Hey, here's a new fic by me. I don't own the Ronin Warriors either. What a shame it is... Oh well.

~~~Prologue
"No, he's still alive! I swear I saw him!" the brunette teen yelled as she started pacing.
"You're seeing things, Cari, he's dead. The others even said so themselves," the male teen said, sounding a little annoyed.
"Looks like they don't agree on something," Sage said slowly, watching the teens from across the street.
"Yeah…" Cye said softly.
"No!" Cari yelled. "He's alive, I swear it! Wildfire is still alive! The other Ronins are stupid to have left him for dead. How could Wildfire be killed in a fire?" Cari screamed before storming off, waving her arms around in frustration.
Kento stopped dead in his tracks wide eyed and paling rapidly. "Ryo's alive?" he whispered.
"I say we go ask her what she knows about Ryo," Rowan stated before quickly crossing the street to chase after the teen.
When they caught up to Cari, they found she was already being questioned by another. A raven haired teen with violet eyes stood before Cari, looking extremely determined to get some answers.
"You said back there that Wildfire is still alive, how do you know that?" the young woman asked.
"I saw him. He was running, a white tiger was right next to him," Cari explained, still sounding very much annoyed.
"How can you be so certain that it was him?" she questioned.
Cari sighed in frustration and stomped a foot against the pavement, "Because of the armor and his attack. He had two swords with him and used Wildfire's 'flare up now' attack. Who else could it possibly be?"
The raven haired teen thought for a moment. "Why wouldn't the other Ronin Warriors know he was still alive? Why would they leave him for dead?"
"Because they're stupid? I don't know, maybe he didn't want them to know he was alive."
"Maybe…" the woman thought some more. "Where did you see him? And when?"
"Just outside town, that way," Cari pointed to the east. "He was headed towards the mountains, yesterday."
"Thanks," the raven haired girl said before taking off towards the mountains.
"He's alive?" Kento repeated his earlier question, eyes wide once again; causing Cari to face them.
"Who are you guys?" she asked, slightly startled.
"It looks that way, Kento. Two things just don't make sense though," Rowan said, brows furrowed, while ignoring Cari.
"What's that?" Cye asked.
"Why did our armors let us believe he was dead and who was that?" Sage answered before Rowan could. "She seemed to be really interested in Ryo's whereabouts."
"Yeah, I think we need to find him before she does," Rowan said, switching over to his sub armor. The others quickly followed suit.
"Oh, shit," Cari whispered, slowly backing away. "You're them, you're the Ronin Warriors."
