kento exclaimed. He punched the ground and looked down into the canyon for any sign of his weapon. "I'm shit out of luck, guys!" He jolted to his feet and kicked one of the spiked tail monsters into the canyon.
Rowen jumped into the air and stayed suspended as he launch a volley of arrows down at the creatures that couldn't reach him. His only mistake was that he had forgot about the flying ones circling in the air and one slammed into his back. He cried out in agony as he hit the ground. He moaned as he slowly pushed himself to his feet trying to wash away the fatigue and pain as he did so. `Get up, Rowen!' He shouted to himself. He had made it to his knees when he lost balanced under the weight of four of the monsters. They has all jumped on him and were getting the best of him in his condition.
Cye countered a blow by a blade tailed creature's ax with his own trident. Blood was running from under his helmet and to make it worst his was hurting like a horrible train accident. He booted the creature into a few of its friends and did a 180 turn just in time to take off the head of another one coming from behind. Once he got the dead body off his trident he hopped back a few times and pulled his trident to his side, giving it a quick twirl as he did. A single water droplet formed in the center blade of the trident and then rapidly started forming into more and more droplets.
"SUPER WAVE SMASSSSSSHER!" He exclaimed. Instantly those few droplets of water became a large tidal wave and it drowned all the creatures in front of Cye. Once he was done though, he dropped to one knee to catch his breath. The battle had been going on for so long and he had done his attack more than once. He was weak, but he knew he had to stay up and keep on fighting. The world was depending on it.
"FLARE UP NOW!" Ryo summoned once again. He launched himself into the sky and fired his attack downward at the monsters below. He noted, just to keep himself from losing hope, that this was the fourth time he had done his sure-kill. He also noted, to also remind himself that the battle way far from over, that the monsters he killed were simply replaced by more.
He landed on the ground and didn't even have to time to pull his swords apart before a spiked tail monster launched at him. He shoved his spear sword into its stomach killing it on the spot and then, kicked it off and pulled his swords apart. He gave his head a shake as his vision became blurred and then jumped right back into battle.
Sage skid till he hit a tree. Good thing, he relief himself, he had a helmet on. His armor was worn and his helmet was cracked from the impact of the tree. He was just waiting for when it all just fell off on the ground and became a piece of scrapped metal. Two of the creatures punched the side of his armor leaving a nice fairly size hole, and another one wouldn't stop stabbing at his thigh till it got through. Needless to say, both spots were bleeding and making life harder for the warrior of Halo.
He jabbed his sword into the ground and used it to stand up. He pulled it out and was getting ready to fight again when a club hit him in the head, again. He turned around and sliced the creature in half. From the impact of that last hit, Sage's helmet cracked completely and fell to the ground in three pieces. "Great," he muttered, slicing two more blade tailed monsters up, "just what I need, no helmet."
To make things worst Kento came flying into Sage and they both rolled off into the canyon. Kento managed to grip the edge and hang on with one hand while he held Sage's hand with his other.
His armor and body was in the same condition as Sage's. Cracks and scratches covered it. Blood was still coming out of some of the wounds, while others had stopped. His worst wound was right above his liver. If he hadn't been wearing the armor, it would have been his liver.
"Hang on, Sage. I'll try to pull us up."
Sage nodded, then winced when some of his wounds started aching again.
"AHH!" Kento exclaimed as he lost his grip due to a monster slamming their club on his fingers. Both him and Sage fell into dark canyon.
Cye and Ryo both strained against the chains they were entangled in. Both were about to do a double team when the got ambushed by monsters they didn't even know were even here and were tied up. Rowen was being held in the air by one of the bat/dragon creatures and they hadn't seen Sage or Kento for awhile.
"Well...well...well." A sinister voiced echoed. A flash of purplish-black light erupted from a spot near Wildfire and Torrent and they opened their eyes, still restraining the pain to see who it was.
There stood a man standing about six feet seven inches wearing a black dress suit. He had dark, black, wavy hair and midnight blue eyes. He had a pale complexion that went well with his muscular body. If not for the two fangs in his mouth and the black velvet wings wrapped around his body, he would human.
"Maximillion..." Ryo growled.
"Yes, Wildfire, it is I." he replied in a pleasant tone, used to greet friends and not enemies. "How does it feel to lose?"
"We haven't lost yet!" Ryo exclaimed, he and Cye pulled their strength together and broke out of the chains. "Inferno, now!"
"Armor of Torrent! Toa Shin!" Cye called. His armor glowed a bright blue color and it escaped and went at Ryo.
Rowen cracked his eye open just the slightest as he hung, by his shoulders, from the bat creature that held him. His armor had told him that he needed to give his power to Ryo and that's just what he was going to do. "Armor of Strata! Toa Innochi!"
From down in the canyon, Sage and Kento both shifted the slightest before opening their eyes. They too had the feeling from their armors that they needed to power up.
"Armor of Hardrock! Toa Gi!" Kento summoned.
"Armor of Halo! Toa Chi!" Sage followed right after.
Both armors started to glow, Sage's green; Kento's orange and the lights flew from their armors up and out the canyon.
Ryo started to glow red. "Armor of Wildfire! Toa Jin!" The wildfire armor was banished back to where it came from. "ARMOR OF INFERNO! TOA JIN!" The five lights swirl together and changed into a silver color. This light then swirled around Ryo and his red and white sub-armor changed to a gray one. White shin pads snapped on his feet over the armor and the same thing happen to his hands. Once that was done, his whole body was consumed by flames and he erupted out of them clad in the full white inferno armor.
White Blaze, who appeared to have been missing at the time, showed up and flames consumed his body as well. He was now Black Blaze clad in the white armor and held the Fevor Swords on his back. He jumped over Ryo's head and landed next to his master's side. Ryo pulled the swords out and readied himself.
Ryo started twirling the swords around and in smooth motions. "FEVOR FLARE!" He exclaimed. A attack made of energy and fire the same escape the double blades and with the great power eliminated every single monster on the ground still standing. All but one and that one was Maximillion.
Maximillion clapped from his position now in the air. "Very good, very good indeed."
Ryo looked up at the enemy in a haze of exhaustion. Not long after the glance the young warrior collapsed. Cye ran over to him, but didn't make. Maximillion released a large powerful ball of energy at the ronin sending him skidding some yards away, unconscious.
"Pack em' up, boys, its time to go." Maximillion ordered the still flying creatures. Four of them obeyed and flew below and gathered the fallen warriors. Maximillion opened a portal and floated inside with the remaining creatures behind him. Instantly the portal closed afterwards.

White shin pads snapped on his feet over the armor and the same thing happen to his hands. Once that was done, his whole body was consumed by flames and he erupted out of them clad in the full white inferno armor.
